B
It is the duty of every man to work. The life of a lazy man is of no use to himself and to others. The man who is too lazy to work is the man who is generally most ready to beg or to steal. Every boy, when he is young, should learn how to do some useful work.
But it is not enough that a boy should learn some kind of work. He should put his heart and soul completely into his work, and not waste his spare time. “Work while you work and play while you play” is as good a rule for young people as for the old!
There is no better help to diligence (勤奮) than the habit of early rising, and this, just like all other good habits, is most easily formed in youth. There is an English saying, “Lost time never returns”. This means that everybody must be diligent and make good use of his time. One must study hard when one is young so that one may make great progress, succeed in life and become useful to one’s country. Those who are diligent will never become beggars. Therefore, we can say that diligence is the mother of success.
小題1:From the passage, we know that those who are too lazy to work will_________.
A.waste their time
B.help others
C.become beggars or thieves
D.make progress some day
小題2:In order to learn to be diligent, it’s important for young people to _________.
A.form the good habit of getting up early in youth
B.learn about some good habits
C.work while they work and play while they play
D.work all the time without playing
小題3:One can’t be successful in life unless he _________when he is young.
A.is diligent in his study
B.loves life
C.spends some time learning something
D.makes up for his lost time

小題1:C
小題2:A
小題3:A

試題分析:本文敘述了這意味著每個人都必須勤奮,利用好時間,一個人在年輕時必須努力學(xué)習(xí),只有這樣,他才能過好他的一生并取得成功.另外,勤奮是成功之母。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)The man who is too lazy to work is the man who is generally most ready to beg or to steal.過于懶惰以至于不去工作的人一般都是準(zhǔn)備偷盜和搶劫的人,故選C。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)There is no better help to diligence (勤奮) than the habit of early rising,沒有比早起更能讓你勤奮的事情了,故選A。
小題3:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)One must study hard when one is young so that one may make great progress, succeed in life and become useful to one’s country. 一個人在年輕時必須努力學(xué)習(xí),只有這樣,他才能過好他的一生并取得成功,故選A。
點(diǎn)評:細(xì)節(jié)題為閱讀考題的重頭戲,所占比例高達(dá)80% ,相對而言較簡單,因為這類題雖然要求理解準(zhǔn)確,但基本上限于字面意義的理解,范圍也限于局部,因此是我們可望得高分的部分。細(xì)節(jié)題絕大部分體現(xiàn)“中心思想是解”這一原理。本文都是細(xì)節(jié)理解題,在文中比較容易找到答案,本文主要論述的是人要勤奮。

When she 42 with her cookie, her grandfather asked her to show him her  43 . She held out only her left hand  44 , and he said, “Show me the other hand.” When she unwillingly did  45 , showing the coin, she saw  46 in her grandfather’s eyes.

Few things have as large an influence on  50 the values of a child as the strong pain of lovingly administered shame (羞愧). It helps judge right from wrong and gives a   51 emotional (感情的) dimension to moral (道德的) and character issues.

Are morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I hardly went to bed before midnight, and I would always get up late the next morning.
But after a while I couldn’t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity (效率) was always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed that my strategy was wrong.
The most common wrong strategy is this: supposing you’re going to get up earlier, you’d better go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail.
There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you’re tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at fixed hours, you’ll sometimes go to bed when you aren’t sleepy enough. You’re wasting time lying in bed awake.
My solution is to combine both methods. I go to bed when I’m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at different times every night.
However, going to bed only when I’m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.
小題1:According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to ________.
A.people who stay up until the next morning
B.people who get up early in the morning
C.people who feel sleepy in the morning
D.people whose productivity is the lowest in the morning
小題2:Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser?
A.Because he / she wanted to have more sleep time.
B.Because he / she wanted to do morning exercise.
C.Because he / she wanted to test which school is better.
D.Because he / she found that the productivity was higher.
小題3:The author experienced all the following EXCEPT ________.
A.going to bed after midnight
B.a(chǎn)sking scholars for advice on sleeping habits
C.getting up early occasionally
D.pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping
小題4:What’s the author’s sleep pattern?
A.Going to bed early and getting up early.
B.Going to bed late and getting up late.
C.Going to bed when sleepy and getting up at a fixed early time.
D.Going to bed early and getting up late.
小題5:The passage is mainly about ________.
A.main schools of thought on sleep patternsB.how to have a good sleep
C.wrong strategies for getting up earlyD.how to become an early riser

