    The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being.

    She said, “Hi, girl! My name is Rose. I’m 87 years old. Can I give you a hug?”

    I laughed and enthusiastically（热情地）responded, “Of course you may!” and she gave me a giant squeeze.

       “Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?” I asked. She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of children, and then retire and travel!”

     “No seriously,” I said. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.

     “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me.

    Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students. She was living it up.

    At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I’ll never forget what she taught us.

     “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only two secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor everyday. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die!” she said.

     “There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn 20 years older. If I am 87 years old, and stay in bed for a year, and never do anything, I will turn 88. Anybody can grow older. But every minute counts for young men,” she added.

     “The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.”

    She concluded her speech by courageously singing “The Song of Rose”. She challenged each of us to study the lyrics（歌词）and live them out in our daily lives.

    At the year’s end, Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep.

    4. Rose made herself known to the author in a ______ manner.

    A. serious              B. cold           C. humorous          D. crazy

    5. From the information provided in the passage, we know ______.

    A. Rose finished the college degree within a year

    B. Rose did realize her dream of meeting a rich husband and getting married through college education

    C. Rose enjoyed her campus life very much

    D. Rose grew so old that she stopped playing

    6. Rose delivered the speech ______.

    A. at the graduation                          B. which she prepared carefully

    C. ended with “The Song of Rose”             D. to challenge all the other speakers

    7. According to her speech, ______.

    A. whenever you have a dream, you succeed 

    B. all people don’t grow up while growing older

    C. Rose usually regretted having done something

    D. a nine-year-old is as old as a 87-year-old if he doesn’t do anything

    科目：高中英语 来源：安徽省2010年名校高三一轮复习联考（三）英语试题 题型：阅读理解

    Drunken driving sometimes called American's socially accepted form of murder has become a national epidemic（流行病）．Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past ten years．A drunken driver is usually referred to as one with 0．10-blood alcohol content or roughly three beers, glasses of wines or shots of whisky drunk within two hours．Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American manly image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken killing has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially concerning young children, that public opinion is no longer tolerant．

    Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trend （逆转潮流） in the 1960s to reduce it to 18．After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21．

    Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop "responsible attitudes" about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink．

    Some states are punishing bars for serving customers too many drinks．A bar in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was "obviously drunk" and later drove off the land, killing a nine-year-old boy．

    As the accidents continue to occur daily in every state, some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years national prohibition （禁令） of alcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the "noble experiment"．They forget that legal prohibition didn't stop drinking, but encouraged political corruption （腐败） and organized crime．As with the booming drug trade generally, there is no easy solution．

    1.It can be inferred from the passage that drunken driving has become a major problem in the United States because___．

    A．most Americans like drinking

    B．heavy dinking is hard to avoid

    C．Americans are not shocked by traffic accidents

    D．many Americans are killed by traffic accidents

    2.What can be inferred from the fact of the traffic accidents in New Jersey?

    A．Drivers should not be allowed to drink．

    B．Young drivers were usually bad．

    C．The legal drinking age should be raised．

    D．Some drivers didn't reach the legal drinking age．

    3.The underlined word "lenient" in the first paragraph means___．

    A．cruel          B．serious        C．determined    D．merciful[来源:Z§4.Which of the following best shows the writer's opinion of drunken driving?

    A．It may cause organized crime．

    B．The new laws can stop heavy drinking．

    C．There should be no bars to serve drinks．

    D．It is difficult to solve the problem．
