I can still remember when I met my best friend.She had just moved into the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to  11  me.I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother,  12 to look at each other.Soon we lost the    13  and started playing with each other.
In the 7th grade,I first lost touch with her.She was  14 family problems and I deserted her to be with the "cooler people" because they knew she had been a   15       person.None of my new friends liked her as much as I did because they knew she had  16 .However,every summer we could always sit at each other’s house and watch soap operas,and talk about all the boys we liked.
It was last year when I noticed the problem.I guess I was too devoted in high school to   17 she needed someone there for her.Anyway,she made a new best friend and so did I.Then 1 didn’t know why,but she started cutting herself!
She then was diagnosed(診斷)with clinical(臨床的)depression.At first,1 was very   18 ,but we still stayed in   19 .I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend basically   20 her and people were calling her   21 ,and I knew I still cared about her like a sister.
Yesterday she came to me and said:“I never knew what a best friend was until you were the only person that would stop me cutting.I  22 you so much,and you didn’t even know you were   23 me.”
We both cried.And I guess a kind of   24 from my life so far is never to give up on your friends.Even if they aren’t as cool as others,or people think they are crazy,they need someone there.If you desert them,you will only be  25 yourself. So if a friend needs you, and you care for them, you can never desert them.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized(把…歸類) as "honor" help you create this life of good feelings.
Here's an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.
Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerk's mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky(卑鄙的) excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.
Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?
In the first case, where we don't tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate(演示) that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk's attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased.  Whenever we take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility(高尚).
There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And it's easy to think and act honorably again when we're happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once it's started, it's easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.
小題1:According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our_______.
A.self-respect B.financial rewardsC.a(chǎn)dvertising abilityD.friendly relationship
小題2:The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to_______.
A.lyingB.stealingC.cheatingD.a(chǎn)dvertising
小題3:The underlined phrase "bringing the error to the clerk's attention" means_______.
A.telling the truth to the clerkB.offering advice to the clerk
C.a(chǎn)sking the clerk to be more attentiveD.reminding the clerk of the charged item
小題4:How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake?
A.We'll be very excited.B.We'll feel unfortunate.
C.We'll have a sense of honor.D.We'll feel sorry for the clerk.
小題5:Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
A.How to Live TruthfullyB.Importance of Peacefulness
C.Ways of Gaining Self-respectD.Happiness through Honorable Actions

“Little lies” sometimes come to easily to us that we don’t even consider them to be lies. Read about these lies of everyday life:
1.  Lying about your age or your kid’s age to get a cheaper ticket.
2.  Telling the host of a dinner party that the terrible food he prepared is wonderful.
3.  Lying to your aunt about how much you love the gift she gave you---the one that you really hate.
4.  Telling a friend with a terrible haircut that she looks great.
5.  Lying to a friend about how much you want to see her again when you really don’t
6.Telling the salesperson who calls when you’re watching TV that you’re very busy.
Are these serious lies? Probably not, but if you would lie about your age to a stranger, what’s going to stop you from lying about something more serious later? If we tell a lie or act dishonestly and get what we want, that might make us feel good today. But what about tomorrow? The future results of our lies are uncertain.
Still, no one is saying that everyone can or should be completely honest all the time. More people lie, often for a good reason. Lies are told all the time and are part of our everyday social life. Many times people lie to protect the feelings of other people, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Honesty is usually the best policy, but like any other policy, you have to make exceptions. 
小題1:The author tries to persuade the readers to accept his argument by___________.
A.making suggestions.B.explaining reasons and results.
C.providing examples and facts.D.discussing questions.
小題2:The author’s attitude towards little lies is that_________.
A.he feels very fond of them.B.he feels they are necessary sometimes.
C.he feels strongly against telling little lies.D.he feels ashamed of telling little lies.
小題3:According to the text, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Some people are born liars.B.People often lie to avoid hurting others.
C.Some people can be honest all the time. D.Little lies are not serious things.

