I grew up in Jamaica Plain, an urban community lo?cated on the outskirts (郊區(qū))of Boston, Massachu?setts. My best friend Rose and I used to dream about raising a family of our own some day. We had it all planned out to live next door to one another.

Our dream remained alive through grade school, high school, and even beyond. Rose was my maid of honour when I got married in 1953 to the love of my life, Dick. Meanwhile, Dick longed to be an officer in the Marines and I fully supported his ambitions. T real?ized that he might be stationed far away from Jamaica Plain, but I told him I would relocate (重新安置)and adjust.

So, in 1955 Dick was stationed in Alaska and we relocated. Rose was sad to see me leave, but wished me the best of luck. Rose and I remained in touch for a few years via periodic phone calls but after a while we lost track of one another.

Now here I am at the doorstep to my 80th birthday and I received a random phone call on a Wednesday af?ternoon. "Hello?" I said. "Hi Natalie, it's Rose," the voice on the other end replied. "It's been so long. 1 don't know if you remember me, but we used to be best friends in Jamaica Plain when we were kids," she said.

We haven't seen each other yet, but we have spent countless hours on the phone catching up on 52 years of our lives. The interesting thing is that even after 52 years of separation our personalities and interests are still extremely similar.

Real friends have two things in common : a compat?ible (相容的)personality and a strong-willed character. The compatible personality is what makes the connec?tion begin between two people and a strong-willed char?acter at both ends is what maintains the connection. If those two ingredients are present in a friendship, the friendship is for real, and can thus sustain the tests of time and prolonged absence without faltering (動搖).

5.The writer had to leave her best friend because

A.she hoped to get more chances

B.she wanted to change her living situation

C.her husband was sent to another place

D.she had a quarrel with her best friend

6.When the writer was 80 years old, .

A.she and her best friend Rose met again

B.she and Rose got in touch again

C.she found she had nothing in common with Rose

D.she and Rose spent countless happy hours together

7.According to the writer, the reason why the friendship be-

tween her and Rose can last long is that       .

A.they often share their happy and sad moments with each other

B.their relationship is based on mutual trust

C.Rose is always there when she is in trouble

D.both of them have a compatible personality and a strong-willed character

8.Which can be the best title of the passage?

A.The story of two best friends

B.A friend in need is a friend indeed

C.The definition of a friendship

D.Ingredients in a friendship

B [2015 •山東省滕州市高三模擬] Hello. I'm Jan from Mrs Lake's class. My class want to work together to help the public. We think we have found a great way to do this. Last month we did a class project on the highways near our town. We learned about the Adopt-a-High?way Programme. This programme brings people together to pick up litter along the roads. We think it would be a great i-dea for all students in our school to join the programme and a-dopt a highway.

Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet. When a highway is adopted, only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people. The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean. Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the group printed on it. The sign is put up at the side of the road. This sign lets drivers know who is keeping that area of the road clean.

The Adopt-a-Highway Programme is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer. Also, the govern?ment does not have to send out many road workers. This saves money. Finally, people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people, especially teenagers like us, cleaning them up.

We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway. If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean, please come with your parents to the meeting next week. We will meet in Mrs Lake's room on Wednesday at 6:00 pm. At the meeting, we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of people's unkind acts. Then we'll try to pick an area to adopt and clean.

I look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Remember to keep our roads clean!

5.What is the Adopt-a-Highway Programme about?

 A.     Giving names to the highways.

B.     Drawing pictures of highways.

C.     Picking up litter along the roads.

D.     Putting up signs near the roads.

6. What should the students do first if they want to join the programme?

 A.     Pick a spot to care for.

B.     Call Mrs Lake next week.

C.     Write a letter to their parents.

D.     Go to a meeting on Wednesday.

7.What is the purpose of this speech?

 A.     To encourage students to join the programme.

B.     To introduce the traffic system.

C.     To show drivers how to drive safely.

D.     To tell a story about adopting a pet.

8. Which of the following can be the best title for the pas?sage?

 A.     Adopt-a-Pet Programme

B.     Adopt-a-Highway Programme

C.     Ways to protect the environment

D.     Volunteers on roads

A carefree summer vacation can be yours with these easy tips.

1.Fly into alternate airports.

Most major destinations are served by more than one airport. Flying into a less popular one can result in cheaper tickets. Another added perk of quieter airports? Shorter check-in and security lines, and less waiting around.

2.Use public transportation for city travel to save

time and money.

When possible, take public transportation from the airport to your hotel. For example, the London Heath?row express train takes just 15 minutes to get from the airport to the city and costs under 20 pounds. "By con?trast ,a taxi costs about 70 pounds and takes 40 mi?nutes," reports Discala.

3.Eat smartly, explore and save.

Look for ways to take your order in pricey restau?rants and you can avoid "Are we about to run out of money?" "Don't order an appetizer. Don't drink a lot of booze. " Discala says.

Also, cover more ground by spreading out your snack places. "Have dessert at a cafe or ice cream stand, instead of at the dinner restaurant," suggests Discala. You'll see more of the city and making decisions about where to go for dinner will be less worrying.

4.Hit the market.

Much like reading the local newspaper, visiting a market gives context to a foreign country.

Even the smallest villages tend to have a weekly open-air market(often on Saturday mornings) , while in larger towns and cities, people expect additional market days, as well as big supermarkets.

