B. With an absent father and a withdrawn and depressed mother, 17 year-old Ree Dolly keeps her family together in a dirt poor rural area. She's taken backwards however when the local Sheriff（縣治安官） tells her that her father put up their house for his bail（保釋）and unless he shows up for his trial in a week's time, they will lose it all. She knows her father is involved in the local drug trade and manufactures crystal meth but anywhere she goes the message is the same: stay out of it and stop poking your nose in other people's business. She refuses to listen, even after her father's brother, Teardrop, tells her he's probably been killed. She pushes on, putting her own life in danger, for the sake of her family until the truth, or enough of it, is revealed.

C. Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb's rare ability has made him a coveted（妄想的） player in this deceitful new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption（贖）. One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the impossible-inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an idea but to plant one. But no amount of careful planning or expertise can prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every move...

D. Reflecting on her earlier life, she observes that for most of it she was either with a man or in the process of leaving one, and so in the first stages of her journey she experiments with singleness. Not with solitude, exactly, since Liz is naturally sociable and acquires friends easily. Back home in New York she has Delia, and in Rome a Swedish woman named Sofi introduces her to an amicable（心平氣和）group of Italians, including a fellow whose last name is Spaghetti. While he is seen mainly in group shots, his namesake food is filmed in loving close-ups. In keeping with the theme of self-examination, Liz’s trip is confined to countries that begin with the letter “I”. From the ruins of Italy, to an ashram in India, and then to Indonesia......

E. John Crowley is a worried businessman and father of two children stricken with Pompe disease, suffering of muscle deterioration（惡化）with an age expectancy of nine years. With critical birthdays looming on the horizon, Crowley decides to take a chance and pursue research scientist Robert Stonehill, a rebellious thinker in the field of Pompe with radical ideas on enzyme therapy. Promising money he doesn't necessarily have, Crowley talks Stonehill into a business venture, pushing the irascible（暴躁的） scientist into research while he worries about the cash flow. With the clock ticking, Stonehill presents challenging theories, irritating the interest of pharmaceutical giants, who demand results practically overnight. With Stonehill feeling the heat during this demoralizing process, Crowley fights to maintain the face of Pompe, to keep the cure from becoming just another compromised drug on the market.

F. Bob Ho, a Chinese spy who was loaned to the CIA and is now retiring so he can settle down and marry his girlfriend, Gillian, who lives next door and doesn't know he's a spy. She thinks he's a pen importer. Around her, Bob acts like a boring country man, wears eyeglasses, and hides his super-spy abilities. Gillian loves that he's normal and reliable, not like her ex-husband, who ran off and left her with three kids. So Gillian has to go out of town because her father's in the hospital, and Bob volunteers to babysit so he can bond with the children. Meanwhile, a Russian terrorist named Poldark has escaped CIA custody and is looking for a top-secret code that young Ian accidentally downloaded from Bob's computer, which means Poldark and his goons are going to show up any minute now and kill them all. Bob must save the children -- and the world!

Nearly 600,000 Americans lost their jobs this past month, pushing the nation’s unemployment rate (失業(yè)率) to 7.6 percent. But not all of those fired workers are sitting at home, reading the job advertisements and waiting for the phone to ring. Thousands of people are returning to school, making public colleges and universities among the few bright places in the disappointing US economy.

At a time when many Americans have had their work hours cut or have even lost their jobs, Sherian Huddleston is working overtime. She works at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) where she oversees (監(jiān)督) the enrollment (注冊(cè)) of new students. The university’s population grew by 800 students this term —an increase of 4 percent over last spring’s enrollment. Huddleston says seeing the enrollment rise in a failing economy is not unexpected. "When people are out of work," she points out, "they will ask 'What else can I do?’ or 'What other careers can I follow?’ They will often return to school if they have not completed a degree before."

Older returning students aren’t the only ones increasing the enrollment at MTSU. Huddleston says she’s also seeing an increase in student transfers (轉(zhuǎn)移). "Students who went out of state, or even within the state, to more expensive schools are transferring to public schools to make use of the lower cost of going to school here," she explains.

