Three Boys and a Dad
Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother. Expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park,” he’d told his wife. “I’ll look after the kids, and you can go visit your mom.”
Things started well, but just after eight o’clock, his three little “good kids”—Mike, Randy, and Alex—came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast, daddy.” When food had not appeared within thirty seconds, Randy began using his spoon on Alex’s head as if it were a drum. Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat(节拍). Mike chanted “Where’s my toast, where’s my toast” in the background. Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast. Mike wore Randy’s underwear on his head. Randy locked himself in the bathroom, while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes. Someone named “Not Me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Brad knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o’clock, things were out of control. Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils. Randy, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room,but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Brad Realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17, Brad called the daycare centre (日托所).“I suddenly have to go into work and my wife’s away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?” The answer was obviously “yes” because Brad was smiling.
【小题1】When his wife left home, Brad expected to ______            .

A.go out for a walk in the park.B.watch TV talk show with his children.
C.enjoy his first day off work.D.read the newspaper to his children.

B.Because he suddenly had to go to his office.

One morning, a blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said, “I am blind. Please help me.” There were only a few coins in the hat.

A man was walking by. He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote something on it. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could see the new words. Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, “Are you the one who changed my sign this morning? May I know what you wrote?” The man said, “I only wrote the truth, I said what you said but in a different way.” What he had written was, “Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it.”

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was a blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. It reminded you to be thankful for what you have. When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1,000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear. The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling.

第三部分 阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)

请阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项的标号涂黑。

May 16th               Wednesday                                                  Sunny

They used to call her “the witch(女巫)”, but today I found things were different.

         My legs were too short to reach the floor from up there on the big chair. I was so afraid. My legs started to shake.

         It was the first time I had been to the principal’s(校长的) office. And I knew what she was going to ask me.

         Why had I been running on the concrete(混凝土) in the playground? Why hadn’t I followed the school rules?

         The principal’s secretary was sitting at her desk. She kept asking me questions like whether I liked school and what grade I was in. I didn’t want to talk to her, so I just gave one-word answers.         

         Then she asked what my dad did. But I didn’t really know what he did, so I made something up. “He plays basketball for the Boston Celtics,” I said.

         The secretary just looked at me, and said nothing more.

         Just then, the door to the principal’s office opened. There she was, the woman that everyone called “the witch”.

         Was she really that bad? I was surprised to see her office walls were bright yellow, and there were some nice pictures on the desk.

         She told me about the pictures. I was surprised that she had a family and a kid, just like me.

         Then she asked how my family was. It turned out that she had known me since I was only a few weeks old. I was happy to hear that. If she knew my mum, then I wouldn’t get into much trouble.

 She cleaned the cut on my knee and told me to be more careful. She also told me about the rules of the playground. But she didn’t punish or shout at me. And I forgot all the bad things I had heard about “the witch”. I had met her and I knew she was nice.

1.“The witch” in the story refers to _______.

A. the writer                            B. the writer’s father                C. the secretary    D. the principal

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. The writer often asked the principal for help.

   B. The principal must be very strict with students.

   C. Running in the playground was allowed by the school rules.

   D. The writer’s father was an excellent basketball player.

3.Which word can replace the underlined phrase “made up” (in Paragraph 6)?

   A. Told.                            B. Invented.                  C. Minded.                  D. Memorized.

4. How did the writer find the principal in the end?

   A. Terrible.                 B. Kind.                        C. Proud.                     D. Strict.

科目:高中英语 来源:20102011学年广东省高一下学期期中考试英语试题 题型:阅读理解

Some people love eating food right after it is cooked. I prefer food just take out from the freezer. Fruit, candy, nuts, chocolate, cake with butter cream frosting(糖霜),even peas, all of them taste delicious when frozen. In fact, I often eat them that way.

I was a kid when I picked up the habit. In my family, lots of things were thrown into the freezer —finally, two freezers—to prevent them from going bad. Among them were some of the candies my sisters and I had collected on Halloween.

If we eat when they are still warm, we’ll find ourselves taking the cookies more than we should. It’s better if we can put them into the freezer and wait. That way we’ll eat less and enjoy them more because they are hard and chewing becomes a slower, more patient effort. That’s the point about frozen butter-cream frosting. Put it in your mouth at room temperature, and it’s gone very quickly. But when it’s frozen, you can enjoy the taste much longer as it melts(融化) in your mouth.

The freezer treats a lot of fruits kindly. Take frozen grapes for example, I keep a bowl of grapes in my freezer. They become a little icy, and somehow their sweetness is improved. They are perfect and healthy dessert(点心).This is the same with oranges, apples, bananas…You might think bananas would get super-hard when frozen. Wrong! They become cool, creamy and sweet. If you have wisely covered some or all of the bananas with melted chocolate before putting them into the freezer, they will have a double taste.

As long as you aren’t eating anything that truly has to be hot, go ahead and experiment.

 

1. What is the passage intended to tell us ____________.

A. Fruit should be frozen before one eats it.   B. Frozen food is better than hot food.

C. The author prefers frozen food.          D. Hot food is not healthy.

2.The author began to enjoy frozen food when he _________.

A. was young   B. learned cooking   C. got married   D. got a fever

3. Why does the author NOT advise us to take hot cookies?

  A. Because they need more time to prepare.

  B. Because the taste is not good when they are hot.

  C. Because they are too delicious to avoid our overeating.

  D. Because we may eat them quickly and enjoy them less.

4.What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to?

  A. The taste   B. Butter cream   C. The cookie   D. Frozen butter cream frosting

5. Which of the following is the advice the author gives on eating fruit?

  A. Make bananas hard.        B. Keep grapes in a bowl.

  C. Mix kinds of fruits together.  D. Add melted chocolate to bananas.
