D

Having an interview（面試）doesn’t sound like a big deal, just like getting good marks in college. You simply go in and meet someone, talk for a while, and then leave. Nothing to stress over, not the end of the world, but I’ve never been interviewed and I have my first one tomorrow for my job in Columbia.

I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about it and have decided that it shouldn’t matter all that much. It seems that the interview would only make a difference if the company is on the fence about you, or if the interview was unpleasant and they walk away thinking that you are too, then the officers might be encouraged to think about your request again. On the other hand, if you were in the “maybe” pile, a good interview could push you onto the list of accepted candidates（候選人）.

I know I shouldn’t worry. After all, they probably have already made up their minds about me. My essay was, to say the least, unique. The interview is at Starbucks. What does that mean? My friend, who did a lot of these interviews last year (and who was accepted to the company there), told me to wear jeans and a nice sweater. I was going to go with a skirt. The fact that it’s at Starbucks, however, is making me think that jeans might be more proper. And then there’s the other problem of knowing who my interviewer is. I discussed this with my music teacher, who suggested, “They'll probably be wearing something.” That good idea hadn’t crossed my mind, which just goes to show that my brain has stopped to function. Stress is taking over my life.

Tonight I will prepare. I will choose what to wear and what, if anything, to bring. I like to talk, so this should not be a problem. Hopefully when I get there I’ll find that this is actually the part of the process I’m most comfortable with. Until then I’ll spend my time preparing and hoping.

73. Before the interview, the author feels quite       .

A. lucky           B. easy             C. hopeless             D. excited

74. The author wants to wear jeans mainly because        .

A. the interviewer is fond of them

B. her friend likes them very much

C. her music teacher suggests her doing so

D. they are proper at Starbucks

75. The author seems to feel her          can do best to the interview.

A. clothes          B. degree           C. talking ability        D. college marks

76. The best title for the passage would be “      ”.

A. My learning trouble                  B. A good college

C. An interview                        D. Stress of life

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2014屆河北正定中學(xué)高三上學(xué)期第一次月考英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Writer Jean Stafford scoffed, “Happy  people don't need to have fun,” but studies show that the absence of feeling bad isn’t enough to make you feel good；you must try hard to find sources of feeling good. Research shows that regularly having fun is a key factor in having a happy life；people who have fun are 20 times more likely to feel happy.

    Recently, I noticed a pattern among activities that people find fun：Have a mission. There’s something about having a playful purpose，of trying to achieve something that makes an activity more fun.

    For example a friend told that she loved visiting flea markets（舊貨市場(chǎng)）and antique stores to look for old globes-not fancy ones，but cheap ones. She has a rule that she'll never pay more than＄20. She’s the kind of person who loves wandering around in those kinds of shops in any case，but having a mission makes it more fun, less aimless.

   For that matter，having a collection of any sort is a very popular way to have a mission. You get satisfaction whenever you find another piece of blue sea glass on the beach or another out-of-print book by Charlotte Yonge in an old bookstore.

   Taking photos is a common way to incorporate(使并入) a mission into traveling. Not only does this help keep memories vivid, it also makes you more attuned（協(xié)調(diào)一致）to your environment while traveling. For example，during my most recent visit to New Haven，I had a lot more fun wandering around once I set myself the mission of taking tourist photos of my own romance.

    Why is this true? The First Splendid Truth holds that to be happier，you have to think about feeling good and feeling right，in an atmosphere of growth. The more I’ve thought about happiness，the more surprised I’ve been at the importance of the “atmosphere of growth.” I think this is a huge engine of happiness, and when you have a mission, you create an atmosphere of growth whenever you pursue that mission.

    Have you found a way to have a mission? What is it and does it boost your happiness?

