We planned our first meeting at the Grand Central Station in New York.At seven, I was in the station and waited for the girl whose heart I loved but whose face I’d never seen.Suddenly a girl in a green suit was coming toward me. I stood up from the bench and started toward her, completely forgetting to notice that she was not wearing a rose.“Going my way, sailor?” t he girl murmured, walking away quickly. I made one step closer to her and then I saw Miss Maynell, who was well past 40, standing almost directly behind her with a red rose. I felt something even better than love. I didn’t hesitate and walked to her. “I’m John Blanchard, and you must be Miss Maynell,” I said, feeling shocked by the bitterness of disappointment. “I’m glad you could meet me. May I take you to dinner?”The woman smiled. “I don’t know what this is about, son,” she answered. “But the young lady in the green suit begged me to wear this rose.

To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one ano ther. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to friends. They tell your friends what is important to you. By sharing then you help your friend know you better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with problems. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand.

新课标2016年高一英语寒假作业9第1卷第二局部阅读理解〔共两节，总分为60分〕第一节〔共15小题；每一小题3分，总分为45分〕阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C、和D〕中，选出最优选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

ACharles Chaplin, who died in 1977, is considered one of the greatest and funniest actors in the history of the cinema. During his lifetime, he acted in 13 films, and he wrote, directed and acted in 69 other films.Chaplin was born in London in 1889.When a poor boy, he was often seen waiting outside the London theatres, hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, and above all, he knew how to make people laugh. But he couldn't get work and therefore wandered about the city streets. Sometimes he was sent away to a home for children who had not parents.Charlie Chaplin first acted when he was five. He broke into show business because his mother, a music-hall performer, lost her voice during the performance and had to leave the stage, and Charlie went on and sang a well-known song. Halfway through the song a shower of money poured onto the stage. Charlie stopped singing and told audiences he would pick the money first and then finish the song. The audiences laughed. This was the first of millions of laughs in Charlie Chaplin's fabulous career〔神话般的生涯〕.Twenty years later the same Chaplin became the greatest and best loved comedian in the world. His dream came true in the end. Chaplin became world-famous and almost a king in the world of the film.Even people who don't understand English can enjoy Chaplin's films because they are mostly silent. The equipment for adding sound to films had not yet been developed. The development of films with sound became a problem for Chaplin, as he was uncertain about making films with dialogues. Instead, he continued to make films without dialogue, but he added music, which he wrote himself. It isn't what he says that makes us laugh. His comedy doesn't depend on words. It depends on little actions which mean the same thing to people the world over.Chaplin's later films, however, were not well received. Chaplin lived most of his life in America and the last years in Switzerland, where he was buried at Christmas 1977, at the age of eighty-eight. There was sadness all over the world at the news of his death.In his book, Chaplin tells us how to succeed in life. He says, “You have to believe in yourself. That's the secret.〞72. Chaplin is regarded as king of comedy mainly because _______.A. he acted out the common human situations best in his comedyB. he could sing and dance wellC. he knew how to make people laughD. lots of people have seen his films73. What makes people laugh in Chaplin's films?A. It isn't his words but his actionsB. Neither his words nor actionsC. Either his words or his actionsD. Not only his words but also his actions74. The only secret of Charles Chaplin's huge success is that _______.A. he can make all people, men and women, old and young laughB. he has full trust in himselfC. he is always active and hard-working all his lifeD. though he is always in trouble, he never loses heart75. