On a freezing afternoon, I picked up a wallet in the street. There was no identification(身份證) inside. Just three dollars, and an old letter that looked as if it had been carried around for years. I opened the letter and saw that it had been written in 1924——almost 60 years ago. I read it carefully, hoping to find some clue to find the wallet’s owner.

It was a “Dear John” letter. The writer, in a delicate script(娟秀的字跡),told her lover, whose name was Michael, that her mother did not allow her to see him again. It was signed Hannah and her phone number. So I called.

“No, of course! We bought this house from Hannah thirty years ago. Hannah had to live in the nursing home many years ago. Maybe you can go there.”

Then I phoned the nursing home and was told, “Yes, Hannah is with us. Hannah was a sweet, silver-haired old-woman with a warm smile and friendly eyes. ”

I went up to the third floor of the nursing home. I showed her the wallet and the letter. The moment she saw it, she took a deep breath. “Young man,” she said, “this letter was the last contact I had with Michael. ” She then said deeply: “I loved him very much. But I was only sixteen and my mother felt I was too young. I never did marry, I guess no one ever matched up to Michael...”

I took the elevator to the first floor. As I stood at the door, holding the letter to the guard. He looked at it closely and said, “Hey, I know ,the letter is Mr. Goldstein’s. He’s always losing it.”

“Who’s Mr. Goldstein?” I asked. “He’s one of the old-timers on the eighth floor. That’s Michael Goldstein’s wallet, for sure. We went there where Michael Goldstein was reading a book. I told him I know where Hannah is.”He grew pale. “Hannah? You know where she is? How is she? When that letter came, my life ended. I never married. I guess I’ve always loved her.”

“Michael,” I said. “Come with me.” We three took the elevator to the third floor. We walked toward the Hannah’s room, still watching TV. Michael Goldstein went over to her.“Hannah,” he said softly. “Do you know me? Hannah, I’m Michael, Michael Goldstein. Do you remember?”

“Michael? Michael? It’s you!”He walked slowly and they embraced(擁抱)

tearfully. A perfect ending for a love affair that had lasted nearly 60 years.

1.What do you think is the best title of the passage?

科目：高中英語 來源：2015-2016學年山西榆社中學高二下期末考試英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

In a society such as the United States or Canada, which has many national, religious and cultural differences, people highly value individualism—the differences among people. Teachers place a lot of importance on the qualities that make each student special. The educational systems in these countries show these values. Students do not memorize all possible basic knowledge. Instead, they work individually and find answers by themselves. There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age, students learn to form their own ideas and opinions.

In most Asia societies, by contrast, the people have the same language, history and culture. Perhaps for this reason, the educational system in much of the orient reflects society's belief in group goals and purposes rather than individualism. Children in China, Japan and Korea often work together and help one another on assignments.

There are advantages and disadvantages of both systems of education. For example, one advantage of the system in Japan is that students there learn much more about maths, physics, biology and chemistry than American students by the end of high school. They also study more hours each day and more days each year than North Americans do. The system is difficult, but it prepares students for a society that values discipline and self-control. There is, however, a disadvantage. Memorization is an important learning method in Japanese schools, yet many students say that after an exam, they forget much of the information that they have memorized.

The advantage of the educational system in North America, on the other hand, is that students learn to think for themselves. The system prepares them for a society that values creative ideas. There is, however, a disadvantage. When students graduate from school, they haven't memorized as many basic rules and facts as students in other countries have.

1.The writer's purpose of writing this passage is________.

A. to share his idea with others in a new way

B. to introduce two different systems of education through contrast

C. to criticize the society that values memorization

D. to prepare students for society

2.Which is NOT true according to the passage?

A. The system of education in the West is more creative than that in the East.

B. Japanese students learn much more about science than American students.

C. Canadian students are more individual than Korean students.

D. Students in North America are not as friendly as those in Asia.

3.From the facts, we can infer that________.

A. Asian students are more likely to do better in teamwork than American students

B. Chinese students are more hard-working in their studies than Mexican students

C. the Western educational system is much better than the Eastern educational system

D. the Eastern educational system is as difficult as the Western educational system

4.What is the best title of the passage?

A. Advantages and disadvantages of educational system

B. The value of individualism

C. Educational system—an obvious difference between the East and the West

D. Memorization—an important learning method

Larry Ritsema was out for an early morning jog around his neighborhood one day. On a quiet street, he began to feel weak. Suddenly, everything went black. Larry fell to the ground.

