阅读理解(共10小题;每小题分,满分0分)
A
Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York-he in computers, she in special education. “Teaching means everything to us,” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some
serious thinking about life's purpose.
Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program
started by Dolly Parton's foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's hometown of Sevier, Tennessee.“I thought, maybe Linda and I
could do something like this when we retire,”Tim recalls.
He placed the brochure on his desk as a reminder.
Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library .com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage
of book and postage discounts.
The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a looksee. “We didn't want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda.The books—reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board
members—included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna
Dewdney's Llama Llama series.
Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they
have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area.Megan Williams, a mother of
four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I've never heard of .”
The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit
there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”
.What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?
A.His health problem.B.His love for teaching.
C.The influence of his wife.D.The news from the Web.
.What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?
A.Give out brochures.B.Do something similar.
C.Write books for childrenD.Retire from being a teacher.
.According to the text, Dollly Parton is________.
A.a wellknown surgeonB.a mother of a fouryearold
C.a singer born in TennesseeD.a computer programmer
.Why did the Richters go to Dollywood?
A.To avoid signing up online.
B.To meet Dollywood board members.
C.To make sure the books were the newest.
D.To see if the books were of good quality.
.What can we learn from Tim's words in the last paragraph?
A.He needs more money to help the children.
B.He wonders why some people are so busy.
C.He tries to save those waiting to die.
D.He considers his efforts worthwhile.
B
A powerful earthquake struck the northeastern coast of Japan at 2:46 p. m. local time on March 11th,2011.Japan's Meteorological Agency released its first tsunami warnings just three
minutes later.The country has one of the best earthquake early warning systems in the world.
There are over 4,000 Seismic Intensity Meters(地震烈度测量仪)in place throughout Japan to measure earthquake activity.These meters provide information with two minutes of an earthquake
happening.Information about the strength and the center of the earthquake can be learned within
three minutes.There are also concrete sea walls around much of the Japanese coastline.But these
measures proved no match for the powerful earthquake and tsunami.
Costas Synolakis is a tsunami expert in Los Angeles.He says,“Japan is one of those most wellprepared countries on earth in terms of tsunami warning.They had a warning.I think what went
wrong is that they had not anticipated the size of this event.”
He says there are two reasons for this.Japan has not had any event anywhere near as big as this
one in the last 150 years.And scientists had not expected such a large earthquake happening off the
coast of Japan.
The 9.0magnitude earthquake was the 4th most powerful earthquake ever recorded
worldwide.It was also the worst earthquake ever to hit Japan.The tsunami waves that followed were
reported to have reached as high as 13 meters in some areas.
Costas Synolakis says Japan's concrete sea walls were not built to handle such high waves.A
tsunami wave can travel as fast as 800 kilometers per hour.To get to higher ground people would
often have to travel for many kilometers.This can take more time than a fast traveling tsunami will
permit.This is especially true in cases like Japan,where the center of the earthquake struck so close to the coastline.The tsunami waves followed almost immediately.
Experts say early warning systems will continue to be limited by these_facts until earthquakes
and tsunamis can be predicted.
41.From the second paragraph we can infer that ________.
A.Japan is an island country
B.the center of the earthquake is located in the northeastern coast
C.the meters in Japan have dropped behind
D.many measures have been carried out to reduce the consequences of earthquakes in Japan
42.The underlined word “anticipated” in the third paragraph probably means “________”.
A.predicted
B.measured
C.counted
D.prevented
18.The underlined words “these facts” in the last paragraph refer to the following EXCEPT ________.
A.the concrete sea walls can't control the wave
B.it is the worst earthquake happening in Japan in the history
C.the speed of the tsunami is frightening and quick
D.there are many earthquakes in Japan
.Which may be the best title of this passage?
A.Earthquakes and tsunamis can be predicted
B.A 9.0 magnitude earthquake hit Japan
C.Japan's concrete sea walls
D.A report about Japan's early warning systems
.On which column of China Daily can you find the passage?
A.Technology
B.Culture discovery
C.Travel
D.History
答案 A [考查动词词义的辨析。mean to do sth打算干某事;而meant to do sth 则表示本来打算干而没有干。答语为省略句,补充完整为I meant to buy some butter,but...。句意:——你为什么没有买黄油?——我本来打算买的,但我忘了。]
答案 D [分析句子结构可知,第一空应为非谓语形式,devote to (doing)sth常在句子中作状语,其现在分词形式应为devoting sth/oneself to ;第二空考查动词的辨析,reward奖励;给以报酬;award 授予。句意:居里夫人由于献身科学研究而被两次授予诺贝尔奖。]
答案 C [考查冠词的用法。stage 舞台,此处表示泛指概念,应用不定冠词;players表演者,为复数名词表达泛指概念,不加冠词。句意:人们普遍认为世界就是一个大舞台,而所有的人就是这个舞台上的表演者。]
答案 B [考查名词词义的辨析。strength力量;力气; violence 暴力;暴行; power权力; activity活动。由语境可知,B项正确。句意:据报道,利比亚的暴力行为在激化。]
