A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the       was he found himself unable to ask for help — his mobile phone went out of        as a result of exhausted battery. Nothing could be done but to       in cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the        of the rescue.
It is almost       that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his       : "First of all I checked up my        conditions and found myself not in mortal （致命的）danger. As there was no way to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from      . In this way I dozed （打盹）off ."
His story put an end to my regret for the       of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men       to explore a mountain cave and got lost.        to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of        .Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the       people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the        of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to        themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering （閃爍）not far away .
Don’t you think that you can compare it with        itself? When you meet with obstacles （障礙）in life and work, you are lost in darkness.     you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle        . It seems to be a negative attitude,        a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great       in the first place.

Computer programmer David Jones earns ￡35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card(信用卡). Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18. The 16­year­old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David' s firm releases(推出) two new games for the fast growing computer market each month.
But David's biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage(抵押貸款),or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool­based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O­levels and working for a time in a computer shop.“I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,”he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.
“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,”he said.“But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.”David added：“I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”
小題1:In what way is David different from people of his age?
A．He often goes out with friends.
B．He lives with his mother.
C．He has a handsome income.
D．He graduated with six O­levels.
小題2:What is one of the problems that David is facing now?
A．He is too young to get a credit card.
B．He has no time to learn driving.
C．He has very little spare time.
D．He will soon lose his job.

A．He had done well in all his exams.
B．He had written some computer programs.
C．He was good at playing computer games.
D．He had learnt to use computers at school.
小題4:Why did David decide to leave school and start working?
A．He received lots of job offers.

She once said: "When people ask me if writing has been a hard or easy road I always answer with the famous saying, "the end is nothing; the road is all.'” That is what I mean when I say writing has been a pleasure. I have never faced the type-writer (打字機) with the thought that one more task had to be done."
Like most writers, Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they brought her, but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing. Her works were, like her, simple and full of the vigor (活力) of her days in Nebraska, where she grew from childhood to young womanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the Great Plains with its wild flowers, wheat fields and rivers.
"It's a rather strange thing about the flat country," she wrote later. "It takes hold of you, or it leaves you perfectly cold. A great many people find it very dull; they like a church tower, an old factory, a waterfall country all made to look like a German, Christmas card... But when I come to the open plains, something happens. I'm home. I breathe differently."
小題1:What did Cather mean by "the end is nothing; the road is all"?
A．Writing is the only path to success.
B．I feel happy when I finish writing a book.
C．I enjoy writing whether it is hard or easy.
D．Writing itself, not its result, is important.
小題2:What was the place like where Cather grew up?
A．It was cold, plain and without a church.
B．It was a colorful world of wild flowers.
C．It was like a German Christmas card
D．It was vast, open, flat and wild.
小題3:When she said "It takes hold of you, or it leaves you perfectly cold", Willa Gather meant ______.
A．you either love the place or hate it
B．you decide either to stay or to leave
C．some find the place warm; others find it cold
D．some find the place peaceful; others find it wild
小題4:What happens when Cather comes to the open plains?
A．She breathes differently from others:
B．She wants to make the place her home.
C．She finds the place similar to her home.
D．She feels completely comfortable

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

One day, when I was working as a psychologist(心理學家) in England, a young boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had introduced him to me before. “This boy has lost his family,” he wrote. “He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I’m very worried about him. Can you help?” 
I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems which psychology doesn’t have the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and silently. And I would do in this way.
The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon—in complete silence and without looking at me. It’s not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice. 
Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me? 
“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,” I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.” Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly. 
“It’s your turn,” he said. 
After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life. 
Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one—without any words—can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens. 
小題1:When he first met the author, David_________. 
A．felt a little excitedB．walked stubbornly
C．looked a little nervousD．showed up with his teacher
小題2:As a psychologist, the author __________.
A．was uncertain about psychologyB．was ready to listen to David
C．was able to describe David’s problemD．was sure of solving David’s problem
小題3:David enjoyed being with the author because he____________.
A．needed to share pain with the author
B．wanted to ask the author for advice
C．liked the children’s drawing in the office
