The old couple who lived in a cottage on the edge of the village were envied for the happiness of their marriage. They never quarreled and were always affectionate to one another. Sadly, after thirty-four years of this happiness, the husband became ill and died.
The wife was overcome with grief. Her children tried to comfort her, but to no avail. Her neighbors tried to comfort her, but with similar lack of success. Weeks and months went by, and still the woman was grieving; tears fell down her cheeks from morning till night.
Then a holy man came to the village. People told him about the woman, and asked him to try to help her. The holy man went to the woman’s house. Dressed in his rough woolen robe, he sat down with the grieving widow and listened, carefully, to her story. When she had spilled out all her sorrow, he reached into one of the deep pockets in his robe, and drew out a tiny, little mustard(芥末) seed. “I think I may have a cure for your grief,” he said. “I want you to go round the people in this region, and look for a family that has no sorrows. When you find this family, give them this little mustard seed, and then come back to me.
The woman set off in search of such a family. She visited every home in the district, and talked to the people. She listened to their stories, just as the holy man had listened to hers. In time, she almost forgot about the mustard seed, because every single family she met was carrying some kind of sorrow.
One day, she happened to meet the holy man again, and he stopped to ask how she was feeling. She was surprised at first, at his question, and then she suddenly remembered the mustard seed, still safely in her purse. “I’m sorry, I haven’t found a family without sorrows yet,” she told him. “But you yourself are cured of your grief,” he smiled. “The mustard seed is a great healer!”
1.What does the underlined word “grieving” mean?
A. amused B. sad C. angry D. astonished
2.What did the holy man ask her to do to end her sorrow?
A. to go to church for help.
B. to live with the family that has no sorrows with the mustard seed.
C. to help others so that she can feel the happiness from the bottom of her heart.
D. to find a family that is always happy and give them the mustard seed before returning to him.
3.How did the woman treat the families she visited?
A. She was a good listener.
B. She helped them to solve the problems they met.
C. She gave every family a mustard seed..
D. She told them her unfortunate story.
4.Who on the earth heals the woman’s grief?
A. The mustard seed B. Her children
C. The families in the district D. She herself

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
The small coastal town of Broome, in northwest Australia, is a remote village in the vast countryside.
There are no traffic jams and hardly any roads. There is only the massive Australian wild land, where some houses are 500 miles apart and some driveways are 50 miles long.
There seem to be only two main sources of entertainment out here: the sunset at the beach and Sun Pictures.
Sun Pictures is a very different movie theater:The seats are park benches and deck chairs, but you’re also welcome to sit on the grass.
It is the world’s oldest outdoor movie garden. Sun Pictures was built in 1916 on the other side of the globe from Hollywood. All the big films were shipped here and the lonely country was amazed.
Broome resident Pearl Hamaguchi has never traveled far from home. But in the Sun Pictures chairs, under the deep blue night sky, she has been almost everywhere.
“And we came back excited about Gregory Peck,” she recalled.
This is one of the few places left in the world where you can see two sets of stars at the same time-----one set in the sky, the other in the film.
Each night, dozens of people from around the world line up at the old wooden stand, with no computer in sight, and buy their tickets to the latest films.
Sun Pictures is also a museum, exhibiting projectors(放映机) that date back to the silent films, a portrait gallery of the famous people who never knew about this place---- even though they came here all the time.
Every once in a while, I’m told, you might find a non-ticket holder in your seat. That’s why it’s always a good idea to shake out your chair to make sure there are no spiders or scorpions.
“We’ve only had a couple of scorpion incidents but no one’s been stung yet,” said Aaron Mestemaker, a tourist visiting from Michigan.
Sun Pictures is a holy hall of movie history and a reminder that air conditioning and carpet are no match for grass and fresh air---even when the lizards steal the scene.
1.. The first two paragraphs want to show that__________.
A.living in Broome is inconvenient |
B.the life in Broome is boring |
C.few people like to live in Broome |
D.Broome is simple but vast |
2..Sun Pictures is different from other theaters because _________.
A.it is the most historical outdoor theater in the world |
B.the audience can either sit on chairs or on the grass |
C.it was built by some constructor from Hollywood |
D.all the films were imported here from Hollywood |
3.. Gregory Peck is most probably the name of_________.
A.a place | B.a film | C.a movie star | D.a country fellow |
4.. It can be inferred that the tourists in Broome are most attracted by ________.
A.its peacefulness | B.its beautiful sunset |
C.the Sun Pictures | D.the gallery of movie stars |
