Last night one of our 3 family dogs was hit and killed by a car in front of my mother’s house. The dogs became more or less, my mother’s children after her human children grew up and moved out and my father ran with a midlife crisis and left her. The one that was killed had bonded with my mom far more than the others. She is shocked and upset. I loved the dog, but my true sadness currently results from having to watch my mother experience another tragedy after everything she has been through in her life.
In the midst of all of this I have to sincerely applaud the driver of the vehicle, which feels wrong, but it's not.
I’ll start by stating it was not his fault. The dog chased(追赶) a deer into the road at night. In an effort to not hit the deer with his car he changed direction suddenly, not seeing the dog, leading to her deaths. He could have very easily continued on his way, but he did something that I hope I never forget. He did the right thing (in my eyes). The driver pulled over, carefully wrapped our dog in a blanket he got from his car, and carried her up to my mother's front door.
He was visibly shaking and very upset. He informed my mother of what happened and she broke down immediately. He consoled her the best a stranger could and waited with her while my sister rushed to her house. He left his information and offered assistance in anyway he could.
Yes, he is the man who hit and killed our dog-accidentally. What he really did was sparing my mother from discovering unexpectedly a horrible scene herself while searching for the dog. He had so many choices. Choices that were far easier than what he chose. He did the right thing and for that, thank you, stranger. You recovered my faith in humanity.
1.What can we learn about the author's mother?
A.She has suffered a lot in her life. B.She has grown up with her dogs.
C.She misses her husband very much. D.She has three dogs killed in an accident.
2.What's the author s attitude towards the dog-killer?
A.Doubtful. B.Indifferent. C.Critical. D.Praising.
3.What does the underlined word “consoled” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Encouraged. B.Followed. C.Comforted. D.Helped.
4.What is the best tide for the text?
A.An Unfortunate Accident B.Sadness over a Dog’s Death
C.An Easy-to-Make Choice D.Faith in Humanity Recovered

I’m going through it right now. Last night one of our three family dogs was hit and killed by a car in front of my mother’s house. The dogs became, more or less, my mother’s surrogate children after her human children grew up and moved out and my father ran with a midlife crisis and left her. The one that was killed had bonded with my mother far more than the others.
She is extremely shocked. I loved the dog, but my true sadness currently results from having to watch my mother bear another tragedy after everything she has been through in her life. In the midst of all of this, I have to sincerely applaud the driver of the vehicle, which feels wrong, but it’s not.
I’ll start by stating it was not his fault. The dog ran after a deer into the road at night. In an effort not to hit the deer with his car, he changed direction, not seeing the dog, resulting in its death. He could have very easily continued on his way, but he did something that I hope I never forget.
In my eyes, he did the right thing. The driver pulled over, carefully wrapped our dog in a blanket he got from his car to preserve its dignity, and carried it up to my mother’s front door.
He was visibly shaking and very upset. He informed my mother of what happened and she broke down immediately. He comforted her the best a stranger could and waited with her while my sister rushed to her house. He left his information and offered assistance in any way he could.
Yes, he is the man who hit and killed our dog accidentally. What he really did was spare my mother, and potentially my sister, from coming across a horrible scene themselves while searching for the dog. He had so many choices that were far easier to make than what he chose. He did the right thing and for that, thank you, Stranger. You restored my faith in humanity.
1.What do we know about the dog killed by the driver?
A.It was killed by the driver on purpose.
B.It lost its life during a fight against a deer.
C.It was a particular favorite of the author’s mother.
D.It got killed by hitting the deer while running after it.
2.What does the underlined part “feels wrong, but it’s not” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.The driver ought to answer for the dog’s death.
B.The author thought it sensible to praise the driver.
C.The author believed it was not the driver’s fault to kill the dog.
D.The driver should not take responsibility for the dog’s death at a11.
3.Which of the following can best describe the driver?
A.Self-condemned and considerate. B.Calm and far-sighted.
C.Reliable and generous. D.Irresponsible and unreasonable.

高三英语完型填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
Music died here last spring, or rather, it was killed by members of the school committee who ignored the importance of music as part of the high-school curriculum.
The committee decided that teaching students how to take a test is more important than a curriculum in which students can explore their interests in the arts as well as academics. Because the school system is running out of funding(资金), it needs to make sure that students pass the test or even more money will be lost. If students fail the state test,it is not the fault of music classes — they are failing because the “academic” classes are not adequate.
It is painful to think of how many students will be discouraged from singing, acting, and playing instruments because school programs are no longer offered. Many families cannot afford private music lessons, and many potential musicians may not find their calling if they are not exposed to it in school. The fact that the school committee thinks the arts are not worth the investment(投资) will certainly make some students believe the arts are not worth their time or support and the cycle will continue.
Teaching for a test does not shape students into complete, well-rounded people. It blocks the natural sense to create and express feelings through art — there is more to life than the analytical(善于分析的) thinking that math and English provide. What happens after a test? Sure, a student might graduate, but they will have limited knowledge — certainly not a good preparation for the real world.
1.Music is not included in the high school curriculum mainly because .
A. the school committee pays no attention to it
B. the students are not interested in it
C. the school is afraid of losing financial support
D. the state test is more important
2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The number of the classes determines students’ performance in the test.
B. The school committee completely influences students’ attitude towards art.
C. Students can be musicians only if they can afford private music lessons.
D. Quite a few students are discouraged from learning music at school.
3.We can learn that music and art can .
A. make students round-shaped people in future
B. motivate students in creativity and expression
C. provide students with analytical thinking
D. prevent students graduation from high school
4.The best title of the passage can be .
A. Who on earth killed music?
B. Can curriculum go without music?
C. Can we ignore the importance of music?
D. How to prepare for the real world?
