A nicely dressed little girl was excitedly looking through the Barbie dolls as well. As she was looking, a little boy came to the Pokemon toys. He was dressed neatly, but his clothes were obviously old. He was with his father as well, and kept picking up the Pokemon video toys. Each time he picked one up and looked at his father, his fat her shook his head and said, “No.〞The little girl had chosen her Barbie. However, she stopped and was watching them. Rather dejectedly, the boy had to give up the Pokemon toys and choose something else. The little girl put her Barbie back on the shelf, and ran over to the Pokemon toys. She excitedly picked up one and raced towards the checkout. I picked up my purchases and got in line behind them. Then, much to the little girl’s delight, the little boy and his father got in line behind me. After the toy was paid for and bagged, the little girl handed it back to the cashier (收银员) and whispered something in her ear. The casher smiled and put the package under the counter.I paid for my purchases and was rearranging things when the little boy came up to the ca shier. The cashier checked his purchases and said, “Congratulations, you are my hundredth customer today, and you win a prize!〞 With that, she handed thelittle boy the Pokemon toys, and he could only stare in surprise. It was exactly what he had wanted!The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway during all of this. Then they walked out. As I walked back to my car, I heard the father ask his daughter why she had done that. I’ll never forget what she said to him. “Daddy, didn’t Grandpare nts want me to buy something that would make me happy?〞 He said, “Of course they did, honey.〞To which the little girl replied, “Well, I just did!〞I feel very shocked to have witnessed the true spirit of Christmas in that toy store, in the form of a little girl who understands more about the meaning of this festival than most adults I know.56.

The author was deeply moved by the behavior of the little girl.BThe following are the results of the tests done by “Family and Home Magazine〞on some Pocket Tape-Recorders on the market now.Pearlcorder S702 $64This simple model at the bottom of the Olympus range scored the most points for its excellent quality of recording. Background noise hardly affects the sound and recording from a pocket is perfectly poss ible, but it doesn’t turn off automatically.Tape length: 30minutes per side. Weight: 240g.Sony M9 $49.95Small and very good looking, Sony’s latest offering scored most for its appearance. Sounds clear, but there is slight machine noise. The big control buttons are a great improvement on some of the complicated little controls on other tape-recorders. It doesn’t switch off automatically, but a red light shows if the machine is still running.Tape length: 60minutes per side. Weight: 195g.Sony M400 $115Lots of little control buttons that make a noise are difficult to use. Recording is good but machine noise loses points. Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful.Tape length: 60 minutes per side. Weight: 230g.Imperial OEM MC7 $ 29.95Cheap and simple compared with the rest, but recording is good as long as there is no background noise. Use only its own-make of cassette. No light to show it is on; no fast-forward button and the record button makes a loud noise.Tape length: 30 minutes per side. Weight: 285g.Philips 585 $80Handsome and simple to use, but recording is very poor at more than the recommended distance of 5 cm-designed for dictation. No recording light.Tape length: 15 minutes per side. Weight: 220g.60. The machine that produces the best recording with the least unwanted noise is _____.A. Pearlcorder S 702B. Sony M9C. Sony M400D. Imperial OEM MC761. If you want a machine which turns off automatically and weighs very little youshould choose _____.A. Pearlcorder S 702B. Sony M9C. Sony M400D. Philips 58562. Which of the following allows you to record longest but costs you least?A. Philips 585B. Imperial OEM MC7C. Sony M400D. Sony M963. What disadvantage does only the Imperial OEM MC7 have?A. No light shows when it is on.B. It requires a special cassette.C. It picks up background noise .D. The record button makes a noise.CToday’s children are the “result〞 of the modern society. Our parents have jobs that keep them busy almost all day long. They only have a free day in a week. This doesn’t allow them to keep an eye on their children.On the other hand, the modern society gives more freedom to the children than they could “handle〞. As a chil d, you don’t know how to grow up by yourself until you reach a certain age. That is why you need school and parents to be by your side all the time. If you don’t have either of them you may make a lot of mistakes. The social system of the modern society is very lenient especially with the children.Most of the children today are rebels (判逆者). They are rude. They are giventoo much