   Since my retirement(退休) from teaching music in 2001, I have spent a good deal of time painting as an artist. I actually began drawing again in the summer of 1995 when my father died, so perhaps I was trying to recover from the loss of my father, or maybe it was just that it brought back memories of him. In any case, I drew pen and ink animals and landscapes(風(fēng)景畫) much influenced(影響) by Krenkel and St. John for five years.

For some strange reason, I had been waiting until my retirement to start doing watercolors again, but as soon as I walked out of the school door for the last time I picked up my brushes and rediscovered Andrew Wyeth, who quickly became my favorite artist. I had looked through all the art books I had on my shelves and found his watercolors to be the closest to how I thought good watercolors should look. So I painted landscapes around Minnesota for three years and tried out many other types of painting. However, watercolors remained my first choice, and I think I did my best work there, showing my painting at a number of art exhibitions.

Art is now together with my piano playing and reading. There is a time for everything in my world, and it is wonderful to have some time doing what I want to do. As Confucius once said, “At seventy I can follow my heart’s desire.”

69．What is the text mainly about?

       A．Learning to paint in later life.                 B．How to paint watercolors.

       C．An artist-turned teacher.                       D．Life after retirement

70．The author started drawing again in 1995 because ___________.

       A．he hoped to draw a picture of his father

       B．he couldn’t stop missing his father

       C．he had more time after retirement

       D．he liked animals and landscapes

71．We can infer from the text that the author ____________.

       A．had been taught by Krenkel and St. John

       B．painted landscapes in Minnesota for 5 years

       C．believed Wyeth to be the best in watercolors

       D．started his retirement life at the age of seventy

72．How does the author probably feel about his life as an artist?

       A．Very enjoyable.                                    B．A bit regretful.

       C．Rather busy.                                        D．Fairly dull.

I have been using the Internet since I was five years old, when my dad first sat me down in front of a computer and connected me the World Wide Web.

I’ve always felt like a master of the Internet world. AOL Instant Messaging, MSN, Gmail, Facebook, Myspace -- I’ve got it all under control. I thought there was nothing more to it besides checking my e-mail and wasting my time, until I was introduced to electronic commerce(e-commerce): business on the Internet.

Some online businesses are run from one-room home offices. Others have hundreds of employees (雇員) across the world. Have you ever heard of Amazon.com, Yahoo.com?

My friends often said they got cheap textbooks off Amazon.com, or had a good deal (交易) on Steve Madden shoes that were on sale at SteveMaden.com. Unfortunately for me, I continued my “e-commerceless” Web-surfing, not knowing about all the deals I was missing out on.

That is, of course, until my sister finally sold the idea to me.

“Why are all these packages arriving in the mail for you, Katy?” I asked her one day. Strange envelopes (信封) had been put on our doorstep for weeks now, each one always addressed to my sister; and we all know little sisters should never be getting more mail than their elders!

“Oh, it’s the things I ordered online!” she answered. I watched speechlessly as she opened them. There was no way our parents were letting her spend that much money- online or off!

“How much did all of this coat?”

“Oh, only about $15 in all!” She said excitedly. “Everything on eBay is on sale! It’s a way better than going to the mall.”

I felt as if there had been a store right in my backyard that I had never walked into! That week, I ordered a used Spanish textbook for my summer course online for 10 percent of the publishing price. A few days later, I bought an iPod protector and a book or two via the wonderful eBay.com.

1.From the first two paragraph we can conclude that the author        

A．had no experience using computers

B．had no idea of what e-commerce is

C．only used the Internet to check e-mail

D．thought surfing the Internet was a waste of time

2.The writer didn’t find out about e-commerce until       

A．he stopped web-surfing

B．he visited a store in his backyard

C．his sister explained the packages she got by mail

D．his friends told him about the online deals they made

3.We can infer from the last paragraph that the author       .

A．never enjoyed shopping that much

B．loves the big store in her backyard

C．feels she is a true master of the Internet

D．has begun to enjoy online shopping

4.What’s the purpose of the article?

A．To tell the readers how he begins online shopping.

B．To do business on the Internet.

C．To make an online shopping ad.

D．To advise people not to do online shopping

科目：高中英語 來源：2014屆河北省高一3月月考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

It was graduation day at the university where I work and a beautiful day quite unlike the first graduation I attended as a young professor. On that cold day years ago, as we watched the students walking into the hall, one of my colleagues（同事）turned to me and said, “Graduation will be one of the happiest and one of the saddest time of your life.” At my request, he answered, “Because the students you have got to know have to leave.”

As years went by, my previous confusion about my colleague’s words no longer existed. When I came across naughty students, I had to rethink why I chose to be a teacher. It obviously isn’t the money. Once a former computer science student of mine called me, asking me if I wanted to have a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His salary was higher than my present one, though I have more education and have worked for over 10 years. With my programming skills, he said he could get me hired, I thanked him, but refused his kind offer.

A few days before this graduation, while working on final grades, I found a note a student had slipped in with her homework. She thanked me for being her teacher and said the things she had learned in my class – not about math, but about life – would be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded away. As I finished reading, I remembered why I had become a teacher.

Now, on this sunny graduation day, as I again observed the sea of blue hats and gowns, I did so with a deeper sense of satisfaction – I will always be grateful that I am a teacher.

1.Hearing his colleague’s description of graduation for the first time, the author ______.

A．quite agreed with his colleague

B．was very puzzled

C．thought it very funny

D．was very sad

2.The computer science student called the author because he ______.

A．wanted to inform the author of his present job

B．wanted the author to share his joy and satisfaction

C．tried to persuade the author to work with him

D．thought the author wasn’t fit to be a teacher

3.The underlined phrase blue hats and gowns refers to ______.

A．the new graduates

B．the university colleagues

C．life memories

D．decorations in the hall

4.We can learn from the text that the author ______.

A．was only a young professor

B．didn’t do well in his work

C．taught his students more about life than math

D．was content with the job as a teacher
