Our school has had a survey on reading. It shows that 55 percent the students spend our time reading textbooks after the school. Only 10 percent enjoy read literature. Why are so many students unwilling to read serious works? According to the survey, they have no enough time because they have too many homework to do. Some complain that literary works are so thick that they have hardly enough patient to finish it. Others who only concentrates on how to get high scores simply admit that reading literature won’t help them at all with their exams. What’s more, some students show no interest in literature. In fact, books play important role in our life. Not only can reading make us relaxing, but also it can help us to learn customs and culture in the past and at present at home and abroad.

【题目】It was about 11:15 pm on the passenger ship California. The night was freezing cold and the water was filled with ice from the North Pole, making it difficult for the ship to sail on.

In the radio room, ship California’s operator Cyril Evans listened to the radio-talk between a nearby passenger ship and the telegraph station on the Canadian island of Newfoundland. Evans interrupted it and said, “We’re stopped and surrounded by ice. Be careful as you pass through these waters.” The radio operator on the nearby ship replied, “I’m too busy to talk now. I have many messages to send to the telegraph station. Twenty minutes later, as he turned off his radio and went to bed, Evans could still hear the ship sending its passengers’ telegrams.

Earlier in the evening the California’s captain, Stanley Lord, had seen another ship approaching. It looked about the size of his own, but attempts to contact the ship failed. It lay dark and mysterious about 10 miles away. At 00:40 am there appeared a sudden flash of light just over the mystery ship. Captain Lord, thinking the ship might need help, ordered his officers to signal the ship by lamp. There was no reply. Three more rockets then exploded, none appeared to go higher than halfway up the mast(桅杆)of the mystery ship. Then at about 2:00 am it turned and slipped into the darkness.

In the light of the dawn there was no mystery ship, but 20 miles away was the scene of a great disaster. Unfortunately, the mystery ship had stopped directly in front of the California, preventing people on board from seeing clearly. If this ship had not been there, Captain Lord would have recognized that the rockets were SOS rockets that came not from the mystery ship but from a more distant ship which the California could not see. If Cyril Evans had kept his radio on for just 30 minutes more he would have heard SOS signals coming from that distant ship he spoke with the night before. That ship was the Titanic which was sinking fast, leaving 1,500 of its passengers dead. It was April 14, 1912.

【1】Why were the rockets really fired?

A. To celebrate the journey.

B. To signal for help.

C. To contact the Titanic.

D. To warn other ships.

【2】What is the main function of the last paragraph of this passage?

A. It shows how unlucky the Titanic was.

B. It describes how the Titanic sank.

C. It indicates that the people on the California were careless.

D. It lists how many people died in the disaster.

【3】How many ships are mentioned in the passage?

A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.

【4】From the passage we know that .

A. the rockets were fired from the mystery ship

B. Cyril Evans worked on the mystery ship that night

C. the Titanic started sinking at dawn the next day

D. the Titanic sent out many telegrams that night

【题目】 It is a bright morning in the Ethiopian countryside. Yohannes walks beside a pair of donkeys that are pulling a two-wheeled cart. They arrive at the agricultural town of Awassa where Yohannes opens the sides of the cart to display, not the usual vegetables or tools, but children’s books. This is the Donkey Mobile Library, the first of its kind in Ethiopia and one of only a few in the world.

Yohannes was born in Ethiopia, North Africa, but trained to be a librarian in the USA and returned to Ethiopia years ago. The cart is full of picture books donated by American libraries, teachers and school children.

Yohannes arranges small painted benches in the shade of the trees, and suddenly Ethiopian children come shouting and racing down every road and path. It’s mobile library day! They circle the bookshelves with great excitement. Until the Donkey Mobile Library began its regular two-monthly visits, many of these children had never seen a book.

“Without books, education is very dull, like food without salt. You can survive but you can’t really come alive,” says Yohannes. “The ability to read is the basis for greater productivity, better health and longer life. Even though the children lack material goods, with books they can imagine a world of possibilities.”

Yohannes first worked in the children’s section of the main library in America. Surrounded by books he had never seen before, he realized how joyful and imaginative children’s literature is. He says, “I always thought of Ethiopia. But how could I bring children’s books to my home country when it had almost no libraries to keep the books in?”

He contacted Jane Kurtz, a writer born in America but brought up in Ethiopia, and together they created the Donkey Mobile Library. The children say that the Library has given them ideas about what they might do in the future. A child called Dareje wants to be a scientist and find a cure for life-threatening diseases. An eleven year-old girl, Fikerte, wants to do research about the moon and discover new facts about outer space. Tamrat, aged 10, comes every time.

“What brings you back here time and time again?” the librarian asks him.

“The stories,” Tamrat replies instantly.

【1】How do the children feel when they see the Donkey Mobile Library?

A. Curious. B. Surprised.

C. Interested. D. Excited.

【2】We can conclude from the passage that .

A. Ethiopian children have no idea about their future

B. Yohannes and Kurtz share similar life experiences

C. donkey carts in Awassa usually carry vegetables and tools

D. most books in the Donkey Mobile Library were bought in America

【3】According to the passage, the Donkey Mobile Library .

A. visits the countryside every day

B. benefits Ethiopian children a lot

C. was created by Yohannes himself

D. was the first of its kind in the world

【4】Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?

A. A news report. B. A book review.

C. A historical story. D. An advertisement.
