I was at the post office early that morning, hoping to be in and out in a short while. Yet, I    myself standing in a queue that went all the way into the hallway. I had never seen so many people there on a weekday. It seemed someone might have made an announcement,    customers to carry as many packages as they could. I also needed to have my own package    . The queue moved very slowly. My patience    and I got annoyed. The longer it took, the angrier I became. When I got to the counter finally, I finished my    quickly and briefly, and then walked past the queue that was now extending past the front door.
“Excuse me,” I said, trying not to be too pushy. Several people had to move    to make room for me to get to the     .
I stepped out,    about the service conditions. Thinking I was going to be late for my dentist appointment, I    into the parking lot.
A woman was coming across the lot in my    . She was walking with determination, and each step sounded very    . I noticed that she looked as if she could breathe fire. It stopped me in my tracks. Had I looked like that? Her body language said that she was having a      day. My anger melted away. I wished I could wrap her in a      but I was a stranger. So I did what I could in a minute    she hurried past me-I smiled. In a second everything changed. She was astonished, then somewhat    . Then her face softened and her shoulders    . I saw her take a deep breath. Her pace slowed and she smiled back at me as we passed each other.
I continued to smile all the way to my car. Wow, it’s amazing    a simple smile can do.
From then on, I became aware of people’s     and my own, the way we show our feelings. Now I use that    every day to let it      me that when facing the world, I can try a smile.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

  Centuries ago, man discovered that removing moisture from food helps to store it, and that the easiest way to do this is to expose the food to sun and wind.
All foods including water — cabbage and other leaf vegetables contains as much as 93% water, potatoes and other root vegetables 80%, lean (瘦的) meat 75% and fish, anything from 80% to 60%, depending on how fatty it is. If this water is removed, the activity of the bacteria which cause food to go bad is controlled.
Nowadays most foods are dried mechanically. The conventional method of such dehydration (脫水) is to put food in chambers (室) through which hot air is blown at temperature of about ll0'C at entry to about 43'C at exit. This is the usual method for drying such things as vegetables, minced meat, and fish.
Liquids such as milk, coffee, tea, soups and eggs may be dried by pouring them over a heated steel cylinder (圓筒), then put them into a chamber through which a current of hot air passes. In the first process, the dried material comes off the roller (滾筒) as a thin film which is then broken up into small, though still relatively flakes (薄片). In the second process it falls to the bottom of the chamber as small powder. Where recognizable pieces of meat and vegetables are required, as in soup, the ingredients (成分) are dried separately and then mixed.
Dried foods take up less room and weigh less than the same food packed in cans or
frozen, and they do not need to be stored in special conditions. For these reasons they
are invaluable to the climbers, explorers and soldiers in battle, who have little storage
space. They are also popular with housewives because it takes so little time to cook
them.
小題1:It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A.the rattier fish contain as much water as the lean one
B.the rattier the fish is, the more water it may contain
C.a(chǎn) fatty fish holds less water than a lean one
D.the water content of fish has nothing to do with the content of their fat
小題2: The underlined word "conventional" in Paragraph 3 can most probably be replaced by _________.
A.particularB.scientificC.usualD.special
小題3:Which of the following statements is NOT true about drying food?
A.The removal of water in food helps prevent it from going rotten.
B.The open-air method of drying food has been known for hundreds of years.
C.In the course of dehydration, the temperature of hot current coming from entry to exit is gradually going up.
D.The process of drying liquids is much more complex than that of drying solid food.
小題4:The last paragraph mainly talks about __________.
A.the reason why housewives like dried food
B.the general convenience of dried food
C.the methods of storing food
D.the advantages of dried, canned and frozen food

