A B C D 四个选项中 选出最佳选项 并 在答题卡上将该选项涂黑 A My dearest son and daughter The story of New Jersey high school student Rachel Canning suing 起诉 her parents for child support and high school education inspired me to write you a little letter Let me just put this out there the only way I expect to see you in a court is as a lawyer or a judge There are two things about this case that seem to be disaster First it s natural for parents and children to argue I can guarantee that we will disagree One or both of you will at some point scream at the top of your lungs the various ways you hate me And I won t always like you either But I will always love you and do everything I can to keep your best interests as my focus even when I m so angry We are family That means we are as much a part of one another as the flesh blood and bones in our body And we all should think about it very deeply instead of breaking that bond Second I ll be honest no matter how far apart we are on your life choices your father and I will most certainly pay everything we can for your higher education But that doesn t mean you deserve it To be clear that is a privilege we happily extend 给予 to you not a right you are born with And you will have to work hard to earn that privilege Growing up is hard work If I do my job properly as your mother and you do yours as my children you would sooner get a job or two and find a way to make your dreams come true than go to trial over what you think you have the right to Love always Mom 21 The mother writes this letter because she wants her children to A be prepared for education B learn a lesson from the case C take up the legal profession D remember Rachel Canning 22 When in disagreement the mother expects her children not to A guarantee anything B scream out their anger C break the family bond D forget their best interests 23 The mother thinks of parents paying for their children s higher education as A a way in which children realize their dreams B a test of whether parents love their children C a privilege that children should earn D a right that parents are born with B It was my first day back home since starting college A lot had changed in the last year Not with my hometown but with me I had left as a 17 year old boy and had now returned as an 18 year old man In the city I was living on my own had a part time job and was studying Even the government recognized I was an adult I had a driver s license So here I was on my summer vacation walking down the main street with my father desperate for him to admit how mature I was When his recognition failed to appear I took matters into my own hands Dad I said casually I m thirsty Let s go for a beer It was the first time I d ever mentioned beer in front of my father let alone ask him to drink one with me He turned to me with a curious expression on his face A beer Well I guess you re old enough now Let s go to Sailors Bar It s where my cousin Tom your uncle used to drink You remember him right I had only some vague 模糊的 memories of my uncle He was the black sheep of the family We didn t talk about him much What ever happened to Uncle Tom Dad I haven t seen him in years I said as we continued towards the bar Neither have I unfortunately He was a good kid once But things changed my father said sadly As a boy he explained there had been no better behaved boy than Tom But after leaving school he moved to the city and fell in with bad company He started going out every night drinking in nightclubs and playing cards Soon he lost everything and had to beg his mum to pay his debts She agreed on the condition he returned home My dad took a deep breath and continued his tale Things settled down for a while He married a lovely woman gave up his bad habits But it didn t last He was soon back to his old ways He couldn t resist He was at Sailors Bar almost every night His poor mother died of grief and shame His wife followed her soon after What ruined him was alcohol He told me once when a man begins drinking he never knows where it ll end So Tom warned me beware of your first drink He went from bad to worse Last year Tom sent me a letter saying he had been found guilty of stealing and sent to prison for ten years Dad finished talking just as we reached the front of Sailors Bar Anyway here we are Let s go in he said But I understood I put my arm around my father and said I m not thirsty any more Dad Let s go home 24 Why did the young man invite his father to drink a beer 3 6 巴州二中 2016 2017 学年度第二学期期中考试试卷 高二年级英语试题 问卷 A Because he was thirsty B Because he wanted to impress his father casually C Because he wanted to show he was an adult D Because he wanted to discuss his Uncle Tom 25 What does the young man mean by referring to Uncle Tom as the black sheep of the family A The family was concerned about Tom because he was always in trouble B The family felt ashamed of Tom because he was a failure C The family showed sympathy to Tom because he was unfortunate D The family felt disgusted about him because he was different 26 What was the main source of Uncle Tom s problems A His overly strict family B His addiction to card games C The deaths of his mother and wife D His inability to control his drinking 27 In the story the father told his son about Tom in order to A convince the son of the harm caused by drinking B entertain the son while they walked to the bar C recall an interesting period in the father s life D warn the son to keep away from Tom C Modern humans have a hard time controlling their desire to eat Often you eat not because you are hungry but because you are affected by many other things How much you eat is strongly affected by how much those around you eat People eating alone eat least People eating with one other person eat 35 percent more than they do at home People dining in a party of four eat 75percent more Eating with overweight friends You ll eat more Is your waitress overweight You ll eat more Wide variety of food You ll eat more Plates can decide how sweet dessert tastes If people ate it off a paper plate they d say This is good If they ate it off a fancy silver plate they would say This is the greatest cake I ve eaten in my entire life Your knowledge about what makes food good or bad also affects how much you eat You tend to eat more when you think the food is good and less when you think it is bad So Grandma s cookies always taste better than other cookies Good food even has a health halo 光环 effect If we re eating something healthy we feel that everything in that meal is healthy Due to this people often believe that a cheese cake with a salad has fewer calories 卡路里 than the cheese cake alone That s perhaps also why eating organic 有机的 food might turn you into an annoying guy Your brain may use anything that makes you feel good about your own morality to excuse your immoral behaviour Food and hunger affect your judgment too Hungry judges give more serious sentences Kids who don t eat breakfast behave worse than kids who eat their breakfast People who have low blood sugar are more likely than the average person to have trouble concentrating and controlling their unpleasant emotions 28 What is mentioned as a cause of overeating A Suffering from great loneliness B Being served by a helpful waitress C Being treated to high quality food D Eating with many friends 29 According to the passage an annoying person may be one who A finds any excuse for eating more B is crazy about the quality of plates C competes with others in making cookies D teaches people to stick to morality 30 According to the passage people are more likely to make a bad judgment when A they don t feel hungry B they aren t overweight C they have low blood sugar D they know little about food 31 What would be the best title for the passage A When Can We Go on a Diet B What Affects Eating C How to Make Good Food D Where to Find Safe Food D Volunteer teaching in Surin Tailand Surin the heart of Thailand is

remembered for years 36 Put a reminder in your diary one or two weeks before the occasion so that you can start doing your shopping If your receivers live very far away and you need to mail the gift then advanced planning is even more important It will make sure that your gift gets to them on time Don t give based on what others give you We often hear people say She s spending 100 on me so I
