My first reaction was annoyance. It was Friday afternoon, and I was within an hour of finishing my work for the week. As I was leaving, a nurse brought me one more patient message. The statement read: "Mm. Jones called to say that she has had blurred vision (視覺模糊) ever since her medical test this morning." I smiled.  Suddenly our tests were causing eye problems.

      This week my patients had questioned everything. My patient with high blood pressure had stopped coming to her treatment on the advice of an Internet chat room. A woman who had a mental problem was substituting (用......代替) St. John’s word for her medication. Now Mrs. Jones was imagining problems. I rolled my eyes.

    My second reaction was worry. As I looked through her record, I tried to figure out why she would have blurred vision, but nothing in her record explained the new problem. She’s probably just anxious, I thought. Still, she wouldn't have called if she had been all right. I picked up the phone.

    What I next felt can only be described as delight. Before I made the call, the nurse ran in: Mrs. Jones called. Her vision is fine. Turns out she picked up the wrong glasses when she left the office. The X-ray technician has been having the same problem. I let out a laugh. Mrs. Jones had been right. Her vision had been blurred. Now we know why.

Finally I felt shame. I came to realize what Mrs. Jones had taught me. I had first known she was wrong, that her anxiety had clouded hex judgment. Instead, my medical training had clouded mine. Now I feel thankful that Mrs. Jones figured it out before I made a mistake about our relationship. Patients come to me for my help. They pay me to listen, diagnose (診斷), treat and talk. That suggests trust; I must remember that, and trust them too.               

61. The writer smiled while reading the patient message because he knew_____.

       A. Mrs. Jones would ask for more tests

      B. the patient was being unreasonable

   C. the nurse was joking with him

   D. Mrs. Jones would call him

62. What has caused Mrs. Jones’ eye problem? 

      A. Wrong glasses.        B. Medical checkup.

       C. Her own imagination.                   D. Chatting on the Internet.

63. The underlined words "clouded her judgment" in the last paragraph probably mean_______.

       A. made her less trustful toward the doctor

       B. put her in control of her own feelings

      C. made her less able to think clearly

      D. put her in a dangerous situation

Flowers only bloom(開花) when they are planted in the right soil. That is also true for me.

I first moved to Foxboro, Massachusetts, as a single mother with my baby daughter, Darcy. I was drawn to its New England beauty, friendly people and rich history. It happened that there were a lot of forsythia(連翹) bushes around the house in which I lived just like my childhood home. I joined St. Mark’s Episcopal Church where I taught the Sunday school. At church, I met my second husband, Dean. For more than 25 years, I bloomed in Foxboro, and I had another two children.

Then, when Darcy was a few years out of college, she moved to Alameda, California, to be near friends. I missed her badly. A year later my beloved husband Dean had deadly cancer. He only made it eight months. My heart was broken. Later I moved to Alameda with my children. It was a beautiful Victorian island, and I was grateful to spend more time with Darcy. I even attended a church and made a few friends there. Still, I couldn’t help but miss Foxboro. It had everything and everyone I loved.

One spring day, when I was walking by a school, something yellow caught my eyes. Forsythia bushes! They made me homesick and I kept back my tears. “I miss you, Foxboro,” I whispered. Then I went into a shop and looked at some ceramic(陶瓷的) pots lined up on a shelf. A large white one seemed to catch my attention. “That’ll be perfect in my living room,” I thought.

I turned it over to look at the price. Instead I found these words: “New England Pottery, Foxboro, Massachusetts.” A piece of artwork, from my second hometown, was right here. It was able to spread across the country and so were forsythia bushes. I took it as a sign that I can bloom, right where I am.

1.From the text we learn that the author ____.

A.gave birth to three children in Foxboro

B.planted forsythia bushes around her house

C.got to know her second husband at church

D.worked as a middle school teacher in Foxboro

2.The author moved to Alameda so that she could ____.

A.have more time together with Darcy

B.forget the sorrow at her husband’s death

C.visit her children at Alameda College frequently

D.enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Victorian island

3.When the author saw forsythia bushes at a school she _____.

A.wanted to buy a ceramic pot to put them in

B.thought of her life in Foxboro

C.felt they would look great in her living room

D.believed they were real art work

4.Why does the author compare herself to flowers?

A.Because she wanted to show she likes flowers.

B.Because she can live in any place that is right like flowers.

C.Because she moved across the country just like flowers.

D.Because girls are like flowers that are blooming.

