There I sat, 21 enough to be a father to most of the students in the room, 22 unconfident enough to be their baby brother. We were crowded elbow (肘部) to elbow, listening to a 23 who looked even younger than the students. I felt uncomfortable and out of place as the professor carefully 24 what she expected us to learn. As I listened, I couldn"t help but 25 of my own oldest daughter who was now beginning her first year in 26 , just like me. I remembered how hard I had tried to help build self-confidence in her and my other children. So why did I suddenly feel like a scared 27 myself"? When I walked out of that classroom, I had serious 28 about my ability to make it 29 college. Not until late that night did my thinking 30 .It was a long-distance 31 from my daughter, my fellow college freshman, that did the trick. She spoke on the phone about the doubts, worries and anxieties she was 32 . She was certain that she"d never 33 at college. How 34 her worries sounded! In my most confident parental 35 , I said, “Doing your best is all the world 36 .” The next day in class, those words still repeated in my head. When the professor raised a 37 for the class, nobody, including me, 38 to answer. When I looked around al the 39 and uncertainty on the young faces in that room, I knew 40 what I had to do: my best. That"s all the world asks. So I raised my hand, and the professor called my name. I spoke. 21. A. big B. tall C. old D. strong 22. A. and B. so C. or D. yet 23.

C Among the more colorful characters of Leadville’s golden age were H.A.W. Tabor and his second wife, Elizabeth McCourt, better known as "Baby Doe". Their history is fast becoming one of the legends of the Old West. Horace Austin Warner Tabor was a school teacher in Vermont. With his first wife and two children he left Vermont by covered wagon in 1855 to homestead in Kansas. Perhaps he did not find farming to his liking, or perhaps he was attracted by rumors of fortunes to be made in Colorado mines. At any rate, a few years later he moved west to the small Colorado mining camp known as California Gulch, which he later renamed Leadville when he became its leading citizen. "A large amount of lead is sure to be found here." he said. As it turned out, it was silver, not lead, that was to make Leadville’s fortune and wealth. Tabor knew little about mining himself, so he opened a general store, which sold everything from boots to salt, flour, and tobacco. It was his custom to "grubstake" prospective(预期的) miners, in other words, to supply them with food and supplies, or"grub", while they looked for ore(矿石), in return for which he would get a share in the mine if one was discovered. He did this for a number of years, but no one that he aided ever found anything of value. Finally one day in the year 1878, so the story goes, two miners came in and asked for "grub". Tabor had decided to quit supplying it because he had lost too much money that way. These were persistent(坚持的), however, and Tabor was too busy to argue with them. "Oh help yourself. One more time won’t make any difference," He said and went on selling shoes and hats to other customers. The two miners took $17 worth of supplies, in return for which they gave Tabor a one-third interest in their findings. They picked a barren place on the mountainside and began to dig. After nine days they struck a rich vein of silver. Tabor bought the shares of the other two men, and so the mine belonged to him alone. This mine, known as the "Pittsburgh Mine," made $1,300, 000 for Tabor in return for his $17 investment. Later Tabor bought the Matchless Mine on another barren hillside just outside the town for $117,000.This turned out to be even more abundant than the Pittsburgh, producing $35 000 worth of silver per day at one time. Leadville grew. Tabor became its first mayor, and later became the governor of the state. 49. The word "grubstake" in paragraph 2 means __________ . A. to supply miners with food and supplies B. to open a general store C. to do one’s contribution to the development of the mine D. to supply miners with food and supplies and in return get a share in the mine, if one was discovered 50.Tabor made his first fortune_________. A. by supplying two prospective miners and getting in return a one-third interest in the findings B. because he was persuaded by the two miners to quit supplying C. by buying the shares of the other D. as a land speculator(投机商) 51. The underlying(潜在的)reason for Tabor’s successful life career is __________. A. purely accidental B. based on the analysis of miner’s being very poor and their possibility of discovering profitable mining site C. through the help from his second wife D. he planned well and accomplished targets step by step 52. If this passage is the first part of an article, who might be introduced in the following part? A. Tabor’s life. B. Tabor’s second wife, Elizabeth McCourt. C. Other colorful characters. D. Tabor’s other careers. |

