科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

I was working with a client who was completely burned out on her career and life and then ready for a career change. As we were talking, she said, “I just wish I had meaningful work. I don’t feel like I am making a difference. I am just wasting my life.” This is the theme I hear most often from clients who have been in the workforce awhile.All of us want to feel like we are making a difference. We want to believe our work means something. The problem comes in defining “meaningful work”. What is it? That answer is different for everyone. For some meaningful work might be helping others organize their office. For others it may mean making a million dollars.
What really matters is how you see it. What is meaningful work to you? Take out a piece of paper and answer these questions. How do you define meaningful work? When do you feel like you are really making a difference? What work have you done so far that feels the most meaningful? Write down whatever comes to mind.
What you want to do is meaningful. It is very easy to start judging yourself as being selfish. Stop! Allow yourself to be honest. The fact is when Picasso painted; he was doing it because he liked to paint. He was not thinking, “Oh, I hope this brings joy to others’ lives.” He painted because he wanted to. When Beethoven composed, he did it because he loved music. Even scientists searching for a cure for cancer are immersed in their work because it fascinates them.
Don’t look down on your work. It is easy to downplay the importance of work that feels meaningful. I remember Tony Robbins told a story of talking with the owner of a major company. The man said to Tony, “I wish I could do what you do because it makes such adifference in people’s lives”. Tony said, “You have got to be kidding! Look at what adifference you make. You provide work, health insurance and security for thousands ofpeople!” Don’t underestimate the value you provide.
Take a look at what you have written about meaningful work. Do you see any themes? How do you wish to contribute to this world? Whatever you choose, remember that the greatest gift you can give is to find work that makes you feel fulfilled and delighted. Respect your preference because giving your gifts to the world, whatever they look like, is the most meaningful action you can ever take.
小題1:. What does the writer mean by mentioning the famous people?
A．Famous people are selfish to start work for themselves.
B．Doing meaningful work requires our interest in it.
C．Interest is the best teacher in learning.
D．Honesty makes for the greatest people.
小題2:. When you downplay the value of your work, you tend to think it is ______.
A．quite differentB．very successfulC．not meaningfulD．less important
小題3:.According to the passage, what meaningful job does the writer advise us to take?
A．The one which is popular in society.
B．The one which brings you profits.
C．The one which wins you fame.
D．The one which interests you.
小題4:. The article is intended to ________.
A．explain what is the most important in changing one’s job
B．a(chǎn)dvise taking an immediate action to find meaningful work
C．suggest we should show confidence and talent in work
D．tell us the problem that the author’s client met

Joanne was stuck in a traffic jam in central Birmingham at 5：30 and at 6：30 she was expected to be chairing a meeting of the tennis club. At last, the traffic was moving. She swung quickly racing to her house. As she opened the door, she nearly tripped over (被絆倒)Sheba.
“Hey, Sheba,” she said, “I've got no time for you now, but I'll take you out as soon as I get back from tennis club.” Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking. Obviously, she could hardly breathe. Immediately, Joanne realized she would have to take her to the vet (獸醫(yī)).
When she got there, the vet was just about to close for the day. Seeing the state of Sheba, Dr. Sterne brought her quickly into his office.
“Listen, doctor, I'm really in a rush to get to a meeting, can I leave her with you, and go and get changed? I'll be back in ten minutes to pick her up, and then I'll take her on to the meeting with me. Is that OK?”
“Sure.” said the doctor.
Joanne made the quick trip back to her house in a couple of minutes. As she was once more entering the hallway, the phone by the door began to ring.
“This is Dr. Sterne,” said an anxious voice. “I want you to get out of that house immediately, ”said the doctor's voice. “I'm coming round right away, and the police will be there any time now. Wait outside!”
At that moment, a police car screeched (發(fā)出尖銳的聲音)to a stop outside the house. Two policemen got out and ran into the house. Joanne was by now completely confused and very frightened. Then the doctor arrived.
“Where’s Sheba? Is she OK?” shouted Joanne.
“She’s fine, Joanne. I took out the thing which was choking her, and she’s OK now. ”
Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white—faced man, who could hardly walk. There was blood all over him.
“My God, ” said Joanne,  “how did he get in there? And how did you know he was there?”
“I think he must be a burglar.” said the doctor. “I knew he was there because when I finally removed what was stuck in Sheba’s throat：it turned out to be three human fingers.”
小題1:. What was Joanne supposed to do at 6：30？
A．To walk her dog.B．To see her doctor.
C．To attend a club meeting.D．To play tennis with her friends.
小題2:. Joanne wanted to get back to her home again           .
A．to dress up for the meetingB．to phone the police station
C．to catch the badly hurt burglarD．to wait for her dog to be cured
小題3:. From the passage, we can infer that         .
A．Sheba fought against the burglar
B．the police found the burglar had broken in
C．Joanne had planned to take her dog to the meeting
D．the doctor performed a difficult operation on the dog
小題4:. In this passage, the writer intends to tell us that the dog is           .
A．cleverB．friendlyC．frightening D．devoted
小題5:．The underlined word a burglar in the last paragraph probably means ________.
A．a(chǎn) cleanerB．a(chǎn) physicianC．a(chǎn) thiefD．a(chǎn) murderer

