One of my father’s favorite sayings as I was growing up was “Try it!” I couldn’t say I didn’t like    , whatever it might be,     I tried it. Over the years I’ve come to     how much of my success I owe to my    of those words as one of my values. My     job was just one I decided to try for a couple of years until I     what I wanted to do as a career.      I believed I would work for a few years, get married, stay home and raise a family, so I didn’t think the job I took     that much. I couldn’t have been more    . I mastered the skills of that beginning level position and I was given the opportunity to    through the company into different     .I accepted each new opportunity with the     , “Well, I’ll try it; if I don’t like it I can always go back to my     position.” But I was with the same company for the past 28 years, and I’ve     every career change I’ve made. I’ve discovered I     a large number of different talents and skills that I never would have thought were within me had it not been for my being    trying new opportunities. I’ve also discovered that if I      what I am doing and work hard at achieving my     , I will succeed. That’s why I am so     to be a part of CareerFables.com.

I never thought I would have a life-changing experience at Wal-Mart.
Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasn't moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier.
There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, he's an old guy!
For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, "How's it going?" But he did something different--he actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversation.
I thought it was odd. I has grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit. After a while, you don't give any thought to the question and just mumble something back. I could say, "I just found out I have six months to live," and someone would reply, "Have a great day!"
But that wasn't the end.
He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. He looked the customers in the eyes. "I sure want to thank you for shopping here today," he told them. "You have a great day. Bye-bye."
The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins. All had been touched by his simple gesture--and in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.
Of course, he did the same to me and I got to know his name--Marty.
Who was that guy? It was as if Sam Walton had come back from the dead and invaded this old guy's body.
I had never walked away from that shop feeling like that.
小題1:What was most customers' reaction to Marty's behavior?
A．They thought it priceless.
B．They thought it awful and odd.
C．They felt somewhat offended.
D．They were in some way moved.
小題2:The checkout line the writer was standing in moved slower than expected because______
A．the cashier did more than scanning the items
B．the cashier couldn't work as fast as others
C．there were some big purchases
D．the writer was not patient enough
小題3:What can we infer about Sam Walton?
A．He might be Marty's father or grandfather.
B．He might have died while working in the market.
C．He might be friendly and devoted to Wal-Mart.
D．He might have come back from the dead once before.
小題4:According to the writer, when common people ask you "How's it going?"
A．they are just practicing their conversation ability
B．they are inquiring about your private information
C．they don't expect to hear any negative answers
D．they don't really care what you may answer
小題5:What does the writer intend to express through the text?
A．Our everyday life is always full of surprises.
B．Being different is a good way of doing business.
C．A little positive action can make a big difference.
D．Most customers enjoy being treated this way.

I remember the first time that I was extremely happy, I was about 8 years old when for the first time, there was a computer in the classroom. I remember that my teacher allowed each student to take turns to play various educational games on the computer. One day, I found the source code for one of these games. Without knowing or being taught any programming language, I was able to figure out some of the BASIC code. I just gave myself a limitless number of lives in the game, so I could continue playing it forever. This was also my first introduction to algebra, and I didn’t even know it at the time. This was a decisive moment in my life. I was quite excited because of what I was learning and what I was able to do. As a result, I was enthusiastic for the rest of my life about self-learning and computers, and I was quite happy doing them too.
I’ve noticed that people who are truly content with life are enthusiastic about what they do. This enthusiasm, along with good health, is the key to being happy. It also leads to self-confidence and content in life too. It may also lead to success, wealth and achievements.
Success, wealth or achievements can also bring some people happiness, yet I know plenty of rich people who are unhappy. I know many people with successful businesses that are not happy with what they are doing. I know people who continuously buy themselves new toys, such as cars, computers, and televisions, yet never seem content for too long. Please remember, happiness is the journey of life, not the destination.
小題1:What can we know from Paragraph 1?
A．The author has a great talent for algebra.
B．Creative thinking is necessary for every child.
C．The BASIC code of the computer is not difficult.
D．The author’s experience in his childhood changed his life.
小題2:The author wants to tell us through the first paragraph that____.
A．interest is the best teacher
B．children are the hope of the future
C．young people are fearless
D．where there’s a will , there’s a way
小題3:What is the secret of happiness in the author’s opinion?
A．Success and wealth.
B．Gifts and self-confidence.
C．Enthusiasm and good health.
D．Knowledge and achievements.
小題4:We can infer from the last paragraph that ______.
A．rich people generally feel unhappy
B．wealth can’t bring people any happiness
C．one will feel unhappy once he has gained all the things he wants
D．being enthusiastic about what you are doing is more important than wealth