Less than a minute later, Tom Alguire passed by on his bicycle. He caught sight of a man lying on the roadside, so he jumped off his bike and ran over. He recognized Larry immediately, because he had been Larry’s doctor for nearly 20 years.

Dr. Tom felt for a pulse (脈搏) at first. Finding none, he began to give Larry first aid. It wouldn’t restart Larry’s heart, but it would keep the blood flowing until someone else arrived. Tom could only hope someone would come by soon, at around six o’clock in the morning on a holiday weekend. Tom couldn’t stop pressing Larry’s chest to run for help — Larry’s brain cells would die without the blood. And Tom didn’t have a cell phone with him.

Soon, a car did drive by. But the driver ignored Tom’s appeal for help. What was he going to do? Tom was very worried. Finally, another car came down the road, driven by Michael Saliot, a U.S. Coast Guard Officer. Michael wasn’t one to pass up a chance to help a person in need. He quickly dialed 911.

Doctors then found that Larry had suffered a heart attack and there were severe blockages in two of Larry’s major arteries (動脈). Only the timely arrival of Dr. Tom saved his life.

How did Dr. Tom happen to be bicycling that morning, down that quiet street? It turned out that as Tom rode, his bike chain fell off. He spent about eight minutes fitting it back; otherwise, he would have seen nothing of Larry’s problem.

1.Doctor Tom gave Larry first aid in order to _____.

A. wake up Larry

B. keep Larry’s blood flowing

C. restart Larry’s pulse

D. stop Larry from bleeding

2.Why didn’t Tom call 911 for help?

A. He couldn’t stop pressing Larry’s chest.

B. He didn’t take a cell phone with him.

C. He was so nervous that he forgot to do it.

D. He was waiting for someone else for help.

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

A. Larry Ritsema went to work early by bike that morning.

B. Tom Alguire saw Larry when Larry fell to the ground.

C. Michael Saliot was a man always ready to help others.

D. Tom fitted his bike chain back after Larry was sent to hospital.

科目：高中英語 來源：2015-2016學年河北唐山開灤一中高二下期末英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

When a dirty and untidy orange cat showed up in the prison yard，I was one of the first to go out there and pet it．I hadn’t touched a cat or a dog in over 20 years．I spent at least 20 minutes，knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolled around，relaxed．What he was expressing outwardly, I was feeling inwardly．It was an amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching a li fe or another creature with something as simple as my care．

Over the next few days，there were other prisoners responding to the cat．Every yard period，a group of prisoners gathered t here．They stood around talking and taking turns petting the cat．These were guys you wouldn’t usually find talking to each other．Several times I saw an officer in the group，not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners．Bowls of milk and water appeared along with bread, wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keep the birds from getting it．

The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape．People said that the cat came to the right place．He's getting treated like a king．This was true．but as I watched I was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us．There was a lot of talk about what's wrong with prisons in America．We need more programs．We need more psychologists or treatment of various kinds．Some may even talk about making prisons more kind．But I think what we really need is a chance to practise our own kindness．Not receive it，but give it．After more than two decades here，I know kindness is not a value that's encouraged．It's often seen as a weakness．

Instead，the culture encourages keeping your head down，minding your own business，and never letting yourself be weak．

The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here．By simply saying，”I need some help here”，he did something important for us．He needed us．And we needed to be needed．I believe we all do．

1.Which of the following statements is true?

A．The cat was dirty because it was kept in prison．

B．The author realized the importance of practising kindness．

C．The officer in the prison enjoyed petting the cat．

D．The prisoners prepared food for both the cat and birds．

2.We can infer from the third paragraph that______．

A．caring for others is encouraged in American prisons

B．the American prison culture will be improved

C．showing love to others ca n make prisoners strong

D．the author is not content with the prison culture

3.What is the best title for the passage?

A．Animals Need Care．

B．Prison Culture is Important．

C．Caring Makes Us Human．

D．Everyone Needs to be Cared for．

4.In Paragraph 2，the author mentioned that “Several times I saw an officer in the group，not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners．” to______ ．

A．show us the officer and prisoners get along well with each other

B．show us the officer and prisoners all like the cat

C．show us the American prison culture does need improvement

D．show us the American prison culture is great
