高二英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

I’m lying on my back in my grandfather’s orchard（果园）,looking up at the branches above me. It is one of the last days of summer. Already the days are shorter and the nights are cooler. Some kinds of apples are already ripe（成熟的）. Others will be ready to pick soon. I think of my grandmother’s apple pie(苹果馅饼), and how I used to make it with her. She died last year, before the apple harvest, and I have not had her pie since. I really miss her. I hear bees busily humming about, visiting the late summer flowers. The gentle hum of their wings nearly sends me to sleep.

The sky is as blue as my grandfather’s eyes. Above me, big white clouds race across the sky like pieces of cotton blowing in the wind. School starts in another week, and time seems to have slowed down.

“Sophie!” calls my grandfather. “Is that you?” I stand up, take his hand, and tell him all about my day as we walk through the orchard. We talk about apples, and bees, and Grandma. He tells me that he misses her too.

He puts his rough, brown farmer’s hand around my shoulder and pulls me close. “You know, Sophie,” he says, “ I spent the morning in the attic（阁楼）, and you’ll never guess what I found. It’s the recipe（烹饪法）for Grandma’s apple pie. I used to help her make it sometimes. I can’t do it all alone, but you used to help her too. Maybe between the two of us, we can work it out. Want to try?”

“ But it won’t be the same without Grandma,” I tell him.

“ That’s true,” he says, “ but nothing is the same without Grandma. Still, I don’t think that she would want us never to have another apple pie. What do you say?” I nod yes, and we walk towards home… towards an afternoon in the farmhouse kitchen, making Grandma’s famous apple pie.

1. We learn from the passage that Sophie________.

2.Both Sophie and her grandfather used to ________.

3.The underlined part in the last paragraph shows ________.

4. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?.

高二英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

I am in my 40s,but today I look more like a teenage girl. Not because I'm wearing the　 latest fashion or having a wild hair day. It's because I have a pimple(青春痘) that looks like a volcano getting ready to erupt on my chin.

“Mom, what is that?” my 8-year-old daughter Lucy exclaimed, pointing at the ugly bump on my face.

My in-laws were visiting and brought me a box of chocolates-one of my favorite foods. Eating properly seemed like a good idea until I was alone with that box of chocolates! I enjoyed them greatly, and my pimple proved my enthusiasm clearly.

Food can be a large block for me. Broccoli(西蓝花)seldom appeals to me, but baked goods with sugar or crispy chips certainly do. I have no problem dipping a large spoon into a jar of peanut butter or frosting to satisfy my desires. But you won't catch me tasting a　 spoonful of cottage cheese for a late-night snack.

Please don't misunderstand me. There is certainly a place for celebration foods such as cake and ice cream. But a regular serving of daily junk food robs me of the nutrition offered in the foods I eat.

I know I feel better after eating an apple than I do after eating a candy bar. It's so easy in　 our society to eat processed food out of boxes, bags, and at the drive-thru. But that ease comes at a cost: We suffer physically. Our taste buds may be very, lack nutrition, which opens the door to diseases, I'm trying to ask myself a few questions before reaching for a snack or making a meal: Is this really food?　　　

Is there something God made in it? Am I really hungry? Will I feel satisfied, but our bodies better after eating this?

1.What made the author feel she looked like a teenage girl?

A.Her wild hair. B.Her ugly face.

C.Her facial features. D.Her fashionable clothes.

2.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?

A.The author eats chocolates as food.

B.Chocolates may cause her pimples.

C.The author's parents-in-law often visit her.

D.The author eats chocolates to cure pimples.

3.What do you think of the author's eating habit?

A.It lacks protein. B.It isn't delicious.

C.It makes her healthy. D.It isn't a balanced diet.

4.What is the author's attitude towards processed food?

A.Favorable. B.Optimistic.

C.Positive. D.Critical.
