    Terry was a middle-aged leather trader whose repeated failures in career made him a bad-tempered and disappointed man, often complaining that he had been cheated by others. One day he told his wife he was so disappointed with the city that he had to leave.
    So his family moved to another city. It was the evening of a weekend. When Terry and his wife were busily engaged in tidying up their new home, the lights suddenly went out and they were forced to stop work. Terry regretted to have forgotten to bring along candles and had to wait helplessly in a bad mood. Just then he heard light,hesitand（犹豫的）knocks on his door that were clearly heard in the quiet night.
    “Who’s it?”he wondered. Terry didn’t know anybody in the new city, and this was the moment he especially hated to be disturbed. He went to the door and opened it impatiently. At the door was a little girl, asking in a shy voice,“Sir, do you have candles? I’m your neighbor.”“NO,”answered Terry rudely. He shut the door.“What a nuisance!”he grumbled（嘟囔）over it with his wife.“No sooner had we settled down than the neighbor came to borrow things. What’ll be the next? How bothering!”
    He was angry about it when the door was knocked at again. He opened it and found the same little girl outside. But this time she was holding two candles. She said, “My grandma told me the new neighbor downstairs might need candles. She sent me here to give you these.”Terry was struck by what he saw. When he became fully aware, he said,“Thank you and your grandma. God bless you!”
    At that moment he suddenly realized what caused his failure in life. It was his coldness and harshness（刻薄）with other people. The person who had cheated him in life was actually nobody else but himself, for his eyes had been blurred（使模糊）by his cold mind.
    63.Terry decided to move to another city because___________.
    A.he wanted to earn more money there
    B.he found it more challenging to live in a new place
    C.he didn’t like the place where he lived
    D.he thought he should change his job
    64.Terry treated the little girl rudely because he thought_________.
    A.the neighbor would often borrow things from him later
    B.he had no friends in the new city
    C.she was too young to play with candles
    D.he was cheated at that time
    65.It can be concluded that Terry realized that he used to be_________.
    A.cold and harsh                                       B.lazy and negative
    C.friendly and kind                                      D.crazy and rude
    66.What would be the best title for this passage?
    A.Help others to help yourself              B.Light the candle in your heart
    C.Terry’s good neighbor                             D.God bless you

    Parents often believe that they have a good relationship（关系）with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut,” Joanna noted.
    Tina and Mark noticed similar changed in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up (蜷伏) with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady.”
    Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list,” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years,” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”
    Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break(休息), for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.
    【小题1】“The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son ______.

    A．is always busy with his studiesB．doesn’t want to be disturbed
    C．keeps himself away from his parentsD．begins to dislike his parents
    【小题2】 What troubles Tina and Mark most is that _____.
    their daughter isn’t as lovely as before  
    they can’t read their daughter’s mind exactly
    they don’t know what to say to their daughter
    their daughter talks with them only when she needs help
    【小题3】 Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?
    A． Teenagers talk a lot with their friends
    B． Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.
    C． Teenagers do not talk much with their parents
    D． Teenagers talk little about their own lives
    【小题4】What can be learned from the passage?
    A.  Parents are unhappy with their growing children.
    Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers
    C.   Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.
    D.   Parents should try to understand their teenagers.

     (江西省抚州一中2009届高三第四次模拟考试A篇)

    Each Indian tribe had a different language. Many Indians never learned any language except their own. Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each other? They had two ways to talk without sound. One way was by sign language; the other way by signals.

    Sign language is a way of talking by using signs. Indians used sign language when they met strangers. In this way, they could find out whether the stranger was a friend or an enemy. In the Indian sign language, signs were made with the hands. One sign meant “man”. Another meant “horse”. To tell the time of day when something happened, an Indian pointed to the sky. He showed where the sun had been at the time.

    Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away. To make signals, an Indian might use a pony. He might use a blanket. Or he might use smoke, a mirror or fire arrows.

    To signal that he had seen many animals, an Indian rode his pony in a large circle. Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide. This meant that there was danger.

    The blanket signal was visible from far away. An Indian held the corners of a blanket in his hands. Then he began to swing the blanket from side to side in front of him. An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.

    He could also send many signals with a mirror. He usually used the mirror to warn someone of danger. Or he attempted to get the attention of a person far away. But he also used it to send messages in code. Of course, mirrors could be used only when the sun was shining. At night, Indians used fire arrows for signaling.

       An Indian also sent signals with smoke. He made a small fire of dry wood. Then he put grass or green branches on it. He held a blanket over the fire for a minute. When he removed the blanket from the fire, there was a cloud of smoke. The number of clouds of smoke told his message in code.

    Now you can see that Indians didn’t need to learn each other’s language. They could talk to one another by using signals or sign language.

    56. The whole text is mainly about _______.

    A. different tribes have different languages

    B. the Indians had many kinds of languages

    C. how Indians communicated between different tribes

    D. why the Indians used many languages

    57. An Indian used a mirror to do all the followings EXCEPT _______.

    A. send messages in code 

    B. get the attention of someone in the distance

    C. warn someone of danger

    D. to tell a friend from an enemy

    58. Sign language is _______.

    A. to write one’s signature        

    B. a secret way of talking to some Indian tribes

    C. a kind of gesture only for Indians 

    D. a way to express one’s ideas by making gestures

    59. Indians didn’t need to learn each other’s language because _______.

    A. they thought they could easily make themselves understood

    B. they could use signals or sign language

    C. different tribes lived far away and never met each other

    D. they never communicated with one another

      These days, many passers-by always spot a beggar on the Jiaochangkou Street in Yuzhong District of Chongqing in southwest China.

           The beggar’s name is Xia Haibo, and he was born in Meihe Village, Tianmen City of Hubei Province. Being 25 years old, he is quite a special beggar in some ways — he doesn’t beg on his knees, as other beggars do when begging. Rather, he often stands in the crowded street, either reading a book or thinking about something carefully. He also started a blog on the Internet which has been clicked more than 500,000 times. He likes reading — he has read many classical Chinese poems. He has kept writing and recently, he has planned to publish his writings.

           In 1998, Xia entered Tianmen Middle School as the best student in his town. However, a year before he took the college entrance examination, he came down with a high fever and was later diagnosed (诊断) as having rheumatoid arthritis (类风湿性关节炎). In order to treat his disease, his father borrowed 60,000 yuan from relatives and friends. However, with this money, he didn’t recover from the disease. He did not want to become a burden (负担) to his family any more. So in July, 2006, he left his hometown and went to Wuhan to make a living by begging.

           Begging has become a job to Xia now. However, he doesn’t plan to go on living like this. “By July 24, 2008, when I have been begging for two years, I will stop my begging life. I promise,” he said.

           It is his plan that by using the money he “earns”, he will rent a small shop in his hometown and keep on writing in his spare time.

           Right now, he is trying to finish a book of his own. The book, called Love Is With Me, tells about the people who helped him during his begging life.

    67. The underlined word “spot” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to “______”.

    A. forgive            B. record          C. beat                D. notice

    68. When did Xia Haibo get the serious illness?

    A. In 1998.     B. In 2001.          C. In 2000.      D. In 2006.

    69. How does Xia beg in the street?

    A. He begs on his knees in the street.           

    B. He writes Chinese poems for those who like poems.

    C. He reads or thinks while standing in the street.

    D. He teaches people how to surf the Internet.

    A. His dream is to have his book published.

    B. He will not stop begging until he earns enough money for his future life.

    C. He is writing a book to express his thanks to those who helped him.
