阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项.
A
Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.
Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life.”It opens your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfortable zone,” Wegscheider said. She has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.
In foreign countries , with no one to help you read a map, look after you when you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.
Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the place you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old man. Richardson describes traveling alone as “a shot in the arm” , which makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything. He said, “The feeling of having conquered(征服)something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I am dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know that nothing is impossible if you try.”
The great 19th century explorer John Muir said, “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”
Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?
A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.
B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.
C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.
D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.
Traveling alone is challenging because______
A. you have to make things on your own.
B. It is hard for to prove yourself to others.
C. You can only depend on yourself whatever happens.
D. It will finally build your character.
What can we infer(推出) about Chris Richardson?
A. He started traveling alone at an early age.
B. He was once shot in the arm.
C. He used to work as a salesman.
D. His website inspired others a lot.
B
How to bring nature to your school---in a big way!
Interested in building a schoolyard habitat(生物园)？Here’s how to get started.
Gather a team
Students can do a lot on their own, but you will need adults for a project this big. Get teachers, parents, and even the headmaster interested. Don’t forget the maintenance(维护) staff---they know more about your school’s yard than anyone else and can give you lots of help.
Map your site
Which part of the schoolyard can you turn into a habitat? Is there an unused corner of the playground? You will need to make a map of the area showing what’s there now. Then you can figure out how you want to change it. For that, you need a plan.
Plan a habitat
Here’s what you will need to make your area attractive to wildlife.
Food: Plant flowers and trees. These provide foods for birds, insects, and small animals. You can also add some feeders for squirrels and birds. Where possible, stick with native plants----wild plants that grow naturally in your area. They need less care, which means less work for you.
Water: A small pond, birdbath, or even a dish of clean water in the ground will attract birds.
Shelter: Trees make great escapes for birds. Tall grass and “weeds” are home to grasshoppers (蝗虫) and some birds. You can also add stones piles(堆)。
Places to Raise Young: Butterflies(蝴蝶) need specials plants to lay their eggs on. Frogs lay eggs only in water. Many birds use birdhouses; others nest in trees. In fact, nearly all your shelters may become homes for wild young.
Reach for resources
To make the habitat happen, you will need lots of plants, seeds, and other supplies. You will also need to buy or borrow tools and maybe even some heavy equipment. Now’s the time to reach out for donations, Start by asking your parent-teacher organization. Then go to garden clubs, garden stores (they might give you a discount), local government agencies, and businesses. If they can not donate supplies or money, ask if they can donate workers!
Build your design
Now you can dig in. Set a date, and get growing!
24.What is this text mainly about?
A. How to start a schoolyard habitat. B. How to gather food for a wildlife habitat.
C. How to make a place where animals can hide. D. How to create places for people to plant gardens.
25. The section “Plan a habitat” is mostly about ＿＿＿.
A. how to find people to work on the habitat B. how to find a place to use for the habitat
C. how to attract wildlife to the habitat D. how to raise money for the habitat
26. Which of the following would you do to “Reach for resources”?
A. Find a location. B. Ask for donations. C. Plant flowers and trees. D. Talk to maintenance staff.
27. The text is organized by＿＿＿
A. giving step-by- step instructions. B. listing both sides on an argument.
C. telling a story, from beginning to end. D. listing facts, from most to least important.
C
I was walking into the office yesterday, minding my own business, when all of a sudden I turned the corner and there it was, sitting on my chair. “Oh, my God,” I said surprisedly, “Zucchini(西葫芦).” “Is not that nice?” said Rachel, my workmate. “Someone left it for everyone!”
Have you ever noticed how someone actually gives you zucchini? At least, not in the same way they give you corn or apples or tomatoes. I mean, if someone wants to give you a few fresh, juicy peaches off their tree, they walk right up and hand them to you. You will be pleased. It seems that they have confidence you will like their gift. But with zucchini, they left it and went away. No note. No calling card. I thought zucchini is the abandoned orphan(被遗弃的孤儿）of the vegetable kingdom.
“Yeah, it is nice,” I said. “Who should we thank for this gift?” “I don’t know,” Rachel said. “You know how it is with zucchini.” Of course I do. Nobody actually grows it. At least, not on purpose. It just grows like weeds(野草）. “So what are you going to do with yours?” I asked. “I will just do what I always do with zucchini,” she said.
This morning I stepped into my office area carefully, afraid of what might be there waiting for me. There was a piece of bread in a white box sitting on my desk. I picked it up. It smelled wonderful. I took a bite. It tasted wonderful. “Who made the banana bread?” I asked. Rachel said, “It is not banana bread. It is delicious! But I hate zucchini.”
“So do I,” Rachel admitted. “But a few years ago I found this great way to cook zucchini bread, and now I actually look forward to zucchini season.”
I took another bite of the bread. I could not help wondering: “How could anything so tasty come from something so distasteful?”
“It is a fact of life,” Rachel said. “You mix effort with creativity and you can turn almost anything around.”
28. What happened to the author yesterday?
A. She found a zucchini on her office chair. B. She shared vegetables with her workmates.
C. She made zucchini bread for everyone. D. She harvested the tomatoes she grew.
29. Paragraph 2 is mainly about ＿＿＿.
A. the author’s thoughts upon receiving zucchini
B. a discussion between workmates.
C. the way of making zucchini bread
D. the author’s earlier memory of zucchini
30.We can learn from the underlined sentence that the author＿＿＿
A. was afraid of receiving any gift B. disliked the zucchini at first
C. knew who gave her the zucchini D. got angry when she saw the zucchini again
31. How did the author think of the zucchini bread?
A. Traditional B. Unhealthy C. Wonderful D. Just so-so
D
When I was a little girl growing up in the 1940s,we didn’t have much.
The Great Depression(经济大萧条）had hit just about everyone, and we were just climbing out of it. My dad had a job at a factory, and Mom stayed at home with the kids. Mom was pretty good with the sewing machine(缝纫机).When World War II came, Mom got a job sewing clothes for the soldiers. The money helped, and by the time I was in my teens in the late 1950s we had enough to get a new TV set.
It was black and white, but we were glued to it. I decided around that time I didn’t want to work in a factory or sew like my mom had. I wanted to go to college. A girl wanting a career at that time raised some eyebrows(眉毛).Worse still, I wanted to be a lawyer(律师).But my parents told me that they would support me in any way they could. Fortunately, I worked hard at school and got a scholarship(奖学金).It wasn’t easy, but a few years I was a lawyer.
At first I had no idea what I could do. But in the late 1960s I knew I could use my education and spirit to help my nation. I took a job as a civil rights attorney(民权律师). That’s where I met your grandpa. He believed in the same things I did and still do. When your mom came along, I took a year off but went right back to work. We were able to afford a color TV and, like me, your mom was glued to it. She had a great interest not in the programs, but how the things worked. I guess I knew from the time she was watching “Sesame Street” that she would also take a path that was not normally taken by woman. She became an electrician.
How was the author’s early childhood?
Difficult B. Unhappy C. Busy D. Lonely
What made the author want to go to college?
A. Her parents’ support. B. The influence of the TV.
C. The stories of great people. D. Her painful work experiences.
What do the author and her daughter have in common?
A. Both love to dream. B. Both do unusual jobs.
C. Both were home-schooled. D. Both were interested in TV programs.
To whom does the author write the text?
A. Her mother. B. Her husband. C. Her daughter. D. Her grandchild.
