Runners call it“hitting the wall”；I thought I couldnt move another muscle .Out of nowhere，a teenager jogs up next to me and says，“Whats your name，sweetie？Jennifer？Okay，Jennifer，lets go！Come on! Its just around the corner！You can do it！”And he ran with me until I picked up my pace. I found him at the finish line to thank him for the encouragement only to learn he wasnt even supposed to be in the race that day. He was running in place of someone else.I still shake my head when I think of these momentary angels that came to me at my point of need. Do you have any experiences like this?1Which of the following is the best title for the passage?AThe Kindness of StrangersBAn Unpleasant CompanionCTwo Special ExperiencesDHitting the Wall答案：A推理推断题。文章第一段便是文章的主题，句中的something unexpectedly nice for you则说明了作者想在下文中谈的内容，由此可知答案选A项。其他几个选项，则是文中的细节部分。2Why did the author say he was in misery?ABecause he couldnt enjoy his meal.BBecause he fell into conflict with his companion.CBecause his companion talked a lot.DBecause he was then disappointed in love.答案：D细节理解题。作者谈到自己坐在那里痛苦的样子，后面提到了痛苦的原因是“I was recovering from a broken heart(刚刚失恋了).”，由此可知答案D项正确。3What do you think of the man paying for the meal?AHe showed his kindness for his former girlfriend.BHe is an acquaintance to the two persons.CHe is generous and warmhearted to others.DHe enjoys making fun of others by doing that.答案：C推理判断题。文中讲述的是陌生人的帮助，由此排除A、B两项；作者只谈了这位陌生人帮他们付了账单，并没有说陌生人如何捉弄他们，因此排除D项；帮助不认识的人付账单，说明了这位陌生人的慷慨和热心，由此可知C项正确。4How did the teenager help the author?AHe gave the author a glass of water.BHe gave the author orders firmly.CHe ran after the author.DHe ran with the author.答案：D推理判断题。根据第四段的“And he ran with me until I picked up my pace.”可知，这位年轻人陪着作者跑了一段时间，直到作者加快了脚步，由此可知D项符合文意。5What can we infer from the last paragraph?AThe author still believes his experience today.BThe author feels grateful for the help he received.CThe author thinks everyone is an angel.DThe author often gets help expectedly.答案：B推理判断题。根据文章前面的叙述可知，作者对别人给予的帮助充满感激，认为帮助过他的两位都是天使级人物，所以选B项。阅读理解。 In the fall of 1985. I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell. My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college an the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait. Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopt and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic-and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy. You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 81. Our home was a complete zoo-a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant talking as few as one class each semester. The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, But I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree！I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when youre looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when youre in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want wont arrive in your life on one day. Its a process. Remember；little steps add up to big dreams.( ) 1.

The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same tome.In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起）the If All of Seattle Read the Same Book project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.In Chicago, the mayor(市长）appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the One Book, One Chicago program. As a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character. The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy And passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.Ultinatel was Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process. or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.( ) 1. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A. To invite authors to guide readers.B. To encourage people to read and share.C. To involve people in community service.D. To promote the friendship between cities.( ) 2.Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?A. They had little interest in reading.B. They were too busy to read a book.C. They came from many different backgroundsD. They lacked support from the local government( ) 3. According to the passage, where wou
