【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
The Man of Many Secrets — Harry Houdini — was one of the greatest American entertainers(表演者) in the theater. He was a man famous for his escapes(逃走;逃生) — from prison cells(囚室), from wooden boxes floating(漂浮) in rivers, from locked tanks full of water. He appeared in theaters all over Europe and America. Crowds came to see the great Houdini and his “magic” tricks.
Of course, his secret was not magic, or supernatural powers. It was simply strength. He had the ability to move his toes as well as his fingers. He could move his body into almost any position he wanted.[来源:]
Houdini started working in the entertainment world when he was 17, in 1891. He and his brother Theo performed card tricks in club in New York. They called themselves the Houdini Brothers. When Harry married in 1894, he and his wife Bess worked together as magician and assistant. But for a long time they were not very successful. Then Harry performed his first prison (监狱)escape in Chicago in 1898. Harry persuaded(说服) a detective(侦探) which to let him try to escape from the prison, and he invited the local newspapermen to watch.
It was the publicity(宣传) that came from this that started Harry Houdini's success. Harry had fingers trained to escape from handcuffs(手铐) and toes trained to escape ankle chains. But his biggest secret was how he unlocked the prison doors. Every time he went into the prison cell, Bess gave him a kiss for good luck — and a small skeleton key, which is a key that fits many locks, pass quickly from her mouth to his.
Harry used these prison escapes to build his fame. He arranged to escape from the local prison of every town he visited. In the afternoon, the people of the town would read about it in their local newspapers, and in the evening every seat in the local theater would be full. What was the result? Worldwide fame, and a name remembered today.
(1)According to the passage, Houdini's success in prison escapes depends on ________.
A.his special tricks and supernatural powers
B.his unusual ability and a skeleton key
C.his magic tricks and inhuman powers
D.his wisdom and magic tricks
(2)In the fourth paragraph, the underlined word “this” refers to (指的是)______.
A.his first prison escape
B.the year 1898
C.the publicity
D.Harry Houdini's success
(3)Which of the following statement is right?
A.Someone gave him a key that fits many locks.
B.He made a key that could open every door.
C.Everyone hated him very much.
D.He was trained to escape again.
(4)The followings help him succeed EXCEPT ________.
A.his brother's help
B.his wife's help
C.his fingers
D.his toes
(5)Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.A Skeleton Key
B.Many Secrets
C.World-wide Fame
D.Great Escapes

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
One little miracle (奇迹) has been happening to me recently, and it gives me a special joy.
A few months ago, I was telling my daughter, Sally, some stories about my mother. My daughter was so young when my mother died that she doesn't remember her well. I told her all I could remember, like how wonderful my mother was and how much she meant to me.
One day, Sally was sad because her grandmother was in heaven (天堂) and she couldn't see her. I explained that though her grandmother was dead, now she was still watching over us and could send us something to let us know she was there. She could be anywhere, even riding invisibly (看不见地) on the back of a butterfly. Just after I said this, a butterfly flew down right by us, and we laughed happily.
Now many people would say it was just luck that the butterfly flew down at that time. A funny thing, however, has happened since then. Every time I go out in any type of weather I see butterflies. Very often they fly right by my face to get my attention. I always say hi to Mum, send her my love, and thank God for little miracles.
Everyone is always looking for some big miracles to come out and save them when they are in trouble, but they don't notice the little miracles that happen every day right in front of their eyes. I know what they really are, however. For me little miracles are the best kind. So many little miracles happen around me all the time that I know they are not just luck.
(1)When her grandmother died, Sally was .
A.at school
B.quite young
C.in trouble
D.not at home
(2)One day Sally was sad because .
A.her mother told her a sad story
B.she argued with her grandmother
C.she couldn't see her grandmother
D.her grandmother sent her nothing special
(3)What does the underlined word “they” refer to(指代)?
A.Everyone.
B.Butterflies.
C.Grandparents.
D.Little miracles.
(4)Which can be the BEST title for this passage?
A.Butterflies and miracles
B.Sally's grandmother
C.Miracles are nowhere
D.A funny thing happened to Sally
