Tick, tock, tick, tock. I’m sitting here, watching the movements of my existence pass slowly away. My house has been  36 for such a long time，and I’m lonely and forgotten. Sitting here, by myself, all that I can do is   37   and think about my past. I could tell you stories that only  38  would know. But walls can’t speak.
I came to this place many years ago，along with an old man….  39  , he was with me for on1y three short years before he passed on….
For a time, I was left alone, while people came and  40  the house….  Then, one day a nice couple moved in with a young son.   41 , their son Danny liked to stay with me, and I was completely  42  with him. He always looked as if he loved the stories I told, most of which began with. ‘‘Back in my day…” and ‘‘When I was  43  .…” I sometimes had the kind of idea that he didn’t really understand what I was saying, but it felt good to be  44 .  When Danny went off to college，my heart broke. Soon afterward,   45  sold the house.…
New owners came and  46 . Then, One day it so happened that I was in when a new family was moving into the house. You can’t even imagine my  47  when, unexpectedly, Danny walked through the front door. He had a  48  and kids now. I was so overjoyed when I saw him that I put all my  49  into my daily activities. ... I spent the next twenty years watching his kids grow up, with a mixture of pride and  50  about what would happen next.
The kids finally became  51   and Danny sold the house. That was about five years ago…. Some of the local kids have started the rumor that the house is haunted（鬧鬼的）--- and, in a way, it is. It is haunted by   52 of all the people who have lived in it. Every second has  53  me so much. I have been   54 them all day and they are almost up for me.... I hope that someday somebody will  55  me, and drop in on me again. Maybe then I’ll get a new home and an opportunity for a whole new set of memories.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

   Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do; once or twice she had looked into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, “and what is the use of the book,” thought Alice, “without pictures and conversations?”
So she was considering in her own mind whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain(雛菊花環(huán)) would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a white rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.
There was nothing so very remarkable in that; but when the rabbit actually took a watch out of its waistcoat-pocket, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit- hole under the bush.
The rabbit-hole went straight on like a tunnel for some way, and then dipped suddenly down, so suddenly that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself before she found herself falling down a very deep well.
Down, down, down. Would the fall never come to an end? “I wonder how many miles I’ve fallen by this time?” she said aloud. “I must be getting somewhere near the centre of the earth. Let me see: that would be four thousand miles down, I think. I wonder if I shall fall right through the earth! How funny it’ll seem to come out among the people that walk with their heads downward! The Antipathies, I think—but I shall have to ask them what the name of the country is, you know. ‘Please, Ma’am, is this New Zealand or Australia?’ And what an ignorant little girl she’ll think me for asking! No, it’ll never do to ask.”
Down, down, down. There was nothing else to do, when suddenly, thump! thump! Down she came upon a heap of sticks and dry leaves, and the fall was over.
小題1:What kind of books do you think will interest Alice most?
A．Books that her sister was reading.
B．Books without pictures or conversations.
C．Books about white rabbits.
D．Books with pictures and conversations.
小題2:Which of the following is true?
A．Alice suddenly saw a white rabbit with a strange umbrella.
B．Alice managed to fall right through the earth.
C．Alice ran after the white rabbit across the field out of curiosity.
D．The people on the opposite side of the earth walk with their heads downward.
小題3:Which is the right order of the story?
a. Alice jumped into a large hole.
b. A white rabbit ran close by her.
c. Alice sat by her sister, doing nothing.
d. She fell upon some sticks and dry leaves.
A．c-b-a-dB．d-a-c-bC．a(chǎn)-b -c-dD．d-c-a -b
小題4: From the passage, we can see Alice is a(n)________girl.
A．helpful and friendlyB．curious and imaginative
C．brave and curiousD．ignorant and pretty
小題5: The following paragraph “In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again.” can be put between_________.
A．Paragraphs 1 and 2B．Paragraphs 2 and 3
C．Paragraphs 3 and 4D．Paragraph 4 and 5

