Daddy, not my necklace!” Jenny said. “But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her? You gave her to me last year for my birthday.

But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her? She’s my favorite.”“No, that’s okay,” her father said and brushed her cheek again witha kiss. “God bless you, little one.

An Unforgettable ChildhoodD.A Pearl NecklaceBThe composing career (作曲生涯) of Albert Roussel got off to a changeable start, and received one of its biggest successes from a lie.Roussel became an orphan (孤儿) at the age of eight and went to live with his grandfather. He built on the music he had learned from his mother, entertaining himself by reading through the family music collection and playing operatic selections and popular songs on the piano. Three years later Roussel’s grandfather died, and his mother's sister took him in. Her husbandarranged for young Albert to take piano lessons. Summer vacations at a Belgian seaside added a second love to his life — the sea. He studied to be a soldier in the navy, but still made time to study music.In the French Navy, he and two friends found time to play the music of Beethoven and other composers. Roussel also began composing. At the Church of the Trinity in Cherbourg on Christmas Day 1892, he had his first public appearance as a composer. That success encouraged Roussel to write a wedding march, and one of his fellow naval officers offered to show it to a famous conductor, Edouard Colonne. When Roussel’s friend returned with the manuscript (手稿), he reported that Colonne had advised Roussel to give up his naval career and devote his life to music.Not long afterward, at the age of 2S, Roussel did just that. He applied the qualities that he had developed in the navy to his composing and became a major force in twentieth century French music. As for Edouard Colonne’s inspiring advice that Roussel should devote his life to music, Roussel's naval friend later admitted that he had made it up and that he had never even shown Roussel’ s manuscript to the conductor.25. What information can we get from the second paragraph?A. Albert came to love the sea after summer vacations at the seaside .B. Albert's aunt arranged for him to take piano lessons.C.

Roussel’s grandfather.B. Roussel's aunt.C. Albert’s naval friend.D. Edouard Colonne.CChina’s new term, tuhao, may be in next year’s Oxford EnglishDictionary. The word caught the attention of the dictionary's editing team after BBC’s recent program on influential Chinese words. “If its influence continues, it is very likely to appear on our updated list of words,” said Julie Kleeman, project manager with the editing team.In Chinese tu means uncouth (笨拙的) and hao means rich. It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw their weight around in China’s countryside. The word became more popular in September with the launch of Apple’s new gold-colored iPhone, which is loved by China’s rich people. The color became known as “tuhao gold.” The word is now also used by the online community to refer to people who have the cash but lack the class to go with it. Kleeman also mentioned two other Chinese words —dama and hukou— which may also make it into the dictionary.People can have an intuitive (直观的) grasp of the meanings if they see pinyin, Kleeman said, adding that people avoid using an English word to keep the original meaning.“We have nearly 120 Chinese-linked words now in Oxford English Dictionary,” she said. Some of them are: Guanxi, which means “connection”; Taikonaut, a mix of taikong, meaning outer space, and astronaut.The new words will be first uploaded on the official websitebefore the dictionaries arrive. The online version is also renewed every three months. “It at least broke our old rules. It used to take 10 years to include a new word but now we keep the pace with the time,” according to a statement from ex-chief-editor John Simpson.29. Which of the following statements is true according to the text?A. Dama and hukou have made it into Oxford English dictionary.B. Some influential Chinese words appeared on one of BBC’s recent programs.C. tuhao refers to people who have both the cash and the class.D. John Simpson thinks that it is not good to break old rules.30. What does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean?A Go on a diet. B. Get ready to help others.C. Give orders to others.D. Put on weight.31. Tuhao becomes more popular in September partly because ______.A. it is very likely