I'd been travelling for long hours on a lonely country road when I had a flat tire. So I had to stop and get the tools to  36 the problem. It certainly wasn’t  37 doing this with a white shirt and suit on.
Nightfall was approaching. Suddenly a car pulled  38 from behind me. A man got out and offered to  39 me. Seeing his unpleasant appearance and tattoos(紋身)on his arm, I became  40 as thoughts of robberies flashed through my mind. But  41 I could say anything he had already begun to take the tools to change the  42 . While watching him I happened to look back at his car and noticed someone sitting in the passenger seat. This had  43 me.
Then, without  44 , it began to rain. He suggested that I wait in his car because my car was unsafe. As the rain increased, getting us wet within seconds, I  45 agreed. When I settle into the back seat, a woman’s voice came from the front seat. “Are you all right?” She turned around to me. “Yes, I am.’’ I replied with much  46  when seeing an old woman there. It must be his Mom, I thought. To my  47 , the old woman was a neighbor of the man who was helping me. “Jeff insisted on stopping when he saw you  48 with the tire. ”“I am grateful for his help, ” I said. “Me, too!” she said with a smile. He helped drive her to see her husband twice a week in a nursing home. She also said that he  49 at the church and tutored disadvantaged students.
The rain stopped and Jeff and I changed me tire. I tried to offer him money and of course he  50 it. It was shameful that I judged people by the way they  51 . As we shook hands I began to apologize for my  52 . He said, ‘‘I experience that same  53 often. People who look like me don’t do nice things. I  54 thought about changing the way. But then I saw this as a chance to make a  55 . So I’ll leave you with the same question I ask everyone who takes time to know me. If Jesus returned tomorrow and walked among us again, would you recognize Him by what He wore or by what He did?’’

解析試題分析:作者的車在途中癟胎,一名陌生的男子主動提供幫助。他的外貌讓作者提心吊膽,后來作者才發(fā)覺對方并無惡意,而且他還幫作者換好了輪胎,作者深深為自己以貌取人的做法感到羞愧。
【小題1】C上句提到車胎癟了,所以作者不得不停下來用工具解決這個問題。此處fix表示“修理”。
【小題2】B作者穿著白色的襯衣和套裝,處理這樣的問題當然不“容易”。
【小題3】A突然一輛車在作者身后停了下來。此處pull up表示“(使車)停下”。
【小題4】D一名男子從車里走出來,主動“幫助”作者。7空后面的內(nèi)容是線索提示。
【小題5】B作者看到他那令人討厭的外貌和胳膊上的文身后,腦海中閃現(xiàn)出打劫的場景,開始“害怕”起來。A項表示“氣餒的”,C項表示“失望的”,D項表示“吃驚的”,均不符合語境。
【小題6】D作者還“沒有來得及”說任何話,他已經(jīng)開始接過工具忙碌起來。before表示“在……之前”。
【小題7】A文章開頭部分提到作者的車胎癟了,所以那位男子是在更換“車胎”。
【小題8】B作者看到男子的第一反應是搶劫,此時又注意到車中還坐著另外一個人,自然感到非!皳摹。此處concern 表示“讓(某人)擔憂”。
【小題9】A隨后,沒有任何“先兆”,天開始下雨。warning“先兆”。
【小題10】D根據(jù)作者見到這名男子后的反應可推測作者“不情愿地”同意了對方的建議。
【小題11】C作者原以為會遭遇搶劫,想不到車中坐的是一位老太太,因此感到非!皩捨俊。
【小題12】C上一句提到作者猜想這位老太太一定是男子的媽媽,此處指出她是男子的鄰居,由此可知作者感到非常“驚訝”。
【小題13】D老太太告訴作者當Jeff看到作者“吃力地”修理車胎時,就堅持要停下來。struggle“吃力地進行”。
【小題14】D根據(jù)上一句中的內(nèi)容可推測男子是“自愿”在教堂從事義務勞動。另外,本句后半部分提到的他對貧困學生的幫助也是線索提示。
【小題15】A上一段的后半部分提到他免費幫助老太太,還經(jīng)常做義務服務,由此可知他理所當然地“拒絕”了作者給他的酬勞。
【小題16】C第二段的前半部分提到作者是在看到他的外貌和胳膊上的文身后才聯(lián)想到了搶劫,所以此處是為自己以“貌”取人感到羞愧。
【小題17】B作者根據(jù)Jeff的外貌判斷他是想搶劫,想不到對方是在真心幫助自己,所以作者為自己的“愚蠢”道歉。
【小題18】C作者見到男子的第一想法是搶劫,由此可知男子經(jīng)常經(jīng)歷同樣的“反應”。
【小題19】B男子說外貌看起來像他那樣的人不做好事,他“實際上”考慮過改變這種形象。
【小題20】A由下文男子留給人們的問題可知男子把這看做是一次證明一種看法的機會,此處point表示“看法,觀點”。

