It has taken 90 years since she was born in a poor house in County Limerick for a woman considered America’s oldest illegal immigrant to get her Irish passport.It will be a few more months before Josephine Stout will finally be declared a US citizen, entitling(賦于…權(quán)力) her to a pension and other benefits.

         Despite having lived in America for most of her life since she arrived in 1923, the great-grandmother was declared an undocumented alien(華僑)in 1999, when she tried to claim state aid to help raise her seven grandchildren, who were left orphaned when her daughter was killed by a robber over$20.

         Even though she has never considered herself Irish, noting “I don’t even have an accent,” she didn’t officially exist as an American when officials in Chicago insisted that she prove her citizenship in order to qualify for benefits. But she had no birth certificate or passport when she arrived on an immigrant ship from Ireland from Ireland with her parents, who had 12 other children.

         She never gave the matter much thought until 1999, when she was in her late 70s and needed assistance to raise her grandchildren. For 12 years, Mrs. Stout managed to support the family by doing various jobs. But her life was hard and marked by tragedy. Her husband died in 1996, and her son Thomas died in a car accident with his girlfriend in 1985. Her only surviving child, Rosemary, died of cancer in 2009.

        A Catholic charity referred her case to Chicago Irish Immigrant Support(CIIS), which alerted the Irish Consulate(領(lǐng)事館). Through them, they tracked down her birth certificate, the website irishcentral.com reported. The document, in turn, allowed her to receive her Irish passport, and eventually her American green card in September 2011, which was dated back to November 1, 1923.

1.What will happen to a person if he has no green card in the US?

A. he cannot get any chance to get education

B. he can’t have a pension and other benefits

C. his citizenship will be taken away

D. he has to take illegal part-time job

2.Josephine couldn’t be a legal immigrant because ______.

A. she was named an undocumented alien

B. she arrived in American in a secret way

C. She couldn’t find her proper certificates

D. She has too many brothers and sisters

3.We can imply from the 4th paragraph that ______.

A. Josephine lived a lonely life for many years

B. Thomas was always driving carelessly

C. Josephine was a strong-willed woman

D. Mrs. Stout, Josephine’s friend, helped her a lot.

4.Please arrange the following events in the correct order according to the text.

a. Josephine’s birth certificate was found.

b. Josephine received her green card.

c. The Catholic charity contacted CIIS.

d. The birth certificate was shown on a website.

e. Josephine was offered her Irish passport.

A. a-b-c-d-e      B. c-d-e-a-b      C. a-d-c-b-e       D. c-a-d-e-b

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2010年福建省八縣（市高一下學(xué)期期末聯(lián)考英語(yǔ)卷 題型：閱讀理解

Learning Chinese has been like climbing a steep(陡峭的)mountain.

My mother was born in Tokyo,while my father moved from Shanghai to Hong Kong when he was seven years old. At home we speak English. I know some basic Chinese customs :to use chosticks gracefully (得體地)and what to say on Spring Festival to get a red envelope. But I never truly learned to speak Chinese.

Why should I need to learn the language ,anyway? I live in America where everyone speaks English.

I realized I was wrong in ninth grade when I arrived at Philips Academy,a famous boarding school in Massachusetts.The school encourages a global outlook(視野). There I decided to welcome the opportunity to learn Chinese. I met other American-born Chinese and together we spoke Ching-lish outside of the classroom.

I searched for ways to access Chinese culture through dramas such as Meteor Garden (《流星花園》)and music by singers such as S.H.E,Wilbur Pan and Jasmine Leung（梁靜茹）. Listening to Chinese music is where I found my favorite singer in the whole world:Jay Chou. Even if I cannot understand what he is crooning（哼唱）, I do feel more Chinese whenever I listen to his music.

Last summer I spent five weeks in China,four of which were taking a language course at a Beijing high school. I was proud when I could understand the dialogue in Intitial D（《頭文字D》） and when I could easily translate Fairy Tale sung by Kong Leung（光良）.

Learning Chinese has been a rocky trek（艱苦跋涉）, and I know it will continue to be that way before I arrive at a relative plateau（高地） of fluency（流利）.I hope that one day I will be able to work and maybe even live in China as a true Chinese.

1.The author wrote the text mainly to___.

A.share her experience of learning Chinese

B.tell us why she is interested in learning Chinese

C.show off(炫耀) the progress she made in learning Chinese

D.give advice on how to learn Chinese

2.The author's attitude to learning Chinese changed because___.

A.she found Chinese was interesting to learn

B.she wanted to take a course to pass easily

C.she realized she should have an open mind to the outside world

D. she made friends with some American___born Chinese at the school she studied

3.The author tried all of the following to learn Chinese EXCEPT___.

A.listening to Chinese music

B.practicing speaking Chinese with her parents

C.enjoying Chinese dramas

D.taking a Chinese course in China

4.We can learn from the text that___.

A.S.H.E.is the author's favorite singer[來(lái)源:Zxxk.Com]

B.dialogues in Meteor Garden are easy to guess

C.the author enjoys learning Chinese though it is difficult

D.the author can speak fluent Chinese now

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2010年高考試題（浙江卷）解析版 題型：閱讀理解

 

Below is a housing guide for students going to London. 

University accommodation (住所) offices

Many university accommodation offices have their own list of registered landlords (房東). Others also provide information on accommodation agencies and other housing organization. The advantage of using your university accommodation is that you can get support if you have a problem. The disadvantage is that they are unlikely to have enough registered landlords to houses all their students.

 

Property papers: Loot and Renting

Loot is an important source (來(lái)源) of information about private housing for co-renters. The offers are from private landlords, agencies and individuals looking for other co-renters. They also have a website: www.loot.com. The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains. The disadvantage is that there is no quality control over the offers.

Renting is another useful paper. The offers in this paper are mainly from accommodation agencies. Their website is at www. renting.co.uk.

 

Accommodation agencies

The majority of rented accommodation in London is probably advertised through accommodation agencies. The advantage of using accommodation agencies is that you will have access to a large number of accommodations. A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the right accommodation. The disadvantage is that they will make a range of charges to potential renters.

 

Noticeboards

     Around the universities you will find a number of noticeboards where offers of accommodation will be posted. These will either be from landlords or from students. Some universities will also have online noticeboards where students can advertise to other students. Advertisements from students can be an excellent way to find accommodation. However, advertisements from landlords can be problematic. 

 

Word of mouth

     Some of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth. It might be that you can find out about good offers from final year students. However, don’t suppose that just because you have found out about housing from a friend it is necessarily going to be better than that found through any other source.

 

Family

    Faced with the very high rents charged in London, some students and their parents will consider buying as an alternative. In some cases this might be a good choice.

   B. It gives you personal information about other co-renters.

   C. Their website is designed mainly for students.

   D. There are some good bargains.

2.A good agent can help you ____.

   A. know more people                 

B. find cheap accommodation

   C. get the right accommodation quickly

D. get free information about most accommodations

3.The information passed on by word of mouth is important because____.

   A. it is better than that found through any other source

   B. it helps you find some of the best housing never advertised

   C. the final year students always offer better information