D
At the railway stations all across Britain next week, groups of students will gather with their backpacks to wait for the trains that will carry them home for Christmas. This is a large movement of human beings as before, but with more contradictory traffic flows, so that trains filled with the young pass each other travelling in every direction.
At first, I went home every weekend with my washing, but then those visits became less regular. How did I let my parents know I was coming? They had no phone. Perhaps I wrote to them (“Expect me with dirty shirts this Friday afternoon”), but more likely I didn’t let them know, and just turned up or didn’t turn up, not understanding that my parents’ hopes of seeing me were a greater disappointment of my carelessness than a spoiled tea.
And in all this I suspect I was typical (有代表性的), at least of young men. As for our fathers and mothers, none of them talked of “empty-nest syndrome (綜合癥)”, even though its possible effect that the main human duty is to protect and feed the young would have suited their generation better than ours. Then, the feeling of loss went without a name. Today, it’s a condition with remedies, which will make parents feel more enjoyable in their life, The Mayo Clinic, for example, suggests you try to maintain regular contact with your children through “visits, phone calls, emails, texts or video chats”. If you feel unhappy, lean on (depend on … for support) loved ones or your mental health providers. Above all, stay positive: “Thinking about the extra time and energy that you might have to devote to your marriage or personal interests after your last child leaves home, it might help you adapt to this major life change.”
What can’t be denied, however, is that children often leave home. In modern societies, this is what they do. Christmas is the very time they can be depended on to return. For the non-religious, that may be this season’s true comfort and significance.
小題1:The main reason for the busy traffic across Britain next week is that _______.
A.young students will travel home for Christmas.
B.young people will travel in every direction.
C.it is a large movement of human beings
D.the traffic flows will be more contradictory
小題2:From the second paragraph we can learn that the writer _______.
A.went home every week to wash dirty clothes
B.understood his parents’ desire of seeing him
C.didn’t understand his parents’ feelings
D.went home to see his parents regularly
小題3:The underlined word “remedies” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _______.
A.reasonsB.excusesC.habitsD.solutions
小題4:From the last paragraph we know that _______.
A.in modern society, children should leave home
B.Christmas is likely a time for family reunion
C.the significance of Christmas is celebration
D.Christmas is not a comfort for the non-religious
小題5:From the passage we can infer that by writing the article the writer is to _______.
A.persuade the young to show concern for their parents
B.a(chǎn)sk the young to go home regularly
C.make the young understand their parents’ interest
D.enable the young to be more independent