1.Which is the best title for the passage?

A．The Falling American Economy

B．College Enrollment up in a Down Economy

C．Colleges Have More Students Than Before

D．Going to College Is No Longer Difficult

2.According to the passage, many students return to school ______.

A．to make more money                    B．to read job advertisements

C．to complete a degree                    D．to ask their schoolmates for help

3.Many students are transferring to public schools mainly because ______.

A．public schools provide better education

B．public schools offer better jobs to their students

C．they don’t want to be influenced by the falling economy

D．the cost of public schools is lower and they can save money

4.Which of the following is TRUE about Sherian Huddleston?

A．She is working more hours than before because of the worsening economy.

B．She is a student of Middle Tennessee State University.

C．She disagrees with those who are returning to school.

D．She is surprised to see the enrollment go up.

American parents usually think that their child should not have more pocket money than the children with whom he regularly connects, even if they are wealthier．But neither are children expected to compare with the richer if a large family, heavy responsibilities, or other conditions make it necessary to give a child less spending money than is customary （慣例的）in the neighborhood．

Whatever the pocket money is, its entire use is not controlled by the parents, because a child learns to use money correctly only through dealing with it himself．If a seven-year-old child gets a quarter as a week pocket money and is made to put it all in his piggy bank to save it up, he gets no idea what the real use for the money is．He gets the shiny coins and they soon disappear．

The idea of a bank account is too early for so small a child, although he can be made to understand and enjoy saving his coins—not all of them, only a part of what he receives—to buy something he especially wants．By the time he is eight he is old enough to take part in the opening of his own savings account, parents may take him to the bank, open a savings account for him and encourage him to put a certain quantity or any checks he receives as gifts into the bank and watch his bank savings grow as entry by entry（存入） is made．

He will be saving, earning, and spending suitable quantities all along in order to learn how to manage money and to keep him in a favorable position with his friend．The boy who can't join his fellows in a sweet shop once in a while, because he has to save every cent he gets or earns for some big unknown project his parents have chosen for him, is a sorry child．

1.Choose the best exolaration for the underlined part in the second paragraph.

    A．It is a kind of bank run by children．

    B．It is a contralre in the shape of a pig for saving coins.

    C．It is a certain place in which pigs are raise．

    D．It is a bank whose building looks like a pig

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

    A．Most of the rich people in America give children much pocket money．

    B．American children usually have their bank accounts until they are eight．

    C．American parents seldom care for their children's spending money．

    D．American children begin to learn how to manage money when very young．

3.Suppose an 8-year-old child receives 10 dollars as his birthday gift, he may probably ____．

    A．spend the money on the things he wants

    B．compare the gift with that of his friend

    C．have most of it saved in the bank

    D．put all the money in his piggy bank

4.Why does the writer think the boy is a sorry one if he saves every cent he gets or earns?

    A．Because he can not manage his money and is kept himself in an unfavorable position

    B．Because he can not join the fellows in a sweet shop once in a while

    C．Because he can not learn the use of money through spending it himself

D．Because he can not have any other choice but save, earn of spend money

科目：高中英語 來源：2011年甘肅省高一下學(xué)期期末考試英語題 題型：閱讀理解

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this. Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that one’s memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.

If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is really his own fault. Not all of us can become very strong or very clever, but all of us can improve our memory by the same means —practice.

Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have a better memory than those who can? Why is this? Of course, because people who can’t read or write have to remember things: they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is exercised all the time.

So if you want a good memory, learn from those who cannot read or write: practice remembering.

1. According to the passage, few people know that _____.

A. arms or legs become weak if they are not used for some time

B. when they start using their arms or legs again, they slowly become strong again

C. a person’s memory becomes weak if he does not practice remembering things

D. it is their own fault if their arms or legs are weak

2.The author thinks that if a person has a poor memory, ____.

A. it is his own fault                   B. his parents are to blame

C. he is just unlucky                    D. his arms must be weak

3. According to the passage, we learn that all of us can ____.

A. become very strong                     B. become very clever

C. improve our memory by practicing       D. know how to improve our memory
