Like any good mother, when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, she did what she could to help her 3-year-old son, Michael, prepare for a new baby. They find out that the new baby is going to be a girl, and day after day, night after night, Michael sings to his sister in Mommy's stomach.
In time, the labor pains come. But complications arise during delivery. Finally, Michael's little sister is born. But she is in serious condition. With alarm in the night, the ambulance rushes the infant to the neonatal intensive care unit at St. Mary's Hospital, Knoxville, Tennessee. The days go by. The little girl gets worse. The pediatric (兒科的) specialist tells the parents, “There is very little hope. Be prepared for the worst.”
Karen and her husband contact a local cemetery about a burial plot. They have fixed up a special room in their home for the new baby, but now they plan a funeral. Michael keeps begging his parents to let him see his sister, "I want to sing to her," he says. But kids are never allowed in Intensive Care.
Karen makes up her mind. She will take Michael whether they like it or not. If he doesn’t see his sister now, he may never see her alive.
She dresses him in an oversized suit and marches him into ICU. He looks like a walking laundry basket, but the head nurse recognizes him as a child and shouts, "Get that kid out of here now. No children are allowed. Never disturb patients here.” The mother rises up strongly and said," He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!"
Karen leads Michael to his sister's bedside. He gazes at the tiny infant losing the battle to live. And he begins to sing. In the pure hearted voice of a 3-year-old, Michael sings:" You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray......" Instantly the baby girl responds. The pulse rate begins to calm down and becomes steady.
“Keep on singing, Michael." encouraged Karen with tears in her eyes. "You never know, dear, how much I love you, please don't take my sunshine away."
The next day, the very next day, the little girl is well enough to go home! Woman's Day magazine called it "the miracle of a brother's song". The medical staff just called it a miracle. Karen called it a miracle of Gods love!

One bitterly cold day，a snowstorm blew into our area. Needing firewood，I quickly set out with my best friend，Bruce，to look for a tree to cut down. I was glad to have Bruce along with. Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can be dangerous. So it was important to have a friend who could warn me of danger.
When I chose a big tree about 23 meters tall and prepared to cut it down，my best friend suddenly warned me，“Don’t cut down that tree！It’s too close to the power line！”I wasn’t sure about it. So I decided to disregard his warning. I wanted to finish the job quickly and go home. So I began cutting down the tree. When the tree fell，there was no longer any doubt that my friend was right.
The tree caught the power line，bringing it to the ground. I considered cutting the tree off the line. After all，electricity can’t travel through wood，so I could safely remove the tree. As I reached out my finger to touch the tree，pain ran up my arm and through my head. I was shocked!
After I returned home and told my mother what had happened，she quickly called the power company. The workers from the power company soon arrived on the scene. One of them asked if I had touched the tree，and when I told him I had，his face turned pale.
“You should have been killed，” he said.
So why am I still alive？It was my boots that saved my life.
Within two hours，the workers removed the tree. Soon the snowstorm calmed down—but not my mother.
Even though she was glad I wasn’t hurt，my mother was still serious. After all，I shouldn’t have brushed off my friend’s warning.
Through this experience，I learn it’s important to listen to people who offer a different perspective.  time to listen might actually save a lot of time and trouble. It certainly would have kept me from getting the “shock” of my life.
小題1:The underlined word “disregard” in the second paragraph means “________”．

C．he didn’t hear his friend’s warning at all because of the blowing wind
D．he knew electricity can’t travel through wood
小題3:The underlined part “the snowstorm calmed down—but not my mother” means “________”．
A．my mother was still angry with me for not listening to my friend’s warning
B．my mother was still in fear of the terrible accident
C．my mother was still comforting me
D．my mother was still worried about my safety

It’s really true what people say about English politeness: it’s everywhere. When squeezing (擠過(guò)去) past someone in a narrow passage, people say “sorry”. When getting off a bus, English passengers say “thank you” rather than the driver. In Germany, people would never dream of doing these things. After all, squeezing past others is sometimes unavoidable, and the bus driver is only doing his job. I used to think the same way, without questioning it, until I started traveling to the British Isles, and here are some more polite ways of interacting (交往) with people in UK.
People thank each other everywhere in England, all the time. When people buy something in a shop, customer and shop assistant in most cases thank each other twice or more. In Germany, it would be exceptional to hear more than one thank you in such a conversation. British students thank their lecturers when leaving the room. English employers thank their employees for doing their jobs, as opposite to Germans, who would normally think that paying their workers money is already enough.
Another thing I observed during my stay was that English people rarely criticize (批評(píng)) others. Even when I was working and mistakes were pointed out to me, my employers emphasized several times but none of their explanations were intended as criticism. It has been my impression that by avoiding criticism, English people are making an effort to make others feel comfortable. This also is showed in other ways. British men still open doors for women, and British men are more likely to treat women to a meal than German men. However, I do need to point out here that this applies to English men a bit more than it would to Scottish men! Yes, the latter are a bit tightfisted.
小題1:What is the author’s attitude towards English politeness?
A．He thinks it is unnecessary.B．He thinks little of it.
C．He appreciates it very much.D．He thinks it goes too far.
小題2:What can be inferred from the passage?
A．German men never treat a woman to dinner.
B．The author think it’s unnecessary to say “thank you” to the bus driver.
C．In Germany, employers often say “thank you” to employees for their job.
D．Germans think it is unnecessary to thank workers because payment is enough.
小題3:We can learn from the last paragraph that Scottish men ______.
A．like to fight with each other
B．treat women in a polite way
C．a(chǎn)re as generous as English men
D．a(chǎn)re unwilling to spend money for women
小題4:The author develops the text through the method of ______.
A．making comparisonsB．telling stories
C．giving reasonsD．giving examples

