2014~2015年衡水高三上期中阅读AMy father had always been an alert observer of human character. Within seconds of meeting someone, he could sum up their strengths and weaknesses. It was always a challenge to see if any of my boyfriends could pass Dad’s test. None did. Dad was always right---they didn’t pass my test eithe r. After Dad died, I wondered how I’d figure it out on my own.That’s when Jack arrived on the scene. He was different from any other guy I’d dated. He could sit for hours on the piano bench with my mother, discussing some composers. My brother Rick loudly announced that Jack wasn’t a turkey like the other guys I’d brought home. Jack passed my family’s test. But what about Dad’s?Then came my mother’s birthday. The day he was supposed to drive, I got a call. “Don’t worry,” he said, “but I’ve been in an accident. I’m fine, but I need you to pick me up.”When I got there, we rushed to a flower shop for something for Mom. “How about gardenias?”Jack said, pointing at a beautiful white corsage(胸花). The florist put the corsage in a box.The entire ride, Jack was unusually quiet. “Are you all right?” I asked. “I’ve been doing a lot of thinking,” he said. “I might be moving.” Moving? Then he added, “Moving in with you.” I nearly put the car on the sidewalk. “What?” I asked. “I think we should get married,” he said. He told me he’d planned his proposal in a fancy restaurant, but after the accident, he decided to do it right away. “Yes,” I whispered. We both sat dumbfounded, tears running down our cheeks. I’d never known such a tender moment. If only Dad were here to give his final approval.“Oh, let’s just go inside.” Jack laughed. My mother opened the door. “Happy Birthday!” we shouted. Jack handed the box to her. She opened it up. Suddenly, her eyes were filled with tears. “Mom, what’s wrong?” I asked. “I’m sorry,” she said, wiping her eyes. “This is only the second gardenia corsage I’ve ever received. I was given one years ago, long before you kids were born.” “From who?” I asked. “Your father,” Mom said. “He gave me one right before we were engaged.” My eyes locked on Jack’s as I blinked a way(眨掉) tears. Dad’s test? I knew Jack had passed. 21:According to the text, we know the writer’s father was __________.A．interested in observing things aroundB．good at judging one’s characterC．strict with her boyfriendD．fond of challenges22:What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?A．Jack got the family’s approval except Dad’s.B．Jack was different from any other boy.C．Jack was getting on well with Mother.D．Jack knew a lot about piano.23:The underlined word “proposal”in Paragraph 5 means __________.A．piece of advice B．wedding ceremonyC．celebration of birthday D．offer of marriage24:On hearing “moving in with you”, the writer felt .A．pleased B．worried C．surprised D．disappointedBWASHINGTON—Laura Straub is a very worried woman. Her job is to find families for French teenagers who expect to live with American families in the summer.It’s not easy, even desperate.“We have many children left to place: 40 out of 75,” said Straub, who works for a Paris-based foreign exchange programme called LEC. When exchange programmes started 50 years ago, family life was more accommodating. For one thing, more mothers stayed home.But now, increasing numbers of women work outside the home. Exchange-student programmes have struggled in recent years to sign up host families for the 30,000 teenagers who annually come from abroad to spend their academic year in the United States, as well as the thousands more who participate in summer programmes.School systems in many parts of the US, unhappy about accepting non-taxpaying students, have also strictly limited the number of exchange students they accept. At the same time, the idea of hosting foreign students is becoming less exotic.In searching for host families, who usually receive no pay, exchange programmes are increasingly broadening their appeals to include everyone who has the ability to do it.“We are open to many different types of families,” said Vickie Weiner, eastern regional director for ASSE, a 25- year-old programme that sends about 30,000 teenagers on academic year exchange programmes worldwide.“For elderly people, exchange students keep us young; they really do!” said Jean Foster, who is hosting 16-year-old Nina Porst from Denmark.25. Vickie Weiner is the person who ________.A. works for a programme called LECB. works for a programme called ASSEC.is 25 years oldD. hosts foreign students26.According to the text, why was it easier for Laura Straub to find American families for foreign students?A．American school systems were better than now.B．The government was happy because it could gain tax.C．Foreign students paid hosting families a lot of money.D．More mothers didn’t work outside and could look after children.27.To deal with the problem in recent years, exchange programmes have to ______. A．extend the range of host familiesB．limit the number of the exchange studentsC．borrow much money to pay for the costsD．make hosting foreign students more exotic28.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A Exchange Students Keep Old People Young.B. Idea of Hosting Students is Different.C. Foreign-exchange Program Is Going on.D U.S. Struggle to Find host Families.CLast year, A Bite of China, made by CCTVs Documentary Channel, sparked discussion not only on Chinese food ,but also on locally made documentary programs.When you think of documentaries, you may think of them as long, boring programs. Butdocumentaries can be wonderful and bring stories from the real world into our homes. With fascinating footage（影片片段）and stories, documentaries encourage us to think about interesting issues we wouldn’t necessarily know about.So, what makes a good documentary, and what should we pay attention to when we watch one? Here, we offer a few easy strategies to help you get the most out of watching documentaries. Pay attention to the themesWhile watching a documentary, keep your eyes and ears peeled for the themes people talk about and what ideas they focus on. Is it meant to be