三、阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A.B.C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项的标号涂黑。 A I remember a day when I was a little kid. I was making a sandwich in the kitchen when I noticed the date on one of the wine bottles. "Dad, dad!" I cried. "This wine is too old to drink." "Son, hold on," he said. "No, you can"t drink this tonight! This bottle of wine was made 10 years ago." "Wait, let me tell you..." "Would you like me to throw it away for you?" I asked. "Son, wait a second," he said. "Son, some wines get better over time. The longer you wait to drink it, the better it will be. Although this may seem strange, it is true." When I was young, I didn"t have any understanding of what this meant, but now, this would have been very helpful to remember as I went through my teenage years. In our society, we forget this simple role: The longer you wait for certain things, the better they will be. But we want the best job as quickly as possible; we want to graduate from college in as few years as possible; we even speed through our homework just to chat with friends. When we do this, we lose something of great importance. We all want to get to the next step so quickly that perhaps we don"t get ready enough to get there. This has a negative effect on our society. When trying to go to the right college, we will do anything to get in and when we rush through our class-work, we may not study enough for the test, and end up failing. We need to be ready for whatever comes, ready for the unexpected. Wine gets better over time, so do the things in our paths of life. 56.Why did the author tell his father not to drink the bottle of wine? A.Because it smelt terrible. B.Because it was mixed with something else. C.Because his father drank too much that night. D.Because it had been kept for years. 57.What the author"s father said______. A.made the author puzzled when he was a little child B.was too simple a rule to be meaningful to the author C.threw the author into deep thought then D.was an excuse to drink the wine 58.In the author"s opinion, if we do things too quickly we will______. A.do it better B.save much time C.graduate from college more quickly D.miss something useful to us in life 59.Which of the following best reflects the main idea of the passage? A.Well begun is half done. B.More haste, less speed. C.Failure is the mother of success. D.Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. |

D Dear Michelle, My mother is not a good example for me and my sister. She smokes, stays out late, and she curses(骂人).I love her but I am ashamed of her.I do not want to bring my friends home because she does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home and study. I wish I could live in another family that was normal,but it will be 5 years before I am 18 and legal. What am I supposed to do until then? Prisoner of a Crazy House Dear 7th Grader, I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feeings about her may change as you get older and mature(成熟). While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the fact that you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are a winner,not a loser. I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is a good thing, So,keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits. At the same time,try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities. Offer social service on weekends and visit your friends at their homes. Unfortunately, you are not alone.Many teens live in homes with immature,misguided, selfish parents. Those kids often feel lonely and separate from the rest of their friends because of their parents’ terrible deeds. But they develop good friendships with nice kids, do well in school,and often find a teacher or guidance advisor who makes all the difference! Do it, Miss Winning 13 years old, and keep looking forward to your own fine future.Maybe by then your mother may even see the light and realize how surprising you really are. Best luck! Michelle 64.The kid asks for advice on how to___________. A.make her mother change B.deal with her situation C.get along well with her mother D.start a new family 65.Michelle doesn’t address her letter receiver as“Prisoner of a Crazy House”possibly because she __________.
