小題1:D考查動詞辨析。A. showing展示,B. explaining解釋,C. proving證明,D. wondering懷疑,根據(jù)第一段最后一句,為什么那些人如此有錢卻從不滿足,還想得到更多?芍蜇Υ税偎疾坏闷浣,“keep wondering”(一直想知道)符合句意。
小題2:B考查形容詞辨析。A. relaxed  B. satisfied  C worried  D. depressed還想得到的更多,所以不滿足,“Never satisfy”(從不滿足)符合句意。
小題3:C考查動詞辨析。由常識可知,乞丐最重要的是要解決吃和穿的問題。eat(吃)對應下面提到的“穿”符合情景,learn“學習”,watch“看、觀察”,play“游戲”,均不符合情景。
小題4:A考查名詞辨析。根據(jù)第一段,乞丐在沿街乞討,所以財富女神降落到大街上才能看到乞丐。street(街道)符合文意。bridge“橋”,yard“院子”,forest“森林”,均不符合文意。
小題5:C考查動詞辨析。根據(jù)下文,打開你的錢包,我要給你一些金子,可知財富女神在幫助乞丐。所以選help意為:“幫助”。praise“表揚”,forgive“原諒”, comfort“安慰”,均不符合情景。
小題6:D考查名詞辨析。A. coat外套,B. pocket 口袋,C. box盒子,D. wallet錢包,根據(jù)第三段中“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold”(所有進入你錢包的都是純金)可知乞丐打開的是一個錢包,所以選 wallet,“錢包”。

小題8:C考查名詞辨析。A. hand手,B. feet腳,C ground地面,D. corner角落,語境為:每一枚金幣掉到地上都會變成塵土,ground(地面)符合情景。
小題9:C考查動詞短語辨析。根據(jù)下文財富女神告誡乞丐不要裝的太重,提醒乞丐注意、當心。所以選look out。look after照顧,look up仰視、向上看,look down俯視。
小題10:C考查形容詞辨析。A. large大的,B. empty空的,C worn用舊的,D. full滿的,結合上題,財富女神提醒乞丐當心,下文又提醒乞丐“so don’t load it too heavily,”最后一段中告訴我們,錢包壞了,由此可以看出,這是一個舊錢包,所以選worn,意思是:“用舊的”。
小題11:B考查動詞辨析,A. stand 站,忍受,B. wait等待,C. breathe呼吸,D. think思考, could hardly wait to do意為:“迫不及待的干某事”。句意:激動的乞丐早已迫不及待的想拿到金子。

小題13:C考查動詞辨析。A. disturb打擾,B. request要求,C fear害怕,D. insist堅持,通過乞丐告訴財富女神錢包現(xiàn)在還很結實,可知不要為錢包擔心。Never fear“不要害怕”。

小題15:A考查動詞。A. pour流出,B. end結束,C. dry變干,D. melt融化,乞丐希望金子源源不斷的流出,四個選項中只有pour(流出)能形象的描繪出乞丐的貪婪。
小題16:B考查動詞辨析。對應前文的“Just a little more,”可知,這里表達的意思是:貪婪的乞丐想再往錢包中多裝一兩把金子。add(添加)符合句意。take拿、攜帶”,lend“借出” ,send“送給”,均不符合情景。最后一段的第一句話也有原詞復現(xiàn): One more piece was added and the wallet split。
小題17:B考查動詞辨析。A. flow流動,B. burst 突然爆發(fā),破裂,C disappear消失,D. change改變,錢包已經(jīng)裝滿了,而且是一個舊錢包,繼續(xù)裝可能會裂開。所以選burst“破裂”。最后一句話中的“split”為同義詞復現(xiàn)。
小題18:D考查動詞辨析。A. attract吸引,B. permit允許,C include包括,D. hold持有,保存,貪婪的乞丐認為錢包還能多裝一點。hold“保存”符合語境。

There are two types of people in the world.Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy and the other becomes unhappy.This is because of the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.
People who are to be happy pay their attention to the good side of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather.They enjoy all the cheerful things.Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things.Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied.By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, hurt many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere.The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes.I hope this little warning may help them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck.Nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect.This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments.they should change their bad habits .If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them.Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.

