B [2015 •長春普通高中三檢]

Raised in a motherless home, my father was extremely tight-fisted towards us children. His attitude didn't soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college. I had to ride the bus whenever I came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met me, even in severe 

weather. If I grumbled, he'd say in his loudest father-voice, "That's what your legs are for!"

The walk didn't bother me as much as the fear of walk?ing alone along the highway and country roads. I also felt less than valued that my father didn't seem concerned about my safety. But that feeling was cancelled one spring evening.

It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I longed for home. When the bus reached the stop, I stepped off and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.

A row of hedge (樹籬)edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when I saw something grey moving along the top of the hedge, moving towards the house. Upon closer observation, I realized it was the top of my father's head. Then I knew, each time I'd come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely.  I swallowed hard against the tears. He did care, after all.

On later visits* that spot of grey became my watchtow-er. I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. Upon reaching home, I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair. "So! My son, it's you!" he'd say, his face lengthening into pretended surprise.

I replied, "Yes, Dad. It's me. I'm home.,,

5. What does the underlined word "grumbled" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. Accepted happily.                 B. Explained clearly.

C. Agreed willingly.                  D. Spoke unhappily.

6. What made the author feel upset was .

 A. the tiredness after long hours in labs

B. the fear of seeing something moving

C. the feeling of being less than valued

D. the loneliness of riding the bus home


 7. The author's father watched behind the hedge because

 A. he was concerned about his son's safety

B. he wanted to help his son build up courage

C.he didn't want to meet his son at the doorway

D. he didn't think his son was old enough to walk alone


8.Which of the following can be the best title for the pas?sage?

A. My father's secret        B. My college life

C. Terrible journey home        D. Riding the bus alone

Can you imagine a world without chocolate? It's not something I'd like to do, so I was relieved to read that there's a university with a programme to safeguard the future of chocolate!

The University of Reading, in England, has just opened a new clearing house for all the world's new cocoa varieties. 丁hey must be quarantined(隔離)before they can be grown. Why? Cocoa production hit a record high of 4. 4 million tons last year but about 30% of the precious crop is regularly lost to pests and diseases. Now we don't want that, do we?

Demand for chocolate has been increasing faster than the world's supply of cocoa and researchers think that new varie?ties are key to solving this problem.

The University of Reading has been protecting the quali?ty of the new crops since 1985, after it took over the task from the Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew, London. And it has improved its facilities. The leader of the institution's co?coa project, Professor Paul Hadley, says, "One of the main issues concerning cocoa improvement is the supply of reliably clean, healthy and interesting cocoa material.,,

The cocoa centre has a collection of 400 plant varieties and the greenhouse uses a lot of energy to keep them in tropi?cal conditions. After up to two years in quarantine, clean and safe seeds are sent to some 20 countries, including several in West Africa. That's where 75 % of the cocoa used for choco?late worldwide comes from. The crop is extremely important for the local economy: it employs about two million people.

Professor Hadley says he works with a small team of skilled technicians who look after the collection. And more of us seem to count on them now.

The scientist says, "There is some concern within the in?dustry that demand is increasing constantly, particularly in countries like China, where the standard of living is increas?ing and people are getting a taste for different kinds of choco?late. "

1.  What is the text mainly about?

A.     Safeguarding cocoa seeds.

B.     Planting cocoa worldwide.

C.     Keeping cocoa in greenhouses.

D.     Finding the new market for cocoa.

 

2. The institution's cocoa project is to_____________ .

 

A.     have cocoa skin removed

B.     offer more jobs to people

C.     ensure the quality of cocoa

D.     supply cocoa for two million people

3. What does the last paragraph tell us?

 

A.     The taste of chocolate is changing.

B.     Demand for cocoa is increasing fast.

C.     People are concerned about cocoa varieties.

D.     Chinese have a long history of eating chocolate.

4. What's the purpose of the text?

A. To educate.                          B.  To advertise.

C.  To warn.                           D.  To inform.

A [2015 .湖北八市高三聯(lián)考] Alice's mother died when Alice was five years old. Al?ice, who grew up to be my mother, told me that after her mother's death her family was too poor to even afford to give her a doll.

In December 2012, I had a job at a local bank. One after?noon, we were decorating the tree in the bank lobby(大廳). One of my customers approached me with her beautiful hand?made dolls. I decided to get one for my daughter, Katie, who was almost five years old. Then I had an idea. I asked my customer if she could make me a special doll for my mother-one with grey hair and spectacles (眼鏡):a grandmother doll. And she gladly agreed.