to appear in Oxford English DictionaryB. Apple launched a new gold-colored iPhoneC. people use Chinese pinyin to keep the original meaningD. it is often used by the online community32. The main idea of the text is that ______.A. Oxford English Dictionary Includes new words faster than beforeB. sometimes pinyin makes Chinese words better understoodC. tuhao has a new meaning at the present timeD. tuhao may end up in Oxford English Dictionary.DPilling a cat can be a 'terrible” experience. Cats don’t want something pushed down their throats, and they’ll fight with all their strength to prevent it. In fact, it’s amazing how powerful their small bodies can be.The easiest way of pilling a cat is to press the pill into powder. Then mix the powder with a small amount of wet food. If your cat usually eats dry food, she will probably view the wet food as a treat and eat it up.If your cat won’t eat the wet food that contains the pill or if she is too ill to eat, you can get a “pill gun”. There are some basic instructions. Getting your cat’s mouth to open is going to be the most difficult part. First, be sure the pill is in a handy place. Then you can put your cat on a bookshelf with her bottom in a corner or you can put her on your lap firmly tied. Have your cat facing to the right if you’re right-handed. With your left hand, hold your cat at the cheekbones, putting your palm (手掌) at the top of her head. Keeping your finger off the trigger (扳机), with your right hand, Insert the pill gun until the pill is positioned over the tongue and open throat Be sure to give your cat a treat directly after giving the pill.If you don’t feel comfortable using a pill gun, you can try giving the pill by hand. Push your cat’s head backwards just far enough so that her nose is pointing towards the ceiling. At this point, most cats will slightly open their mouths. With the little finger or ring finger of the hand holding the pill, open the bottom jaw a little more. You may need to hold her top jaw with your other hand while doing this. Aim straight and lightly throw the pill or drop it. Most cats will then swallow the pill.33. Pilling a cat can be a terrible experience because cats ______.A. are amazingly powerful and dangerousB. may fight with all their strength against pillsC. refuse something pressed down their throatsD. are difficult to treat once they’ve got ill34. Which of the following statements is true according to the second paragraph?A. Wet food with medicine is usually a treat to cats.B. Cats arc most likely interested in something new.C. The easiest pilling is to press the pill into powder.D. Cats used to dry food must reject wet food.35. Using a “pill gun”, you had better hold your cat ______ if you’re left-handed.A. facing to the rightB. on your lap firmlyC. at the headD. . with your right hand三、信息匹配（七选五）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
安徽省巢湖市柘皋中学高中高中英语阅读理解知识点和相关练习试题
一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解It was the beginning of 2011. I had just finished filming the first season of Game of Thrones(《权利的游戏》). With almost no professional experience, I had been given the role of Daenerys Targaryen. The show was so successful that young girls would dress themselves up as Daenerys for Halloween.And yet, terrified of the attention, terrified of trying to make good on the faith that the creators had put in me, I worked much harder.On the morning of February 11, 2011, I was getting dressed in a gym when I started to feel a bad headache. I was so exhausted that I could barely put on my sneakers. I tried to ignore the pain, but I couldn't. I reached the toilet and sank to my knees. A woman came to help me. Then everything became unclear. I only remember the sound of an ambulance.That operation lasted three hours. When I woke, the pain was unbearable. After four days, they moved me out of the I.C.U. (重症监护室). But one day when a nurse asked me, as part of a series of cognitive (认知的) exercises, " What's your name?", I couldn't remember my name and I felt terrified: I am an actor; I need to remember my lines. Now, I couldn't recall my name.The phenomenon is called aphasia. Then I was sent back to the I.C.U. and, after about a week, I was able to speak and know my name. And I was also aware that there were people in the beds around me who didn't make it out of the I.C.U. I was continually reminded of just how fortunate I was.I rarely gave a thought to my health. Nearly all I thought about was acting. I thought of myself as healthy. Once in a while, I would get dizzy. When I was fourteen, I had a migraine (偏头痛) that kept me in bed for a couple of days. But it all seemed manageable — part of the stress of being an actor. Now I think I might have been experiencing warning signs of what was to come.Anyway, there is something pleasant about coming to the end of Thrones. And I'm so happy to be here to see the beginning of whatever comes next.