高二英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the earth. If we didn’t see some rain soon we would lose everything.

I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year-old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort, trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.

Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.

He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill(溅出) the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing site.

Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap(舔) up the water cupped in my beautiful boy’s hand.

I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops... and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, himself, was weeping with pride.

1.What can be learned from Paragraph 1?

A. The writer lived in the hottest place.

B. It wouldn’t rain during the dry season.

C. All the crops in the area were dead.

D. People were in great need of rain.

2.Billy walked carefully to the woods because ______.

A. he was not old enough to walk freely

B. he didn’t want to be followed by his mother

C. he tried not to spill the water in his hands

D. he wanted to attract his mother’s attention

3.Why did the writer almost scream for Billy to get away?

A. Because she saw the most amazing site in the woods

B. Because those large deer appeared dangerous

C. Because she saw a baby deer laying on the ground

D. Because the deer suffered from heavy loss of water

4.After learning about the truth, the author felt _______.

A. curious and confused　　　　 B. scared and excited

C. moved and curious　　　　　　 D. proud and moved

5.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. The Water of Life　　 B. Importance of Water
