第一節(jié) 閱讀下列短文 ,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng) (A 、B 、C 和 D )中 ,選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。(共15小題,每小題2分,滿(mǎn)分30分)

A.

A group of graduates, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.

Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite -- telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.

Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups. And then you began eyeing each other's cups. Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of Life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us."

God brews the coffee, not the cups. Enjoy your coffee!

"The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything."

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly.

Leave the rest to God.

1.What did a group of graduates talk about when they visited their old professor?

A. How to make the most delicious coffee.

B. How to choose the coffee cup.

C. The complaints about stress in work and life.

D. How to free themselves from stress of work and life.

2.What is the function of the more expensive cup from the passage?

A. It makes the coffee taste better.

B. In some cases it hides what we drink.

C. It shows people’s wealth.

D. It shows people’s status.

3.The purpose of this writing is ____________.

A. about how to complain about stress in work and life

B. to enjoy the present life and get happiness from it

C. to enjoy the coffee with expensive cups

D. to prove the power of the God

4.What’s the best title of this passage?

Honey from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper - a little bird called a honey guide.

The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees' nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.

Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.

1.Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest?

A. It's small in size.

B. It's hidden in trees.

C. It's covered with wax.

D. It's hard to recognize.

2.The honey guide is special in the way .

A. it gets its food

B. it goes to church

C. it sings in the forest

D. it reaches into bees' nests

3.What can be the best title for the text?

A. Wild Bees

B. Wax and Honey

C. Beekeeping in Africa

D. Honey-Lover's Helper

Farmer John and Farmer Bob were neighbours.For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well.

Then their good relationship broke.It began with a small thing, then bitter words, and then weeks of silence.One morning Farmer John woke up to find a stream between the two farms.“It must be Bob,” John thought.

Then one day there was a knock on John’s door.He opened it to find a carpenter(木匠) standing at the doorway.

The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that pleases you.”

Farmer John helped the carpenter get the materials(材料) ready and then he was off for the day.

Then they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go.“No, wait! Stay a few days.I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said Farmer John.“I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”
