試題分析:本文介紹了作者的人生感悟。人就是這樣生活的,當(dāng)你以一種豁達(dá)、樂(lè)觀向上的心態(tài)去生活時(shí),你的未來(lái)就會(huì)陽(yáng)光燦爛,一片光明;反之,你在擔(dān)心,將思維囚于憂傷的牢籠里,你的未來(lái)就變得漆黑一片了。如果你讓后者的情形繼續(xù)下去的話,你將會(huì)付出沉重的代價(jià)。你還將會(huì)失去為更好的明天奮斗的信心和勇氣。無(wú)論你是否意識(shí)到,無(wú)論你喜歡不喜歡,無(wú)論你是否注意了或是忽視了,花兒照樣盡情地開,美好的日子也一天天得流逝,你該高興地度過(guò)每一天還是痛苦地挨過(guò)每一日,可全取決于你自己了。

If you want to keep healthy, you should have good habits. What is a habit? It is something we do very often. We don’t even think when we do it. It has become a part of our lives.
“Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” This is an old English saying. Do you know what it means? It means that we must go to bed early at night and get up early in the morning. If we do, we shall be healthy, rich and clever.
Is this true? Perhaps it is. We know the body must have enough sleep. Boys and girls need eight or nine hours’ sleep every day.
Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is a very bad habit. Then you will not think or do your work well. Of course, you can’t be healthy, wealthy or wise.
When we get up early in the morning, we can go out and do morning exercises. Exercise means doing things with the body. Walking, running jumping, swimming, and playing ball games are all exercise. If we don’t exercise, our body will become weak.
Exercise helps the blood (血液) to move around inside our body. Blood takes food to all parts of our body.

Work is a part of living —my grandparents understood that. They lived and worked on a farm that has been in my family for 150 years. They raised chickens for eggs , pigs and cattle for meat . Cows were kept for milk and the cream, from which Grandma made butter and cheese. What little yard they had became a garden.
The Depression, therefore, didn’t make much change in their lives. But it did bring an unending flow of men out of work, drifting from job to job, to the farm. The first to show up at the door of the kitchen was a man in rags. He took off his hat and quietly explained that he hadn’t eaten for a while. Grandpa stood watching him a bit , then said , “There’s a stack of firewood against the fence behind the barn (谷倉(cāng)). I’ve been needing to get it moved to the other side of the fence . You have just about enough time to finish the job before lunch .”
Grandma said a surprising thing happened. The man got a shine in his eyes and he hurried to the barn at once. She set another place at the table and made an apple pie. During lunch, the stranger didn’t say much, but when he left, his shoulders had straightened. “Nothing ruins a man like losing his self-respect,” Grandpa later told me.
Soon after, another man showed up asking for a meal. This one was dressed in a suit and carried a small old suitcase. Grandpa came out when he heard voices. He looked at the man and then offered a handshake.” There is a stack of firewood along the fence down behind the barn I’ve been meaning to get it moved. It’d sure be a help to me . And we’d be pleased to have you stay for lunch.” The fellow set his suitcase aside and neatly laid his coat on top. Then he set off to work.
Grandma says she doesn’t remember how many strangers they shared a meal with during those Depression days-or how many times that stack of wood got moved.
【小題1】When he was asked to move a stack of firewood, the first man who asked for a meal got a shine in his eyes for he was glad that         .

A.he had found a good job
B.he would have something to eat
C.he would no longer suffer from the Depression
D.he would get what he wanted without losing his self-respect
【小題2】The writer’s grandfather asked those jobless men to move the stack of firewood because     .
A.he didn’t want them to have a meal free of charge
B.he had been needing to get it moved
C.he wanted to help them in his own way
D.he wanted to show them his kindness and respect
【小題3】The writer’s grandfather was all of the following but         .
A.kind B.thoughtful C.wealthy D.sympathetic
【小題4】The best title for the story would be         .
A.The DepressionB.The Pleasure of Helping Others
C.No Pains, No Gains D.Work-A Part of Living

Some people live in the world for body while others for dignity(尊嚴(yán)).
I once took a walk along the street   16 a Saturday dusk, with a Pepsi can in my hand. An old woman in ragged clothes,   17 was living on collecting used cans, jars and tins, moved slowly towards me, with a bag on the back!   18 (walk) nearer, she looked up at me and then fixed her eyes on my can. At that time, I hadn’t finished my cola, so I gave   19  several coins instead.
She stared at me for a few seconds   20  handed back the money. Quite confused, I asked: “Why not? Isn’t that   21 you want?”
“I am not a beggar,” she said   22  (serious), word by word.
Instantly, I felt so sorry. I had intended   23  (help) her, completely misunderstanding her. Thus I hurt her. What I could do at that moment was only to drink up the cola and handed her   24  emptied can. This time, she gave me a smile with   25  (satisfy) and gratitude in her eyes. The woman is poor in material life but is so respectable as a man. I am not only moved but also have learned a good lesson.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2013-2014學(xué)年陜西省西安市五校高三第一次模擬考試英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Dear Dad,
Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father’s Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.
You’ll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father’s Day together. I haven’t always been with you on Father’s Day but I’ve always been with you in my heart.
You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.
The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear ( 檔位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the '54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who sent me home, after you reported the Chevy stolen, didn't have much tolerance for a stub­born 16 year old, while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.
Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.
But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.
I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's wishing that never had to end.
I love you, Dad.
Love,
Jenny
1.How did Jenny probably feel on the night she was sent home by the police?

ADisappointed. ????????????? BNervous. ????????????? CGuilty.????????????? DFrightened.

2.We can learn from the passage that Jenny and her father_________.

Akept in touch by writing each other

Bare separated due to the generation gap

Chave been getting along very well

Dhad a hard time understanding each other

3.Why did Jenny feel strange when she saw her father last week?.

AShe seldom saw him driving that huge car.

BShe had never realized his being old and weak.

CShe didn't expect to meet with him there.

DShe had never seen him driving so slowly before.

4.Jenny wrote his father this letter to _________

Atell him about their conflicts????????????? Bsay sorry for her being stubborn

Cexpress her gratitude to him????????????? Dremind him of the early incident
