河南省顶级名校2015届5月热身模拟英语试卷（2） （本试卷共120分，考试时间100分钟） 第一卷 第一部分 听力部分（略） 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 （共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A, B, C和D)中，选出最佳选项.并且在答题卷上将该项涂黑。 A My grandparents were married for over half a century, and played their own special game the time they had met each other. The goal of their game was to write the word “shmily” in a surprise place for the other to find. They took turns leaving “shmily” around the house, and as soon as one of them discovered it, it was their turn to hide it once more. They dragged “shmily” with their fingers through the sugar and flour containers to await whoever was preparing the next meal. “Shmily” was written in the steam left on the mirror after a hot shower, where it would reappear bath after bath. There was no end to the places where “shmily” would pop up. Little notes with “shmily” were found on car seats, or taped to steering wheels. The notes were put inside shoes and left under pillows. “Shmily” was written in the dust upon the mantel（壁炉架）and traced in the ashes of the fireplace. This mysterious word was as much a part of my grandparents’ house as the furniture. It took me a long time before I was able to fully appreciate my grandparents’ game. Skepticism has kept me from believing in true love—one that is pure and enduring (持久的). However, I never doubted my grandparents’ relationship. It was based on passionate affection which not everyone is lucky enough to experience. But there was a dark cloud in my grandparents’ life: my grandmother had breast cancer. The disease had first appeared ten years earlier. As always, Grandpa was with her every step of the way. He comforted her in their yellow room, painted that way so that she could always be surrounded by sunshine, even when she was too sick to go outside. But my grandmother grew steadily weaker until, finally, she could not leave the house any more. Then one day, what we all dreaded finally happened. Grandma was gone. “Shmily.” It was written in yellow on the pink ribbons of my grandmother’s funeral bouquet (花束). As the crowd thinned and the last mourners turned to leave, Grandpa stepped up to my grandmother’s coffin and, taking a shaky breath, he began to sing to her. Through his tears and grief, the song came: S-h-m-i-l-y: See How Much I Love You. 21. The first paragraph is mainly about ________. A. what the word “shmily” means B. how the author’s grandparents played their special game C. how the author appreciated her grandparents’ game D. how the author’s grandparents cared for each other 22. The underlined phrase “pop up” in Paragraph 1 means ________. A. appear B. change C. survive D. work 23. According to the passage, the author _________. A. thought the game was meaningless B. believes everyone can experience true love C. doubted the existence of true love at first D. sometimes left “shmily” around the house 24. Grandpa tried to make Grandma comfortable by _______. A. singing songs to her every day B. painting the room yellow C. encouraging her to go outside D. helping her take a hot shower every day B A very close friend phoned me this weekend and asked a specific question about earning a few extra dollars each month online. For the benefit of keeping her name and details secret, I will call her Annie in this article. You see Annie suffers from a severe form of inaction syndrome; she is full of great ideas that never materialize into cash and she is having a problem finding the link that will achieve this. Somebody once said that knowledge is power, yet we constantly find from readers of our website that they have knowledge to burn and still do not have power. Just look at the academics in universities all around the world; they have so much knowledge that they should control the wealth of the world. In truth they work for peanuts and very few of them ever achieve the power of independence. So knowledge certainly isn’t power. Therefore, we should change that “wise” statement to: “Power is the ability to use knowledge to your own benefit.” That paragraph was inserted because Annie is a typical academic—strong on talks and plans but a little weaker on actions. In the period of a twenty-minute conversation, she expounded（阐述）a whole list of plans and ideas to make the extra few hundred dollars each month she was seeking. Any one of her many ideas was a potential money maker, but she had taken action on none of them. At one time she said, “I’m lost as to what to do next.” That was my cue（提示）to get involved. “Take action,” I advised. All that is wrong is that Annie was inactive without knowing it. In five minutes we drew up a plan of action and agreed to talk again in a month to review progress. When we finished the conversation, she sounded much happier and more motivated than when we started. Annie just needs a little push into beneficial action. 25. What’s the problem with Annie? A. She has too many great ideas. B. She never puts her ideas into practice. C. She suffers from a strange illness. D. She knows little about making money online. 26. What is the most important according to the author? A. The ability to use one’s knowledge. B. The ability to acquire knowledge. C. A great deal of knowledge. D. A good understanding of oneself. 27. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Annie will succeed in later life. B. Annie is going towards success. C. Annie doesn’t realize her problems. D. Annie talks too much in daily life. C Increasingly, Americans are becoming their own doctors, by going online to diagnose their symptoms, order home health tests or medical devices, or even self-treat their illnesses with drugs from Internet pharmacies(药店).Some avoid doctors because of the high cost of medical
