    阅读理解

    阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

    　　An “apple polisher” is one who gives gifts to win friendship or special treatment．It is not exactly a bribe(贿赂),but is close to it．

    　　All sorts of people are apple polishers, including politicians and people in high offices－just about everybody．Oliver Cromwell, the great English leader, offered many gifts to win the support of George Fox and his party, but failed．

    　　There are other phrases meaning the same thing as “apple-polishing”－“soft-soaping” or “butter-up”．A gift is just one way to “soft-soap” somebody, or to “butter him up”．Another that is just as effective is flattery, giving someone high praise－telling him how good he looks, or how well he speaks, or how talented and wise he is．

    　　Endless are the ways of flattery．Who does not love or hear it ? Only an unusual man can resist the thrill of being told how wonderful he is．In truth, flattery is good medicine for most of us, who gets so little of it．

    　　We need it to be more sure of ourselves．It cannot hurt unless we get carried away by it．But we just lap it up for its food value and nourishment, as a cat laps up milk, then we can still remain true to ourselves．

    　　Sometimes, however, flattery will get you nothing from one who has had too much of it．A good example is the famous 12 th century legend of King Canute of Denmark and England．The king got tired of listening to the endless sickening flattery of his courtiers(朝臣)．They overpraised him to the skies, as a man of limitless power．

    　　He decided to teach them a lesson．He took them to the seashore and sat down．Then he ordered the waves to stop coming in．The tide was too busy to listen to him．The king was satisfied．This might show his followers how weak his power was and how empty their flattery．

    (1)

    Which of the following activities has nothing to do with “apple-polishing” ?

    A boy tells his girlfriend how pretty she looks

    Too much flattery can carry us away

    B．

    Flattery is too empty to do people any good

    C．

    Flattery can get nothing but excessive(过度的)pride

    D．

    Flattery is one of the ways to apple-polish people．

    (3)

    King Canute of Denmark and England took his followers to the seashore because ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    he was sick of his normal

    B．

    he disliked being overpraised any more

    C．

    he wanted them to realize how wise he was

    D．

    he wanted them to see how weak he was as a king

    (4)

    [　　]

    A．

    are really excellent

    B．

    lack confidence

    C．

    are politicians or in high offices

       “BANG”the door caused a reverberation．“Never set foot in this house again!”shouted father．With tears weiling(涌出)up in my eyes，I rushed out of the hofase and ran along the street．

        A young father who held a child in his arlzis walked past rile．I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space：happy and harmonious(和谐)

        But now I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because Dad is getting old．We are just like two people coming from two different worlds．It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened．

        1 wandered the street，without a destination in my n'nnd．My heart was frozen oil this hot summer night．As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people m the streets，until I had only streets to keep me company When I finally reached the high rise apartment block in which I livegt，I saw that the light was still on．

         I thought to myself，“Is father waiting for rile．or is he still angry with me?”

        In fact，it was nothing．Perhaps，Dad was throwing some of his old stamps．Perhaps he thought they were useless．I never had th,e courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps．

        All the lights were off except father’S

        Dad was always 1ike this．Maybe he didn’t know bow to express himself．After shouting at me，he never showed any mercy or regret After an argument he will creep(蹑手蹑脚)up in my sleep and then tuck rile underneath the covers

        This was how he always was．Fie has been a leader for So long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature．

        The fight was still oil With the key in hand，1 was as nervous as 1 had ever been．At last，I decided to open the door．As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks．I suddenly realized that the iron door that l had imagined between us did not exist at all Love－it is second to none．

    Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from the list A – F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.

     

    A．How many people have participated in the well – received competition?

    B．Does the well – received competition of tall tales have an origin?

    C．Who was the constant winner of the annual competition of tall tales?

    D．Is there any secret to win the competition?

    E．Does the competition win the hearts of the people all over the world?

    F．Who is the annual competition of tall tales given to honour?

    1．

     

    John Graham won the annual competition of tall tales, which is held at the Bridge. Inn in Santon Bridge, in Britain’s Lake District. The “world’s biggest liar” has been crowned, after telling a tale about a German World War II submarine invading Britain to get digital television decoders. The 69 – year – old Graham, who has won the title five times before, insisted to BBC radio that “it was a true story”.

    2．

    The annual World’s Biggest Liar Competition, which now draws tourists and competitors from around the world, dates back to the 19 th century when it was founded to honor a famous man called Will Ritson （1808 – 1890）.

    3．

    The contest is always held at the Bridge Inn. Ritson was a popular pub owner who lived in the western Lake District. He always kept his customers interested with his funny stories. Of course, Ritson was a very honest and sincere man, who insisted that all his tales were true.

    4．

    Each year, a contest is held to award the title of “The Biggest Liar in the World” to the person who is worthy of following in Ritson’s footsteps. More than 120 people from across the country, and from as far away as Sweden and South Africa, have taken part in this interesting competition.

    5．

    Competitiors have five minutes to tell the biggest lie. Last year’s winner Sue told the truth of “telling a successful lie”, “I think you have got to keep that element of truth and then add some mad and fantastical elements. If you start off in a spaceship then you’ve lost people straight away.”

    “Politicians and lawyers are banned from entering as they are judged to be too skilled at telling lies.”
