The handling and delivery of mail has always been a serious business,underpinned (加強(qiáng)，鞏固) by the trust of the public in requiring timeliness,safety,and confidentiality (保密性) .After early beginnings using horseback and stagecoach,and although cars and trucks later replaced stagecoaches and wagons,the railway mail service still stands as one of America's most re?sourceful and exciting postal innovations (革新) .This service began in 1832,but grew slowly until the civil war. Then from 1862,by sorting the mail on board moving trains,the post office department was able to decentralize (分散，下放) its operations as railroads began to crisscross (縱橫交錯(cuò)的) the nation on a regular basis,and speed up mail delivery. This service lasted until 1974. During peak decades of service,railway mail clerks handled 93% of all nonlocal mail and by 1905 the service had over 12 ,000 employees.

Railway post office trains used a system of mail cranes to exchange mail at stations without stopping. As a train approached the crane,a clerk prepared the catcher arm which would then snatch the incoming mailbag in the blink of an eye. The clerk then booted out the outgoing mailbag. Experienced clerks were considered the elite (精華) of the postal service's employees,and spoke with pride of making the switch at night with nothing but the curves and feel of the track to warn them of an upcoming catch. They also worked under the greatest pressure and their jobs were considered to be exhausting and dangerous. In addition to regular demands of their jobs they could find themselves the victims of train wrecks (毀壞) and robberies.

As successful as it was, "mail-on-the-fly" still had its share of glitches (差錯(cuò)) .If they hoisted (升起) the train's catcher arm too soon,they risked hitting switch targets,telegraph poles or semaphores (信號(hào)裝置) ，which would rip (扯開(kāi)) the catcher arm off the train. Too late,and they would miss an exchange.

(   ) 5. Which of the following can be inferred from the first paragraph?

   A. Cars and trucks later replaced stagecoaches and wagons to deliver mails.

   B. There was a high turnover of railway mail clerks.

   C. The development of the railroads from 1862 enabled post office department to focus on timeliness.

   D. The post office department had more than 12 ,000 clerks to deal with all mail.

(   ) 6. The mail crane referred to in the second paragraph is used to         .

   A. exchange mail at stations without stopping the train

   B. exchange the incoming mailbag in the blink of an eye

   C. boot out the outgoing mailbag

   D. handling and sorting the mail

(   ) 7. The underlined expression "mail-on-the-fly" refers to         .

   A. fast speed   B. skillful clerks

   C. nonstop system   D. mail cranes

(   ) 8. What is the main meaning of the passage?

   A. How the catcher arm snatched the mailbag without stopping the running train.

   B. Timeliness,safety,and confidentiality are very important in mail handling and delivery.

   C. The way the mail cranes exchanged mail.

   D. Ways improved with time in mail handling and delivery.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源： 題型：

In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it high?ly,believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad;that it sets one. person against another;that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.

I have taught many children who held the belief that their selfworth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them,playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their singleminded pursuit (追求) of success; the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.

However,while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed,others take an opposite atti?tude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players,they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people,I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying,they always have an excuse："I may have lost. But it doesn't matter because I really didn't try. " What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost,that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly,this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's selfrespect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (緩解) can we discover a new meaning in competition.

(   ) 5. What is the main meaning of this passage?

   A. Some people value competition highly to set up selfrespect.

   B. People have different opinions about competition.

   C. Competition sets one person against another.

   D. Some people seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success.

(   ) 6. Why do some people think highly of competition according to the passage?

   A. It does good to push society forward.

   B. It helps to gain selfrespect.

   C. It improves personal life attitude.

   D. It strengthens personal relationship.

(   ) 7. The true competitors also have a wrong belief that they think        .

   A. one's worth lies in how well one performs compared with others

   B. one's success in competition needs great responsibility

   C. competition is the only way to prove themselves

   D. other human qualities are not fully necessary

(   ) 8. Which of the following can best describe the writer's point of view?

   A. Everyone should try to win or achieve success in competition.

   B. Different opinions towards competition should be encouraged.

   C. Playing well and winning are really a life-and-death matter.

   D. Trying though losing is quite a different matter from even not doing anything.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源： 題型：

When I was 17 ,I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last,someday you'll most certainly be right. " It made an impression on me,and since then,for the past 33 years,I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself："If to?day was the last day of my life,would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And when?ever the answer has been "no" for too many days in a row,I know I need to change something.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external (夕卜表的) expecta?tions,all pride,all fear of embarrassment or failure―these things just fall away in the face of death,leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning,and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas (肢腺) .I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable,and that I should ex?pect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order,which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure that everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.

I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy (活體檢視) ，where they stuck an endoscope (內(nèi)窺鏡) down my throat,through my stomach and into my intestines (腸) ， put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated (麻醉) ，but my wife,who was there,told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope,the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.

(   ) 5. What does the last sentence of the passage imply?

   A. After the surgery,the writer is now fully recovered from his illness.

   B. Before the surgery,the writer knows it is hard for him to be well again.

   C. During the surgery,the writer feels quite lucky the cancer is curable.

   D. When the writer had the surgery,he is sure that cancer is nothing to fear.

(   ) 6. The underlined words "get my affairs in order" in the third paragraph most probably means         .

   A. put my things in the case in order

   B. have my things packed in order

   C. arrange everything in proper trim

   D. replace something as planned

(   ) 7. Which of the following words best describes the author's attitude towards his cancer?

   A. Disordered. B. Depressed. C. Disturbed. D. Deliberated.

(   ) 8. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?

   A. Cherish Life and Make It Meaningful

   B. Appreciate Life and Pursuit What is Important

   C. Understand Life and Ignore Any Kinds of Illness

   D. Treasure Life and Enjoy Every Minute of It