A friend had told me that his dad who played Santa Claus would be willing to make a visit on Christmas morning to my home to deliver my Katie her presents, so I made some spe?cial arrangements.

Christmas Day arrived at the planned time; so did Santa Claus. Katie was surprised that Santa had come to see her at her own house. As Santa turned to leave, he looked once more into his bag and found one more gift. As he asked who Alice was, my mother, surprised at her name being called, indicated that she in fact was Alice. Santa handed her the gift, with a message card that read:

For Alice :

I was cleaning out my sleigh(雪橇) be fore my trip this year and came across this package that -was supposed to be delivered on December 25, 1953s The present inside has aged , but I felt that you might still wish to have it. Many apologies for the lateness of the gift.

                            Love,

                           Santa Claus

My mother's reaction was one of the most deeply emo?tional scenes I have ever seen. She couldn't speak but only hold the doll she had waited for fifty-nine years to receive as tears of joy ran down her cheeks. That doll, given by " San?ta" ,made my mother the happiest "child" that Christmas.

1.The reason why the writer's mother couldn't have a doll when young was that___________ .

 

A.     Santa Claus forgot to deliver the doll to her

B.     her daughter couldn't make a doll by herself

C.     her parents left the doll in the Santa Claus' sleigh

D.     her family was badly off when she was a child

2.It can be inferred from the passage that______________ .

A. the writer's father played Santa Claus

B.the writer's mother was already in her sixties when she received the doll

C. the writer asked one of her friends to make the doll for her mother

D. Santa Claus was too careless to deliver the doll on time

 

3. When the writer's mother received the doll that she had waited so long, she was .

 

A.     pleased and inspired

B.     puzzled and angry

C.     happy and excited

D.     curious and grateful

4.The best title for this passage could be " ".

A [2015 •成都外國語學(xué)校高三月考]

Most Americans would have a difficult time telling you, specifically* what are the values which Americans live by. They have never given the matter any thought.

Over the years I have introduced thousands of interna?tional visitors to life in the United States. This has caused me to try to look at Americans through the eyes of foreign visi?tors. I am confident that the values listed in this booklet describe most (but not all) Americans, and that understand?ing these values can help you, the international visitor, un?derstand Americans.

It is my belief that if foreign visitors really understand how deeply these 13 values are ingrained in Americans, they will then be able to understand 95 % of American actions which might otherwise appear "strange"confusingor "unbelievable" when evaluated from the perspective of the foreigners' own society and its values.

The different behaviour of a people or a culture make sense only when seen through the basic beliefs, assumptions and values of that particular group. When you encounter an action, or hear a statement in the United States which surpri?ses you, try to see it as an expression of one or more of the values listed in this booklet.

1.An ordinary American can't tell you his/her value system
because_________ .

 A.     this is something an American lives by

B.     everyone will have his/her own value system

C.     he/she has never thought about it

D.     values are something often in his/her thought

2.The author lists 13 values in his booklet to .

 A.     invite foreigners to visit America

B.     look at Americans through the eyes of foreign visitors

C.     describe the confusing actions of most Americans

D.     help international visitors understand Americans

3. The underlined word "ingrained" in Paragraph 3 most probably means "__________ ,

A. rooted in minds                   B.  found in grains

C.  planted for food                D.  prepared with grains

4. Visitors sometimes find Americans behave in a strange, con?fusing or unbelievable way probably because .

 A.     Americans are hard to understand

B.     Americans have values which are entirely different from their own

C.     they view Americans according to the values in their own society

D.     it is difficult to understand any people when you first encounter them

This summer, you can experience all of these things, and more.All you need is an Internet connection and your imagination.

A recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that kids spend an average of 1 hour and 29 minutes online each day.Many kids like to use that time to chat with friends, play games or check e-mails.But next time you get on the Web, try exploring the world instead.“With the Internet, you can go back 11,000 years in time, or go 11,000 kilometers across the planet,” said Russell, Web search expert of Google.“The whole scope of history and the world is open to you.”

There is a wealth of information to be found online.For example, if your family is going on vacation somewhere, do a quick online search on the area before you even get in the car.“What’s the background of the place; what’s the history?” says Russell.“I like to tell my kids, ‘Whenever you have a question, whenever you have a doubt, search it out.’”
