英语阅读理解 ( 人物故事 ) 练习题含答案及解析

一、高中英语阅读理解人物故事类 1．阅读理解

Half a Day

I walked alongside my father, holding his right hand. All my clothes were new: the black shoes,

the green school uniform, and the red cap. They did not make me happy, however, as this was

the day I was to be thrown into school for the first time.

"Why school?" I asked my father. "What have I done?" "I'm not punishing you," he said, laughing. "School's not a punishment. It's a place that makes

useful men out of boys. Don't you want to be useful like your brothers?"

I was not convinced. I did not believe there was really any good to be had in tearing me away

from my home and throwing me into the huge, high-walled building.

When we arrived at the gate we could see the courtyard, vast and full of boys and girls. "Go in by you," said my father, "and join them. Put a smile on your face and be a good example to

others."

I hesitated and squeezed his hand firmly, but he gently pushed me from him. "Be a man",

he said. "Today you truly begin life. You will find me waiting for you when it's time to leave."

I took a few steps. Then the faces of the boys and girls came into view. I did not know a single

one of them, and none of them knew me. I felt I was a stranger who had lost his way. But then some

boys began to glance at me in curiosity, and one of them came over and asked, "Who brought

you?"

"My father," I whispered. "My father's dead," he said simply.

I did not know what to say. The gate was now closed. Some of the children burst into tears. The

bell rang. A lady came along and said, "This is your new home. There are mothers and fathers

here, too. Everything that is enjoyable and beneficial is here. So dry your tears and face life

joyfully."

Well, it seemed that my misgivings had had no basis. From the first moments I made many

friends. I had never imagined school would have this rich variety of experiences.

Unbelievable Stories of Animals Acting Just Like Humans

Horses are picky eaters

Horses have an even better sense of smell than humans do. When horses raise their noses and

open their nostrils ( 鼻孔 ) , their nervous system allows them to sense smells we can't sense. This

might explain why they refuse dirty water and carefully move around meadows, eating only the

tastiest grasses, experts say.

Whale says thanks

In 2011, a whale expert spotted a humpback whale trapped in a fishing net and spent an hour

freeing it. Afterward, in an hour-long display of thanks, the whale swam near their boat and leaped

into the air about 40 times.
