阅读理解     Our boat floated on between walls of forest. It was too thick to allow us a view of the land we were
passing through, though we knew from the map that our river must from time to time be passing through
chains of hills which crossed the jungle plains. Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed: where the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river, banks of soft mud prevented us form
going ashore. In any case, what would we have gained by landing? The country was full of snakes and
other dangerous creatures and the jungle was so thick that one would be able to advance slowly, cutting
one"s way with knives the whole way. So we stayed in the boat, hoping that when we reached the sea, a
friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization.
     As for water, there was a choice. We could drink the muddy river water, or die of thirst. We drank the water. Men who have just escaped from what appeared to be certain death lost all worries about such
small things as diseases caused by dirty water. In fact, none of us suffered from any illness as a result.
    One day we passed another village, but fortunately nobody saw us. We did not wish to risk being taken prisoners a second time: we might not be so lucky as to escape in a stolen boat again.1. It can be inferred from the passage that the only thing they could see in a boat was __________.A. tall trees

阅读理解

     I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not know the American society until I was
injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court. After the
accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day.
But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good
reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me to find a good doctor, it was only
fair that I should pay him.
      But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three
patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each
time. The final examination report only contained ten lines, and it cost me $215.
     My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew
very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited
to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to fire him. And he made me pay him $770.
     Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Because of my inexperience, I told the insurance the date I was
leaving America. Knowing that, they played for, time …and I left without getting a cent.
     My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is
everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality; secondly, foreigners are
still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its advantages and
disadvantages.

1. The author’s roommate offered to help him because ________.

A. he felt sorry for the author.            
B. he thought it was a chance to make some money
C. he knew the doctor was a very good one  
D. he wanted the author to have a good lawyer

2. A good lawyer is important for the author to ________.

A. be properly treated              
B. talk with the person responsible for the accident
C. recover before he leaves America
D. eventually get the responsible party to pay for his injury

3. Which is wrong according the the passage?

A. The author has learned a lot through the experience.
B. Everything about America is advantageous.
C. The author"s roommate helped him but charged for that.
D. The author"s final examination report only contained ten lines but cost $215.

4. The word charge in the passage means _____.   

A. be responsible    
B. entertain    
C. ask to pay    
D. repay

5. What conclusion can you draw from this story?

A. Going to court is something very common in America. 
B. One must be very careful while driving a car.
C. There are more disadvantages in America than advantages.
D. Money is more important than other things in the US.

阅读理解     My friend got married. His mother carried two bags of cotton from the countryside by bus and train
to his city. After arriving at the city, there was still a long way to his house without any bus passing by the
house. His mother walked to his home breathlessly for 40 minutes without taking a taxi in order to save
money.
     My friend felt bitter as well as funny as his mother’s deeds. He pointed to the cashmere (山羊绒) and
silk quilts and said, “So long as you have money, you can buy anything in the supermarket. There is no
need for you to carry so much cotton here in such a long way.”
      But his mother insisted and said, “The cotton of this year is light and warmth-keeping. Have a try and
you will know!”
     Maybe every parent is the same, caring for their children with stubborn love without caring about
whether they know or like it.
     This early spring, I went to visit my grandmother. We had dry beans stew (炖菜), eggplant salad
bar, sauce radish (酱萝卜条)for our dinner, all of which were dried by my grandmother last autumn
and tasted wonderful. I loved the dishes to my heart’s content and could not help praising them again and
again.
     After a few days, my grandmother, who seldom visited us, came to my home and unpacked her bag,
smilin gly taking out bags of dried eggplants, dried beans and dried vegetable. She told me that I left so
hastily last time that she forgot to give me some of these foods, so she took this chance to bring me what I
liked.
     I was speechless at that time. Due to my casual complimentary her food, my grandmother , a nearly
70-year-old lady, by taking three buses from the west of the city to the east, came to my home with the
food I liked. But she was bus-sick in life and even seldom went strolling in the street.
     My pretty girlfriend had a failed marriage in the past. After divorce, her parents shed the deepest
protection and care to her by helping her attend to the child and offering financial aids. Her parents’love
made her pull herself together and forgot the man who had hurt her before.
     Nonetheless, her father, an honest and upright old man, after hearing his ex-son-in-law got promoted
in his company, felt terrifically irritatedand went to his company to question his boss why a
philanderingman with corrupt conducts could get promoted. The whole office fell into a mess immediately
and many staff just watched on the sidelines. Some people even whispered lightly, "It is a new era now
and the relationship between men and women is very open. No one would care about that any more!"
     The old man stood silently in the office with his hands shivering and eyes tearing.
     That night, my girlfriend cried heavily in front of me. I asked her whether it was her father’s stupid
deeds that made her feel humiliated. But she said that she felt guilty for her dad and that though the rest
of the whole world betrayed her, her old father would still back her up and help her get the justice she
deserved, just as when she was young and the neighboring boy grabbed her ball, her father would get it
back for her. However, this changed world was no longer the stage for her old father and his deeds
became funnily obsolete. No one managed to see the real and ever-lasting love to his daughter behind his
seemingly rude behaviors.
     Now we have grown up, so much so that we could support our family and have our own children.
But in our parents’ heart, they are still worried that we do not have sufficient quilts and dried vegetables.
They would not feel troubled to bring all these to us regardless of long tough journey. They even would
not like us to suffer a bit and try all means to protect us without caring about whether what they do is
awkward and stupid or no
     Who in the world would love us so deeply and relentlessly without asking for any repay? Only our
parents!

1. What does the author want to tell us?

A. The love from our parents is real and deep though sometime it doesn"t appear so.
B. The love from our parents is awkward sometime, which is rather annoying.
C. Children should appreciate parents" love because their life is so hard.
D. The world is changing so the love of parents should change too.

2. What does the underlined world "humiliate" in the eleventh paragraph mean?

A. guilty        
B. Moved
C. happy      
D. ashamed      

3. How many examples are there in the passage?

A. One        
B. Two        
C. Three      
D. four

4. After the author"s girlfriend"s former husband got promoted, her farther _____?

A. congratulated him    
B. Made his daughter marry him again
C. had a quarrel with him  
D. argued with his boss

5.What kind of woman is the author"s grandmother?

A. upright and honest  
B. loving and troublesome    
C. thoughtful and careful
D. generous and active
