A [2015 •河南八市重点高中教学质量监测] Around four years ago, I received a call from the princi?pal of our school as to the "Parents' View" talk the next morning. He asked me to speak to the group. After the call, my whole body became feverish and panicky. The time from his call to the next morning seemed like years. The whole night ? I could not sleep with many ominous apprehensions in mind. One of them was to call the principal with regret and tell him that I could not come. Finally, I gathered some cour?age. 1 thought, if I missed this opportunity, surely the school would never invite me again to any of their programmes.
I reached the school in time. Before my turn came, my whole body was trembling. When my turn came, I started speaking, my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry. I wasn't even able to read the written speech properly. I was not aware of where I was standing and what I was reading. That was the day when I realized my biggest weakness―pub?lic speaking.
After my speech, I met with the principal and explained what had happened to me. He told me that this happened to everyone. Even great speakers faced the same thing when they started. He suggested that I come again next time.
Around one month later, I was invited to refer to a topic on motivation. This time I was feeling comfortable. My speech was appreciated not only by the principal as well as by the teachers, because I was able to get my idea across to them. They encouraged and praised my efforts.
After the speech was successfully delivered, I became more confident. I said to myself, "If I can speak in front of such a learned audience, like the principal who educates oth?ers, I can now speak in front of others, too."
I started delivering lectures in my plant, on various top?ics like self-motivation, personality development, personal excellence, spoken English and presentation skills. This has become a passion for me. I learned that everything is possible if we have the courage to take the first step.
1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.Practice makes a man a better speech maker
B.Public speaking makes a man embarrassed
C.Principal provides the best chances
D.Spoken English develops in making speeches
2.The author had bad feelings before the speech because
A. he disliked the idea of giving a lecture
B.he had got a high fever before that
C.he regretted accepting the invitation
D.he feared he couldn't perform it properly
3.What does the underlined part "ominous apprehensions" in the first paragraph mean?
A.Unlucky opportunities.
B.Negative ideas.
C.Curious views.
D.Happy comments.
4. What can we conclude from the passage?
A.Nothing is to be got without pains but poverty.
B.Knowledge makes humble, while ignorance makes proud.
C.A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
D.Necessity is the mother of invention.

A [2015 •哈尔滨六中二模]
Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy―they're given after all. Choices can be hard.
I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2 ， 300 per cent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I'd been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start?ups don't, and that I wasn't sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy? I'd been a garage inventor. Id always wanted to be an inventor, and she wan?ted me to follow my passion.
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and fi?nally said, "That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job. " That logic made some sense to me, and he con?vinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but ultimately (最后)，I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.
After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.
1. What inspired the author with the idea of building an on?line bookstore?
A. His dream of being an inventor.
B. The support of his wife.
C. The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.
D. Millions of exciting titles.
2. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the under?lined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A. The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.
B.He would be very excited if he tried it out.
C. He would be always having a doubt if he didn't try.
D. The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.
3. We can know from the passage that .
A.the boss thought the idea was suitable for the author
B.the author wanted someone else to try the idea
C.the author might not regret if he failed the idea
D. the author might go back to his boss if he failed
4. Which of the following would be the best title for the pas?sage?
A. Cleverness and kindness
B.The starting of Amazon
C. Following my passion
D. We are what we choose

On Friday, our teacher told us that there would an Eng?lish corner in front of our teaching building. I set about soon after the last class in the afternoon.
To my joy, the English corner had just been on for a few minute. I joined them on their talk. At first, I was afraid that my English was so poor and limit that I couldn't follow them or make myself understand. I was also afraid that anyone might laugh at me. But a smiling face here or an encouraging nod there soon put me at ease. Though I speak to them only in simple English that day, I believe in future I will make a great progress.

A [2015*四川宜宾高三一诊] There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favourite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.
I had always travelled to Malaysia by plane or car, so that was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read The Economist,
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johor Bahru was just another city like Sin?gapore City, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight, immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the wastebasket and decided to join in Mal?aysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled in at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beauti?ful. When my uncle waved with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug. I had never done this be?fore. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face lighted up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.
The author had expected the train trip to be .
A. adventurous
B. pleasant
C. boring
D. exciting
2. What touched the author during the train trip?
A. The mountains along the way.
B. The friendly country people.
C. The crowds of people in the streets.
D. The simple lunch served on the train.
3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word "relish" in Paragraph 2?
A. Dislike. B. Enjoy.
C. Release. D. Choose.
4. What can we learn from the story?
A. Smiles brighten people up.
B. Living in the country is pleasant.
C. Reading gives people delight.
D. Travelling by train is comfortable.

阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写在对应的横线上(请注意问题后的词数要求)o
Many students want to find friends on the Internet as a way of practicing their language skills and learning more about new cultures. Traditional pen pals were the primary source for such contacts, and students could write each other letters. With the Internet, finding friends has become much easier, and such relationships are called key pals. However, care and consideration should be given when finding friends on the Internet:
Search the Internet for reputable (有信誉的)services. Look for reviews of such sites to learn more about other students' experiences. Don't join a service until you have done your research.
Check to see if you can use a nickname, instead of your real name, to protect your identity.
Never give personal information to anyone, including your home address, phone number, and birthday.
Stop contact with others if you feel uncomfortable with the topics of conversation. Again, if you protect your identity, this will be easier to do. Tell your teachers, parents, or even local law enforcement(执法组) if problems arise.
Try to use the language you are studying in the classroom in your communication with others.
Ask appropriate questions that will also help you learn about other cultures. Remember that someone's personal experience might help you to understand a whole culture. You have to talk to many different people, and this will get you started.
1.Why do many students want to find friends on the Internet? (within 15 words)
2.What are the relationships between friends on the Internet called? (within 3 words)
3.What's the purpose of using a nickname on the Internet? (within 5 words)
4.How many pieces of advice does the writer give about finding friends on the Internet? (within 2 words)
