It seems that women and beauty go together.  I think so.  Look around yourself. Fashion ads are almost everywhere.  Whether they have realized or not, a sea of. fashion is all around women.  They are made to think that without beautiful clothes they will look old and lose their charm(魅力）. So who doesn’t want to dress up to be beautiful and young?
But I don’t agree with the opinion that women have to show their beauty through their looks.  Their mind can be more beautiful and attractive than their looks.  A woman has experienced many troubles and may be called “aunt”, but she can still be beautiful if she has excellent qualities like knowledge, a kind heart and great courage(勇氣）.
What’s more，old and young,  beautiful and ugly are relative.  People who keep a young mind will never feel old.  Knowing about new things and wanting to learn more，they can keep up with fashion.  Simply dressed women are also beautiful in their own way.
Reading and learning is the best way to keep one young.  Good books can feed the flower of one’s heart and looks.
小題1:Why does the writer say that women and beauty go together ？
A．Because women are sure to be beauties.
B．Because women like to show their beautiful clothes.
C．Because women try to keep their beauty by dressing up.
D．Because women like to watch fashion ads.
小題2:According to the writer, in order to stay beautiful, women should
A．follow fashionB．do more exercise
C．keep their mind youngD．buy more clothes
小題3:What does the underlined word “relative” most probably mean in Chinese?
A．正常的B．合適的C．親戚的D．相對的
小題4:Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A．Women and FashionB．Beauty and Ugly
C．Women and BeautyD．How to Keep Young

小題1:C
小題2:C
小題3:D
小題4:C

試題分析：這篇短文主要告訴我們現(xiàn)在人們總是把女性和美麗聯(lián)系在一起，但女性并不一定只用漂亮的衣服來展示自己的美，她們的心態(tài)要比外表更美麗，更吸引人，保持年輕的心態(tài)就永遠不會老。有知識的女性，善良的女性，有勇氣的女性都是美麗的。
小題1:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的第一段Whether they have realized or not, a sea of. fashion is all around women. They are made to think that without beautiful clothes they will look old and lose their charm可知，現(xiàn)在時尚包圍著女性，使得她們認為沒有了漂亮的衣服，她們看起來就會老，沒有魅力。故女性總是通過穿衣來保持自己的美麗，這樣就把女性和美聯(lián)系了起來。故選C。
小題2:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段People who keep a young mind will never feel old.可知，作者覺得女性不必用漂亮衣服來展現(xiàn)自己的美，保持一顆年輕的心就永遠不會老。故選C。
小題3:詞義猜測題。 根據(jù)這個單詞所在的句子What’s more，old and young,  beautiful and ugly are relative.，我們知道這里的old 老的和young 年輕的，beautiful 美麗的 和ugly 丑陋的，正好是相反意思的詞，故relative 在這里是相對的這個意思。故選D。
小題4:主旨大意題。這篇短文主要告訴我們女性不一定非要用漂亮的衣服來展示自己美，她們的心態(tài)要比外表更美麗，更吸引，保持年輕的心態(tài)就永遠不會老。一個有知識的女性，善良的女性，有勇氣的女性都是美麗的。故這篇短文的最佳題目是women and beauty,女性與美。

There are seabirds as well as land-birds. The most ordinary seabird is the seagull. It has a white body, a white head and a yellow beak. There is a very, very spot of red at the very end of the beak, underneath. All gulls have very strong wings so that they can fly far out to sea. If a gull flies out too far, so that it is too tired to fly back to the shore(岸邊), it does not get frightened, for it can sit and rest upon the waves(波浪). A seagull’s wings do not get wet because all its feathers have a kind of oil over them, so that when the water gets on to the feathers, it just runs off again. Gulls can even sleep upon the waves.
Sailors(水手) know a lot about seagulls and they never kill them. When the gulls fly a long way out to sea, sailors say that it means fine weather is coming. When the gulls stay near the shore, sailors say they there will be much wind and rain, and perhaps a storm, for the gulls know more about the weather than sailors do.
小題1:The seagull is a kind of ________.
A．fishB．land-birdC．seabirdD．a(chǎn)nimal

A．swim under the seaB．stay under the sea
C．rest and sleep upon the wavesD．jump into the sea

When we can see well, we do not think about our eyes often: It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we come to see how important our eyes are.
People who are nearsighted（近視的） can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing and reading, become nearsighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant things clearly.
People who are farsighted face just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty reading a book if they don't hold it at arm's length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses too.
Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people's eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白內(nèi)障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.
When night falls, colors become fainter（更模糊） to the eyes and finally disappear. After your eyes have grown used to the dark, you can see better if you use the side of your eyes rather than the centers. Sometimes, after dark, you see a small thing to one side of you. It seems to disappear if you turn your head in its direction. This is because when you turn your head, you are looking at the thing too directly. Men on guard duty sometimes think they see something moving to one side of them. When they turn to look straight at it, they cannot see it anymore, and they believe they were mistaken. However, this mistake happens because the center of the eye, which is very sensitive (敏感的) in daylight, is not as sensitive as the sides of the eye after dark,
小題1:According to the passage, a _______ is more likely to be nearsighted.
A．guardB．doctorC．writerD．painter
小題2:People who are farsighted _______.
A．cannot do a lot of close work without glasses
B．can only see things that are very close to their eyes
C．have the same problem as the nearsighted people
D．have difficulty reading a book if they hold it at arm's length
小題3:To see a small thing at night, we need to look _______.
A．with wide open eyesB．with half shut eyes
C．straight at itD．in a slightly different direction

How do you feel when you have to make a speech in front of class? What about when you go to a birthday party? Do you get really shy?
Shyness means feeling nervous or afraid when you’re around other people. Experts have found that more than 80% of middle school students feel afraid to be the center of attention. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences(經(jīng)歷).
It’s OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a case of how much.
Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.
If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too.
You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good opportunities(機會) pass by just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practice your spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of.
小題1:The underlined phrase “to feel yourself again” in the third paragraph means “________”.
A．感受生活B．恢復(fù)過來C．玩得開心D．尋求幫助
小題2:What kind of shyness can be bad according to the passage?
A．You find it hard to enjoy yourself at a party.
B．You feel a little nervous when you go to a new place.
C．You seldom go outside, afraid of meeting new people.
D．You have a red face when you’re asked to answer a question in class.
小題3:If you have to practice your spoken English in class, ________.
A．just do it
B．just refuse to do it
C．you’d better ask someone to help you
D．tell your teacher you’re too shy to do that
小題4:We can infer(推斷)from the passage that_________.
A．kids are all born shy
B．you can’t change yourself
C．shy people can also be successful
D．shy people are not good at working others
小題5:What’s the best title for this passage?
A．Are you too busy?B．Think more for others!
C．Are you shy or not?D．Once he was shy just like you!
