Because Sarah has always saved __________, she is now able to afford a big house.

A. what little she earns B. how little she earns

C. for little she earns D. with little she earns

 

A

【解析】

試題分析：考查名詞性從句。what little 中l(wèi)ittle 為代詞， 可做earn 的賓語。而 how little 中l(wèi)ittle 是副詞修飾 earn 而不是做earn 的賓語， 而該題的空白處saved 后缺少一個(gè)賓語。句意：因?yàn)镾arah一直保存她掙得很少的錢，她現(xiàn)在能夠付得起一套大房子。故A正確。

One-hundred-and seventh birthdays aren’t usually celebrated for authors who aren’t alive anymore. But Theodor Seuss Geisel---better known as the children’s books author Dr. Seuss ---who came into the world on 2 March, 1904, was an unusual man.

Like generations of children I was raised on his wonderful stories. But when I now read them to my children it’s not just the childhood memories I enjoy. His writing is brilliant and imaginative and flows with a self-confidence as sure as the words of a Shakespeare poem. Readers ride his characteristic rhythm (韻律) with an effortless joy that cannot be matched by any other modern writer:

You have brains in your head

You have feet in your shoes

You can steer yourself any direction you choose

And will you succeed?

Yes indeed, yes indeed!

Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed.

Seuss’s brilliant cartoons and clever words make his books a delight for adults but they attract mostly children of course. His stories teach kids moral lessons but in indirect and entertaining ways.

The first Seuss book I was given was The Lorax, written just as the 60s were becoming the 70s. Seuss was ahead of his time, and in this book the dawn of concern for environmental problems are shown as the Lorax “who speaks for the trees” battles against an evil businessman who wants to destroy the forest and make goods “which everyone needs”.

It’s not only a warning of the heavy price of environmental destruction, written well before most people had thought to worry, but it’s also a smart analysis of consumer societies: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” This is of course a moral message, but not of the kind designed to persuade the youngsters into behavior that adults want.

I could go on, but hey, it’s a birthday, and I’m sure you folks have some good toasts to raise for the party…

1.What’s the purpose of this passage?

A. To introduce Dr. Seuss’s life.

B. To analyze Dr. Seuss’s books.

C. To describe Dr. Seuss’s writing style.

D. To celebrate Dr. Seuss’s achievements.

2.Why does the author include Dr. Seuss’s poem?

A. To encourage readers to use their brains and choose their own way.

B. To give readers a sample of Seuss’s story The Lorax.

C. To provide readers with an example of Seuss’s writing style.

D. To explain how relevant Seuss’s stories remain today.

3. Why do adults also enjoy Seuss’s books?

A. His words and pictures are imaginative enough to be enjoyed by all.

B. His books give children obvious moral messages to learn from.

C. He writes about adult topics in a way that is understandable to children.

D. He was the first person to write about the environment.

4.When was the book The Lorax written?

A. Early 1960s. B. Early 1970s.

C. Late 1960s. D. Late 1970s.

5. Which of the following is true about Seuss?

A. Many of the issues he discussed attracted greater concern in later years.

B. He is widely considered as the twentieth-century Shakespeare.

C. His books are more popular now than when they were first published.

D. Most readers thought his ideas were difficult to understand.

Indeed, many failures are experienced in our lives and the effect could be extremely unpleasant. I do have a share of my experience and you might have yours too. As the sayings goes, “Experience is the best teacher.” Many people believe it’s the other way around. Experience, in fact, can be the worst teacher since it takes the first before you learn the lesson.

Often, when people around us try to comfort us that we shouldn’t be too hard on ourselves, we say “sure”, yet we are doing otherwise. We are becoming too hard on ourselves because failure is something that wouldn’t leave your mind quickly. Failure is something that can make you regret spending money, time, and effort but all go down the drain. But it is common everywhere and it usually leads us to success.

“There were once two prison men sitting behind the bars. One saw mud while the other saw stars.” In this story, those two prison men were paying the costs of their actions. However, as they faced their situation, one prisoner was completely defeated by his depression. But the other prisoner held his head up with his hopes and dreams. As you may well notice, failure happens, but people deal with it quite differently.

However, true failure comes in when you react negatively to the situation. True failure is about giving up completely. It is about being unable to recognize that if you look at the midnight skies, the stars are still shinning. See, no matter how disheartening and discouraging your fall was true failure is about not getting up and not moving on. You must accept failure as a great opportunity for you to learn. You will also be able to learn from the failures of other people. But it’s your own failure that will help you meaningfully.

1.The saying “Experience is the best teacher.” in Paragraph 1 means_____.

A. experience is really good at teaching

B. the best teacher usually experiences a lot

C. something valuable can be learned from failure

D. the worst teacher can teach you how to be successful

2.The writer tells us people’s attitudes toward failure by_____.

A. listing some true facts

B. mentioning a story

C. showing some figures

D. blaming the two prison men

3.Which of the following is TRUE about the failure according to the text?

A. We can’t live without failure

B. It is easy to get rid of failure

C. People should try to avoid failure

D. People should treat failure properly

4.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

A. Failure opens the door to learning

B. Experience is interesting and pleasant

C. Success is not easy for us to achieve

D. Everything comes from failure

閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在表格中的空白處填入恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。

注意：每個(gè)空格只填一個(gè)單詞。

Many people believe that classical music is not relevant to young people today . However, this issue (問題) frequently causes heated debate.

Some people say that classical music is associated only with old people .For example, if you look at the audience at a classical concert , the majority is over the age of fifty.

Others say it is more popular than we first imagine . Many young people listen to classical music without realising .It is often used in films and advertisements. For example.a famous piece of classical music was used as the theme music for the 1990 World Cup . Not many people could have given its name , but millions enjoyed it .

Also,some people point out that young people produce new music based on classical ideas: for example, it is said that rap(說唱)music was invented by a classical musician in 1912, but it is now used by young people in pop music.

However, young people point to the fact that classical music has been outstripped(超越) by technology. To play a classical instrument, such as a violin, you need to study hard and practise for hours. Nowadays, you don't need to get aching arms from practising. A teenager can write and make music using a computer program in the comfort of their own bedroom.

A final point to in mind is that the term "classical music" is used to refer to a great variety of music, from jazz to pieces for large orchestras(管弦樂隊(duì)).This makes it even more difficult to say whether classical music is relevant to young people.

So, it may be only a minority of young people who play classical instruments , but when it comes to enjoying classical music, it depends on the piece of music. It may be more relevant to young people in the modern world than they realise!