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. He was too shy to meet the managers of the theatres.B. People won't stop laughing until tears run down Chaplin's face.C. People all over the world can enjoy Chaplin's films without translation because most of them are silent.D. He wouldn't like to work at the theatre.BTreasure hunts (寻宝) have excited people’s imagination for hundreds of years both in real life and in books such a Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. Kit Williams, a modern writer, had the idea of combining the real excitement of a treasure hunt with clues (线索) found in a book when he wrote a children’s story, Masquerade, in 1979. The book was about a hare, and a month before it came out Williams buried a gold hare in a park in Bedfordshire. The book contained a large number of clues to help readers find the hare, but Williams put in a lot of “red herrings〞, or false clues, to mislead them.Ken Roberts, the man who found the hare, had been looking for it for nearly two years. Although he had been searching in the wrong area most of the time, he found it by logic (逻辑), not by luck. His success came from the fact that he gained an important clue at the start. He had realized that the words:“One of Six to Eight〞under the first picture in the book connected the hare in some way with Katherine of Aragon, the first of Henry VIII’s six wives. Even here, however, Williams had succeeded in misleading him. Ken knew that Katherine of Aragon had died at Kimbolton in Cambridgeshire in 1536 and thought that Williams had buried the hare there. He had been digging there for over a year before a new idea occurred to him. He found out that Kit Williams had spend his childhood near Ampthill, in Bedfordshire, and thought that he must have buried the hare in a place he knew well, but he still could not see the connection with Katherine of Aragon, until one day he came across two stone crosses in Ampthill Park and learnt that they had been built in her honor in 1773.Even then his search had not come to an end. It was only after he had spent several nights digging around the cross that he decided to write to Kit Williams to find out if he was wasting his time there. Williams encouraged him to continue, and on February 24th 1982, he found the treasure. It was worth ￡3000 in the beginning, but the excitement it had caused since its burial made it much more valuable.64. What is the most important clue in the story to help Ken Roberts find the hare?A. Two stone crosses in Ampthill.B. Stevenson’s Treasure Island.C. Katherine of Aragon.D. Williams’ hometown.65. The stone crosses in Ampthill were built _______.A. to tell about what happened in 1773B. to show respect for Henry VIII’s first wifeC. to serve as a roadsign in AmpthillParkD. to inform people where the gold hare was66. Which of the following describes Roberts’ logic in searching for the hare?a. Henry VIII’s six wivesb. Katherine’s burial place at Kimboltonc. Williams’ childhood in Ampthilld. Katherine of Aragone. stone crosses in AmpthillParkA. a-b-c-e-dB. d-b-c-e-aC. a-d-b-c-eD. b-a-e-c-d67. What is the subject discussed in the text?A. An exciting historical event.B. A modern treasure hunt.C. The attraction of Masquerade.D. The importance of logical thinking.CLiu Xiang Will Resume (恢复) TrainingAthens Olympic 110m hurdle champion Liu Xiang felt so relieved to return to racetrack after getting out of the great number of social activities.Liu arrived in hometown Shanghai Wednesday night and was about to resume training shortly after.“I am so exhausted(疲惫的)from so many social activities, which made me even more tired than training,〞 said the 21-year-old Liu, who wrote a new chapter in China’s Olympic history by winning the country’s first ever athletics short-distance running title in the men’s 110m hurdles (栏)in Athens in August.“I am happy that I will resume my training soon back in Shanghai,〞 said the Shanghai native. He turned into an instant national hero with the Olympic glory〔荣誉，光荣〕and one of the most popular Olympic gold medalists, taking part in scores of celebration activities since he returned to China early September.“My regular training has been interrupted for such a long time that I think I can only run at about 13.5 seconds now,〞 said Liu, who clocked a world record-tying time of 12.91 to clinch the title.“I would rather forget what I have achieved in the past and try my best to realize a higher goal,〞 he said.Liu already missed the Berlin Golden League Series on Sunday and won’t be able to catch the IAAF Grand Prix final slated for September 18-19 inMonaco.He plans on attending an IAAF all-star tournament in Japan at the end of this month.65.

Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded by cliffs〔悬崖〕. If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to walk past our camp.Several days later, the scoutmaster had to be away for a day. That afternoon, we had supper early. We were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards the river. We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking very stupid, no one said anything.We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, we collected our plates together so that we could take them to the river where we always washed them. But no one moved towards the river—we stood looking at each other ashamed. Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us. We agreed how strange he looked and we wondered what he could be doing by the river. We knew that he could only return by passing through our camp.An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested we should creep〔悄悄移动〕down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing.

