 “How did you write your advertisement ?”asked one of the listeners ,a merchant .

“Here it is,” said the man ,taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, “Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening a black silk umbrella .The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No 10 Broad Street .”

“Now ,”said the merchant, “I often advertise ,and find that it pays me well .But by the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of extreme importance .let us try your umbrella again ,and if it fails ,I will buy you a new one. ”

The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote :“If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn’t wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street .He is well known .”

This appeared in the paper ,and on the following morning ,the man was astonished when he opened the front door.

D
Antarctica is the southernmost place on Earth, and it is larger than the United Sates and 95% of it is covered with ice. The ice is 5 kilometers thick at places and it never melts. At least that is what we thought, but let us keep it that way for now.
The ice seems to be alive as it works its way towards the seA. It forms an ice shelf over the water. The edge breaks away from the shelf and falls into the seA. From here it drifts. Now big pieces of ice become icebergs that can be 160 km long. They now drift north until they finally melt and become part of the ocean. This process is part of a bigger process which in turn forms a cooling system for Earth. This is so important that no country is allowed to control this areA. The treaty (agreement) signed by 12 countries at first and later joined by more, was to prevent any country harming the planet with irresponsible behavior.
The treaty basically states that:
Antarctica can be used for peaceful purposes only.
No country may build a military base there.
No country may do a nuclear test there.
No country may dump nuclear waste there.
Scientists working there will share their information.
Some other rules are there to protect the penguins and seals.
No dogs may run loose.
No planes may land near large groups of animals.
No guns, explosives, or tractors may be used near the animals.
Most important is that every member can inspect any of the other bases if he suspects that the treaty rules are being broken.
While the treaty is not foolproof(萬無一失的), it does play a very important part in the protection of AntarcticA. The more people realize the effects that pollution has on this continent, the bigger the pressure will be on Governments to change the way they look at pollution.
69.Why was it important to sign a treaty for Antarctica?
A.Because the ice on Antarctica will finally melt into the ocean.
B.Because Antarctica is covered with 5 kilometers thick ice.
C.Because Antarctica balances the temperature of Earth.
D.Because there are many big icebergs in AntarcticA.
70.What is the process of the movement of ice in Antarctica?
A.Ice shelf---sea water---iceberg---ice.
B.Sea water---ice---iceberg---ice shelf.
C.Iceberg---ice shelf---ice---sea water.
D.Ice---ice shelf---iceberg---sea water.
71.What is included in the Antarctica treaty?
A.There is no secret research information in AntarcticA.
B.Dogs are not allowed to be raised in AntarcticA.
C.Waste can’t be thrown away in AntarcticA.
D.People can’t bring their guns to AntarcticA.

科目:高中英語 來源:2011-2012學(xué)年四川省雅安中學(xué)高二上學(xué)期12月月考英語卷 題型:閱讀理解

In our life, we have rarely expressed our gratitude to the one who’d lived those years with us.In fact, we don’t have to wait for anniversaries to thank the ones close to us—the ones so easily overlooked. If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is this: give it now!While your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere, act on it. Saying thanks is such an easy way to add to the world’s happiness.
Saying thanks not only brightens someone else’s world, but it also brightens yours. If you’re feeling left out, unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others. It may be just the medicine you need.
Of course, there are times when you can’t express gratitude immediately. In that case don’t let embarrassment sink you into silence—speak up the first time you have the chance.
Once a young minister, Mark Brian, was sent to a remote parish of Kwakiutl Indians in British Columbia. He had been told that the Indians did not have a word for thank you. But Brian soon found that these people had exceptional generosity. Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to return every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with an equal or superior kindness. They do their thanks.
I wonder if we had no words in our vocabulary for thank you, would we do a better job of communicating our gratitude? Would we be more responsive, more sensitive and more caring?
Thankfulness sets in motion a chain of reaction that transforms people all around us—including ourselves, for no one ever misunderstands the melody of a grateful heart.
【小題1】In the first paragraph the writer mainly encourages us       .

A.to express our sincere thanks timely to those around us
B.never to overlook our close friends in daily life
C.to wait for a proper occasion to show our gratitude
D.to increase the world’s happiness by saying thanks
【小題2】When we say something for what others do for us, it ______.
A.is good for both us and people who help us
B.benefits the people who do something for us
C.wastes our and our friends’ time at the same time
D.does harm to both us and people who help us
【小題3】According to the writer,        could be the best way to prevent ourselves from being left out.
A.seeing a doctor to find the right medicine we need
B.expressing our gratitude in an easy way
C.speaking up the moment we have the chance
D.showing others actively we are willing to help them
【小題4】Mark Brain’s story is mentioned in the passage in order to show the fact that       .
A.the Indians didn’t have any words for appreciation
B.the Indians were particularly generous to others
C.some people may express their gratitude through different approaches
D.Mark Brain set the Indians an example to show saying thanks is very important