Several times my daughter had telephoned to say, “Mum, you must come and see the daffodils （水仙花）before they are over.” I wanted to go, but it was a two-hour drive from Lake Arrowhead. “I will go next Tuesday,” I promised, a little unwillingly, on her third call.
The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy. Still, I had promised, and so I drove there. When I finally walked into Carolyn’s house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren, I said, “Forget the daffodils, Carolyn! The road is invisible （看不見的）in the cloud and fog, and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see!”
My daughter smiled calmly and said, “We drive in this weather all the time, Mum. You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience.”
After about twenty minutes, we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church. On the far side of the church, I saw a hand-lettered sign that read “Daffodil Garden”.
We got out of the car and each took a child’s hand, and I followed Carolyn down the path. Then, we turned a corner of the path, and I looked up and gasped. Before me lay the most beautiful sight! There were five acres of flowers! “But who has done this?” I asked Carolyn. “It’s just one woman,” Carolyn answered. “That’s her home,” Carolyn pointed to a well-kept A-frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory. We walked up to the house. On the patio （庭院）, we saw a poster. “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking” was the headline.
The first answer was a simple one. “50,000 bulbs （鱗莖）,” it read. The second answer was, “One at a time, by one woman.” The third answer was, “Began in 1958.”
I thought of this woman whom I had never met, who, more than fifty years before, had begun -- one bulb at a time -- to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top.
小題1:The author didn’t go to see the daffodils at first because _________.
A．she was not interested in them
B．they were growing on the mountain top
C．the weather was not good enough
D．it was not easy for her to drive there
小題2:What do we know about the woman living in the A-frame house?
A．She must be out of mind.
B．She acted as a gardener there.
C．It took her great determination to grow the daffodils.
D．She was poor and made her living by selling daffodils.
小題3:What could the author probably learn from this experience?
A．Nothing is too difficult if you put your heart into it.
B．We must put the interests of others above our own.
C．We can change the world by growing flowers.
D．It’s never too late to learn.
小題4: What would be the best title for the passage?
A．An Unforgettable Experience.B．Beautiful Daffodils.
C．One Bulb at a Time.D．I Love Daffodils.

I promised Michael I wouldn’t mention this until the season was over．Now l think it's time．
Early last season, I wrote a column about an art of kindness I had seen Jordan do to a disabled child outside the stadium．After it ran，I got a call from a marl in the western suburbs．He said，“I read what you wrote about Jordan．but I thought I should tell you another thing I saw．”
Here it comes, I thought. It always does. Write something nice about a person, and people call you up to say that the person is not so nice.
A few weeks later Jordan and I were talking about something else before a game, and I brought up what the man had said. Was the man right? Had Jordan really been talking to those two boys in that poor and dirty .neighborhood?
"Not two boys," Jordan said. "But four."
And he named them. He said four names. And what did they talk about?
"Everything,” Jordan said. " Anything. I’ve asked to see their grades so that I can check to see if they're paying attention to their study. If it turns out that one or two of them may need teaching, I make sure they get it."
It's just one more part of Michael Jordan's life one more thing that no one knows about, and one more thing Jordan does fight for. The NBA season is over now, and those boys have their memories. So do J! When the expert reviewers begin to tuna against Jordan as they surely will, I'll think about those boys under the streetlight, waiting for the man they know to come. For someone they can depend on.
小題1:The writer wrote this story about Jordan and his young friends because _______
A．he thought highly of Jordan's deeds
B．he hated to see Jordan do something bad
C．he believed it was time to help the disabled
D．he felt sure he needn't keep the promise then
小題2: A man in the western suburbs made a call to_______

