A Municipal Report(Adapted from a story by O．Henry)(Ⅱ)

Azalea Adair herself opened the door when I knocked．She was about 50 years old．Her white hair was pulled back from her small，tired face．She wore a pale yellow dress．It was old，but very clean．

Azalea Adair led me into her living room．A damaged table，three chairs and an old red sofa were in the center of the floor．

Azalea Adair and I sat down at the table and began to talk．I told her about the magazine's offer an she told me about herself．She was from an old southern family．Her father had been a judge．

Azalea Adair told me she had never traveled or even attended school．Her parents taught her at home with private teachers．We finished our meeting．I promised to return with the agreement the next day, and rose to leave．

At that moment，someone knocked at the back door．Azalea Adair whispered a soft apology and went to answer the caller．She came back a minute later with bright eyes and pink cheeks．She looked ten year younger．“You must have a cup of tea before you go，”she said．She shook a little bell on the table，and small black girl about twelve years old ran into the room．

Azalea Adair opened a tiny old purse and took out a dollar bill．It had been fixed with a piece of blue paper and the upper right hand comer was missing．It was the dollar I had given to Uncle Caesar．“Go to Mr．Baker's store，Impy ,”she said，“and get me 25 cents' worth of tea and ten cents' worth of sugar cakes． And please hurry．”

The child ran out of the room．We heard the back door close．Then the girl screamed．Her cry mixed with a man's angry voice．Azalea Adair stood up．Her face showed no emotion as she left the room．I heard the man's rough voice and her gentle one．Then a door slammed and she came back into the room．“I am sorry，but I won't be able to offer you any tea after all，” she said．“It seems that Mr．Baker has no more tea．Perhaps he will find some for our visit tomorrow．”

We said good-bye．I went back to my hotel．

Just before dinner, Major Wentworth Caswell found me．It was impossible to avoid him．He insisted on buying me a drink and pulled two one-dollar bills from his pocket．Again I saw a torn dollar fixed with blue paper, with a corner missing．It was the one I gave Uncle Caesar．How strange，I thought． I wondered how Caswell got it．

63．We can judge from her behavior that Miss Adair was       ．

A．polite and elegant      B．confident and determined

A．Uncle Caesar    B．Mr．Baker    C．Caswell  D．A stranger

66．When the narrator saw Caswell again at his hotel，he was surprised         ．

“Be nice to people.” This sounds like a platitude（老生常談）,but I’ll never forget my father’s words. I was 10, and I had been mean to someone. He said, “There is no point in being mean to anyone at any time. You never know who you’re going to meet later in life. And by the way, you don’t change anything by being mean. Usually you don’t get anywhere.”

“Remember you can do anything you want to do. Don’t let anyone say, ‘You’re not smart enough, it’s too hard, it’s a foolish idea, no one has done that before, girls don’t do that.’ ”My mom gave me that advice in 1973. And it allowed me to never worry what others were saying about my career direction.

“Always do the best job you can do at whatever you’re assigned（分派）,even if you think it’s boring.” Jerry Parkinson, my boss at P&G, told me this in 1979. Here I was fresh out of Harvard Business School(HBS), and I was assigned to determine how big the hole in the Ivory shampoo bottle should be: 3/8 of an inch or 1/8 of an inch. I did research, focus groups and I would come home at night wondering how I had gone from HBS to this. But later I realized any job you’re given is an opportunity to prove yourself.

“Don’t be a credit hog. If you’re constantly in the neighborhood of good things, good things will happen to you.” Tom Tierney, who was my boss at Bain in 1981 and is now on the eBay board, told me this. It’s true that you get ahead by praising other people.

Finally, in 1998, I was in New York watching the ticker as eBay went public. My husband is a surgeon（外科醫(yī)生）.I called him and told him the great news. And he said, “That’s nice. But Meg, remember that it’s not brain surgery.”

1. We can learn that ______ from the passage.

   A. “Be nice to people” is the topic that people like

   B. it’s not necessary for us all to be too mean at any time

   C. I never forget any word that father spoke to me

   D. we won’t be successful if we are too mean to others

2. How many pieces of advice were given by her family?

   A. Two.       B. Four.        C. Three.        D. One.

3.This passage was written by _____ order.

   A. story development      B. time      C. working conditions       D. ideas

4. The author’s husband is more concerned _____ than eBay’s going public.

   A. his success           B. opportunity to prove himself   

   C. brain surgery          D. his career

5. What’s the main idea of the whole passage?

   A. Advice in life really made a difference to us.

   B. We should be nice to people around us.

   C. People can succeed by praising others.

   D. Too mean persons will get nothing from life.

科目：高中英語 來源：20102011江西吉安一中高二下學期第二次月考英語試題 題型：閱讀理解

Fans of the British royal family around the world are making plans for April 29th, 2011. That’s the date that Prince William and Catherine Middleton are to tie the knot at Westminster Abbey in London.

A royal wedding is a rare and unique event in Britain so for many it’s something worth celebrating, particularly if you are in the business of making memorabilia (收藏品).

Producers of these souvenirs are wasting no time in manufacturing key rings, mugs, teapots and tea towels, mostly with the faces of the happy couple emblazoned on the front. These are the must buy items that royal followers want to get their hands on.

Some people may argue the royal wedding is a huge public cost but production and sale of memorabilia is good for business. Former politician, Lord Archer, has commented that, “In this age when we are trying to balance the books, the royal family are a great benefit to Great Britain Limited.”

A porcelain-making company, called Royal Crown Derby, is already manufacturing souvenir pottery. Louise Adams from the company says “we started designing, truly, about two years ago.” It is big business for China too, where much of the merchandise that marks the big event is made.

But why are people so keen to get their hands on a commemorative mug, so much so that one British supermarket has already seen them flying off the shelves?

Obviously, we like to remember an event like this and maybe it makes us feel as though we are part of the occasion. However their monetary value is likely to be low. Eric Knowles from the BBC’s Antiques Roadshow claims, “The vast majority of it will be worthless.”

Modern day souvenirs tend to be mass-produced making them cheap and easy to find. However limited edition or high-end items tend to keep their value and could be a better investment for the future.

But there is one thing we can guarantee that won’t be mass-produced and cheap. That’s the wedding dress for Princess Catherine, as Catherine Middleton will be known.

(   ) 1.. From the first three paragraphs we can learn that         .

    A. many fans of the British royal family will be invited to London on April 29th, 2011

    B. Prince William and Catherine Middleton are getting married at Westminster Abbey on April 29th,

2011

    C. many fans of the royal family will tie the knot on the same day in London

    D. fans of the royal family will join in making souvenirs

(   ) 2..  The obvious feature of the souvenirs mentioned in the passage is that         .

    A. they are all tiny and easy to carry

    B. some of them are linked with tea

    C. all of them are marked with dates and pictures

    D. most of them display the pictures of the couple

(   ) 3.. It can be inferred from the passage that         .

    A. the production of souvenirs has begun long before the big event

    B. the sale of souvenirs has not begun yet

    C. people buy souvenirs mainly for their monetary value

    D. production of souvenirs has little profit

(   ) 4..  Which of the following is a better investment according to the passage?

    A. Souvenirs that fly off the shelves.      B. Best-selling souvenirs

    C. Mass-produced souvenirs.             D. Souvenirs released limitedly.

(   ) 5..  What’s the writer’s attitude towards producing and selling souvenirs?

    A. Supportive.          B. Negative.        C. Uninterested.            D. Indifferent.
