Today is Sarah’s birthday. She is seventy-five. We asked a few old friends to dinner.

Like most elderly people, I suppose, we spent most of the evening talking about old times. Thirty years ago, the village used to be a quiet place. Now it has changed. Every Sunday hundreds of cars pass through the village at what I think a dangerous speed. They make the village almost as noisy as the streets of a large town. As a boy I enjoyed riding on the backs of the farm horses. Things are different now. Today there are very few horses working on the farms. The farm workers today drive tractors, not horses. A man is not of much use on a farm unless he knows all about machines. Now almost every house in the village has a TV set. Is it a good thing for children to spend the evening sitting in front of a TV set? When I was young I did not waste my time indoors. I would spend the long summer evenings outdoors. I would play with my friends, go fishing or walk by the river. When my grandchildren asked me the reason why I haven’t bought a TV set, I tell them there are many books I still want to read. I can’t find time for both reading and watching TV.

1.The old like to talk about _______.

A. themselves B. others C. the past D. nothing

2.When I was a boy, I _______ riding on farm horses.

A. used to see people B. disliked

C. was fond of D. saw some elderly people

3.Which is NOT right according to the passage?

A. In the past the village was a quiet place.

B. It is a good time for children to watch TV all evening.

C. On Sundays many cars pass through the village at a dangerous speed.

D. When I was young I didn’t waste my time indoors.

4.I would rather _______ than _______.

A. watch TV; do some reading

B. play with friends; go fishing

C. do some reading; watch TV

D. go fishing; play with friends

科目:高中英語 來源:2015-2016學(xué)年黑龍江鶴崗第一中學(xué)高二上期末英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.

However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweetmeats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.

We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.

And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?

How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?

English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible; but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.

1.According to the passage __________.

A. pineapples are the apples on the pine tree

B. there should be an egg in an eggplant

C. sweetmeats and sweetbreads are different things

D. boxing rings should be round

2. The underlined words “wind up” in the last paragraph maybe means “__________”.

A. blow B. finish C. get hurt D. roll up

3.Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that human beings are ____________.

A. lazy B. crazy C. clever D. dull

科目:高中英語 來源:2016屆天津第一中學(xué)高三上學(xué)期第二次月考英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Most people I meet want to develop more harmonious and satisfying relationships. But we may not realize that this can only be achieved by partnering with two new and strange allies(盟友):uncertainty and confusion. Most of us aren’t trained to like confusion or to admit we feel hesitant and uncertain. In our schools and organizations, we place value on sounding certain and confident.

As life continues to speed up, I believe our changing world requires less certainty and far more curiosity. I’m not suggesting we let go of our beliefs, but that we become curious about what someone else believes. As we become open to the disturbing differences, sometimes we discover that another’s way of interpreting the world is actually essential to our survival.

For me, the first step in becoming curious is to admit that I’m not succeeding in figuring things out by myself. If my solutions don’t work as well as I’d like, I take these as signs that it’s time to begin asking others what they think. I try to become a conscious listener, actively listening for differences.

There are many ways to listen for differences. Lately, I’ve been listening for what surprises me. This isn’t easy — I’m accustomed to sitting there, nodding my head as someone voices his opinions. But when I notice what surprises me, I’m able to see my own views more clearly, including my assumptions.

If you’re willing to be disturbed and confused, I recommend you begin a conversation with someone who thinks differently from you. Listen for what’s different and what surprises you. Try to stop the voice of judgement or opinion and just listen. At the end, notice whether you’ve learned something new.

We have the opportunity many times a day to be the one who listens to others and the one who is curious rather than certain. When we listen with fewer judgements, we always develop better relationships with each other. It’s not differences that divide us. It’s our judgements that do. Curiosity and good listening bring us back together.

As I consider partnering with confusion and uncertainty, I’m learning that we don’t have to agree with each other in order to think well together. There is no need for us to be joined at the head. We are already joined by our hearts.

1.According to the passage, when communicating with others, most of us try to behave____.

A. hesitantly and confusedly

B. honestly and harmoniously

C. responsibly and actively

D. confidently and convincingly

2.According to the author, in order to cope with our changing world, we should ______.

A. reconsider traditional beliefs before accepting them.

B. learn to interpret other people’s behavior.

C. become more curious about other people’s opinions.

D. try to develop more harmonious relationships with others.

3.What does the passage advise you to do when you hear different ideas?

A. We should let go of our beliefs.

B. We should admit that we are not succeeding in figuring out things.

C. We should be accustomed to sitting there and listening.

D. We should listen and find out the valuable points

69. 4.What do the underlined sentences in the passage imply?

A. We should listen more and judge less.

B. We should make decisions based on sound judgement.

C. Differences among people separate them.

D. It is important to seek common ground and reserve differences.

5.Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude to uncertainty and confusion?

A. Favorable. B. Resistant. C. Curious. D. Doubtful.

閱讀理解。閱讀下列四篇短文,從每小題后所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該選項涂黑。

EUROPE is home to a variety of cultural treasures. Lonely Planet has offered pairs of cities for culture-hungry but time-poor travelers.

London and Paris

It takes you about two hours to travel from London to Paris by Eurostar, a high-speed railway service. The two capital cities have been competing in fashion, art and nightlife for decades—but each secretly looks up to the other.

No one can doubt the grand and impressive beauty of Paris’ Louvre Museum, but if you want to save money, you cannot skip the British Museum free to visit. Compared with London, Paris has more outdoor attractions, such as the beautiful green walkway La Promenade Plantee.

In Paris, you’ll see diners linger (逗留) over red wine. While in London, you can try some afternoon tea, eat fish and chips or salted cake.

Vienna and Bratislava

Austrian capital Vienna and Slovakia city Bratislava are an hour apart by train. But since they are linked by the Danube River, the best way to travel is by ship. A tour of the two cities is the perfect way to experience everything from 17th century’s Habsburg dynasty splendor to sci-fi restaurants.

Vienna is famous for Mozart and imperial palaces. You can appreciate the perfect blending of architecture and nature in the grand Scholoss Schonbrunn Palace, and reward yourself with a cup of Vienna coffee, which has made its way to the world’s cultural heritage list.

Bratislava is best known for its fine dining—the remarkable UFO restaurant. You can enjoy a meat–laden dinner here in an amazing setting.

1.What’s the relationship between London and Paris according to the text?

A. They help each other.

B. They admire each other.
