We arrived in Spain for the first time a few weeks ago. I decided to   31  a car because we had sold the one we had in England before   32  home.

We paid for the car and     37  the papers. They told us that there was   38  petrol（汽油）to take us to a garage, where we could fill up. The   39  garage to the office was about 100 yards away and we got there   40  .But when I turned into the main road I suddenly saw a lot of cars racing  41  me. I got out of   42    as fast as I could by backing into the garage   43    and the man behind  44  me.
"It’s such a problem to   45    to drive on the right side, isn’t it?" my wife said. "Yes, if only I had had a few lessons for   46    ," I replied. "You had better go   47    on the way home," my wife said. "You' d be sorry if you had   48    on the first day, wouldn' t you?" While we were talking, the man behind got out of his car and said in good English," Would you mind tell­ing me   49  you are thinking of leaving?   50    are you going to sit in your car all day?"

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年湖北省沙市中學(xué)高一上學(xué)期期中考試英語(yǔ)試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

-American office workers spend an average of 52 hours a week at their desks, according to a statistic survey. Some might argue that not all that time is spent working，but still all those hours in windowless offices with artificial light can have an influence.
A few green additions could have a large effect on worker happiness，according to the survey led by Tina Cade from Texas State University.
“We pretty much found out that if you had windows and plants or even if you just had plants in your office, you were more satisfied with your job,” Cade told LiveScience. “We thought it was important for offices because a lot of times people are looking for ways to keep employees happy and do all these expensive things like building a gym. Maybe for less investment they could put in a few plants in important places.”
The team surveyed 450 office workers in Texas and the Midwest，asking questions about job satisfaction and the work environments. When asked about their overall life quality,82 said they felt “content” or “very happy”. Only 69 percent of those who work with plants but without windows，and 60 percent of those who have windows but no plants, said they felt this way.
The group of people who work without plants or windows were  the most dissatisfied，with only 58 percent of them saying that overall they were “content” or “very happy”. While no one who works with plants，windows，or both reported they felt “miserable”, 0.8 percent of those who work in offices without either said they were “miserable”. “I was really surprised that having a plant in your office appeared to be more beneficial than having a window in your office,” Cade said. “Everybody says, ‘I need a window!’ but actually it seemed like a plant could be a suitable alternative.”
【小題1】What does the passage mainly tell us?

A．Green plants can increase job satisfaction.
B．An easier way to increase job satisfaction.
C．What the best working environment is.
D．Who are happy with their job environment.
【小題2】Among the 450 people surveyed, ________.
A．69 percent have plants in their offices
B．60 percent have windows in their walls
C．0.8 percent of them feel dissatisfied
D．a(chǎn)bout 18 percent of them are satisfied
【小題3】 According to the survey，the group of people who work without plants or windows ______.
A．didn’t feel content at all
B．a(chǎn)ll suffered from work pressure
C．were the most dissatisfied
D．worked with low efficiency
【小題4】 Which of the following statement is true?
A．The employers want to do little to keep employees happy.
B．Sometimes it doesn’t need much to increase job happiness.
C．A gym contributes less to job happiness than green plants.
D．Employers have tried every means to increase job happiness.

One bitterly cold day，a snowstorm blew into our area. Needing firewood，I quickly set out with my best friend，Bruce，to look for a tree to cut down. I was glad to have Bruce along with. Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can be dangerous. So it was important to have a friend who could warn me of danger.
When I chose a big tree about 23 meters tall and prepared to cut it down，my best friend suddenly warned me，“Don’t cut down that tree！It’s too close to the power line！”I wasn’t sure about it. So I decided to disregard his warning. I wanted to finish the job quickly and go home. So I began cutting down the tree. When the tree fell，there was no longer any doubt that my friend was right.
The tree caught the power line，bringing it to the ground. I considered cutting the tree off the line. After all，electricity can’t travel through wood，so I could safely remove the tree. As I reached out my finger to touch the tree，pain ran up my arm and through my head. I was shocked!
After I returned home and told my mother what had happened，she quickly called the power company. The workers from the power company soon arrived on the scene. One of them asked if I had touched the tree，and when I told him I had，his face turned pale.
“You should have been killed，” he said.
So why am I still alive？It was my boots that saved my life.
Within two hours，the workers removed the tree. Soon the snowstorm calmed down—but not my mother.
Even though she was glad I wasn’t hurt，my mother was still serious. After all，I shouldn’t have brushed off my friend’s warning.
Through this experience，I learn it’s important to listen to people who offer a different perspective.  time to listen might actually save a lot of time and trouble. It certainly would have kept me from getting the “shock” of my life.
【小題1】The underlined word “disregard” in the second paragraph means “________”．

