科目:高中英語 來源:2010年河北省邯鄲市高三第二次英語試題 題型:閱讀理解

After more than a year of bitter political debate, President Obama sat down in the White House East Room on March 23 and signed the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law with a pen,and then another pen,and another. Obama used 22 pens to sign the $938 billion health care bill.

The practice of using different pens to sign important legislation(法規(guī))dates at least as far back as Franklin Roosevelt. The reason is fairly simple. The pen used to sign historic legislation itself becomes a historical artifact. The more pens a President uses, the more thank-you gifts he can offer to those who helped create that piece of history. The White House often give pens to supporters of the newly signed legislation. When Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act in 1964, he reportedly used more than 75 pens and gave one of the first ones to Martin Luther King Jr. And in 1996, President Clinton gave the four pens he used to sign the Line-Item Veto bill to those most likely to appreciate the bill's consequence.

    Once they're given away, some pens end up in museums; others are displayed proudly in recipients'(接受者) offices or homes. But they sometimes appear again, like in the 2008 presidential campaign(競選活動(dòng)), when John Macain promised to use the same pen given to him by President Reagan to cut pork from the federal budget.

Not every President goes for the multipen signature, however. President George W. Bush preferred signing bills with only one pen and then offering several unused "gift" pens as souvenirs.

 

1..We can learn from paragraph 1 that the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act        .

A. has been passed easily

B. was put forward one year ago

C. becomes law in the USA

D. is unimportant

2.How are the pens dealt with after being used by President Obama?

A. Supporters of the newly signed legislation are likely to get some of them.

B. Obama will keep them.

C. They will be just set aside

D. They will be sold to the public at a high price.

3.What can we learn about John Macain?

A. He was ever President in the USA.

B. He took part in the 2008 presidential campaign.

C. He never used the pen given by Reagan.

D. He was only concerned about his own business.    

4.What does this passage mainly tell us ?[來源:學(xué)?。網(wǎng)]

A. Obama signed the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

B. It is a practice to use multiple pens to sign important legislation in the USA.

C. Pens are necessary in the signature.

D. All the presidents like the multipen signature.

科目:高中英語 來源:2009-2010學(xué)年江蘇省高二下學(xué)期期中考試(英語) 題型:閱讀理解

One would have to be a fool to overlook the importance of using positive thinking for you rather than allowing negative thinking to work against you. In recent years, research in psychopharmacology (精神藥理學(xué)) has proved what many people have known over the centuries: a positive attitude is good for you, good for your health, good for your wealth, good for everything. Researchers found that a positive attitude produces a specific chemical reaction which makes people feel better, while negative thinking results in a decline of hormone (荷爾蒙) and shuts down the immune (免疫的) system. This leads to illness and depression. Positive thoughts will make you feel better. Even if you must begin by literally forcing yourself to be positive (faking it, so to speak), it will become contagious (會(huì)傳播的) and the positive thoughts will generate nice little w*w^w..c~o*mchemicals and good feelings which will reinforce the positive thoughts.

For example, if you force yourself to smile or laugh, even when you don't feel like smiling or laughing, if you keep at it for a few minutes, you will soon feel like it. Feelings can generate thoughts, but thoughts can also generate feelings. Control your thoughts and you can control your feelings. Positive thinking is important in all aspects of our lives. There is probably no single factor more important in determining your success in achieving your career objectives than your own attitude.

It's often been said that in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. And in the office of militant (好戰(zhàn)) negativism, the positive workers shine like gold. You cannot control external events, but you can learn to control your reaction to those events and thereby have a positive attitude and be happy. This vital key to success is totally within your control. Use it.

67. We can infer from the passage that         .

A. positive thinking can cure you of your diseases

B. positive thinking can easily be generated by anyone

C. a decline of hormone may cause you to be depressed

D. a specific chemical reaction is the cause of negative thinking

68. According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A. Feeling and thoughts can generate each other.

B. It's easier to control thoughts than to control feelings.

C. Your success depends wholly on your attitude.

D. Keeping smiling will surely make you successful.

69. Just like a one-eyed man in the land of the blind, you should              .

A. take positive attitude in the office of militant negativism

B. be king in your office

C. pay no attention to what is going on around you

D. control your feeling to what is happening to you

70. The best title to the passage is               .

A. the Bad Effect of Negative Thinking     B. Why Should People Think

C. Positive Thinking Benefits People        D. Thinking: The Vital Way
