题目内容

He lives _______ to John than I,but does not get in touch with him as _______ as I do.?

A.closer;close         B.closer;closely?

C.more closely;close      D.more closely;closely

B

close和closely都可作副词,但close表示具体位置的“靠近”,而closely表示抽象意义“紧密地,密切地”。前一个句子中有than,而且根据动词live,说明是住得近,所以用close的比较级closer。后句中的as ...as表示“和……一样”,其中间的形容词要用原级,根据固定短语get in touch with意为“和……保持联系”,强调抽象意义,所以用副词closely。故正确答案为B项。

Calvin Coolidge (1872 – 1933) was the thirtieth president of the United States. He looked down on a person as being unworthy of respect who was too fond of talking about the details of others people’s actions and private lives because he had no time for small talks. The following two incidents clearly show how Collidge treasured silence.

When he was vice president, Coolidge had plenty of opportunities to participate (参加) in Washington’s social life, especially the many dinner parties. As be ignored the art of conversation, he couldn’t exactly make himself dear to his hostesses. One lady felt she could solve this problem. She placed him next to Alice Roosevelt Longworth, daughter of the former President Roosevelt. Mrs. Longworth, a very brilliant conversationalist (谈话者), began to talk in her usual charming manner, but all attempts to a wake the interest on the part of the vice president were unproductive. Finally, being shamed into anger, she said, “I’m sure that going to as many dinners as you do, you must get terribly bored.”

Without lifting his eyes from his plate, Coolidge said not very clearly, “Well, a man has to eat somewhere.

Later, when he was president and once again at a dinner party, Collidge was seated next to an outstanding society woman, one of those busybodies, who seemed to take delight in trying to change the lives of everyone they met. “Oh, Mr. President,” she spoke with too much enthusiasm, “you are always so quiet.

3.Mrs. Longworth got shamed and angry because         .

       A.the vice president took part in too many dinner parties

       C.the vice president didn’t speak exactly and clearly

阅读下面的短文,请根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)

When Dan Shaw gets up from the sofa in his home, Cuddles is never far away. When he wants to go outside, he doesn’t take Cuddles out for walk—Cuddles takes him for a walk. Cuddles is clearly no ordinary family pet. It is a two-foot-high miniature horse and serves as the guiding eyes of Shaw, who is blind.

When Shaw lost his sight, his wife suggested he apply for a guide dog. Shaw, an animal lover, said he couldn’t bear to part with a dog (which usually lives about eight to ten years) and get used to a new one, perhaps several times in his life.

Then Shaw heard of a program about the tiny guide horses. He learned that the horse possess many qualities that that make them an excellent choice for guiding people. They are clean, friendly, smart and have great memories. They can be trained to remain calm in noisy and crowded places. Best of all, they live for 25-25years, which would enable Shaw to have the same guide companion for most or all of his life.

Shaw immediately applied and was accepted as the first person to receive a guide horse. The instant he met Cuddles, he knew he was making the right choice. Then he began his training.

Through training, Shaw and Cuddles learned to find way on busy streets, step over curbs(便道沿儿)and find elevator buttons. Cuddles even demonstrated(显示)its ability to step in front of Shaw and block him, to prevent him from walking into a dangerous situation. The little horse also expertly led Shaw through busy shopping malls. They got along without any difficulties. Now Shaw is confident that Cuddles will change his life for the better.

1.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “miniature” in Paragraph 1?(No more than 2 words)

2. Why didn’t Shaw want to choose a dog as his guide? (No more than 15 words)

3.What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us? (No more than 10 words)

4.How does Shaw feel about his future life with the help of Cuddles? (No more than 10 words)

5.In your opinion, what is the ideal relationship between man and animals? (No more than 20 words).