（1）The author felt terrified after acting in the first season of Game of Thrones because _____.①she felt nervous about the public attention.②she had been criticized for her lack of experience.③she was experiencing some warning signs of a serious illness.④she wasn't sure if she had perform ed well in Season 1.A. ①④B. ②③C. ①②D. ③④（2）When did the author lose consciousness?A. After she took an operation.B. After a woman came to her rescue in a gym.C. When trying to ignore a headache while working out.D. When knowing many patients wouldn't survive the illness.（3）A patient who is suffering from aphasia ______.A. cannot move his or her bodyB. will fall into serious depressionC. must undergo brain surgery at onceD. is not able to remember things from the past （4）What can you infer from the end of the passage?A. The author feels very lucky to be an actress.B. The author is quite confident about her role.C. The author can't go on acting due to the illness.D. The author will pay more attention to her health.【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）D（4）D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者讲述了自己在作为一名演员对待工作非常认真努力却忽视了自己的身体健康，直到有一天她晕倒并进了重症病房接受治疗，她才意识到要重视身体健康。

The curious child reached up to grab the wire of a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water over her tiny infant frame.Her mother Ruby turned around and, seeing Ammie horribly burnt, called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital. Twenty percent of Ammie’s body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree. There, using tissue(组织) taken from unburned areas of Ammie’s body, doctors performed co mplex skin transplants(移植) to close her wounds and control her injuries, an operation that took about six hours. Over the next 16 years, Ammie underwent 12 more operations to repair her body.When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age 4, other pup ils made cruel comments or simply wouldn’t play with her. “I was the only burned child in the street, the class and the school,” she recalled, “some children refused to become friends because of that.”Today, aged 17, Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars; pain is a permanent part of her body. She still has to have two further skin transplants. Yet she is a confident, outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burn s victims.She is a member of the Scottish Burn ed Children’s Club, a charity set up last year. This month, Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Center in Cambridge shire for the charity’s first summer camp. “I ’ll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others,” she s ays. Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops, and she plans to show the youngsters at the summer camp that they can too. “I do not go to great lengths to hide my burns scars,” she says, “I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago.”【1】What did other children do when Ammie first went to school?A．They were friendly to her.B．They showed sympathy to her.C．They were afraid of her.D．They looked down upon her.【2】Ammie will teach the younger children at the Graffham Water Center to___________.A．face others’ unkindness bravely B．hide their scars by proper dressingC．live a normal life D．recover quickly【3】What does the underlined word “permanent” in the 4t h paragraph mean?A．necessary B．life-longC．difficult D．important【4】What can be the best title of the passage?A．A Seriously Burned Girl SurvivesB．Ways to Get Rid of Unkind StaresC．Permanent Scars And Pain For a GirlD．