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

I’m sure many of you have seen Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Multiplicity, or many of the other movies that describe cloning. Most of what you see in these movies is false. What you don’t know is that cloning could be dangerous, to the clone and to our society as a whole. I think human cloning is wrong mainly for four reasons.
What about identity? Humans are promised the right to their own personalities. What would happen if we ignore those rights by giving them someone else’s genetic identity? True, Cloning may prevent people from possessing their identities.
Also, these is a large power struggle here. Cloning means a degree of power and controls over another person’s physical identity and that ignores their rights and their only personalities. The person doing the cloning would have more power than any parent would have.
Cloning would also deal with killing embryos (胚胎). You might not have known, but Dolly, the sheep that was cloned in 1996, was one of over 200 sheep embryos and hers was the only embryo that survived. The rest died or were thrown away. Imagine if the failure rate was that high when we started to clone humans. cloning means running the risk of wasting too much effort
Cloning someone, at this present time, would be extremely dangerous to the birth mother and the clone. In studies done on cows, 4 out of 12 birth mothers died. There is a very high failure rate, which is shown in the cloning of Dolly. Even if you had a few good embryos, failures have been noticeable in animal tests.
So, should we work ahead in the world of cloning? I say no. the risks are greater than the benefits. It’s dangerous to the clone and to the birth mother. We would be killing human lives in the process. It would also be a violation(侵害) of the clone’s right to its own genetic identity and personality.
小題1:The author thinks human cloning is wrong mainly for ______ reasons.
A．4B．3C． 2D．5
小題2:According to the article, what is the author’s opinion about identity?
A．Cloning itself gives parents great power over identity.
B．People’s identity is completely determined by their genes.
C．Government has the rights to confirm people’s identities.
D．Cloning may prevent people from possessing their identities.
小題3:According to Paragraph 4 ,which is right ?      ____.
A．human cloning is much more difficult than animal cloning
B．there are 200 sheep successfully cloned.
C．cloning means running the risk of wasting too much effort
D．numbers of baby animals are likely to be created by cloning
小題4:Why does the author mention some movies in the first paragraph?
A．To introduce the topic of the article.
B．To present his idea about the movies.
C．To state the conclusion first.
D．To make the article unusual.
小題5: What is the best title of the passage?
A．What Is Human Cloning
B．Human Cloning Is Wrong
C．How Does Human Cloning Happen

Faced with a tough job market, fresh graduates are dreaming of running their own businesses instead. But a recent survey has showed that such ambitions lack the required support and remain just that — dreams.
The Shanghai Municipal Employment Promotion Center poll of 1,276 graduates in several universities and colleges in the city, released last Friday, showed 59.78 percent of respondents considered the possibility of setting up a company or at least a small store. "But they just stop at the 'thinking' stage," it stated.
Respondents put the top reasons for not going it alone down to a shortage of investment and a lack of business opportunity. They also listed lack of business experience and social networks, the need for advanced study and objections from family members as factors that stood in their way.
More than 90 percent of the interviewees said they would rather take up a job after graduating and then consider starting their own business two or three years down the road.
Guo Bing, a senior student in Shanghai International Studies University majoring in English, decided he wanted to be his own boss last year. But he is looking for a job first. "If I fail to find a satisfying job, I would like to establish a company in exhibition services," Guo said.
The Shanghai native has some relatives working in a local printing plant. With their help, Guo hopes to produce exhibition brochures at a relatively low price. He is also confident that his English language skills can help him do well in the industry.
"Social networking is an important factor leading to business success," Guo said.
Guo said that the shortage of graduate jobs is the main reason driving more university students to set up a business right after their graduation.
Jiang said the university sets up a business guide team made of government officials and professionals. They regularly give training courses to students who show an interest in having their own business. The parents of university graduates are more willing to help their children start up alone, the survey showed" Once you win the support of your family, you have won half the battle," Guo added.
小題1:Which of the following can be the best title?
A．A Tough Job Market
B．Graduates Who Can Only Dream of Being Boss
C．The Ambitious Fresh Graduates
D．The Story of Guo Bing
小題2:Which of the following does NOT stop fresh graduates realizing their dreams of being bosses?
A．The lack of business opportunity and investment.
B．The shortage of business experience.
C．Less skilled English language.
D．Their family members’ objections.
小題3:In the view of Guo Bing, what is the key factor that makes fresh graduates dream of being boss soon after
graduation?
A．Their family don’t support them.
B．Their social networking is not good.
C．There are not enough graduate jobs.
D．They want to achieve greater success.
小題4:Which of the following statements is NOT true about Guo Bing?
A．He has started his own business with the help of his relatives.
B．English is his major in the university.
C．He is trying to find a job which can satisfies him.
D．He is a Shanghai native.
小題5:Who is this article mostly intended for?