I start to wonder what else had changed since I’d been gone. My parents are in an awkward puzzle, wondering how to treat me now----whether to treat me—still their daughter—as one of them, an adult, or as the child they feel they sent away months earlier.
I run into two of my best friends from high school; we stare at each other, expressionless. We ask the simple questions and give simple answers. It’s as if we have nothing to say to each other. I wonder how things have changed so much in such a small amount of time. We used to laugh and promise that no matter how far away we were, our love for each other would never change. Their interests don’t interest me anymore, and I find myself unable to relate my life to theirs.
I had been so excited to come home, but now I just look at it all and wonder: Is it me? Why hadn’t the world stood still here while I was gone?  My room isn’t the same, my friends and I don’t share the same promise, and my parents don’t know how to treat me—or who I am, for that matter.
I get back to school feeling half-satisfied, but not disappointed. I sit up in my bed in my dorm room, surrounded by my pictures, dolls. As I wonder what has happened, I realize that I can’t expect the world to stand still and move forward at the same time.  I can change and expect that things at home will stay the same. I have to find comfort in what has changed and what is new; keep the memories, but live in the present.
A few weeks later, I’m packing again, this time for winter break. My mom meets me at the door. I have come home accepting the changes, not only in my surroundings, but most of all in me.
【小題1】What can we infer about the writer?

A.She is a high school student.B.She is a college student.
C.She is a clerk in a school.D.She is a traveler.
【小題2】What surprises the writer most?
A.The living conditions of her parents.B.The decorations in her room.
C.The meeting with her best friends.D.The things still staying the same.
【小題3】What is this passage mainly about?
A.The writer’s curiosity about the changes.
B.The changes in the writer’s surroundings and in herself.
C.The writer’s disappointment about the changes.
D.The writer’s refusal to accept the changes.

Now every time I pressed “Check Mail”, there were more messages. I watched the numbers of the visitors counter on my blog   53  by the hundreds. These were people at their computers all over the world. I felt as of I was viewing a miracle unfold(展開).
Over the next week, in libraries and in the car   54  under lamp posts at night, I wrote my papers. I had notepaper spread   55  the dashboard(儀表盤). And every morning in the quiet of the lane, I wrote for my life.

科目:高中英語 來源:2014屆浙江象山普通高中高三第二次模擬英語卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

I have only once been in trouble with the law.The whole process of being arrested and taken to court was a rather unpleasant experience at the time, but it makes a good story now. What makes it rather disturbing was the arbitrary(隨意的)circumstances both of my arrest and my subsequent (隨后的) fate in court.

It happened in February about twelve years ago.I had left school a couple of months before that and was not due to go to university until the following October.I was still living at home at the time.

One morning I was in Richmond, a suburb of London near where I lived.I was looking for a temporary job so that I could save up some money to go traveling.As it was a fine day and I was in no hurry, I was taking my time, looking in shop windows, strolling in the park, and sometimes just stopping and looking around me.It must have been this obvious aimlessness that led to my downfall.