On Saturday, Feb 12, 2000, two things happened that changed my life.
First of all, my baby sister got married. She was 26 this day, and yet to me she was still my baby sister.
I was happy, but also sad. Gone were the days of me bossing(支使) her around. My bossy behavior had once earned me the nickname Lucy. If you’re a fan of Peanuts, then you can clearly imagine my behavior as an older sister.
At one point, I left the wedding reception to get some air. I went outside and walked to a nearby playground. I’m not sure how long I sat there before my sister came and joined me. We talked about how we were both grown up. As she wiped a tear from my eye, she lovingly said, “You’ll always be Lucy to me.” We hugged.
Then, my cousin Mike walked over to tell us that it was time to cut the cake, and the second thing that changed my life that day came to pass.
“Hey, did you guys hear that Charles Schulz died today?” he said casually – as if it were no big deal. Then he took my sister’s arm and they turned to head back to the reception hall. “Coming?” they asked. “In a minute,” I replied, and I sat back down on the bench, dizzy from what Mike had just told me.
How could Charles Schulz be dead? He was my creator! He was almost like a father to me!
I had lost so many things on that day. My innocence had slipped away like a thief in the night. It was gone before I could do anything about it, taking with it all the treasures that I had held in my heart. I felt myself grow up in an instant. I saw, for the first time, what I really was – a 30-year-old woman with a husband of my own, and soon, a child of my own.
I took a deep breath and stood up from the bench. I turned and headed back to the hall, hoping I hadn’t missed the cutting of the cake. It was the day that my sister grew wings of her own and left the nest – the day that Lucy died, and I was born.
小題1:Why did the author feel sad at her sister’s wedding?
A.She was afraid of change.
B.Her sister was getting ready to move far away from her.
C.Her wonderful childhood with her sister had become a thing of the past.
D.She had nobody to turn to for help with housework.
小題2:When the author’s cousin told her that Charles Schulz had died, she __________.
A.felt a great sense of loss
B.burst into tears
C.thought he was joking
D.got angry at him for his attitude
小題3:What is implied when the author says that “Lucy died, and I was born”?
A.The author has realized how her sister must have felt about her and decided to change.
B.Lucy no longer matters to the author.
C.The author doesn’t like the nickname Lucy anymore.
D.The author is no longer sad and ready to face the fact that she is an adult.
小題4:The best title of the passage can be __________.
A.Two things changing my life
B.My baby sister’s wedding
C.Not Lucy anymore
D.Not innocent anymore

Several years ago, I worked as a truck driver for a company. On Saturdays I usually spent several hours doing something to keep my truck in good condition.
One Saturday, as I was cleaning my truck, I noticed the boss’s elderly father came out to ask his grandson to take him fishing after work. The grandson told him all about how much he would love to do that, but he just couldn’t because he had other plans already. The old man hobbled (蹣跚) off to the house.
Then I heard the grandson telling his dad, "I’m not taking that old man fishing! It’s worse than taking a kid."
That just broke my heart.
I quit working immediately and went home to fetch my fishing gear (漁具) and a chair. Then I came back and invited the old man to go fishing. He accepted happily.
When we got to the river, I let him sit in the chair at the edge of the water. It wasn’t long before he got a fish. He got one fish after another. His eyes were shining like a child. About half an hour later, he told me he was tired and needed to go home. So I took him and the fish home.
Two weeks later, the old man died. His family told me later that all he talked about during that time was his fishing trip. I am satisfied that I have taken an old man on his last fishing trip, but I am sorry that his family have lost their last chance. Whenever you get the chance, don’t forget about taking Grandpa fishing. Someday, you may be in the same place and you’ll want your family to care about you, too.
小題1:The writer wrote the passage mainly to ________.
A.tell us something about his work
B.tell us about a fishing experience
C.persuade us to take Grandpa fishing
D.persuade us to care about the elderly
小題2:The old man’s Grandson refused to fish with him because ______.
A.he had something more important to do that day
B.he didn’t like to fish with an old man
C.he was tired of his job and he wanted to rest
D.he preferred fishing with a child
小題3:What’s the possible meaning of the underlined word "quit"?
A.startB.stopC.imagineD.try
小題4:According to the passage, we can infer(推斷) that the author is _______.
A.willing to make his boss happy
B.in need of care from his family
C.prefers fishing to his work
D.kind and warm-hearted

Car Talk
When I got the driving license last summer, Mom and I took our first trip around an empty parking lot. Then I found that my mother was not the best teacher for me. It wasn't that she shouted, or told me that I was doing poorly. As you can imagine, my mother's "helpful instructions" only managed to make me more nervous.
Since I could no longer practice with her, the job was placed in the hands of my father. The idea of learning from Dad was not one that thrilled me. I loved him dearly, but I just did not see Dad as someone I could be comfortable learning from. He almost never talked. We shared a typical father-daughter relationship. He'd ask how school was, and I'd say it was fine. Unfortunately, that was the most of our conversations. Spending hours alone with someone who might as well have been a stranger really scared me.
As we got into the car that first time, I was not surprised at what happened. Dad and I drove around, saying almost nothing, aside from a few instructions on how to turn. As my lessons went on, however, things began to change. Dad would turn the radio up so I could fully appreciate his favorite Stones music. And he actually began talking. I was soon hearing about past failed dates, "basic body" gym class, and other tales from his past, including some of his first meeting with Mom.
Dad' s sudden chattiness was shocking until I thought about why he was telling me so much in the car. In all the years that I had wondered why my father never spoke that much, I had never stopped to consider that it was because I had never bothered to listen. Homework, friends, and even TV had all called me away from him, and, consequently, I never thought my quiet father had anything to say.
Since I began driving with him, my driving skill has greatly increased. More important, though, is that my knowledge of who my father is has also increased. Just living with him wasn't enough—it took driving with him for me to get to know someone who was a mystery.
