In the north of Scotland there is a lake called Loch Ness. It is the biggest   36   in Britain. It is over thirty kilometers 37 and in some places nearly 300 meters deep . It is cold and dark and not many people went there until after 1930. Then a road was made   38   the lake.

     Holiday makers began to use the road, and this was when the   39   began. Someone said that he had seen a monster(怪獸) in the lake. He said it was twelve meters long. It had a long   40  and a small head. Then someone else said he had seen  41  . Others said the same thing and in 1933 a London doctor took a  42  .

     Then the argument(爭論) began.   46 people, however, were certain there was something living in the lake. Others said there was   47  there.

     In 1961, a lot of people joined together to make a real  48   to see and photograph the monster to find   49  there was one! Several times people thought they saw something but after ten years there was  50   no real proof (證據(jù)).

     Later underwater television cameras were used, but   51   found any real proof. However, they   52  find something interesting: a huge underwater cave. It was big enough to be   53   of a monster, but of course, this was not a proof.

     In 1975, however, some American scientists  54  a search group. They used an underwater camera. It took pictures every seventy seconds. Some of the pictures seemed to show a red-brown creature. Its body was about four meters long  55   had a very ugly head on the end of a four -meter neck. Many people then began to believe in the monster. But even today we can't be certain.

    I must have been about fourteen then, and I put away the incident from my mind with the
easy carelessness of  youth. But the words, Carl Walter spoke that day, came back to me years
later, and ever since have been of great value to me.
Carl Walter was my piano teacher. During one of my lessons he asked how much practicing I was doing. I said three or four hours a day.
"Do you practice in long stretches, an hour at a time?"
"I try to."
"Well, don't," he exclaimed. "When you grow up, time won't come in long stretches.    Practice in minutes, whenever you can find them five or ten before school, after lunch, between household tasks. Spread the practice through the day, and piano-playing will become a part of your life."
When I was teaching at Columbia, I wanted to write, but class periods, theme-reading, and committee meetings filled my days and evenings. For two years I got practically nothing down on paper, and my excuse was that I had no time. Then I remembered what Carl Walter had said. During the next week I conducted an experiment. Whenever I had five minutes unoccupied, I sat down and wrote a hundred words or so. To my astonishment, at the end of the week I had a rather large manuscript ready for revision, later on I wrote novels by the same piecemeal method. Though my teaching schedule had become heavier than ever, in every day there were idle moments which could be caught and put to use. I even took up piano--playing again, finding that the small intervals of the day provided sufficient time for both writing and piano practice.
There is an important trick in this time--using formula: you must get into your work quickly. If you have but five minutes for writing, you can't afford to waste four chewing your pencil. You must make your mental preparations beforehand, and concentrate on your task almost instantly when the time comes. Fortunately, rapid concentration is easier than most of us realize.
I admit I have never learnt how to let go easily at the end of the five or ten minutes. But life can be counted on to supply interruptions. Carl Walter has had a tremendous influence on my life. To him I owe the discovery that even very short periods of time add up to all useful hours I need, if I plunge(投入)in without delay.
56.The meaning of “stretch” in the underlined part is the same as that in sentence “       ”.
A.The forests in the north of the province stretch for hundreds of miles.
B.Bob worked as a government official for a stretch of over twenty years.
C.My family wasn’t wealthy by any stretch of the imagination.
D.During his senior year his earnings far enough to buy an old car.
57.Which of the following statements is true?
  A.The writer didn’t completely take the teacher’s words to heart at first.
  B.Carl Walter has had a great influence on the writer's life since he became a student.
  C.The writer owes great thanks to his teacher for teaching him to work in long stretches.
  D.Rapid concentration is actually more difficult than most people imagine.
58.We can infer that the writer             
A.has new books published each year however busy his teaching is
B.is always tired of interruptions in life because his teaching schedule is always heavy
C.has formed a bad habit of chewing a pencil while writing his novels
D.can find sufficient time for mental preparations beforehand, so he's devoted to work   instantly
59.What is the best title of this passage?
A.Concentrate on Your Work           B.A Little at a Time
C.How I Became a Writer                 D.Good AdviceIs Most Valuable

I was walking along the deserted main street of a small seaside town in the north of England looking somewhere to make a phone call. My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to get in touch with the Automobile Association .Low gray clouds were drifting across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea. It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street. I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.
I could see no call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour I could ask. I had thought I might find a shop selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his job, but the town was completely dead.
Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office, and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street next to it was the town's only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint, I hurried forward but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was very fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat and rubber boots. I could not see his face - he was bending forward over the phone with his back pressed against the glass and didn't even raise his head at the sound of my coming nearer and nearer. Carefully and surprisedly, I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait my turn. It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the call box door.

科目:高中英語 來源:2013屆甘肅省蘭州一中高三上學(xué)期期末考試英語試卷(帶解析) 題型:閱讀理解

The black and white bird came ashore on a beach in the south of the North Island nearly 4,000 miles away from its usual habitat. The creature’s astonishing journey was witnessed by a woman walking her dog as the two-foot bird waddled out of the water in front of her. She said, “It was out of this world to see it. It was this glistening white thing standing up on the sand and I thought I was seeing things.” The tale of the lost penguin is similar to the 2006 children’s film Happy Feet, in which a young penguin finds himself far from home during a voyage of discovery.
Conservationists believe it has completed an incredible journey for such a young bird — it is estimated to be around 10 months old. The most likely explanation for its appearance in New Zealand is the hunt for food. Experts said it may also have rested on an ice floe (浮冰) during its travels and was carried north for a great distance before it made a swim for dry land. Colin Miskelly, a curator of New Zealand Museum, said, “They can spend months at a time in the ocean and come ashore only to moult (脫毛,換毛)or rest.” Mr. Miskelly said the brave bird would have to find its way back south soon if it was going to survive. He said, “It is probably hot and thirsty and has been eating wet sand.” “It doesn’t realize that the sand isn’t going to melt inside it because they typically eat snow — their only liquid.”
New Zealand residents have been warned to give the bird a wide berth — it can inflict (予以) painful bites if threatened.
【小題1】Which of the following is True of Paragraph 1?

A.A young penguin found himself far from home during a voyage of moulting.
B.A creature’s astonishing journey was incredible in the north of the North Island.
C.A woman witnessed a 2 feet bird waddled in the children’s film while walking her dog.
D.A penguin came ashore on a beach thousands of miles away from its habitate.
【小題2】Conservationists tend to explain that____________.
A.the young bird has completed a pleasant journey of 4,000 thousand miles
B.the young bird’s appearance in New Zealand is due to its hunt for food and delay of returning
C.the young bird comes ashore in New Zealand only to moult or rest during its voyage
D.the young bird is certain to be over 10 months old when it appears on a beach
【小題3】What do we know about the penguin according to Mr. Miskelly?
A.The penguin could spend months at a time in the ocean and came ashore only to have young ones.
B.The young bird might have slept on an ice floe and could not swim for dry land.
C.The young penguin didn’t realize the sand wasn’t going to melt inside it like snow it eats.
D.The brave bird would have to find its way back north soon if it was going to survive.
【小題4】What does the underlined part mean in the last sentence? 
A.The residents should keep well away from it when they want to watch the young penguin.
B.Some people do not realize the danger of the young bird and they are expected to touch it.
C.New Zealand residents want to keep the young bird but it wants to leave the shore.
D.If the local people threatened the young bird, it would do harm to other birds nearby. .
