In life, people come across many experiences, which they remember throughout their lives. I had a similar experience, too.
I was very excited. It was the day of my last paper of the final examination. My mind was full of thoughts of how I would spend my vacation. I was especially excited of the invitation that my uncle had given me to stay with him for a few days in Cambridge.
I was prepared for the subject, physics. My friends and I were on the ground doing the last minute revisions and also discussing the questions that were supposed to come in the paper. Suddenly the bell rang and we got into our classrooms. The teacher came and quickly handed out the answer paper and the question paper. The paper was of two hours and some of the expected questions came. I finished it almost forty-five minutes earlier. But since it was a rule not to collect the answer paper before the allotted(規(guī)定的)time. the teacher was not collecting and I had to sit till the time was over. I checked my paper twice and corrected some of the mistakes in it. I started thinking about the place my friends and I had planned to go after the paper.
Though I was thinking for a long time, the time seemed to be endless. So I thought of drawing something on the question paper and turned it overleaf. I was shocked to see that the page which I had supposed to be blank had four more questions on it which carried 20 marks and would take at least half an hour to complete. I had a quick glance at my watch. There were only 10 minutes left. I was so nervous that I was hardly in a state to write anything. They were the sub-questions(小題)of the last question. Suddenly our physics teacher came in and told all of us that in the last question, out of 6 sub-questions only 2 had to be solved. I felt very much relieved.
Thereafter I never made such mistakes again. But I realized that my anxiousness and excitement could have cost me to lose 20 marks and decided never to make such a mistake again.
小題1:Which of the following statements is true?
A.The writer didn’t work hard at physics.
B.The writer lost 20 marks for the last question.
C.The writer made some mistakes during the exam.
D.The questions on the paper were difficult for the writer.
小題2:The underlined word “relieved” means ________.
A.more nervousB.less afraidC.more surprisedD.less worried

A.the writer did 2 sub-questions of the last question
B.the writer turned overleaf to do the sub-questions
C.the writer spent 45 minutes finishing the paper
D.the writer got full marks in the physics exam
小題4:We can learn from the passage that we should _____________.
A.learn some exam skills
B.concentrate on what we are doing
C.try our best to do well in the exam
D.be careful not to make mistakes in the exam

小題1:C
小題1:D
小題1:A
小題1:B

小題1:C 本題應(yīng)該用排除法,第三段中看出作者應(yīng)該是well-prepared,排除A,D,從倒數(shù)第二段看出,做最后,老師指出,6小題中只需做2題,所以作者并沒(méi)有失20分。從倒數(shù)第三段的倒數(shù)第二行可以看出,作者在空余的時(shí)間里改了一些錯(cuò),所以應(yīng)該是選C。
小題1:D relieved應(yīng)該是放松的意思,應(yīng)該選D。
小題1:A 作者以后做完題后往后翻,結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)后面還有四道題,從后文看出最后一大題總共有六小題,所以,作者應(yīng)該是做了2個(gè)小題的。

