Along a long path we came to a deep valley, on the far side of which the path led into some very thick bushes. Rather than push through up again and rejoin the path on the far side of the bushes.
As I climbed down into the valley a bird flew off h rock on which I had put my hand. On looking at the spot from which the bird had risen, I saw two eggs. They were the kind that I did not have in my collection, so I placed them carefully in my bag, wrapped in a little dry grass.
As we went further down the valley the sides became steeper and not far from where I had entered. It came to drop of about twelve to fourteen feet. The water that rushed down all these small valleys in the rainy season had worn the rock as glass. As it was too deep to climb down, I handed my gun to one of the men and slid down it. My feet had hardly touched the sandy bottom when the two men jumped down, one on each side of me. They quickly gave me the gun and asked me if I had heard the tiger. In fact, I had heard nothing; possibly because of the noise I made sliding down the rock. The men said they had heard a tiger growling somewhere nearby, but they did not know from which direction the noise had come.

1.綜合推理題。整篇文章向我們介紹了作者如何穿越山谷的探險(xiǎn)經(jīng)歷。A,C,D三項(xiàng)只是在他旅途過(guò)程中的小插曲,并不是他探險(xiǎn)的最終目的,所以應(yīng)排除。
2.句意理解題。答案見(jiàn)第二段最后一句。
3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由最后一段倒數(shù)第三句可知道那兩個(gè)人開(kāi)始聽(tīng)到了老虎的聲音,后來(lái)覺(jué)得聲音近了,但是他們始終沒(méi)有看見(jiàn)老虎。
4.內(nèi)容排序題。文章第一段提到了穿越灌木叢,然后走到山谷,在山谷中發(fā)現(xiàn)鳥(niǎo)蛋,然后又聽(tīng)到老虎的叫聲,所以正確的順序應(yīng)是“bushes”、“valley”和“find eggs”,最后是“hear the sound of tiger”。

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源: 題型:閱讀理解

It was an early September day, cool and bright and just right for running, and I was in the first few miles of a lO-knownmile race over a course with a few high hills. Still, I felt energetic; despite the hills it was going to be a fine run.
Just ahead of me was Peggy Mimno, a teacher from Mount Kiseo, New York. She too was running easily, moving along at my speed. The pace felt comfortable, so I decided to stay where I was; why pay attention to pace when she was setting such a nice one? I'd overtake(追上) her later on when she tired.
So I ran behind her. The course headed north for miles, wandered west for a hilly mile, then turned south again along a winding road. The race was getting harder. We had four miles left and already it was beginning to be real work.
Peggy overtook a young runner. She seemed to know him, for they exchanged a few cheerful words as she passed him. Their exchange worried me. You don't chat during a race unless you feeling good, and Peggy plainly was.
Still, I was close enough to overtake her if she tired, so I didn't give up hope completely. We were getting nearer to a long, punishing hill now and it would be the test. We were a mile from the finish line, so whatever happened on the hill would almost determine who crossed it first.
As I moved up the hill, my attention wandered for a few minutes. When I looked up, Peggy was moving away--first five yards, then ten, then more. Finally it was clear that there was no help of catching her. She beat me soundly.
There is an important lesson in that race. Women are thought to be weaker, slower and not nearly as skilled in sport. Yet as Peggy Mimno so clearly showed, the similarities between men and women runners are more important than differences. I have run with a number of women, and I can say it is often hard work

  1. 1.

    What did the writer think of the race in the beginning?

    1. A.
      It would be hard work
    2. B.
      It would be an easy race
    3. C.
      It would be a test of his strength
    4. D.
      It would be a good learning experience
  2. 2.

    What worried the writer when Peggy greeted the young runner?

    1. A.
      Peggy overtook the young runner
    2. B.
      Peggy was running energetically
    3. C.
      Peggy was laughing as the writer
    4. D.
      Peggy paid no attention to the writer
  3. 3.

    By saying "a long, punishing hill" (paragraph 5 ), the writer implies that _____________

    1. A.
      Peggy would fail to reach the hilltop
    2. B.
      men are more skilled at climbing hills
    3. C.
      overtaking Peggy would be easy
    4. D.
      climbing the hill would be a demanding task
  4. 4.

    What lesson does the writer learn from the race?

    1. A.
      Women are as good as men in sport
    2. B.
      Women are better at climbing hills
    3. C.
      He should have more training in a cross-country race
    4. D.
      He should set a quicker pace at the beginning of a race
