题型:不详难度:来源:
Chuck,unlike other frogs,didn"t like catching flies himself. But he did love eating them.

Some frogs thought Chuck was lazy. Some believed he must think he was too good for them. Some thought Chuck was the strangest frog ever.
That didn"t matter to Chuck. Each morning,Chuck jumped over and sat under the spider"s web. Then when Lady Eightlegs went off to dip (浸) her feet in the pond,Chuck ate flies from her web.
One morning while Chuck was enjoying his fly breakfast,Lady Eightlegs returned and caught him.
“You"re the one who keeps eating my flies!”she cried.
Chuck jumped away and into the pond. Now there was an idea!Why not spin (结) his own web?
He collected some vines (葡萄藤) from a nearby farm. Then he began to spin his web. He worked on his web for hours,until very late at night. And then he fell asleep.
When he woke up the next morning,he found that he got caught by the vines.
“Help!”he shouted.
Lady Eightlegs looked up from the edge of the pond. She hurried up to help Chuck out of the vine web.
“No matter how hard I try,I can"t spin a spider"s web,”Chuck said.
“Of course not,”Lady Eightlegs said. “You"re a frog. Frogs can"t spin spider"s webs any better than spiders can swim,I guess.”
“But I always see you in the water,”Chuck said.
“I only wade in (蹚水) up to my knees,”Lady Eightlegs sighed. “How wonderful it would be to swim in the middle of the pond and float (漂浮) peacefully under the sun.”
Chuck smiled,“I have an idea.”
From that day forward,Chuck carried Lady Eightlegs out to the middle of the pond,where they floated and played together. When they returned to land,they shared a breakfast of flies from her spider"s web.
It wasn"t exactly an ordinary friendship. But Chuck was not an ordinary frog.
小题1:The second paragraph is written to show that Chuck ______.
A.was different from other frogsB.didn"t get along well with other frogs

解析

试题分析:Chuck是一只与众不同的青蛙,他和蜘蛛Lady Eightlegs交了朋友,每天他们一起在水里玩,然后一起去吃蜘蛛网上的虫子。
小题1:推理判断题。根据第二段的描述可知,Chuck是到蜘蛛网上去吃而不是和其他的青蛙一样自己捉来吃。故选A。
小题2:细节理解题。根据文章的No matter how hard I try,I can"t spin a spider"s web.可知,不管Chuck多努力,就是结不出和蜘蛛网那样的网。故选D。
小题3:推理判断题。根据文章I only wade in up to my knees.可知,蜘蛛只用身体的一点点在水里,最高到膝盖,然后漂浮在水面玩。故选C(蜘蛛很聪明。)。
小题4:推理判断题。根据文章最后的描述可知,青蛙带着蜘蛛在水面玩,然后他们一起吃蜘蛛网上的虫子。前面还提到青蛙被自己编织的网困住,蜘蛛来救他。故选B(蜘蛛对青蛙很友好。)。

Imagine someone has crossed the seas joining five continents by swimming. It is a major success for anyone. But it is an even greater success for Philippe Croizon, who has no arms, and no legs! His achievements show that we can all achieve great things—no matter who we are.
Philippe Croizon was 26 years old when he had an accident. The doctors had to remove both of his arms and legs. “When they cut off my last leg I wanted to die. I suffered great depression and my spirit was as low as you can get. But you have to choose—and I chose to live!” said Croizon.
While he was recovering in hospital, Croizon saw a television programme about a woman who had been swimming across the English Channel. After watching the programme Croizon decided to do it. He began to exercise every day to make him strong and it took him two years to prepare.
Finally in 2010, Croizon was ready. He entered the cold, grey sea of the English Channel. He was now 42 years old. It took him from early morning until night to swim the distance. He felt a lot of pain. But he had become the first person without arms and legs to swim between France and England. Croizon had achieved his dream, but he did not stop there. He looked for a new goal.
Early in 2012 he planned to swim across the seas that join five major continents. During the next few months he swam between the four continents of Australia, Asia, Africa and Europe and finally in the cold waters of the Bering Strait between the continents of Asia and the Americas.
“We want to show people something. If disabled people have courage and a lot of training they can do the same things as those who are not disabled,” said Croizon.

On a Friday night, a poor young artist stood at the gate of the subway station, playing his violin. Many people put some money into the       of the young man.
The next day, the young artist came again, and put his hat on the ground gracefully.    from the day before, he took out a large piece of      and laid it on the ground. Then he began      .
Before long, the young violinist was      with people, who were all attracted by the       on that paper, which said, "Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put something important into my hat     . Please come to claim(认领) it soon."
After half an hour, a middle-aged man ran there in a hurry and     through the crowd to the violinist and said, "Yes, it’s you. You did come here. I knew that you’re an honest man and would       come here."
"Are you Mr. George Sang?"
The man nodded.
"Did you      something?"
"Lottery (彩票). It’s lottery," said the man.
The violinist     a lottery ticket on which George Sang’ s name was seen. "Is it?" he asked.
George nodded, seized the lottery ticket and       it; then he danced with joy.
George bought a lottery ticket which       him a prize of $ 500,000. He was so happy after work and felt the violinist playing so wonderfully that he put 50 dollars in the hat.      , the lottery ticket was also thrown in.
When asked why he didn’t keep the lottery ticket      himself, the violinist said,"      I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty, I won’t be happy forever."
We can gain and lose so much in our life. But being honest should      be with us. If we bear ourselves in a dishonest way, we     succeed temporarily (暂时). However, from the long-term view, we’11 be a loser. Such a person is just like the         on the mountain. It’s high above at first, but gradually it falls and loses the    of going up.

Proudly reading my words, I glanced around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes. Confused, I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher. Having no choice, I slowly raised the report I had worked on, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”
Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. As I searched for the name of this fellow, it became obvious that there were two people with the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: flip (掷) a coin. Heads—the commander, and tails—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?
Obviously, my grade was terrible. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. At last, I worked very hard for the rest of the school year.
Ten months later, that chance came as I found myself sitting in the headmaster’s office with my grandfather, now having a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my chance to skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!
小题1: What did the author’s classmates think about his report?
A.Complex.B.Funny.C.Boring.D.Puzzling.
小题2: Why was the author confused about the task?
A.He was unfamiliar with American history.
B.He followed the advice and flipped a coin.
C.He forgot his teacher’s instruction.
D.He didn’t know why the teacher gave such a task.
小题3:In the end, the author turned things around _______.
A.by redoing his task
B.through his own efforts
C.with the help of his grandfather
D.under the guidance of his headmaster

The telephone rang in the police station at Richmond, California, US. “    station? A train for Santa Fe collided (相撞) a   at the McDonald Street Crossing. Please come here at once. With an ambulance, too. A man is badly wounded,” said an anxious voice of a young woman.
“OK. We’ll come soon. Please stay there and wait.” Replied the policeman.
Within a minute, a police car and an ambulance    off. Soon they got to the crossing, but only to find everything was fine. No collision, no wounded man.
“What a dirty    !” said the policeman angrily. “ We must find out that woman and…”
They had not been able to say anything about a     when they heard the whistle of a train was nearing them quickly. All of a sudden, a truck appeared. It came    towards them, too. When it was passing the crossing, it suddenly    to move on. Right then and there, before the eyes of all the people present, the train collided with the truck heavily and struck it dozens of metres away.
When Randolph Bruce, the driver, was helped out of the damaged truck, he was badly wounded just as the young woman had predicted on the phone. As he was taken to hospital in time, he was    at last. Later the police did whatever they could to    the woman who had     them, but failed.
It is really    that a prediction should agree with the fact so    .
