(吉林省吉林市2016高三第三次调研) On a hot summer day in America a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. He dived into the cool water, not realizing that as he swam towards the middle of the lake, a crocodile (鳄鱼) was swimming toward him.

His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war (拔河) between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.

Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn’t let go.”

Never judge another person's scars, because you don't know how they were made.

1.Which of the following is most related to the underlined word “passionate”?

A. Anxious. B. Determined. C. Frightened. D. Courageous.

2.By saying “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too” in the fourth paragraph, the boy really wants to show__________.

A. how many scars and scratches he had

B. how deep the scars made by the crocodile were

C. how great and beloved his mother was

D. what a brave and courageous boy he was

3.In the story the writer intends to tell us that __________.

A. scars always remind people of their past experiences

B. it’s dangerous to swim alone in the water

C. the boy also feels painful in his mind

D. scars do not necessarily mean pain at all times

4.Which of the following will be the best title for the text?

A. A Terrible Experience

B. Women Hold up Half the Sky

C. Scars of Love

D. Don't Judge by Appearances

Machu Picchu is an unusual site in Peru and one of the most mysterious wonders of the world. Built at almost 10,000 feet on the top of an Andean mountain, the Incas built hundreds of structures made of stone. A large number of Machu Picchu’s surrounding structures date back to the early 13th century, but it was considered a chief sacred site far before then. The Inca people changed the large site into a very small but wonderful city, completely self-sufficient and hidden from below. Agricultural terraces (梯田) surrounded the entire city, fed by natural spring water, supporting the entire population.

Inca Trail

The trail is one of the most famous in the world and regarded as one of the best. It covers only 26 miles, combining cloud forest, green mountain scenery, forest, and plenty of tunnels, paving stones, and ruins. The four-day hike begins slowly but quickly changes into a difficult journey suitable for those in excellent shape. The trail winds through the Andes, leading alongside and through ruins. Though independent hiking was once permitted, now it must be done with a guide.

Funerary Rock

It is believed that the Funerary Rock at Machu Picchu was used as a place to prepare Inca nobles for preservation, or mummifying (做成木乃伊), a common habit among the tribe. Nobles would be laid out to be mummified by the hot sun and freezing cold nights after their organs were removed. The rock is also famous as a spot from which a view of the city is afforded.

Temple of the Sun

Within the city’s castle, deep within Machu Picchu, is the Temple of the Sun, accessed only by the Emperor and

Inca priests. It means the Inca’s advanced knowledge of religion, weather, and nature, showing the great extent

Incas went to adapt to and learn about nature. Still unbroken, the temple was built to honor the god Inti, who is exactly the sun. The temple was effectively protected. It was also a very important scientific center, built in half-moon shape with openings facing north and east. The windows’ shadows in the center of the temple helped see the start of winter solstice (至日), showing farming season.

1.What do we know about the Inca Trail?

A. The scene is very beautiful along the trail.

B. One person alone is permitted to hike on the trail.

C. Only healthy people can do the four-day hike trail.

D. The trail covers a distance of 80 miles in all.

2.Temple of the Sun suggests that .

A. Incas had a good knowledge of math

B. Incas are rich in farming experiences

C. Inca had a desire to go to the moon

D. Incas adapted and learned about nature

3.What can be the best title for the passage?

A. Inca Trail B. Funerary Rock

C. Machu Picchu D. Temple of the Sun