Willy, a merchant, returned home to his own country from a faraway continent, where he had succeeded making a small fortune by hard work. He found on arriving at the port that all his relatives were having a large party.
He was in such a happy mood and in the joy of the moment, he did not even bother changing his grey flannel(法蘭絨)suit which had become a little worn during the trip home.
When he entered the brilliantly lit room, his relatives and friends gave him a rather cold welcome because they had noticed his modest suit and immediately imagined that he had come back a poor man.
A young man who happened to be accompanying him was quite irritated at this and said to Willy, “What a wonderful reception you have received from these people. They have not even the intention of shaking your hand after all these years that you have been away from home.”
“Just wait and see!” whispered Willy, “They will soon change their looks!” Saying this he slipped a precious ring on his finger. All of a sudden the faces of all those present lit up and immediately Willy was surrounded by so many people that he didn’t know what to do. A man shook his hand, a cousin threw his arms around him, and he had so many invitations from the people present that he thought he would be unable to make any other appointments for several years.
“Has this beautiful, precious ring of yours the power of magic people?” asked the young man.
“Oh, no!” replied Willy, “They see in this glittering diamond ring something that makes them think I am rich, and, unfortunately, they place wealth above everything else.”
"What blind people!" exclaimed the young man. “It is not the ring that has drawn them to you but their desire for riches. Is it possible to appreciate more a piece of yellow metal surrounded by little stones than the goodness of my Lord? And indeed how foolish are people who place their trust in riches rather than in virtues(美德)!”
小題1: In what way did Willy go to attend the party held by his relatives and friends?
A.In such a modest mood.B.In travel-soiled clothes.
C.Wearing a precious jewel.D.Without being accompanied.
小題2: The word “irritated” in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to “______”.
A.excitedB.pleasedC.a(chǎn)ngry D.envious
小題3: According to the young man, people should ______.
A.give up all the physical wealthB.a(chǎn)ppreciate more jewelry than goodness
C.observe carefully when judging a personD.a(chǎn)void being blinded by the desire for wealth
小題4:Which can be the best title of the passage?
A.The Diamond RingB.The Welcome Party
C.The Modest Clothes D.The Joyful Crowd

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

She was born to wealth and power in an era when money and politics were left to the men. Later, as The Washington Post’s publisher, Katharine Graham became one of America’s most powerful women.
Despite a privileged background, Katharine had to deal, while growing up, with the high demands her mother placed on her children. Katharine’s love of journalism, which she shared with her father, led to her career after college at The Washington Post, the newspaper her father bought in 1933. At the Post, Katharine met Phil Graham, a young, charming lawyer who became her husband. When, in 1945, Katharine’s father chose Phil over her to take over his struggling paper, Katharine didn’t object and stayed at home as a wife and mother of four.
While Phil’s successful efforts to restore the Post to prominence (顯著) made the Grahams popular members of the Washington social scene, Katharine privately suffered tremendous pain from her husband’s increasingly abusive behavior and wild mood swings caused by severe depression. When Phil committed suicide (自殺), the 46-year-old Katharine found herself thrown into a new job, that of newspaper publisher. But determined to save the family paper for her children, Katharine rose to the challenge of running the Post, attending meetings in every department, working endlessly to prove herself to her critics, and becoming the toast of Washington.
In 1971, Katharine ordered the Post to print a copy of the Pentagon Papers, the top-secret documents disclosing the truth about the United States’ involvement in the Vietnam War. What’s more, her courageous decision and support for her journalists prepared the Post to break the most important political story in modern history: Watergate, one of the greatest scandals (丑聞) in American political history. Katharine managed to keep control over the most chaotic (disorder) of situations when it was reported, all the time insisting the news stories be accurate and fair. Watergate made the Washington Post an internationally known Paper and Katharine was considered as the most powerful woman in America.
小題1:
Katharine Graham was born in a time when women were not ________.
A.given the chance to receive educationB.considered as intelligent as men
C.permitted to achieve their goalsD.a(chǎn)llowed to enter every field
小題2:
When her husband was chosen to take charge of the newspaper, Katharine Graham ________.
A.was strongly against the idea
B.was not happy to be rejected
C.was willing to take her share of responsibility
D.didn’t believe her husband would do a good job
小題3:
Which of the following statements is true?
A.It was Katharine Graham’s husband who made the greatest contributions to the Post.
B.When Katharine Graham first took over the Post, her critics doubted her ability.
C.Katharine Graham was successful in her career but suffered severe depression.
D.Katharine Graham was free to do whatever she liked in her early life.
小題4:
Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Ups and downs of The Washington Post.
B.Katharine Graham’s family life and career.
C.Katharine Graham: from housewife to successful publisher.
D.Katharine Graham: a woman who shaped American journalism.
