I was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”

At that time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone! ” And she swept it into the wastebasket.

I stood watching her, speechless .What on earth?

She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room-if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!”

Then she turned to me, kissed me, and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.

After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her antics helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him calmly.

There is nothing in the US quite like Black Friday. Before midnight on Thursday, in malls across the US, people start queuing up outside the locked entrances of stores, making longer and longer lines, holding coupons (優(yōu)惠券), sipping coffee and hot chocolate, rubbing their hands and stamping (跺腳) their feet for warmth, excitedly chatting, and waiting for the clerks to open the door when the time arrives.

Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, which fell on Nov 28,2014, “has become in recent decades a special American holiday”, said the International Business Times. Indeed, up to 147 million Black Friday shoppers were expected to put up with the dark of night and the elbows(手肘)of other shoppers so that they could bring home some bargains, according to the US National Retail Federation.

But why does the shopping festival have such a name?

The name was first used in Philadelphia in the 1970s. The streets and sidewalks of the city became so packed with traffic and crowds on the day after Thanksgiving Day that the local police did not look forward to it. Because of this, they called the day “Black Friday”, said The Huffington Post. However, others believe that Black Friday takes its name from the fact that because of the increase in sales on the day, shops are able for the first time in the year to move out of the “red” – that is, debt – and into the “black”, or profit. Businesses, of course, try to take advantage of this day. A decade ago, retailers (零售商) opened at 5 or 6 am. Now, many of the big stores open at midnight.

People really seem to like the whole experience of queuing up before midnight, “for it isn’t just about the bargains”, noted CNN. “For many shoppers, it’s just fun to be part of a large crowd. Those who go to the malls at midnight are driven by the same thing that makes a million people get together in Times Square each New Year’s Eve.”

1.Which of the following statements about Black Friday is TRUE?

A.It is a special day in the US on which government hands out coupons to customers.

B.It is a shopping festival in the US that falls on the second Friday after Thanksgiving.

C.It has been a traditional American holiday since the founding of the nation.

D.It is an opportunity for Americans to get things they want at a much lower price.

2.According to The Huffington Post, the name of “Black Friday” may be first used ______.

A.at the beginning of the 20th century in the US

B.by American people who expected to bring home bargains after Thanksgiving Day

C.by the police to show their displeasure toward heavy traffic caused by shopping crowds

D.to describe the bad weather on the day

3.According to the article, people who queue up for Black Friday ______.

A.usually help each other to find good bargains

B.have great fun as part of the waiting crowd

C.have a lot of complaints about the service of the retail clerks

D.have to wait until 5 to 6 am to start shopping

4.What is the article mainly about?

A.The shopping habits of Americans.

B.An introduction to the origin and influences of Black Friday.

C.Tips on how to get good bargains on Black Friday.

D.People’s mixed feelings toward Black Friday.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來源:2014-2015學(xué)年四川成都外國(guó)語(yǔ)學(xué)校高三下3月月考英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

There are many ways of defining success. It is accurate to say that each of us has our own ideas of success to the extent that each of us is responsible for setting our own goals and determining whether we have met these goals satisfactorily. Because each of us possesses unique differences in genetic ability and favorable environments in which to express these abilities, it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly.

For some people,simply being able to live their life with the least misery and sufferings is considered a success. Think of the peace of mind of the poor shepherd who tends his sheep, enjoys his simple life with his family in the beauty of nature, and who is respected because he does a good job of achieving the goals expected of him and accepted by his family and his society. On the other hand, it seems that even though some people appear to be rich in material possessions, many of them seem to be miserable and consider themselves unsuccessful when judged by their own standards of success. Because not all ventures can be successful, one should not set unrealistic goals for achieving success, but if one has self-confidence it would be unfortunate to set one's goals at too low a level of achievement.

A wise man once said to a young man who was experiencing frustration (挫折)with his own professional success, “You do not have to set your goal to reach the moon in order to have success in traveling. Sometimes one can be very successful merely by taking a walk in the park or riding the subway downtown,” The man added, "You have not really failed and spoiled your chances for success until you have been unsuccessful at something you really like,and to which you have given your best effort. ”

1.According to the first paragraph, what is implied as basic in achieving success?

A. Ability and goals. B. Goals and determination.

C. Ability and environment. D. Goals and environment.

2.Some rich people consider themselves unsuccessful because ______.

A. their life is busy and miserable

B. they haven't reached their own standards

C. they set their goals at too low a level

D. they are not rich in material possessions

3.From the last paragraph we can tell that ______.

A. success means achieving great goals

B. success comes from great goal setting

C. success means efforts and favorites pay off

D. success has nothing to do with the distance of your travel

4.The purpose of the passage is ______.

A. to give us a clear definition of what success is

B. to talk about how to achieve success

C. to state what our life goal is

D. to discuss the importance of goals

He gave the two-foot-tall Charles a name, General Tom Thumb. He taught Tom how to sing, dance, act and tell jokes. When he felt Tom was ready to perform on stage, he made up ads. To stir up great interest, he said that Tom was eleven years old and had come from England.
