Hey there,

So you’re about to spend four years of your life and tens of thousands of dollars of your parents’ money,and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going.Do you ever stop to wonder why you’re going?

Relax.You’re making the right decision.First of all,you’ll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects.For example,it’s hard to decide if you want to be a painter if you’ve never painted any pictures;once you’re in a drawing?room on campus,you’ll know one way or the other.College is also a lot of fun—after you graduate,you’ll be working every weekday for 50 or so years.And remember that college graduates earn about twice the income of those who never attend college.

Finding the right college can be difficult.Fortunately,Johnson Review is here to help you every step of the way.

*Researching Schools.To us,the most important decision you’ll make is to choose the school that really fits you best—not the one that is the most competitive or has the best?equipped rooms.

*Applying to School.On JohnsonReview.com,you’ll find hundreds of actual college applications and links to many more.

*Raising Your Scores.American College Test is one of the most difficult parts of the admissions course.It’s not the most important, though,and not everyone needs to prepare for the test.But,if you think you can do better,find the right course for better scores.

*Paying for School.Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college.The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college rather than learning the ways to get financial aid.If you really do your research,you’ll learn that you can afford to attend any college,no matter the cost.

For more information,call 600?3681 or visit JohnsonReview.com.Wherever you go,have a nice trip!

I arrived at my mother’s home for our Monday family dinner. The smells of food flew over from the kitchen. Mother was pulling out quilt after quilt from the boxes, proudly showing me their beauties. She was preparing for a quilt show at the Elmhurst Church. When we began to fold and put them back into the boxes, I noticed something at the bottom of one box. I pulled it out. “What is this?” I asked.

“Oh?” Mom said, “That’s Mama’s quilt.”

I spread the quilt. It looked at if a group of school children had pieced it together; irregular designs, childish pictures, a crooked line on the right.

“Grandmother made this?” I said, surprised. My grandmother was a master at making quilts. This certainly didn’t look like any of the quilts she had made.

“Yes, right before she died. I brought it home with me last year and made some changes,” she said. “I’m still working on it. See, this is what I’ve done so far.”

I looked at it more closely. She had made straight a crooked line. At the center of the quilt, she had stitched(縫) a piece of cloth with these words: “My mother made many quilts. She didn’t get all lines straight. But I think this is beautiful. I want to see it finished. Her last quilt.”

“Oh, this is so nice, Mom,” I said. It occurred to me that by completing my grandmother’s quilt, my mother was honoring her own mother. I realized, too, that I held in my hands a family treasure. It started with the loving hands of one woman, and continued with the loving hands of another.

1.Why did the author go to mother’s home?

A. To see her mother’s quilts.

B. To help prepare for a show.

C. To get together for the family dinner.

D. To discuss her grandmother’s life.

2.The author was surprised because .

A. the quilt looked very strange.

B. her grandmother liked the quilt.

C. the quilt was the best she had seen.

D. her mother had made some changes

3.The underlined wood “crooked” in the passage most probably means .

A. unfinished

B. broken

C. bent

D. unusual

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. A Quilt Show

B. Mother’s Home

C. A Monday Dinner

D. Grandmother’s Quilt

科目:高中英語 來源:2016屆山東菏澤市高三下期4月模擬考試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

I grew up poor. We had little money, but plenty of love and attention. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream. My dream was athletics.

By the time I was sixteen, I was good at baseball and football. My high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis. He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction(信念).

One summer a friend recommended me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket — cash for dates with girls, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother.

Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing. I was dreading(害怕)this, but my mother said: “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.

When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as mad as I expected him to be. “Your playing days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them,” he said.

I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house.

“How much are you going to make at this job, son?” he demanded.

“Three twenty-five an hour,” I replied.

“Well,” he asked, “is $3.25 an hour the price of a dream?”

That question laid bare for me the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal. I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie-league ball, and offered a $20,000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother the house of my dream.

1.The writer was grateful to Coach Jarvis, because Jarvis ______.

A. made him set a goal

B. supplied him with new clothes

C. gave him financial support

D. helped him show conviction

2.When the boy was offered a job, he wanted to ______.

A. balance summer baseball and the work schedule

B. refuse the job offer for summer baseball

C. give up summer baseball for the job

D. ask his coach Jarvis for advice

3. Which of the following can replace “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.”?

A. You must eat the bitter fruit of your own making.

B. Believe in yourself, but above all be patient.

C. You must rely on yourself first, then others.

D. A good beginning makes a good ending.

4. The end of the story was that the writer ______.

A. failed to buy his mother a house

B. succeeded as a sportsman

C. became a successful businessman

D. made some money in the summer job
