About one year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next door to me. I never heard any noise from the children. Instead, I often heard the parents yelling   __26__   at the kids, not in a nice tone, but in a   __27__  one.
We often   __28__  in the hallway. I always greeted them, but the only __29__   I ever got was a “hello” from the eight­year­old girl. I usually   __30__   to see my doctor and one day when I returned they were just   __31__   their apartment and the little girl was   __32__   the outside door open for the others. I   __33__   in the car doing   __34__   things because I wasn't eager to be snubbed(冷落) again. Finally, I got out of my car and walked towards the door. The parents were telling their daughter to hurry and get into the car,   __35__   the little girl was still holding the door,  __36__   me! I hurried although I was still in pain from my injury.
I forgot to tell her how  __37__   I was for her kindness. I wrote a note saying how much her act of kindness had   __38__ an old man's heart.
The next day there was a   __39__   on my door and it was the little girl and her father. She was quite   __40__   of her behavior and thanked me. Then I noticed her mother standing there too. Her parents  __41__   me.
From then on when we met in the hallway we always greeted each other,in a friendly   __42__.
Last night there was a heavy snow. I looked out at my car and   __43__   how I was going to keep my doctor's   __44__   because I could only walk for a short time. This morning when I opened the front door, all the snow was removed.
Isn't it  __45__   that the small kind act of an 8­year­old girl can change so many things for the better? It is said that good things come from small acts.

People do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a   21  problem. They often accept the opinion or ideas of other people.

There are six    25  in analyzing a problem.
   26  the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam's bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.
Next the person must   27   the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must determine the parts that are wrong.
Now the person must look for   28  that will make the problem clearer and lead to  possible solutions. For example, suppose Sam   29   that his bike does not work because there is some thing wrong with the brakes(剎車(chē)).   30  , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes,   31  his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.
After studying the problem, the person should have   32  suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example   33 ,his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.
In the end, one   34  seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the __35__ idea comes quite   36  because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a   37   way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖)stuck to a brake. He   38   finds the solution to his problem :he must___39___the brake.
Finally the solution is tested .Sam finds that his bicycle   40  perfectly. In short he has solved the problem.

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red?  小題1:Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings.  小題2: If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly
 小題3: A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.  小題4: A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自殺) than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
小題5: It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or gray.
A.On the other hand, black is depressing.
B.They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as grow up—we are born with our preference.
C.The rooms are pained in different colors as you like.
D.If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.
E. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.
F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colors.
G. Colors do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it.

The 47-year-old singer talks about the new album Symphony(交響樂(lè)) that came out of a “very dark time”, including her decision to give up trying to have children. “People have suggested I could adopt,” Brightman says. “But work is central to my life now. And so I am going to put it to one side. After a while not having children becomes the norm and perhaps that might sound alarming, to parents especially, but I have never known anything different. I’m not hurt by not having children. My life and career are incredibly rich.”
Talking about growing up in a large family in Berkhamsted (father a property developer who later committed suicide), she says: “I was gifted as a child, and very musical. I seemed to be good at anything to do with the arts. At 5,I understood the music I was dancing to and had an eye for costume.” She first appeared in a West End musical at 11 and hated boarding school.
Brightman led the saucy dance troupe(辣妹三人舞) Hot Gossip and had her first hit with I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper in 1978. At 18 she married a music manager called Andrew Graham Stewart. “I was probably in love but I can’t remember. Girls change such a lot between 18 and 22. It didn’t really work out.” In 1981 she was spotted by Lloyd Webber. She became his leading lady in Song and Dance, Requiem and Phantom of the Opera. They married in 1984.
Brightman says she felt hostility(敵意) “from the beginning. I haven’t tried to understand it. I’ve done very well everywhere else, especially the US, where I now live, I just accept it for what it is. The more you are away from Britain, the more you appreciate it. But I don’t miss it, although I miss my family. Our profession can be uncomfortable but I enjoy what I do. I get on with it.”
小題1: The first paragraph tells us that _____.
A.Brightman is very popular around the world except in America
B.Brightman’s musical style is a mixture of opera, pop and jazz
C.the British people don’t like her for her style of music

