【题目】阅读理解

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。

I entered high school having read hundreds of books. But I was not a good reader. Merely bookish, I lacked a point of view when I read. Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, ideas, themesanything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a complicated(复杂的) idea until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony(嘲讽) or its very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times.(How, after all, could one read a book more than once?)And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length.(Could anything shorter be a book?)

There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization.”“More than anything else in my life,”the professor told the reporter with finality, these books have made me all that I am. That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato’s The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition(迷信) of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by the time I reached the last word, pleased, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.

【1】On hearing the teacher’s suggestion of reading, the writer thought ________.

A. one must read as many books as possible

B. a student should not have a complicated idea

C. it was impossible for one to read two thousand books

D. students ought to make a list of the books they had read

【2】 While at high school, the writer ________.

A. had plans for reading

B. learned to educate himself

C. only read books over 100 pages

D. read only one book several times

【3】 The writer’s purpose in mentioning The Republic is to ________.

A. explain why it was included in the list

B. describe why he seriously crossed it off the list

C. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understand

D. prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word

【4】The writer provides two book lists to ________.

A. show how he developed his point of view

B. tell his reading experience at high school

C. introduce the two persons’ reading methods

D. explain that he read many books at high school

【题目】A little boy invited his mother to attend his elementary(初级的) school’s first teacher-parent meeting. To the little boy’s unhappiness, she said she would go. This would be the first time that his classmates and teacher met his mother and he was embarrassed by her appearance. 【1】 she was a beautiful woman, there was a severe scar(伤痕)___2___covered nearly the whole right side of her face. The boy never wanted to talk about why or how she got the scar.

At the meeting, the people were impressed by the kindness and natural beauty of his mother though she had a scar on her face, but the little boy was still embarrassed and hid himself from everyone. He did, however, get within earshot of(在听力范围之内) a conversation ___3____ his mother and his teacher, and heard them speaking.

‘‘How did you get the scar on your face? ’’ The teacher asked.

The mother replied, ‘‘When my son was a baby, he was in a room that caught on fire. Everyone was too afraid to go in 4 the fire was out of control, so I went in. As I was rushing toward his bed, I saw a beam(房梁) coming down and I placed myself over him trying to protect him. I was knocked unconscious(无意识的) but fortunately, a fireman came in and saved both of us.’’ She touched the burned side of her face. ‘‘This scar will be on my face for ever, but to this day, I have never regretted doing ____5___I did.’’

At this point, the little boy came out , running towards his mother with tears in his eyes. He hugged her and felt a great sense of the sacrifice that his mother had made for him. He held her hand tightly for the rest of the day.
