科目:高中英語 來源: 題型:
When I was 17 ,I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last,someday you'll most certainly be right. " It made an impression on me,and since then,for the past 33 years,I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself:"If to?day was the last day of my life,would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And when?ever the answer has been "no" for too many days in a row,I know I need to change something.
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external (夕卜表的) expecta?tions,all pride,all fear of embarrassment or failure―these things just fall away in the face of death,leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning,and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas (肢腺) .I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable,and that I should ex?pect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order,which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure that everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.
I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy (活體檢視) ,where they stuck an endoscope (內窺鏡) down my throat,through my stomach and into my intestines (腸) , put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated (麻醉) ,but my wife,who was there,told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope,the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.
( ) 5. What does the last sentence of the passage imply?
A. After the surgery,the writer is now fully recovered from his illness.
B. Before the surgery,the writer knows it is hard for him to be well again.
C. During the surgery,the writer feels quite lucky the cancer is curable.
D. When the writer had the surgery,he is sure that cancer is nothing to fear.
( ) 6. The underlined words "get my affairs in order" in the third paragraph most probably means .
A. put my things in the case in order
B. have my things packed in order
C. arrange everything in proper trim
D. replace something as planned
( ) 7. Which of the following words best describes the author's attitude towards his cancer?
A. Disordered. B. Depressed. C. Disturbed. D. Deliberated.
( ) 8. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A. Cherish Life and Make It Meaningful
B. Appreciate Life and Pursuit What is Important
C. Understand Life and Ignore Any Kinds of Illness
D. Treasure Life and Enjoy Every Minute of It

科目:高中英語 來源: 題型:
It started in kindergarten. I made a resolution.
I was always curious about the globe and the World Book Encyclopedia in our house. I'd climb up to reach them and take them off the shelves. I learned a new big word continent.
"We live in a Melting Pot , ”I remember hearing that. I noticed maps of oceans,countries and people. I began drawing pictures of the many different people who had come from all over the world to live in the United States. I wanted to see the world!
Through travel,education,and amazing opportunities that came my way,I began my jour?ney.
In South America,I walked through rainforests with mountains,wild life,and ...it really rained!However,I heard a talk that rainforests are disappearing ...There're lots of languages in?cluding English in Africa and also lots of poor people who live in the disadvantaged communities hardly feeding themselves... In Europe,I found out that Big Ben is not a giant person. Going to the top of the Eiffel Tower,and riding on a gondola (a kind of boat) in Venice were exciting... Sitting in a plane,I had a chance to have a glance at one of Australia's most beautiful natural gifts,the Great Barrier Reef... Asia was special when I first saw pandas. And then,in Thai?land,it was the elephants. Seeing them made me realize that animals,big and small,need the help of people like you and me...
Antarctica is not an easy place to get to!I boarded a small plane with a scientist. While in route,depending on the weather,the pilot wasn't sure if we could land. And... we did!The scientist explained she had prepared twenty times before her first landing in Antarctica. It was like a foreign land―the land of penguins. They were all so busy but happy. My heart went out to them when I remembered the penguin movies I'd seen and the stories of sadness ...
"Think green". I began hearing scientists predict that global warming is underway. My resolution began to evolve:I need to not just hear the words,but to learn more about " going green."I used to hear, "You can't protect what you don't know. " The one thing I've learned in all my travels is that the planet needs our help right now. We all need to find a way to help in "going green".
( ) 5. How many continents has the author been to?

( ) 7. Compared with the scientist visiting Antarctica,the author was more .
A. fortunate B. careful C. energetic D. excited
( ) 8. What is the author's further resolution?
