The opera house in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is one of the most beautiful in the United States. It is small and open, with one roof over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the audience. This opera house in the mountain is one of the best in the country, which may seem surprising because performances are only given during seven weeks in summer, and because Santa Fe is a very small city.

The state government of New Mexico advertises the Santa Fe Opera in newspapers all over the country, and a great many tourists come to New Mexico because of the opera ,Still ,most of the audience does come from Santa Fe and other nearby cities. And all the seats in the theater are sold for every show.

科目:高中英语 来源:2012-2013学年贵州省高三上学期期中考试英语试卷2(解析版) 题型:阅读理解
In our life, we have rarely expressed our gratitude to the one who lived those years with us. In fact, we don't have to wait for anniversaries to thank the ones closest to us and the ones so easily overlooked. If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is this: give it now! While your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere, act on it. Saying thanks is such an easy way to add to the world's happiness.
Saying thanks not only brightens someone else's world, it brightens yours. If you're feeling left out, unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others. It may be just the medicine you need. Of course, there are times when you can't express gratitude immediately. In that case, don't let embarrassment sink you into silence and speak up the first time you have the chance.
Once a young minister, Mark Brian, was sent to a remote parish(教区)of Kwakiutl Indians in British Columbia. The Indians, he had been told, did not have a word for thank you. But Brian soon found that these people had unusual generosity. Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to return every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with an equal or superior kindness. They do their thanks. I wonder if we had no words in our vocabulary for thank you, would we do a better job of communicating our gratitude? Would we be more responsive, more sensitive, more caring?
Thankfulness sets in motion a chain reaction that transforms people all around us-including ourselves. For no one ever misunderstands the melody(旋律)of a grateful heart. Its message is universal; its poems transcend(超越)all earthly barriers; its music touches the heaven.
1.Who do we easily forget to express our thanks to according to the writer?
A.Friends not meeting for a long time. |
B.Former teachers and friends. |
C.People we want to get close to. |
D.Our family members and good friends. |
2. When we say something for what others do for us, it ______.
A.benefits the people who do something for us |
B.is good for both us and people who help us |
C.wastes our and our friends' time at the same time |
D.does harm to both us and people who help us |
3.What does the writer mean in the third paragraph?
A.The only way to thank others is to express by your own words. |
B.The best way to thank others is to do something for them. |
C.We can thank people who help us in various ways. |
D.We can thank people who help us in two ways. |
4.The way to make us feel happy is ______ when we think we ourselves are forgotten in the world.
A.to help and appreciate others |
B.to ask others to help us |
C.to remind others of our helping them |
D.to ask someone to help others |

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Who decides how English is spoken around the world? Do teachers in the colleges and schools? What about those who write dictionaries or books? Do they decide what is good and what is bad English? Or do governments decide when a language will change? Probably you have thought about this question once or twice before. The answer is that none of these people decide how English will be spoken. Believe it or not, many of the biggest changes in how English is spoken have come from common people in the streets. And one of the most important places where English has changed is on the playground! These playground can be any place where young people meet, such as a sports field or a beach. For example, black kids invented many new words in American English as they played basketball or music. Often words used by black kids in the big cities become popular with other kids many years later. Another popular sport, baseball, has also given many words and expressions to American English. On the beaches of southern California, teenagers invented words to describe how they felt when they surfed. These words found their way into the high schools and then to other places. Similar changes in English happened among young people in Ireland and Australia. Children from one group would find ways to play with children of another group more easily. Often they made new words just to develop an identity different from their parents.
56. Who decides how English is spoken?
A. Governments B. Teachers C. Ordinary people D. Black kids
57. According to the passage many English words come from ______.
A. everyday life B. textbooks C. dictionaries D. baseballs
58. Why do these kids invent new words?

B. because they try to beat their teachers.
C. because they are asked to do so.
D. because they want to feel different from their parents
