It is love that makes the world go round. And it is also love that has such power to overcome all difficulties. So we say: “Love will find a way.” As smile is a facial expression showing pleasure, affection, and friendliness, it is the commonest way to show our good will perfectly without saying anything. A Chinese saying runs: “never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that the smile is a language all its own— a universal language—understood by the people of every nation in the world. We may not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors, but we smile in the same tongue. We need no interpreter for thus expressing love, happiness, or good will.
One day while shopping in a small town in southern California, it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality contradicted mine. He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase. I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store. My anger toward that grew with each step. Outside, standing at the corner, was a dark-complexion young man in his early twenties. His expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, dazzling smile covered his face. I gave in immediately. The magnetic power of that shining smile drove away all bitterness within me, and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding. “Beautiful day, isn’t it?” I remarked, in passing. The, suddenly something inside me sent me turning back. “I really owe you a debt of gratitude,” I said softly. His smile deepened, but he made no attempt to answer. A Mexican woman and two men were standing nearby. The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly. “Carlos, he no speak English,” she volunteered. “You want I should tell him something?” In that moment I felt transformed. Carlos’ smile had made a big person of me. My friendliness and good will to ward all mankind stood ten feet tall. “Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said ‘Thank you!’” “Thank you?” The woman seemed slightly puzzled. I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave. “Just tell him that,” I insisted. “He’ll understand. I am sure!” Oh, what a smile can do! Although I have never seen that young man again, I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning.
From that day on, I became smile – conscious, and I practice the diligently, anywhere and everywhere, with everybody. When I got excited in traffic, taking the right – of – way (公路用地) from the other car with my stupid mistake, I’d smile and shrug my shoulders apologetically. This action on my part would always draw a good – natured smile in return. If the other fellow was at fault – and if I could remember my resolution in time! – he’d get a broad smile of understanding. This took a bit of doing at first. I’ll admit it wasn’t always easy, but it was fun. The results were sometimes amazing. Many times, a broad, friendly smile would completely turn aside ill – feeling and tension. I’m wondering now how many tragic add dents could be avoided on our overcrowded highways, if every driver remembered to smile!

A.of the clerk’s unfriendliness and lack of concern

A.was well – educated but unwilling to help others
B.was able to speak English
C.knew some English and was ready to help others

【小題3】 In the author’s opinion, if all people remembered to smile when driving,         .
A.many traffic accidents could be avoided
B.they would receive a good natural smile in return
C.they could get a broad smile of understanding
D.they wouldn’t feel any tension
【小題4】 The best title for this passage could be          .

A
Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.
I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice.
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car.
She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It’s nothing,” I told her. “I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.”
“Oh, you’re such a good man.” She said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(臨終醫(yī)院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(計(jì)價(jià)器).
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
At dawn, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
“How much do I owe you?” she asked.
“Nothing.” I said.
“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, there are other passengers,” I answered.
Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto e tightly. Our hug ended with her remark, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”
【小題1】The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ______.

A.show she was familiar with the cityB.see some places for the last time
C.let the driver earn more moneyD.reach the destination on time
【小題2】The taxi driver did not charge the old woman because he ______.
A.wanted to do her a favorB.shut off the meter by mistake
C.had received her payment in advanceD.was in a hurry to take other passengers
【小題3】What can we learn from the story?
A.Giving is always a pleasure.B.People should respect each other.
C.An act of kindness can bring people great joy.
D.People should learn to appreciate others’ concern.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源: 題型:閱讀理解

The intelligence of the dog is among the highest of all the animals, maybe higher than we give him credit for. Although his brain is only half as large as ours, he is certainly the most intelligent of domestic animals.

A scientist in Brazil has proven dogs can count. He used a technique which also proved that 5 month old infants can count:

"He placed treats in a bowl, hid it with a screen and let the animals watch as he removed or added some. The dogs studied the contents longer when the screen was taken away if a trick had been played leaving more or less treats than expected .He tasted 11 mongrels(雜種狗)and found they paid little attention when one plus one resulted in two treats. But they looked more closely when one plus one left three."

Memory is an important component of intelligence. The dog's memory for scents is extraordinary. His visual memory is only fair, but his memory for sounds is very good, since he can remember and identify familiar voices even after an absence of many years .While he builds up a large store of identifiable sounds without the slightest effort, remembering different words requires more concentration.

The dog's capacity for learning is more a matter of memory than of true understanding. He will remember the sequence of cause and effect in his actions, but he is unable to draw broad conclusions from his experience. The greater the variety of experiences and contact with others they have, the quicker they learn, and the more they retain.

Dogs are bound by nature to remain intellectually inferior to(劣于)man, but we owe them a chance to develop their native intelligence by training, teaching, and working with them as much and as often as we can.

1.This text focuses on dog's________

       A.a(chǎn)ppearances and behaviors                  B.intelligence and memory

       C.breeds and reactions                           D.emotions and attitudes

2.What does the experiment by the Brazilian scientist show?

       A.Dogs remain intellectually inferior to man.

       B.Dogs' brain is only half as large as human beings'.

       C.Dogs know the numbers if their attention is drawn.

       D.Dogs have the same intelligence as 5-month-old infants.

3.How does the dog recognize the owner after he has been away for quite a long time?

       A.It has memory for scents and voice

       B.It has true understanding of its owner

       C.It has extraordinary visual memory

       D.It often misses its owner and remembers him

4.This text is most probably______.

       A.a(chǎn) book review        B.a(chǎn) travel journal       C.a(chǎn) research report     D.a(chǎn)n animal test

This is our country, America. The country where everyone is supposed to have a shot at financial success. The country of dreams and ambition. Yet, caused by the endless pursuit of individual profit, our country is a mess. And we owe it all to capitalism.

     We live in a society where people are forced to live without health coverage. A country where the poor can hardly feed themselves while the rich decide which one of their 10 homes to stay at for the night. All of these sad things arise out of capitalism.

     Sadly, our country values little more than money. It motivates our decisions and even influences entire political parties. We have gotten to the point in society where a human life comes secondary to our financial security. Any rational society would value life above all else and realize that health is a basic human right. Yet in our world, money comes first.

I never once have claimed to be an economist and have no interest in debating the financial advantages of any economic system. Yet socialism surely looks better than what we have.

If we lived in a socialist society, we would be a country without such an unfair wealth distribution. We would value friendship over business and we would treat one another as humans. Most importantly, however, is that money would stop controlling our lives and we could act how humans should act.

    Capitalism has created an “every man for himself” existence. Everything is a battle for limited resources and fuels. We have become so accustomed to the life value that we will do whatever we have to look out for ourselves. Yet is this really the kind of life we want?

We have become so illusioned. We are tired of the misdirection. All economic systems have their issues, but I feel like ours is turning our country into something it shouldn’t be. The good of man falls secondary to money. In our world, it is all about dollars and cents, which, unfortunately for most, makes no sense.

51. In the author’s opinion, the root cause of the present situation in his country is __________.

A. money     B. people’s value     C. social unfairness     D. social system 

52. According to the passage, which is NOT the characteristic of capitalism?

A. individualism                        B. endless pursuit of wealth  

C. humanism                            D. great gap between the rich and the poor

53. How does the author feel about his country?

A. concerned             B. angry              C. skeptical         D. hopeless   

54. Which of the following would the author agree with?

A. Life should be placed at the top of our considerations.

B. Socialism is perfect.

C. Health is equally important as wealth.

D. The pursuit for wealth should be restricted.  

55. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A. How to Save America                   B. Capitalism Is in Trouble

C. Why Is America in Trouble           D. America Is in Trouble
