A [2015 .山东省滕州高三模拟]

As I grew older, my dad and I grew further apart. We al?ways had totally different opinions. He thought that college was a waste of time, but for me it was important to finish col?lege. He wanted me to work my way to the top as he had done in his field, but I wanted a different life. There was a time when we did not talk with each other.

A few months ago, I heard that my 84-year-old dad was in poor health. When he called and asked whether I could move from Colorado back to Tennessee to help him, I knew he was seriously ill. I am his only child and so it was time to meet my father's requirement.

Two weeks after moving back, we bought a boat and started fishing again. Fishing was one of the few things that we did while I was young and that we both enjoyed. It is strange but true that as we are fishing we are able to put things that have kept us apart for so many years behind us. We are able to talk about things that we have never talked about before. Fishing has been healing the old wounds that have kept us apart.

It is not important how many fish we catch. It is about enjoying the relationship that we have not had for years. I' m 62 and he is 84. When we are on the lake fishing, it is like two kids enjoying life. It is far better to find a way to put the un?happy past behind. I am so lucky to spend the happy time with my father in his last years. Now my heart is filled with love. A smile always graces my lips.

Time talks. It speaks more plainly than words. Time 9 in many ways.

Consider the different parts of the day, for example. The time of the day when something is done can give a 10 meaning to the event. It is not a 11 to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, 12 he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that something is urgent and 13 immediate at?tention.

The same meaning is 14 telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he may think it is a 15 of life and death. The time chosen for the call 16 its importance.

In social life, time plays a very 17 part. In the Unit?ed States, guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the 18 to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But this is not 19 in all coun?tries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered fool?ish to make an appointment too far 20 because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be 21 .

The meaning of time 22 from place to place in the world. 23 ， misunderstandings often arise between people from different cultures that 24 time differently. For ex?ample, promptness(准时）is 25 greatly in American life. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as 26 or not fully responsible.

B [2015 •成都外国语学校高三月考] There are many ways of defining success. It is accurate to say that each of us has our own idea of success to the ex?tent that each of us is responsible for setting our own goals and determining whether we have met these goals satisfactori?ly. Because each of us possesses unique differences in genetic ability and favourable environments in which to express these abilities, it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly.

For some people,simply being able to live their life with the least misery and sufferings is considered a success. Think of the peace of mind of the poor shepherd who tends his sheep, enjoys his simple life with his family in the beauty of nature, and who is respected because he does a good job of achieving the goals expected of him and accepted by his family and his society. On the other hand, it seems that even though some people appear to be rich in material possessions, many of them seem to be miserable and consider themselves unsuc?cessful when judged by their own standards of success. Be?cause not all ventures can be successful, one should not set unrealistic goals for achieving success, but if one has self-con?fidence it would be unfortunate to set one's goals at too low a level of achievement.

A wise man once said to a young man who was experien?cing frustration (挫折)with his own professional success, "You do not have to set your goal to reach the moon in order to have success in travelling. Sometimes one can be very suc?cessful merely by taking a walk in the park or riding the sub?way downtown. " The man added, "You have not really failed and spoiled your chances for success until you have been un?successful at something you really like,and to which you have given your best effort."

5.According to the first paragraph, what is implied as basic in achieving success?

A. Ability and goals.

B. Goals and determination.

C. Ability and environment.

D. Goals and environment.

6. Some rich people consider themselves unsuccessful because ________ .

A. their life is busy and miserable

B. they haven't reached their own standards

C. they set their goals at too low a level

D. they are not rich in material possessions

7. From the last paragraph we can tell that_______________ .

A. success means achieving great goals

B. success comes from great goal setting

C. success means efforts and favourites pay off

D. success has nothing to do with the distance of your travel

8.The purpose of the passage is___________ .

A. to give us a clear definition of what success is

B. to talk about how to achieve success

C. to state what our life goal is

D. to discuss the importance of goals

The adolescent girl from Tennessee was standing on the stage of a drama summer camp in New York. But the girl didn't feel joyful. She was not the leggy, attrac?tive Hollywood type. In fact, she described herself as stupid.

This girl was Reese Witherspoon, who had wanted to be a country singer and admired and respected Dolly Parton very much.

That day at the end of the camp her coaches told her to forget about singing. They suggested she think about another career. She took their words to heart. After all,why shouldn't she believe the professionals?

But back at home in Nashville, her mother―a fun?ny, happy, optimistic woman—wouldn't let her feel de?pressed. Her father, a physician, encouraged her to achieve in school. So she worked hard at everything and was accepted into Stanford University.

And at 19, she got a part in a low-budget movie called Freeway, which prepared for her role in the mov?ie Pleasantville. But her big break came with Legally Blonde.

"If you can't sing and you aren't charming, play to your strengths. If you're going to make it in this busi?ness, better focus on what you're good at,"she told the interviewer later.

And then came the offer that took her back to her Nashville—playing the wife of a country star Johnny Cash,a singing role.

All of a sudden the old fears learned on that sum?mer stage were back. She was so nervous on the stage. But she didn't give up on the movie or herself. She spent 6 months taking singing lessons again. She learned to play the autoharp. And the hard work built up her confi?dence.

Last March, Reese Witherspoon walked up on an?other stage, the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, and ac?cepted the Oscar as Best Actress for her heartbreaking, heart-warming singing role as June Carter Cash in Walk the Line.

1. Why was Reese Witherspoon sad that day?

A.The experts advised her to give up singing.

B.Dolly Parton told her to leave the stage.

C.The coaches described her as foolish.

D.The professionals considered her ignorant.

2.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?

A.Reese was an optimistic girl.

B.Her parents supported her a lot.

C.Her parents were disappointed with her.

D.Reese blamed herself all day long.

3.How did Reese succeed in playing the singing role?

A.She did her best to make herself leggy and at?tractive.

B.She tried hard to forget about that summer stage.

C.She practised autoharp lessons for more than 6 months.

D.She regained her confidence through hard work.

4.What can we learn from Reese's experience?

A.Two heads are better than one.

B.When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

C.Where there is a will, there is a way.

D.Hope for the best,and prepare for the worst.

I think university life is a time for learning and experien?cing new things. I can meet the other young people like me from many different places and can make lots friends. I will probably study and live away at home during this time, so I will have a lot more independent. Studying at university will

be quite differently from studying at high school. I may not have so many homework to finish every day, but I will have to spend much more time working by myself. I know that in any university they are different societies or clubs organizing by the students themselves. I want to join the film society

and the travel club because I show interest in both activities. This societies and clubs can make my life interesting and helped me make friends.