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

Every summer, no matter how urgent work schedule is, I take off one day exclusively for my
son. We call it dad-son day. This year our third stop was the amusement panic, where we discovered
that he was tall enough to ride one of the fastest roller coasters (過(guò)山車(chē))in the world. We experienced through face-stretching turns and circles for ninety seconds. Then, as we stepped off the ride, in a calm voice, he remarked that it was not as exciting as other rides he’d been on. As I listened, I began to sense something seriously out of balance.
Throughout the season, I noticed similar events all around me. Parents found it hard to find new stimulations for cold kids. Surrounded by ever-greater stimulation, their young feces were looking disappointed and bored
Facing their children’s complaints of "nothing to do", parents were spending large numbers of dollars for various forms of entertainment In many cases the money seemed to do little more than buy relief from the terrible complaint of their bored children. This set me thinking the obvious question: "How can it be so hard for kids to find something to do when there’s been such a range of stimulating entertainment available to them?"
What really worries me is the strength of the stimulation. I watch my little daughter’s &ce as she absorbs bloody special effects in movies.
Why do children facing such excitement seem starved for more? Thai was, I realized, the point I discovered during my own adolescence that what creates excitement is not going fast, but going faster. Excitement has less to do with speed than changes in speed.
I am concerned about the increasing effect of years at these levels of feverish activity. It is no mystery to me why many teenagers appear uninterested and burned out, with a "been there, done that" air of indifference toward much of life. As increasing numbers of friends’ children are advised to take medicine to deal with inattentiveness at school or anti-depressants (抗抑郁藥)to help with the loss of interest and joy in their lives—I question the role of kids’ boredom in some of the diagnoses (處方).
My own work is focused on the chemical imbalances and biological factors related to behavioral and emotional disorders. These are complex problems. Yet I’ve been reflecting more and more on how lie pace of life and the strength of stimulation may be contributing to the rising rates of psychological problems among children and adolescents in our society.
小題1:The reason why the author felt surprised in the amusement park was that ________.
A.his son was not as excited by the roller coasters ride as expected
B.his songs enjoyed turns and circles with his face stretched
C.his son appeared upset but calm while riding the roller coasters
D.his son could keep his balance so well on the fast moving roller coasters
小題2:According to the author, children will probably feel excited ________.
A.if their parents allow them to ride roller coasters very often
B.since parents spend money on the same form of entertainment
C.a(chǎn)fter they take anti-depressants according to the diagnoses
D.if they are often exposed to more stimulating entertainment
小題3:From his own experience, the author came to the conclusion that children seem to expect _______.
A.a(chǎn) much wider variety of sports facilities
B.a(chǎn)ctivities that require complicated skills
C.the change of the forms of recreation
D.more challenging physical exercise
小題4:. In order to relieve children’s boredom, the author would probably suggest ________.
A.a(chǎn)djusting the pace of life and strength of stimulation
B.promoting the practice of dad-son days
C.consulting a specialist in child psychology
D.balancing school work with after school activities

Like all other mothers who have small children, I, too, have to steal time-from my own children at home and from the children who know me as their teacher-just to put a few words down on paper. Many times I’ve wanted to write for myself, for other women, for my parents, for my husband, and especially for my children. I would have liked to leave a legacy (遺產(chǎn)) of words explaining what it has meant to have twins. One reason that there is not a great deal written about being a mother of a new baby is that there is seldom a moment to think of anything else but the baby’s needs.
With twins, I did not have a spare hand to write with.
Before my twins were born, my days were long and I had nothing to write about. After the twins’ birth I did have something to write about, but I found myself facing not a pen and paper but milk bottles.
Some nights, friends would visit. They would leave at 11 p.m., heading for bed, and for us the night was only just beginning. With twins, there is really no night. Each feeding lasts a long time. At 1:00 a.m., each of them would begin crying from hunger. At 4:00am, when I finally put them down, I felt exhausted.
Two years have passed since then and we’ve managed to live through it all. My days are still very full and even now there isn’t one evening when I put the twins down for the night that I don’t have a break. At last a little time for myself.
小題1:When did the writer have time but she didn’t feel like writing anything?
A.Before the birth of her twins.
B.When she faced bottles of milk.
C.After her friends visited her home.
D.When she had to think about the babies’ needs.
小題2:What does the writer mainly write about?
A.Her role as a wife. B.Her work as a writer.
C.Her experience as a mother. D.Her feeling as a woman.
小題3:Why did the writer say the night was just beginning (in the 4th paragraph)?
A.Because her friends left her house too late.
B.Because she started to take care of the twins even at night.
C.Because her babies often cried and she woke up.
D.Because she could not sleep till four in the morning.
小題4: This passage is probably from a(n) _________.
A.blog B.newspaper C.guidebook D.a(chǎn)dvertisement
小題5: What can we learn from the passage?
A.The writer was unhappy because of no time for writing.
B.The writer cared about her babies more than her own interests.
C.The writer hated to be a mother of twins.
D.The writer could steal a little time at night.