1.. According to the author, happy people____

A. don't need to have fun

B. don't have to be occupied with work

C. can have 20 times more fun than others

D. are always finding sources of feeling good

2.. What does the underlined phrase “Having a mission" mean in paragraph 2？

A. Have fun.                                          B. Join in an activity.

C. Find something interesting to do.                D: Hunting for a job.

3. The author explains the key factor in having a happy life by____.

A. making a comparison                         B. presenting numbers

C. stating common sense                      D. using examples

4.. What will be probably the best title?

A. How to live happily

B. Where to look for fun

C. The importance of feeling good

D. Having a mission can make you happier

Sure, it’s good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.

    And yes, it’s good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to relate to (理解)the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.

    But really, there’s one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do, “learning bursts right open,” says Evelyn Vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column（專欄） called “Teacher Says” for the Washington Post newspaper.

In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues, such as bullying(欺負(fù)人). 

As a kid in a primary or middle school, you’re at a wonderful stage in your life. You’re like a sponge(海綿), able to soak up lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you’re able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, and in most cases, is very excited to be the person who’s giving you all that material and helping you put it together. Remember, teachers are people, too, and they feel great if you’re open to what they’re teaching you. That’s why they wanted to be teachers in the first place --- to teach!

Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren’t going well, they won’t learn as well and won’t enjoy being in class.

1.The passage mainly talks about _____.

A. how to get along well with teachers

B. the importance of a good relation with teachers

C. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachers

D. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasant

A. learning becomes easier for you at once　　　　　

B. you find an opening to learning　　　　　

C. there’ll be more problems with learning　　　　　

D. there’ll be no problems with learning.

3.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. You are getting on well with your teachers, so you have more questions than others.

B. You find it comfortable to ask questions, so you can build a good relationship with teachers.

C. You have a good relationship with teacher, so you can turn to him/ her when in trouble.

D. You are in trouble, so you can build a good relationship with teachers.

4.Which of the comments is FALSE on teachers and their work according to the passage?

A. Teachers are excited even if you wouldn’t like to accept their teaching.

B. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.　　　　

C. Though few there are still some students who can learn even if they don’t like the teacher.　　

D. Having a bad relationship with your teachers does more or less harm to your studies.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013屆山西省沂州市高二下學(xué)期聯(lián)考英語(yǔ)試卷（B卷）（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Last night I had the best gift ever.

    My older son was reading a detective novel while my younger son was reading fairy tales. They were each in different rooms, engrossed in their books with no TV, music or anything else distracting (使分心) their attention.

    I read a lot during my childhood, curling (蜷縮) up in sofa or lying in bed. Like anyone else, I had lots of other interests, but once I discovered reading, I really enjoyed it. I read everything — books, magazines, newspapers, even the back of food packages if there was nothing else to read at the moment. I must thank my parents for their love of reading. Longing for more information and knowledge, my parents were always reading a lot.

    Today’s children are provided with a variety of choices. It is so easy for them to become uninterested in reading and to view it as boring, uncool and unnecessary. There are TVs with astonishing choices of programs; there are MP3 players with thousands of songs at their fingertips; there are the Internet and mobile phones.

    I’ve told my sons that reading comes with information, understanding and connection, each of which will help them at every stage in their lives now and forever. So when my sons were reading their books last night, I watched them, noticing them put a bookmark into their books. That’s the most amazing gift that I have ever received.

1.The best title for this passage is _____.

A. My Two Sons        B. An Amazing Gift   

C. My Favorite, Reading   D. Let’s Read Together

2.The phrase “engrossed in” in the second paragraph can be replaced by “_____”.

A. connected by       B. separated by      

C. devoted to     D. worried about

3.What does the author think of TVs, MP3 players, the Internet and mobile phones?

A. They are boring, uncool and unnecessary. 

B. They are too expensive for a family to afford.

C. They might distract children’s attention.

D. They might enrich children’s lives and make them happy.

4.According to the passage, the author’s best gift is _____.

A. her sons’ love for reading    B. reading books alone

C. bookmarks from her sons    D. having a happy family