One of my main concerns when I am helping people achieve their goals is how they measure success. I see individuals getting frustrated as they struggle hard for success.
One of the main reasons that cause this frustration is that people allow their definition of success to be determined by someone or something else. Another is that they become frustrated at their own apparent lack of success when comparing themselves to other people.
We are individuals with individual wants, skills and experiences. We should look at our own skills to determine what is successful to us. We should look inwards to determine what it would mean for us to be successful in our own mind rather than someone else’s.
Evaluating a successful person needs to look at his pathway to success, his actions ,his determination and translate that into his own experience to see how he can improve himself.
You must set your own course of action, and stay on your course. You alone must determine what success means to you. Do what you do to the best of your ability and the rest will take care of itself. For example, I believe that I am successful but I am not a millionaire! Others may not see me as successful in their eyes but that does not matter. It is how I see myself that is important to me and my life.
Here is the truth. Being a success is doing your best, not being the best. Success is not something you become; it is something you continue being.
When we get to that point, we will experience a lot more joy and a lot less frustration. And that sounds good to us!
Remember the great quote from Napoleon Hill, “If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.”
小題1:What’s the best title of this passage?
A.Frustration Determines Success
B.The Importance of Frustration to Success
C.How to Measure Success
D.Evaluations of a Successful Person
小題2:In terms of success, the writer thinks people feel frustrated because they_____
A.struggle too hardB.know little about others
C.a(chǎn)re often discouragedD.underestimate themselves
小題3:Which is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Success is something you keep on being rather than you become.
B.Evaluating a successful person needs to look at others’ judgment.
C.It doesn’t matter others may not consider you as a success in their eyes.
D.It matters that you set your own course of action and stay on it.
小題4:According to the passage the writer advises us to_____.
A.a(chǎn)ttach the importance to others’ attitude and evaluation
B.learn from others ,failure
C.set a proper goal and strive to realize it
D.look at others’ skills to determine what is successful to us

科目:高中英語 來源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or a creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing(內(nèi)化) your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.
Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives, but they don’t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred(神圣的) moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.
Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish (沉溺) in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others—and even themselves—to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.
In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.    In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have a fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.
小題1:What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?
A.People and things around you.
B.Opportunities and problems.
C.Creators and their choices.
D.Victims and their sufferings.
小題2:According to Paragraph 2, creators __________.
A.seem willing to experience failures in life
B.possess the ability to predict future life
C.handle ups and downs of life wisely
D.have potential to create something new
小題3:What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A.Creators and victims face quite different things in life.
B.Creators and victims are masters of their lives.
C.Victims can influence more people than creators.
D.Compared with victims, creators are more emotional.
小題4:The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that __________.
A.strong attachment to (沉浸在)sufferings in life pulls people into victims
B.people need family support to deal with challengers in life
C.it takes creators quite a long time to get rid of their pains
D.one’s experiences determine his attitude toward life
小題5:What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A.To define victims and creators.
B.To evaluate victims against creators.
C.To explain the relationship between victims and creators.
D.To suggest the transformation from victims to creators.

For most of my 15 years, my father usually said very little to my mother and me. He preferred reading the newspaper or watching football matches on television to talking to his family.
Everything changed one morning. As soon as I came downstairs to breakfast, I could see that he wasn’t his usual reserved (緘默的) self. “Can’t wait! FIFA World Cup! Big match! Must see!”    I quickly figured out what all the excitement was about: Dad is a big football fan.
I had never been interested in football, but Dad’s excitement that morning made me more and more curious. I had to find out why this sport was making my normally reserved father act like a five-year-old on his first trip to Disneyland.
Dad decided that we should all eat at a little German restaurant so that we could watch the World Cup while eating. Secretly, I think he was hoping to turn Mum and me into football fans.
The match started a few minutes after we entered the restaurant. As I was eating my meal, a loud noise came from the television. Surprised, I looked up at the TV: “Why is that man jumping up and down?” Dad patiently explained: “That’s Papa Bouba Diop, my son. It’s normal for them to jump up and down after they’ve scored.”
Dad explained almost everything to me. His monosyllabic (單音節(jié)的) answers were a thing of the past. I loved the new Dad! I watched the rest of the match, becoming more and more interested. When I told my father that I planned to watch more matches with him, he smiled and gave me a wink (眨眼). At long last we had something in common.
Football has really helped Dad and me get closer and form a stronger relationship with each other. Who says football is only about 22 men running after a silly ball?
小題1:Which of the following words can best describe the author’s father?
A.A talkative football player.B.A parent busy at work.
C.An encouraging father.D.A man of few words.
小題2:What made the author curious about his father one morning?
A.His unusual excitement.
B.His unexpressed eagerness.
C.His great interest in the newspaper.
D.His high expectation of the winner.
小題3:The author’s growing interest in watching the match mainly came from________.
A.his and his father’s common love of German food
B.watching a top level performance of the players
C.his father’s love of football and his explanation
D.eating in a restaurant with the excited fans
小題4:What can we learn from the passage?
A.Sharing is the foundation of good relationship.
B.Family members should be fans together.
C.Interest is the mother of success.
D.Personality decides everything.

A true friendship carries-a-long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should protect. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the more probably you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want an end to the relationship.
The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open . second, apologize when you’re wrong – even if you’ve been wronged. Over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes. When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyle change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy.
