In June 2008,Benita Grist was driving in her hometown of Mississauga as a passenger in the car ahead threw a paper cup out of the window.When Grist horned to express her displeasure, the passenger responded by throwing out a bag.

Instead of annoyed, she decided to do something about it.She organized a one woman litterawareness campaign.She started small,chatting with her neighbors about litter—and asking them to be more conscious of any tendencies they might have to litter.Soon,she noticed local families, kids and all—picking up litter around their homes.”I thought,that’s all it took—for me to open my mouth?” she says.”So I decided to knock on more doors.”

And she didn’t stop there.She approached people on the street,in malls,even in the waiting room before getting an X ray. Grist often started her appeal with something such as,”I hope you don’t think I’m crazy,but...” Yet she was buoyed by the positive response—so much so that in August 2008, she began to contact officials in various levels of government, companies and other institutions in an effort to reach a wider audience.

Through a local Mac’s Convenience Store,Grist managed to contact the company that produces content displayed on their in store monitors.That led to a public service announcement about litter that ran in almost 600 Mac’s stores in Ontario from November 2008 to June 2009. Grist continues to explore every opportunity she has to get the message out.Her grassroots campaign may be different,but she has begun to open people’s eyes about the problem of litter.And thanks to her efforts,in Mississauga,at least,they have begun to do just that.

1.How did Benita Grist start her campaign?

A．She chatted with her neighbors.            B．She quarreled with a stranger.

C．She went door to door,talking.              D．She talked to patients in hospital.

2.The underlined word “buoyed” in Paragraph 4 probably means “-------”.

A．inspired          B．discouraged        C．confused          D．disturbed

3.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．Introduction to a one woman litter awareness campaign.

B．How Benita Started the one woman litter awareness campaign.

C．Why Benita Started the one woman litter awareness campaign.

D．Benita and the one woman litter awareness campaign.

Saturday was my husband’s birthday, but we spent most of the time in the car. We were driving to Phoenix for the weekend to celebrate his birthday and see the Warriors play the Suns.

My husband is a lucky man. Not only has he lived to see another birthday, but he doesn’t mind driving 200 miles to see an NBA basketball game.

In the car, his cellphone kept ringing with birthday greetings from family and friends. He put them all on the speakerphone so he could drive with both hands and I could listen in even though it wasn’t my birthday.

Meanwhile, on the CD player, the Reverend AL Green began to sing Love and Happiness. A little good music makes a bad road better.

Four hours later, we checked into hotel, got dinner and sat out a rooftop feeling glad to be alive.

We had a great weekend—we ate too much, slept too little and the Warriors, well, they lost. But still, it was worth the drive.

On the way home, I started thinking about birthdays. In our family, we celebrate four in January, four in February, and all the others throughout the year. Mine is next week.

I felt lucky, like my husband, I will get cards and calls and maybe a few videos. I don’t need presents any more. When you’ve seen as many birthdays as I have seen, the only gift you truly want is to see one more.

Birthdays are the mile markers on the road of life. They tell us how far we have come, but not how far we have gone.

Life is a journey more than a destination. What matters is whom we choose as traveling companions, and how often we get to sit back and enjoy the ride.

1.What helps to make their long journey drive to Phoenix better?

A. The phone calls from their friends.

B. The music played on their CD player.

C. The beautiful view along the road.

D. The desire to celebrate a nice birthday.

2.What kind of birthday gift does the author really want?

A. A wish to live another year.

B. Calls and cards from friends.

C. A live NBA game

D. Videos from friends and family.

3.What is the major lesson that the author took from the journey?

A. People should learn to appreciate life together with their loved ones.

B. Taking a long drive is a great way to celebrate a birthday.

C. A meaningful life is like a journey with a clear destination.

D. People shouldn’t rest on what they have but try to make new achievements.

4.What could be the best title for this passage?

A. My lucky Husband

B. Driving to See a Basketball Game

C. Mile Markers on the Road of Life

D. A birthday journey

高二英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

On numerous drives throughout my childhood, my mother would suddenly pull over the car to examine a flower by the side of the road or rescue a beetle (甲虫) from certain tragedy while I, in my late teens and early twenties, sat impatiently in the car.

Though Mother’s Day follows Earth Day, for me, they have always been related. My mom has been “green” since she became concerned about the environment. Part of this habit was born of thrift (节俭). Like her mother and her grandmother before her, Mom saves glass jars, empty cheese containers and re-uses her plastic bags.

Mom creates a kind of give-and-take relationship with wildlife in her yard. She knows to pick the apples on her trees a little early to fend off the bears and that if she leaves the bird feeders out at night, it’s likely they’ll be knocked down by a family of raccoons (浣熊). Spiders that make their way into the house are captured (捕获) in a juice glass and set loose in the garden.

I try to teach my children that looking out for the environment starts with being aware of the environment. On busy streets, we look for spent (开败的) dandelions (蒲公英) to parachute; we say hello to neighborhood cats and pick up plastic cups and paper bags. This teaching comes easily, I realize, because I was taught so well by example. Mom didn’t need to lecture; she didn’t need to beat a drum to change the world. She simply slowed down enough to enjoy living in it and with that joy came compassion and an instinct (本能) for preservation.

I am slowing down and it isn’t because of the weight of my nearly forty years on the planet, it is out of my concern for the planet itself. I’ve begun to save glass jars and re-use packing envelopes. I pause in my daily tasks to watch the squirrels race each other through the palm (棕榈树) leaves above my porch (门廊).

Last summer, in the company of my son and daughter, I planted tomatoes in my yard. With the heat of August around me, I ate the first while sitting on my low wall with dirt on my hands. Warm from the sun, it burst on my tongue with a sweetness I immediately wanted to share with my mom.

1.Why does the author say Earth Day is connected with Mother’s Day?

A. Because Mother’s Day falls shortly after Earth Day.

B. To stress that all the older women in her family are environmentalists.

C. To stress how much her mother cares about the environment.

D. Because on Mother’s Day her mother shows her how to be friend to nature.

2. According to the fourth paragraph, which of the following is the author’s mother NOT likely to do?

A. When she came across a lost dog, she helped it to find its shelter.

B. In spring, she spent some time watching the plants growing in the garden.

C. She joined in the campaign to encourage the public to contribute actively towards a better environment.

D. She walked to a nearby shop which was within ten minutes’ walk rather than drove there.

3.What can we conclude from the article?

A. The author’s mother is very patient with her children.

B. The author’s mother knows how to live in harmony with nature.

C. The author’s mother always took care of the wildlife that came into her yard.

D. The author’s mother used to remind her to slow down to protect the environment.

4. We can infer from the article that ______.

A. the author thinks that too many people now label themselves environmentalists

B. the author’s mother knows how to get rid of the wildlife in her yard

C. the author believes that only by learning to slow down, can we enjoy life

D. the author realizes that she should teach her children by example as well

5. What is the main idea of the last three paragraphs?

A. How the author taught her children to protect the environment.

B. How the author’s mother influenced the author.

C. What inspired the author to slow down and enjoy life.

D. How the author spent her time with her children.
