My teenage son Karl refused to communicate with others after his father died. As a        parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card         during his junior year, it said that he had been         95 times from classes and had six         grades for the year. At this rate he         never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even         him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so         that I got down on my knees and prayed for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything         for my son. I'm at the end of my rope. I'm giving the whole thing up to you.”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man         himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.”         he could say another word, I choked up and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came         out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has        . It’ s out of my hands.” For a moment there was         on the other end of the line. The headmaster         said, “Thank you for your time, ” and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked         in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I         a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were         at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I        . “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really         me how much I was hurting you. That's         I knew I had to make you proud.”

I started surfing about five years ago and      in love with the sport on the very first day. Riding that first      was the best feeling I had ever experienced.
When I try to       surfing with other things, I find it very difficult because, in my      , there's nothing like it. It involves body,        , and soul. There's sand between my toes and cool, salt water all     us. The feeling I get when I'm surfing across that     , becoming one with the    , is like I'm weightless.
The one thing I can       from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge. You can never be the "best surfer" because the ocean     an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing; others are very aggressive and     . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it       from any other sport.
I've      to tell every girl I know to do something that people don't think girls can do. It's part of being human to advance to new     , so shouldn't it be expected that girls should step up and start     the limits of things boys and men used to dominate(主宰)?
There're women    side by side with the President of our country, so why not side by side with the boys      the football team or out in the water surfing? Give girls a chance to      , and they will.

Phil White has just returned from an 18,000-mile, around-the-world bicycle trip. White had two reasons for making this epic journey. First of all, he wanted to use the trip to raise money for charity, which he did. He raised £70,000 for the British charity, Oxfam. White's second reason for making the trip was to break the world record and become the fastest person to cycle around the world. He is still waiting to find out if he has broken the record or not.
White set off from Trafalgar Square, in London, on 19th June 2004 and was back 299 days later. He spent more than l,300 hours in the saddle(車座)and destroyed four sets of tyres and three bike chains. He had the adventure of his life crossing Europe, the Middle East, India, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and the Americas. Amazingly, he did all of this with absolutely no support team. No jeep carrying food, water and medicine. No doctor. Nothing! Just a bike and a very, very long road.
The journey was lonely and desperate at times. He also had to fight his way across deserts, through jungles and over mountains. He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees, all to help people in need. There were other dangers along the road. In Iran, he was chased by armed robbers and was lucky to escape with his life and the little money he had. The worst thing that happened to him was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia. For 1,000 kilometres he battled against the wind that was constantly pushing him. This part of the trip was slow, hard work and depressing, but he made it in the end. Now Mr. White is back and intends to write a book about his adventures.
小題1:When Phil White returned from his trip, he________.
A.broke the world recordB.collected money for Oxfam
C.destroyed several bikesD.travelled about 1,300 hours
小題2:What does the word "epic" in Paragraph l most probably mean _____.
A.Very slow but exciting.B.Very long and difficult.
C.Very smooth but tiring.D.Very lonely and depressing.
小題3:During his journey around the world, Phil White _______.
A.fought heroically against robbers in Iran
B.experienced the extremes of heat and cold
C.managed to ride against the wind in Australia
D.had a team of people who travelled with him
小題4:Which of the following words can best describe Phil White?

科目:高中英語 來源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

Once I invited a group of friends round to my house, telling them that I was going to record their speech. I said I was interested in their regional accents, and that it would take only a few minutes. Thus, on one evening, three people turned up at my house and were shown into my front room. When they saw the room they were a bit alarmed, for it was laid out as a studio. In front of each easy chair there was a microphone at head height, with wires leading to a tape-recorder in the middle of the floor. I explained that all I wanted was for them to count from one to twenty. Then we could relax and have a drink.
I turned on the tape-recorder and each in turn seriously counted from one to twenty in their best accent. When it was over, I turned the tape-recorder off and brought round the drinks, and for the rest of the evening there was general cheerful conversation—interrupted only by the fact that I had to take a telephone call in another room, which unfortunately lasted some time.
Or at least that was how it would appear. For, of course, the microphones were not connected to the tape-recorder in the middle of the room at all but to another one, which was turning happily away in the kitchen. The participants, having seen the visible tape-recorder turned off, paid no more attention to the microphones which stayed in front of their chairs, only a few inches from their mouths, thus giving excellent sound quality. And my lengthy absence meant that I was able to obtain as natural a piece of conversation as it would be possible to find.
I should add, perhaps, that I did tell my friends what had happened to them, after the event was over, and gave them the choice of destroying the tape. None of them wanted to—though for some years afterwards it always seemed to be my round when it came to the buying of drinks. Linguistic research can be a very expensive business.
小題1:The writer asked his friends to count from one to twenty because _______. 
A.he wanted to record the numbers for his research
B.he wanted to find out whether the tape recorder was working
C.he wanted to make his friends relax before real recording started
D.he wanted his friends to think that was all he wanted to record
小題2:The writer went into another room to ________.
A.get a natural recording of his friends’ conversation
B.stay away from too much drinking with his friends
C.bring a telephone into the front room
D.a(chǎn)nswer a long distance phone call
小題3:The writer turned off the tape-recorder because _______.
A.he had to answer a phone call
B.he wanted his friends to enjoy some drinks
C.he thought the tape-recorder might bother his friends
D.he wanted to make his friends believe he had finished the recording
小題4:Which one is true according to the passage?
A.The writer destroyed the tape.
B.The writer’s friends destroyed the tape.
C.The writer did tell his friends what had happened.
D.The writer’s friends like to drink.

