七選五閱讀

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Do You Have the Time? In English, this question has two different meanings. The first one is “Do you know what time it is?” While commonly, this is less frequently used than the simpler question with the same meaning “What time is it?” The other is “Do you have the time (e.g. to do this or that)?” This is a very commonly asked question, whether in American, British, or Australian English. I think the response “I don’t have the time” is most commonly used year after year. 1.

Think about how often you (and I) have used this as an explanation of why we couldn’t do something, take on a new task, help someone, visit someone, etc. Sometimes it’s a statement of fact, and sometimes it’s just an excuse. 2. However, deep down we each have a pretty clear idea of the difference. In practical terms, the lack of available time seems to be and often is a true reason for why we cannot take something on. 3. “I just don’t have the time” is too often an escape. Once we get to a certain age, when we are generally considered to be grown-ups, we are expected to have developed time management skills. In many instances, “I don’t have the time” has the same meaning as “I am not willing to make the time”. Sure, we’re all busy, but in the end, it’s a matter of which is more important.

4. It doesn’t grow on trees or fall from the sky like raindrops. You make the time as well as most of the related decisions about what is important. 5. If you don’t decide on the use of your time, the decision will be taken away from you. It’s really up to us to decide on how to balance and manage time, and that’s a challenge.

A. No one gives you the time.

B. After all, it’s so convenient as an excuse.

C. The key is what criteria you rely on to make decisions.

D. The distinction here between them is blurry (模糊不清的) and subjective.

E. Be aware it’s the world’s most common excuse, whether you speak it out or not.

F. But it does mean we need to develop a clear approach to time management.

G. Actually if we try to rearrange our time, or make a sacrifice, we can make it.

What makes a good school?

I'm a parent of two elementary students．The experience that my children are going through now in the elementary school is so different from mine when I was at their age．What I think of a good school is communication between teachers．students and parents． 1. Parent-teacher communication guarantees that a child is educated in the same way and in turn a child will build special bonds in communication between their teachers and parents．

2. My children return home telling me that their teachers ignore their questions when they raise their hands and don’t talk much．On the other hand，I feel the same when I write notes to school． 3. This is telling me there is a lack in communication from the school teachers nowadays as their life is so overwhelmed by the over-crowded schools we have in the US．

However．choosing a career in education is not just for a good job．A teacher should really have heart in touching every child’s life． 4. Even now，I still remember all my elementary school teachers’ names． 5. The answer lies in the fact that they spent every minute of their precious time helping me and answering all my questions with patience．When you have teachers who are willing to spend time for any child and communicate with parents，it is what I consider a GREAT school for a child to attend，not just GOOD．

A．I don’t get any response from the teachers to my questions，not even a one-word response．

B．There are different ways of communication, according to different cultures．

C．Why is that?

D．Strong communication is very important to a child’s education．

E．I feel that schools nowadays don’t communicate with parents enough and neither is involvement．

F．My elementary school teachers all touched my life．

G．What do you think of it?

Today my classmate and I went to a farm for a trip. I get up at six o’ clock and we set off by bus. On the bus, some of us sang, and some of us talked. We all had good time. Two hours late, we arrived at the gate of the farm, that the farmers were waiting to give us a warm welcome. After we were shown around the big farm, they began to plant trees. It was really a good way to getting close to nature and protect the environment at the same time. Next , we had a picnic and it was great fun to eat on the open air. Finally, we went home at half past four. Although all of us was tired, our trip was really very more unforgettable.

The world is filled with smart, talented, educated and gifted people. We meet them every day. A few days ago, my car was not running well. I pulled it into a garage and the young mechanic had it fixed in just a few minutes. He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine. I was amazed. The sad truth is: Great talent is not enough.

I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100, 000 a year. A business consultant who specializes in the medical trade was telling me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially. It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase, “They are one skill away from great wealth.”

There is an old saying that goes, “Job means just over broke (破產(chǎn))' ”. And unfortunately, I would say that the saying applies to millions of people. Because school does not think financial intelligence is intelligence, most workers “live within their means”. They work and they pay the bills. Instead I recommend to young people to seek work for what they will learn, more than what they will earn.

When I ask the classes I teach, “How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald’s?” almost all the students raise their hands. I then ask, “So if most of you can cook a better hamburger, how come McDonald’s makes more money than you?” The answer is obvious: McDonald’s is excellent at business systems. The reason so many talented people are poor is because they focus on bui1ding a better hamburger and know little or nothing about business systems. The world is filled with talented poor people. They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.

1.The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that __________.

A. he has a sharp sense of hearing

B. he is ready to help others

C. he is just one of the talented people

D. he knows little about car repairing

2.The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by__________.

A. spend more than they can afford

B. live within what they earn

C. live in their own circle

D. do in their own way

3.Why do talented people earn so little according to the author?

A. They don't work hard enough.

B. They have no specialized skills.

C. They don't make full use of their talents.

D. They lack financial intelligence.

4.The main purpose of the author is to tell us___________.

A. why so many talented people are poor

B. what schools should teach students

C. how young people can find a satisfactory job

D. how McDonald's makes much money

Last Sunday, it was my father’s funny day. After supper, my father went to see the film. But in our surprise, he came back just about half an hour later. I asked him what was the matter. He smiled and told us about the funny thing what had happened in the cinema. He was sitting in his seat while a woman came to her and said the seat was hers. Surprising, they looked at their ticket carefully, only to find the seats shown in their tickets were the same while the colors were different. So they looked at the tickets carefully. After a while, my father apologized to the woman, saying, “Sorry, I make a mistake. Take this seat, please.” The fact was that his ticket found out under the glass on his desk was for the film a month ago.

Even before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family. Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, “Mum, I can’t peel potatoes. I have only one hand.”

Mum never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes,” she told me. “And don’t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”

In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, and I went home crying.

That night I told Mum about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “we’ll see about that” look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, mum looked carefully at the bars.

“Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow. Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung I reached.

I’ll never forget the next time, crossing the rungs; I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.

One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mum came into my room. “Mum,” I said, weeping, “none of the boys would dance with me.”

For a long time, I didn’t hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, honey, someday you’ll be beating those boys off with a bat.” Her voice was faint and cracking. I peeked out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf. She had never let me see her tears.

1.Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably to describe Mum’s attitude when she made the child peel potatoes?

A. Cautious B. Serious

C. Strict D. Considerate

2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 imply?

A. Mum believed every aim could be achieved if you stuck to it.

B. The race across monkey bars was not difficult enough for a child to give up.

C. Mum was determined to prove she herself was better than the teacher.

D. What the child had said brought Mum great attraction and curiosity.[

3.When the child looked down at the kids, they were standing with their mouths open because ________.

A. they felt sorry for what they had done before

B. they were afraid the author might fall off and get hurt

C. they wanted to see what the author would do on the bars

D. they were astonished to find the author’s progress

4.The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is ________.

A. the last incident was sad enough to make Mum weep

B. the child’s experience reminded Mum of that of her own

C. Mum could solve any problem except the one in the last paragraph

D. Mum suffered more in the process of the child’s growth actually
