高三英语七选五中等难度题查看答案及解析
When I worked in Swaziland, one day we went to an orphanage （孤儿院）．There we found a beautiful little girl named Tanzile．I gave her a sweet and she said something back to me in Si-swati, which the nurse next to me translated, “She wants another one — to give to her little sister．” I said “of course”．When we were going to leave, we passed by Tanzile’s house to say goodbye．To our surprise she seemed to be holding on to that extra sweet I had given her．I remember saying to the nurse “this little darling is clever — she has taken two for herself．”
But the nurse told us, “Tanzile is 7 now．Two years ago her mum and dad both died of AIDS．She was separated from her sister who was three at the time．Tanzile has not laid eyes on her since．But from then on whenever Tanzile receives anything from anyone, including food — she refuses to accept it, unless they give her two．” In fact, in the little mud hut where she lives, we find a pile of old things which she has been collecting to give to her sister one day．
People sometimes look at faces of African children and think that they are somehow different from our kids — that somehow they don’t feel pain or love．But that is not true．Their pain is deep．And so is their love．I can still remember the nurse trying to convince her that “if someone gives you food, you must accept it — even if it is only one piece and not two — for your own health．” And it was so hard for us to keep the tears from our eyes as she shook her head．Her hope and her love was all that she had．It mattered more than anything else．When I returned home that day, I was shocked to find that this was not an isolated story but others in the hospital knew of orphans just like Tanzile — waiting with a little pile of things in their hut, for their lovers who they haven’t seen so long．
I think of that old song — “when we’re hungry, love will keep us alive．”
1.From the passage we can learn Tanzile________．
A．is very clever B．knows her sister has died
C．has stored a lot for her sister D．doesn’t like sweets
2.How old was her sister when the author met with Tanzile?
A．Three years old． B．Four years old．
C．Five years old． D．Six years old．
3.What has the author learned from her experience in Africa?
A．Love is more important in life than anything else．
B．African children are different in a way．
C．African children should be treated fairly．
D．We should express our love in time．
4.The best title for the passage would be ________．
A．Give every child two sweets B．Tanzile’s love for her sister
C．One for my sister D．Change your attitude to African children

Miya volunteered abroad in Costa Rica with World Endeavors assisting at an orphanage(孤儿院)and teaching English at a school．
As a freshman at Yale University, Miya had plans to go to medical school．Knowing that her next two summers would be occupied doing research, Miya decided to go abroad the summer after her freshman year．“I wanted to improve my command of the Spanish language and learn about the culture and history of another country,” she explained．In the summer of 2014, Miya volunteered for six weeks in the World Endeavors program in Atenas, Costa Rica, working in an orphanage and teaching English to children in grades one through six．
“A long time before I left, I had positive expectations for the trip,” said Miya．But as the date grew closer she found herself getting more and more nervous．“I thought, what if my host family doesn’t like me? What if I get sick?”
Her fears, as fears often are, turned out to be unfounded．“The people were so supportive and loving,” said Miya．“I felt like I was part of the family．”
Miya’s host family had a large network of cousins who all lived within shouting distance． The family would cook together, and at night would go dancing, talk or eat ice cream．She noted that the World Endeavors staff on location—Diego and Mercedes, and Mercedes’ husband and daughter –were particularly helpful, taking her right to her neighborhood from the airport, and checking up periodically to make sure everything was going well．
While her nights were spent dancing, cooking, and talking with her host family, Miya’s days were occupied with the children of her host city．“I would teach in the morning, and work in the orphanage in the afternoon,” said Miya, whose placements were within walking distance from her host family．While the children were a lot of work, Miya felt a strong connection to the kids in the orphanage．
Miya noted that Costa Rica is one of the more developed countries in Central America． A nearby Internet café, for example, helped her to stay in touch with her family while she was away．And now, back in the United States, the Internet helps her keep in touch with her host family．Their correspondence continues in Spanish．And her host parents, Rosario and Jorge, recently sent Miya a Christmas card through the mail．
Back at school, Miya continues to pursue her instinct to improve education through volunteering． She participates in a mentoring group and works on a community health education program for high school students．Her time in Costa Rica, she says, “fits right into my interests in global health．”
1.What is World Endeavors?
A．It is a program to help people do voluntary job．
B．It is an orphanage in Costa Rica．
C．It is a school that needs English teachers．
D．It is a community that has health education program．
2.What can you know about Miya’s host family from the passage?
A．They took her to her neighborhood from the airport．
B．They checked up periodically to make sure everything was going well．
C．They had a large network of cousins who all lived far away from each other．
D．They treated her as a family member．
3.Which of the following is correct about Miya?
A．She taught English in a middle school in Costa Rica．
B．The orphanage she worked in is very close to her host family．
C．Her days were occupied with the children of her host family
D．She did not have much work when she worked in the orphanage．
4.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A．Miya is not doing some voluntary jobs back at school
B．She lost touch with her faimly while she was in Costa Rica．
C．She still corresponds with her host family on the internet in English．
D．The experience abroad fits into her interests in global health
5.What is the best title for the passage?
A．Miya, Volunteer in Costa Rica
B．Miya, Teach English in Costa Rica
C．Miya, Work in an Orphanage in Costa Rica
D．Miya, Study at Yale University