On the last day of class we 47 our books and headed out. The professor stepped directly in front of me, with obvious 48, putting out his hand. He said, “49 you for making my class so interesting,” shaking my hand and smiling. I was so 50. To me, it had been a pleasant way to 51 the time in his lesson. I had no idea that my 52 had any effect on him or the others at all.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Smart job-seekers need to rid themselves of several standard myths about interviewing before they start looking for a job. What follows is a list of some of these untruths and some tips to help you do your best at your next interview.
Myth 1: The aim of interviewing is to obtain (means “get”) a job offer.
Only half true. The real aim of an interview is to obtain the job you want. That often means rejecting job offers you don’t want! So before you please an employer, be sure you want the job.
Myth 2: Always please the interviewer
Not true. Try to please yourself. Of course, don’t be hostile—nobody wants to hire someone disagreeable. But there is plainly a muddle ground between being too ingratiating（逢迎）and being hostile.
Myth 3: Try to control the interview
Nobody “controls” an interview. When someone tries to control us, we resent（憎恨）it. When we try to control others, they resent us. Remember you can’t control what an employer thinks of you, just as he can’t control what you think of him. So he is ready to give and take when being interviewed; never control the interview.
Myth 4: Never interrupt the interviewer
Study the style of the effective conversationalists: they interrupt and are interrupted! An exciting conversation always makes us feel free—free to interrupt, to disagree, to agree enthusiastically. Just hang loose. Try being yourself for a change. Employers will either like or dislike you, but at least you’ll have made an impression. Leaving an employer indifferent（冷漠的）is the worst impression you can make.
小題1:To be your natural self in a job interview will__________.
A．make your interviewer angryB．please your interviewer
C．leave an impression on the interviewerD．leave the interviewer indifferent to you
小題2:     For job seekers, efforts to control the interview are likely to __________.
A．a(chǎn)ffect the interviewer’s opinion of them
B．lead to the offer of a job
C．enable them to express themselves fully
D．help to create a favorable image of themselves
小題3:The most important thing to keep in mind when being interviewed for a job is to _________.
A．try to obtain the jobB．reject the job first
C．qualify yourself for the jobD．see if it is a job you want
小題4:The right attitude to a job interviewer is to be _________.
A．obedientB．hostileC．pleasingD．a(chǎn)greeable
小題5:     “hang loose” in last paragraph means to _________.
A．stay calm and relaxedB．become weak and passive
C．take chargeD．sit back comfortably

For many people, the name Baskin-Robbins is linked to sweet memories of eating ice cream．Irvine Robbins, who helped create this famous company, died in May at the age of ninety．His life's work of making fun and exciting ice cream flavors changed the way Americans enjoy this food．
Irvine Robbins opened his first ice cream store in 1945 in California．At the time, there were no stores that sold only ice cream．His sister's husband, Burton Baskin, also opened his own ice cream stores．

I remember growing up, my mom always said, “Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others.” It is so true. Friends and mates allow us to enjoy our success and our joys, comfort us in our challenging moments, and provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves. I’ve always looked at friends as the family we choose. They enrich our lives. As Robert Louis Steven once said, “A friend is a present which you give yourself.”
To be a good friend or partner, it’s importable be a good listener. Hear what your friend or mate has to say first rather than jumping to conclusions or getting defensive. Sometimes it is useful to be their mirror, for when they hear their words repeated back to them; it can help them to realize that what they said was not exactly what they meant to say.
Patience, compassion and empathy are also important traits in being a good friend or partner. You know the old golden rule, “Care for others the way you would like them to care for you.” The support of a friend during a tough time could make the difference between success and failure. Encouragement and confidence are priceless gifts that can help change a person’s life.
Take care, though, with whom you choose to have close relationship, for they can have a tremendous impact on your self-esteem and life path. As someone once told me, “the attitude of your friends is like the buttons on an elevator. They will either take you up or down.”
小題1:In order to make good friends, you should do the following except ______.
A．Be a good listenerB．Be patient, compassionate
C．Be carefulD．Be generous to your friends
小題2:What will you do to your friends according to the passage?
A．Buy your friend a mirror.B．Point out their mistakes if there is any
C．Give them encouragement and confidence.D．Pay attention what they do
小題3:What does the underlined sentence in the passage mean?
A．It is different whether you have friends or not.
B．The support of friends counts when you have difficulties.
C．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
D．You are certain to succeed if you get the support of friends.
小題4:Which of the following statements is not right according to the passage?
A．It is good to share your fun with other.
B．The friend is a mirror for us to learn more about others.
C．You’d better be a good listener if you want to be a good friend.
D．Be careful to choose your friend.
