科目:高中英語 來源:福建省期末題 題型:閱讀理解

     This brief book is aimed at high school students, but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life.
      Its formal, serious style closely matches its content, a school-masterly book on schooling. The author, W. H. Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing. In his opinion, reading doesn't just mean
recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorporating it
into oneself just as one digests a sandwich and makes it a part of him. The goal is to bring the information
back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees. Reading and writing cannot be
completely separated from each other; in fact, the aim of reading is to express the information you have
got from the text. I've seen it again and again : someone who can't express an idea after reading a text is
just as ineffective as someone who hasn't read it at all.
     Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for
studying languages, math, science and history. He generally handles these topics thoroughly and equally,
except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion regarding history. Well, he was a history teacher? if conveyed only a tenth of his passion to his students, that was a
hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across. To my disappointment, in this part of the
book he ignores the arts. As a matter of fact, they demand all the concentration and study that math and
science do, though the study differs slightly in kind. Although it's commonly believed that the arts can only
be naturally acquired, actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics.
     My other comment is that the text aged. The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s-none of the
references(參考文獻)seem newer than the late 1950s. As a result, the discussion misses the entire
computer age.
     These are small points, though, and don't affect the main discussion. I recommend it to any student
and any teacher, including the self-taught student.     
1. According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to________. 
A. gain knowledge and expand one's view
B. expresses ideas based on what one has read
C. understand the meaning between the lines 
D. get information and keep it alive in memory
2. The author of the passage insists that learning the arts_________. 
A. is as natural as learning a language  
B. demands real passion
C. is less natural than learning math    
D. requires great efforts 
3. What is a shortcoming of Armstrong's work according to the author?
A. It lacks new information. 
B. The style is too serious. 
C. There is too much discussion.
D. Some ideas are slightly wrong.
4. This passage can be classified as________. 
A. an advertisement  
B. news report
C. a feature story  
D. a book review

閱讀理解。
     Treasure Island isn't a true story, but the characters do seem to loan out of the pages alive,
armed to the teeth and ready to go treasure hunting
. But you will find, as you read this book, that
although pirates can be murderous and treacherous (奸詐的),they can also be cowardly, superstitious,
and easily led. As it turns out, that is fortunate for Jim Hawkins.
     It's a brilliant story. Billy Bones, a retired seaman, comes to live at the Admiral Benbow inn. Jim is
just a boy, but he can see that Billy Bones is a nervous man, always on the look-out for strangers arriving
at the inn. And well he might be nervous, because he carries with him in his battered old sea-chest a map
drawn by Captain Flint himself giving the whereabouts of all Flint's buried treasure! Captain Flint! -the
most feared pirate ever to travel the high seas.
    Well,Flint is dead, but there are plenty of men who served with Captain Flint still alive who will feel
they have a fair claim to the treasure. The map, though, ends up in the possession of Jim Hawkins-(it's a
near thing, read the book to see how that happens)
    Jim tells the secret in the local doctor, who quickly joins forces to acquire a ship and crew to sail for
Treasure Island
    There's a famous scene where Jim, hiding in the apple barrel on deck, discovers that mutiny (叛亂) is
planned. It's a bad moment. The numbers suggest that the pirates are going to have it all their own way.
There are nineteen mutineers and seven honest men, including Jim.     And now, you will have to read the
book for yourself. This is a fantastic tale of cheat, bravery and cowardice. I don't know how things would have turned out if it hadn't been for Jim Hawkins. For it is Jim who single-handedly steals the Hispaniola
from under the very noses of the pirates and sails her round the island to a secret beaching place.
    And do you know what happens to Long John Silver, the greatest double-crosser of them all? No?
Well, don't expect me to tell you. Don't be nervous of reading a 'classic'. I know it was published a long
time ago, but that doesn't mean it is difficult to read. There is one piece of advice I will give, though. I
don't think this book is ever out of print---there are hundreds of different copies around. If you can,
choose a copy with large enough print to be able to read comfortably, and exciting illustrations. It makes
all the difference.
    Go ahead! Read the book. I think you'll love it.
1. The underlined sentence indicates that _____. 
A. all the characters are true.
B. the author describes some vivid characters in the book
C. all the characters jumps out of the page alive
D. all the characters have armed teeth and ready to go treasure hunting.
2. According to this passage, which word can best describe Jim Hawkins?
A. brave  
B. fearful  
C. artificial      
D. tricky
3. How many characters are mentioned in this passage?  
A. 3      
B. 4      
C. 2            
D. 5
4. What's the purpose of this passage?   
A. to make a book review  
B. to recommend the book to the readers
C. to sell the book        
D. to tell a story

閱讀理解
    A new guidebook says being_happy_is_just_like_being_fit-you need to practice the skills needed to get
this emotion,even during the darkest times.
    Roadtesting Happiness:How to be Happier  by Australian journalist and author Sophie  Scott is a
selfhelp book with a difference. " Being happy is something you need to focus on;it doesn't come as a
matter of course,"  Scott said."You always need to make an effort to be happy,even if you reach the point
of saying you are contented, you still need to keep focusing and  working on  the things  that made you
happy." Scott also said the book was born out of her interest in the human mind as well as how difficult she found it to cope after her mother died of cancer two years ago.
    "I was always interested in psychology,but a lot of happiness books don't address the fact that you can
be happy even if your life isn't going according to plan.The key is managing expectations." She says,"In the
book,I focused on what were the things most likely to make people happy,the ones with the most scientific evidence."  People should think that being happy is yet another task you have to do and then feel guilty
when you don't do it.Scott says the road to a positive outlook begins with very easy,small steps.
    "Women in particular today______________:they've got to be thin,got to have a career,got to have a
perfect relationship so the last thing you need is to be thinking you've got to be happy all the time,"  she
said."But it is important to improve your quality of life.Stop rushing around and filling each moment of the
day with things to do,and then sit down and think about your life and how you're feeling.The things I got
out of this were not things that take a lot of effort:feeling more grateful for the things you've got;adjusting
your reaction to situations and people.It's about changing small habits,more tinkering around the edges
instead of totally checking and changing your life."
1.By saying "being happy is just like being fit",the author probably means________.
A.people should practice how to remain happy
B.people should spend more time working out
C.keeping happy is the key to continuing our life
D.it's difficult for people to keep happy all the time
2.What should we do if we want to remain happy in Scott's opinion?
A.Do some scientific research into the skills of being happy.
B.Work hard to achieve your expectations.
C.Read more books about psychological activities.
D.Think that being happy is a very important task to do.
3.Which of the following would be proper to be filled in the blank?
A.get high expectation
B.feel overloaded
C.can't look after themselves well
D.have no friends to help them
