In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernardino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue（烤肉）restaurant, then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new idea: quick service，no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.
Their hamburgers were sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity（一致性）, for the brothers had developed a strict routine（程序）for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks’ sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became surprisingly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundred during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.
Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954 when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the special attraction of the brothers’ fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise（特許經(jīng)營(yíng)）other copies of their restaurants. The agreement included the right to duplicate（復(fù)制） the menu, the equipment, even their red and white buildings the golden arches（拱門(mén)）.
Today McDonald’s is really a household name. In 1976, McDonald’s had over＄1 billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most surprising successes in modern American business history.
小題1:This passage mainly talks about ＿＿＿.
A．the development of fast food services
B．how McDonald’s became a billion-dollar business

小題2:Mac and Dick managed all of the following business except ＿＿＿.
A．a(chǎn) drive-inB．a(chǎn) theater
C．a(chǎn) cinemaD．a(chǎn) barbecue restaurant
小題3: We may infer from this passage that ＿＿＿.
A．Mac and Dick McDonald never became wealthy, for they sold their ideas to Kroc
B．the place the McDonald brothers chose was the only source of the great popularity of their drive-in
C．forty years ago there were lots of fast-food restaurants
D．Ray Kroc was a good businessman
小題4:The passage suggests that ＿＿＿.
A．creativity is an important element of business success
B．Ray Kroc was the close partner of the McDonald brothers
C．Mac and Dick McDonald became broken after they sold their ideas to Ray Kroc
D．California is the best place to go into business

A．Today McDonald’s is very popular in the world.
B．The first twenty-two years of McDonald’s is the most surprising success in American business history.

This year’s World Food Prize will honor two leaders of hunger-fighting groups based  in the United States. The winners are David Beckmann of Bread for the World and Jo Luck of Heifer International. They will share the prize of 250,000 dollars. The World Food Prize usually goes to researchers or top policy officials. This is the first time it will recognize the work of nongovernmental groups.
Heifer International provides donated animals and training to farmers in 50 countries. Jo Luck remains president until next year. Under her leadership, the group’s budget grew from less than 10,000,000 dollars to more than 130,000,000 dollars. Jo Luck, “People pass on their gifts of not just animals but also gifts of training and leadership. We have seen cases where we have been gone 5 and 10 years and we go back and they have developed roads and built schools, and they have other communities receiving the animals and the training. You just give them those resources and that training and opportunity, and you cannot hold them back.” She told the story of a woman from a poor village in Zimbabwe. A family member helped send her to school in the United States with earnings from a donated milk goat. She received a doctoral degree. Jo Luck, “That is what a goat did. That is one example. The animal is only the catalyst（催化劑）. That is the beginning of many other things that follow.”
David Beckmann became president of Bread for the World in 1991. He is an economist and a Christian clergyman（牧師）. Bread for the World organizes people from religious and non-religious groups to write, call and visit members of Congress（國(guó)會(huì)）. The purpose is to support measures to improve the lives of the poor. David Beckmann points to big increase in American development assistance. He said, “I think that would not have happened without the support of hundreds of thousands of people and churches that are part of Bread for the World and that keep the pressure on their members of Congress.” The prize committee also credited his efforts with helping to increase aid to needy families in the United States.
小題1:The World Food Prize honors ________.
A．people who fight against hunger
B．researchers or top policy officials
C．people from nongovernmental groups
D．people who have advanced human development
小題2:Why does Jo Luck receive the prize?
A．Under her leadership, people develop roads and build schools.
B．She has served Heifer International for almost 20 years.
C．Under her leadership, Heifer International helps farmers in 50 countries.
D．She makes the group’s budget grow to more than 130 million.
小題3:What has David Beckmann done to deserve the prize?

It was 20 years ago. I was driving home with my 4-year-old son. Traffic was light. I was singing quietly along   36  the song playing on the radio. I   37  at the intersection and looked both ways. The road was   38 . I slowly started to make a right turn when suddenly a car rounded the curve at high speed and came   39  at me. I stomped (猛踩) on the brakes of my car killing the engine in the process. The speeder zoomed (疾馳) past my dead car   40  me by inches without even slowing down.
  41  I knew it, a stream of rude words was flying from my lips,   42  after the car and its driver. I then saw my son who was staring up at me   43 . With a red face and a(an)   44  smile I started the car, pulled back onto the road, and headed home.
Later that evening I was reading a book when I heard certain   45  words coming from my son’s bedroom. He was replaying the   46   over and over in his mind. Too   47  I realized the   48  of those words that had flown from my lips in that moment of   49 . It took a lot of talks about good language and bad language with my son to undo (消除)the   50  of that incident.
That   51  , however, did teach me just how strong words   52  be. It helped me to decide to stop swearing (咒罵) in my own life and to start using words that uplift and inspire instead. I slowly realized that language is a   53  from God and should be used to make our world better but not worse. I learned    54  that a few loving words can help a hurting heart, strengthen a   55  spirit, and lighten a heavy load. I pray then that all of your words today are full of love, joy, happiness, and light.

