| 阅读理解 Today, we complete our story about the influential English writer William Shakespeare. He wrote plays and poems during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, which remain very popular today. During earlier times, people would probably have learned several ancient Roman and Greek plays. It was not unusual for writers to produce more current versions of these works. For example, in Shakespeare's play "The Comedy of Errors" Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus. For his play "Macbeth", Shakespeare most likely used a work on Scottish history by Raphael Holinshed for information. Shakespeare might have borrowed from other writers, but the intensity(强度)of his imagination and language made the plays his own. While many plays by other writers of his time have been forgotten, Shakespeare and his art live on. Shakespeare was also influenced by the world around him. He described the sights and sounds of London in his plays. His works include observations about political struggles, the fear of diseases, and the popular language of the city's tradesmen. Shakespeare's knowledge of the English countryside is also clear. His works include descriptions of deep forests, local flowers, and the ancient popular traditions of rural people. It would be impossible to list all of the ways in which Shakespeare's works have influenced the world culture. But the first and greatest example would be his great influence on the English language. During his time, the English language was changing. Many new words from other languages were being added. Shakespeare used his sharp mind and poetic inventiveness to create hundreds of new words and rework old ones. For example, he created the noun forms of "critic", "mountaineer" and "eyeball". Many common expressions in English come from his plays, including "pomp and circumstance(装腔作势)"from "Othello", "full circle(绕圈子地)" from "King Lear", etc. The list of cultural creations influenced by Shakespeare is almost endless. From paintings to television to music and dance, Shakespeare was well represented. Shakespeare's plays have been translated into every major language in the world. Shakespeare became a wellknown writer during a golden age of theater. His years of hard work paid off. 1. What can we infer from the passage? A. Many of Shakespeare's works were influenced by earlier writings. B. Shakespeare was hardworking when he was a student. C. The experience of living in London helped a lot with Shakespeare's works. D. Shakespeare became rich later because of the popularity of his works. 2. Shakespeare might have learnt some information from ancient Roman works in . A. "King Lear" B. "The Comedy of Errors" C. "Macbeth" D. "Othello" 3. Why could Shakespeare's works survive his time? A. Because there were so few people writing plays in his time. B. Because he produced too many works that nobody else could do. C. Because he was a rich and influential person of his time. D. Because his works were rich in imagination and language. 4. Shakespeare's greatest influence should be on . A. the English language B. paintings C. television D. music and dance 5. The passage is mainly abo  ut .A. an introduction to Shakespeare's life and his works B. the main features and styles of Shakespeare's plays C. how culture influenced Shakespeare and he influenced culture. D. Shakespeare's greatest influence on the world culture. |
| 阅读理解 I found the imagination of becoming a grandmother somewhat discouraging. I was younger than I thought a grandmother should be when I got the news that I was going to become one myself. I admit, it was not a role that I was emotionally ready to accept. I had been a young mother, and had certainly hoped my daughter would not face that same challenge. I remarried when she was a teenager, and then had two more children. On getting the news that she was expecting, I remember thinking "What do I know about being a grandmother? -I haven't even finished raising my own kids yet!" I don't like to be  unprepared, so I read a few books about grandparenting. That gave me a littl e help, but I was still uncertain. I thought about other grandmothers I knew, and got a few ideas I liked and a few more that I didn't. But I couldn't quite figure out what kind of grandmother I wanted to be. Then I thought about my own grandmother, Granny, as she's known by most people, and I knew I had the answer. I didn't realize it until that moment, but my own grandmother was the example for the kind of grandmother I wanted to be. I am fortunate that I got to spend a lot of time with my grandparents when I was a little kid. Here's what I learned from my Granny: Grandmothers always have a cookie jar. For my entire life, Granny always had a cookie jar full of cookies. When I was a little tiny girl, just at eye level with the counter, Granny would get the cookie jar down for me. When I was a little older I learned how to pull the chair over so I could reach. As I got taller, if I really stretched, I could reach the cookie jar with my finger tips and move it close enough to get it down off the counter to find out what kind of treat was inside. Always the first thing I did when I went to Granny 's house was check the cookie jar and there were always cookies in it. Many years later, I'll drive my own children to Granny's house and the first thing Pd do is get us all a cookie. So grandmothers must have a cookie jar and on my granddaughte' s first Christmas, my daughter bought me my own cookie jar. She said when they came to see me, her daughter would find the treat the way she did and I did. 1. The writer thought it was a little discouraging to be a grandmother because________. A.she was not old enough to be one B.she was not emotionally ready to be one C.she though  t her daughter was too young to be a motherD.grandmother should be older than she was 2. The underlined phrase "that same challenge " in the first paragraph refers to" ________" A. taking care of a grandchild B. taking care of a baby C. being a young grandmother D. being a young mother 3. