    【题目】 Since it first opened after four years of construction in 1937 at a cost of $27 million，the Golden Gate Bridge has made its appearance in films and poetry.

    CNN Travel spent a day climbing into and ground the bridge，learning these secrets from the people who know and love it best.

    Why is it called the Golden Gate Bridge?It’s not golden.

    “The Golden Gate Bridge gets its name because it spans what is called the Golden Gate Strait，”said Paolo Cosulich-Schwartz，spokesman for the Golden Gate Bridge，Highway and Transportation District，which operates the bridge. It’s a three-mile-long and one-mile-wide body of water that connects the Pacific Ocean to the San Francisco Bay.

    What color is the bridge?It looks red.

    “It’s not red，although you’re not crazy to think so. Visitors all call it red，”said Russell. “Back in the day，the US Navy，then part of the War Department，oversaw the waterways and wanted to paint this bridge black and yellow for high visibility，”said fellow painter Jarrod Bauer. “They ended up mixing paint to create the color International Orange，which is similar to the color of red lead，”he said.

    Does the bridge get entirely painted every year?

    No，and it doesn’t need to be. It’s true that the top coat has been fully repainted over time with new and environmentally-improved International Orange top coats.

    Who performs bridge rescues?

    McVeigh and his fellow ironworkers，the so—called“Cowboys of the Sky”，have that responsibility. McVeigh has lost count of how many troubled souls he’s been called to rescue over the past 17 years.

    In September in 2018，the bridge started constructing a suicide(自杀)prevention system，also known as the safety net，to keep people from jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge. It’s expected to be completed in 2021.

    【1】What’s the true color of the Golden Gate Bridge?

    A.Red.B.Red lead.

    C.Black and yellow.D.International Orange.

    【2】Who can probably be called a hero on the Golden Gate Bridge?

    A.McVeigh.B.Jarrod Bauer.

    C.Russell.D.Paolo.

    【3】What can we know about the Golden Gate Bridge?

    A.It is safer now because of the safety net.

    B.It got its name because of its color.

    C.It took much time and money to be built.

    D.It needs to be repainted once a year.

    【题目】 It was Mother’s Day, but I knew there would be no celebration for me. I was a mother of a very active two-year-old and my husband was a Captain of a Navy ship. That morning I had been up early and had already taken several phone calls from both Navy wives and other people needing to be comforted. After one phone call, I leaned back in my chair, and said, “Dear God, I am hustling to be a blessing to others, but what about me? Is there anything for me today?”

    At that very moment the telephone rang. It was the voice of a little girl who said, “Miss Stephanie I’ve been thinking of you!” It took my breath away! I had known this girl from another city, but at that moment it was to me the voice of God! I greatly valued the thoughtfulness of the little one and her family who knew my husband was out. But even greater than their kindness, I felt deeply touched by the timing of the call and felt that precious voice spoke to me of God’s great love for me.

    There have been many Mother’s Days since that one, but none so special, so deeply moving, so tenderly comforting. I will never forget the feel of knowing how loved I was, and that I would never be forgotten.

    In the United States and elsewhere, Mother’s Day has become synonymous（与…同义）with lots of human expectations. If we’re not careful, the fulfillment of these clichés can become a false standard for feeling loved, and a heavy burden on our family. When I think of that Mother’s Day long ago, tears come to my eyes, but not out of sadness. I rejoice（庆幸）in the profound love and caring I felt and still feel to this day. This experience helps me see that love hugs everyone, and that makes my heart sing for us all!

    【1】How did the writer feel after comforting others on Mother’s Day?

    A.Comfortable.B.Disappointed.

    C.Anxious.D.Energetic.

    【2】What conclusion can we draw from the last paragraph?

    A.Mother’s Day has become not so important in the United States.

    B.The fulfillment of human expectations will never be a heavy burden.

    C.The writer was always moved to tears on every Mother’s Day.

    D.That Mother’s Day long ago had a positive influence on the writer’s life.

    【3】What can be a suitable title for the passage?

    A.A Call from a Little Girl.

    B.A Memorable Mother’s Day.

    C.God’s Great Love for Everyone.

    D.A Mother’s Day Long Time Ago.
