It was a Sunday and the heavy storm had lasted all night. The morning after the storm, though, was beautiful: blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently.
My father realized it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him. I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same. I’m so glad I did.
On the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape. After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps(脊背)in the distance.
On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldn’t believe it—there aren’t any whale along the coast here. The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive.
The little baby whale actually as big as our boat was obviously stuck and could not move. The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩渦)and waves. “She’s trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side,” my father said. At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently. With several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. Slowly, they let us lead them, sometimes rising from the water right beside us to breathe and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance.
In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half. That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day. Nearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.
【小題1】The author says “I’m so glad I did.”(in Para.2)because_______.

A．he witnessed the whole process of fishing
B．he enjoyed the beauty of the calm sea
C．he experienced the rescue of the whales
D．he spent the weekend with his family
【小題2】The harbour survived the storm owing to ______.
A．the shape of the harborB．the arms of one bay

【小題3】The mother whale failed to help her baby because _______.
A．she had stayed in the polluted water for too long
B．the whirlpools she had made were not big enough
C．she had no other whales around to turn for help
D．the waves pushed her baby in the wrong direction
【小題4】What is the theme of the story?

The technology is great. Without it we wouldn’t have been able to put a man on the moon, explore the ocean’s depths or eat microwave sausages. Computers have revolutionized our lives and they have the power to educate and pass on knowledge. But sometimes this power can create more problems than it solves.

Every doctor has had to try their best to calm down patients who’ve come into their surgery waving an Internet print-out, convinced that they have some rare incurable disease, say, throat cancer. The truth is usually far more ordinary, though: they don’t have throat cancer, and it’s just that their throats are swollen. Being a graduate of the Internet “school” of medicine does not guarantee accurate self-health-checks.

One day Mrs. Almond came to my hospital after feeling faint at work. While I took her blood sample and tried to find out what was wrong, she said calmly, “I know what’s wrong；I’ve got throat cancer. I know there’s nothing you doctors can do about it and I’ve just got to wait until the day comes.”

As a matter of routine I ordered a chest X-ray. I looked at it and the blood results an hour later. Something wasn’t right. “Did your local doctor do an X-ray?” I asked. “Oh, I haven’t been to the doctor for years,” she replied. “I read about it on a website and the symptoms fitted, so I knew that’s what I had.”

However, some of her symptoms, like the severe cough and weight loss, didn’t fit with it—but she’d just ignored this.

I looked at the X-ray again, and more tests confirmed it wasn’t the cancer but tuberculosis (肺結(jié)核)—something that most certainly did need treating, and could be deadly. She was lucky we caught it when we did.

Mrs. Almond went pale when I explained she would have to be on treatment for the next six months to ensure that she was fully recovered. It was certainly a lesson for her. “I’m so embarrassed,” she said, shaking her head, as I explained that all the people she had come into close contact with would have to be found out and tested. She listed up to about 20, and then I went to my office to type up my notes. Unexpectedly, the computer was not working, so I had to wait until someone from the IT department came to fix it. Typical. Maybe I should have a microwave sausage while I waited?

1.Mrs. Almond talked about her illness calmly because ______.

A．she thought she knew it well

B．she had purchased medicine online

C．she graduated from a medical school

D．she had been treated by local doctors

2.It was lucky for Mrs. Almond ______.

A．to have contacted many friends

B．to have recovered in a short time

C．to have her assumption confirmed

D．to have her disease identified in time

3.Mrs. Almond said “I’m so embarrassed” (Para. 7) because ______.

A．she had distrusted her close friends

B．she had caused unnecessary trouble

C．she had to refuse the doctor’s advice

D．she had to tell the truth to the doctor

4. By mentioning the breakdown of the computer, the author probably wants to prove ______.

A．it’s a must to take a break at work

B．it’s vital to believe in IT professionals

C．it’s unwise to simply rely on technology

D．it’s a danger to work long hours on computers

科目：高中英語 來源：2010-2011學(xué)年山東省聊城市高三上學(xué)期12月月考英語卷 題型：其他題

閱讀表達(dá)（共5小題；每小題3分，滿分15分）

       閱讀下面的短文，并根據(jù)要求答題。（請(qǐng)注意問題后的字?jǐn)?shù)要求）。

       "Wow, you got an A without even studying．"

       "Your drawing is wonderful --you're my little Picasso．"

       If you're like most parents, you offer praise to your children believing it is the key to their success．But according to a new study, praise may do more harm than good．

       For the study, after a simple IQ test, one group was told it did really well and must be very smart．The other group was told it did really well and must have worked hard． One group was praised for intelligence,                  .

       Asked if they wanted to take a slightly harder test, the kids praised for their intelligence were unwillingly．Of those praised for their effort, however, 90 percent were eager for a more challenging task．And on a final test the effort group performed significantly better than the group praised for its intelligence．

       Many of the kids who had been labeled "smart" performed worst of all．The "hard workers" got the message that they could improve their scores by trying harder, but the "smart" kids believed they should do well without any effort．Thus, kids who get too much praise are less likely to take risks, are highly sensitive to failure and are more likely to give up when faced with a challenge．

       Tips for Parents:

       ◆Avoid labels．Praising for effort sends the message that your child has the power to improve and change．Be mindful of labeling yourself and others．

       ◆Teach kids from an early age that the brain is a muscle that can be strengthened with practice．This sends the message that kids can directly affect their intelligence．

       ◆Parents often praise their kids to make themselves feel good, or to protect their kids from failure．But it's vital for parents to help their kids to learn to deal with setbacks and to help them focus on ways to improve．

1.What is the best title of the passage? （ Please answer within 10 words．）

 

2.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?

       As a result of much praise, kids will lack enough courage to risk and face failure and a challenge．

 

3.Please fill in the blank in the fourth paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence．（Please answer within 10 words．）

 

4.If your parents praise you too much, what should you do7 Why7 （Please answer within 30 words．）

 

5.Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.
