A [2015 .洛阳高三二模] One winter, my cousin and I were playing toy blocks in the yard. My mum was out for shopping to get groceries and my dad was asleep upstairs in his room. Suddenly, it started to snow. First it was just a little. But then it started to pour heavily.

 Then, we put the finishing touches to our blocks and headed back inside. Right when I opened the sliding glass door, my cousin fell down on the slippery wooden stairs. I let go of the door, my worst mistake, you see. The door locks automatically ? but I had put a rock right next to the door so it wouldn't close. But while I was running to my cousin's aid, I'd accidentally kicked the rock.

Now, my cousin and I were locked outside. And unfor?tunately it started to get really windy. It was really freezing with the snow. First we started to call my dad, but he was sleeping soundly. I mean he was sleeping through a tornado soundly. It was of no use.

 Then I tried to climb over the fence but it didn't work be?cause the fence was iced up by snow and wind, and the fence was six feet high. So, I climbed up to my tree house and brainstormed some ideas on ways to get in. At one point, I was seriously considering jumping out of the tree house and use the trampoline(蹦床)to jump over the fence.

   So, we got to work. First, I took out the trampoline. Then I started to jump. First try―I almost cracked my head. Second try―this time I convinced my cousin to do it but at the last second, he chickened out. Third try―I jumped and missed but at the last second, my hand caught the fence, and with a lot of pushing I finally climbed over the fence and luck?ily, I fell on a big snowdrift.

  Finally, my mum came back. Then I got inside and un?locked the door for my cousin to get in. Then we shared this story with my mum and dad.

1.When the author wanted to jump in, the main problem was that .

 

A.    the fence was icy

B.     the fence was slippery and high

C.     the trampoline couldn't bear the weight

D.    the trampoline was too small

2. The attitude of the author's cousin towards jumping on the trampoline seems .

A. passive                        B. positive

C. indifferent                      D. objective

3. The underlined words " chickened out" in Paragraph 5 most probably mean " ".

 4. Which would be the best title of the text?

A [2015 •哈尔滨六中二模]

  Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy―they're given after all. Choices can be hard.

I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2 , 300 per cent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I'd been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start?ups don't, and that I wasn't sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy? I'd been a garage inventor. Id always wanted to be an inventor, and she wan?ted me to follow my passion.

I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and fi?nally said, "That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job. " That logic made some sense to me, and he con?vinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but ultimately (最后),I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.

After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.

D.  The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.

 

3. We can know from the passage that .

 

A.the boss thought the idea was suitable for the author

B.the author wanted someone else to try the idea

Can you imagine a world without chocolate? It's not something I'd like to do, so I was relieved to read that there's a university with a programme to safeguard the future of chocolate!

The University of Reading, in England, has just opened a new clearing house for all the world's new cocoa varieties. 丁hey must be quarantined(隔离)before they can be grown. Why? Cocoa production hit a record high of 4. 4 million tons last year but about 30% of the precious crop is regularly lost to pests and diseases. Now we don't want that, do we?

Demand for chocolate has been increasing faster than the world's supply of cocoa and researchers think that new varie?ties are key to solving this problem.

The University of Reading has been protecting the quali?ty of the new crops since 1985, after it took over the task from the Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew, London. And it has improved its facilities. The leader of the institution's co?coa project, Professor Paul Hadley, says, "One of the main issues concerning cocoa improvement is the supply of reliably clean, healthy and interesting cocoa material.,,

The cocoa centre has a collection of 400 plant varieties and the greenhouse uses a lot of energy to keep them in tropi?cal conditions. After up to two years in quarantine, clean and safe seeds are sent to some 20 countries, including several in West Africa. That's where 75 % of the cocoa used for choco?late worldwide comes from. The crop is extremely important for the local economy: it employs about two million people.

Professor Hadley says he works with a small team of skilled technicians who look after the collection. And more of us seem to count on them now.

The scientist says, "There is some concern within the in?dustry that demand is increasing constantly, particularly in countries like China, where the standard of living is increas?ing and people are getting a taste for different kinds of choco?late. "

1.  What is the text mainly about?

A.     Safeguarding cocoa seeds.

B.     Planting cocoa worldwide.

C.     Keeping cocoa in greenhouses.

D.     Finding the new market for cocoa.

 

2. The institution's cocoa project is to_____________ .

 

A.     have cocoa skin removed

B.     offer more jobs to people

C.     ensure the quality of cocoa

D.     supply cocoa for two million people

3. What does the last paragraph tell us?

 

A.     The taste of chocolate is changing.

B.     Demand for cocoa is increasing fast.

C.     People are concerned about cocoa varieties.

D.     Chinese have a long history of eating chocolate.

4. What's the purpose of the text?

A. To educate.                          B.  To advertise.

C.  To warn.                           D.  To inform.
