    When my wife left this world, I chose to travel in Antigua looking for a peaceful place to rest my old body. Not quite old and weak, I felt I wanted something more than the usual hotel room with 24-hour room service.

    I decided this year to try something completely new and booked myself a private holiday home in Antigua. This was the best decision I had ever made, as there was plenty to do, plenty to see and lots of lovely restaurants to visit. There was a private swimming pool, and a cool, wide yard where I ate my breakfast most mornings.

    Antigua has to be one of the loveliest places on earth to spend a holiday. The bright blue sea and the endless blue around the beach areas proved to be an excellent place for me to spend the long afternoons.

    I had to hurry to do what I wanted to do before the holiday came to an end. I managed to visit the Sugar Mill and Shirley Heights on my last two days and yet found myself wondering whether I could extend for a few more days.

    I rented a boat and came home after a day’s sailing, refreshed, looking forward to dinner. Everything is so pleasant on these beautiful islands, swept by the trade winds and warmed by the sun for so many summer months. The food just tasted better to me, perhaps because I was having such a great holiday. There was always someone to have a drink with---- that’s what I liked most.

    1.Which of the following statements is NOT mentioned about the private holiday home the writer stayed in?

    A. It had a private swimming pool.

    B. There were lots of restaurants near it.

    C. The writer often had breakfast in its yard.

    D. It supplied delicious seafood to the writer.

    2.The word “extend” in Paragraph 4 probably means “______”.

    A. make something last longer

    B. make you feel happy

    C. prevent from entering

    D. sell goods to foreign countries

    3.The most important reason for the writer to travel in Antigua was ______.

    A. there was bright blue sea

    B. there was endless blue sky

    C. there were lots of lovely restaurants

    D. there were many people to drink with

    4.The passage is most likely to be taken from a part of ______.

    A. a tour guide B. a travel diary

    C. a student’s report D. a health report

    Choose the best answer (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案) ：（12分）

    It was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever imagined attending. I opened the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word "congratulations". I don't remember ever smiling so wide. But then I found that the cost of Dream School's tuition（学费）was around $ 40,000——an impossible amount ! How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition? My other choices were good, solid schools even if they weren't as famous as my first choice.

    In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a world-class writer. My parents understood how l felt. They told me that even though it would be a financial（金融的）problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, l wasn't sure what to do.

    One of the schools that offered me had an informational dinner, one night in the spring. Considering my parents' financial difficulties, l decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend. At first, all I had planned to do was smile politely, eat free food, listen quietly. But I surprised myself at dinner. The president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus including guest lectures and social gatherings. He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on campus. As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed care the students. As the president ended his speech, I realized that I would be spending the next four years fighting there.

    To be frank, my university is not as well-known as my " dream" university. However, it turned out to be the right choice of schools for me.

    1.In the sixth line, the underlined word solid means “____”.

    A. strong and hard B. good but special

    C. common and cheap D. expensive but friendly

    2.My ambition is to become ___.

    A. a scientist B. a president C. a writer D. a professor

    A. The location of the university

    B. The offers from three other colleges

    C. The cost of the tuition

    D. The activities organized on campus

    4.At the informational dinner party, the president left me deep impression by ____.

    A. offering me free food and free events

    B. his intelligence and politeness

    C. showing me a bright future

    D. his explanation of the university

    5.I made up my mind after the president’s speech because ____

    A. the university has a very long history and is very large.

    B. there are many famous professors teaching in the university

    C. the university is just as well-known as my first choice.
