题型描述: 阅读理解The room was dark and still. Only one boy was still awake. He sat on the edge of his bed at a far corner of the room. Slowly and carefully, he made small holes across a piece of paper with a sharp stylus (铁笔). Every two or three minutes he stopped and ran his fingers across the raised dots on the opposite side of the paper. A whisper came from the next bed, “Louis, are you still making dots? You’d better stop and get some rest. The teacher will be angry if you fall asleep in class.” The reply came slowly. “I know. I’m almost finished now. Go back to sleep, Gauthier.” Louis Braille, inventor of the Braille reading system (盲文) for the blind, put his paper and stylus on a table behind his bed. He stood up and walked across the room to an open window. He hardly noticed the cool April wind brushing his face. He knew his system would work despite what others thought.1、 From the passage we know people did not believe Braille would succeed in his work. A. F B. T 2、 The other boy asked Braille to stop because he could not go to sleep with Braille working. A. F B. T 3、 This passage is mainly about how the Braille method was invented. A. T B.

题型描述: 阅读理解What do we talk about when we talk about money? We often think about what we can buy with the money we have，what we can’t buy because we don’t have enough and what we’re planning to buy when we have more. We discuss the careers that bring us money and the expenses that take it away. We talk about our favorite shops and restaurants, the causes we support, the places we’ve been and seen. We share dreams that only money can make real. In short, we talk about everything but money itself. In daily life, money is still a major conversational taboo. This is a shame, because money is at least as interesting as the things it does and buys, and the more you know about it, the more interesting it is. As a financial advisor, Iˊve seen hundreds of people learn to control their money instead of letting it control them watched as they increased their freedom, power and security by handling money consciously. Wouldn’t you like to know that you’ll always have enough money to live exactly as you want to? You’ll never be powerful in life until you’re powerful over your own money. Talking openly about it is the first step.1、 In daily life, people often talk about money openly. A. F B. T 2、 Talking openly about money is the first step to control it. A. F B. T 3、 Many people believe that only money can make our dreams come into being. A. T B. F 4、 Many people learn to handle money because they like money. A. T B. F 5、 People don’t think about what they can buy with money when they talk about money. A. F B. T

题型描述: 阅读理解In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a “weight problem”. To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn’t watch television. Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on the average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as the 1979 study of 3,545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people. Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts: The more the men ran, the more body fat they lost. The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate. Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat. (183 words)1、 In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of the 1910s _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . A. ate less food and had less physical exercise B. ate less food but had more activities C. ate more food and had more physical activities D. had more weight problems 2、 Is there any scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a “weight problem?” A. Yes, there is plenty of evidence. B. Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true. C. There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this. D. We don’t know because the information is not given. 3、 According to the article, given 500 adult Americans, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ people will have a “weight problem.” A. 150 B. 50 C. 30 D. 100 4、 The physical problem that many adult Americans have is that _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . A. they are too fat B. they lose too much body fat C. they are too slim D. they work too hard 5、 Modern scientific researches have reported to us that _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .

题型描述: 阅读理解Wedding ceremonies in the United States vary as much as the people do. But many weddings, no matter where or how they are performed, include certain traditional customs. For instance, the bride and groom often exchanged rings at the ceremony. The rings are usually worn on the fourth finger of the left hand, and are exchanged in the middle of the ceremony. Today, the ring shows the couple’s love for one another.After the ceremony, the couple is often showered with handfuls of uncooked rice by friends and family. Rice, as we know, shows productivity and harvest. And then, there is often a party, where the food is so plentiful that it almost takes the attention away from the people. Soon the bride stands in the center of the room, often on a chair, and throws her flowers to the unmarried women at the party. Tradition says that whoever catches the flowers will be the next bride. Some women eagerly try to catch the flower; others shy away.And then it is time for the bride and groom to set off the tradition of a honeymoon, a trip after the wedding.The trip nowadays varies greatly by wealth, time and preference.

题型描述: 阅读理解With the steady increase in the amount of leisure time that people enjoy today, the importance of businesses that deal with leisure products and services is also steadily increasing. Among them, tourist industry is one of the biggest industries of this kind. Providing transportation and accommodations for tourists — and guides, brochures, souvenirs — is one of the major industries in many countries.

题型描述: 阅读理解M. Gregory Gale is one of the few people in England who are 100 years old, but this is not the only thing that makes him remarkable. On the day of his birthday, he played a game of tennis and went for a long walk. A few days later a radio reporter came to his house and asked him if he had any “secrets of long life”. This is what Mr. Gale said.“No, I don’t know any ‘secrets’ like that, but there are a few simple rules of good life. I’ve always kept them all my life. The first is this: ‘Don’t listen to those fools who tell you that you have to give up all the pleasures of life!’ That’s absolute nonsense!”“The second is to enjoy all the pleasures of life in moderation. For instance, I’ve always smoked a few good cigars every day. Not many, mind you! Only two or three! I’ve also always drunk a little good wine with my meals, perhaps two or three glasses.”“The third rule is to take a little exercise every day. I’ve always taken a little every day and on Saturdays I’ve always played a little tennis.”1、 M. Gregory Gale plays tennis every day. A. F B.

题型描述: 阅读理解There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become dis?couraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.1、 Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? A.

题型描述: 阅读理解Basketball is perhaps the only sport whose exact origin can safely be stated. During the winter of 1891—1892, Dr. James Naismith, a college instructor in Springfield, Massachusetts, invented the game of basketball in order to provide exercise for the students between the closing of the football season and the opening of the baseball season. He attached fruit baskets overhead on the wall at opposite ends of the gymnasium. He organized nine-man teams to play his new game, using a soccer ball. What the players did was to throw the ball into one basket and keep the other team from tossing the ball into the opposite basket. There have since been many changes in the rules. For example, the number of players on a team has been reduced to 5. But the game is basically the same today. Americans introduced it to the Philippines in 1900 and to Europe during World War I. Being adopted by foreign countries, it soon became a worldwide sport. It is interesting that although basketball was creaｔed as an indoor game, in countries other than the United States, it is now played almost entirely outdoors.

题型描述: 阅读理解Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life.In some modem countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all — one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degree; they refuse to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, manual work is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor; we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our towns.In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of one’s work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.1、 According to the passage . A. we canˊt regard manual work as lowD B. manual work is the most important C. manual work is considered low D. manual work is dirty and shameful 2、 The passage tells us about _ _ _ _ _ of the education.

A. free education won’t help solve problems B. free education for all will probably lead us to a perfect world C. not all of the social problems can be solved by education D. education can resolve most of the problems in the world. 4、 The purpose of education is _ _ _ _ _ . A. to choose officials for the country B. to prepare children mainly for their future work C. to build a perfect world D. to allow everyone to receive education that fits him/her 5、 The writer wants to prove that _ _ _ _ _ .