It has been found that less than one shopper in five makes a complete shopping list before going to the store. The reason for this is that seven out of ten of today’s purchases(購(gòu)買(mǎi)) are decided in the store, where the shoppers tend toward impulse(沖動(dòng)) buying. Buying groceries on impulse had risen for the past forty years, and this rise has coincided(巧合) with the growth of self-service shopping. However, in grocery stores where clerks wait on customers there is much less impulse buying. It is hard for people to buy on impulse if they have to address a clerk.
Psychologists have joined forces with merchandising(商品) experts. It is their job to persuade people to buy products which they may not need or even want until they see them attractively presented. It was discovered by the psychologists that shoppers want help in their purchases. Having so many choices confuses them, and they prefer the package that attracts them. Therefore, it is now more usual for food packers to pay attention to their package design. Attraction depends heavily on the position of the product on the shelf, however. Thus, persuading the shopper to buy is easier if the product is located at eye-level.
小題1:According to the information in the first paragraph, ______ make a complete list.
A.only five shoppersB.less than twenty percent of the shoppers
C.only ten percent of the shoppersD.not even five percent of the shoppers
小題2:The reason for the above mentioned phenomenon is that _______.
A.people have difficulty making up their mind before going shopping
B.people don’t know what is available in the store
C.people tend to decide on buying products when they see them
D.people are easily deceived(欺騙) by the attractive products
小題3:In grocery stores where customers are served there is less impulse shopping. This may be because ________.
A.the clerks ignore the customers
B.the clerks are too eager to serve the customers
C.the stores have to send the shopper’s purchases to his house
D.customers hesitate to ask for help if they haven’t decided what to buy
小題4:Shoppers tend to buy the products put on _______.
A.the top shelfB.the bottom shelf
C.the shelf which people can see easilyD.the shelf where there is less confusion
小題5:Which of the following might be the best title for this passage?
A.Psychologists and Merchandising Experts.B.Impulse Buying.
C.The more Products the More Confusion.D.Self-service Shopping.

Wind , water, fire and ice-these powerful natural forces have shaped the land of America in the past. They are still changing it today.
The Colorado River slowly cut down through stone to make the Grand Canyon(大峽谷).
Long ago, ice sheets cut Yosemite Valley and the Great Lakes, and glaciers(冰川) are still on the move in Alaska.
Wind and rain storm hit the land from time to time. Fires sometimes burn down forests and destroy the homes of wild animals. This happened in Yellowstone Park in 1988.
Dead volcanic mountains such as Haleakala on Maui and Carter Lakein Oregon are beautiful to look at. But there are several active volcanoes in the US, especially along the Pacific Coast. There are also many earthquakes in this area. Scientists can do nothing to control earthquakes or volcanoes. This was shown clearly on May 18, 1980. At 8:32 that morning, Mount St Helens in Washington state broke out. The top of the mountain was blown off.
Over 60 people –campers, scientists, journalists, forest workers—were killed. Hundreds of square miles of forests were knocked down. In towns over 100 miles away, day suddenly became night. An ash cloud hid the sun for many hours. Towns and fields in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho were covered with dirty gray ash.
Scientists knew that Mt St Helens might erupt(爆發(fā)) soon. But no one could say when. And no one expected the terrible strength of the eruption. Many people were surprised and unready. Harry R. Truman, 84, owned a small hotel in Mt St Helens. Scientists had asked people to move away because the volcano was becoming dangerous.
But Harry Truman would not leave his home. Now it is covered with many feet of dirty ash. A small cross stands above the place where Harry probably died. Perhaps it is better that he did not see the destruction of Mt St Helens, the once beautiful lake, and the forests.
But slowly, life is returning to the dead area around the mountain. Grass and small plants are beginning to grow again. Deer and birds have been seen. The land will never be the same as it once was. Perhaps Mt St Helens will erupt again. But this is all part of nature’s pattern of change, and man has little power to control it.
小題1:Choose the best title for this passage.
A.Wind, water, fire and ice
B.Volcano’s beauty and danger
C.The power of nature
D.Natural force shape beautiful land of America
小題2:After the eruption of volcano, what makes the sky turn dark?
A.The smokeB.The clouds.C.The fog.D.The ash.
小題3:The underlined word “it” means______.
A.The body of old Harry
B.The location of Harry’s home
C.The opening on top of Mt St Helens
D.The place where Harry probably died
小題4:We can infer from this article that ______.
A.Washington and Oregon are neighboring states
B.Colorado River runs through Yosemite Valley
C.The eruption of Mt St Helens also caused trouble with the Yellowstone Park
D.Scientists never knew Mt St Helens was active
