高三英语完型填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
When I was young I wanted to be a model，so when a national contest was staged，I convinced my parents to take me for an audition (试演)．I was selected and told I had potential.They said that for only $900 I could attend a weekend event which dozens of the most prestigious (有声望的) modeling agencies from around the world would attend.At 13，my hopes of fame and fortune clouded all judgement and I begged my parents to let me go.We have never been rich，but they saw my enthusiasm and agreed.
I imagined being signed by some famous model companies.For months，any boredom or disappointment I faced was pushed aside because I knew I would soon have the chance to be real model.I thought I would grace the covers of famous magazines!
Of course，I wasn't signed，but what hurt the most was being told that if I grew to 5′9″(about 1.75 metres) I could be a success.I prayed for a growth spurt (冲刺) because I could not imagine giving up my dream.I made an appointment with a local modeling agency and the agent demanded $500 for classes.$500 for a photo shoot，and $300 for other expenses.My parents only agreed after hours and hours of my begging.
The agency sent me out on a few auditions，but with every day I didn't receive a call，I grew more depressed.The_final_straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial modeling.There was an open call in New York City.We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting，only to be told that I was too short.I was devastated (极度不安的)．
Years later，I realized that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I didn't actually love modeling，just the idea of it.I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal.The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future.
1.What's the main reason why the author wanted to be a model?
A．She won a national contest.
B．She wanted to get reputation and wealth.
C．She was urged by some modeling agencies.
D．She had full potential to be a successful model.
2.What's the author's parents' attitude toward her dream?
A．Encouraging. B．Worried.
C．Doubtful. D．Enthusiastic.
3.What was it that made the author end her attempt to become a model?
A．Her parents were strongly against it.
B．She realized that it was impossible for her.
C．Even a local modeling agency turned her down.
D．She realized that she didn't actually love the idea of modeling.
4.The underlined phrase “The final straw” probably means ________.
A．the last in a series of bad things that happen to make someone very upset，angry，etc...
B．the final result that she was admitted by the model company.
C．the final audition given by the agency.
D．the decision that she made at last not to be a model any more.
5.What did the author learn from her experience of struggling to be a model?
A．Where there's a will there's way.
B．Being a model is not that easy.
C．We should have our own judgement and should not just follow others.
D．We might set unpractical goals but the experience can help us grow.

Children, especially boys, tend to idealize their fathers when they are young．Every little boy wants to grow up to be just like his father, and every little girl thinks her father is the smartest man on the earth．It’s not very easy to be a good father, but it’s not that difficult either．Children will truly enjoy spending time with their fathers, not just when they are kids, but even when they are adults．
Not all children communicate well with their fathers．Communication is often left to mothers, while fathers dispense advice as and when necessary．Don’t expect all conversations to centre around the dinner table．Go to your children’s bedrooms and talk to them about school, their teachers or their friends．Remember that the conversation cannot be one-sided．When your children open up to you, you also need to open up to them．
If your children come home from school feeling upset, go up to them and ask them what is the matter．And if it is something which seems to you to be a silly reason to be upset, don’t voice your opinion．It may be silly to you, but to your children it is important enough．So don’t wave the topic away by telling them not to bother about such stupid things．Simply discussing their problems with them will help them feel better．
Don’t shy away from having discussions about your teenage children’s love lives．Generally speaking, your children are definitely not going to discuss intimate details with you．Try to let them know that you are relaxed about topics on love．Tell your children how you met your wife．It is perfectly normal for children to go through feelings for the opposite sex as they grow up, and by keeping the topic closed for discussion, you are only shutting them off from discussing their feelings with you．All they will do is turn to their friends．
1.To children their fathers are usually very _____．
A．kind B．great C．serious D．strong
2.From the second paragraph we can know that _____．
A．some children don’t like their fathers at all
B．talking with children around the dinner table is unnecessary
C．it is better for fathers to communicate more with their children
D．mothers should communicate less with their children．
3.Suppose your children are worried about something you should _____．
A．have a talk with them Ｂ．express your opinion
C．keep silent D．let them alone
4.Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “intimate” in Paragraph 4?
A．Public B．Personal C．Strange D．Serious
高三英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析
Geena David knew she wanted to be a movie star when she was very young．She was not sure what gave her the idea, but she wanted to look like a movie star．“I have a lot of pictures from my childhood of me wearing sunglasses,” she says．“I used to wear them to watch TV．”
Early movie actors started wearing sunglasses not because they looked good, but because their eyes hurt．The lights used on movie sets were extremely bright and could cause a painful problem known as “Klieg eyes”．It was named after the Klieg brothers who invented the lights．Actors wore sunglasses to give their eyes a rest．But when movie stars began wearing their sunglasses in public, they quickly became a must．
Eventually actors started wearing sunglasses in their movies as well as on the street．Audrey Hephburn wore ultra-cool Ray-Ban sunglasses in the 1961 movie, Breakfast at Tiffany’s．As a result, Ray-Ban sunglasses started to appear more and more in the movies．In 1979, Ray-Ban “Wayfarers” were worn by Jake and Elwoo d in The Blue Brothers．Tom Cruise wore Ray-Ban “Aviator” sunglasses in the 1986 hit, Top Gun．Then in 1997, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones made Ray-Ban “Predator” sunglasses famous in Men in Black．
Of course sunglasses aren’t just a fashion statement．The main reason to wear sunglasses is to protect our eyes against UV radiation．UV radiation can damage our eyes, so people now choose their sunglasses carefully．But you don’t have to give up style for safety．The choice of frames and lenses available these days is huge．So you can protect your eyes and still be the coolest person on the beach．
1.What is mainly discussed in this passage?
A．The use of sunglasses． B．The history of sunglasses．
C．The sunglasses wearing． D．Why movie stars like to wear sunglasses．
2.Why did Geena David like to wear sunglasses?
A．She was a movie star．
B．She wanted to follow a movie star．
C．Wearing sunglasses was good for her eyes．
D．It was good to wear sunglasses when watching TV．
3.Early actors’ eyes hurt because ______．
A．they wore sunglasses B．they went out in the sun too much
C．the lights on movie sets were too bright D．their scripts were written in very small writing
4.We may know from this passage that ______．
A．Audrey Hephburn was a famous film star
B．Ray-Ban is the name of sunglasses maker
C．Sunglasses made Top Gun the hit in 1986
D．Men in Black must be an advertisement of sunglasses
5.Now people wear sunglasses ______．
