科目：高中英語 來源：2013-2014學(xué)年黑龍江省高三下學(xué)期第二次高考模擬英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

It is a wonderful morning, as I write this: hot, but without being too hot．Outside my window, I can see the sunniest sky of the year reflected in a huge natural expand of water．It is the kind of sun that makes you well aware of summer's temporary nature a reminder that if I am ever to go around to book this year's holiday, time is running out．

It is now close to four years since I last took a holiday．This is because I have come to the conclusion, over the course of my adult life, that I am not very good at it．You might say this sounds like saying you are not very good at drinking tea or listening to music．What could possibly be difficult about the natural act of putting your working life on hold for a couple of weeks and going somewhere to do nothing?

So what is my problem? On the surface, I'm probably a bit of homebody．And I just find the pressure of being on holiday too severe: it always feels like having a gun held to my head and being forced to have fun．Somehow, packing a carefully itemized（詳細(xì)列舉的）list of possessions and meeting a scheduled flight has none of the excitement of suddenly deciding to take a day off and driving somewhere for the fun of it．

Thankfully, I am not alone． This summer, most of my friends have decided not to have a break． And a recent survey highlighted the downside（負(fù)面）of holidays, with the results showing that nearly two thirds of people found that the calming effects of a holiday wore off within 24 hours, as stress levels returned to normal．And this year's the Idler magazine published its hook, Awful Holidays．Here you will find a list of the five most ecologically-damaging vacations it's possible to take, along with 50 horrible holidays experiences voted for on the idler website． Over the last decade, The Idler has become well known for promoting the idea of an easy, lazy life．The leisure（休閑）industry might seem an unlikely target of its criticism, but Dan Kienan, the book ' s editor, says that he was flooded with entries from readers for his list of awful holidays．

1.According to the first paragraph we can know that the writer ．

A． has a strong desire to book a holiday

B． wishes that the weather would change

C． finds it is too late to enjoy the sunshine

D． realizes it's time to decide whether to go on a holiday

2.The reason why the writer dislikes going on holidays is that ．

A． it usually costs too much money

B． he is tired of making preparations too much for holidays

C． it is far less enjoyable than breaks planned in advance

D． he feels embarrassed when other people are having fun but he isn't

3.We can learn from the survey that ．

A． most people pretend to enjoy their holiday

B． all people fail to relax while they are on holiday

C． a lot of people feel that the benefits of going on holidays are limited

D． many people have made the same decision as the writer and most of his friends

4.The writer takes the book of Awful Holidays as an example to ．

A． damage the reputation of the magazine

B． prove the idea of living an easy, lazy life to be wrong

C． indicate that his dislike of holidays is widely shared

D． focus entirely on bad personal experiences of holidays

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

A. Travel as often as possible

B. Provide great value to the world

C. Work hard and face great challenges

D. Make the very best of every situation

E. Spend time with friends who improve you

F. Work on something every day that moves you

Everyone hopes to live a long life. But how can you make your long life happy and meaningful? You can read on to find answers.

1.Go traveling wherever you want and go to see one part of the world you’ve never seen before. You will not regret it. Traveling has less to do with seeing things, as it does with experiencing them. It has less to do with discovering something, as it does with discovering yourself. You run into all the good things and bad things about yourself on a daily basis if you travel to new places, and you are provided with the opportunity to grow far beyond your years.

2.You can go through life and make new friends anytime, but no one can take the place of those persons who truly improve you. They are the most important people you will ever meet because they tear down the invisible walls you have built in your mind. In other words, they come into your life and help you develop your potential that you would never have been aware of without them.

3.The road to greatness is far from easy. You can be absolutely certain that when you feel you are getting weaker from struggle, you are in fact growing stronger than you ever have been before. The more difficulties you meet and solve on your lifelong journey, the more meaningful your life story will be.

4.One of the great secrets of happiness is freedom, and the secret of freedom is doing the best you can with what it done to you. It’s all about how you choose to respond to different situations. This simple choice makes a world of difference. If you find your situations tolerable, by all means tolerate them; if you find them intolerable, break through them. Eventually you are free because you alone are responsible for your thoughts and how you use them to improve your growth.

5.The best way to get ahead in this world is not to complete with others, but to serve them. If you want to get a promotion at work, be good to your boss. If you want to build a successful business, be of service to your potential customers. Provide unmistakable value. Value is what makes relationships, businesses, and personal efforts grow. At any age, in any situation, for every possible life path, there is value you can provide. Success and happiness will come when you choose to work for the world.
