of donkeys that are pulling a two-wheeled cart. they arrive at the agricultural town of awassa where yohannes opens the sides of the cart to display, not the usual vegetables or tools, but childrens books. this is the donkey mobile library, the first of its kind in ethiopia and one of only a few in the world. yohannes was born in ethiopia, north africa, but trained to be a librarian in the usa and returned to ethiopia years ago. the cart is full of picture books donated by american libraries, teachers and school children. yohannes arranges small painted benches in the shade of the trees, and suddenly ethiopian children come shouting and racing down every road and path. its mobile library day! they circle the bookshelves with great excitement. until the donkey mobile library began its regular two-monthly visits, many of these children had never seen a book. “without books, education is very dull, like food without salt. you can survive but you cant really come alive,” says yohannes. “the ability to read is the basis for greater productivity, better health and longer life. even though the children lack material goods, with books they can imagine a world of possibilities.” yohannes first worked in the childrens section of the main library in america. surrounded by books he had never seen before, he realized how joyful and imaginative childrens literature is. he says, “i always thought of ethiopia. but how could i bring childrens books to my home country when it had almost no libraries to keep the books in?” he contacted jane kurtz, a writer born in america but brought up in ethiopia, and together they created the donkey mobile library. the children say that the library has given them ideas about what they might do in the future. a child called dareje wants to be a scientist and find a cure for life-threatening diseases. an eleven-year-old girl, fikerte, wants to do research about the moon and discover new facts about outer space. tamrat, aged 10, comes every time. “what brings you back here time and time again?” the librarian asks him. “the stories,” tamrat replies instantly.36.how do the children feel when they see the donkey mobile library? a. curious. b. surprised. c. interested. d. excited.37. we can conclude from the passage that _. a. ethiopian children have no idea about their future b. yohannes and kurtz share similar life experiences c. donkey carts in awassa usually carry vegetables and tools d. most books in the donkey mobile library were bought in america38. according to the passage, the donkey mobile library _ . a. visits the countryside every day b. benefits ethiopian children a lot c. was created by yohannes himself d. was the first of its kind in the world39. where is the passage most likely to have been taken from? a. a news report. b. a book review. c. a historical story. d. an advertisement.a. no pains, no gains b. pain and actionsc. the value of fear d. the reason why people fear b康杰中学20132014学年度第一学期第二次月考william butler yeats, a most famous irish writer, was born in dublin on june 13, 1865. his childhood lacked the harmony（和睦）that was typical of a happy family. later, yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. in fact, he inherited（继承）excellent taste in art from his familyboth his father and his brother were painters. but he finally settled on literature, particularly drama（戏剧）and poetry. yeats had strong faith in the coming of new artistic movements. he set himself the fresh task in founding an irish national theatre in the late 1890s. his early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at beginning. he didnt lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.compared with his dramatic works, yeatss poems attract much admiring notice. the subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. though yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. as his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.he had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the nobel price in 1923. yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. had yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. after yeats death in 1939, w. h. auden wrote, among others, the following lines:earth, receive an honored guest:william yeats is laid to rest.let the irish vessel（船）lieemptied of its poetry.40. which of the following can describe yeatss family?a. it filled yeatss childhood with laughterb. it was shocked by yeatss choicec. it was a typically wealthy familyd. it had an artistic atmosphere41. according to the passage, what do we know about yeatss life?a. yeats founded the first irish theaterb. yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetryc. yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910sd. yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 noble prize42. what kind of feeling is expressed in w. h. audens lines? a. envyb. sympathyc. emptinessd. admiration43. what is the passage mainly about? a. yeatss literary achievementsb. yeatss historical influencec. yeatss artistic ambitiond. yeatss national

court.there had been a rain, and the ground was very soft. water was dripping from the trees, and the grass was wet. the four lawyers rode along, one behind another, for the pathway was narrow, and the mud on each side of it was deep. they rode slowly, and talked and laughed and were very cheerful. as they were passing through a group of small trees, they heard a greatfluttering（振抖）over their heads and a weak sound made by small birds in the grass by the roadside.“stith! stith! stith!” came from the leafy branches above them.“cheep! cheep! cheep!” came from the wet grass.“what is the matter here?” asked the first lawyer, whose name was speed. “oh, its only some old robins(知更鸟)!”said the second lawyer, whose name was hardin. “the storm has blown two of the little ones out of the nest. they are too young to fly, and the mother bird is worried about them.”“what a pity! theyll die down there in the grass,” said the third lawyer.“oh, well! theyre nothing but birds,” said mr. hardin. “why should we bother?”“yes, why should we?” said mr. speed.the three men, as they passed, looked down and saw the little birds fluttering in the cold, wet grass. they saw the mother robin flying about, and crying to her mate. then they rode on, talking and laughing as before. in a few minutes they had forgotten about the birds. but the fourth lawyer, whose name was abraham lincoln, stopped. he got down from his horse and very gently took the little ones up in his big warm hands. they did not seem frightened, but cried softly, as if they knew they were safe.“never mind, my little fellows,” said mr. lincoln “i will put you in your own cozy little bed.”then he looked up to find the nest from which they had fallen. it was high, much higher than he could reach.but mr. lincoln could climb. he had climbed many a tree when he was a boy. he put the birds softly, one by one, into their warm little home. two other baby birds were there that had not fallen out. all cuddled（依偎）down together and were very happy.soon the three lawyers who had ridden ahead stopped at a spring to give their horses water.“where is lincoln?” asked one.all were surprised to find that he was not with them.“do you remember those birds?” said mr. speed. “very likely he has stopped to take care of them.”in a few minutes mr. lincoln joined them. his shoes were covered with mud; he had torn his coat on the thorny tree.“hello, abraham!” said mr. hardin. “where have you been?”“i stopped a minute to give those birds to their mother,” he answered.“well, we always thought you were a hero,” said mr. speed. “now we know it.”then all three of them laughed heartily. they thought it so foolish that a strong man should take so much trouble just for some worthless young birds.“gentlemen,” said mr. lincoln, “i could not have slept tonight, if i had left those helpless little robins to die in the wet grass.”abraham lincoln afterwards became very famous as a lawyer and statesman. he was elected president. next to washington he was the greatest.47. the reading passage is a story mainly about_.a. four lawyers b. wildlife in danger c. some little birds d. abraham