freedom by their families. This is their parent’s mistake. They ought to know that the freedom they give to their children is misunderstood.For example it is a bad thing for a 17 –year –old child to go out in the evening on weekends. Parents are also guilty of the way their children show up in the street or at school. The same guilt belongs to the teaching system as well. Pupils shouldn’t be allowed to dress like they were on a fashion presentation at school.Another important fact we can think of regarding the freedom of children is their free will of spending money. Parents shouldn’t allow their children to spend money on whatever they want.I think children are given too much freedom not only by their parents, but also by the society. The latter is more to be blamed!64．The writer implies that parents’ busy lifestyle .A．makes their children become independentB．may lead to a tense parent – child relationshipC．is harmful to their children’s healthD．is likely to create a troubled generation65．What does the underlined word “lenient〞 (in Para 2) mean?A．Not responsible B．Not strict. C．Unkind. D．Unfair.66．It seems that the writer agrees that students .A．should stay at home on weekendsB．can wear trendy clothes at schoolC．had better wear school uniform at schoolD．can be allowed to go out in the evenings67．According to the writer, which of the following takes the primary responsibility for children’s problems?A．The social environment. B．The educational system.C．Each family. D．The school.DThe English test will be removed from China’s college entrance exam by 2020, according to details of exam and admission reform revealed by the Ministry of Education. The national college entrance exam, known as the “Gaokao〞 has been used to evaluate Chinese students for three decades. The Ministry of Education has worked out a plan for reforming exams and enrollment. The Ministry will solicit(征求) public opinions before its release. Instead, tests will be held several times a year to allow students to choose when and how often they sit the exam so as to alleviate study pressure and change China’s once-in-a-lifetime exam system.The plan and suggestions for its implementation will be announced in the first half of next year. It will be piloted in selected provinces and cities and promoted nationwide from 2017. A new exam and admission system will be established by 2020, according to the education ministry.The decision has aroused a heated discussion among Shanghai educators and parents who doubted the reform would reduce the burden of learning English or if the substitute test could reflect a student’s English skills and help stude nts learn English better.“The reform shows China is learning from the West to give students more test-taking chances. But more chances might become more of a burden since Chinese students are likely to repeat the test until they get the highest score,〞 said Cai Jigang, a professor at Fudan University’s College of Foreign Languages and Literature and chairman of the Shanghai Advisory Committee for College English Teaching at Tertiary Level.Yu Lizhong, chancellor of New York University Shanghai, where classes are in English and students are required to have a high standard of English, said the most important aspect of the reform lay in what to test and how to test.“ As far as I see, the reform doesn’t mean English is no longer important for Chinese students after it will be excluded from the unified college entrance exam,〞Yu said. “In a way, English is even more important than before since the test would only serve as reference, while every college and university, even every major, can have different requir ements of a student’s English skills under a diverse evaluationsystem. 〞Yu said some students will have their study pressure reduced if the major they choose doesn’t need excellent English while others still need to study hard if they want to be among the best students.The education ministry said the reform would not affect students attending the college entrance exam over the next three years.68. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. English will become less and less important in the stage of compulsory education.B. It has been 30 years since English became one subject of national college entrance exam.C. China’s once-in-a-lifetime exam system is unacceptable at all.D. The system that tests are held several times does more good than once-in-a-lifetime exam system.69. According to the passage, Shanghai educators and parents argue that _____.A. the new exam and admission system will make no differenceB. English shouldn’t be removed from China’s college entrance examC. the reform may accomplish the very oppositeD. Western educational system does not apply to China70. What does the passage try to express in the underlined sentence?A. Students needn’t lay a good foundation during the period of high school.B. Whether students should study hard