Nobody likes home economics (家政學(xué)). But restoring the program could help us in the fight against obesity and chronic (慢性的) diseases today.
The home economics movement was founded on the belief that housework and food preparation were important subjects that should be studied scientifically. The first classes occurred in the agricultural and technical colleges that were built in the 1860s. When most departments of universities rejected women, home economics was a back door into higher education.
Indeed, in the early 20th century, home economics was a serious subject When few people understood germ (微生物) theory and almost no one had heard of vitamins, home economics classes offered vital information about washing hands regularly, eating fruits and vegetables and not feeding coffee to babies.
However, today we remember only the fixed ideas about home economics, forgetting the movement’s most important lessons on healthy eating and cooking. Too many Americans simply don’t know how to cook. Our diets, consisting of highly processed foods made cheaply outside the home, have contributed to many serious health problems. In the last decade, many cities and states have tried to tax junk food heavily or to ban the use of food stamps (食品券) to buy soda. Clearly, many people are doubtful about any governmental steps to promote healthy eating. But what if the government put the tools of obesity prevention in the hands of children themselves by teaching them how to cook?
My first experience with home economics happened two decades ago when I was a seventh grader in a North Carolina public school. A year later, my father’s job took our family to Wales, where I attended a large school for a few months. It was the first time I had ever really cooked anything. I remember that it was fun, and with an instructor standing by, it wasn’t hard. Those lessons stuck with me when I first started cooking for my husband and myself after college and they still do. Teaching cooking in public schools can help solve some problems facing Americans today. The history of home economics shows it’s possible.
小題1:Home economics______.
A．is a subject becoming more and more popular with Americans
B．is often used to help fight against obesity and chronic diseases
C．once offered women a. special approach to university education
D．was first taught in the agricultural and technical colleges in the early 1900s
小題2:The third paragraph mainly tells us______ .
A．the importance of regular hand washing
B．the health benefits of fruits and vegetables
C．the contents of home economics classes in the early 20th century
D．the significance of teaching home economics in the early 20th century
小題3: In the opinion of the author, how should we fight against childhood obesity?
A．Children should be taught how to cook.
B．A heavy tax should be put on junk food
C．Healthy eating should be promoted at school
D．Using food stamps to buy soda should be banned
小題4:What does the author imply in the last paragraph?
A．Her family moved frequently in her childhood.
B．Cooking classes have a far-reaching influence on her later life.
C．To receive a better education, she went to a large school in Wales.
D．Teaching cooking is the key to solving Americans’ health problems.

“I’ve changed my mind．I wanted to have a telescope, but now I want my dad back．” Lucien Lawrence’s letter to Father Christmas, written after his father had been knifed to death outside his school gate, must have touched everyone’s heart．Lucien went on to say that without his father he couldn’t see the stars in the sky．When those we love depart from us, we cannot see the stars for a while．
But Lucien, the stars are still there, and one day, when you are older and your tears have gone, you will see them again．And, in a strange way, I expect that you will find your father there too, either in your mind or heart．I find that my parents, who died years ago, still linger （留連） in many of my dreams and that I think of them perhaps more than I ever did when they were alive．I still live to please them and I’m still surprised by their reactions．I remember that when I became a professor, I was so proud, or rather so pleased with myself that I couldn’t wait to cable my parents．The reply was a long time in coming, but when it did, all my mother said was “I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children!” I haven’t forgotten．The values of my parents still live on．
It makes me pause and think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care．Would I have been as ready as Philip Lawrence has been to face the aggressors（入侵者）, and to lay down my life for those in my care? How many people would want me back for Christmas? It’s a serious thought, which gives me pause．
I pray silently, sometimes, in the dead of night, that ancient cry of a poet “Deliver my soul from the sword and my darling from the power of the God．” Yet I know death comes to us all, and sometimes comes suddenly．We must therefore plan to live together, but live as if we will die tomorrow．We live on, I’m sure, in the lives of those we loved, and therefore we ought to have a care for what they will remember and what they will treasure．If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true, there might be fewer knives on our streets today．
小題1:According to the whole text we can see that the first paragraph ________.
A．puts forward the subject of the text

"How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked   51  ．
"As high as it can?" I  52  ．
"Yes," He said． "Give me glory  53   rising as high as you can．"

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解



"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."
You probably heard those lines in grammar school, but do you really agree that harsh (嚴(yán)厲的) or negative words do not harm us? Words have power. Surely we all have had our feelings hurt by something someone said.
We may not say words to hurt others, but the way we interpret (解釋) them and how we say them may cause great harm. Here’s an example:
An ancient king dreamed all his teeth had fallen out. He sent for a wise man to explain his dream to him: the dream means that all your relatives will die and you will be left alone!
The king was very angry and threw the interpreter into prison. He then sent for another interpreter who said, "Congratulations! King! You will live many more years. In fact, you will survive all your relatives. Long Live the King!"
Both interpreters gave the same interpretation, but there was a huge difference in the way they said it.
Our speech must be understood by those who hear our words, but the way we say things and the intention behind them have as much power as the words themselves. Words can cause anger or appreciation. Which would you rather receive?
People who say harsh and negative things may not mean to harm, but have you ever known anyone who is a naysayer? They often look at the dark sides of things. They always see the glass as half empty rather than half full. How do you feel when you are around this type of person? Remember words have power. Use them wisely.
