How I Turned to Be OptimisticI began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see-—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often s ad, and saw no end to "the hard times."My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wro te letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.From my experiences I have learned one important rule: almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.( ) 1.

阅读理解-------ARedheaded birthday boy Jake Balcom, newly 11, walked into the principal’s office at Centennial Lane Elementary School in Ellicott City ready for his big surprise. His name had been announced over the loudspeaker moments earlier. Today was going to be special.Back in the day—like, before fifth grade —Jake’s parents would bring cupcakes to school in his honor. But this year, for the first time, his Howard County school has forbidden parents from bringing “edible treats” for students’ birthdays. That means no more cupcakes, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, birthday cake, ice cream, Rice Krispies treats or pizza. Instead, Jake got a handshake from Principal Robert Bruce and a colorful pencil and a card.“We hope that you have a terrific birthday,” the card read.Jake just smiled, and went back to class.Centennial Lane is part of a movement across the Washington area and the country to take the battle against childhood obesity to one of education’s most beloved functions: the school party. But some are worried that the fight is going one step too far—and taking some of the fun out of being a kid.Schools, where many children eat two of their day’s meals, are being pushed to the front lines of the battle against kiddy bulge. A federal law requires schools to create wellness policies that encourage students to be more active and eat more healthfully. Some schools in Virginia have started exercise clubs. In Maryland, schools are cracking down on vending-machine junk food.According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP), the proportion of overweight children ages 6 to 11 has skyrocketed in recent decades, from 7 percent in 1980 to 16 percent in 2002. Among 12 to 19-year-olds, the rate of obesity more than tripled, from 5 percent to 16 percent. Health officials have called obesity a pandemic (流行病).At Centennial Lane, the principal said some parents have complained about the school’s new policy, and others have adapted by bringing in nonfood treats—such as rulers or erasers.Jake Balcom said he missed bringing treats to school. But he wasn’t too bothered by theirabsence because he had celebrated his birthday with friends. They went to see the movie “Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit” and shared his birthday cake at his house.1. What is Jake Balcom’s reaction to his gifts for his 11-year-old birthday from his school ?A. He felt puzzled by the gifts quite different from the former ones.B. He almost felt the same as before because he had celebrated his birthday with friends.C. He preferred chocolate chip cookies, birthday cake, ice cream than pencils and cards.D. He would rather have a birthday party than a handshake from the principal.答案解析：答案为B。

2015高考英语阅读理解一轮（暑假）训练（1）及答案【2015高考复习】阅读理解“Is there anything else you need, honey？” my dad asked me as he put three twentydollar bills in my hand. I was traveling back home from a family visit, and after treating me to breakfast and filling my car with gas, it was obvious that my dad wanted to make sure that I would be okay on the road.“No, Dad. You've done so much already. Thank you！” I was overwhelmed once again by his kind acts of providing everything I needed, despite the fact I just turned 40. Yet I realize that in my father's eyes, I will always be his little girl. He takes deep pleasure in knowing his children are all right. Now that he has enough money, he loves to give whenever he sees a need.But this was not always the case. Divorced from my mother when I was 11, my dad couldn't be around his kids as often as he would have liked. Money was also tight; even weekend visits were rare. However, my dad stayed in constant communication with us and made sure he was involved in our lives. Though he couldn't always be there in person, I knew he was only a phone call away. I could always count on that.Even now, almost 30 years later, I treasure knowing that I can pick up the phone and call Dad, and he'll be there for me. I have a wonderful husband, but that hasn't changed how Dad sees me. I'm still his child and he loves to see that my needs are met.I remember a time when I was shopping in a hardware store(五金店)with Dad. I mentioned my plans to paint one wall in my house. Well, that's all it took for Dad to take action. By the time I got to the checkout(结账) line, all the supplies I picked out were put out of my hands and placed with things he bought.Then there was the time when I took him with me to do some grocery shopping for just a few “ items”. By the time we were finished, my shopping cart was full of groceries from every shelf in the store! My sister and I joke that if you don't want Dad to buy it for you, avoid even mentioning you want something.【语篇解读】虽然作者已经是40岁的人了，可是在父亲的眼中，她仍是爸爸的小宝贝。

高考英语 阅读理解精品训练(9)
落堕市安心阳光实验学校绵阳市2014高考英语阅读理解精品训练（9）及解析(2011·东城练习二，D)People have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behavior are formed. It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not, or why one is cooperative and another is competitive.Social scientists are of course extremely interested in these types of questions. They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behavior. There are no clear answers yet, but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have developed. As one might expect, the two approaches are very different from each other, and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory. The controversy is often conveniently referred to as “nature and nurture”．Those w ho support the“nature” side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological factors. That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abilities, characteristics and behavior is central to this theory. Taken to an extreme，this theory states that our behavior is predetermined to such a great degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts(本能)．Proponents of the“nurture” theory, or, as they are often called, behaviorists, claim that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act. A behaviorist, B. F. Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings. The behaviorists' view of the human being is quite mechanistic. They state that, like machines, humans respond to environmental stimuli (刺激) as the basis of their behavior.Socially and politically, the consequences of these two theories are farreaching. In the US ，for example, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests. This leads some“nature” proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically lower in status than whites. Behaviorists, on the contrary, say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy, and that, as a result, they do not develop the same responses that whites do.Neither of these theories can yet fully explain human behavior. In fact, it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes and that the controversy will continue for a long time is certain.人的个性和行为是天生具有的还是后天形成的？社会学家对此看法不一。

costs of our 19in financial terms.But what about the personal and social costs 20in pursuing money over meaning?These are exactly the kinds of costs many of us tend to ignore—and the very ones we need

fault with it.Several years ago I2 a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry,who described herself as a world-class fault-finder,almost always3by things.People were always doing things that annoyed her,and4was ever good enough.She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends.She became a really5person.Unfortunately,it took a horrible accident to change her6.Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash.What made it almost7to deal with was that the day before the8,Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her9of boyfriends,the way she was living,the way she related to her mother,and various other things she felt she needed to10.It wasn‟t until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became11her habit of finding fault.Very quickly,she learned to appreciate life rather than to12everything so harshly(刻薄).She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her13as well.Perhaps most of us aren‟t as extreme at fault-finding,14when we‟re honest,we can be sharply 15of the world.I‟m not suggesting you16problems,or that you pretend things are17 than they are,but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are—18most of the time,and especially when it‟s not a really big19.Train yourself to“bite your tongue”,and with a little20,you‟ll get really good at letting things go.And when you do,you‟ll get back your enthusiasm and