AOnce upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the sea to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work．One day he was walking along the shore．As he looked down at the beach，he saw a human figure moving like a dancer．He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach．So he began to walk faster to catch up．As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing，but instead he was reaching down to the shore，picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean．As he got closer, he called out，“Good morning! What are you doing?〞 The young man paused，looked up and replied，“Throwing starfishes(海星)in the ocean．〞“I guess I should have asked，why are you throwing starfishes in the ocean?〞“The sun is up and the tide is going out，And if I don’t throw them in，they’ll die．〞“But, you ng man，don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfishes allalong it．You can’t possibly make a difference!〞The young man listened politely．Then he bent down，picked another starfish and threw it into the sea，and said，“It made a difference to that one．〞There is something very special in each and every one of us．We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference．And if we can know that gift，we will gain through the strength of our vision the power to shape the future．We must each find our starfish．And if we throw our starfish wisely and well，the world will be better．56．One day, the wise man saw a young man ．A．dancing along the beach with starfishesB．walking with a dancerC．picking up starfishes for saleD．trying to save as many starfishes as possible57．The underlined words“something very special〞refers to ． A．the gifts fromfriends B．t he strength of making decisionsC．our ownstarfishD．the ability to make a difference58．From the last two paragraphs，we can learn thatA．the wise man realized something new and importantB．the wise man thought it was foolish of the young man to throw starfishes in the ocean．C．the young man had the ability to save only one starfishD．it is necessary for us to save starfish on the beach59．The writer told this story to show us ．A．how and where we can write a good articleB．everyone can do something for the futureC．wise men ore sometimes stupidD．young men are in fact wiser than old peopleBChess ClubThe Chess Club is open to anyone interested in chess, including the novice, the expert, or anyone in between!

并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．ABEIJING—With a series of measures being adopted to control price rise, the Chinese government is confident of keeping prices at a reasonable level, Premier Wen Jiabao said Sunday morning, asking people to remain confident.“I believe we can keep prices at a reasonable level through our efforts. Asa major leader of the government, I have the responsibility and I have the confidence,too.” He made the remarks while answering a listener’s question during a radio broadcast by China National Radio.Steps taken in the past month, including price controls to curb speculation(抑制投机) and monetary tightening（货币紧缩）, had started to produce results, he said. The government plans to build 10 million units of affordable housing in 2011, up from this year’s target of 5.8 million.China will also increase efforts to curb speculation in the housing market, mainly through monetary policies and stricter use of land, Wen said, without giving details.Wen said the country had a good agricultural supply base which gave the government confidence that it could stabilize prices.In a bid to control inflation, the government has also increased the bank reserve requirement ratio six times and lifted interest rate twice this year, he added.Further, authorities have introduced many measures including cutting fees for transportation of agriculture products and controlling food price rise strictly. The overall price level, especially of major consumer goods, has now begun to drop, Wen said.“The fundamental way to stabilize pri ces is to achieve a balance of supply and demand, which requ ires continuous development of agriculture,” said premier, adding that the central government has worked out measures to increase agricultural production.1. Premier Wen Jiabao asked people to remain confident because ______.A. many measures have been taken to control priceB. as a major leader of the government, he had the confidenceC. he wanted to comfort themD. China will increase efforts to control price2. The key to keeping prices at a reasonable level lies in ______.A. taking more strict measuresB. the leaders’ confidenceC. achieve a balance of supply and demandD. having a good agricultural supply base3. The best title of the passage should be ______.A. More efforts on controlling price riseB. Chinese government is confident of controlling price riseC. Major consumer goods’ price droppedD. The bank lifted interest rate.BIn ancient Japan, if you saved someone’s life, they would