閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

(A)

I had to knock on the taxi to get his attention.Finally,the driver,a man about 60,looked up from behind the wheel and apologized,“I’m sorry,but I was reading a letter.” He sounded as if he had a cold or a cough.

Since I was in no hurry,I told him to finish his letter.He shook his head,explaining that he had already read it several times and almost knew it by heart.Curious,I asked whether it was from a child or maybe a grandchild.“This isn’t family,”he replied.“though he might just as well have been a regular member of the family.Old Ed and I grew up together.”

They were always friends.But since he moved away from the neighborhood 30 years ago,it’d generally just been postcards at Christmas time between them.A couple of weeks ago,Ed died.“I should have kept in touch.” He repeated this,more to himself than to me.To comfort him,I said sometimes we just didn’t seem to find the time.“But we used to find the time,” he said.“Take a look.” He handed the letter over to me.

The first sentence “I’ve been meaning to write for some time,but I’ve always delayed it.” reminded me of myself.It went on to say that he often thought about the good times they had had together.When I read the part where it said “Your friendship really means a lot to me,more than I can say because I’m not good at saying things like that”,I found myself nodding in agreement.

We had gone several kilometers and were almost at my hotel, so I read the last paragraph: “So I thought you’d like to know that I was thinking of you.” And it was ended with “Your Old Friend, Tom.”

“I thought your friend’s name was Ed,” I said.

“I’m Tom,” he explained. “It’s a letter I wrote to Ed before I knew he’d died. I never put it in the mailbox. I guess I should have written it sooner.” His face was pale as he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.

When I got to my hotel room I didn’t unpack right away.I had to write a letter and post it.

1.Who wrote the letter?

A.Tom

B.Old Ed.

C.The author.

D.The driver’s grandchild.

2.It can be inferred from the passage that the driver regretted_____.

A.missing Ed’s funeral

B.moving away from his neighborhood

C.forgetting to send Ed Christmas cards

D.not being able to keep in touch with Ed

3.From Paragraph 4,we learn that the author _______.

A.often fails to write to his friends

B.has no intention to write to his friends

C.had many great moments with his friends

D.was good at expressing his feelings to friends

4.What message does the passage probably try to convey?

A.Comfort your friends when they are feeling down.

B.Life is unpredictable so live each day as if it were your last.

C.Remember to always mail your letters after expressing your words.

D.Always make time to value and experience your lasting friendships.

On a stormy day last August, Tim heard some shouting.Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.

Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search a football.Once they’d rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water.The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore.But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.

Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.

“Everything went quiet in my head,” Tim recalls(回憶).“I’m trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.”

Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water.Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress.“At one point, I considered turning back,” he says.“I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella! Let’s aim for the pier(碼頭),” Jack said.Tim turned the boat toward it.Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink.“Can you guys swim?” he cried.“A little bit,” the boys said.

Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier.Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs.Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys’ faces.

“Are we almost there?” they asked again and again.“Yes,” Tim told them each time.

After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.

1.Why was the boat far into open water?

A.The boys rowed too fast.

B.The big current carried it.

C.The wind blew it.

C.The boys tried to get attention..

2.Why did the two boys go to the sea?

A.To go boat rowing

B.To get back their football.

C.To swim in the open water

D.To test the umbrella as a sail.

3.What does “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A.The beach

B.The water

C.The boat

D.The wind

4.Why did Tim raise his head regularly?

A.To take in enough fresh air

B.To consider turning back or not.

C.To check his distance from the boys.

D.To ask the boys to take down the umbrella.

5.How can the two boys finally reach the pier?

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2016屆寧夏長(zhǎng)慶高級(jí)中學(xué)高三上學(xué)期第三次月考英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9 am Monday morning lecture, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pyjamas(睡衣). Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.

All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting(警報(bào))systems, this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the“night owl”schedule of sleep.

This is opposed to the“early bird”schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight. Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night. Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as“night owls”and only 10 percent can be classified as“early birds”—the other 70 percent are in the middle. Although this is clearly not true for all students, for the ones who are true night owls this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.

1. What does the author stress in Paragraph 1?

A. Many students are absent from class.

B. Students are very tired on Monday mornings.

C. Students do not adjust their sleep patterns well.

D. Students are not well prepared for class on Mondays.

2.Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?

A. Most students prefer to get up late in the morning.

B. Students don’t sleep well because of alerting systems.

C. One’s body clock governs the sleep/wake cycle independently.

D. Adolescents’delayed sleep/wake cycle isn’t the preferred pattern.

3.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “classified”?

A. Criticised. B. Grouped. C. Organised. D. Named.

4.What does the text mainly talk about?

A. Functions of the body clock.

B. The “night owl” phenomenon.

C. Human beings’ sleep behaviour.

D. The school schedule of “early birds”.
