His parents were told to take him home to die after his rare leukaemia(白血病)returned a THIRD time.”They said there was nothing more they could do and gave him a few weeks to live,” says his mum Claire,26. “But that was six months ago and just look at him now! No one can explain why the cancer has suddenly disappeared. The surgeon who phoned me with the news asid he couldn’t believe it. I just burst into tears”.
Jordan, now three, began his amazing battle with leukaemia at just ten weeks old.Claire and her husband Gery,30, were told their son only had a 10% chance of survival. Jordan put up with six months of chemotherapy(化療) despite being the youngest patient with cancer that doctors at Yorkhill Children’s Hospital in Glasgow had ever treated. And after he had a bone marrow transplant(骨髓移植) in April,2006 it seemed that the cancer was gone.”He started nursery and we really thought we had put this behind us,” says Claire. But in February the following year Jordan fell ill again and was saved by more chemotherapy and a transplant of matching stem cells(干細(xì)胞) from a baby in Barcelona. His family sighed with relief again. But in November, 2008 blood tests showed it was back. “The doctors told us to enjoy what few weeks he had left,” says Claire.

第三部分：閱讀理解（共20題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項中，選出最佳選項。
From age eight to eleven, I attended a small school in Bath, England. It was a small school of four classes with about twenty-five children in each class according to age. For the most part, one teacher had to teach all subjects to the children in the class. However, sometimes the headmaster, Mr. Ronald Broaches, would come in and spend an hour or so, teaching some subjects in which he was especially interested. He was a large man with a very happy nature. He had a sense of humor and would delight in telling the children small stories that would make us laugh. He was a very fair man and had a great influence on many of the children. In my own case, I found that he took great interest in me and he quickly found that I enjoyed puzzles. He would often stop me as I was going to class and take a piece of paper out of his pocket, often with a puzzle already on it. The puzzles were usually mathematical or logical. As time went on, they slowly got more difficult, but I loved them. Not only that, they made me interested in math and problem solving that stays with me to this day. They also served to show me that intellectual activity was rewarding when the correct answers were found, but perhaps more importantly it was great fun. To this day, I can remember Mr. Broaches’ cheerful cry of “Well done!” whenever I got a problem right. The simple communication with a man whom I loved greatly has had a deep influence on my life. I shall forever be thankful that our paths crossed. Mr. Broaches died just two weeks after I had won the 1993 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Unluckily, I had no chance to speak to him before he died. I learnt later that he had heard of my success and I will always hope that he knew the deep influence he had made on my life.
56. There were ________ children in each class when Richard was in     the school in Bath, England.
A. 4          B. 8        C. 11              D. 25
57. From the text, we can learn that ___________.
A. the puzzles made the students laugh
B. the students were afraid of the headmaster
C. the puzzles made Richard enjoy math
D. the headmaster never taught in the school
58. The writer felt sorry because __________.
A. Mr. Broaches had passed away before he won the Nobel Prize
B. he didn’t express his thanks before Mr. Broaches died
C. he couldn’t find Mr. Broaches after he grew up
D. Mr. Broaches didn’t know his success
59. What is the best title（標(biāo)題）for the text ?
A. The Story of Mr. Broaches.
B. The Story of Richard J. Roberts.
C. My Early School Life.
D. An Important Teacher in My Life.

After successfully serving their term for 4 years, military service men and women are given the choice to stay in the military or return to civilian（平民）life.
For some, having to readjust to civilian life is one of the most challenging assignments our returning soldiers and marines（水兵）will ever have to undertake. While people may think readjusting should be simple, they must take into consideration all the physical and mental stress our servicemen went through.
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder（創(chuàng)傷后應(yīng)急障礙）,　or PTSD, is a mental disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as military combat（打仗）.
Most survivors of trauma return to normal given a little time. In the military, the marines are given a two-week course on how to return to civilian life.
Unfortunately, some will have stress reactions that do not go away on their own, or may even get worse over time. These individuals may develop PTSD.
People who suffer from PTSD have difficulty sleeping because they are often reliving the experience through nightmares（夢魘）and flashbacks, and feel deserted or often stand off, and these symptoms can be severe enough and last long enough to significantly damage the person’s daily life.
Fullerton College, like most colleges, has its own Veteran’s（老兵）Office. Ray Bustos has been running the office for 3 years. Bustos acts as a liaison（聯(lián)絡(luò)） for the school and the veteran students. He makes sure the veterans returning to school get the right benefits. There are various types of financial aid for soldiers and marines. He strongly encourages the use of the Veterans Affairs website.
The website is very informative and extremely helpful for veterans as well as for friends and relatives of veterans who want to learn more.
小題1:One purpose of the writer in writing the passage is ________________.
A．to introduce some methods to cure PTSD
B．to instruct PTSD patients to return to civilian life
C．to recommend a website for veterans and people concerned
D．to give military service men and women advice on civilian life
小題2:What problems will some returning soldiers and marines meet with?
A．How to readjust to civilian life.B．How to get rid of mental diseases
C．How to get along with PTSD patientsD．How to return to school for benefits.
小題3:Which of the following is true about Ray Bustos?
A．He’s a veteran who has just come back from a military combat.
B．He runs Fullerton College with a veteran office.
C．He’s in charge of an office dealing with veteran affairs.
D．He provides a lot of financial aid for soldiers and marines.
小題4:The best title for the passage is __________.
A. PTSD: Killer of A Civilian Life.          B. The Last Assignment For All Military Persons
C. How to Overcome PTSD.                   D. Ready for a Civilian Life?

