高二英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
In 1992, when Xi Jinping worked in Fuzhou, he came across a newspaper report about “My Guling,” written by a Chinese student studying in the United States.
The report described an American couple who tried in vain to revisit a southern Chinese town called Guling, where the husband, Milton Gardner, had spent 10 years of his childhood before moving back to the united States in 1911.
Gardner, who later became a professor of physics at the University of California, had been longing to revisit Guling since 1979 when the diplomatic ties between China and the US were set up. But he had never made the trip due to his failing health.
According to the newspaper, Gardner kept uttering(叨念) “Kuling, Kuling” in the final hours of his life.
After he passed away, his wife Elizabeth Gardner decided to carry out the dying wish of her husband and since then made several trips to China in an attempt to find the small town that her husband had so much affection about. Her efforts ended in vain as she had few clues(线索)about the exact spot of the town. But a Chinese student lodging(寄宿)at the Gardners’ recognized the small town as Guling near Fuzhou City from postmarks on some old mails of late Mr. Gardner. The student wrote an article about Gardners’ story and sent it to the People’s Daily, one of the major newspapers in China.
“After I read the story, I immediately contacted Mrs. Gardner through the departments concerned and invited her to visit Guling,” Xi told the media. Thanks to Xi’s arrangement, Mrs. Gardner finally arrived at Guling in August 1992. She met there with nine childhood friends of her husband, all of whom were over 90 years old at that time.
It was a happy occasion for Mrs. Gardner, who was later awarded the honorary citizenship of Fuzhou City, Xi recalled.
“She said that she would value this bond(纽带)of friendship between her husband and the people of China, because after seeing for herself the beautiful Guling and the warmth and goodwill of the Chinese people, she now understood why her husband had been so deeply attached to China.”
“I believe there are many such touching stories between our two peoples,” said Xi.
1. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Mr. and Mrs. Gardner were brought up in a southern Chinese town.
B. The name of the town changed shortly after Milton Gardner left.
C. Guling might have originally been pronounced as Kuling in English.
D. Mrs. Gardner knew exactly where the small town lay in south China.
2.According to the passage, Mr. Gardner_________.
A. lived and worked in Guling for ten years
B. had few memories about the small Chinese town
C. kept in touch with his childhood playmates until he passed away
D. was deeply impressed by Guling’s people and environment
3.What played the most important part in making Milton Gardner’s wish come true?
A. The help from newspapers.
B. Mrs. Gardner’s hard efforts.
C. Mr. Xi’s concern and arrangement.
D. The Chinese student’s letter to Mr. Xi.
4.From the passage we can learn that_____.
A. the Gardners’ story is a moving one with a happy ending
B. the Chinese student studying in the US must be from Fuzhou
C. the mails which became clues of Guling were sent by Gardner
D. the American couple revisited China trying to find Guling but in vain
高二英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析
I read a newspaper article about a new concept. The idea is simple, but revolutionary: combining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building. The children and the residents (住户) eat lunch together and share activities such as music, painting and gardening. In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading stories to the children and, if a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a hug.
Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young. There are many reasons for this, including the breakdown of the extended family, working parents with no time to care for aging relations, and smaller flats with no room for grandparents. But the result is the same: increasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children. It’s a major problem in many societies.
That’s why inter-generation (代际的) programs are growing in popularity all over the world. There are examples of successful actions. Using young people to teach IT skills to older people is one obvious example. Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another. One successful scheme in London pairs young volunteers with old people who are losing their sight. The young people help with practical things such as writing letters, reading bank statements and helping with shopping, and the older people can pass on their knowledge and experience to their young visitors. For example, a retired judge may be paired with a teenager who wants to study law.
But it isn’t only the individuals concerned who gain from inter-generational activities. The advantages to society are huge too. If older people can understand and accept the youth of today, there will be less conflict in a community. And we can use the strengths of one generation to help another. Then perhaps getting old won’t be so sad after all.
1.Why does the author mention the newspaper article he read?
A. To argue for a new concept. B. To introduce the topic of the text.
C. To show his interest in the topic. D. To draw our attention to a social problem.
2.What is the purpose of the inter-generational programs?
A. To ask the old to care for the young.
B. To teach the young to respect the old.
C. To bring the old and the young together.
D. To provide a good job opportunity for the young.
3.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The examples of inter-generational activities.
B. The inter-generational programs all over the world.
C. The inter-generational programs’ benefits to individuals.
D. The reasons why inter-generational programs enjoy popularity.
4.What may be the best title for the text?
A. Being old is no more sad.
B. Offer a warm home for the young.
C. A new concept in caring for the old is born.
D. Build bridges between the old and the young.

Writing an article for your school newspaper can be exciting and rewarding, especially when you proudly see your name in print.
Decide on a topic.1.If you plan to write a news article for a monthly newspaper, you will need to take into consideration whether the topic will be relevant before printing. To get ideas for stories, listen to your fellow students and find out what has them talking.

Attract the readers with a lead. As the beginning of a newspaper story, a lead has to be direct, but it does not mean you don’t need to entertain the reader as well. 3.Your lead must be short, but it must also state as many of the essential parts of you story as possible.

Write, edit, rewrite and repeat as necessary.

Can you believe everything that you read? It seems as if every day, some new articles come out about a new discovery about this or that. For example, water is bad for you, or good for you. The answer depends on which scientific study has just come out. People cannot decide which food items are healthy, how pyramids were constructed, and why dinosaurs disappeared. When we look for answers we sometimes can believe persuasive researches and scientists. But how trustworthy are they really? Here are two examples of scientific hoaxes (骗局).
As far back as 1726, Johann Beringer was fooled by his fellow scientists into thinking he had made an amazing discovery. The fossils of spiders, lizards, and even birds with the name of God written on them in Hebrew were unlike anything that had been found before. He wrote several papers on them and was famous for those only to have it revealed that they were planted by jealous colleagues to ruin his reputation.
When an early human being was discovered in 1912, scientists at this time were wild with excitement over the meaning it had for the theory of evolution. There were hundreds of papers about this Piltdown man over the next fifty years until it was finally discovered to be a complex hoax. The skull (头骨) of a man had been mixed with the jawbone of an orangutan (猩猩) to make the ape (猿) man.
The next time you read the exciting new findings of a study of the best scientist, do not automatically assume that it is true. Even qualified people can get it wrong. Though we certainly should not ignore scientific research, we do need to take it with a grain of salt. Just because it is accepted as the truth today does not mean it will still be trustworthy tomorrow.
1.What is the reason why Johann Beringer was fooled?
A.His fellow scientists wanted to make fun of him.
B.His workmates are eager to become famous too.
C.These scientists made a mistake because of carelessness.
D.His colleagues was jealous of him and did so to destroy his fame.
2.The excited scientists thought that this Piltdown man ________.
A.was in fact a complex hoax
B.was a great scientific invention
C.contributed to the theory of evolution
D.had the skull like that of an ape
3.What does the underlined phrase “with a grain of salt” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Happily. B.Generally.
C.Doubtfully. D.Completely.
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Hebrew is probably a kind of language.
B.Truths of science will never be out of time.
C.People believe scientists because they are persuasive.
D.We are advised to believe famous scientists.