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that________. A.the writer has many happy memories of her grandmother's cookie jar B.the writer always wanted to know what was inside her grandmother's cookie jar C.the writer often drove her grandchildren to see her grandmother's cookie jar D.womenof the writer 's age all have a cookie jar for their grandchildren 4. What kind of grandmother did the writer want to be? A.One who has a jar filled with many kinds of cookies for children and herself. B.One who grows up with her grandmother's cookie jar with all kinds of cookies. C.One who is like her own grandmother with a cookie jar to treat her grandchildren. D.Onewho always makes different kinds of cookies to treat her grandchildren. 5. Which of the following can be the best title of this text? A.Grandmother's Cookie Jar B.Grandmother's Treat for Children C.Grandmothers and Grandchildren D. Happy Memories of Cookies |
| 阅读理解 Running like the wind, roaring like thunder, tigers have long been feared and respected as a king of the animal world. But last week a report said that there are no more than 30 wild tigers left in south China. This was the conclusion of a team of scientists from China's State Forestry Administration and the World Nature Fund. The South China tiger, also known as the Chinese tiger, is native to southern China. In the 1950's, there were over 4000 tigers found in mountain forests in the country. But due to the destruction of th  eir natural habitat and uncontrolled hunting, it has been pushed on to the list of the world's top ten most endangered species. Sixty-six of the big cats can be found in the cages of a dozen zoos around China. But they are nothing like their wild cousins. They have lost their natural skills such as hunting and killing. If they were set free they could not look after themselves. "Breeding has damaged the quality of the species", said Pei Enle, deputy director of the Shanghai Zoo. To reintroduce the species into the wild, the country started a programme to send five to ten young tigers to South Africa. Four of them have already arrived. Progress has been made as two elder tigers have recovered some of their instincts(本能)and can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base. " South Africans are very experienced in reintroducing big animals to the wild. The country has very good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in", said Lu Jun, office director of the National Wildlife Research and Development Center. " We tried in Fujian Province, but it was not successful as there was not a complete eco-chain(生物链) and there was a lack of space. " The tigers should return to China in 2007 when the reservations in Fujian are ready. 1. What is the main reason for the South China tiger becoming one of the world's top ten most endangered species? A. Because it has lost its natural instincts. B. Because there is not a complete eco-chain. C. Because there is no space for it. D. Because uncontrolled hunting has destroyed its natural living conditions. 2. How is the programme of sending several tigers to South Africa getting on? A. Its effect still remains to be seen. B. Two tigers can already compete with their wild cousins. C. Some of the tigers are already on the road to recovering their natural skills. D. The tigers should be able to recover their instincts completely by 2007. 3. By saying " but they are nothing like their wild cousins", the writer means that ______. A. they are no longer feared by other wild animals B. they don't know how to hunt or kill C. a complete change has resulted in the species because of breeding D. to reintroduce them into the wild has become an urgent task 4. What is the purpose of sending young tigers to South Africa? A. To help the tigers recover their ability to live in the wild. B. To provide them with a better environment. C. To get the tigers to go on a tour. D. To find a complete eco-chain for them. 5. Which one is not the reason for South Africa being chosen as the training place? A. Because the tigers can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base. B. Because South Africans are skilled at dealing with the tigers. C. Because there is a complete eco-chain and enough space there. D. Because the country has good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in. |
| 阅读表达 [1]When I was in primary school, I got into an argument with a boy in my class. I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson learned that day. [2]I was convinced that "I " was right and "he" was wrong  --and he was just as convinced that__________ and "he" was right. The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson. She brought us up to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. [3]In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked the boy what color the object was. "White,"he answered. [4]I couldn't believe he said the object was white, when it was obviously black! Another argument started between my classmate and me, this time about the color of the object. [5]The teacher told me to go to stand where the boy was standing and told him to come to stand where I had been. We changed places, and now she asked me what the color of the object was. I had to answer,"White." it was an object with two differently colored sides, and from his viewpoint it was white. Only from my side was it black.
