Little did I know that I was about to see something I would never forget at the Kentucky Association of School Administrators.

They introduced the young musician---Mr Patrick Henry Hughes. He was rolled onto the stage in his wheelchair and began to play the piano. His fingers danced across the keys as he made beautiful music.

About ten minutes into Patrick’s performance, someone came on the stage and said, “I’d like to share a seven-minute video about Patrick Hughes.” Then the lights were turned down.

Patrick Henry Hughes was born with no eyes and a tightening of the joints(關(guān)節(jié)), which left him disabled for life. However, he was fitted with artificial eyes and placed in a wheelchair. Before his first birthday, he discovered the piano. His mom said, “I could hit any note on the piano, and within one or two tries, he’d get it.” By his second birthday, he was playing records people asked for. His father was ecstatic. “We might not play baseball, but we can play music together.”

Today, Patrick is a junior. His father attends classes with him and he’s made nearly all A’s. He’s also a part of a 214-member marching band(游樂樂隊). He’s a blind, wheelchair-bound trumpet player; he and his father do it together. In order to attend Patrick’s classes and every band practice, his father works the night shift(夜班) at United Parcel Service. Patrick says, “My dad’s my hero.”

On stage, between songs, Patrick talked to the audience about his life and about how blessed he was, “God made me blind and unable to walk. BIG DEAL! He gave me musical gifts and the great opportunity to meet new people.”

When his performance was over, the crowd rose to their feet and cheered for over five minutes.

1.The underlined word “ecstatic” could be replaced by “_________”.

A. relaxed    B. disappointed    C. anxious    D. delighted

2.What do we know about Patrick’s father?

A. He taught Patrick to play the piano.

B. He does part-time jobs in the daytime.

C. He accompanies Patrick in class and practice.

D. He expects Patrick to become a famous musician.

3.We know from the text that Patrick Henry Hughes ______________.

A. began to play the piano at age two

B. is in charge of a marching band

C. is now a high school student

D. admires his father greatly.

4.The story of Patrick Henry Hughes mainly teaches us to _______________.

科目:高中英語 來源:2015屆福建省高一第二次月考英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

My elder brother Steve, in the absence of my father who died when I was six, gave me important lessons in values(價值觀念) that helped me grow into an adult.

Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who asked me what happened. When I explained that my baseball had soared through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to admit to her. Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window from my pocket money if she would return my ball.

I also learned from Steve that personal property(財產(chǎn)) is a sacred(神圣的) thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else in spite of the fact that it had little value. He reminded me of how much I’d hate to lose to someone else the small dog my father made with a piece of cheap wood. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. David, and still remembered the smell of her perfume (香水) as she patted me on the shoulder.

Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most unforgetful in my mind. When I was twelve I killed an old brown sparrow(麻雀)in the yard with a BB gun. Excited, I screamed at Steve to come and take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is when it hurts you first, and then you think a long, long time.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A.The relationship between Mark and Steve.

B.The important lessons Mark learned in school.

C.Steve’s important role in Mark’s growth stage.

D.Mark and Steve’s respect for living things.

2.When Mark admitted his mistakes to Mrs. Holt, he ____.

A.was surprised                          B.felt frightened

C.was light-hearted                       D.cried before her

3.From the third paragraph, we can know that Mark _____.

A.had a shiny silver pen                    B.respected his teacher

C.hated his father very much                D.once owned a small wooden dog

4.To Mark, which is the most important lesson Steve taught him?

A.Respecting life.                         B.Being responsible for one’s behavior.

C.Being honest.                          D.Respecting others’ property

When I first told people I was going to work in Cameroon, the most common reaction was: “Why?” The second was: “It’s in Africa; you’ll die!” The third: “Where is that?”
So let me give some answers. I was offered a job that looked interesting in a part of the world I’d never been to before. I’d also long had an interest in Africa, so I decided it was time to find out the reality.
A small amount of research showed that in more than 40 years since gaining independence, Cameroon has been a peaceful country with no wars. Not only are there no wars, but Cameroon is a food exporter to the region.
Now, after three years, I can say that these have been the healthiest years of my life! No malaria or any of the other frightening diseases you read about when Africa is mentioned. The worst thing that ever happened to me was a bout of food poisoning — once.
So what is it like to teach here? Well surprisingly not so different from teaching anywhere else.
Most students come to us with a bit of English in their heads. Cameroon is a bilingual country with French and English as official languages, while there are also close to 200 local ethnic languages in a country of 16 million people. French is the dominant language, spoken by about 80% of the population.
The local school system is very traditional and somewhat strict. Perhaps not surprisingly when there can be up to 150 students in the classroom (of which maybe 30 have the books, and there are probably seats for 70).
Like anywhere else, students appreciate it if you know a bit about their country, and not just Roger Milla (the top scorer of the 1990 World Cup, in case you’re wondering). It helps if you know the names of the ten provinces, know who the first president was, or can say a word in a local language.
So in conclusion: Cameroon isn’t just football. Not is it war, poverty and disease. It’s just life and people, like anywhere else

      Food export may lead to many frightening diseases

閱讀理解。
     Nineteen-year-old Christopher Paolini has always loved adventure books. In fact, he plotted out his
first book, Eragon, when he was just fifteen!Eragon is selling more copies than most of the Harry Potter
books. A reporter from Who's News talked to this young author about his books and how he ended up
being one of the best-selling authors of all time!
     Reporter : ________                                                                  
     Christopher Paolini (CP): I love fantasy. I love the sense of awe (敬畏) and wonder that you always
get at the end of a great book . Eragon was an attempt to express that. When I was about twelve, I read
a book called Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher. It's about a young boy who went into a mysterious
shop and bought a dragon egg that ends up hatching. It stuck in my head. Eragon was an attempt to see
what I could do with the idea myself.
     Reporter : Where else do you get your idea?
     CP: I'm definitely influenced by authors who have a fairly inventive use of language, imaginative worlds and a sense of wonder-authors who write about things that other people don't.
Reporter : What was the hardest thing about writing Eragon?
     CP: Probably the editing (編輯) because I wasn't used to it. It was a kind of shock doing it. But also
I had to learn a huge amount about grammar and commas and other things I'd never paid much attention
to before. I'd say that editing and writing are pretty much equal in difficulty. My raw writing is a lot more
professional now than it ever was before because of everything I learned through the editing process.
     Reporter : How do you avoid becoming frustrated with the writing process?
     CP: Write about what you enjoy the most or what touches you the most; otherwise you'll never be
able to survive a book-length project.
     Reporter : Anything else you'd like to share with our readers?
     CP: Before I wrote Eragon, I spent an entire month plotting out the entire story so I wasn't writing
blindly. That helps. I really poured my heart and soul into it. It's not just an adventure story: it is about
Eragon trying to work out who we are, why we are here and how we can live honorably.
1. The reporter's first question is most likely to be " ________".
A. What's the most interesting thing about Eragon?
B. How long did it take you to write Eragon?
C. How has your writing improved after Eragon?
D. What inspired you to write Eragon?
2. What does the underlined word "that" refer to in the third paragraph?
A. A story.    
B. The sense of awe and wonder.
C. An idea.        
D. A great book or movie.
3. What does Paolini find as difficult as writing?
A. Plotting out the story.    
B. Grammar and commas.
C. The editing process.      
D. The creative use of language.
4. Which of the following BEST indicates Paolini devoted himself completely to writing Eragon?
A. "Write about what you enjoy the most or what touches you the most."
B. "Eragon was an attempt to see what I could do with the idea myself."
C. "I spent an entire month plotting out the entire story."
D. "I really poured my heart and soul into it."
