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。

If the crust (外壳) of the earth were not pretty solid (坚固的), it would be shaking about and moving up and down frequently. However, there are places in the rocks of the earth’s crust where it isn’t strongly held together—where faults exist. Along the faults, one rock might push against another with great force. The energy is changed to vibration in the rocks, so they begin to shake and we have an earthquake!

The most famous one in North America was the San Francisco earthquake of 1906. Seven hundred people died and property (财产) damage amounted to about $425,000,000.The greatest destruction came from the fires that followed the quake.

One of the most famous earthquakes in Europe took place in Lisbon, Portugal, in 1755. The city was destroyed and at least thirty thousand people were killed. In 1908, in Calabria and Sicily, a quake killed about seventyfive thousand people. In 1915, in central Italy, hundreds of towns and villages were damaged and thirty thousand people were killed.

Two great earthquakes that caused great damage in Asia took place in Tokyo, Japan, and in Gansu Province in China. The Tokyo quake of 1923 killed more than one hundred thousand people and destroyed the city and the city of Yokohama, too. The Chinese quake in 1920 covered more than three hundred square miles and killed about two hundred thousand people.

初,武李陵俱为侍中。武使匈奴,明年,陵降,不敢求武。久,单于使陵至海上,为武置酒设乐。因谓武曰:单于闻陵子卿厚,故使陵来说足下,虚心欲相待。终不得归汉,空自苦亡人之地,信义安所见乎?前长君奉车,从至雍棫阳宫,扶辇下,触柱折辕,劾大不敬,伏剑自刎,赐钱二百万葬。孩卿从祠河东后土,宦骑与黄门驸马争船,推堕驸马河中溺死,宦骑,诏使孺卿逐捕,不得,惶恐饮药而死。来时太夫人已不幸,陵送葬至阳陵。子卿妇年少,闻已更嫁矣。独有女弟二人,两女一男,今复十余年,存亡不可知。人生如朝露,何久自苦如此!陵始降时,忽忽如狂,自痛负汉,加老母保宫。子卿不欲降,何以过陵?且陛下春秋高,法令亡常,大臣亡罪夷灭者数十家,安危不可知,子卿尚复谁为乎?愿听陵计,勿复有云。武曰:武父子亡功德,皆陛下所成就,位列将,爵通侯,兄弟亲近,常愿肝脑涂地。今得杀身自效,虽蒙斧钺汤镬,诚甘乐之。臣事君,犹子事父也,子为父死,无所恨,愿勿复再言!

陵与武饮数日,复曰:子卿壹听陵言!武曰:自分已死久矣!王必欲降武,请毕今日之,效死于前!陵见其至诚,喟然叹曰:嗟乎,义士!陵与卫律之罪上通于天!因泣下霑衿,与武决去。

【1】下列各句加线的词解释不正确的一项是

A扶辇下,触柱折辕 除:台阶。

B推堕驸马河中溺死,宦骑 亡:死亡。

C单于闻陵与子卿 素:一向。

D加以老母保宫 系:拘押。

2下列语句中加线字的意义和用法相同的一项是

A,单于使陵至海上 空自苦亡人

B前长君奉车 陛下所成就

C赐钱二百万 老母系保宫

D李陵俱为侍中 单于闻陵子卿素厚

3下列语句编成四组,全部是李陵劝苏武投降的理由的一项是

单于闻陵与子卿素厚

终不得归汉,空自苦亡人之地

子卿妇年少,闻已更嫁矣

人生如朝露,何久自苦如此

大臣亡罪夷灭者数十家

臣事君,犹子事父也

A①④⑤ B①③⑥ C②③⑤ D②④⑥

【4】下列对本文内容的评述中,有误的一项是

A先至匈奴且投降匈奴的李陵在武使匈奴后不敢求武,今天看来,是李陵愧见武

B李陵说降,先言苏武家人的不幸,以绝其归汉之思后言自身异志的前因后果,欲将心比心,希望以情动之。

C从苏武对李陵劝降的答语可以看出,苏武的忠汉拒降,一是知恩图报,二是忠君传统。

D节选的文字是将苏武的忠君与李陵的叛国对比展现的。今天看来,苏武的报恩、忠君未免狭隘,但这正是古代仁人志士爱国的基础和途径。

(1)终不得归汉,空自苦亡人之地,信义安所见乎?

译文:________________________________________

(2)大臣亡罪夷灭者数十家,安危不可知。

译文:________________________________________

(3)王必欲降武,请毕今日之,效死于前!

阅读短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

My parents were in a huge argument, and I was really upset about it. I didn't know who I should talk with about how I was feeling. So I asked Mom to allow me to stay the night at my best friend's house. Though I knew I wouldn't tell her about my parents’ situation, I was looking forward to getting out of the house. I was in the middle of packing up my things when suddenly the power went out in the neighborhood. Mom came to tell me that I should stay with my grandpa until the power came back on.

I was really disappointed because I felt that we did not have much to talk about. But I knew he would be frightened alone in the dark. I went to his room and told him that I'd stay with him until the power was restored. He was quite happy and said, “Great opportunity.”

“What is it?” I asked.

“To talk, you and I” he said. “To hold a private little meeting about what we’re going to do with your mom and dad, and what we're going to do with ourselves now that we're in the situation we are in.”

“But we can't do anything about it. Grandpa,” I said, surprised that here was someone with whom I could share my feelings and someone who was in the same “boat” as I was.

And that's how the most unbelievable friendship between my grandfather and me started. Sitting in the dark, we talked about our feelings and fears of life from how fast things change to how they sometimes don't change fast enough. That night, because the power went out, I found a new friend, with whom I could safely talk about all my fears and pains, whatever they may be. Suddenly, the lights all came back on. “Well,” he said, “I guess that means you'll want to go now. I really like our talk. I hope the power will go out every few nights!”

【1】I wished to get out of the house because __________.

A. I was eager to have fun with my best friend

B. I found nobody to share my feelings with

C. I wanted to escape from the dark house

2Grandpa was happy to see me because __________.

A. he could discuss the problem with me

B. he had not seen me for a long lime
