One morning, my husband Jerry went back to the kitchen as he just finished loading his car. “I guess filling my thermos(保溫瓶) is all that I have left to do, and then I’m off.” Down the drain went the hot water that had been warming his thermos.

With a nostalgic(懷舊的) look on his face, he softly said: “Anytime I fill my thermos I think of your mom.” The tone in his voice was so tender as he spoke of my mother, who is sadly no longer with us.

“Oh honey, I know she’s watching and listening right now with a big smile on her face,” I responded, tears in my eyes.

One morning years ago when we were leaving, mother watched as Jerry was to fill his thermos. Mom then casually said, ‘Jerry, if you filled your thermos with hot water and let it sit a while, your coffee would stay hot for longer then.” With her simple suggestion, his face showed that he was shocked by his own lack of common sense. Well, of course it would!

He poured out the small amount of coffee already in the thermos and refilled it with boiling hot water. Then he poured the water and refilled it with hot coffee. Mom smiled as Jerry did so.

Words of wisdom from a loving mother-in-law made an impact that will never be forgotten. She never dreamed her words would be a treasured and everlasting memory in the heart of her son-in-law.

The lasting memories don’t necessarily come from major moments in life. Memories are often made during those small, ordinary times. Life is about small moments we share with friends and loved ones.

1.Which word best describes the author’s feeling in Paragraph 3? ____

A. Confused B. Concerned

C. Touched D. Interested

2.The underlined part “don’t necessarily” is similar in meaning to ________.

A. out of the question

B. without any doubt

C. certainly and absolutely

D. possibly but uncertainly

3. The message that the story intends to convey is ______.

A. how valuable a mother’s advice is to her children.

B. that lasting memories come from small things

C. what a wise woman the mother is to her son-in-law

D. why we should respect our parents and listen to them.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2015年遼寧東北三省高三第二次聯(lián)合模擬考試英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

The stories we share with one another are important． They show wisdom and provide inspiration． They are important to our development． But sometimes people choose not to tell.

Consider the negative effects of not sharing a story in the news: People are wondering if public health officials are holding back too much information about the recent outbreak of Ebola.

There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told． Bobette Buster said it like this, “The fact is, history has shown us that stories not told can become like a dangerous genie (妖怪) left in a bottle．When they are finally uncorked, their power to destroy is set free.”

There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages; they require courage and strength to share; and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else.

Most of us have two selves: the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside． And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves, the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others.

Honesty and openness is important: It proves we are trustworthy． It displays we are human． We are not perfect or better． It highlights the importance of hard work and personal development． Hard work may not allow us to overcome our disadvantages completely． But with hard work, we do not have to be restricted to our mistakes.

Does this mean we admit every weakness, every disadvantage, and every secret regret to everybody we meet? No, of course not．There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.

1.What’s the function of the example in Paragraph 2?

A． It reflects that people are concerning about the spread of Ebola.

B． It shows the bad effect caused by sharing a story.

C． It proves not sharing a story can cause trouble.

D． It concludes that one should share a story at a proper time.

2.One of the reasons why people are unwilling to share experiences is that _______.

A． story-sharing highlights the importance of hard work

B． people are used to exposing their weaknesses

C． people sometimes have no courage to share their stories

D． some stories make themselves feel uneasy

3.Which is close in meaning to the underlined word “uncorked” in Paragraph 3?

A． freed B． broken C． unfolded D． untouched

4.The writer aims to convince us to _______.

A． be open to people close to you by sharing some secrets

B． share stories appropriately for the good of others and ourselves

C． remove the dangers that can be caused by untold stories

D． realize the importance of being honest when making friends

What’s on Your Pet’s Mind?In 1977, Irene Pepperberg of Harvard University began studying what was on another creature’s mind by talking to it．Her first experiments began with Alex．Alex was a one-year-old African grey parrot and Irene taught him to produce the sounds of the English language．“I thought if he learned to communicate, I could ask him questions about how he sees the world.”

