I was in lodgings (寄宿處) now, on my own, but the other lodgers had constant visitors up and down the stairs past my door. None of this disturbed me except one girl who sang softly to herself an old Russian folk song as she ran up to the room above. It was a sound of sweetness, musical, soft, unselfconscious and happy. I began to listen out for it, jumped up from my table, and threw open the door to catch a glimpse(一瞥) of her as she passed, but I was always too late. I asked the people upstairs who she was, and described the beautiful sounds she made. They became rather reserved(拘謹(jǐn)) and exchanged glances and hurriedly admitted it might be Sally. I thought she was someone special, not to be discussed in the ordinary way, and became a little curious to meet her. But the last thing I wanted at that stage was to get caught up with anybody. I’d just come to the end of a rather painful friendship, and now I had work to do.

One day, I came face to face with a girl on the landing. It was certainly her; whoever made that noise would look as she did. We stood and stared at each other too long for comfort. I broke the moment and, excusing myself, moved past her because it was too like the movies. I thought for some time of that long, silent stare, and laughed. She was tall and looked proud, with a slight , round-shouldered look that made me breathless and I didn’t know why.

1.At his lodgings, the author __________.

A．seldom had visitors

B．wished he had more visitors

C．was always disturbed by other people’s visitors

D．had too many visitors.

2.Whenever the author heard the sound of the girl’s voice__________.

A．he sat listening to it

B．he saw her moving upstairs

C．he threw down his books

D．he tried to see who it was

3.People who were asked about the girl__________.

A．told him all about her

B．didn’t want to tell him much

C．didn’t tell him anything

D．were angry when he mentioned her

4.From this passage we can see that the author was____________.

A．was not interested in Sally

B．curiously attracted by Sally

C．a(chǎn)ngry at being disturbed by Sally

D．a(chǎn)fraid to get to know Sally

科目：高中英語 來源：20102011年山東省濟(jì)南市高二下學(xué)期期末考試英語試題 題型：閱讀理解

閱讀下面的短文，并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題（請注意問題后的字?jǐn)?shù)要求）。

[1] I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day. But I became invisible, absent from the conversation.

[2] The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Recently I was in a car with three friends. The driver told us to be quiet because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phone. There we were, four friends going down the highway, unable to talk to one another because of a tool designed to make communication easier.

[3]Why is it that the more connected we get, ________________________ ? Every advance in communications technology is a hurt to the closeness of human interaction (互動). With e-mail and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone.

[4] More and more, l find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn’t really have time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier.

 [5] So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell-phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I' m home.

1. What does the author say about communications technology according to the first two paragraphs? (within 15 words)

_________________________________________________________________________

2.Which sentences in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?

However, I felt left out as if we were not conducting the conversation.

_________________________________________________________________________

3. Fill in the blanks in Paragraph 3 with proper words. (within 10 words)

_________________________________________________________________________

4. Does the author restrict (約束) his own activity to improving the situation? Give an example. How？(within 15 words)

_________________________________________________________________________

5. Translate the underlined sentences in Paragraph 4 into Chinese.

________________________________________________________________________