English may depend on their major.C. Students can constantly strive for perfection only in their major.D. English must be close to full mark.71. What’s the purpose of the passage?A. To advise students not to devote themselves to English.B. To call on Education Department to remove English from “Gaokao〞.C. To support the act of Ministry of Education.D. To encourage students to do as they have planned.EIt’s the place where smart people make smart machines work even smarter. It’s also in the heart of sunny California, a great place to start a family and raise kids.What could be better?But something is happening to their children. Up until the age of two they develop normally. But then everything seems to go backwards. The children become locked into their own small world, unable to communicate at all.They call it the “curse(诅咒)of Silicon Valley,〞 but the medical name for the condition is autism(自闭症). It used to be thought that autism was a kind of mental illness. Now doctors are sure that it is a neurological disease transmitted genetically. It seems that the people leading the communications revolution are having children who cannot communicate at all.But even the parents have trouble communicating. Asperge r’s Syndrome is a mild version of autism. People who have it are highly intelligent and often brilliant with numbers or system but have no social skill. This very combination of symptoms makes Asperger’s sufferers into ideal computer professionals.The As perger’s sufferer has always been a well—known figure in popular culture. He or she was the eccentric but dedicated scholar or the strange uncle or auntie who never married. But the high numbers of such people in Silicon Valley mean that they can meet others who understand them and share their interests. And while they might not be personally attractive, they can earn truly attractive amounts of money. They can get married and have kids. Unfortunately, many of the children of two Asperger’s parents seem to be developing serious autism.There is little anyone can do. It takes hours of work just to make autistic child realize that anyone else exists. And there is no cure in sight. Some argue that no cure should be found. “It may be that autistics are essentia lly different from normal people, but that these differences make them invaluable for the evolution of the human race,〞says Dr. Kirk Whilhelmsen of the University of California. “To eliminate the genes for autism could be disastrous. 〞It seems that the children of Silicon Valley are paying the price of genius.72. What does Dr Kirk Whilhelmsen think of autism?A. It is disastrous to society.B. It is not completely a bad thing.C. It is a punishment to those working in Silicon Valley.wordD. People with autism should never marry.73. What can we learn about autism according to the passage?A. It is believed to be a king of mental illness that can be cured.B. People with autism can’t find people sharing their interests.C. They do not care about the presence of others.D. They are a burden for the society.74. Why do people call autism “curse of Silicon Valley〞？A. Because autistic people live in Silicon Valley.B. Because many people working in Silicon Valley have autism children.C. Because people with autism will be driven out of Silicon Valley.D. Because people with autism are not personally attractive and not liked by others.75. What can we know about Asperger’s Syndrome according to the passage?A. Asperger’s sufferers are ideal computer professionals.B. Asperger’s sufferers never get married and have children.C. Asperger’s sufferers are ashamed of themselves and locked into their own world.D. Asperger’s sufferers can be beneficial to society if they are cured.2016秋高二英语阅读训练136—40 DABAD 41--45CABAD 46—50DCBCD 51—55ABDAB56 ADAC 60 ACBD 64 DBCA 68 DCBC 72 BCBA- 11 - / 11。

I had made great efforts to write when I camehome at night after work, but I was too tired. I decided to quit my job.I began my new life on a February morning. I sat down at my kitchen table at 7:30 am andmade a resolution. Every day I would write until lunchtime. Then I would lie down on the floorfor 20 minutes to rest my mind. After that, I would return to work for a few more hours.In my first year, I sold two stories. Then I wrote a novel, but I thought it wasn't good enough, soI ended up putting it in a drawer. My second novel, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, waspublished to glowing reviews and received the National Book Critics Circle Award for fiction.My success sounds like a familiar story, but actually it was far from sudden. I quit my job, and for every story I published in those years, I had at least 30 rejections. The novel that I put awayin the drawer took my four years. My breakthrough came in 2006, 18 years after I first sat downto write at my kitchen table.Sometimes genius (天才 ) is just the thing that comes out after 20 years of working at your kitchen.

