When friends come to visit us in the evening, they spend their time telling us they are in a hurry and looking at their watches. It isn’t that our friends are all very busy, it is just that we haven’t got a television. People think that we are very strange. “But what do you do in the evening?”，they are always asking. The answer is very simple. Both my wife and I have hobbies. We certainly don’t spend our evenings staring at the walls. My wife enjoys cooking and painting and often attends evening classes in foreign languages. This is particularly useful as we often go abroad for our holidays. I collect stamps and I’m always busy with my collection. Both of us enjoy listening to the music and playing chess together.
Sometimes there are power cuts and we have no electricity in the house. This does not worry us, we just light candles and carry on with what we were doing before. Our friends, however, are lost---no television!---So they don’t know what to do. On such evenings our house is very full ---they all come to us. They all have a good time. Instead of sitting in silence in front of the television, everybody talks and plays games.
The couple have not got a television, because .
A. they are not rich enough
B. they are strange people
C. they enjoy spending evenings in their own ways
D. they don’t know what to do when there are power cuts
Both of them are interested in .
A. learning languages B. traveling
C. staying home alone D. watching people play games
At night when there is no electricity, the couple .
A. have to stare at the walls B. can do nothing but sit in silence
C. will have many visitors D. have to go out for candles
The best title for this passage is _____.
A. Why Do We Need a Television? B. Candle! But No Electricity!
C. Different Friends, Different Hobbies. D. We Go Without Televisions!

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年天津河西高三年級(jí)總復(fù)習(xí)質(zhì)量調(diào)查英語(yǔ)卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解
Growing up, I remember my father as a silent, serious man not the sort of person around whom one could laugh. As a teenager arriving in America, knowing nothing, I wanted a father who could explain the human journey. In college, when friends called home for advice, 1 would sink into deep depression for what I did not have.
Today. at twenty-seven, I have come to rediscover them in ways that my teenage mind would not allow — as adults and as friends with their own faults and weaknesses.
One night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. There was some trouble. Later, Dad shared the problem with me. Apparently my legal training had earned me some privileges in his eyes. I talked through the problem with Dad. analyzing the purposes of the people involved and offering several negotiation strategies. He listened patiently before finally admitting, “I can’t think like that. I am a simple man.”
Dad is a brilliant scientist who can deconstruct (解構(gòu)) the building blocks of nature. Yet human nature is a mystery to him. That night I realized that he was simply not skilled at dealing with people, much less the trouble of a conflicted teenager. It’s not in his nature to understand human desires.
And so, there it was — it was no one’s fault that my father held no interest in human lives while 1 placed great importance in them. We are at times born more sensitive, wide-eyed, and dreamy than our parents and become more curious and idealistic than them. Dad perhaps never expected me for a child. And I, who knew Dad as an intelligent man, had never understood that his intelligence did not cover all of my feelings.
It has saved me years of questioning and confusion. I now see my parents as people who have other relationships than just Father and Mother. I now overlook their many faults and weaknesses, which once annoyed me.
I now know my parents as friends: people who ask me for advice; people who need my support and understanding. And I’ve come to see my past clearly.
1.What was the author’s impression of her father when she was a teenager?
A. Friendly but irresponsible.
B. Intelligent but severe.
C. Cold and aggressive.
D. Caring and communicative.
2.Why did the author feel depressed when her friends called home?
A. She did not have a phone to a1l home.
B. Her father did not care about her human journey.
C. Her father was too busy to answer her phone.
D. Her father couldn’t give her appropriate advice.
3.After the author overheard her father on the telephone.
A. he blamed her for impoliteness
B. he rediscovered human nature
C. he consulted with her about his problem
D. he changed his attitude towards the author
4.The author realized that ______.
A. her father had too many faults and weaknesses
B. her father was not as intelligent as she had thought
C. her father was not good at interpersonal relationships
D. her father placed too much importance in social activities
5.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A. My Parents as Friends
B. My Parents as Advisors
C. My Father — a Serious Man
D. My Father — an Intelligent Scientist

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013屆福建省高二下學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解
Here below we will talk about the American expressions using the word “Dutch”． Many of the “Dutch” expressions heard in American English were first used in England in the seventeenth century． Britain used to be called “empire on which the sun never sets”，which gained its supreme（至高無(wú)上的） power mostly by its naval(海軍的 )military forces． The period of the Anglo-Dutch Wars was a time of fierce naval competition between England and the Netherlands． At that time, the British used “Dutch” as a word for something bad, or false, or mistaken．
A “Dutch agreement” was one made between men who had drunk too much alcohol. “Dutch courage” was the false courage produced by the effects of drinking alcohol. And “Dutch leave” was what a solider took when he left his base（基地）without permission．
Some of these old expressions are still used today with a little different meaning． “Dutch treat” is one example． Long ago, a Dutch treat was a dinner at which the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share of the food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means that when friends go out to have fun, each person pays his own share．
Another common expression heard a few years ago was “in Dutch”, which simply referred to the country then． Nowadays, if someone says to you, you are in Dutch, they are telling you that you were in trouble． An important person, a parent or teacher perhaps, is angry with you．
Some of the Dutch expressions heard in American English have nothing to do with the Dutch people at all． In the 1700s, Germans who moved to the United States often were called Dutch． This happened because of mistakes in understanding and saying the word “Deutsch”, the German word for German. Families of these German people still live in the eastern United States, many in the state of Pennsylvania. They are known as the Pennsylvania Dutch．
During the American Civil War, supporters of the northern side in the central state of Missouri were called Dutch, because many of them were German settlers. In California, during the Gold Rush, the term Dutch was used to describe Germans, Swedes, and Norwegians as well as people from the Netherlands．
President Theodore Roosevelt once noted that anything foreign and non-English was called Dutch．One expression still in use, “to talk to someone like a Dutch uncle”, did come from the Dutch．The Dutch were known for the firm way they raise their children. So if someone speaks to you like a Dutch uncle, he is speaking in a very severe way． And you should listen to him carefully．
1.According to paragraph 1, the British used “Dutch” as a word for something bad and mistaken because ___________．
|
A．it was the long-lasting habit of the British language. |
|
B．the Netherlands was the closest rival（競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手） for naval supremacy then. |
|
C．there was a close connection between “Dutch” and “Deutsch”. |
|
D．a(chǎn)nything foreign and non-English was called “Dutch”. |
2.Most probably, a man with Dutch courage would _________.
|
A．invite his friends to dinner. |
|
B．beat a strange passer-by without any reason. |
|
C．speak to a Dutch uncle. |
|
D．become angry with the teacher. |
3.Which one of the following has nothing to do with the Dutch?
|
A．The expression “to talk to someone like a Dutch uncle”. |
|
B．When friends go out to have fun, they choose Dutch treat. |
|
C．Germans who moved to the United States were called Dutch. |
|
D．A solider took “Dutch leave” during wars. |
4.What is mainly talked about in the passage?
|
A．Language causes of the Anglo-Dutch Wars |
|
B．Language of the Netherlands |
|
C．Deutsch VS Dutch |
|
D．Dutch expressions in American English |
