Beldon and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apart．Both towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists．

Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon．The next day, this news appeared on page two of the town’s newspaper．The Beldon Post:

FIRE AT SEABREEZE

Late last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom．The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire．We say again to all our visitors： “Please don’t smoke cigarettes in bed．” This was Beldon’s first hotel fire for five years．

    The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one：

    ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRE

Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel．An angry holiday-maker said, “An electric lamp probably started the fire．The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels．When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp．” We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield．

What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident．There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel last August: that is one fact．Do we know anything else? Yes, we know that firemen went to the hotel．

    e．There has never been a fire in Canfield．

    A．b and c        B．a(chǎn) and d        C．c and e        D．a(chǎn) and c

3.The Canfield Times used the headline like this in order to make its readers think _______．

    A．hotels in Beldon often catch fire

    D．Beldon was a good place except that hotels there are not quite safe

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來源：20102011學(xué)年西藏拉薩中學(xué)高一下學(xué)期第三學(xué)段考試英語(yǔ)試題（漢文班） 題型：閱讀理解

It was on a warm day last summer. I was walking by the sea. The waves came and went. But I didn’t see them. I was lost in my thoughts.

A row of small holes soon caught my eyes. They lay in the sandy earth by the side of a road. In a minute I would have stepped on them.

What are these holes? I wondered. It had an answer soon. A fat, hairy insect crawled up from the earth. It had a wide tail. It was using the tail to dig in the ground.

The insect moved round and round in one spot(地點(diǎn)). Soon it had made another hole. When it was finished, the insect hid at the bottom. It covered its head with sand.

By now my thoughts of the early morning had gone. This new hole and the insect were all my world. So I sat quite still by the side of the road. And I waited.

As I watched, a small ant crossed the road. It passed my foot, and then it crossed the sandy earth. In a little while it reached the edge of the hole. I saw it start to fall in. The ant tried to turn back. But it couldn’t.

And then I knew. I knew why the holes were there. For just then the fat insect came up out of the hole. It ate the ant who was trapped there.

Later I learned the insect’s name. It’s called ant lion. It digs holes to catch ants.

I’ll never forget that day. The holes looked so small to me. But to the ant and the ant lion they were the whole world.

I took my walks by the sea that summer. But I never again learned as much as I did on the one.

1. What did the ant lion use to dig holes?

  A. Its tail       B. Its feet.            C. Its head         D. Its whole body

2. Why did the ant lion hide in the hole?

  A. To keep the sun away           B. So no one would catch it.

  C. So the ant wouldn’t see it        D. To keep warm.

3. Why did “I” sit down by the side of the road?

  A. To think                           B. To eat her lunch

C. To watch the little holes          D. To catch ants.

4.Why did the ant lion dig the holes?

  A. To play a game                 B. To catch its food

  C. To hide its eggs                   D. To hide from its enemy

5.Why did “I” never forget that day?

  A. Learned something          B. Had a nice time

  C. Saw the ant lion whenever she took a walk
