It was a Sunday morning, and I was in a terrible mood. Two of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn’t invited me. I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in. “Want to go for a ride, today, Beck? It’s a beautiful day.”

“No! Leave me alone!” Those were the last words I said to him that morning.

My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later. I forgot to be mad at them and went. I came home to find a note on the table. My mother put it where I would be sure to see it. “Dad has had an accident. Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital”.

When I reached the hospital, my mother came out and told me my father’s injuries were extensive. “Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911, thank God! If he had moved Daddy, there’s no telling what might have happened. A broken rib (肋骨) might have pierced (穿透) a lung....”

My mother may have said more, but I didn’t hear. I didn’t hear anything except those terrible words: Leave me alone. My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more. How much had I hurt him when I hurled (憤慨地說(shuō)出) those words at him earlier in the day?

It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation. I held his hand gently, afraid of hurting him.

“Daddy... I am so sorry....”

“It’s okay, sweetheart. I’ll be okay.”

“No,” I said, “I mean about what I said to you that day. You know, that morning?”

My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly. He looked at me and said, “Sweetheart, I don’t remember anything about that day, not before, during or after the accident. I remember kissing you goodnight the night before, though.” He managed a weak smile.

My English teacher once told me that words have immeasurable power. They can hurt or they can heal. And we all have the power to choose our words. I intend to do that very carefully from now on.

The author was in bad mood that morning because ________.

      A. his father had a terrible accident

      B. he couldn’t drive to the mall with his friends

       C. his friends hadn’t invited him to the cinema

      D. his father didn’t allow him to go out with his friends

Why did the author say sorry to his father in the hospital?

      A. Because he didn’t go along with his father.

      B. Because he was rude to his father that morning.

      C. Because he failed to come earlier after the accident.

      D. Because he couldn’t look after his father in the hospital.

The reason why the author’s father said he forgot everything about that day is that ________.

      A. he had a poor memory

       B. he didn’t want to forgive his son

      C. he just wanted to comfort his son

      D. he lost his memory after the accident

What lesson did Beck learn from the matter?

      A. Don’t treat your parents badly.

      B. Don’t hurt others with rude words.

      C. Don’t move the injured in an accident.

      D. Don’t be angry with friends at small things.

三、閱讀理解(共20小題,滿(mǎn)分40分)

第一節(jié):閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A, B, C, 和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題紙上將該選項(xiàng)標(biāo)號(hào)涂黑。

As one approaches some crossroads, one comes to a sign which says that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead. At other crossroads, drivers have to go slow, but they do not actually have to stop (unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road); and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they are themselves on the main road.

Mr. Williams, who was always a very careful driver, was driving home from work one evening when he came to a crossroads. It had a “Slow” sign, so he slowed down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely.

At once he heard a police whistle, so he pulled in to the side of the road and stopped. A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and pencil in his hand and said, “You didn’t stop at the crossing.” “But the sign there doesn’t say “Stop”,” answered Mr. Williams. “It just says “Slow”, and I did go slow.” The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise came over his face. Then he put his notebook and pencil away, scratched his head and said, “Well, I’ll be blowed. I am in the wrong street!”

1. Which of the following statements is correct? ?

A. Stop signs can be found at every crossroads.

B. At crossroads with a “Slow” sign, drivers never have to stop.

C. At crossroads with a “Slow” sign, drivers have to stop and then go slow.

D. At some crossroads, drivers needn’t stop or go slow.

2. What do you think the policeman would do in the end?

A. Fine Mr. Williams.                  B. Take him to the police station.

C. Apologize to Mr. Williams.                 D. Give Mr. Williams his notebook and pencil.

3. Which might be the best title for this passage?

A. Signs at the crossroads                B. A careful driver

C. A policeman and a driver              D. Policeman in the wrong street

It was Saturday . As always, it was a busy one, for “Six days shall you labor and do all your work” was taken seriously back then. Outside,Father and Mr. Patrick next door were busy chopping firewood. Inside their own houses, Mother and Mrs. Patrick  were engaged in spring cleaning.

      Somehow the boys had slipped away to the back lot with their kites. Now, even at the risk of having Brother caught to beat carpets , they had sent him to the  kitchen for string(線). It seemed there was no limit to the heights to which kites would  fly today.

   My mother looked at the sitting room ,its furniture disorderd for a thorough sweeping, Agun she cast a look toward the window. “Come on, girls ! Let’s take string to the boys and watch them

    On the way we met Mrs. Patrick, laughing guiltily as if she were doing something

wrong, together with her girls.

