Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to    36   in order to pay the high tuition (學(xué)費(fèi)) for my brother and me. They don’t act in the    37   waya that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is    38   luxurious (奢侈) for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the     39   .
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a question to ask you. Is there    40   between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. She didn’t answer immediately. She    41   her head and continued to sew the quilt.
I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her. I was    42   and I didn’t know what I should do. But at 1ast I heard my mother say the following words:
“Susan,” she said    43   , “Look at this thread. Sometimes it is    44   , but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt    45   . If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen    46   , but it’s really there. Love is    47   .”
I listened carefully but I    48   her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly    49   seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked    50   . It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother supported my father    51   on the country road.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan, don’t    52   me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.”    53   his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and    54   . But from this experience, I undentand that love is just    55   in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know what a ‘territory’ is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting(筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
【小題1】Some scientists believe that most of the time bird’s singing is actually _____________.

A．a(chǎn)n expression of happinessB．a(chǎn) way of warning
C．a(chǎn)n expression of angerD．a(chǎn) way of greeting
【小題2】What does the underlined word“territory”mean?
A．A place where families of other species are not accepted.
B．A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.
C．An area for which birds fight a against each other.
D．An area which a bird considers to be its own.
【小題3】Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?
A．Because they want to invite more friends.
B．Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
C．Because they want to find outsiders around.
D．Because they want to express their happiness.

The year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet (彗星) is heading towards the Earth . Most of it will miss our planet, but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth.
On 17 July , a piece four kilometers wide enters the Earth’s atmosphere with a massive explosion . About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the sea bed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned.
Before the waves reach South America, the second piece of the comet lands in Argentina. Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean. The cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. Millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already dead, but the north won’t escape for long. Because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. Crops are ruined. The sun won’t be seen again for many years. Wars break out as countries fight for food. A year later, no more than 10 million people remain alive.
Could it really happen? In fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the Earth. The dinosaurs were on the Earth for over 160 million years. Then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a piece of object in space. The dinosaurs couldn’t live through the cold climate that followed and they died out. Will we meet the same end?
1．What is mainly described in the passage?
A．A historic discovery .    B．An event of imagination
C．A research on space .    D．A scientific adventure.
2．When the first piece hits the South Atlantic, it causes  ________  .
A．a(chǎn)n earthquake   B．damages to cities   C．a(chǎn)n Earth explosion   D．huge waves
3．Why can’t the northern half of the earth escape for long ?
A．Because the land is covered with water
B．Because the light and heat from the sun can not reach the earth .
C．Because people there can not live at the temperature of zero .
D．Because wars break out among countries .
4．By giving the example of dinosaurs , the author tries to prove ________ .
A．a(chǎn)nimals could not live in the cold climate
B．what happened 65 million years ago was an invented story
C．the human beings will die out in 2094
D．the Earth could be hit by other objects in space

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年浙江省樂(lè)清市高三第四次月考英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Driving to a friend’s house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s rooftop. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it is that most city people --- myself included --- usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.

My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.

I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply.

Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We have television,

cell phones, pagers, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers.

Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought, “Before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. And perhaps write, but not in anger. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touched the moon.”

1.The best title for the passage would be _________.

A．Touched by the Moon                    B．The Pleasures of Modern Life

C．A Bottomless well of Silence               D．Break away from Modern life

2.The writer felt sorry for himself because __________.

A．there was too much pollution.

B．he failed to see the fullest moon.

C．he didn’t adapt to modern inventions

D．there were too many accidents on the road.

3.What impressed the writer most in the mountainous jungle of northern India?

A．No modern equipment.                   B．Complete silence.

C．The nice moon.                         D．The high mountain.

4.Modern things are mentioned mainly to ___________.

A．show that the writer likes city life very much.

B．tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life.

C．explain that people have less chances to enjoy nature.

D．show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them.

5.The author wrote the passage to __________.

A．express the feeling of returning to nature.

B．show the love for the moonlight.

C．a(chǎn)dvise modern people to learn to live.

D．want to communicate longing for modern life.
