Walking around the corner and into the hall at three in the morning, lost in thought and dragging a mop bucket, I raised my eyes to the front counter in indifference. A man, looking to be in his mid 40’s, stood in a pink dress. A wide-edged hat stuck out over his massive frame resembling an umbrella that was a little too shabby and worn-out, making him look like a woman. The shock at seeing such a strong proud man in a cheap disgusting dress broke my heart, as well as frightened me.
Dropping my mop on the floor in surprise and picking up my face that had temporarily fallen off, I confidently walked over to the desk.
“I’m sorry,” I began to say but was confused on whether sir or madam was appropriate. “Can I help you?”
“I need a room,” he said in a gruff (粗啞的) powerful voice.
“Sure thing,” I said bringing up the registry. “Can I get your last name?”
“Hurgan,” he said briefly.
“And your first name?”
“Amanda.”
Suddenly I had to direct all of my concentration on holding back a smile. A ten second pause of silence passed while I tried to stay calm.
“Okay,” I said getting back to the job, “can I get your phone number, Amanda?”
All of the information was acquired and stored and Amanda received her room key for the night. All was well as I returned to the neglected mop bucket. Suddenly a low throaty cough drew me out of my temporary mental disorder. Looking over at the desk where Amanda stood touching her thick biceps (二頭肌) I once again dropped the mop in shock.
“I’m sorry about that,” I said coming around to the desk. Amanda stared with unease twisting her sleeve with her right index finger.
“I have a cat,” she said in a low voice.
“I’m sorry you what?” I asked leaning in closer. She drew back a bit as if I was some kind of threat.
“I have a cat.”
Looking up into her tall frame, I replied, “That’s fine. We just need to add an extra $10 fee.” She handed me her credit card once again. I swiped it, returned it, and grabbed the printing receipt.
“You just need to sign here,” I said handing over the pen. She hesitantly grabbed it from my hand and signed. As she began to return it, my hand came a bit too close to connecting with hers. Scared and possibly a little disgusted she dropped the pen, causing it to bounce off the counter and onto the floor.
“Sorry,” she said, looking down. “I have to go get my cat.”
While Amanda was getting her cat, an unpleasant thought was circling around my head. Here I was just doing my job and this, this WO-MAN was acting as if I was the monster! He was wearing a pink dress! And I was the monster? Was he even still a man? The sliding doors opened and in came Amanda passing the front desk without even giving me a polite nod.
The story most probably happened at a ________.
A. pub B. hotel C. hospital D. shop
We can conclude that the author’s attitude towards the man is _______.
A. objective B. indifferent C. critical D. considerate
Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. The author was on the edge of smiling when he heard the man’s first name.
B. When the man checked in, he tipped the author $10.
C. After signing, the man grasped the author’s hand and thanked him.
D. The man gave the author a friendly nod while going toward his room.
What might be the best title of this passage?
A. A disgusting cat B. A considerate waiter
C. A fierce monster D. A strange-looking WO-MAN

閱讀下面短文,掌握其大意,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。
Every fast-food employee knows that the drive-through window is the worst position. The window sticks with constant ice; the roar of engines hurts your ? ; your words are lost in the howling wind.
On a ? ? ? afternoon, everything changed.
Every once in a while, the sub-zero temperatures seal a ? ? ? windows shut. Drivers don’t exactly enjoy having to stand outside in the cold,? ? ? their orders into a speaker box, when they expect to drive through on their heated leather seats. In such cases, most customers tend to show their annoyance to the employees.
This woman was ? ? ? .
“I’ll get the next car’s ? ? ? as well,” she said as she came up to the window to pay. She stood outside, ? ? ? much snow on her hair. Though she was obviously freezing, her bright ? ? ? lit up her face like a fire.
“You can’t ? ? ? their drinks,” I said, confused and tired.
“No, but I’ll buy them,” she said. “Pay it forward and all that.”
Completely puzzled, I charged her as ? ? ? , and when the next customer arrived at the window I explained what had just happened. I watched as his ? ? ?? changed — first angry to be out in the cold, then? ? ? ? at the random act of kindness, and finally, delighted by his? ? ? .
“I suppose I’ll pay for the next order then,” he replied, nodding and waving at the impatient driver ? ? him. He ? ? ? over the cash and received his pre-paid hot drink.
The trend continued. Customers arrived annoyed, only to leave ? ? ? and pleased. Some were shocked to spend much more than they had expected, ? ? ? others ended up receiving their order for less than half the price.
Five vehicles passed, then ten, then twenty. No one refused to pay. Customers stood at my window ?? ? ?? a fist-full of change to buy drinks for a complete stranger. Cars drove off, honking (鳴笛) and ?? ? ?? their thanks.
It only takes one customer, one person, to change the entire ? ? ? of traffic. It only takes one moment, one smile, to warm up even the coldest of days.

科目:高中英語 來源:2011-2012學(xué)年廣東省廣州市高三第一次月考英語試題 題型:閱讀理解
I used to watch her from my kitchen window. She seemed so small as she muscled her way through the crowd of boys on the playground. The school was across the street from our home and I would often watch the kids as they played during break. I remember the first day I saw her playing basketball. I watched in wonder as she ran circles around the other kids. She managed to shoot jump shots just over their heads and into the net. The boys always tried to stop her but no one could. I began to notice her at other times, basketball in hand, playing alone.
One day I asked her why she practiced so much. Without a moment of hesitation she said, “I want to go to college. The only way I can go is to get a scholarship. I am going to play college basketball. I want to be the best. My Daddy told me if the dream is big enough, the facts don’t count.” Well, I had to give it to her—she was determined. I watched her through those junior high years and into high school. Every week, she led her school team to victory.
One day in her senior year, I saw her sitting in the grass, head in her arms. I walked across the street and sat down in the cool grass beside her. Quietly I asked what was wrong. “Oh, nothing,” came a soft reply, “I am just too short.” The coach told her that at 5’5” she would probably never get to play for a top ranked team—much less offered a scholarship—so she should stop dreaming about college. She was heartbroken and I felt my own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment. I asked her if she had talked to her dad about it yet. She told me that her father said those coaches were wrong. They just did not understand the power of a dream. He told her that if she truly wanted a scholarship and that nothing could stop her except one thing — her own attitude.
The next year, as she and her team went to the Northern California Championship game, she was offered a scholarship and on the college team. She was going to get the college education that she had dreamed of.
1.The author was probably the girl’s .
A. brother or sister B. friend C. mother D. teacher
2.Why was the girl heartbroken ?
A. She was considered too short to be a top player.
B. Her coach stopped her training because of her height.
C. She couldn’t be on a college basketball team.
D. She wouldn’t be admitted by an ideal college.
3. We can learn from the passage that .
A. her family wouldn’t like to pay her college fee
B. her father forced her to play basketball in collage
C. being a top basketball player can win you a scholarship for college
D. she wouldn’t like to turn to his father for help when in difficulty
4.Which word can best describe her father ?
A. Encouraging. B. Optimistic. C. Stubborn. D. Cruel.
5.Which proverb best matches the story ?
A. Practice makes perfect. B. Rome was not built in a day.
C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Pride comes before a fall.