AWhat is eBay? The simple answer is that it is a global trading platform where nearly anyone can trade practically anything. People can sell and buy all kinds of products and goods. Including cars, movies and DVDs, sporting goods, travel tickets, musical instruments, clothes and shoes－the list goes on and on.The idea came from Peter Omidyar, who was born in Paris and moved to Washington when he was still a child. At high school, he became very interested in computer programming and after graduating from Tuft University in 1988, he worked for the next few years as a computer engineer. In his free time he started Bay as a kind of hobby, at first offering the service free by word of mouth. By 1996 there was so much traffic on the website that he had to upgrade（升级）and he began charging a fee to members. Joined by a friend, Peter Skill, and in 1998 by his capable CEO, Meg Whitman, he has never looked back. Even in the great .com crashes of the late 1990s, eBay has gone from strength to strength. It is now one of the ten most visited online shopping websites on the Internet.eBay sells connections, not goods, putting buyers and sellers into contact with each other. All you have to do is to take an e-photo, write a description, fill out a sales form and you are in business; the world is your market place. Of course for each item（商品）sold, eBay gets a percentage and that is great deal of money. Every day there are more than sixteen million items listed on eBay and eighty percent of the items are sold.51. We learn from the text that eBay provides people with______________.A. a way of buying and selling goodsB. a website for them to upgradeC. a place to exhibit their own photosD. a chance to buy things at low prices52. From ―he has never looked back ‖ in Paragraph 2, we learn that Peter______________.A. did not feel lonelyB. was always hopefulC. did not think about the pastD. became more and more successful53. How does eBay make money from its website?A. By bringing sellers together.B. By charging for each sale.C. By listing items online.D. By making e-photos.BFor five days, Edmonton's Downtown Park is transformed into one huge stage where artists are able to share their talents, and where people are able to celebrate and enjoy themselves. Since its beginning in 1980, the Edmonton Folk Music Festival has been commemorating（纪念）the true feeling of what folk music is all about and that's the traditional togetherness（友爱）that is felt when people gather to share stories and feelings through songs.This year will be the sixth year when volunteer Riedel will be offering up her time to the festival. "People coming off a busy spring and summer have a moment of relaxation," Riedel said. "It's really easy to relax, and it's great seeing family and friends have fun together." These families and friends come from all different kinds of musical tastes. People who take pleasure in Blues are there, so are people who love Bluegrass. This festival does its best to develop everyone's musical interests.With so many years of experience, the festival has become a well-oiled machine, and does whatever it can to make attendees feel as comfortable as possible. There are free water stationsthroughout the venue（举办地）for people to fill up their travel cups. When people buy food, reusable dishes are given a $2 plate fee, but that is returned when the plate is brought back.The festival has completely sold out of tickets, and in record time. But with big names such as Van Morrison and Jakob Dylan, it‘s easy to see how that was going to happen. There is no parking area during the festival, so using the Park & Ride system or Edmonton Transit is highly recommended. A bike lock-up area is provided and will be available from Thursday to Sunday one hour before the gates open until 45 minutes after the gates close.The Edmonton Folk Music Festival begins on Wednesday, Aug.4 with Van Morrison playing the special donation fund（基金）concert, and will finish up on Sunday, Aug.8.54. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. It‘s hard for people to appreciate Blues.B. It costs people a little to fill up their cups from water stations.C. Riedel has volunteered for the festival for at least 5 years.D. People have to pay $2 for a plate of food.55. We can learn from the passage that______________.A. people can get tickets easily for the festivalB. driving one‘s own car to the festival is highly recommendedC. bikes are available at the festival from Wednesday to SundayD. the Edmonton Folk Music Festival is highly recommended56. What would the best title for the passage?A. Folk Music of BluesB. One Festival for AllC. Festival for family GatheringD. Edmonton‘s Downtown ParkCAlmost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world，in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a false idea created by companies and advertisers hoping to sell their products.The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people‘s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process. Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no anxiety.57. What does the author try to argue in Paragraph 1?A. The exercise of rights is a luxury.B. The practice of choice is difficult.C. The right of choice is given but at a price.D. Choice and right exist at the same time.58. Why do more choices of goods cause anxiety?A. Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.B. People are likely to find themselves overcome by business persuasion.C. Shoppers may find themselves lost in the broad range of items.D. Companies and advertisers are often misleading about the range of choice.59. By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that____________.A. advanced products meet the needs of peopleB. products of the latest design flood the marketC. competitions are fierce in high-tech industryD. everyday goods need to be replaced often60. What is this passage mainly about?A. The variety of choices in modern society.B. The opinions on people‘s rights in different countries.C. The problems about the availability of everyday goods.D. The helplessness in purchasing decisions.D阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
