高三英语完形填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches(沟渠)along the highway I travel daily to work.
There is one particular blue flower that has always caught my eye. I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours; the afternoon sun is too warm for it. Every day for approximately two weeks, I see those beautiful flowers.
This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Every day I drove past the flowers thinking, "I'II stop on my way home and dig them." "Gee, I don't want to get my good clothes dirty.,." Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding tool one year for my trunk to be used for that expressed purpose.
One day on my way home from work, I was upset to see that the highway department had removed the ditches
and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, "Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done
it when you first saw them blooming this spring."
A week ago we were shocked and sad to learn that my oldest sister-in-law has a serious brain disease. She is20 years older than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven't been as close as we all would have liked. I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful
memories that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.
1.Why does the writer want to start a wildflower garden in her yard?
A.Because the flowers bloom only in the morning hours.
B.Because she can see the flowers every day for two weeks.
C.Because the flowers can remind her of her oldest sister-in-law.
D.Because she enjoys the way of life in company with the flowers.
2.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A.The blue flowers in the ditches always draw my attention.
B.We don't get on well with the sister-in-law in practice.
C.I never stopped to dig the flowers for some reason.
D.The sister-in-law lives far from us.
3.According to the passage, the writer will .
A.stop to find the flowers whenever she drives along the highway
B.plant a variety of flowers in the garden in her yard in future
C.get as wonderful memories with the sister-in-law as before
D.get more close to the sister-in-law in the following days
4.What is the theme of the story?

Old-fashioned carpooling (拼车) where a group of people take turns driving each other to work has always faced a resistance. In a study by ABC News, 84％of those who drive to work say that they still do it alone. 1. For example, sometimes they simply cannot find anyone to share a ride with.
2. NuRide, a company providing online carpooling service, offers daily travelers not just a web-based list of would-be carpoolers but also a way to arrange a trip online. Here’s how it works: rider seekers enter the positions where their trip will begin and end, the time they want to leave and if they’re willing to drive or just ride in someone else’s car. The website’s search engine then looks for matches and makes lists of the names of traveling companions, along with the car model and the exact time and place to meet for each trip. 3. Then they meet their car mates when it’s time to go.
4. They are required to provide the name of their employer and a work e-mail address. Both need to be checked before being listed on the website.
So far, NuRide has arranged more man 50,000 rides on the website. 5.
A. NuRide users aren’t riding with total strangers.
B. It has resulted in 1.4 million fewer miles driven.
C. They insisted that carpooling is just too inconvenient.
D. Now technology makes carpooling easier and more fun.
E. It is an environmentally friendly and economical way to travel.
F. Carpooling reduces travel cost, such as fuel cost and stress of driving.
G. People who want to share the ride can show their interest in joining in online.

If you live in a big city, there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route, and it’s not just overcrowded subway trains.
Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she can’t put up with is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator(自动扶梯) in subway stations. “Escalators help us move faster and save time. It isn’t a place to rest,” the 24-year-old says. “I often see tourists block the way with their suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours. It annoys me to no end.”
Admitting she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where “stand right, walk left” signs are often ignored.
The logic behind the “stand right, walk left” escalator etiquette(礼仪) seems obvious. Even though you may want to catch your breath while you’re transported up or down, you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and catch the train.
Many cities’ escalators, including London’s and Beijing’s, use the “stand right, walk left” system to speed up the flow of people. (Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead.) But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety reasons. In Hong Kong’s subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to “stand still” on escalators. Even so, most people in this fast-paced city observe the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
But the people who stand on escalators defend themselves by telling the walkers not to be so impatient. The BBC quotes one stander as saying: “If the person is in such a rush, why not just take the stairs? Even when the escalator is packed and there’s nowhere to move, I see these same people complaining about not being able to pass.”
Whatever the escalator etiquette is in the place you live or visit, do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, don’t stay at the end of the escalator, and if someone is blocking your way, a simple “excuse me” is enough.
1.In the second paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers to ________.
A. the author’s living in the big city of Hong Kong
B. being crowded on the subway trains in rush hours
C. people’s blocking the way or chat on the escalators
D. people’s standing on the right side resting
2.When on the escalator, a majority of local people in Hong Kong ________.
A. stand still as the railway stations require
B. ignore the “stand right, walk left” signs
C. use the stairs instead of escalators
D. follow the “stand right, walk left” etiquette
3.What can be inferred from the 6th paragraph?
A. Not everyone follows the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
B. The BBC is against the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
C. People should be patient and take the stairs if possible.
D. People shouldn’t complain about the crowded escalators.
4.Which of the following statements is the writer’s opinion?
A. People should stand right no matter where they are.
B. People should do as the Romans do and consider others.
C. People should do as they like on the escalators.
D. People should be seriously criticized when they block the way.
