Dad had a green comb (梳子）.He bought it when he married Mum. Every night，he would hand me his comb and say. “Good girl, help Daddy clean it, OK?”

I was pleased to do it. At age five, this dull(无趣的) task brought me such joy. I would excitedly turn the tap (水龙头)on and brush the comb carefully. Satisfied that I'd done a good job. I would happily return the comb to Dad. He would smile affectionately (亲切地）at me and place the comb on his wallet.

Two years later. Dad started his own business, which wasn't doing so well. That was when things started to change. Dad didn't come home as early and as much as he used to. Mum and I became mad with him for placing our family in trouble. With time, an uncomfortable silence grew between us.

After my graduation, Dad's business was getting back on track. On my 28th birthday. Dad came home early. As usual I helped him carry his bags into his study. When I turned to leave, he said," Hey, would you help me clean my comb?” I looked at him a while，then took the comb and headed to the sink.

It hit me then: why, as a child, helping Dad clean his comb was such a pleasure. That routine (习惯) meant Dad was home early to spend the evening with Mum and me. It meant a happy and loving family.

I passed the clean comb back to Dad. He smiled at me and carefully placed his comb on his wallet. But this time, I noticed something different. Dad had aged. He had wrinkles(皱纹）next to his eyes when he smiled, yet his smile was still as heartwarming as before, the smile of a father who just wanted a good life for his family.

1.Why was the author pleased to clean the comb?

A. Because her father forced her to do.

C. Because cleaning the comb could make her happy.

There was no one quite like my father in our town. When any other man had an extra dollar, he bought a drink; when Father had an extra dollar, he bought a book. Other people had pictures on their walls; we had books, 3000　 of them, lining every vertical surface of our little four-room house.

Father was the most persistent scholar I ever knew. He earned seven degrees, attended 11 different colleges and universities, and in 1951, when he was 82, sent us a cheerful little note from England to say that he had just enrolled for a graduate course in Elizabethan literature at Oxford.

I was the immediate beneficiary of Father's unbelievable hunger to learn. Every spring, he would take me hiking through the mountains to study mineral formations. On clear winter nights, he would set up a telescope and wake me to view the stars. After I grew up, wherever I traveled around this earth, the stars remained my friends.

Plain, distinct speech was a particular concern of my father and he was constantly drilling me in the art of elocution （演讲技巧）.Before I was three, he was reading aloud to me from the Bible, Shakespeare and Mark Twain. Thereafter, read aloud to him so he could work on my diction. By the time I was in the fifth grade, I could recite from a whole range of classical literature and poetry.

Of course, there had been times as a young man, when I got tired of study and devoted my time to playing. Then Father would admonish me succinctly by quoting a saying from Shakespeare, "If all the year were playing holidays, to sport would be as tedious （乏味的）as to work."

Obviously, his efforts were not entirely in vain, for my voice has enabled me to earn a fair livelihood. But that fact doesn't begin to define the enormous debt I owe my father.

1.What contributed to my father's being a successful scholar?

A.His gift for academic studies.

B.The academic environment in our town.

C.The wealth of his family.

D.His lifelong passion for knowledge.

2.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined words in Paragraph 5?

A.Criticize me briefly. B.Comfort me patiently.

C.Praise me gently. D.Challenge me bravely.

3.Which of the words below can best describe the author's father?

A.Stubborn and lazy. B.Kind and generous.

C.Consistent and strict. D.Understanding and moody.

4.What may be the best title for the passage?

A.A Successful Scholar B.Enormous Debt

C.Secrets of My livelihood D.Father and Son

George couldn’t remember when he first met Mr. Anderson,but he was sure it was___Sunday because everybody was at___church.

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

Sam, an unemployed piano tuner, said it was only the second thing he had ever won in his life. The first thing was an Afghan blanket at a church raffle when he was 25 years old. But this was much bigger: it was $120,000! He had won the Big Cube, a state lottery game. To win, a contestant must first guess which number a spinning cube will stop on. The cube has six numbers on it: 1X, 10X, 50X, 100X, 500X, and 1000X. If he is correct, the contestant must then guess which of two selected variables is going to be greater. So, just guessing which number appears on the cube does not guarantee that you will win any money. Sam correctly guessed 1000X, but he still had to choose between two variables. One variable was the number of cars that would run the stop sign at Hill Street and Lake Avenue in six hours. The other variable was the number of times that a teenage boy would change TV channels in a three-hour period. This was a tough decision.

Finally, Sam flipped a coin. It came up heads, so Sam picked the teenager. He picked right. The stop sign was run only 76 times, but the teen clicked 120 times. Sixty-year-old Sam jumped for joy, for he had just won 1000 times 120, or $120,000. Sam dreamily left the lottery studio. Talking excitedly on his cell phone while crossing the street, he got hit by a little sports car.

Sam is slowly getting better. He was in the hospital for a month. His hospital bill was $110,000. And the insurance company for the little sports car's owner sued Sam for $9,000 worth of repairs. Also, Sam still has to pay federal taxes on his winnings. Sam doesn't play the state lottery any more. He says it's better to be unlucky.

1.When Sam won the second thing that he’d won in his life, he was ______.

A. 25 years old

B. six years old

C. 76 years old

D. sixty years old

2.To win the game, the contestants had to make ______ guesses.

A. three           B. two         C. six             D. four

3.Sam won the lottery because ______.

A. he was lucky     B. he was good at math

C. he was smart     D. he was tough

4.Sam’s experience shows that ______

A. everything has its time and that time must be watched.

B. he who risks nothing, gains nothing.

C. everything comes to him who waits.

D. he who laughs on Friday will weep on Sunday.
