When he was a boy, Tim was much influenced（影響） by the books about the sea, but in fact by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a dentist and as a result, Tim had the opportunity of meeting many doctors either at home or elsewhere. When he was fourteen he was already hanging around the clinic (診所) of a local doctor where he was supposed to help to wrap up medicine bottles, but was actually trying to listen to the conversations taking place between the doctor and his patients in the next room.
During the war Tim served in the Navy (海軍) as a surgeon (外科醫(yī)生). “That was the happiest time of my life. I was dealing with very real suffering and on the whole making a success of it.” In California he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a life-saver. He had proved his skills to himself and his ability to take decisions. Thus, while he was able to tell them what to do, he could feel he was saving them. After the war, he got married and chose to be a doctor in the countryside, working under an old doctor who was popular in the area, but who hated the sight of blood and believed that the secret of medicine was faith. This gave the young man many opportunities to go on working as a life-saver.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年浙江寧海正學(xué)中學(xué)高二下學(xué)期第一次階段性測(cè)試英語(yǔ)卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

Robert Burns, the son of a hard-working and intelligent farmer, was the oldest of seven children. Although always hard pressed financially, their father encouraged his sons with their education. As a result, Burns not only read the Scottish poetry of Ramsay and the collections by Hailes and Herd, but also the works of Pope, Locke, and Shakespeare.
By 1781, Burns had tried his hand at several agricultural jobs without success. Although he had begun writing, and his poems were spread widely in manuscript (手稿), none were published until 1786, when Burns published Chiefly in the Scottish Dialect (1786), which was an immediate success. Later Burns brought out a second edition of his poems at Edinburgh in 1787, and for two winters he was socially active in the Scottish city. In 1788 he retired to a farm at Ellis land. By 1791 Burns had failed as a farmer, and he moved to Dumfries, where he held a position as a tax collector. He died of illness at 37.
Burns’s art is at its best in songs such as My Heart’s in the Highlands. Some of his songs, such as Auld Lang Syne and Comin’ thro’ the Rye, are among the most familiar and best-loved songs in the English language. But his talent was not limited to songs; two descriptive pieces, Tam o’ Shanter and The Jolly Beggars, are among his masterpieces.
Burns had a fine sense of humor, which was reflected in his satirical (諷刺的), descriptive, and playful poems. His great popularity with the Scots lay in his ability to describe the life of his fellow rural Scots. His use of dialect brought an energetic, much-needed freshness into English poetry.
【小題1】 What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A．Burn had a wealthy childhood.
B．Burns was best loved by his parents.
C．Burns’s father cared more about his kids’ education.
D．Burns wanted to be a poet when he grew up.
【小題2】Robert was not officially accepted by readers until______.
A．1781B．1786C．1787D．1791
【小題3】 Robert made his best achievement in art by writing _______.
A．songsB．poemsC．storiesD．humors
【小題4】 What was Robert’s biggest contribution to English poetry?
A．His satirical style.B．His descriptiveness.
C．His fine sense of humor.D．His use of Scottish dialect.
【小題5】 We can conclude from the passage that Robert _______.
A．majored in agriculture when he was a student
B．earned a lot of money by publishing his poems
C．was a failure in managing farms but a success in art
D．showed much interest in collecting tax before he died

第三部分：閱讀理解(共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分)

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中(A、B、c和D)00，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

Ryan  and Lowry had been friends  since high school，  but it wasn’t until after college

that they hit on the idea of a home—care-products company．“We were shocked to learn how  toxic  cleaning  products  were，”  says  Ryan．  Why  couldn’t they  create  green products that would be just as environmentally pure as Aveda’s skin—and—hair—care lines?

When Ryan’s mom heard about the plan，she stared at him blankly: “I’ve never even seen  you  clean your room!” Not discouraged，Lowry experimented with  nontoxic ways to clean．  while  Ryan  focused on marketing．  In  February 2001，they  mixed their first four   cleaning  sprays  and  convinced the  managers  of  20  grocers to try them·  Once  they had their  approval，they tapped  friends  and  family  and pooled their  savings to  come  up  with $90，000 in seed money．

From the start，“Go big or go home’’was their mantra(口頭禪)．Their first financing— that $l million—was due to be signed on September 11, 2001. By the time they got it, two months later，says Ryan, "we had$16 in the bank and personally owed$300，000·”

Seeking a national retailer(零售商)proved just as troublesome．The friends set their sights on Target，known for its trendy，affordable goods．“But Target didn’t like the product or the brand，”recalled Ryan．“We thought the deal was dead，but then a new buyer saw that even though we weren’t selling big volumes, we were  profitable, just on a smaller scale．”They won over Target．

Consumers  were  hooked  on the  natural things  and  wonderful  fragrance. Today，the partners sell 130 products in more than 8,000 stores，and taxes are over$100 million. Such  rapid  growth has  at times  stressed the  men’s  friendship． “Eric  and  I  agree on ‘what’  but  never  on‘how，’”  says Lowry．  “Although  we  are  willing to  challenge  each  other，we come up with interesting and smarter solutions．There’s little fire and ice between us·

56．The underlined word“toxic”in Paragraph 1 most probably means——·

A．poisonous    B．dirty    C．expensive   D．troublesome

57．When Ryan told his mom his plan, ___________.

A．he knew his mom was sure to support him

B．his mom asked him to clean his room

C．his mom suspected his ability

D．he was discouraged by his mom

58．We can learn：from the third paragraph that __________________．

A．Ryan and Lowry wanted to gave up and go home at first

B．their plan didn’t go smoothly at the very beginning

C．they made profit two months later after their first financing

D．$1 million was not enough as their seed money

59．The partners’cleaning products are sold very well because——．

A．the products are made of natural material and smell nice

B．their friends and family offered to use their products

C．they cooperated with a well—known national retailer

D．they convinced 20 grocer managers to try them

60．It can be inferred from the—passage that——．

A．Aveda’s skin—and—hair-care lines are not so successful as Ryan and Lowry’s

B．Target is a famous environment-friendly cleaning brand

C．The friends "cooperation with Target was very successful

D．The partners get on well with each other in their business