make it their duty to spend the rest of their life serving you. Nowadays, if you rescue someone’s story, he or she will feel the same kind of gratitude (感激).It happens all the time. Someone in a group is telling a story and, just before their big point, BOOM! There’s an interruption. Someone new joins the group, a waiter with a plate of biscuits comes over, or a baby starts crying. Suddenly everyone’s attention turns to the new arrival, the food on the plate, or the “charming” little child. Nobody is aware of the interruption — except the speaker. They forget all about the fact that the speaker hasn’t made his or her point.Or you’re all sitting around the living room and someone is telling a joke. Suddenly, just before their big punch line (妙语), little Johnny drops a dish or the phone rings. After the crash, everyone talks about little Johnny’s carelessness. After the call, the subject turns to the upcoming marriage or medical operation of the caller. Nobody remembers the great punch line got unfinished — except the joke teller. When it’s you entertaining everyone at a restaurant, have you ever noticed how you can almost set your clock by the waiter coming to take everyone’s order just before your funny punch line?Most joke and story tellers are too shy to say, after the interruption, “Now, as I was saying …” Instead, they’ll spend the rest of the evening feeling bad they didn’t get to finish. Here’s where you come in. Rescue them with the technique I call “Lend a Helping Tongue.”Watch the gratitude in the storyteller’s eyes as he stabilizes where his story sunk and he sails off again toward the center of attention. His expression and the appreciation of your consideration by the rest of the group are often reward enough. You are even more fortunate if you can rescue the story of someone who can hire you, promote you, buy from you, or otherwise lift your life. Big winners have excellent memories. When you do them subtle favors like Lend a Helping Tongue, they find a way to pay you back.1. Very often, a storyteller cannot make his point because _________.A. people are more interested in food than his storyB. many guests bring their babies to the partyC. he is interrupted by something unexpectedD. his story is easily forgotten by the listeners2. From Paragraph 3, we know that when someone is telling a joke, _________.A. something bad will surely happen just before their punch lineB. listeners’ attention is often drawn to something elseC. the only person really interested in the joke is the joke tellerD. the waiter knows when to take everyone’s order3. How can we help the joke and story tellers when they are interrupted?A. By giving them a chance to finish.B. By comforting them to make them happy.C. By going on telling the story for them.D. By teaching them some useful techniques.4. What is the text mainly about?A. People should learn how to take turns in a conversation.B. We can win someone’s heart by getting him back to his story.C. Telling jokes will make you the center of attention.D. It is impolite to cut in on someone’s talk.CGeena David knew she wanted to be a movie star when she was very young. She was not sure what gave her the idea, but she wanted t o look like a movie star. “I have a lot of pictures from my childhood of me wearing sunglasses,” she says. “I used to wear them to watch TV.”Early movie actors started wearing sunglasses not because they looked good, but because their eyes hurt. The lights used on movie sets were extremely bright and could cause a painful problem known as “Klieg eyes”. It was named after the Klieg brothers who invented the lights. Actors wore sunglasses to give their eyes a rest. But when movie stars began wearing their sunglasses in public, they quickly became a must.Eventually actors started wearing sunglasses in their movies as well as on the street. Audrey Hephburn wore ultra-cool Ray-Ban sunglasses in the 1961 movie, Breakfast at Tiffany’s. As a result, Ray-Ban sunglasses started to appear more and more in the movies. In 1979, Ray-Ban “Wayfarers” were worn by Jake and Elwood in The Blue Brothers. Tom Cruise wore Ray-Ban “Aviator” su nglasses in the 1986 hit, Top Gun. Then in 1997, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones made Ray-Ban “Predator” sunglasses famous in Men in Black.Of course sunglasses aren’t just a fashion statement. The main reason to wear sunglasses is to protect our eyes against UV radiation. UV radiation can damage our eyes, so people now choose their sunglasses carefully. But you don’t have to give up style for safety. The choice of frames and lenses available these days is huge. So you can protect your eyes and still be the coolest person on the beach. 1．What is mainly discussed in this passage?A．Some movie stars. B．How to protect eyesC．The sunglasses wearing. D．How to be a movie star2．Why did Geena David like to wear sunglasses?A．She was a movie star.B．