It was about half past eleven when it happened.I was just walking out of the local library, having unsuccessfully sought employment there, when I saw a man walking across the road with the obvious intention of talking to me.I thought he was going to ask me the time.Instead, he said he was a police officer and he was arresting me.At first I thought it was some kind of joke

But then another policeman appeared, this time in uniform, and I was left in no doubt.

'But what for?" I asked

‘Wandering with intent to commit an arrestable offence,' he said.

‘What offence?' I asked

'Theft,' he said

'Theft of what?'I asked

'Milk bottles,' he said, and with a perfectly straight face too!

'Oh,' I said.

It turned out there had been a lot of petty thefts in the area, particularly that of stealing milk bottles from doorsteps.

Then I made my big mistake.At the time I was nineteen, had long untidy hair, and regarded myself as pan of the sixties' 'youth counterculture'.As a result, I wanted to appear cool and unconcerned with the incident, so I said, 'How long have you been following me?  in the most casual and conversational tone I could manage.I thus appeared to them to be quite familiar with this sort of situation, and it confirmed them in their belief that I was a thoroughly disreputable (品行不端的) character.

         A few minutes later a police car arrived.

         'Get in the back,' they said.'Put your hands on the back of the front seat and don't move them.'

         They got in on either side of me.It wasn't funny any more.

         At the police station they questioned me for several hours.I continued to try to look worldly and familiar with the situation.When they asked me what I had been doing, I told them I'd been looking for a job.'Aha,' I could see them thinking, 'unemployed'.

Eventually, I was officially charged and told to report to Richmond Magistrates' Court the following Monday.Then they let me go.

I wanted to conduct my own defense in court, but as soon as my father found out what had happened, he hired a very good solicitor (律師) .We went along that Monday armed with all kinds of witnesses, including my English teacher from school as a character witness.But he was never called on to give evidence.My 'trial' didn't get that far.The magistrate (法官) dismissed the case after fifteen minutes.1 was free.The poor police had never stood a chance.The solicitor even succeeded in getting costs awarded against the police.

And so I do not have a criminal record.But what was most shocking at the time was the things my release from the charge so clearly depended on.I had the 'right' accent, respectable middle-class parents in court, reliable witnesses, and I could obviously afford a very good solicitor.Given the obscure nature of the charge.I feel sure that if I had come from a different background, and had really been unemployed, there is every chance that I would have been found guilty.While asking for costs to be awarded, my solicitor's case quite obviously revolved (回轉) around the fact that I had a 'brilliant academic record'.

Meanwhile, just outside the courtroom, one of the policemen who had arrested me was gloomily complaining to my mother that another youngster had been turned against the police. 'You could have been a bit more helpful when we arrested you,' he said to me reproachfully (責備地) .

What did he mean? Probably that I should have looked outraged (暴怒)and said something like, 'Look here, do you know who you're talking to? I am a highly successful student with a brilliant academic record.How dare you arrest me!' Then they, probably, would have apologized perhaps even taken off their caps, and let me on my way.

1.Judging from the first paragraph, the writer's attitude towards his story is _______.

A.a(chǎn)ngry                                          B.sad

C.a(chǎn)mused                                      D.more than just one of the above

2.The first man who came up to him was ______.

A.a(chǎn) uniformed policeman                  B.a(chǎn) policeman in plainclothes

C.not a policeman                          D.a(chǎn) good joker

3.The court never asked the author's English teacher to give evidence because _______.

A.the time for the trial was limited to fifteen minutes only

B.the author wanted to conduct his own defense in court

C.the case was dismissed before the trial reached that stage

D.he was found to be unqualified as a character witness

4.The author believes that he would most probably have been declared guilty if _______.

A.the magistrate had been less gentle

B.he had really been out of work

C.he had been born in a lower—class family

D.both B and C

5.In the opinion of one of the policeman who had arrested the author, the whole thing might not have occurred if ______.

A.he had protested strongly at the time

B.he had begged to be allowed to go home

C.he hadn't wandered aimlessly

D.he had tried to look cool

6.We can see from the passage that the author ______.

A.has broken the law only once

B.has never broken the law

C.has broken the law on more than one occasion

D.once broke the law without knowing it