Last weekend, I was walking across the village green(草坪) when I saw an elderly gentleman on the bench, just overlooking the duck pond. I thought he looked a bit forlorn(被遗弃的) so I went over and sat next to him.
After a few 36 about how nice the weather was and how there were a lot of ducks in the pond today, he told me how he used to come with his wife and watch the children feed the ducks with their mums. They didn't have any 37 of their own..So they cherished being together even more.
He explained he had been married for 54 years 38 his wife died and how much he missed 39 all the little things with her, like a beautiful sunset. He now lives in a care home. I remarked at how wonderful it must've been to have been married for so long and to have so many happy memories. He took out a large 40 and wiped his eyes and said he had one regret that in all that time he 41 told her how much he really loved her.
He showed me a photograph of them when they were young. The photo was taken more than 50 years ago. He couldn't believe how the time had 42 . I tried to comfort him by explaining that his wife would be still 43 over him and he could talk to her 44 he wants and that she knows how much he loved her because she can see into his heart.
The old man tried to 45 for blurting out his life story but I hushed him and said how privileged I felt he could talk to me and how much it meant to me.
The 46 I learned from this chance encounter is that we must tell the ones close to us how much we love and care for them and not take them for granted.
Don't 47 your kind acts until tomorrow; do them today because time flies.

I still remember the days when l was a youthful student in an engineering school．I lived a casual life，without caring about the future．I smoked，drank with friends and made girl friends．Little did I realize that casualness would certainly lead to loss．
Two years had passed and l was staring down a report card that highlighted FAII in more than half the subjects．I didn’t care，at least not till my dad found out about it．You see．I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education，my dad financed me．
Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking．He lost his temper but he just told me，“Son，your allowance is cut in half from this moment on”．It hit me like a roundhouse kick（回旋踢） from Bruce Lee．I was jolted（震摇）out of my bones！I couldn’t comprehend how to pay off the debts that I had accumulated in college．I owed everybody money：the grocery store，the bars．the restaurants，my friends，etc．I was living a life filled with credit．
When I went back to college，I knew that if I don’t change the way I live my life I won’t be able to pay everybody off．So I decided to make some changes．drastic changes．I quit smoking，cut off from my friends who led me down the wrong road，starting hanging out in libraries and reading my engineering books．
One year later，I went from a miserable failure to a magna curn laude（优等成绩）．Life was never the same again．This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it，however small or large．Even today it still motivates me when I feel that l’m about to lose or give up．It reminds me that I can do it！