Letters to the next president
Dear Mr. President:
I would like to personally thank you for your time and concern for our great country. I would like to take a few minutes to address a few concerns that I have with the United States.
First of all, I would like to address the war. In my opinion, we should have never been involved with Iraq to the extent that we are now. I believe we should pull our troops out. However, I think there should be a time table that we follow but the time table should not be released(發(fā)布) because the enemy does not need to know when we are going to pull out. Also, the war takes out a ton of our money, which leads me to my next issue.
The economy right now, in the opinion of many Americans is the biggest issue with which we are facing right now. No one can predict what will happen one day or the next. The obvious thing to do is to put 700 billion dollars in the economy, but that bill failed and was rejected by the House of Representatives(眾議院). Instead of putting 700 billion dollars in, I think the money should be equally distributed among Americans to pay off their debts. I'm not sure if this would work, but I think it is a positive alternative(替代) we could take.
My final issue I would like to call to your attention is teacher's salaries. The high school students of today are America's future. In a way, America's future depends greatly on the high school teachers of America. Saying this, it is sad that teacher's salaries are where they are. While teachers are working harder and harder every day to teach high school students, CEO's of big companies that are driving our countries economy into the ground are getting bonuses. I'm not saying that teacher's salaries should be the same of CEO's of companies, but I do strongly believe that action should be taken to increase the salaries of teachers because they have one of the most important jobs in America - - preparing our country for the future.
Once again, thank you for your time and your effort you put in to making this great country a better place.
Sincerely, Walker
小題1:What's the author's attitude towards the Iraq War?
A.SupportiveB.Objective(客觀的)C.NegativeD.Positive
小題2:What's true about the time of pulling the troops out?
A.We should pull the troops out without delay.
B.There is no need to have a time table to follow.
C.The public has the fight to know the time table.
D.We should keep the time secret from the enemy.
小題3:According to the author, the 700 billion dollars__________
A.is the biggest issue with which we are facing right now.
B.has been accepted by the House of Representatives.
C.should be equally shared among Americans
D.should be put in the economy
小題4:When talking about high school teachers, the author thinks that____________
A.the teachers' salaries are not high enough.
B.teacher's salaries should be as high as CEO's.
C.the teachers work harder than CEO's of companies.
D.teaching is more important than any other job in America

Sarah came running in saying, "Look what l found. " Over the top of the paper I was reading I saw a long object that made me jump. It was a piece of snakeskin that had been shed (脫皮)  by one of our garden snakes.
'Isn't it beautiful?" said my wide-eyed 7~year-old daughter. I stared at the organic wrapper and thought to myself that it really was not that beautiful, but I did not want to disappoint Sarah.  Everything children see for the first time is elementary to their sense of beauty and creativity. They see only merit (憂點(diǎn)) and excellence in the world.
"Why does it do this?" Sarah asked. I like to teach my children that there is something else going on besides what they see in front of them. "Snakes shed their skin because they need to renew themselves," I explained.
"Why do they need to renew themselves?" Sarah asked. "We often need to shed our skins, those coatings that we cover ourselves with," I said to my now absorbed daughter. "We outgrow some things and find other stuff unnecessary. This snake no longer needs this skin.  It is probably too old, and the snake probably doesn't think it looks as smart in the skin as it once did.  Like buying a new suit. "
Of course, I'm sure this explanation won't suit naturalists. But Sarah got the point. As we talked, I knew that she began to understand that renewal is part of progress; that we need to take a good look at ourselves, and rooms and schoolwork and creativity, and she began to see what we need to keep and what need to cast off.  I was careful to point out that this is a natural process, not one to be forced.
"Snakes don't peel off their skin when they feel like it," I explained.  "lt happens as part of their growth. "
"I see, Dad. " said Sarah.  She then jumped off my lap, grabbed the snakeskin, and ran off.
I hoped she would remember this. Often, in order to find our real selves underneath the layers of community and culture we are cloaked (掩飾) in year after year, we need to start examining these layers. We need to gently peel some away, as we recognize them to be worthless, unnecessary, or flawed (有缺陷的);  or at best,  remember the things we discard(丟掉)to teach us how we can improve.
小題1:When Sarah asked the author whether the snakeskin was beautiful,___________
A.he was shocked and jumped
B.he tried to understand her point of view
C.he thought that telling the truth was a merit
D.he decided to teach her something about the garden
小題2:How did Sarah feel about the author's explanation?
A.Confused.B.BoreciC.Satisfied.D.Excited.
小題3:Which of the following would the author agree with?
A.By reflecting on ourselves, we can better ourselves.
B.It is necessary to force others to remove some things.
C.The community and culture force us to change.
D.It is natural to keep some old clothes.
小題4:From the text, we can conclude that the author___________.
A.does not like nature much
B.takes the chilcl's feelings lightly
C.is both a logical and thoughtful person
D.loves to see his daughter excited about animals
小題5:Which of the following could be the best title for the article?
A.The things we should cast offB.A shed snakeskin in Sarah's eyes
C.A natural part of our growthD.Renewal for snakes and us
