At the outbreak of war in September 1939, Doreen Luke was fifteen years old and had just begun work as an apprentice (学徒) in a department store selling clothing and household goods in her hometown of Bodmin in Cornwall. Doreen recalls the first day of war, “My mother was in the process of cooking the Sunday dinner when the Prime Minister announced over the radio that we were at war with Germany… From then on everything changed in our lives. Suddenly there was a different atmosphere.”

During the first years of the war, Doreen was part of a concert party that entertained civilians and service personnel in Cornwall. Although Doreen made effort for the war through her work in entertainment, she was eager to become involved with the war effort in a more direct way, “ My seventeenth birthday came in January 1941. Many of my friends were joining the Forces. I was becoming very restless. In any case soon at the age of eighteen I would be called up to go and work in a factory or to do some other vital war work but that didn’t appeal to me. I was more adventurous than that!”

Realizing that the Women’s Auxiliary Air Force(WAAF)was recruiting (招募) wireless operators, Doreen quickly made up her mind. At the age of eighteen, she received her call-up papers and became a member of the WAAF. After one year’s training, Doreen became a wireless operator at Bletchley Park and began work in the Auto Room. Doreen recalls her first visit to Bletchley and the secrecy essential to her work, “I didn’t realize when I first stepped into that room that I was going to be a part of a very secret department. In fact I didn’t know that until fifty years after the war.”

1.When was Doreen Luke born? (within 2 words)

2.What did Doreen Luke do when the war broke out? (within 6 words)

3.Why did Doreen feel restless on her 17th birthday? (within 8 words)

4.When did Doreen really become a wireless operator? (within 5 words)

5.What was the requirement for her work at Bletchley Park? (within 2 words）

Macinley Butson was just 16 years old when she first had the idea to try and protect women from more — than — necessary radiation during breast cancer treatments—and now, her invention could be a game-changer in the medical field.

Butson, whose father works in medical physics, has always been interested in science. But she only began researching the harmful side effects of radiation treatment after her father discussed his experience with ineffective cancer treatments in his work. Since Butson had also recently lost a relative to breast cancer, she felt inspired to conduct her own research on the subject. She tried to begin her medical research by consulting scientific journals, but she found their academic terms almost impossible to understand.

She then turned to the Internet to find videos that taught how to read scientific journals. As she went deeper in her research, she stumbled upon a key bit of information: copper （铜）has been shown to be effective at protecting skin from radiation. An idea hit this Australian teen as she was viewing a film on medieval wars in her 10th grade history class. When she saw the scaled （鳞片） patterns of the mail （盔甲）,she was inspired to create a wearable protective tool out of copper. She then headed back online and watched videos on how to put together tiny scales. She made her own flexible scale-mail which she now calls SMART: Scale Mail for Radiation Therapy.

When her invention was tested in a laboratory setting, it reduced surface exposure to unnecessary radiation by 75%. And now Butson is working on getting her SMART into clinical settings for use.

1.Why did Macinley Butson start her research?

A.To assist her father with his work. B.To save her relative from cancer.

C.To publish some articles in journals. D.To find effective ways to treat cancer.

2.What does the underlined phrase “stumbled upon" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A.Came across. B.Missed.

C.Passed on. D.Required.

3.Where did Macinley Buston get inspiration for her invention?

A.Videos online. B.Scientific journals.

C.History textbooks. D.Soldiers defensive clothes.

4.Which of the following best describes Macinley Buston?

A.Stubborn. B.Creative.

C.Selfless. D.Considerate.

I was parked in front of the mall wiping off my car．I had just come from the car wash and was waiting for my wife to get out of work．

Coming my way from across the parking lot was what society would consider a bum．From the looks of him, he had no car, no home, no clean clothes, and no money．There are times when you feel generous but there are other times that you just don't want to be bothered．This was one of those “don't want to be bothered times”．

“ I hope he doesn't ask me for any money,” I thought．

He didn't．He came and sat on the edge of the pavement in front of the bus stop but he didn't

look like he could have enough money to even ride the bus．After a few minutes he spoke．

“That's a very pretty car,” he said．

He was in rags but he had an air of dignity around him．His badly-grown blond beard kept more than his face warm．

I said, “thanks,” and continued wiping off my car．He sat there quietly as I worked．The expected plea（乞求） for money never came．As the silence between us widened, something inside said, “ask him if he needs any help．” I was sure that he would say “yes” but I held true to the inner voice．

“Do you need any help?” I asked．

He answered in three simple words that I shall never forget．We often look for wisdom in great men and women．We expect it from those of higher learning and achievements．I expected nothing but an outstretched dirty hand．He spoke the three words that shook me．

“Don't we all?” he said．

1.Why did the writer parked his car before the mall?

A. Because he wanted to pick up his wife．

B. Because he wanted to show off his car．

C. Because he wanted to wipe off his car．

D. Because he wanted to do some shopping．

2.Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word "bum" in Paragraph 2?

A. dustman             B. driver                                 C. beggar            D. robber

高三英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析

My 83-year-old mother came to live with me a year ago last November. She was very ill and I had to put my life on hold to care for her.

Each morning, I got her up and dressed her and made her breakfast and sat with her. I rushed for a bowl when she felt sick, and lit fires to keep her warm. I cooked and persuaded her to take a few bites.

It’s a hard job caring for a sick or dying parent, whoever you are. But it was especially hard for me, I feel, because I am a doctor myself. I couldn’t help looking at her in two different ways. The medical professional saw a body and scrutinized it with the coldness that medicine requires. But the daughter saw the woman who had given birth to me, wiped my nose, sent me off to college and had been a constant presence in my life for over half a century.

Also, my mother didn’t appreciate how hard it was for me to care for her. I remember an exchange between her and the nurse who came to see her once a week:

“You could get some more help with care.”

“Oh, I don’t think I need that,” Mom said.

Mom didn’t understand that the help would have taken some of the burden off me. None of the treatments her doctors gave her worked, and finally her life became about comfort. She refused painkillers (止痛药) for a long time, but finally the pain convinced her. And when she accepted the painkillers she accepted the fact that she would die.

Illness and needs took us across personal boundaries I’d never before considered. And yet, while living and being and dying with Mom I witnessed something precious dawning. We became closer. We shared so many stories from our past that it was as if our memories had become one.

In the past our relationship had been difficult. We had often argued. But when the end came, both of us simply accepted that we looked at the world in different ways. We were daughter and mother and we loved each other. That was all that mattered.

1.Why was taking care of her mom especially hard for the author?

A.She was too busy living her own life.

B.She and her mom had a difficult relationship.

C.She was too old to attend to her mom carefully.

D.She viewed her mom both as a patient and a loved one.

2.The underlined word “scrutinized” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_______”.

A.held B.checked

C.ignored D.left

3.How did the author probably feel about the conversation between her mom and the nurse?

A.Helpful. B.Thankful.

C.Surprised. D.Depressed.

4.What did the author learn from the experience of looking after her sick mother?

A.Love is more important than differences.

B.Being alive was the most important thing.

C.We should learn to understand other people.

D.It was better for family members to live independently of each other.
