A few years ago，I was dining out with a person who kept going on and on about himself， completely oblivious to the fact that I was sitting there in misery.It wasn't his company that disappointed me.I was recovering from a broken heart，and just sitting down to dinner reminded me of my last relationship.I could have collapsed in tears right there at the table. When we picked up the check，the waitress said，“Your meal was already paid for.”My friend and I didn't have a clue how it happened.Then I remembered a man coming in out of the corner of my eye.He was dressed in mostly white，sat down at the bar，had a glass of wine，stayed for maybe ten minutes，and then left.The waitress said，“Yes，the gentleman who was in here a while ago paid for you.” Just last year，I was running a halfmarathon.With just 0.1 mile to go，I was out of breath. Runners call it“hitting the wall”；I thought I couldn't move another muscle .Out of nowhere， a teenager jogs up next to me and says，“What's your name，sweetie？Jennifer？Okay，Jennifer， let's go！Come on! It's just around the corner！You can do it！”And he ran with me until I picked up my pace. I found him at the finish line to thank him for the encouragement only to learn he wasn't even supposed to be in the race that day. He was running in place of someone else. I still shake my head when I think of these momentary angels that came to me at my point of need. Do you have any experiences like this? 1．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Kindness of Strangers B．An Unpleasant Companion C．Two Special Experiences D．Hitting the Wall 答案：A 推理推断题。文章第一段便是文章的主题，句中的 something unexpectedly nice for you 则说明了作者想在下文中谈的内容，由此可知答案选 A 项。其他几个选项，则是文中的细节部分。 2．Why did the author say he was in misery? A．Because he couldn't enjoy his meal. B．Because he fell into conflict with his companion. C．Because his companion talked a lot. D．Because he was then disappointed in love. 答案：D 细节理解题。作者谈到自己坐在那里痛苦的样子，后面提到了痛苦的原因是“I was recovering from a broken heart(刚刚失恋了)．..”，由此可知答案 D 项正确。 3．What do you think of the man paying for the meal? A．He showed his kindness for his former girlfriend. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 2 B．He is an acquaintance to the two persons. C．He is generous and warmhearted to others. D．He enjoys making fun of others by doing that. 答案：C 推理判断题。文中讲述的是陌生人的帮助，由此排除 A、B 两项；作者只谈了这位陌生人帮 他们付了账单，并没有说陌生人如何捉弄他们，因此排除 D 项；帮助不认识的人付账单，说明了这位陌生 人的慷慨和热心，由此可知 C 项正确。 4．How did the teenager help the author? A．He gave the author a glass of water. B．He gave the author orders firmly. C．He ran after the author. D．He ran with the author. 答案：D 推理判断题。根据第四段的“And he ran with me until I picked up my pace.”可知， 这位年轻人陪着作者跑了一段时间，直到作者加快了脚步，由此可知 D 项符合文意。 5．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．The author still believes his experience today. B．The author feels grateful for the help he received. C．The author thinks everyone is an angel. D．The author often gets help expectedly. 答案：B 推理判断题。根据文章前面的叙述可知，作者对别人给予的帮助充满感激，认为帮助过他的 两位都是天使级人物，所以选 B 项。 【2012 辽宁省模拟】C 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D)中，选出最佳选项。 Kirk Watson, then Austin’s mayor, remembers it this way: “I was at the gym working out and going back and forth between different machines, doing different things. I was on a treadmill(踏车), my head down and a guy on another treadmill cried out, ‘Mayor, is that the World Trade Center?’ ” Moments later, Watson was in another part of the gym, away from televisions. “Another guy said another one hit.” he recalled. Watson, now a state senator, recalls every detail, every emotion of Sept. 11, 2001. “I will never forget the feeling of watching the towers fall,” he said, recalling going 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 3 into mayor mode when it became clear our nation was under attack. You, too, remember the details, the emotions of 9/11. Five weeks from today, on the 10th anniversary of that awful day, we will provide a forum for Central Texans to share their memories. At times, the memories are so vivid, it seems impossible it was so long ago. And there are times the memories are so horrific that it can be hard to comprehend that such a thing actually happened. For many of us, the 9/11 attacks on our homeland are the equivalent(等同) of what the attack on Pearl Harbor was for Americans on Dec. 7, 1941. The events were comparable, but the outcome was different. Does it seem to you America was in a better place 10 years after Pearl Harbor than we are 10 years after 9/11? We remain at war on two fronts. Our nation’s economy is shrinking. Too many Americans are unemployed. We face challenges so deep that some Americans — inheritors(继 承人) of a national spirit long marked by eternal optimism about a boundless future — are thinking about whether our best days are behind us. “Sept. 11, 2001 was our day that will live in evil,” Watson said. “We need to make sure our children and grandchildren will say we reacted to our day that lived in evil at least as well as that generation that came before us reacted to Pearl Harbor.” Have we done that? We’d like to share your thoughts in a project planned for these pages on Sunday, Sept. 11. Are your memories consumed by the horror of the sights of that day? And, like Watson, do the emotions of the day still burn within you? 63．When America was under attack on Sept 11, 2001, Kirk Watson was________. A．in the office having a talk with his staff B．receiving a phone call from his colleague C．in the stadium watching TV D．at the gym taking exercise 64．It can be learnt from the passage that ten years after Sept 11, 2001, ________ . A．America is in a better place than they were 10 years after Pearl Harbor B．America’s economy is picking up C．Americans are worried about their future D．many Americans are living a happy life 65．The author’s purpose in writing the passage is to ________ . A．hope the readers will talk about how they feel about the 9/11 attacks 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 B．expect the victims of the 9/11 attacks will be tolerant C．call on all Americans to unite D．encourage American young people to fight against terrorists 66．What can be the best title for the passage? A．