She wanted to follow a movie star.C．Wearing sunglasses was good for her eyes.D．It was good to wear sunglasses when watching TV.2．Early actors’ eyes hurt because ______.A．they wore sunglassesB．they went out in the sun too muchC．the lights on movie sets were too brightD．their scripts were written in very small writing4．We may know from this passage that ______.A．Audrey Hephburn was a famous film starB．Ray-Ban is the name of sunglasses makerC．Sunglasses made Top Gun the hit in 1986D．Men in Black must be an advertisement of sunglassesDFinding true happiness is a universal aspiration (渴望). We all want it, but can we all have it? Genuine happiness is written all over our faces when we are truly contented, and, likewise, a forced smile does nothing to hide underlying sadness.Believing that everyone can create their own lasting joy, Matthieu Richard has been declared the Happiest Man in the World. Richard earned his “happiest man” statusafter a series of laboratory tests in 2004. Richard has shared his thoughts on happiness with a world wide audience. As an experienced speaker, he has explained his insights into happiness to everyone, from students to corporate groups. Looking inwards to find joy rather than relying on outer conditions, he believes, is the way to achieve well-being.“It’s quite clear t hat the outer conditions are not enough. The way we interpret those outer conditions in our inner experience is what determines either a sense of well-being or misery. We love to go jogging for fitness and we do all kinds of things to remain beautiful, yet we spend surprisingly little time taking care of what matters most: the way our minds function. It’s the essential thing that determines the quality of our experience.” Besides this, Richard stresses that it is not what’s happening around us that makes us unhappy, but rather the way we choose to react to it.The pursuit of happiness is becoming a modern obsession（痴迷）. As life becomes more complex, our ability to process our reactions to various outside influences comes under strain. “Genuine happiness” he says, “doesn’t mean pleasant feelings one after the other. It’s more like a series of qualities that we can develop as skills —like openness, genuine love, compassion, inner strength and inner peace.”1. Richard has been declared the Happiest Man in the World _______.A. because he has shared his thoughts on happiness with a worldwide audienceB. after he has explained his insights into happiness to everyoneC. after a series of laboratory testsD. because he tries his best to achieve happiness and well-being2. According to Richard, what is the best way to achieve well-being?A. Interpreting those outer conditions in our inner experience.B. Looking inwards to find joy rather than relying on outer conditions.C. Spending little time taking care of what matters most.D. Reacting to various outside influences in the modern world.3. What determines the quality of our experience?A. The way our minds react to outer conditions.B. Insights into happiness that we hold.C. The constant pursuit of happiness in our life.D. Those outer conditions affecting our happiness.4. How can we pursuit happiness?A. Go jogging for happiness.B. Do everything to remain beautiful.C. Make sure that our minds are functioning normally.D.

AAlfred Carlton Gilbert（1884-1961） was a man of many ideas and talents. As a small boy, he kept trying new things. At age 12, he started a sports club for his friends and got their school to have a field day with active games and prizes. As he grew and practiced, Gilbert became skilled at pole vaulting（撑杆跳高）, pull-ups, the long jump and football.Gilbert broke the world record for pull-ups in 1900 and the distance record for running long dive in 1902. And he won a gold medal in the pole vault at the Olympic Games in 1908. By that time, he had nearly finished medical studies. Choosing not to make medicine his career, Gilbert co-founded Mysto Manufacturing, a manufacturer of magic sets, in 1907. Gilbert had amused his friends and earned college money by doing magic tricks, so he knew what was needed. One day, Gilbert saw workers using steel girders（钢梁） to build towers for power lines. That gave him the idea for the Erector Set, a popular construction toy.In 1917, the Council of National Defense thought no toys should be produced for Christmas because the country was fighting in World War I. Gilbert and other men from the Toy Manufacturers of America went to Washington, with about 40 different toys. They had 15 minutes to speak. This meeting was at the end of a long, hard day. Gilbert told the government men at the meeting how toys helped children learn. His helpers brought out the toys. Soon, the tired government men were on the floor, playing with building sets, models of navy ships, and other toys. The time limit was forgotten; so was the Christmas toy ban（禁令）.Gilbert spent the rest of his life improving