A seriously burned angel of Hope4.Attitudes to AIDS NowMost people say that the USA is making progress in fighting AIDS, but they don't know there's no cure and strongly disagree that "the AIDS epidemic(传染病) is over," a new survey finds.The findings, released Thursday by the Kaiser Family Foundation, reassure activists who have worried that public concern about AIDS might disappear in light of recent news about advances in treatment and declines in deaths."While people are very optimistic about the advances, they're still realistic about the fact that there is no cure" says Sophia Chang, director of HIV programs at the foundation.The Kaiser survey, like a recent USA TODAY Gallup Poll, does find that the number of people ranking AIDS as the country's top health problem has fallen. In the Kaiser Poll, 38% say it's the top concern, down from 44% in a 1996 poll; in the Gallup Poll, 29% say AIDS is No.1, down from 41% in 1992 and 67% in 1987.Other findings from Kaiser, which polled more than 1,200 adults in September and October and asked additional questions of another 1,000 adults in November:52% say the country is making progress against AIDS, up from 32% in 1995.51% say the government spends too little on AIDS. 86% correctly say AIDS drugs can now lengthen lives; an equal number correctly say that the drugs are not cures.67% incorrectly say that AIDS deaths increased or stayed the same in the past year; 24% know deaths fell. Daniel Zingale, director of AIDS Action Council, says, "I'm encouraged that the American people are getting th e message that the AIDS epidemic isn't over. I hope the decision-makers in Washington are getting the same message … We have seen signs of complacency.【1】What do activists worry about?A．Recent news about AIDS is not true.B．Advances in AIDS treatment are too slow.C．Deaths caused by AIDS may not decline.D．People may stop worrying about AIDS【2】According to the passage, people's attitude toward the cure of AIDS isA．optimistic.B．hopelessC．pessimistic.D．realistic【3】The Gallup Poll shows that the number of people___________.A．who suffer from the worst disease -- AIDS has fallen.B．who think AIDS is the country's top health killer has fallen.C．who worry about AIDS and health problems has fallen.D．who think AIDS threatens the countryside has fallen.【4】According to the Kaiser Poll, which of the following is NOT Correct?A．The country is making progress against AIDS.B．More and more people die of AIDS now.C．AIDS drugs can now make people live longer.D．AIDS drugs still cannot save people's lives.二、其他How to Improve Vocabulary FastYour vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with. We should learn some ways to expand it. Read every day. 【1】 Choose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know.【2】. If you do not meet with an unfamiliar word in your daily reading, use your dictionary to search for one. Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word. Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary, you must be able to use it in speech.Elaborate(详尽阐述)on the meaning of the word. If you have just l earned that the word “stubborn” , think about the neighbor who will not lend you his car.【3】Use your new word in speech and in writing. E-mail your sister about how your cat is stubborn about sleeping on your pillow.【4】 But the more you use it, the more fluent you will become in its use. Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary.Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary. Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is.【5】. The more you explain the meaning of a word to someone, the more likely you are to remember it.A．Find a new word every day.B．The vocabulary can be increased.C．Your vocabulary contains the words you understand.D．The more often you read, the faster your vocabulary can grow.E. Or let them ask for the definition of a new word you have used.F. Imagine him shaking his head, and think of him as “stubborn in his refusal”.G. The first time you use a new word in speech it may seem strange.三、完形填空We didn’t have a lot of money wh en I was little, so Mum had to ______my fringe(刘海) herself.

He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never shouted at us for playing in his yard. I remembered him as a neighbor who was nicer than anyone else in the neighborhood.When Dr. Gibbs was happy, he was planting trees. And his life’s goal was to make it a forest. Dr. Gibbs had some interesting theories about planting. He talked about trees that weren’t watered would grow deep roots in search of water. So he never watered his trees. He planted an oak (橡树) and, instead of watering it every morning, he beat it with the rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.Dr. Gibbs died a couple of years. Every now and again, I walk by his house and look at the trees that he planted twenty-five y ears ago. They’re very strong now.I planted a couple of trees a few years later. I watered them regularly and took good care of them.

