高三英语完形填空简单题查看答案及解析

Anthony was sad. He was, as he put it, “not very bright” and couldn’t win the attention of his very wealthy parents, who preferred his “clever” older brother. At age 8, Anthony was sent away to a boarding school in his native England, even though he screamed and pleaded with（恳求）his parents year after year not to send

him. “The thought was ,it would be good for me,” he recalled.

It was not. Anthony did badly in his studies, had few friends and was bullied for five years. “My teachers couldn’t have had a lower opinion of me,” he said. “I wasn’t even smart enough to rebel. The one thing I remember from the very earliest age was the desire to write. When I was 10 years old, I remember asking my parents to get me a typewriter for my birthday because I wanted to be a writer.”

Now, at 55, Anthony is one of the world’s most successful children’s book authors. His Alex Rider series has sold more than 5 million copies，and the eighth book featuring the young spy, Crocodile Tears, has come out.

The Alex Rider books tell the adventures of 14-year-old Alex Rider, an agent for the British intelligence agency M16.

Anthony says he doesn’t try to write for kids; it just comes out that way.“ I have a feeling that it has something to do with purity and simplicity. I give as little information as is necessary to describe the room, the character in the room, and get on with the action,” he said.

The style has also made Anthony a successful writer of television shows for adults in Britain because, he says, writing books for kids is a lot like writing television for grown-ups: In both cases, it’s all about entertaining people with a good story.

Now, Anthony couldn’t be happier with his life. He sums up his success:“…you can be anything you want to be if you just believe in yourself. I do believe it completely.”

1.Which of the following is true of Anthony?

A. He was the beloved child of his family.

B. Although he is successful, he isn’t very happy.

C. He places more emphasis on the characters’ behavior in his stories.

D. Studying in a boarding school proved a good choice for him.

2.At boarding school , Anthony’s teachers_____________.

A. often criticized him.                              B. showed great concern for him.

C. encouraged him to be a writer.                D. thought little of his ability.

3.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Anthony’s popular books—Alex Rider series

B. Alex Rider, a popular character

C. Anthony, a successful children’s book author

D. Special writing style

4.What advice does Anthony give to readers?

A. Confidence is the key to success.     B. Hardship teaches valuable lessons.

C. Internet is the best teacher.                     D. Failure is the mother of success.

Eduardo reached into his backpack, searching for his cell phone. He was scared of having to spend the spring break at Aunt Letty’s farm. Although he had protested, his parents decided that spending time on the farm would be a great experience for him. They grew up on a farm and believed that responsibility, hard work, and respect for the land were valuable lessons.

“So, have you ever ridden a horse?” Aunt Letty asked, trying to turn his attention away from his phone. “Hmmm, no.” he answered. “Well, we’ve got a nice calm horse I think you’ll like. Hercules-sounds like a beast, but he’s basically a gentle giant-big, but kindhearted!” she said, smiling. Eduardo glanced at his aunt, annoyed that he was expected to work. He tried to text a friend but there was no cell reception.

The next few days were busy. The crow of the roosters woke them up, and they had breakfast before dawn. Then they went out to the barn to get the feed while the animals waited to be fed. The afternoons were filled with transporting hay, cleanup, and caring for the animals. At dusk, when the farm was finally quiet, Aunt Letty stretched her arms out and inhaled(吸气), “Just take a deep breath of that sweet country air!” Eduardo, exhausted from his chores, was unable to appreciate his work.

On the third day, without warning, Aunt Letty announced, “It’s time to meet Hercules.” She led Eduardo into the stables. Aunt Letty was right. Hercules was remarkable!

Aunt Letty held her hand open for Eduardo to take. Reluctantly, he let her guide his hand toward Hercules and allowed the magnificent creature to sniff his palm. Softly, Hercules rubbed its nose and mouth against him.

“It feels like velvet(天鹅绒)!” Eduardo beamed. An hour later, Eduardo was scratching Hercules on his neck and offering him carrots.

That night, as they headed toward the house, Eduardo was inspired. His arms spreading wide, he inhaled and said, “Take a breath of that sweet country air!”

1.Why did Eduardo’s parents send him to the farm?

A.To better his views on life. B.To show him the beauty of nature.

C.To change his attitude to Aunt Letty. D.To prevent him using a mobile phone.

2.What can we infer about Eduardo from the last four paragraphs?

A.He discovered the horse was wild.

B.He realized working hard would pay off.

C.He came to appreciate the life on the farm.

D.He found Aunt Letty impatient but inspiring.

3.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.Aunt Letty’s Farm B.Sweet Country Air

C.A Remarkable Horse D.Busy Country Life
