下面是一篇應(yīng)用文及其應(yīng)用場合,請閱讀下列應(yīng)用文和相關(guān)信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

首先,請閱讀下列應(yīng)用文:

Great Swimming Adventures

     If you’re a keen swimmer, this could be for you — great swimming adventures around the world including swimming in the Bay of Islands in New Zealand, the Greek Cyclades islands, or with seals in the Hebrides.

The Magic of Romania’s Mountains on Foot — & with a Donkey

     Explore the fantastic scenery, sites and sounds f the Apuseni Mountains in Romania on a walking and hiking holiday. Suitable for families and groups. The holidays are accompanied with one donkey per adult to carry luggage!

Vocation, Vocation

     Why not test-drive your dream job on your holiday? It could be the start of a whole range of different opportunities. Travel to the USA, where jobs to try include a sports announcer in Tennessee, a boot maker in Oklahoma or an architect in Boston.

Out of space

     Get a unique insight into space with a visit to Russia on a space tour — including a visit to the Star City Training Center, where astronauts are trained. The itinerary (行程) is tailored to meet your interests — an incredible experience for any space fans.

Go Wild on an Art Safari

     Perfect for art lovers, this is a painting holiday in a fantastically unspoiled setting — Malawi. With good tuition and surrounded by the beautiful scenery, sites and sounds of this African country art holidays don’t get much better.

Exploring the Deep Blue Sea

     If you love the ocean why not take a deep water expedition, with trips in submersibles (潛水器) to wrecks (失事船) such as the Bismark, the Titanic and the HMS Breadalbane under the Arctic. Plus see amazing marine life — for holidays offering real adventure these are hard to beat.

    請閱讀以下度假者的信息,然后匹配他或她適合的假期生活:

Glen has always shown his strong attraction to the sea. His father used to be a sailor and often tells him some interesting stories on wrecks. Glen wishes he would become a sailor just like his father and that he could take real water adventures some day. Perhaps he will have a chance to refloat those famous wrecks in history.

Melvin, a born “artist”, enjoys painting very much. His parents give him much support and encourage him to study hard so as to be successful as painter.

While others go to school by bike or by bus, Wendy always goes to school on foot, which she thinks is important and necessary to keep fit. This summer, her family are planning to take a holiday abroad without taking any vehicles. The destination is likely to be a country of southeast Europe to enjoy the beautiful scenery there.

Boris is always dreaming of flying to the moon one day in the future. He always worships those who have ever had an adventure in space. Of course, it is, as he himself knows, not so easy to realize such a big dream, for that needs to be athletic enough to get trained in all ways before going into space.

Emma likes drawing very much, but she has hardly considered to be an artist one day. Instead, she wishes to be admitted to a famous university and learn the science of designing and constructing buildings, which also needs one’s ability of drawing.

What can you do if you "lose" the data(數(shù)據(jù))from your disks(硬盤)? To find an expert, who can recover the lost information for you, is probably the easiest solution. Jack Olson is one of these experts. Jack and a few of his friends set up a company called "Jack's Disk Doctor Service". They work from home and give all the money they earn to charity(慈善團(tuán)體). The fees are always the same, no matter how precious the data on the disk is. Some people, however, are so grateful that they send extra money to Jack or to the charities his company supports. One oil company offered him $2,000 for his help and an architect even sent him a blank check.

It would be difficult to put a value on the things rescued by the Disk Doctor. There have been disks which contain medical research, television scripts, manuscripts of whole books, a lawyer's papers for a court case, and even Margaret Thatcher's travel plan for a visit to eastern Europe. For this last case, Jack had to go in person to Thatcher's office "for security reasons"!

Disks are usually sent to the Disk Doctor by post, but sometimes people are in such a hurry that they cannot wait for the mail to come. For example, some radio scripts had to be rushed by taxi to Jack's house because they were needed for broadcasting the next day. When the material has been recovered, the disk is returned to the sender with a diagnosis(診斷)and a prescription for avoiding the problem in the future. One grateful client(顧客), and author, put a "thank you" to Jack in the front of his book, "Jack saved me from a heart attack," he wrote. "But," says Jack, "most people don't take any notice of the doctor's advice!"

Why did the architect send Jack a blank check?

A. The architect did not have any money.

B. The architect did it for security reasons.

C. The architect always followed the doctor's advice.

D. The architect thought Jack's service was priceless.

What does the underlined word "rescued" mean?

A. Recovered.       B. Prescribed.      C. Examined.       D. Lost.

Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. Jack's Disk Doctor Service has only one standard fee.

B. Jack and his company have made a fortune from their service.

C. Margaret Thatcher is a very important person.

D. Jack's clients are from all walks of life.

科目:高中英語 來源:2010-2011學(xué)年西藏拉薩中學(xué)高三上學(xué)期第三次月考英語卷 題型:閱讀理解

       New York: When the first plane struck 1 World Trade Center at 8:48 am on Tuesday, the people in 2 World Trade Center who saw the instant (瞬間的) damage to the other tower realized clearly what they, too, must do: get out fast.

Katherine Ilachinsiki, who had been knocked off her chair by the blast (一陣)of heat exploding from the neighboring tower, was one of those. Despite her 70 years of age, Mrs Ilachinsiki, an architect working on the 91st floor of 2 World Trade Center, the south tower, went for the stairs. Twelve floors above her, Judy Wein, an executive (經(jīng)理), cried sharply and set off too.

But others up and down the 110 floors, many without seeing the damage across the way and thus unclear about what was happening, were not so sure. And the 18 minutes before the next plane would hit were ticking off.

Most people had no idea about what was the best thing to do, formal announcements inside the south tower asked people to stay put, assuring them that the building was sound and the threat was limited to the other tower.

Some left, others stayed. Some began to climb down and, when met with more announcements and other cautions (警告) to stop or return, went back up. The decisions made in those instants proved to be of great importance, because many who chose to stay were killed completely when the second plane crashed into the south tower.

One of those caught in indecision (猶豫不決) was the executive at Fuji Bank USA.

Richard Jacobs of Fuji Bank left the 79th floor with the other office workers, but on the 48th floor they heard the announcement that the situation was under control. Several got in the lifts and went back up, two minutes or so before the plane crashed into their floor.

“I just don’t know what happened to them,” Mr Jacobs said.

1.From the passage, we know that the south tower was hit by the plane ________.

A.a(chǎn)t 8:30

B.18 minutes earlier than the north tower

C.a(chǎn)t around 9:06

D.a(chǎn)t 8:48

2.The underlined words “stay put” means ________.

A.stay in the building

B.leave at once

C.put everything back and then leave

D.keep silent

3.Which floor was hit by the second plane?

A.The 91st floor

B.The 103rd floor

C.The 60th floor

D.The 79th floor

4.Fewer people would have died if       .

A.more announcements had been made

B.people hadn’t used the lifts

C.the attack had happened on a weekend

D.the people had obeyed the office rules