A．pay no attention toB．take notice of
C．considerD．follow
【小題2】In spite of Bruce’s warning，the author still cut down the tree because________.
A．he was sure there would be nothing to happen
B．he wasn’t sure if Bruce was right and was anxious to go home
C．he didn’t hear his friend’s warning at all because of the blowing wind
D．he knew electricity can’t travel through wood
【小題3】The underlined part “the snowstorm calmed down—but not my mother” means “________”．
A．my mother was still angry with me for not listening to my friend’s warning
B．my mother was still in fear of the terrible accident
C．my mother was still comforting me
D．my mother was still worried about my safety
【小題4】The author wrote the passage mainly to________.
A．give an account of one of his terrible experiences
B．make us know it’s important to listen to people who offer a different perspective through his experience
C．tell us not to cut trees down any more
D．remind us to be careful while we are working

A number of times Rosemary edged closer to Gordon , meaning to take his arm, but he edged away from her. She thought that she had offended him deeply, and that he was disappointed because she had pushed him away. She would have apologized if he had given her half a chance. But as a matter of fact, he was scarcely thinking of this any longer. It was the money business that was troubling him now. And the fact was that he would soon have to confess it. What nonsense it made of all he had said! Presently she stopped him, and swung him round to face her. “Gordon, why won’t you speak to me?” she said. “Are you still angry with me for what happened just now?”
“No, I was never angry with you. You’re not to blame. Something else has been worrying me all the way along, I’ve only eight pence left. I had just enough money for today when we started out, but that dinner bill upset everything. Can you lend me some money?’
Rosemary was amazed. “What does it matter if you’ve only eight pence left? How can you let yourself be worried by a thing like that? As though I objected to lending you money, aren’t I always telling you that I want to pay for myself when we go out together?’
“Yes, and you know how I hate you paying.”
“Oh, how silly you are.” She said. “Do you think there’s anything to be ashamed of in having no money?”
Gordon’s face went bright pink. “Of course there is ! It’s the only thing in the world there is to be ashamed of. I can’t be a complete human being—I don’t feel a human being –unless I’ve got money in my pocket.”

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012屆安徽省六安市正陽(yáng)中學(xué)高三考前仿真模擬測(cè)試英語(yǔ)試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

The most frightening words in the English language are, “Our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.”
“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”
“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.”
I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you people do?”
“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”
“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”
“That’s good, sir.”
“How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.
“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There’s no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us.”
After the girl told me they had no backup(備用) computer, I said. “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?”
“I couldn’t tell without asking the computer.”
“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington, ” I suggested.
“I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.”
“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”
“I wouldn’t know, ” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. ‘It’ can’t tell me.”
By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.
【小題1】The best title for the article is _______.

A．When the Computer Is Down
B．The Most Frightening Words
C．The Computer of the Airport
D．Asking the Computer
【小題2】What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?
A．She could sell a ticket.
B．She could write out a ticket.
C．She could answer the passengers’ questions.
D．She could do nothing.
【小題3】Why do you think they had not a backup computer?
A．Because it was easy down
B．Because it was very expensive.
C．Because it was not advanced enough.
D．Because it was not as big as the main computer.
【小題4】The last paragraph suggests that _______.
A．a(chǎn) modern computer won’t be down.
B．computers can take the place of humans
C．sometimes a computer may bring suffering to people
