Hans Christian Andersen was a poor boy who lived in Denmark. His father, a shoemaker, had died, and his mother had married again.
Andersen’s father liked to read better than to make shoes. In the evenings, he had read aloud from The Arabian Nights. His wife understood very little of the book, but the boy, pretending to sleep, understood every word.
By day Hans Christian Anderson went to a house where old women worked as weavers. There he listened to the tales that the women told. In those days, there were almost as many tales in Denmark as there were people to tell them.
Among the tales told in the town of Odense, where Andersen was born in 1805, was one about a fairy who brought death to those who danced with her. To this tale, Hans Christian later added a story from his own life.
Once, when his father was still alive, a young lady ordered a pair of red shoes. When she refused to pay for them, unhappiness filled the poor shoemaker’s house. From that small tragedy and the story of the dancing fairy, the shoemaker’s son years later wrote the story that millions of people now know as The Red Shoes.
As a little girl, Hans Christian’s mother was sent out on the streets to beg. She did not want to beg, so she hid under one of the city bridges. She warmed her cold feet in her hands, for she had no shoes. She was afraid to go home. Years later, her son, in his pity for her and his anger at the world, wrote the angry story She’s No Good and the famous tale The Little Match Girl.
Through his genius, he changed every early experience, even his father’s death, into a fairy tale. One cold day his father showed him a white, woman-like figure among the frost patterns. “That is the snow queen,” said the shoemaker. “Soon she will be coming for me.” A few months later he died. And years later, Andersen turned that sad experience into a fairy tale, The Snow Queen.
【小題1】Which of the following is TRUE about Anderson when he was a boy?

A.His father had remarried before he died.
B.His mother was struck by The Arabian Night.
C.He enjoyed listening to stories very much.
D.He would help old weavers with their work.
【小題2】What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 imply?
A.Almost all tales from around the world once had their origin in Denmark.
B.The people in Denmark were very enthusiastic about telling tales.
C.The number of tales in Denmark was exactly equal to that of the people living there.
D.The people in Denmark loved doing nothing but tell stories to each other.
【小題3】How many of Anderson’s fairy tales are mentioned in the passage?
A.5. B.6. C.3. D.4.
【小題4】It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
A.The Red Shoes was based on a tragedy of Anderson’s family
B.Andersen’s genius as well as his early experience made him successful
C.Andersen was educated at home by his parents because of poverty
D.Anderson wrote The Snow Queen in memory of his parents
【小題5】Which is the best title of the passage?
A.Hans Christian Andersen’s Own Fairy Tales.
B.Hans Christian Andersen’s Family.
C.Hans Christian Andersen’s Bitter Experiences.
D.Hans Christian Andersen’s Considerate Parents.

One day an out of work mimic(滑稽演員) is visiting the zoo and attempts to earn some money as a street performer. As soon as he starts to draw the crowd,a zoo keeper grabs him and drags him into his office.

He offers the mimic a job to dress up as the gorilla until they can get another one. The mimic accepts.

So the next morning the mimic puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before the crowd comes. He discovers that it's a great job. He can sleep all he wants,play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mimic. However,eventually the crowds tire of him and he tires of just swinging on wires.

III. 閱讀理解

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

I’ve written 14 movies. My characters smoke in many of them, and they look cool and glamorous doing it. Smoking was an integral(必需的) part of many of my screenplays because I was a heavy smoker. It was part of a bad-boy image I’d cultivated for a long time— smoking, drinking, partying, rock ’n’ roll.

Smoking, I once believed, was every person’s right. The second-hand smoke was non-existent problem invented by professional do-gooders. I put all these views into my plays.

Remembering all this, I find it hard to forgive myself. I have been an accomplice (幫兇) to the murders of untold numbers of human beings. I am admitting this only because I have made a deal with God. Spare me, I said, and I will try to stop others from committing the same crimes I did.

Eighteen months ago I was diagnosed with throat cancer, the result of a lifetime of smoking. I am alive but disabled. Much of my larynx (喉) is gone. I have some difficulty speaking; others have some difficulty understanding me.

