Dear Smith,

I’m an university student. I once think life at the university must be excellent, and now I have changed my mind . I had three roommate, and I was the last one to move in the dormitory. Last term, I got along peacefully and happy. But I find they are willing to be with me now. They don’t talk with me, and they have become colder towards me than ago. Many times, I wanted to talk with them about how I felt, but I failed to find an opening. I have been feeling sad and lonely. Although I am an honest student, but I can’t win true friendship.

Yours sincerely,

A Little Hero

A group of Italian soldiers led by a captain were advancing slowly toward the position of the enemy. They arrived at a farmhouse, in front of which sat a small boy, cutting a branch of a tree with his knife.

"What are you doing here?" asked the captain. "Why didn't you leave with your family?"

  "I don't have any family," said the boy. "I'm an orphan. I used to work for the family that lived here. They've gone, but I stayed in order to see the fighting."

  "Have you seen any Austrians pass by here?"

  "Not within the last three days."

  "Do you think you could climb that tree and tell me whether you see anything of the Austrians in the distance?"

  "Sure!"

  In a few minutes the boy was at the top of the tree.

  "Look straight ahead," cried the captain, "and tell me what you see."

  "Two men on horseback - nothing else."

  "How far away?"

  "About a mile and a half. They're standing still." ….

  "They're shooting at me," said the boy. "but don't worry. Let me tell you what's to the left. Well, there's a church and I think I see... "

   A third bullet passed, and the boy was seen to fall suddenly from the tree, dead.

  "Poor boy!" said the captain, covering the boy's body with a national flag and saying, "He died like a soldier and we must bury him like a soldier."

Soon it was covered with flowers. He gave his life to his country.

科目:高中英語 來源:20102011年廣東省高一下期末考試英語題 題型:閱讀理解

I’m glad to find this comment which has some sort of support in this quest(尋求)I have to eat raw(未煮熟的)foods. I’m an unhealthy 49 years old and have come to the conclusion that it’s now or never, so I am taking a dive into the raw eating lifestyle.

I have to cook for my family and prepare what they want to eat. I’m trying to plan out this better so I have some of these unusual foods ready for myself.

I’ve read several books written by Ann Wigmore and like her approach to the living foods.

Last week I attempted fasting(禁食)and failed. I lasted five days by having carrots, spinach, apples and other vegetarian diets I could get my hands on. I was doing fine until I drank some coffee. I kind of proved it in my mind to have the coffee but it only made me excited and then I couldn’t sleep well and felt hungry and weak. So I stopped and went back to the old way of eating with the family.

This week I started to make a drink called rejuvelac made of sprouted wheat(芽麥). This is fairly new to do for me and the drink smelled sort of musty(發(fā)霉的)and tasted kind of like a musty lemon. The kids tasted it and almost threw up but surprisingly it tasted good to me. It is supposed to help in digestion(消化).

I’ve made some attempts to grow wheat grass. I think I have figured that out as long as I keep it away from birds and our horses. I have two habits to get rid of, drinking coffee and smoking. I quit smoking last month but something happened, so I started up again. I’m very frustrated(受挫的) with the smoking and really have a desire to quit for good. Anyhow I will keep this updated on my progress.

1. The author must have ________ before she wrote this article.

A. hesitated at whether she should eat raw foods

B. never eaten raw foods

C. made up her mind to eat raw foods instead of cooked ones

D. been discouraged by her family from fasting

2.The books written by Ann Wigmore which the author has read are probably about ________.

A. fasting   

B. losing weight  

C. how to be on a diet  

D. approaches to eating raw foods

3.To the author, the drink made of sprouted wheat ________.

A. might help in digestion

B. might make people who drank it throw up

C. tasted good to anybody

D. was welcomed by the whole family

4. We can learn from the passage that ________ smoking.

A. the author has given up

B. the author will never give up

C. it’s hard for the author to quit

D. it’s easy for the author to quit

5.The author’s biggest worry at present is most probably ________.

A. that she can’t eat with her family

B. that she can’t get rid of drinking coffee and smoking

C. how to get used to raw foods

D. that she doesn’t know whether she should eat raw foods