第二部分：閱讀理解（共25題，第一節(jié)每題2分，第二節(jié)每題1分）
第一節(jié)：閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A，B，C和D）中，選出最佳選項。
Trouve sat up on its back legs arid growled（吼叫）the words “How are you, Grandmama?” The audience roared with laughter and clapped. Twenty-year-old Aleck gave the dog a morsel（一口）of food. His hard wok paid off. His dog could talk!
Aleck was fascinated with the different sounds of people’s speech. His father taught students who had a speech problem to improve their speech. Aleck paid close attention. Could an animal form sounds into words, too? He decided to experiment with Trouve, the family dog.
The easy part was teaching Trouve to growl whenever Aleck wanted. The little dog growled for a morsel of food.
Next Aleck moved the dog’s “l(fā)ips’ as it growled. It sounded like “ma ma ma.” Trouve learned quickly to stop the growling just as Aleck’s hand moved away. They practiced and practiced until the dog said “ma ma” perfectly.
Soon Aleck discovered more. If he pushed gently under the dog’s jawbone（下顎骨）, it made the “ga” sound. If he pushed once and moved the dog’s lips twice, he could make the dog say, “ga ma ma”. With even more practice, it sounded like “grandmama.” Whenever Trouve said “grandmam,” Aleck gave the god two treats, so Trouve loved the lessons.
Aleck tried to teach his dog to move its tongue. So that Trouve could say more words. That didn’t work, but Aleck didn’t give up.
After many hours of practice, Trouve could say, “Ow ah oo ga-ma-ma?” This sounded just like “How are you, Grandmama?”
Friends and neighbors traveled to see young Aleck and his amazing talking dog. Rumors spread that the dog could speak by itself, which wasn’t true. No matter how much Aleck tried, the dog was never able to move its lips without help.
Aleck’s full name was Alexander Graham Bell. He wanted to know more about the world all his life. He had many ideas. Some worked; others didn’t. But he kept trying—always learning; One of his inventions was something called the telephone.
41．Which of the following is TRUE of Aleck?
A．His father had an influence on him.      
B．He had a talent for giving speeches.
C．He taught Trouve to talk in honor of his grandmother.
D．He carried out many experiments to improve people’s speech.
42．Trouve grew fond of practicing talking because         .
A．it liked being together with Aleck  B．it was given some food for that
C．it would like to develop its potential      D．Aleck treated it like one of the family
43．Which of the following words can best describe Aleck?
A．Humorous.      B．Naughty.  C．Knowledgeable.       D．Curious.
44．What contributes most to Aleck’s success in teaching the dog to talk?
A．His own hard work.         B．His neighbor’s help.
C．His father’s encouragement.    D．The dog’s smartness.

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解


When I was a boy every holiday that I had seemed perfect. My parents took me by train or by car to a hotel by the sea. All day, I seem to remember. I played on the sands with strange exciting children. We make sandcastles with huge yellow walls, and watched the incoming tide destroy them; we splashed each other in the water and shrieked with excitement. When the tide went out, we climbed over the slippery rocks and stared down at the fish and the seaweed in the rock-pools.
In those far-off days the sun seemed to shine constantly and the water was always warm. Sometimes we left the beach and walked in the country, exploring ruined houses and dark woods and climbing trees that overhung streams. There were always sweets in one’s pockets or convenient places where one could buy ice-creams. Each day seemed a life-time.
Although I am now an adult, my idea of a good holiday is much the same as it was. I still like the sun and the warm sand and the sound of waves breaking on the beach. I no longer wish to build sandcastles and I dislike sweets instantly, but I look forward to sitting down to a good meal and a bottle of wine in the evening.
I think, too, that I prefer spending my holiday abroad. I want to smell different smells; I want to see different kinds of trees, flowers and birds; and I also want to see people with different colored skins, wearing different kinds of clothes. Above all, I want to hear a different language spoken and listen to different musical rhythms from those I am used to.
But I still need my companions----not, of course, to play on the sands and eat ices with, but to drink with and talk to on warm moonlit nights.
Sometimes I wonder what my perfect holiday will be when I am old. All I shall want to do then, I expect, will be to lie in bed, reading books about children who make sandcastles with huge yellow walls, who watch the incoming tide, who make themselves sick on too many ices…
39.Where did the author mostly spend his holidays when he was young?
A.In the countryside.   B.On the beach.   C.In the mountains.    D.On the sea.
40.What does the underlined word “shrieked” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.shouted    B.swam    C.struggled    D.surfed
41.What now interests the author as an adult is ____.
A.to enjoy a nice dinner                    B.to spend his holiday sunbathing
C.to chat with someone                    D.to experience a foreign culture
42.When the author grows old, he expects that ____.
A.he will read more books about children
B.he will lie in bed without worrying about anything
C.he will bring back wonderful childhood memories from a book
D.he will make sandcastles with his children
