题目列表(包括答案和解析)

   Some people may say a hero is someone older than you, someone you personally know, someone who has done something everyone knows about, etc. I don’t think a hero necessarily has to be an older person or a close friend or a family member. My hero is younger than me, but we are related. His name is Marcus. He is my cousin. He isn’t necessarily a wise person or someone who does something great every day, but he has taught me to appreciate some of the simple things in life.

   I am now in 11th grade. When I was in 8th grade, Marcus had a brain tumor (脑瘤) which had to be removed. Thankfully the tumor was benign (良性的). When the doctors removed it Marcus lost his sight. He felt down only once. Ever since then, he has been an extremely happy second-grader. He is very typical of a nine-year-old. He likes to tell jokes, play new games, and he likes to play tricks on people, just like children at his age. I love spending time with him. We go to movies whenever there is a good one and look after him every chance I get.

   I say that Marcus helps to appreciate the simple thing in life. He doesn’t have his sight and that causes me to realize how lucky I am to be able to see, to walk, and to talk. I can do everything I need to. If everyone could see how happy and satisfied Marcus is and how much he makes everyone around him happy, then they might just be able to better appreciate the simple things in life.

59. It can be inferred that the author has_______________.

  A. the same idea about heroes as others

  B. a different idea about heroes from others

  C. the idea that a hero must be older

  D. the idea that a hero must be a close friend

60. Why does the author consider his cousin as a hero?

  A. Because his cousin is a very wise person..

  B. Because his cousin does great things every day.

  C. Because his cousin teaches him how to enjoy a simple life.

  D. Because his cousin teaches him to live a rich life.

61. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

  A. Marcus looks older than his age.

  B. Marcus isn’t nine years old at all.

  C. Marcus is different from the other students.

  D. Marcus is the same as the other children at his age.

62. What makes the author think himself lucky?

  Until I was twelve years old, I thought everyone in the world knew about the grinnies, if I thought about the term at all-which is unlikely.After all, everyone in my family used the word quite naturally, and we understood each other.So far as I knew, it was a word like any other word-like bath, or chocolate, or homework.But it was my homework which led to my discovery that grinnies was a word not known outside my family.

  My last report card had said that I was a “C” student in English, and my parents, both teachers, decided that no child of theirs would be just an average student of anything.So nightly I spelled words aloud and answered questions about the fine points of grammar.I wrote and rewrote and rewrote every composition until I convinced my mother that I could make no more improvements.And the hard work paid off.One day the teacher returned compositions, and there it was-a big fat, bright red “A” on the top of my paper.Naturally, I was delighted, but I didn't know I was attracting attention until the teacher spoke sharply, “Helen, what are you doing?”

  Called suddenly out of my happy thoughts, I said “Oh, I've got the grinnies!” The teacher and my classmates burst into laughter, and then I understood that grinnies were used inside my family.Other people were not so lucky.

  And it is really lucky to have the grinnies, an uncontrollable, natural state of great pleasure.Grinnies are shown on the outside by sparkling eyes and a wide, wide smile - not just any smile, but one that shows the teeth and stretches the mouth to its limits.A person experiencing the grinnies appears to be all mouth.On the inside grinnies are characterized by a feeling of joyful anxiety.Grinnies usually last just a few seconds, but they can come and go.Sometimes, when life seems just perfect, I have occasional attacks of the grinnies for a whole day.

  The term originated in my mother's family.Her younger sister, Rose, who had deep dimples(酒窝), often expressed her pleasure with such a grin that the dimples appeared to become permanent.When Rose was about four, she started explaining her funny look by saying, “I have the grinnies”.The term caught on, and it has been an important word in our family now for two generations.

  The occasion doesn't matter.Anything can bring on the grinnies-just so long as one feels great delight.When my brother finally rode his bicycle-without training wheels-from our house to the corner and back, he came home with the grinnies.When I was little, my mother's announcement that we would have homemade ice cream for dessert always gave me the grinnies.My father had the grinnies when I was chosen to make a speech at the end-of-school-year ceremony.Grinnies can be brought on by a good meal, a sense of pride, a new friend, a telephone call from someone special, an achievement.Or sometimes one gets the grinnies for no reason at all:just a sudden sense of happiness can bring on a case.Whatever brings them on, an attack of the grinnies is among life's greatest pleasures.

  In fact, now that I look back on the experience, I feel sorry for my seventh-grade teacher.I think it's a pity that she didn't know the word grinnies.It's such a useful term for saying, “I'm really, really pleased!”

(1)

After the writer was twelve years old, she ________.

[  ]

A.

thought everyone knew the meaning of “grinnies”

B.

equaled “grinnies” to bath or chocolate in meaning

C.

got to know “grinnies” was used only inside her family

D.

discovered the word “grinnies” through her mother

(2)

When her English teacher called her name, the writer was ________.

[  ]

A.

looking at the big “A” on the top of her paper

B.

listening to her English teacher attentively

C.

too happy to notice what's happening around her

D.

busy rewriting and improving her compositions

(3)

According to the writer, the word “grinnies” originates from ________.

[  ]

A.

her mother

B.

her aunt

C.

her brother

D.

her father

[  ]

A.

has no pity on her students

B.

should not have laughed at her

C.

doesn't have any luck to meet her parent

D.
