11.It was a cold March day in High Point,North Carolina.The girls on the Wesleyan Academy softball team were waiting for their next turns at bat during practice,stamping their feet to stay warm,Eighth-grader Taylor Bisbee shivered(發(fā)抖) a little as she watched her  teammate Paris White play.The two didn't know each other well-Taylor had just moved to town a month or so before.
      Suddenly,Paris fell to the ground,"Paris's eye rolled back,"Taylor says."She started shaking.I knew it was an emergency."
      It certainly was,Paris had suffered a sudden heart failure.Without immediate medical care,Paris would die.At first,no one moved.The girls were in shock.Then the softball coach shouted out,"Does anyone know CPR?"
      CPR is a life-saving technique.To do CPR,you press on the sick person's chest so that blood moves through the body and takes oxygen to organs.Without oxygen,the brain is damaged quickly.
     Amazingly,Taylor had just taken a CPR course the day before.Still,she hesitated.She didn't think she knew it well enough.But when no one else came forward,Taylor ran to Paris and began doing CPR,"It was scary.I knew it was the difference between life and death,"says Taylor.
     Taylor's swift action helped her teammates calm down.One girl called 911.Two more ran to get the school nurse,who brought a defibrillator,an electronic devices(器械) that can shock the heart back into work.Luck stayed with them:Paris's heartbeat returned.
"I know I was really lucky,"Paris says now."Most people don't survive this.My team saved my life."
      Experts say Paris is right:For a sudden heart failure,the single best chance for survival is having someone nearby step in and do CPR quickly.
      Today,Paris is back on the softball team.Taylor will apply to college soon.She wants to be a nurse."I feel more confident in my actions now,"Taylor says."I know I can act under pressure in a scary situation."

56.What happened to Paris on a March day?B
A.She caught a bad cold.
B.She had a sudden heart problem.
C.She was knocked down by a ball.
D.She shivered terribly during practice
57.Why does Paris say she was lucky?C
A.She made a worthy friend.
B.She recovered from shock.
C.She received immediate CPR.
D.She came back on the softball team.

A.Enthusiastic and kind.
B.Courageous and calm.
C.Cooperative and generous.
D.Ambitious and professional.

58.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章Taylor's swift action helped her teammates calm down.One girl called 911.Two more ran to get the school nurse,who brought a defibrillator,an electronic devices(器械) that can shock the heart back into work可知泰勒勇敢而冷靜;故選B.

Dear Tom,

I’m more than happier that you’re interested in Chinese culture. Now let me tell you something about a Dragon Boat Festival.

It’s a traditional Chinese festival falling in the 5th day of the 5th month of the Chinese lunar calendar. It’s widely believed that the festival held in memory the great poet Qu Yuan,who lived in ancient times. Disappointed with the government,he drowned him in the Miluo River.

The festival is celebrated by boat racing, with the boats building in the shape of dragons. Competing teams row their boats forward to the drumbeat, race to reach the finishing end first. We also have the custom of eating zongzi, wrapped with bamboo leaf. It’s very popularly among Chinese people.

If you will want to know about other Chinese traditional festivals, just write to me.

Yours,

Li Hua

科目:高中英語 來源:2017屆甘肅省天水市高三下學期第三次診斷考試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

I have a friend who lives by a three-word philosophy: Seize the moment. Just possibly, she may be the wisest woman on this planet. Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven't thought about it. Don't have it on their schedule, and didn't know it was coming or they are too strict to depart from their routine.

I can't count the times I called my sister and said, “How about going to lunch in half an hour?” She would gasp and stammer(結(jié)結(jié)巴巴地說), “I can't. I have clothes on the line. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known it yesterday, I had a late breakfast, and it looks like rain.” And my personal favorite response: “It's just Monday.” She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together. From then on, I've tried to be a little more flexible.

Life has a way of going faster as we get older. The days get shorter, and the list of promises made to ourselves gets longer. One morning, we are awaken, and all have to show for our lives is repetition of “I'm going to”, “I plan on” and “Someday, when things are settled down a bit.”

When anyone calls my “seize the moment” friend, she is open to adventure and available for trips. She keeps an open mind on new mind on new ideas. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. You talk with her for a while, and you're ready to change your attitude to life.

My lips have not touched ice cream in 10 years. I love ice cream. The other day, I stopped the car and bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home, I would have died happy. Now go on and have a nice day. Do something you WANT to, not something on your SHOULD DO list.

1.The example of the writer's sister serves as ________.

A. an argument B. an introduction

C. a support D. a conclusion

2.The writer thinks that the underlined excuse “It's just Monday.” is acceptable, because ________.

A. it is still likely that they can have lunch together some time later

B. it sounds most reasonable of all the excuses

C. it shows respect for the writer's suggestion

D. it indicates the time when they can have lunch together

3.The underlined word “contagious” in the fourth paragraph means “________”.

A. accurate B. influential

C. hopeful D. necessary

4.What is the purpose of the writer by writing this passage?

A. To suggest how time flies.

B. To persuade busy people to relax.

C. To advise people to keep their promise.

D. To convince readers to be flexible on their schedule for practical joy.
