         It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were
    warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in
    10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.
         The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in
    60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货),
    saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
         I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike,
    then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It
    really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met
    before. People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from
    strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity(人性) as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can
    share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.
    1. How did people get to know the couple's problem?
    A. From radio broadcasts.  
    B. From TV news  
    C. From a newspaper.  
    D. From a stranger.
    2.Which of the following is TRUE?
    A. The author used to get to work by bike.
    B. The author's husband often parked the bike beside the back door.
    C. Several strangers offered bikes to them, but they only accepted one of them.
    D. Somebody had stolen their bike before, but soon returned it to the author.
    4.What do we learn from  the couple's experience?
    A. Strangers are usually of little help.          
    B. One should take care of their bike.
    C. News reports make people famous.        
    D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.
    4. Why was the bike so important to the couple?
    A. They used it for work and daily life.        
    B. It was their only possession.
    C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.              
    D. The man's job was bike racing.
    5. We can conclude that _______
    A. the couple worked 60 hours a week.        
    B. people were busy before Christmas
    C. the stranger brought over the bike          
    D. life was hard for the young family.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

    In this age of ours, I find that almost all of my friends are becoming mere voices.

    Not too long ago when friends came, they would fill half the drawing room and their voices would penetrate the four walls and disturb all the neighbors. Now they have all become, step by step, into invisible and untouched beings, whose tiny voices can only be heard by one ear through the telephone, no louder than the mosquitoes(蚊子).

    Since this has become a necessary part of modern life, I too have learnt to live with this “ear language”. Many friends have become more distant because they are not very good at this way of communication（交流）, others have become closer through ear language, and there are some friends I know by voice only. There is one particular voice friend I got to know through a very curious incident.

    One day my telephone rang. When I lifted the receiver- a young lady’s voice informed me that she was phoning in answer to an advertisement for a night club program hostess. Obviously she had got the wrong number. The incident should have ended there and then. Actually, it was a sweet voice, only her poor imitation（模仿）of Hong Kong pronunciation and intonation got on my nerve and especially the “wa!” gave me the goose flesh. I told her that if I were the boss of the club, I wouldn’t give her a second thought because of her poor pronunciation. The young lady at the other end of the phone immediately came up with a surprising suggestion that, of course in her true local accent, she wanted to learn proper standard spoken Chinese speech from me, because she valued every chance very much. To my great surprise, we became “phone” friends. Every day, at the agreed time, she would ring me up and our “lesson” would begin. And she was tested and interviewed by a radio station in the south and got acceptd. She phoned me for the last time to thank me and to say good-bye. We had already formed a very deep “voice” friendship and have left deep unchangeable vocal(听觉的) impressions in each other’s mind. Any sudden appearance of visual images(视觉印象), good or bad, could only be destructive.

    56．The underlined word penetrate in the first paragraph means _____.

    A．pass quickly by              B．force a way through 

    C．hear accidentally       D．make a hole in

    57．The passage suggests us that _____.

    A．they would be friends forever

    B．they would meet in the future

    C．they hadn’t had and wouldn’t have any interview

    D．the young lady was able to sing sweet songs in standard Chinese

    58．We know from the passage that _____.

    A．in modern times people get in touch less than before

    B．young people enjoys getting together very much

    C．people are more ready to help others

    D．people can earn a lot of money in the night club

    59．Which is wrong according to the passage?

    A．The writer taught the young lady without pay.

    B．The young lady can’t be a native of Beijing.

    C．The writer is not fond of getting in touch with others

    D．Neither of the two is ready to see each other.

    科目：高中英语 来源：0107 期中题 题型：阅读理解

    阅读理解。
        Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum asking what "PK" meant.
        "My family has been watching the 'Super Girl' singing competition TV program. My little daughter asked
    me what 'PK' means, but I had no idea," explained the puzzled father.
        To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online, it is impossible not to know that
    item. 
        In such Internet games, "PK" is short for "Player Kill", in which two players fight until one ends the life
    of the other. 
        In the case of the "Super Girl" singing competition, "PK" was used to refer to the stage where two singers
    have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition ranking.
        Like this puzzled father, Chinese teachers at high schools have also been finding their students' composition
    using Internet jargon (行话) difficult to understand.
        A high school teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write up compositions with colloquial (口语的)
    language, but they came up with a lot of Internet jargon that she didn't understand.
        " My 'GG' came back this summer from college. He told me I've grown up to be a 'PLMM': I love to 'FB'
    with him together; he always took me to the 'KPM', went one composition."
        "GG" means Ge Ge (Chinese pinyin for brother ). "PLMM" refers to Piao Liang Mei Mei (beautiful sister ).
    "FB" means "to corrupt". "KPM" is short for KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonalds.
        While some specialists welcome Internet jargon as a new development in language, teachers are worried
    that too much use of such language might lead students away from the "right" usages. Parents especially
    worry that their children might not do well in language tests because of the use of Internet language. 
        Such as those mixed feelings are, the conciseness and liveliness of Internet language continues to attract
    Internet users for making convenient communications.
        If you do not even know what a Kong Long (dinosaur, referring to ugly-looking female) or a Qing Wa (frog,
    referring to ugly-looking male)is, then you will possibly be regarded as a Cai Niao!
    1. By writing the article, the writer tries to ______.
    [     ]
    A. explain some Internet jargon
    B. suggest normalizing Internet language
    C. draw our attention to Internet language use
    D. support teachers and parents.
    2. What does the writer think about the term "PK"?
    [     ]
    A. Fathers can't possibly know it.
    B. The daughter should understand it.
    C. Online game players must know it.
    D. "Super Girl" shouldn't have used it.
    3. According to the composition, the underlined word "corrupt" probably means "______".
    [     ]
    A. change the traditional form of something
    B. often have good food or do something expensive
    C. encourage someone to behave in a dishonest way
    D. often have some sports to become strong
    4. The example of the Beijing father and the Tianjin teacher are used to show that Internet jargon ______.
    [     ]
    A. is used not only online
    B. contains many interesting expressions
    C. is hard to understand by the elders
    D. causes trouble to our mother tongue
