I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled(貼標(biāo)簽)everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.

War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed! ”Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.

The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled(爬)under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.

Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks. ”

Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.

The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet，chat and go where we’ve never been before．

But just as in face to face communication，there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line．1. Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes．

For anything you’re about to send，ask yourself，“Would I say this to the person’s face？”If the answer is no，rewrite and reread．2. .

If someone in the chat room is rude to you，your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner．But try not to do so．3. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member，try to fix the situation by politely discussing it．Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room．

4. Offer advice when asked by newcomers，as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate．When someone makes a mistake，whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer，be kind about it．If it’s a small mistake，you may not need to say anything．Even if you feel strongly about it，think twice before saying anything．Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else．5. At the same time，if you find you are wrong，be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended．

It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as age，sex，and marital status．Unless you know the person very well，and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information，don’t ask such questions．

A．Everyone was new to the network once．

B．If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake，point it out politely．

C．It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online．

D．The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated．

F．When you send short messages to a person online，you must say something beautiful to hear．

G．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying words to a person’s face．

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來源：2014-2015學(xué)年遼寧省高三12月月考英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

A

A drunken burglar in the Orrell Park area of Liverpool, ended up leaping out of a window after a 10-year-old girl asked him to prove he was a superhero.

The drunken thief who pretended he was Superman to stop a child raising the alarm has been caught after he leapt from the apartment building in his pants to make the girl convinced.

Theif Ethan Adamson, 25, told police that he had broken into a fifth-floor flat after a drinking session, believing it was empty.

But he was horrified when the owner’s 10-year-old daughter woke up while he was there.

From his hospital bed, the thief told reporters, “To keep her quiet, I told her I was really Superman and I’d soon be flying off back to my secret headquarters.”

“She called my bluff (向…攤牌) and told me, ‘If you’re Superman, show me you can fly or I’ll scream’.

“I had no choice so I stripped to my pants to look more like a superhero and went to the window. I saw another roof below and I thought I could make it but it turned out to be a lot further down than thought. I know it doesn’t make sense but it did to me when I was drunk.”

Police later found him on the roof in just his yellow pants, covered in cuts and bruises after a baffled neighbor heard his cries of pain.

He now faces seven years behind bars for burglary.

Police spokesman Frank Armado said, “ He was in quite a serious state and couldn’t move until we got up there using ladders. He was treated for his injuries and we got him some fresh clothes, before taking him to hospital where he is being kept under guard until he is well enough to be arrested.”

1.What does the underlined part in the passage mean?

A. I could land safely on the roof.

B. I could make the girl trust me.

C. I could prove I was a superhero.

D. I could make a successful escape.

2.What’s the right order of the event?

a. Ethan Adamson told reporters of the burglary.

b. The 10-year-old girl called Ethan Adamson’s bluff.

c. Ethan Adamson attended a drinking session.

d. Ethan Adamson leapt out of a window.

A. cabd B. dbca

C. cbda D.dcab

3.What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?

A. To report on a joking burglary

B. To call our attention to the burglary.

C. To explain how the burglar was caught.

D. To look back on an adventure story.