Markets also sell amazing, wallet-friendly souve?nirs. Think about sea salt?local spices or sauces, and re?gional oil and vinegar. Eatable gifts are almost always appreciated, saving you the stress of finding the "per?fect" gift for each person on your list.

5.The passage aims to tell the readers how to   .

A.    take a plane without waiting for long

B.    spend your holidays abroad economically

C.    eat in a pricey restaurant at the smallest expense

D.    save money to buy eatable gifts in a foreign mar?ket

6.What does the underlined word "perk" mean?

A. Special benefit.  B. Strict standard.

C. Common scene. D.  Extra trouble.

7.Which of the following will best help you save time and money?

A.    Choosing a bigger airport.

B.    Visiting local markets.

C.    Having dinner at the hotel.

D.    Taking an express train.

8.What can be inferred from the passage?

A.    Having coffee at a cafe will cost more money.

B.    Souvenirs bought at local markets are expensive.

C.    You will run out of your money if you eat out.

D.    Markets help you understand your tourist destination.

The other day I was watching SportsCentre when one of those "human interest" stories came on and really caught my attention.

The hero was about a 27-year-old professional Bass Fisherman named Clay Dyer. At first, they played it off as another guy trying to make the cut on the Bassmaster tour until they showed a picture of him. No legs, no arm, or rather, he has only 1/3 of his right arm. That's all that he has.

It was such an amazing story that I was wondering what this guy could do. Growing up, he learned to play-baseball and basketball, but found that fishing was his true calling. And he does it all on his own. He holds the fishing pole under his chin and uses that and his stub (殘端)arm to cast and reel the fish in. He uses his teeth to help him unhook fish. He ties his own hooks on with his mouth, never really asking anyone else to help. Clay Dyer even knows how to swim. Since his body can't produce enough sweat on its own, he has to take a dip in the lake every few hours to keep cool. He dives in just like anyone else, then somehow treads water(採7jO with his stub arm, then, with a little help, pulls himself back up into the boat and goes on fishing.

Clay Dyer has never looked for others' pity, and nor has he allowed his physical disabilities to prevent him from becoming a professional fisherman. His motto for life is "If I can, you can. ,, He refuses to use special equipment, saying, "I want to do it with one hand the way they do it with two."

5.    Why did the author become interested in Clay Dyer?

A.    He assumed Dyer was living happily.

B.    He thought that Dyer could do nothing.

C.    He took great pity on this disabled man.

D.    He wanted to know what Dyer could do.

6.    We learn from the last paragraph that   .

A.    it seems easy for Clay Dyer to go fishing

B.    Dyer aims to behave like a normal person

C.    special equipment is allowed when fishing

D.    physical disabilities destroy his faith in life

7.    Which word best describes Clay Dyer's personality?

A. Diligent.    B. Faithful.

C. Inspiring.   D. Stubborn.

8.    The text is intended to .

A.    persuade readers to watch SportsCentre

B.    share Clay Dyer's life story with readers

C.    call on readers to care for the disabled man

D.    express the author's admiration for Clay Dyer

Despite the high technology and investment in flood defences by the Environment Agency, there is no way to stop all flooding—sooner or later nature will produce something that will beat even the strongest defences.

Warning people of this clanger is very important if we are to prevent the great loss of life seen sixty-three years ago. Indeed if the Flood Warning system that currently exists had been around on that cold, stormy night in January 1953, many lives would have been spared.

The Environment Agency took over the role of flood warning in 1995 from the police who had to go door to door or sound alarms to get the news out. The service is being constantly improved and a combination of better technology and increased investment following the Easter Floods of 1998 has led to the creation of Floodline and an automatic messaging system that can warn thousands of people in very little time.

Floodline 0845 988 1188 offers information and advice 24 hours a day and if warnings are in place, callers can get information either from local updates or by using a quick dialling code for their area.

The Flood Warning team inKenthas also sent letters to the people living close to the rivers or the sea and invited them to join the AVM (automated voice messa?ging) system. Anyone choosing to take up this free service will receive a recorded message directly to their home, business or pager telling them of the level of warning, giving them as much time as possible to carry out their flood plan and save items that cannot be re?placed if lost or damaged, such as photographs or children's favourite toys.

1. Choose the CORRECT statements from the follow?ing according to the passage.

a.     Many people lost their lives in the flood in 1953.

b.    The Flood Warning system was already in use in 1953.

c.     Flood defences can stop all flooding.

d.    The Environment Agency began to warn people of flood in 1995.

e.     Floodline was created after the Easter Floods of 1998

A. a, b, c     B.  b, c, d

C.  a, d, e      D.  a, c, e


2.    What does the underlined word "pager" mean in the passage?

A.    A piece of equipment designed to receive and show messages.

B.    A boy employed to carry luggage in hotels.

C.    A page of papers written to offer messages.

D.    A person invited to write pages of messages.


3.    People can easily get information and advice about

lood any time of the day from     .

A.    automatic messaging system

B.    automated voice messaging system

C.    the Flood Warning team inKent

D.    Floodline 0845 988 1188


4.    The best title for this passage may probably be

A.    Environment Agency

B.    Flood Warning system

C.    Technology in flood defences

D.    Easter Floods