   There never was such a day for flying kited! We played all our fresh string into  the boys’ kites and they went up higher and higher .We could hardly distinguish   the orange-colored spots of the kites. Now and then we slowly pulled one kite back, watching it dancing up and down it the wind, and finally bringing it down to earth , just for the joy of sending it up again.

   Even our fathers dropped their tools and joined us. Our mothers took their turn, laughing like schoolgirls. I think we were all beside ourselves. Parents forgot their  duty and their dignity; children forgot their everyday fights and little jealousies. “Perhaps it’s like this in the kingdom of heaven,”  I thought confusedly.

   It was growing dark before we all walked sleepily back to house. I suppose we   had some sort of supper. I suppose there must have been a surface tidying-up, for the house on Sunday looked clean and orderly enough. The strange thing was , we didn't mention that day afterward. I flt a little embarrassed .Surely none of the others had been as excited as I. I locked the memory up in that deepest part of me where we  keep“the things that cannot be and yet they are.”

    The years went on, then one day I was hurrying about my kitchen in a city  apartment, trying to get some work out of the way while my three-year-old insistently  cried her desire to “go park ,see duck.”

  “I can’t go!”  I said. “I have this and this to do, and when I’m through I’ll be too  tired to walk that for.”

   My mother , who was visiting us , looked up from the peas she was shelling ,“It’s a wonderful day,”she offered,“Really warm , yet there’s a fine breczc . Do you  remember that day we flew kites?”

   I stopped in my dash between stove and sink . The looked door flew open and  with it a rush of memories. “Come on.”I told my little girl. “You’re right , it’s too  good a day to miss.”

    Another decade passed. We were in the aftermath (余波)of a great war. All evening we had been asking our returned soldier, the youngest Patrick Boy, about  his experiences as a prisoner of war. He had talked freely , but now for a long time  he had been silent . What was he thinking of – what dark and horrible things?

  “Say!” A smile slipped out from his lips . “Do you remember --- no, of course  you wouldn’t . It probably didn’t make the impression on you as it did on me.”

   I hardly dared speak.“Remember what ?”

  “I used to think of that day a lot in POW camp(戰(zhàn)俘營(yíng)), when things weren’t too  good. Do you remember the day we flew the kites?”

Remembering that I’ll be  40 soon is the most important tool I’ve ever known to help me make the big  41 in life because almost everything falls away in the face of death  42 only what is truly important.

Your time is  53 ,so don’t waste it living someone else’s 1ife. Don’t be  54 by dogma(教條) —which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner  55 . And most importantly,have the courage to follow your heart.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2010年漳州市高二下學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)卷 題型:閱讀理解

In my profession as an educator and health care provider, I have worked with numerous children infected with the virus that causes AIDS.The relationships that I have had with these special kids have been gifts in my life.They have taught me so many things, but I have especially learned that great courage can be found in the smallest of packages. Let me tell you about Tyler.

Tyler was born infected with HIV: his mother was also infected.From the very beginning of his life, he was dependent on medications to enable him to survive.When he was five, he had a tube surgically inserted in a vein in his chest.This tube was connected to a pump, which he carried in a small backpack on his back.Medications were hooked up to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream.At times, he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his breathing.

Tyler wasn’t willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease.It was not unusual to find him playing and racing around his backyard, wearing his medicine - laden backpack and dragging his tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon.All of us who knew Tyler marveled at his pure joy in being alive and the energy it gave him.Tyler’s mom often teased him by telling him that he moved so fast she needed to dress him in red.That way, when she peered through the window to check on him playing in the yard, she could quickly spot him.

This dreaded(可怕的) disease eventually wore down even the likes of a little dynamo like Tyler.He grew quite ill and, unfortunately, so did his HIV - infected mother.When it became apparent that he wasn’t going to survive, Tyler’s mom talked to him about death.She comforted him by telling Tyler that she was dying too, and that she would be with him soon in heaven.

A few days before his death, Tyler beckoned me over to his hospital bed and whispered, " I might die soon.I’m not scared.When I die, please dress me in red.Mom promised she’s coming to heaven, too.I’ll be playing when she gets there, and I want to make sure she can find me."

1.What is the boy Tyler's attitude towards death?

A.pessimistic(悲觀的).                              B.optimistic.           C.sorrowful.   D.fearful.

2.Tyler requested the writer to dress him in red when he died simply because___________.

A.red is a lucky color                            B.red might help to cure him

C.his mom could spot him easily                  D.he could find more mates by wearing red

3.Which of the following might serve as a possible title for this passage?

A.My unusual profession.                              B.A caring mother.

C.Mother and son.                                                                                    D.Dying in red.

4.The underlined word dynamo in the fourth paragraph here means         ________________.

A.a(chǎn) promising and helpful youth               

B.a(chǎn)n extremely energetic person