小題2: Brightman decided to give up having children because _____.
A.she could adopt one
B.her life and career were unbelievably rich without children
C.she felt it normal not to have children
D.she was too busy
小題3:The following statements are true except ______.
A.Brightman first appeared in a West End musical at 5
B.Brightman disliked life on the campus
C.Brightman was very gifted when she was young
D.The saucy dance troupe made Brightman famous
小題4:The underlined word in the fourth paragraph probably means _____.
A.locatedB.a(chǎn)dmiredC.followedD.found
小題5: What does the author try to say in the last paragraph by quoting Brightman’s words?
A.Brightman has to accept the fact that she is not liked in Britain
B.Brightman lives in America but she loves her own country
C.The British coldness towards Brightman led to her hatred to her homeland

Recently, one of my best friends, whom I’ve shared just about everything with since the first day of kindergarten, spent the weekend with me.Since I moved to a new town several years ago, we’ve both always looked forward to the few times a year when we can see each other.

There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers, he used two buckers. One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.
Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I don't know why he still bothers with you. What a waste of space you are!”
And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know I’m not very useful, but I can only do my best. I’m happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”
One day, the gardener heard that kind or conversation. After watering the flowers as usual, he said, “You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back. I want you to look carefully along the path.”
Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare (光禿禿的)earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.
小題1:What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?
A.DirtyB.Dark
C.Worn-outD.Plain-looking.
小題2:What was the old bucket ashamed of?
A.His past.B.His aging.
C.His manner.D.His leaking.
小題3:The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to         
A.laugh at the old one
B.take pity on the old one
C.show off its beautiful looks
D.praise the gardener’s kindness
小題4:Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?
A.Because it was used to keep a balance
B.Because it stayed in its best condition
C.Because it was taken as a treasure
D.Because it had its own function

There are three kinds of goals: short-term, intermediate and long-term goals. Short-term goals are those that usually deal with present activities. Such goals can be achieved in a week or two, or possible months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation (基礎(chǔ)), our long-term goals cannot be achieved without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the time and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school years, or they could extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you never allow yourself to become discouraged. As you complete each step, you will have more belief in your ability to grow and succeed.
Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static (靜態(tài)的) thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.
小題1: The long-term goals mean______.
A.something static and easy to get if we complete our short-term goals
B.something easy to reach if we complete a short-term goal in time
C.nothing but our dreams of future
D.a(chǎn) lot, such as a dream, and aspiration (熱望) or a wish in our life
小題2:When we complete each step of our goals, ______.
A.we will win final successB.we become down-hearted
C.we should encourage ourselvesD.we should think about changing our goals
小題3: It is the most important for us students to have ___________ first.
A.long-term goalsB.intermediate goals
C.short-term goalsD.dreams of future

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

Many Chinese have been greatly shocked by the traffic accident caused by the drunk driver Sun Weiming, who has killed five and injured some others in Chengdu, Sichuan. However, such a case is not rare.
Today, the traffic accidents may have been regarded as a social problem. The car has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of the blood on the street flows actually from rude behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral(道德的) rights of others. In fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless but just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one's actions could bring death or damage to others. A minority of the killers go even far beyond carelessness that can be imagined.
Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to(歸屬于) the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can change drivers' reactions incorrectly, slow their judgment, and make them blind to the dangers that might otherwise be obvious. The experts warn that it is important for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep his/her emotions under control.
Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem isn't only put upon drivers. Street walkers regularly ignore or break traffic regulations. They are blamed in most vehicle walker accidents, and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject(受…支配) to the basic rules of the road.
Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicles have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through regular road inspections. In addition, speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has decreased. But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to make people believe that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.
小題1:Traffic accidents may be regarded as a social problem because          .
A.a(chǎn)uto driving has become dangerous and harmful in today's society
B.people usually pay no attention to law and morality when driving
C.they have caused serious psychological problems among drivers
D.the car has killed and disabled more people than any weapon in history
小題2:Who are NOT mentioned as being responsible for the road accidents?
A.Careless bicycle-riders.B.Careless people walking in the street.
C.Irresponsible auto drivers.D.Irresponsible auto manufacturers.
小題3:Discussing solutions to traffic accidents, the author seems to be          .
A.doubtful and hopeless
B.a(chǎn)ngry and disappointed
C.objective (客觀的) and concerned
D.a(chǎn)nxious and annoyed
