A
William Butler Yeats, a famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on June 13,1865.His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his family — both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama (戏剧) and poetry.
Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s.His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.
Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats’s poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.
He had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produced his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 70. He died in 1939, aged 73.
1.Which of the following can describe Yeats’s family
A. It filled Yeats’s childhood with laughter. B. It was shocked by Yeats’s choice.
C. It was a typically wealthy family. D. It had an artistic atmosphere.
2.According to the passage, which is NOT TRUE about Yeats’s poems
A. The theme of his poems includes love, nature, history, time and aging.
B. His poems catch more attention than his dramatic works.
C. His poems only receive recognition in Ireland.
D. His poems carried traditional forms and modern sensibility.
3.Where is the text most probably taken from
A.A travel guide. B.A literary journal. C.A science book. D.A health magazine.
4.What is the passage mainly about
A. Yeats’s literary achievements. B. Yeats’s historical influence.
C. Yeats’ s artistic ambition. D. Yeats’s national honor.
B
Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report.
While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.
According to the report’s key findings, “the proportion (比例) who say they ‘hardly ever’ read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”
The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2-8,remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.
When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel (建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.
The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.
As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom (逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.
5.What is the Common Sense Media report probably about
A. Children’s reading habits. B. Quality of children’s books.
C. Children’s after-class activities. D. Parent-child relationships.
6.Where can you find the data that best supports “children are reading a lot less for fun”
A. In paragraph 2. B. In paragraph 3. C. In paragraph 4. D. In paragraph 5.
7.Why do many parents limit electronic reading
A.E-books are of poor quality. B. It could be a waste of time.
C. It may harm children’s health. D.E-readers are expensive.
8.How should parents encourage their children to read more
A. By acting as role models for them. B. By asking them to write book reports.
C. By setting up reading groups for them. D. By talking with their reading class teachers.
C
Little Women is the best-known work of author Louisa May Alcott. Published after the end of the Civil War, the book is about the lives of the author and her sisters. Although it was her most successful work, it was not her first.
Alcott began writing at the age of 20, when she published her poem “Sunlight”. Throughout her early career, she wrote many poems and short stories for magazines. At the age of 22, she began to write fairy tales, romantic thrillers, and other novels, mostly to earn money. At a time when few opportunities were open to women, Alcott supported women’s right to work. With her small income, she had long provided for her family.
When the Civil War broke out, Alcott, at the age of 30,joined the war effort to fight against slavery. She had originally wished to serve as a soldier. However, women were not allowed in battle at that time. As a result, she became a Civil War nurse. Alcott’s work as a nurse served as a milestone (里程碑) in her writing career.
In December of 1862,she left New England to work in the Union Hotel Hospital in Washington, DC. There were few supplies, and doctors performed operations without painkillers. The conditions for patients and doctors were terrible. Within a few weeks, Alcott herself became so ill that she nearly died. She returned home and recovered slowly over a period of months.
As soon as her health improved, Alcott started a new project. The letters she had sent home became the basis of a newspaper series about her experiences as a Civil War nurse. She wrote about her tasks, the wounded soldiers she looked after, and the difficulties they faced. The series, Hospital Sketches, was a success, which received praise from readers and critics at the same time. Although her best-known work was yet to come, the success of Hospital Sketches marked the achievement of her dream to become a popular author.
9.In her early 20s, Alcott wrote mostly to .
A. make money to support her family B. fight against slavery
C. remember her experiences in the war D. set up a milestone in her career
10.Why were Alcott’s experiences as a nurse important to her writing
A. Because she saved many wounded soldiers.
B. Because she almost lost her life in the hospital.
C. Because she won the right to fight against slavery.
D. Because she got many materials for her later book.
11.What can we know about Alcott from the last two paragraphs
A. Her hospital was well equipped.
B. She didn’t return to the hospital after recovery.
C. She wrote letters for a newspaper.
D. No one thought badly of her Hospital Sketches.

5.A 推理判断题。关于题干提到的这份报告,第二、三段说孩子们的趣味性阅读减少了,几乎不进行趣味性阅读的人数增加了,第五、六段提到电子书的阅读以及父母的榜样作用,从这些信息推断,这份报告研究的内容是孩子们的阅读习惯,因此选A项。

10.D 细节理解题。由最后一段可知,作为一名战地护士的经历,为她后期作品的创作积攒了重要的素材,才使得《医院速写》获得了成功。据此推断奥尔科特当护士的经历对她的写作很重要是因为她为以后所写的书准备了很多的素材。故D项正确。