When a first-time father saw his newborn son, he immediately noticed the baby's ears obviously standing out from his head. He expressed his concern to the nurse that some children might tease his child. A doctor examined the baby and reassured the new dad that his son was healthy- the ears presented only a minor problem with its appearance.
But the nervous father persisted. He wondered if the child might suffer psychological effects of ridicule, or if they should consider plastic surgery. The nurse assured him that it was really no problem, and he should just wait to see if the boy grows into his ears.
The father finally felt more optimistic about his child, but now he worried about his wife's reaction to those large ears. She had been delivered by operation, and had not yet seen the child.
“She doesn't take things as easily as I do,” he said to the nurse.
By this time, the new mother was settled in the recovery room and ready to meet her new baby. The nurse went along with the dad to lend some support in case this inexperienced mother became upset about her baby's large ears.
The baby was in a receiving blanket with his head covered for the short trip through the cold air-conditioned corridor. The baby was placed in his mother's arms, who eased the blanket back so that she could look at her child for the first time.
She took one look at her baby's face and looked to her husband and gasped, “Oh, Honey! Look! He has your ears!”
No problem with Mom. She married those ears...and she loves the man to whom they are attached.
The poet Kahlil Gibran said, “Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.” It's hard to see the ears when you're looking into the light.
小題1:When the father first saw his baby, he was worried that________.
A．The baby might not grow up healthily
B．The baby might be laughed at by others.
C．The baby might disappoint its mother
D．the baby might have mental problems.
小題2:According to the doctor and nurse, the baby’s ears________.
A．could not function well.B．looked the same as others.
C．only caused a small problem.D．needed to have plastic surgery.
小題3: What is true about the baby’s mother?
A．She blamed her husband for the baby’s big ears.
B．She was the first to discover the baby’s large ears.
C．She suggested having an operation on the baby immediately.
D．She found something similar between the baby and its father.
小題4: What does the underlined word they refer to?
A．The ears.B．The parents
C．The doctor and nurse.D．The problems
小題5: What’s the function of the last paragraph?
A．To advise readers to listen carefully.
B．To draw a conclusion from the story.
C．To criticize the wrong attitude to physical beauty.
D．To stress the importance of doctor-patient relationship.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

I grew up in New Hampshire, a small town in South Canada, where in my father’s words for the seasons were “Spring, Summer, Fairtime and Winter!” At that time, a week-long fair was held in the town every autumn. Thousands of people from other towns came to sell and buy things. It was the busiest time of the year.
When “Fairtime” came, my grandma became the most “useful” and busiest person of the family. Grandma was a kind, well-educated old lady. She was good at cooking. All her rrelatives liked the foodshe cooked. During “fairtime”, they would come to live in her house and have meals there. Grandma was always happy to look after them.
Year after year, many people moved to big cities. There was no loner “Fairtime”. Grandma became very old and was gradually going blind. My parents and I moved to live with Granma in her house. We did our best to make her day-to-day life as comfortable as possible. I was at high school then. What I often did at home was to help Grandma with the daily newspaper’s crossword puzzle. However, she didn’t look happy. She often sat in her room for hours, without saying a word.
To attract people to move back, the Town Hall decided to reopen the Fair. One day, when I came back room school, I saw Grandma wearing her glasses, washing the dishes in the kitchen. With a big smile on her face, she looked a lot much younger. She told me that her two nieces would come. “They said the food I cooked was very delicious and they want to stay in my house again.” Grandma said happily. “They will stay here for one week and we can have a big party. That must be the busiest week I’ve had in years!”
I suddenly realized that Grandma didn’t want to be looked after. She wanted to be “useful”, appreciated and helpful.
小題1:Thousands of people came to the town to __________ at the Fair.
A．enjoy Grandma’s foodB．sell and buy things
C．learn to cookD．have a big party
小題2:Why was Grandma unhappy?
