They travel in groups, noses just inches away form GPS screen. Suddenly a boy shouts “I found it!”, grinning and walking away from the group.
The others focus on their screens. “Me. too!” shouts another a moment later, until all six kids are crowded around a tree, pulling out a plastic bottle painted to look like tree bark. It doesn’t seem like much from the outside, but everyone gathers around, eager to see what’s inside.
This is geocaching, a high-tech game played using coordinates (坐標(biāo)) and global positioning systems to find hidden “treasures”.
It’s open to anyone—hiders or seekers—with a GPS and access to www.geocaching.com, where more than half a million users download and upload the coordinates of nearly 1 million hidden caches (儲(chǔ)藏物) and write about their experiences in this worldwide hunt.
Although some adventures can take hours or even days, the contents inside the actual cache usually aren’t valuable—often just a book or a small trinket (小飾品).
But participants aren’t in it for the treasure. They say it’s a great way to exercise. Or it brings them to remote destinations or historical sites. Some consider it an extreme sport, looking for geocaches hidden in mountains or in other nearly inaccessible locations.
Jeffrey Howe, 41, sees it as an opportunity to take kids on adventures to unfamiliar places. The youths at the shelter mostly come form the city, but geocaching has taken them to parks, the suburbs, and, once, to a 498-meter-high mountain.
“Geocaching is a way to give kids the idea that there’s a whole world out there other than what they know from their home neighborhoods and video games,” he said.
How does it work? Log onto the Website and enter your zip code (郵編), then search for caches near your location. Although posted coordinates will take a GPS within about 4.5 meters of a cache, a good hide will require seekers to do a bit of hunting around. Caches can’t be buried underground, nor can they be hidden on private property (財(cái)產(chǎn)), in dangerous locations or in some national parks.
Posts written about the find—whether successful or unsuccessful—are an important part of the game, with users proudly recording the places to which they’ve traveled.
1.    What is the meaning of the underlined word geocaching in paragraph 3?
A. A computer game played all over the world.
B. A TV series popular around the world.
C. An outdoor game of hiding and finding things.
D. A name of the latest GPS.
2.  In geocaching, which of the following statements about players is NOT TRUE?
A. Players need to have GPS to play the game.
B. Players need to download the coordinates to find the hidden caches.
C. Players need to be young and strong to the play the game.
D. Players are asked to hide things in parks or other places most people can reach.
3.    What is Jeffrey Howe’s attitude toward geocaching?
A. Negative.   B. Objective.  C. Uncertain.  D. Supportive.
4.    Many people like to play this game because __________.
A. they take pleasure in the process of the game
B. they like to visit historical sites
C. they want to find some treasure

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013屆廣東省六校高三第一次聯(lián)考英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together, they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: international competitions encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred. There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was there the tragic incident including the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by incidents caused mainly by smaller national contests.

One country received its second-place medals with visible anger after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were sure that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair. Their manager was in great anger when he said, “This wasn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension（停賽）of the team for at least three years.

Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages  aggressive patriotism(愛(ài)國(guó)主義).

1.According to the author, recently the Olympic Games have ______.

A．created goodwill between the nations

B．brought about only false national pride

C．hardly showed any international friendship

D．put an end to misunderstanding and hatred

2.The underlined word “disallowed”(in Paragraph 2) means “______”.

A．permitted to pass

B．considered as reasonable

C．won by the other side

D．refused to accept

3.What did the manager mean by saying, “Hockey and the International Hockey Federation 

are finished"?

A．His team would no longer take part in international games.

B．Hockey and the Federation are both ruined by the unfair decisions.

C．There should be no more Hockey matches organized by the Federation.

D．The Federation should break up.

4.The author gives the example in paragraph 2 to show ______.

A．how false national pride led to undesirable incidents in international games

B．that sportsmen are often against the final decisions

C．that competitiveness in the games discourages international friendship

D．that unfair decisions are common in the Olympic Games

5.What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?

A．The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved.

B．Athletes should compete as individuals in the Olympic Games.

C．A game should be played competitively rather than for the love of the game.

D．More and more athletes will compete for their own honor.

第三部分：閱讀理解（共15小題，每題2分，滿分30分）

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

For years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.

But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.

Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I'd have to say, "Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you know."

Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.

I wasn't sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living on a pretty lean, no-frills budget.

Then, one spring morning, on Mother's Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I realized that cars were tooting their horns as they drove by. I looked out the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow, because I saw things blowing around on all its branches. Then I put my glasses on - and I couldn't believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!

I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped all over that tree. Think of all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars! There was also a note attached: "IOU eight hours of digging time. Love, Marvin."

Marvin kept his promise, too. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen foot bed for me. And my other children bought me tools, ornaments, a trellis (棚架), a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.

That was three years ago. My garden's now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and weed or tend my flowers, I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they're right there with me.

I live up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where winters are long and cold, and summers are too short. But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out my window and think of the flowers I'll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes - every time.

I'm still not sure that money grows on trees.  But I know love does!(430 words)

1. By saying “Do you see a money tree outside .….,” the mother actually means “________”

A．Observation is the best teacher.          B．Seeing is believing.

         C．The outsider sees the most of the game.    D．It is not easy to gain money

2. The best title for the passage would probably be_______.

        A．My flower garden               B．Marvin helps to realize my dream

         C．Love in Michigan                 D．Money grows on trees

3. The underlined word “no - frills” in the fifth paragraphs is similar in meaning to_______.

         A．wasteful    B．tight  C．a(chǎn)bsurd        D．helpful

4. From the last but the third paragraph we can infer that the mother is_______

         A．divorced when she was young    B．not caring for her kids any longer

         C．a(chǎn)lone but not at all lonely       D．prouder with her garden than with her kids.