At the time, most scientists didn’t believe animals had any thoughts．They thought animals were more like robots but didn’t have the ability to think or feel．Of course, if you own a pet you probably disagree．But it is the job of a scientist to prove this and nowadays more scientists accept that animals can think for themselves．

“That’s why I started my studies with Alex,” Irene said, “Some people actually called me crazy for trying this.”

Nowadays, we have more and more evidence that animals have all sorts of mental abilities．Sheep can recognize faces．Chimpanzees (黑猩猩) use a variety of tools and even use weapons to hunt．And Alex the parrot became a very good talker.

Thirty years after the Alex studies began．Irene was still giving him English lessons up until his recent death．For example, if Alex was hungry he could say “want grape”．Alex could count to six and was learning the sounds for seven and eight．“He has to hear the words over and over before he can correctly say them.” Irene said, after pronouncing “seven” for Alex a few times in a row．Alex could also tell the difference between colors, shapes, sizes, and materials (e.g．wood and metal)．Before he finally died, Alex managed to say “seven”.

Another famous pet that proved some animals have greater mental skills was a dog called Rico．He appeared on a German TV game show in 2011．Rico knew the names of 200 different toys and easily learned the names of new ones．When Rico became famous, many other dog owners wanted to show how clever their pets were．Another dog called Betsy could understand 300 words.

One theory for dogs’ ability to learn a language is that they have ben close companions to humans for many centuries and so their ability to understand us is constantly evolving (進(jìn)化)．While animals can’t do what humans do yet, some scientists believe that examples like Alex and Rico prove that evolution develops intelligence, as well as physical appearance.

1.Irene wanted to find out __________.

A． what a parrot thinks

B． why a parrot can speak

C． how parrots make sounds

D． if parrots speak English

2.Alex learnt new words by __________.

A． singing them

B． reading them

C． writing them

D． rehearing them

3.The two dogs mentioned in the article could _______.

A． understand some words

B． recognize strange voices

C． copy human gestures

D． tell different colors

4.The article concludes that ___________.

A． our pets understand what we say

B． dogs may speak to humans one day

C． humans are related to chimpanzees

D． mental ability can evolve in animals

It’s well-known that meditation (冥想) has many benefits, but do you know how to practice it for a beginner?

Set a proper scene

Find a space for meditation．It should be private and quiet．Make sure the temperature is comfortable．Sit on a cushion (墊子) if the floor is uncomfortable．You may play soft music if you like.

Take a moment to loosen up．Remember that the goal of meditation is to relax．Loosen your clothing, remove your shoes and have a good stretch．Do your best to ease any muscle tension that might keep you from achieving relaxation．Make an effort to relax your facial muscles．

Focus on your breath

Sit down in the space you’ve prepared．Close your eyes and breathe．Each time you breathe in, count “one”．Each time you breathe out, count “one”．The idea is to strengthen being in the moment — the last breath doesn’t matter, and the next one doesn’t matter; only this one matters．

Feel your breath inflate (脹大) your lungs and push on your diaphragm (隔膜)．Feel how sweet it is to inhale the fresh air．As you do this, your body will gradually begin to relax and all of your attention will be centered within your mind．

Return to real life

Once you feel fully centered in your mind, allow yourself to gradually drift back to real life．Move your fingers and toes and slowly wake your body up．Open your eyes and remain there for a few minutes until your senses come back, and then slowly stand up．

Even if you can’t make it fully into your mind, you still get some benefits from it．If you want to feel better, you just need to practice．Set about 10 minutes around the same time every day and repeat this exercise.

1.The text is about _________.

A．steps in practicing meditation for beginners

B．tips on how to breathe slowly

C．the benefits of practicing meditation

D．the best way to stay relaxed

2.Which of the following can best fill in the blank?

A．Forget yourself.

B．Prepare yourself for it.

C．Avoid being disturbed.

D．Pay attention to your inner self．

3.The underlined word “inhale” in the text can be replaced by “__________”.

A．look for

B．take in

C．keep away

D．think of

4.To gain greater benefits of meditation, beginners are advised to __________.

A．do some exercise in advance

B．listen to some popular music

C．practice it every day

D．spend a long time in practicing it
