高二英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
When I was 17, I read a magazine article about a museum called the McNay, once the home of a watercolorist named Marian McNay. She had requested the community to turn it into a museum upon her death. On a sunny Saturday, Sally and I drove over to the museum. She asked, "Do you have the address? ""No, but I'll recognize it, there was a picture in the magazine. "
"Oh, stop. There it is!”
The museum was free. We entered, excited. A group of people sitting in the hall stopped talking and stared at us.
"May I help you?" a man asked. "No, "I said. "We're fine.” Tour guides got on my nerves. What if they talked a long time about a painting you weren't that interested in? Sally had gone upstairs. The people in the hall seemed very nosy(爱窥探的), keeping their eyes on me with curiosity. What was their problem? I saw some nice sculptures in one room. Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me. "Where do you think you are? " he asked. I turned sharply. "The McNay Art Museum!" He smiled, shaking his head. "Sorry, the McNay is on New Braunfels Street." "What’s this place?” I asked, still confused. "Well, it's our home." My heart jolted(震颤). I raced to the staircase and called out, "Sally! Come down immediately! "
"There's some really good stuff(艺术作品) up there." She stepped down, looking confused. I pushed her toward the front door, waving at the family, saying, "Sorry, please forgive us, you have a really nice place." Outside, when I told Sally what happened, she covered her mouth, laughing. She couldn't believe how long they let us look around without saying anything.
The real McNay was splendid, but we felt nervous the whole time we were there. Van Gogh, Picasso. This time, we stayed together, in case anything else unusual happened.
Thirty years later, a woman approached me in a public place. "Excuse me, did you ever enter a residence, long ago, thinking it was the McNay Museum?"
"Yes. But how do you know? We never told anyone."
"That was my home. I was a teenager sitting in the hall. Before you came over, I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in. I never felt lucky before. You thought it was a museum. My feelings about my home changed after that. I've always wanted to thank you."
1.What do we know about Marian McNay?
A.She was a painter.
B.She was a community leader.
C.She was a museum director.
D.She was a journalist.
2.Why did the author refuse the help from the man in the house?
A.She disliked people who were nosy.
B.She felt nervous when talking to strangers.
C.She knew more about art than the man.
D.She mistook him for a tour guide.
3.How did the author feel about being stared at by the people in the hall?
A.Puzzled. B.Concerned.
C.Frightened. D.Delighted.
4.Why did the author describe the real McNay museum in just a few words?
A.The real museum lacked enough artwork to interest her.
B.She was too upset to spend much time at the real museum.
C.The McNay was disappointing compared with the house.
D.The event happening in the house was more significant.
5.What could we learn from the last paragraph?

B.People should spend more time with their family.
C.People tend to be blind to the beauty around them.
D.People tend to educate teenagers at a museum.

Recently I read an article in a magazine. It was of a mother who was worried about his son just because of he always kept his hair long. The mother thought that was not right, but the son felt there was nothing unusually about it. Different generations have different opinions on the same thing. That is what is meaning by “ the generation gap”. We can see them in our daily lives. Most of our parents like listening to old song while young people prefer pop songs. Every time my father finds me listen to rock music, he always shouted, “Shut it off. It’s awful!” How can we deal the generation gap?

In their Sunday magazine, The New York Times recently put out an interesting nature article: "Why Do We Feed Wild Animals? " It seems that quite a few people do. Between 20 and maybe as high as 35 percent of families in Australia, Europe and the United States feed birds in their apartments, according to author Helen MacDonald. She writes that "Americans spend over $3 billion each year on food for wild birds". It's a costly sum for people to find some pleasure while helping the birds find a tasty meal.
Of course Helen MacDonald rightly points out that we are finding pleasure from just certain types of “acceptable” animals that we come across as cute. Who in their right mind would put out food to draw mice or cockroaches(蟑螂)? MacDonald also writes that having a diversity(多样性) of animals in your town or community can suggest the health of your neighborhood. For example, how many people would want to move to a place where only mice and cockroaches live? Often we choose to live in places where there are plenty of parks and a diversity of animals nearby. The decrease of just one animal species may suggest the deterioration of local habitat
In the end, living in peace with others is important, whether they're humans, birds, fish or other animals, even plants. We are all connected and all part of the natural environment. AS Helen Mac Donald points out in her article,growing up as a child with birdfeeders means a lot to her because it taught her" a lot about the habits of animals and how to understand their thoughts and needs. Animals are not humans, but they are like us enough to give us a special and strong sense of family relationships
1.What does Helen MacDonald agree?
A. Feeding wild birds makes many people happy.
B. People all over the world like raising birds
C. Americans spend too much protecting birds
D. It's a waste to give wild birds food
2.What can be learnt from Paragraph 2?
A. People couldn’t accept some animals
B. Wildlife can show the environment's quality.
C. People care more about their neighborhood
D. Animals usually live in peace with each other
3.What does the underlined word "deterioration" in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Worsening B. Use C. Influence D. Character
4.What does Helen think of her growing up as a child with birdfeeders?
A. It encouraged her to speak for birds
B. It helped her meet many birdfeeders
C. It made her learn more about animals
D. It taught her to value family relationships