Last year, two days after Christmas, we kicked China out of the house. Not the country obviously, but bits of plastic, metal, and wood with the words “Made in China”. We kept what we already had, but stopped bringing any more in. because it had coated our lives with toys, and useless stuff. Sometimes I worried about jobs sent overseas, but price triumphed over virtue at our house. We couldn’t resist what China was selling.

But on that dark Monday last year, an unease feeling washed over me as I sat on the sofa. It wasn’t until then that I noticed a fact: China was taking over the place.

It stared back at me from the empty screen of the television. I spied it in the pile of tennis shoes by the door. It glowed in the lights on the Christmas tree and watched me in the eyes of a doll lying on the floor, I slipped off the couch and sorted gifts into two piles: China and non-China. The count came to China, 25, the world, 14. Christmas, I realized, had become a holiday made by the Chinese. Suddenly I wanted China out.

I persuaded my husband, and on Jan. 1 st, we started a-year-long household embargo on Chinese imports. The idea wasn’t to punish China. And we didn’t fool ourselves into thinking because we wanted to measure how far it had pushed in. We wanted to know what it would take in time, money, and worry to kick our China habit!

In the spring, our 4-year-old son started a campaign to support “China things”. “It’s too long without China,” he cried. He kept at me all day. I have discovered for myself that China doesn’t control every aspect of our daily lives, but if you take a close look at the underside of boxes in the toy department, I promise it will give you pause. “When we can buy China things again? Let’s never stop.” My son said.

After a year without China I can tell you this: You can still live without it, but it’s getting costlier by the day. And a decade from now I may not be brave enough to try it again.

1. The best title for the text could be _______.

A.China Free Living: A Trouble One

B.A Year without “Made in China”

C.Why I Choose “Made in China”

D.“Made in China”: Good or Bad

2. According to the passage, why did the author stop bringing in things “Made in China”?

A.Because she wanted to bring back job opportunities for her natives.

B.Because she has a strong sense of nationalism against “Made in China”.

C.Because she wanted to learn what life would be like without “Made in China”.

D.Because too much stuff made in China was take over her house.

3. The Underlined word “embargo” in the forth paragraph means ________.

A.reaction                              B.ban

C.restriction                             D.cancellation

4.The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is ________.

A.to tell the readers an interesting experience

B.to describe the trouble facing a housewife

C.to explain the importance of Chinese goods

D.to show the difficulty without Chinese goods

科目:高中英語 來源:2014屆四川省成都市六校協(xié)作體高二下學(xué)期期中考試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Growing up on a tobacco farm, Emma Avery was used to hard times. When she was seven, her family’s farmhouse burned to the ground. Her father made a temporary (臨時的) shelter, where eight people had to sleep in two beds. As soon as Emma and her four brothers and two sisters were big enough, they were out in the fields.

     Emma would find her comfort in school, even as a C student, thanks to one teacher. When she moved on to middle school, Emma was alarmingly far behind her classmates. She kept her head down, trying not to be noticed, struggling to catch up, and feeling like an outsider.

     Then one day, when Emma was 16, a teacher named Mr. Potts changed everything. Looking his students in the eye, Mr. Potts said, "Being a C student does not mean you do not have a valuable contribution to make. Some of you have to work in the fields in the evening and do not have time to study. But if you do your best, you have a gift to give."

     The teacher’s words made Emma believe she could do well, and she worked harder. In the end she won a scholarship to St. Paul’s College, graduated with a degree in elementary education in 1967, and got a job in the public-school system. Then, at George Washington University, she received a master’s in education in 1970, and afterwards in the same year she married Ron Smothers.

     Over the next six years, Emma taught in public schools in Miami. In 1976, after saving $10,000, she opened her first restaurant in Los Angeles. Eventually Emma stopped teaching, and her business expanded (擴展) to six restaurants.

     In gratitude (感激) for what she has been able to achieve, Emma donates a lot. She has no idea how much money she’s given away. She says, "Those I want to help are the C students who just need help, direction and confidence."

1.The first paragraph serves to show that Emma ______.

A.was poor and had no time to study          B.was born on a tobacco farm C.was sad to lose her house D.was kind enough to help support the family

2.From the text we learn that Emma ______.  

A.won a scholarship to George Washington University                 B.was unsuccessful as a businesswoman C.was thankful to Mr. Potts             D.disliked teaching, and gave up the job

3.From the second paragraph we can infer that Emma was ______.

A.unintelligent       B.unconfident        C.hard-working       D.Considerate

4.The text mainly wants to tell us ______.

A.confidence is the first step to success        B.memory of the past is the teacher of the future C.something attempted, something done       D.nothing is impossible to a willing heart