第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题,每题2分,满分40分) 阅读下列短文,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涂黑。 A Part one: First Major Novels If Dickens had remained the author of Pickwick, Oliver Twist, and The Old Curiosity Shop, he might have gained lasting fame only as an author of cheerful comedy. But Dombey and Son, published in 1846 and continued till 1848, is a realistic novel of human life in a society which had taken more or less its modern form. The novel is a study of the influence of the values of a business society n the members of the Dombey family. Part two: In 1851 Dickens was struck by the death of his father and one of his daughters within 2 weeks. Partly in response to these losses, he created a series of works which have come to be called his “dark” novels and which rank among the greatest success of the art of fiction. Par three: Later Works In 1859 Dickens published A Tale of Two Cities, a historical novel of the French Revolution, which is read today most often as a school text. It is fine picture of the historical period and a moving tale of a surprisingly modern hero. Besides publishing this novel in the lately founded All the Year Round, Dickens also published 17 articles, which appeared as a book later. Dickens’s next novel, Great Expectations(1860~1861), tells the story of a young man’s moral(道德的)development in the course of his life-from childhood in the provinces to gentleman’s role in London. Not based on his own life like David Copperfield, Great Expectations belongs to type of fiction called, in German, Bildungsroman (the novel of a man’s education or formation by experience.) 56.Which of the following Dickens’ novel shows a clear change of style? A.David Copperfield B.Pickwick C.Dombey and Son D.Oliver Twist 57.The best title for Part two might be . A.Unexpected deaths B.Dark novels C.Great losses D.The art of fiction 58.According to the passage, A Tale of Two Cities . A.is about the Industry Revolution B.can be found in most of the textbooks C.is better than his “dark” novels D.is probably published in a new magazine 59.In Great Expectation, Dickens writes about . A.the growth of a man B.how to become a gentleman C.his own life experience D.a man’s school education |
C After watching my mother deal with our family of five, I can’t understand why answer to the question, “What do you do?” is always, “Oh, I’m just a housewife.” JUST a housewife?” Anyone who spends most of her time in meal preparation and cleanup, keeping the house clean, attending PTA meetings, leading a scout troop, playing taxi driver to us kids when it’s time for school, musical lessons or the dentist, doing volunteer work for her community is not just a housewife. She’s the real Wonder Woman. Why is it that so many mothers like mine think of themselves as second.class or something similar? Where has this notion come from? Have we males made them feel this way? Has our society made“going to work” outside the home seem more important than what a housewife must face each day? I would be every curious to see what would happen if a housewife went on strike.Dishes would pie up.Food in the house would run out.There would be no learn clothes when needed.Walking and bus riding would increase. I doubt if the man of the house would be able to take over.Oh,he would probably start out with the attitude that he can do just as good a job,but how long would that last? Not 1ong, once he had to come home each night after work to more housework. There would be no coming home to a prepared meal; The kids would all be screaming for something to eat, clean clothes and more bus fare money. Once he quieted the kids, he’d have to clean the house, go shopping, make sure that kids got a bath, after clearing out all the dog hairs from the bathtub. Once the kids were down for the night, he might be able to craw(爬)into an unmade bed and try to read the morning newspaper. 64.What does the writer’s mother NOT do according to the first paragraph? A.Cooking. B.Tidying the house. C.Driving a taxi. D.Some unpaid work. 65.The underlined word “notion” in the second paragraph can be replaced by the word . A.mother B.citizen C.similarity D.thought 66.We can learn from the second paragraph . A.mothers are actually great women B.our society looks down upon housewives C.housewives should go on a strike D.doing housework is not important at all 67.The possible main idea of the third paragraph is . A.men should share housework with their wives B.attitude is not the only thing needed to do a job well C.kids are the most challenging part of the housework D.men are unlikely to handle the work of a housewife |