Planting trees is good for the environment.3.（8分）New law lets students sleep inWhen your alarm clock rings and you drag yourself out of bed, you probably wonder: Why on earth does school have to start so early?Fortunately, there is a new law to back you up―or better still, science.A law in California, passed on Oct 13, requires that public middle schools begin classes no earlier than 8:00 am and that high schools start no earlier than 8:30 am. The law will go into effect by July 1, 2022.Starting school at 8:00 or 8:30 in the morning may not sound like too big of a change, but it could mean one more hour of sleep for students who used to start school at 7:30 or even earlier.“The e ffect of that one hour is something they will be feeling as 40-year-old adults,” Sumit Bhargava, a sleep expert at Stanford University told The New York Times. He said that not having enough sleep can affect students’ mental health and increase the risk of getting fat and diabetes (糖尿病).In the short run, students’ school performances should improve almost immediately. Kyla Wahlstrom, a researcher at the University of Minnesota’s College of Education, found that students who have enough sleep are more alert (机敏的) in class and get better grades.Some might say that urging students to go to bed earlier could have been a much easier solution than changing the school timetable across an entire state. But according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, teenagers go through biological changes when they enter puberty (青春期), which makes it difficult for them to fall asleep before 11: 00 pm. So when school starts at 8: 00 or earlier, they can hardly get the ideal 8.5-9.5 hours of sleep that experts suggest they need to do their best in the daytime.This is why when the new law came out, its author, Anthony Portantino, said, “Generations of children will come to appreciate ( 感激) this historic day and our governor for taking bold action.1.When should public high schools start classes according to the California’s new law?A.No earlier than 8:30 am..B.No earlier than 8:00 am.C.No earlier than 7:30 am.D.No earlier than 9:00 am.2.What can we learn from Bhargava’s words?A. The amount of sleep people need changes with age.B. Lack of sleep could lead to health problems.C. Lack of sleep affects adults more than children.D. Sleep problems are one of the leading causes of diabetes3.What do we know about teenagers’ sleep patterns?A. Ideally, they need eight hours of sleep a night..B. Less sleep is needed when they enter pubertyC. They often wake up at midnight due to biologicalD. They may have difficulty falling asleep before11.pm4.Where does this passage probably come from?A. A n ewspaperB. A b iographyC. A textbookD. An advertisement4.（8分）Many people have long dreamed of being able to fly around as simply as riding a bicycle. Yet the safety and strength of a flying bike was always a big problem. Over the past 10 years，development in technology has moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality. Now，two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon.The British company Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype(原型) of its flying bicycle. Grant Stapleton，marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics，says the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly.“It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed，” he adds.Mr. Stapleton says safety was the company’s main concern. He says the designers solved the safety issue by using overlapping rotors(交叠式旋翼) to power the vehicle.The company is testing a fullsize prototype of the Hoverbike，which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams.In New Zealand，the Martin Aircraft Company is also testing a fullsize prototype of its personal flying device，called Jetpack(喷气背包).It can fly for more than 30 minutes，up to 1,000 meters high and reach a speed of 74 kilometers per hour.Peter Coker is the CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said Jetpack “is built around safety from the start”.In his words，“reliability is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself，very sim ilar to a Formula One racing car.”Jetpack uses a gasolinepowered engine that produces two powerful jet streams. Mr Coker says it also has a parachute(降落伞) that can be used should there be an emergency. “It starts to work at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot，” he adds. Mr Coker says Jetpack will be ready for sale soon.1.We can learn from the passage that the Hoverbike __________.A. has been used by the police and emergency rescue teamsB. can be transported quickly after being folded and packedC. can hardly get in and out of small spaces quicklyD. can fly for over 30 minutes，up to 1,000 meters high2.The writer uses the example of Formula One racing car to show that .A.Jetpack’s engine is powerfulB.Jetpack is very safe and reliableC.Jetpack’s actual structure is uniqueD.Jetpack can reach a great speed and height3.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to “ ”.A.the parachuteB.the engineC.JetpackD.the jet stream4.What is th e author’s main purpose of writing the passage?A.To describe the problems of inventing flying vehicles.B.To show the differences between the two personal flying vehicles..C.To introduce the latest development of flying vehicles.D.To advertise the two personal flying vehicles.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）5.（10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1,000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1,000 great smiles just as warm and friendly. As he left the house, he thought to himself, “This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit often.”In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1,000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled（咆哮） at them and was horrified to see 1,000 little dogs growling back at him.

It was addressed simply “Resident, 5104 Northumberland Road.”I opened the envelope and took out a Thank You card. I opened the card and read the message which really caught me by surprise.The card said：“Thank you for the lovely fruit basket you left on the porch of Richard Kelly. It was very thoughtful. Richard Kelly passed away less than a month ago. He never stopped talking about how nice it was that someone remembered him in his time of illness. He really appreciated it.”I was sincerely moved.