Great Pain Disappears Slowly B．Ten Years Later, Memory Still Burns C．Ten Years Ago, the 9/11 Attacks Occurred Unexpectedly D．The 9/11 Attacks, Forgettable or Forgivable 【参考答案】63—66、DCAB 【四川省成都七中 2014 三诊考试】A 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A, B, C 和 D)中, 选出最佳选项。 Mattel Inc. is recalling 4.4 million Polly Pocket toys with magnets（磁铁）after some of them caused serious injuries to children who swallowed magnets that fell off. Tiny magnets inside the toys may fall off without being noticed by parents and babysitters. The magnets can be swallowed or placed in children’s noses or ears. When more than one magnet is swallowed, the magnets can attract each other and cause intestine perforation（肠内穿孔）which can be deadly. The Consumer Product Safety Commission（CPSC）received 170 reports of the small magnets coming out of these recalled toys. There were three reports of serious injuries to children who swallowed more than one magnet. All three suffered intestinal perforations that required operation. A 2-year-old child stayed in hospital for seven days and a 7-year-old child was hospitalized for 12 days. An 8-yeal-old child was also hospitalized. The recalled Polly Pocket toys contain plastic dolls and accessories（附件）that have small magnets. The magnets measure one-eighth inch in diameter and are fixed in the hands and feet of some dolls, and even in the plastic clothing, hairpieces and other accessories to help the pieces stay on the doll or the doll’s house. The model number is printed on the bottom of the largest pieces on some of the toys. Contact Mattel if you cannot find a model number on your product to determine if it is part of the recall. Polly Pocket magnetic toys currently sold in stores are not included in this recall. The model numbers 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 included in the recall are: B2632, B3158, B3201, B7118, G8605, H1537, H1538 and H3211.

It has become a new favorite of manufacturers and sellers in recent years. Many “high-tech” products bearing the name “nano” have entered the market, bringing more mysterious feeling to surprised consumers. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 6 Nanometer is a very small length unit of measure, and is very small. One millimeter is 1000 micrometers, and one micrometer is 1000 nanometers. That is, one nanometer is one billionth of a meter. Nano materials are solid materials composed of particles(粒子) or crystallites(晶体) of less than 100 nanometer in size. Then, is a cup made of nano material really any different from an ordinary cup in function as far as how it works? Are nano cups really so wonderful? A reporter went to the Institute of Nanomedicine, which is the first such institute of such a sort in the world and the only one in China, specializing in researching the investigation of the application of nano technology into medicine. A water molecule(分子) is composed of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. It can be changed only by special working skillfully of the atoms. The material making up the cup can have nanometer particles . But it cannot change the chemical and physical properties of the water contained in it. The water in the cup is still water. When people drink it, it will produce no special effect on human body. Professor Ji who worked in the Instiute of Nanomedicine told the reporter, so far, the investigation of nano materials is still limited in the laboratory. No commercial micro products can be produced yet. With the present level of science and technology, the time of everyday goods made of nanometer materials is still years away. The products labeled with nano marks in the market now are only traditional products coated with a thin layer of nanometer material, which makes them more abrasion resistant(耐磨), much easier to be cleaned, or oil resisting or moth proof(防蛀). Professor Ji explained that nano cup is a real cup. It can also be included in the list of nano products in a certain sense. But the nano cup has not changed its property and function as a cup. It is not a magical medicine for curing and health care. 67．What can we learn according to the passage? A．Millimeter is a smaller length unit compared with nanometer. B．Nano products are very popular with consumers. C．The water contained in the nano cup is not quite different from the tap water. D．A nano cup has a special function. 68．It can be inferred from the passage that ________. A．real nano products are being produced by some companies 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 7 B．nano materials have been put into use in daily goods C．the nano cup is very effective in curing and health care D．real nano products haven’t become available for people 69．The underlined word “properties” in the fourth paragraph probably means ________. A．possessions B．reactions C．qualities D．symbols 70．What would be the best title for the passage? A．High-tech Products B．Nano Materials C．High-teach Research D．Nano Cups 【参考答案】 67—70、CDCB 【四川省成都七中 2014 三诊考试】B 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A, B, C 和 D)中, 选出最佳选项。 For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do? Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped. In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—he point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 8 and never make any real progress. 35. Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict? A. Both can continue for generations. B. Both are about where to draw the line. C. Neither has any clear winner. D.

The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict. C. The teens accuse their parents of misleading them. D. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents. 37. Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ______. A. give orders to the other B. know more than the other C. gain respect from the other D. get the other to behave properly 38. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows? A. Causes for the parent –teen conflicts. B. Examples of the parent –teen war. C. Solutions for the parent –teen problems. D. Future of the parent-teen relationship. 【参考答案】35-38 BACC
