【题目】It was at her company’s annual picnic that my mother met my father, and he walked her home. The next week, from his home in Chicago, he sent her a post card: Remember me please. Do be calling you one of these days.—David.
She still has that post card. I am not sure what made her save. Though he already had his heart set on her, she hadn't chosen him yet, at least not consciously.
My father, a salesman for a big electronics company, often told us while we were growing up, it was blind luck that he was at the picnic that day. He was in town to meet with clients and happened to stop by the branch office that Saturday morning to make a call. It was the manager of a local radio station where my mother worked as a writer. “Dave! Glad you’re in town!” he said, and invited him to come right over to their annual picnic. Later my mother dated him when he was in town. Eventually, one night a few months later, she woke her mother and told her she was going to marry Dave. A few months after the wedding, my father was transferred east. They settled in New York, in the house where I grew up.
Sometimes I think how time gets us together and puts us in a certain place where we’re faced with one option or another. We leave behind while others live by the choice we made. We could have lived full of different passions and joys, different problems and disappointments. Sometimes, particularly when I came home late to a sleeping house, my husband and daughter curled around each other. I think about the lives we would not have had if choices had brought us to a different place. And I tremble at the thought that I might have missed this life, this man, this child, this love.
【1】According to the text, where did the author’s parents come across?
A. At the author’s home. B. At a local radio station.
C. At her father’s company’s picnic. D. At her mother’s company’s picnic.
【2】It can be inferred from the text that ________.
A. the author’s father didn’t like her mother
B. the author’s mother always made right decisions
C. the author didn’t believe her mother
D. the author’s mother hadn’t decided to marry her father at first
【3】Before meeting the author's father, her mother was ________.
A. a writer B. a manager C. a teacher D. a saleswoman
【4】What do we know about the author?
A. She values her life now.
B. Time makes her life now perfect.
C. She is tired of her life now.
D. Her life now faces problems and disappointments.

【题目】I learn to fly in a balloon in a race across the Atlantic Ocean in 1992 and became extremely interested in the sport. In the same way that a mountain climber dreams of climbing the world's highest mountain,I dreamed about flying non-stop around the world.
I spent six years planning the flight and failed twice before I and my team managed to succeed. For some reason,we had to go first to North Africa to catch the right winds. That added 10 ,000 kilometers,and another week,to our journey. But because of this,our flight broke all the records for distance and time spent in the air.
The most memorable part of the trip for me is that we lived in the air for 20 days and that the rising sun was the most amazing thing we saw. We had to go out of the balloon’s capsule , in which we were transported,three times while in the air to repair the fuel system. We didn’t have any safety equipment but when you are in a situation like that,you just do what you have to do without thinking about feeling afraid.
Landing was a fantastic moment. I remember that when I got out of the capsule,I looked at my footprint in the sand. I remembered the astronaut Neil Armstrong,who was so happy to put his footprint on the moon,so far away from Earth. At that moment, I was so happy to have my foot back on Earth!
【1】The author became interested in ballooning because of .
A. a cross-ocean race

A. They set a new record.
B. They shortened their flight.
C. Their flight went very smoothly.
D. Their flight covered 10,000 kilometers.
【3】Why did the balloonists get out of the capsule during the flight?

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。 August 2011 was my last month before the departure to Beijing. But I didn’t know that August would bring me an unforgettable meeting with one of the famous traditional Chinese kungfu masters, Sui Yunjiang. He came to my city with a series of conferences and was to stay for a fortnight. I was asked to be his interpreter and had to accompany him and his wife during all that time, as well as Viktor who was the organizer and the host.
According to the Chinese tradition, we called Sui Yunjiang master Sui shifu or Sui laoshi. His personality impressed me deeply. Maybe it was a fate(yuanfen), or something other, but it was not the first time I heard his name, since he used to come to my town every two years, mostly in August. However, I never saw him in person, nor did the translation for him. I lacked knowledge in wushu, but the master was very patient trying to explain to me every single word that I couldn’t comprehend. He was already in his sixties at that time, but, giving credit to his sharp mind, he could find a way with the youngest disciples(门徒) as well as the older ones. The two weeks that I had spent with that amazing family inspired me and I continued my kungfu practices in Beijing.
During all these three years now that I have known him since our first meeting, he never stopped surprising me with his strong, yet sensitive personality. Our lessons go far beyond simply learning kungfu technics. His teaching is more about life, about enjoying every single moment of it because it will not happen twice, about training our will and overcoming difficulties, about harmonious existence, and building relationships with other people. After every kungfu lesson, we are welcome into his house to drink tea. This is another lesson being taught — the mastery of chadao, or tea ceremony.
Miracles are everywhere. For me, a miracle is meeting Sui Yunjiang. I love being a journalist, interviewing and writing about people from different paths of life, but Sui laoshi is the only person who made such a strong impression on me.
(1)How did the writer meet Sui Yunjiang?
A.By being asked to be his interpreter.
B.By travelling in China.
C.By interviewing Chinese kungfu masters.
D.By discussing how to drink tea.
(2)The underlined phrase in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ____________.
A.privately
B.mentally
C.personally
D.physically
(3)Which of the following best describes Sui Yunjiang?
A.Talented and productive.
B.Serious and boring.
C.Famous and unhappy.
D.Patient and friendly.
(4)From the last paragraph we can learn that____________.
A.miracles are everywhere
B.meeting Sui Yunjiang is unforgettable
C.being a journalist is the writer’s dream
D.the writer loves writing stories about life
(5)Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A.Meeting the Master
B.Being a Journalist
C.An Unforgettable Experience
D.Chinese Kungfu Masters