一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解A home science experiment recently took the world by storm. Two teens from Toronto, in Canada, sent a Lego man rising above the Earth and captured their tiny astronaut's trip on film.Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad, both 17, used a weather balloon to launch their plastic lego model 16 miles above the Earth. This is inside a part of Earth's atmosphere.The two teens were inspired by a similar project performed by students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT). The MIT students had launched a weather balloon with a camera into near space and taken many unusual images of the Earth. Mathew and Asad then spend four months figuring out how to launch their own spacecraft into the space.Travelling to space is expensive for NASA, but Mathew and Asad worked hard to keep their costs down. They bought much of their equipment used and even sewed the Lego man's parachute by hand. In total, the project cost only$400."We had a lot of anxiety on launch day because there were high winds when we were going up," Mathew told reporters. They had to pump extra helium(氦)into the balloon so that it would rise quickly and avoid being blown too far off course by the strong winds.The toy astronaut's journey lasted 97 minutes before the balloon broke and he fell back to Earth. Mathew and Asad then spent two weekends looking for their spacecraft. It had landed 76miles away from the launch site.The student scientists are currently finishing up their final year of high school and applying for colleges. They are also looking into more do-it-yourself space projects."I guess the sky is not really the limit anymore," Mathew told reporters. "We never knew we'd get this far. It's been a lesson for us that hard work pays off."（1）By saying "took the world by storm" in the first paragraph, the writer meant the experiment______________.A. destroyed the worldB. flooded the worldC. fascinated the worldD. managed the world（2）Which of the following about the students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is right?A.They were examples for Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad.B.They helped Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad to achieve dream.C.They launched weather balloon together with Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad.D.They studied with Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad in the same school.（3）How did Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad keep their costs down?A.By sewing the weather balloon themselves.B.By borrowing spacecraft from the MIT students.C.By making their spacecraft by hand.D.By using second-hand equipment.（4）What problems did Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad have on launch day?A.They ran out of helium.B.The wind was too strong.C.The balloon suddenly broke.D.Their spacecraft was blown away.【答案】（1）C（2）A（3）D（4）B【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。

AActress Hayden Panettiere recently got into trouble with Japanese fishermen as she tried to stop them from killing dolphins.The 18-year-old star with some other surfers sailed out to reach the dolphins in order to stop them from being driven into a nearby pool and killed, but the six surfers, from Australia and the United States, were stopped by a fishing boat before they could reach them. The fishermen blocked their way with a boathook (钩篙). It was an ugly, unfriendly and life-threatening struggle before the surfers were forced to return to the beach. It is believed that the dolphins were later taken into a pool and killed.Panettiere, who is a brave surfer and loyal animal protector, made up her mind to save the dolphins of Japan and said, "It was really frightening. Some of us were hit by the boathook, but in the end all we were really worried about was the dolphins. It was so sad. We were so close to them and they were jumping out of the water to see us." Breaking down in tears, she added, "One little baby dolphin stuck his head out and looked at me and the thought that it’s no longer with us is really hard to take."The surfers left the country to avoid arrest (逮捕)by the Japanese police. Panettiere isnow back in Los Angeles.More than 22,000 dolphins are killed by fishermen in Japan every year. Many Japanese believe dolphins should be treated like fish. They have been hunting dolphins for centuries and see any criticism (批评) of this as an attack on their culture.21. Why did the surfers get into trouble with the fishermen in Japan?A. They said something that hurt the fishermen.B. They enter ed a pool which wasn’t allowed to go into.C. They attacked Japanese culture.D. They tried to stop the fishermen from killing the dolphins.22. From Paragraph 3, we can learn that Panettiere ________.A. was really frightened and sadB. succeeded in saving the dolphinsC. cried when they were hit by the boathookD. didn’t like the Japanese fishermen23. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. What Happened While Surfing in JapanB. Hayden Panettiere Cried in the Sea of JapanC. People Worldwide Are Against Killing DolphinsD. Protect the Wild AnimalsBThe writer Margaret Mitchell is best known for writing Gone with the Wind, first published in 1936. Her book and the movie based on it, tell a story of love and survival during the American Civil War. Visitors to the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta, Georgia, can go where she lived when she started composing the story and learn more about her life.Our first stop at the Margaret Mitchell House is an e xhibit area telling about the writer’s life. She was born in Atlanta in 1900. She started writing stories when she was a child. She started working as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal newspaper in 1922. One photograph of Ms. Mitchell, called Peggy, shows her talking to a group of young college boys. She was only about one and a half meters tall. The young men tower over her, but she seems very happy and sure of herself. The tour guide explains: “Now in this picture Peggy is interviewing some boys from Geo rgia Tech, asking them such questions as ‘Would you really marry a woman who works?’And today it’d be ‘Would you marry one who doesn’t?’ ”The Margaret Mitchell House is a building that once contained several apartments. Now we enter the first floor apartment where Ms. Mitchell lived with her husband, John Marsh. They made fun of the small apartment by calling it “The Dump”.Around 1926, Margaret Mitchell had stopped working as a reporter and was at home healing after an injury. Her husband brought her books to read from the library. She read so many books that he bought her a typewriter and said it was time for her to write her own book. Our guide says Gone with the Wind became a huge success. Margaret Mitchell received the Pulitzer Prize for the book. In 1939 the film version was released. It won ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture.24. The book Gone with the Wind was _________.A. first published on a newspaperB. awarded ten Academy AwardsC. written in “The Dump”D. adapted from a movie25. The underlined phrase “tower over” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to_________.A. be very pleased withB. show great respect forC. be much taller thanD. show little interest in26. Why did Ms. Mitchell stop working as a reporter according to the passage ?A. Because she was rich enough.B. Because she was injured then.C. Because her husband didn’t like it.D. Because she wanted to write books.27. Which is the best title for the passage ?A. Gone with the Wind: A Huge Success.B.Margaret Mitchell: A Great Female Writer.C. An Introduction of the Margaret Mitchell House.D. A Trip to Know Margaret Mitchell.CAre you looking for some new and exciting places to take your kids (孩子) to? Try some of these places·Visit art museums. They offer a variety of activities to excite your kids' interest. Manyoffer workshops for making land-made pieces, traveling exhibits, book signings by children's favorite writer, and even musical performances and other arts.·Head to a natural history museum. This is where kids can discover the past from dinosaur(恐龙) models to rock collections and pictures of stars in the sky. Also, ask what kind of workshops and educational programs are prepared for kids and any special events that are coming up.·Go to a Youtheater. Look for one in your area offering plays for child and family visitors. Pre-show play shops are conducted by area artists and educators where kids can discover the secret about performing arts. Puppet(木偶)making and stage make-up are just a couple of the special offerings you might find.·Try hands-on science. Visit one of the many hands-on science museums around the country.

A news report.DYou are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or a creator. When youchoose to be a victim, the worl d is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They”are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they”are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing(内化) your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who might like to control their l ives, but they don’t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred(神圣的) moment of lifeis a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish (沉溺) in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others—and even themselves—to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have a fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.32. What does the word “they”in Paragraph 1 probably refer to ?A. People and things around you.B. Opportunities and problems.C. Creators and their choices.D. Victims and their sufferings.33. What can we learn from Paragraph 3 ?A. Creators and victims face quite different things in life.B. Creators and victims are masters of their lives.C. Victims can influence more people than creators.D. Compared with victims, creators are more emotional.34. The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that __________.A. strong attachment to (沉浸在）sufferings in life pulls people into victimsB. people need family support to deal with challengers in lifeC. it takes creators quite a long time to get rid of their painsD. one’s experiences determine his attitude toward life35. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage ?A. To define victims and creators.B. To evaluate victims against creators.C. To explain the relationship between victims and creators.D. To suggest the transformation from victims to creators.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
