Since the Second World War,there has been an obvious trend,especially among the growing group of college students,toward early marriage. Many youths begin dating in the first stage of adolescence, "go steady" through high school, and marry before their formal education has been completed. In some quarters, there is much shaking of graying heads over the unacceptable ways of youth. However, emotional (情感的)maturity does not grow with age; it does not arrive automatically at twenty -one or twenty-five. Some achieve it surprisingly early, while others never do, even in three-score years and ten.

Many students are marrying as an escape, not only from an unsatisfying home life, but also from their own personal problems of loneliness. However, any marriage 'entered into as an escape cannot prove entirely successful. The sad fact is that marriage seldom solves one' s problems ; more often,it merely worsens them. What ’ s more,it is doubtful whether the home is able to carry all that the young are seeking; they might abandon one idol(幻像)only to have another. Young people correctly understand that their parents are wrong in believing that success is the most important in life,but they themselves are wrong in believing that they have found the true center of life' s meaning. Their expectations of marriage are basically unrealistic and therefore can not be met. They want too much, and tragic disillusionment(幻想破滅)is often likely to follow.

Shall we, then, join the chorus of those against early marriages? One cannot generalize: all early marriages are bad and all later ones are good. Satisfactory marriages are determined not by how old one is, but by the emotional maturity of the partners. Therefore, each case must be judged on its own benefits. If the early marriage is not an escape, if it is entered into with relatively few false expectations,and if it is economically workable,why not? Good marriages can

be made from sixteen to sixty, and so can bad ones.

The underlined phrase ” shaking of graying heads, refers to______.

A.  the anger of parents

B.  the disapproval of elderly people

C.  the improper behaviors of the young

D.  the emotional expectations of young lovers

The author thinks the idea of marriage as an escape is______.

A. acceptable   B. controversial C. immature    D. unreasonable

The author argues that______.

A.  young people can benefit little from early marriage marriages

B.  elderly people are wrong about early marriages

C.  early marriages are not always unsuccessful

D.  early marriages should not be encouraged

What’ s the main idea of the passage?

A.  Young people,s failure in marriage results from disillusionment.

B.  Young people shouldn' t have many expectations for marriage.

C.  Successful marriages depend on emotional maturity.

D.  Home is the place where you get rid of loneliness.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2015屆江蘇蘇州五中高一4月學(xué)情階段檢測(cè)英語(yǔ)卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

I had an experience some years ago, which taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I had to hold two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my community. Both had died “full of years”, as the Bible would say. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence (吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon.

At the first home, the son of the deceased (已故的) woman said to me, “If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow , she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.” At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, “If only I hadn’t insisted on my mother’s going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could take. It’s my fault that she’s dead.”

You see that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out badly, they believe that the opposite course — keeping Mother at home, putting off the operation — would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?

There seem to be two elements involved in our willingness to feel guilty. The first is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. That leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds.

The second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood.

A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely outgrow that childish view that our wishes cause things to happen.

1.The author had to hold the two women’s funerals probably because     .

A.he wanted to comfort the two families       B.he was an official from the community

C.he had great pity for the deceased          D.he was priest of the local church

2.People feel guilty for the deaths of their loved ones because     .

A.they couldn’t find a better way to express their sorrow

B.they believe that they were responsible

C.they had neglected the natural course of events

D.they didn’t know things often turn out in the opposite direction

3.According to the passage, the underlined part in paragraph 4 probably means that     .

A.everything in the world is predetermined

B.the world can be interpreted in different ways

C.there’s an explanation for everything in the world

D.we have to be sensible in order to understand the world

4.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.Life and death is an unsolved mystery.

B.Every story should have a happy ending.

C.Never feel guilty all the time because not every disaster is our fault.

D.In general, the survivors will feel guilty about the people who passed away.
