【題目】Mark Twain was a famous American writer. He wrote many stories and many of them were very funny. These stories are still read by many people all over the world. Besides writing, he also liked hunting and fishing very much, so one year he went to Maine(緬因州)for a holiday and spent three very pleasant weeks in the woods there.
When he had to go back home, he went to the station with his baggage. There he asked a porter(搬運工)to put it into the train. Then he got into the smoking car and sat down in one of the comfortable seats there. The car was empty when he got in, but a few minutes later, another man got in and sat down on the seat opposite his. Mark Twain looked at the man and thought that this man looked quite unpleasant. However, it would be impolite to say nothing in that situation, so he said good morning to the man, and they began to talk.
First they talked about the heavy snow and then they talked about Maine. The stranger said,"We have some beautiful woods in Maine. It would be a pity to come to Maine without spending some time there. I suppose you have been in our woods, haven't you?" "Yes, I have,"answered Mark Twain. "I've just spent three weeks there and I had a very good time, too. And let me tell you something. Although fishing isn't allowed in Maine during this season, I've got two hundred pounds of beautiful fish with my baggage in this train. I like to eat fish, so I packed it in ice to take it home with me. May I ask who you are, sir?"
The stranger looked at Mark Twain for several seconds and then answered,"I'm a police officer. My job is to catch people who hunt and fish during the wrong seasons. And who are you?"
Mark Twain was surprised and frightened when he heard this. He thought quickly and then answered,"Well, I'll tell you, sir. I'm the man who tells the biggest lies in America. "

【題目】Oseola McCarty spent more than 75 years washing and ironing other people’s clothes. As a laundrywoman, she was paid only a few dollars each time. Certainly nobody would consider her rich, so they were all amazed when Miss McCarty decided to donate $ 150,000 to the University of Southern Mississippi.
The money was in fact her life savings. She could save such a large amount of money because she lived a very simple life. She never learned to drive, and when she wanted to go somewhere, she just walked. She never flew to anywhere till the donation,and in 50 years she had been out of the South only once. The house in which she lived was also a rather modest one her last uncle left her. Only after she became known in America did she begin to travel all over the country. Since then, she had been the subject of many interviews and articles and was even invited to the White House.
Her donation was for students who clearly needed financial help. She herself left school in the sixth grade and had never married or had children. She said to the reporters that the idea of helping somebody’s child go to college gave her much pleasure.
[寫作內(nèi)容]
用約120個詞就Miss McCarty的捐助談談你的想法,內(nèi)容包括:
(1)你如何看待她的捐助行為;
(2)你認為她的捐助對受惠學生有哪些影響;
(3)如果你自己要捐助,你會選擇哪個群體并陳述理由。
[寫作要求]
1. 作文中可以使用親身經(jīng)歷或虛構的故事,也可以參照閱讀材料的內(nèi)容,但不得直接引用原文的句子。
2. 作文中不得出現(xiàn)真實姓名和學校名稱。

【題目】Humans may not have landed on Mars (火星) just yet, but that isn’t stopping a European company from devising a plan to send four people to the Red Planet within the next few years. This project, called Mars One, aims to send a small group of people to Mars in 2022 and eventually establish a permanent colony on the planet.
“Everything we need to go to Mars exists,” said Mars One co-founder Bas Lansdorp in March 2014. “We have the rockets to send people to Mars, the equipment to land on Mars, the robots to prepare the settlement for humans. For a one-way mission, all the technology exists.” Yet the four astronauts chosen for the trip will be stuck on Mars—forever. And despite Mars One’s thorough planning, there are a number of challenges that may prevent the mission from ever taking place. The biggest road block could be the mission's huge cost ($6 billion). However, Lansdorp is confident that Mars One will be able to fund the project by selling the broadcast rights for the mission and subsequent experiences living on the planet.
Those broadcast rights will also play a part in helping to select the people who will be sent to Mars. Lansdorp said the company will hold a selection process similar to a reality show. Lansdorp is expecting at least 1 million applications from people around the world. In addition to the cost, several other potential problems could inhibit (阻止) the mission to Mars.
“It’s even more challenging to send people there with life support, with food, with air, with all the other things like books, entertainment, means of communication and of providing for their own resources for a long stay on Mars,” said Adam Baker, senior lecturer in space engineering at Kingston University in London. “The size of the rockets you’d need to do this would be absolutely colossal.”
【1】According to Project Mars One, humans could send four people to Mars within the next ________years.
A.seven B.eight C.ten D.six
【2】According to Bas Lansdorp, which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A.Robots are prepared for the settlement for humans.
B.He could not come up with the fund for Mars One.
C.We humans have the rockets to send people to Mars.
D.The equipment is ready for humans to land on Mars.
【3】The word “colossal” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ___________.
A.very large B.very small
C.medium D.a(chǎn)verage
【4】Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?
A.Ready for a Round Trip to Mars
B.Ready for a Short Visit to Mars
C.Ready for a One-way Trip to Mars
D.Ready for a Walk on Mars