erector sets. His company made andsold the sets, plus chemistry and other science sets and toy trains. He made items for homes, businesses, and the army. When he died in 1961, he had 150 patents （专利）for his many inventions. But his main joy was in helping children learn and have fun at the same time.67. What’s the right order of the events about Gilbert?a. He argued against a ban on toy production.b. He broke the world record for pull-ups.c. He set up a manufacturer of magic sets.d. He started a sports club for his friends.e. He won a gold medal in the pole vault.A. b, d, e, a, cB. b, a, e, d, cC. d, b, c, e, aD. d, c, e, b, a68. The story mentioned in paragraph 3 shows that _____.A. Gilbert’s toys interested not only children but adultsB. toys could help children learn about World War IC. toys were a danger to the Council of National DefenseD. Christmas toys were not popular during wartime69. According to the text, Gilbert was known as _____.A. a teacher, boy-maker and businessmanB. an athlete, inventor and businessmanC. an athlete, writer and businessmanD. a magician, writer and toy-maker70. What would be the best title for the text?A. An easy way into the sporting circle.B. The man who saved Christmas.C. Influenced of toys on childrenD. The amazing Mr. Gilbert.BAs a school teacher, Inderjit Khurana used to take the train to work. And one day, at the station, she saw dozens of children who spent their days begging from train passengers rather than going to school. She learned that it was not a rare problem and that millions of children in India lived on the streets.Realizing that these children would never be able to escape poor life and homelessness without education, and that it would be impossible to send these children to school, Inderjit decided to create a model program---taking the school to the most out- of-school children.Khurana’s train platform schools aim to provide a creative school form and give children the basic levels of education. Her last goals reach far beyond the 20 platform schools she and her colleagues have created in I ndia’s Bhubaneswar region. She is determined that her program will become a model for changing the lives of the poorest children throughout India and the world.Khurana founded the Ruchika Social Service Organization(RSSO) in 1985. The teachers gather the children together between the stops of the train for reading, writing, maths and history taught through songs and other teaching tools.Khurana recently comes to realize that the education of these children is impossible when the most basic needs of their families are not being met. So she also provides food and medicine for their families.Khurana insists that every child have the right to an education and that if a child cannot come to the school, then the school must come to him or her.1.

No pains , no gainsDDomestic (驯养的) horses now pull ploughs, race in the Kentucky Derby, and carry police. But early horses weren’t tame (驯服的) enough to perform these kinds of tasks. Scientists think the first interactions humans had with horses were far different from those today.Thousands of years ago, people killed the wild horses that lived around them for food. Over time, people began to catch the animals and raise them. This was the first step in domestication.As people began to tame and ride horses, they chose to keep those animals that had more desirable characteristics. For example, people may have chosen to keep horses that had a gentle personality so they could be ridden more easily. People who used horses to pull heavy loads would have chosen to keep stronger animals. Characteristics like strength are partly controlled by the animals’ genes. So as the domesticated horses reproduced, they passed the characteristics on to their young. Each new generation of houses would show more of these chosen characteristics.Modern day horse breeds come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. This variety didn’t exist in the horse population before domestication. The Shetland horse is one of the smallest breeds—typically reaching only one meter tall. With short, strong legs, the animals were bred to pull coal out of mine shafts (矿井) with low ceilings. Huge horses like the Clydesdale came on the scene around 1700. People bred these heavy, tall horses to pull large vehicles used for carrying heavy loads.The domestication of horses has had great effects on societies. For example, horse were important tools in the advancement of modern agriculture. Using them to pull ploughs and carry heavy loads allowed people to farm more efficiently. Before they were able to ride horses, humans had to cross land on foot. Riding horses allowed people to travel far greater distance in much less time. That encouraged populations living in different areas to interact with one another. The new from of rapid transportation helped cultures spread around the world59.