B．get a chance to become famous himself
C．let the writer know Jordan was not that nice
D．offer an example to show how Jordan helped others
小題3: Jordan talked with the boys because he _______.                     
A．needed their support
B．had promised to do so
C．liked to teach them to play basketball
D．wanted to make sure they all studied well
小題4: The text implies that Jordan is _______.
A．a(chǎn)n excellent basketball player
B．good at dealing with problems of life
C．a(chǎn)lways ready to make friends with young people
D．willing to do whatever he can for the good of society

About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table, I couldn't help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked, “So, how have you been?” And the boy—who could not have been more than seven or eight years old—replied. “Frankly, I've been feeling a little depressed lately.”
This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn't find out we were “depressed”, that is, in low spirits, until we were in high school.
Undoubtedly a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don't seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why?
Human development depends not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of gaining social knowledge. Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new social positions. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages; traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation（揭示） machine has been equipped in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information to all viewers alike, whether they are children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation （誘惑）,  many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more attractive moving pictures.
Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information which children will gain. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.
小題1: According to the author, feeling depressed is ____________.
A．a(chǎn) sure sign of a mental problem in a child
B．a(chǎn) mental state present in all humans, including children
C．something that cannot be avoided in children's mental development
D．something hardly to be expected in a young child
小題2:According to the author, that today's children seem adult-like results from ____________.
A．the widespread influence of television
B．the poor arrangement of teaching content
C．the fast pace of human scientific development
D．the rising standard of living
小題3: What does the author think of communication through print for children?
A．It enables children to gain more social information.
B．It develops children's interest in reading and writing.
C．It helps children to read and write well.
D．It can control what children are to learn.
小題4:What does the author think of the change in today's children?
A．He feels their adult-like behavior is so funny.
B．He thinks the change worthy of note.
C．He considers it a rapid development.
D．He seems to be upset about it.

My first most vivid and broad impression of the identity of things seems to me to have been gained on a memorable raw afternoon towards evening near my parents’ tomb in the churchyard.
“Hold your noise!” came a terrible voice, as a man started up from among the tombs at the side of the church. “Keep still, you little devil(小鬼), or I’ll cut your throat!”
A fearful man, all in coarse grey, with a great iron on his leg. A man with no hat, and with broken shoes, and with an old rag tied round his head. He seized me by the chin(下巴).
“Tell us your name!” said the man. “Quick!”
“Pip, sir.”
“Show us where you live,” said the man. “Point out the place!”
I pointed to where our village lay, on the flat in-shore among the alder-trees and pollards, a mile or more from the church.
The man, after looking at me for a moment, turned me upside down, and emptied my pockets. There was nothing in them but a piece of bread.
“You young dog,” said the man, licking his lips, “what fat cheeks you ha’ got. Darn me if I couldn’t eat em, and if I han’t half a mind to’t!”
I earnestly expressed my hope that he wouldn’t, and held tighter to the tombstone on which he had put me; partly, to keep myself upon it; partly, to keep myself from crying.
“Now then lookee here!” said the man. “Where’s your mother?”
“There, sir!” said I.
He started, made a short run, and stopped and looked over his shoulder.
“There, sir!” I timidly explained, pointed to the tombstone. “That’s my mother.”
“Oh!” said he, coming back. “And is that your father alonger your mother?”
“Yes, sir,” said I; “him too; late of thisparish(教區(qū)).”
小題1: The “voice” in the second paragraph came from______.
A．the churchB．the manC．the bankD．the boy
小題2:The boy probably lived  _____.
A．in the parishB．in the valleyC．in the cityD．in the country

D．the man was very kind and considerate
小題4:The passage is most probably adapted from________.