I grew up in Jamaica Plain. My best friend Rose and I used to dream about raising a family of our own someday and living next door to one another.
Our dream remained alive through school and beyond. Rose was my maid of honor when I married Dick. Later, Dick was stationed in Alaska and we moved. Rose was sad to see me leave, but wished me the best of luck. We remained in touch for a few years before we lost track. 
  I thought of her several times over the years. All of my children now have families of their own, and Dick passed away a few years ago. Basically, a lifetime has passed. Then one day, near my 80th birthday, I received a phone call “Hi Natalie, it’s Rose,” the voice on the other end said, “ I don’t know if you remember me, but we used to be best friends in Jamaica Plain when we were kids.” 
  We have spent hours on the phone catching up. Even after 52 years of separation our personalities and interests are still extremely similar. We both share a passion for several hobbies that we each picked up independently several years after we lost touch with one another. It almost feels like we are picking up right where we left off.
Her husband died a few years ago as well, but she mailed me several photographs of her family that were taken over the years. It’s so crazy, just looking at the photos and listening to her description of her family reminds me of my own: a reasonably large, healthy family. Part of me feels like we led fairly similar lives.
I don’t think the similarities between our two lives are a coincidence either. I think it shows that we didn’t just call each other best friend; we truly were best friends and even now we can be best friends again. Real friends have two things in common: a compatible(相容的)personality and a strong-willed character. The compatible personality is what starts the connection between two people. A strong-willed character at both ends is what maintains the connection. If those two ingredients are present in a friendship, the friendship is for real, It can pass the tests of time and long distance between one another and will never disappear
小題1:From the passage we may know that the author       .
A.lived next door to Rose in her childhood
B.was Rose’s maid of honor when she was married
C.lost touch of Rose since she moved to Alaska
D.missed her friend although they lost contact
小題2:After 52 years of separation, they       .
A.had a lot to talk on the phone
B.sent each other photographs of their family
C.they lived the same life
D.developed different personalities and hobbies
小題3:The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refers to       .
A.Rose’s description
B.coincidence
C.best friend
D.the similarities between our two lives
小題4:The author thinks that       .
A.the similarities between their lives are coincident
B.a(chǎn)lthough they’re not best friends, they have much in commom.
C.they both have a compatible personality and a strong-willed character
D.only those who have similar characters can be real friends

Travis laughed as he tore at the wrapping paper on his birthday present. He was so       ! Finally, he would have the coolest pair of name-brand basketball shoes.
All the guys on his team were wearing the name-brand shoes of a popular basketball       , Chuck Hart.         Hart was criticized for his poor sportsmanship and infamous      , he was a great player. In fact, Travis wasn't thinking about Hart' s behavior; he had only expected to see Hart’s       on the side of the box. The first indication that something was       came as he tore away the last piece of paper. Not Hart’s. The new shoes were the name-brand of another player, Robert Ryann, who was       for his amazing work in the community.
Travis’s hands       ; his heart stopped. It wasn't that the Ryann shoes weren’t nice, but what would his friends think ?
They were the wrong shoes and Travis would be       by the other players. When he looked up into his dad' s eyes, however, Travis decided he      not tell him. "'Thanks, Dad. I was really hoping for shoes," Travis said as he pulled the shoes out of the box.
Next morning his dad drove him to school. When they       in front of his destination, Travis slowly opened the car door. Just then, his dad stopped him.
“Hey, Travis, wait a minute, look…” his dad said       ,“Travis, I know those aren’t the shoes you had hoped for, but I saw the names of the two guys and made a(n)      . The guy whose name is on those shoes,” he said, pointing down at Travis’s feet, “is someone I       . Do you know how often Ryann has found himself in      ?”
“No,” Travis said.
“Never. He’s never talked back to his coach or started a fight, and he’s a team player. You could have acted like a (n)       when you didn’t get the shoes you wanted, Travis,       you were polite and made the best of it. You have such a good       , like the guy whose name is on these shoes. I’m hoping that someday, your name will be on the coolest pair of shoes I’ll ever see.”
When Travis looked down at his feet, he saw the shoes       . His dad had used his mind and heart to give the son a thoughtful       .

One day,some of the girls in our neighborhood started acting a bit strangely towards me.They     talking to me.After a day or so of this,I finally     what was going on.I'd said something to a(n)       girl the night before that she didn't like.I'd had a few      that night, and like everyone I sometimes say things that     severer than I mean them to.
Anyway,it seemed that the girl had told many of her friends,and now they were all     at me.They found a great     to think of all the other supposed“crimes”I'd committed over the past year.    they'd all really liked me before, suddenly they     I was a really bad guy.
This was a difficult problem.I     to get along well with these people and I liked them all.I didn't want them to     me because of something stupid I'd said when I was drunk.It didn't    much whether they or I was wrong.All I wanted was things to be     to normal again.
So I wrote the popular girl a note     saying:“I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings.I didn't mean to”.And that was it.The problem was solved.   .the girls who were angry with me now liked me     than ever.They felt I'd done something     in admitting I was wrong and apologizing.
Learn how and when to     .Often,the pride and stubbornness you hold onto by refusing to back down isn't worth the     of a lasting argument.An apology can     for healing a difficult situation.And often, people will think better of you for it.
