高三英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
One day a little boy, annoyed by his father's decision for him to become a grocer, decides that he will never grow up. Grocery is a dull job and staying a child is his protest against it. This strange little boy-man, never separated from a tin drum he is always banging, is our hero of the table. It covers three crucial decades of 20th century history. Little Oscar Matzerath will experience love, war and imprisonment in a story that paints an unforgettable picture of Central Europe between 1923 and 1954.
This is an overview of the story of The Tin Drum, the most famous work by the German Nobel-winning author Günter Grass, who passed away on April 13 at the age of 87. The Tin Drum also established Grass as one of the leading authors of Germany. It also set a high bar of comparison for all of his following works. Just as his best-known fiction is both the story of an individual and of an age, so it is that Grass' life cannot be understood without referring to the history of Germany. He was called "Germany's conscience", because he reminded Germans of a past during the Second World War (1933-1945) that many would have rather forgotten.
This sometimes made him unpopular. Many Germans did not agree in 1989 when he said that East Germany and West Germany should remain separate, as a united country would be too strong and threaten the world's peace. And Grass was called a hypocrite when he revealed in his memoir
Peeling the Onion (2006) that he had been a teenage member of the Waffen-SS, the Nazi (纳粹) Party's fighting force. The man who had blamed the actions of others had a less-than-perfect record himself.
Grass was a man of the pen and the page and also a man with a gift for speaking to the public.
His writing was noisy and annoying, but one had to listen to it, a little like the sound of the drum banged by his most famous literary creation.
1.In The Tin Drum, the hero ________.
A. decides he will never grow up to escape from the war
B. doesn't want to become a grocer as his father expects
C. refuses to be separated from the tin drum he is playing
D. has an unforgettable experience involving love and hatred
2.What does the underlined word "hypocrite" mean?
A. Someone who has justice on his side and pursues perfection.
B. Someone who enjoys blaming others for their own mistakes.
C. Someone who is unwilling to believe there is good in people.
D. Someone who pretends to be more virtuous than one really is.
3.It can be inferred from the article that ________.
A. Oscar Matzerath's stories were modeled on Grass's own childhood life
B. critics applauded Grass's argument for continued separation of Germany
C. Grass's life and works can be best understood from a historical perspective
D. no other writer in Germany could be Grass's equal in perfect personal record
4.What is the author's purpose in writing the article?
A. To analyze what has made The Tin Drum so popular in Germany.
B. To introduce the readers to Günter Grass and his most famous work.
C. To present the history of Germany through the pen and page of Grass.
D. To give some background information about Grass's early life as a writer.

The boy sat on his chair, with his hands above the keyboard. He thought about what to write.
He recalled that the competition deadline was merely a week away. But he still had not even started on his piece. He looked at the brochure again.“WRITING COMPETITION！” the title read. His mom had encouraged him to enter the writing competition, and now he was taking it on as his personal task for the holidays.
As the boy reflected on his previous writing efforts, he realized how hopeless his task of winning was. Every story he ever wrote was based on other stories. He had little imagination, and unfortunately, imagination was the key to writing.
Suddenly, he had a brainwave. This time, he came up with an original and imaginative story.
The words shot towards him like a storm of leaves. Words were coming easily, flowing through him, faster than he could type. He typed faster than he ever had before. He continued to type, amazed how easy writing this story was. The boy could not stop writing. He looked at the word count and saw the number “248” staring right back at him. He was not even halfway yet.
Then he heard his mother’s call of saying time for bed. He continued writing the piece, ignoring her. He had to make up for the time he had lost in thinking about a topic to write.
Finally, he finished. The word count now read “498”.
“Perfect，” he thought, “just under the word limit.” He knew this was the story that would win.
He went to the website and searched for the competition. He found the page but there was no “Enter” button.
Confused, he then reread the page again. It read COMPETITION CLOSED.
1.What caused the boy to take part in the writing competition?
A.A new computer.
B.The prize money.
C.His own interest.
D.His mom’s encouragement.
2.How did the boy finish his earlier writing?
A.His mom helped him.
B.He copied others’ ideas.
C.His friends assisted him.
D.He used his imagination.
3.Why did the boy delay his writing?
A.Because he was terribly lazy.
B.Because he didn’t know what to write.
C.Because he wasn’t confident.
D.Because he read too many stories.
4.Which might be the maximum word limit for each entry?
A.100. B.250.
C.500. D.1000.