informative or raise a certain emotional response?Think criticallyListen to what the people in the documentary are saying and ask yourself the following questions: If you were debating with someone or introducing a new concept, would you say the things the people in the documentary are saying? Do the arguments make sense?Check the sourcesIf you’re sitting at the computer and can’t think of anything to do, why not look up the points the documentary made and see if they are accurate? You could even read more about what is presented in the documentary.Who are the creators?The creators or financial backers of a film will usually be involved with how the subject matter is presented. Fo r instance, as the documentary 2016: Obama’s America was directed in large part by a conservative writer, it’s not surprising that it’s critical of President Obama from the beginning.29. The passage is mainly written to ______.A. inform us of factors of good documentaries.B. help us enjoy documentaries better.C. introduce ways of making documentaries.D. help us figure out themes of documentaries.30. Why is 2016: Obama’s America mentioned in the article?A. Because the author dislikes Obama.B. Because it is directed by a writer.C. Because it is quite popular in China.D. Because it is a persuasive example.31. According to the passage, ______.A. it is always difficult to get the themes of documentaries.B. financial backers often appear in documentaries.C. it’s better to think twice about what is in documentaries.D. many points of documentaries are not accurate.DWhen it comes to success in business and success in life, there are few qualities as important as confidence.People naturally have different levels of confidence. Some have a higher level of confidence than others do, but even those whose confidence is lacking can learn to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals. Increasing self-confidence is one of the mostcommon reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals.One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace. We all know how difficult it can be, for instance, to ask the boss for a raise. This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities. After all, if you are unsure about your own abilities, how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do?Even if you are not asking for that big raise, having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success. If you are certain of your abilities, chances are that those around you, whether they are your coworkers, your colleagues or your superiors, will see that confidence, and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do.Being thought of as the person to go to, and being seen as an expert in your chosen field, is naturally very important to success on the job. If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice, you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing. After all, if you are a recognized expert at the office, you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team.Having a high level of confidence, after all, does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve. Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence.32.What is the passage mainly about?A．The influence of confidence on one’s life.B．The importance of confidence to success.C．The difference of people’s confidence.D．The judgment on one’s confidence.33.Psychologists and other professionals can offer help to those _____.A．who think their goals are hard to reachB．who expect to give guidance to othersC．who want to ask the boss for a raiseD．who dream to be recognized experts34.What does the underlined word “indispensable”in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A．important B．attractive C．outspoken D．energetic35.What message does the author want to express in the last paragraph?A．To overlook one’s disadvantages.B．To make full use of one’s advantages.C．To have great confidence in one’s abilities.D．To make objective evaluations of one’s abilities.七选五What Teenagers Can Do To Earn More RespectAs teenagers continue to grow and develop into young adults, the transition(过渡) into adulthood has begun. With so many physical and emotional changes going on, certain manners are often forgotten and other adult traits are not yet accepted as a way of life. 36 By doing the following things, you will earn more respect.1.Contribute to the householdAt the very least, clean up after yourself. As a teenager, you are old enough to clean up afteryourself. When you make a mess, clean it up. 37 All chores that you do help to reduce the load of the person who did them before. Now that you’re old enough and capable, why shouldn’t you contribute to the household? 382.Be responsible39Whether they are basic things, like brushing your teeth or doing your homework , or more involved chores that contribute to the household, simply fulfill your responsibilities on time. When adults know that they can rely on you, their trust and respect for you will increase.3. Solve more of your own problem without asking for helpInstead of taking the easy approach and asking for help, make an effort to solve your problems on yo ur own first. The “easy way ” is only easy for you, but it is an extra task for the person from whom you are seeking help. Seek help only after you have make an honest effort to solve your own problems. 40 When you become a good problem solver, you increase your valve to the community.A.The people doing the chores before will greatly appreciate the help.B.It will make your life more pleasant.C.Everyone has certain responsibilities.D.When speaking to a group, speak loud enough.E.This includes. But is not limited to , your dishes and your room.F.By being aware of these manners and traits, you can manage them sooner.G.Depending on the problem, 15 minutes of effort is usually a good guideline.完形Once many years ago, I pulled a family out of a burning car somewhere in Wyoming. Last week I 41 a telephone call from a woman who could not stop42 as she told me that one of my stories had saved herson from committing suicide(自杀).