I haven’t smoked or drunk for 18 months now, though I still take it day by day and pray for help. I believe in prayer and exercise. I have walked five miles a day for a year, without missing even one day. Quitting smoking and drinking has taught me the hardest lesson I’ve ever learned about my own weakness; it has also given me the greatest affection and empathy(同感) for those still addicted.

I don’t think smoking is every person’s right anymore. I think smoking should be as illegal as heroin. I’m no longer such a bad boy. I go to church on Sunday. I’m desperate to see my four boys grow up. I want to do everything I can to undo the damage I have done with my own big-screen words and images.

Screen writers know, too, that some movie stars are more likely to play a part if they can smoke —because they are so addicted to smoking that they have difficulty stopping even during the shooting of a scene.

My hands are bloody; so are Hollywood’s. My cancer has caused me to attempt to cleanse me. I don’t wish my fate upon anyone in Hollywood, but I beg that Hollywood should stop putting it upon millions of others.

1. The main idea of this passage probably is _________.

A. the writer is ashamed of the bad effects his screenplays have had on human beings

B. the writer’s smoking experience nearly killed himself

C. the bad effects that Hollywood screenplay have brought to children

D. the determination of the writer to overcome his illness

2. How do you think the writer has realized his mistake?

A. So many people have found the habit of smoking due to his plays.

B. His plays have brought great harm to teenagers.

C. He himself suffered greatly from smoking.

D. His screenplays have been doing more and more harm to human beings.

3. What is the writer determined to do in future?

A. He has made up his mind to give up smoking forever.

B. He will try his best to prevent others from writing screen plays encouraging smoking.

C. He will try his best to bring up his four children.

D. He has decided to write his screenplays without smoking scenes.

4. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.

A. the writer will soon be recovered from his illness thanks to his exercise

B. the writer will soon die because of his deadly disease

C. smoking will be got rid of in all Hollywood films

D. smoking in Hollywood films is still doing great harm to human beings

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源: 題型:閱讀理解

What does the word “heart” mean? Strictly speaking, a heart is an organ of the physical body which pumps blood into the organism(生物體). The term “heart”, however, extends to more than the physical body.

When lovers separate, one will often claim to have a broken heart, yet remain living. A sad gent or lady will often grasp the area between the ribs(肋骨) at the center of the chest, and moan (呻吟) in sorrow over the lost lover. Physical or not, the heart in this case is also something that pumps life into the emotional body.

“Don’t lose heart,” says a friend to another who has been discouraged by one of life’s many trials. Now how can anyone lose a heart? I ask. Easily, by getting discouraged. Again, the heart becomes a symbol of pumping life into a system but not a physical one.

When one gets to the heart of the matter, she gets to its center which gives its meaning. When people beg, “Have a heart,” they are asking you to be kind hearted to recognize the soul in another. Having a heart to heart talk means sharing something from the center of our being with someone else. Speaking from the heart always implies communicating from what is real and essential in our lives.

Perhaps the most common definition of the word “heart”, therefore, should recognize that “heart” is something essential to every human being, whether it is physical or not.

 

77.The author writes this passage to         .

       A.correct others’ inexact explanations of the word “heart”

       B.tell readers a series of humorous stories

       C.discuss how to give a good definition to the word “heart”

       D.educate people to old positive attitude towards life

78.The underlined words “this case” (in Paragraph 2) refer to         .

       A.lovers’ separation B.the death of one’s lover

       C.one hurts oneself  D.one’s crying for his or her lover

79.According to the author, how can one lose a heart?

       A.By losing what one owns.  B.By feeling sad.

       C.By hurting others. D.By getting discouraged.

80.If you would like to have a heart to heart talk with someone,           .

       A.you will follow the other’s advice without hesitation

       B.you will give your own opinion in a direct way

       C.both of you will be honest as well as open minded

       D.both of you will talk about others’ affairs instead of yours
