2019-2020年高二英語話題閱讀訓練 Week Three情感世界一、閱讀理解（共14小題；共28.0分）A You say you want to turn an acquaintanceship into something more, but Im not sure if that means youre willing to accept him in the hallway and create many babies immediately, or if you want to bee better friends before you move on to the dating part. If its the latter, try to hang out with him in a group setting; having other people there should reduce the awkwardness among the group, so the two of you arent just constantly walking into each other and apologizing and falling down the stairs. If youre fortable with dating him right now, and you just dont know where to begin, the most important thing is going forward with the caution of a turtle. Do not just stomp up to him and ask him out. To a terribly awkward guy, unexpectedly asking him if he wants to go out in person, is exactly like kicking down his bedroom door and shouting "Nice underpants, idiot", in that he will just scream and hide from you, even if he does want to go out, and they are nice underpants. To avoid this kind of pressure, Id suggest being cutesy(討人喜愛的) or flirty with him in person, to lay the groundwork, and then actually asking him out via text or online. Of course, his response will probably be "gbnml", because he will have passed out onto his keyboard in disbelief, but its still better than the alternative. If you cant text him or do this online, leave him a note or something; any approach that means he doesnt have to deliver his answer to the actual face of an alive human girl. 1. What do the underlined words "the latter" refer to in Para 1? A. Making friends with someone. B. Producing some babies. C. Making better friends before dating. D. Starting a family before dating. 2. What should you do to avoid the awkwardness when you meet someone? A. Constantly walk. B. Fall down the stairs. C. Apologize to each other. D. Be with him in a group setting. 3.

If you send him a message, he may not believe you then. B. Its better to leave him a note with your text from your mobile phone. C. He should give his answer to a girl directly and clearly. D. To avoid awkwardness, youd better not ask for his answer face to face. 5. Who is this passage intended for? A. A married woman.B. A married man. C. An unmarried girl.D.

She is a child of the King, made in His image. By encouraging her spirit, you can help stoke the flames of her inner beauty, helping her to shine; but by damaging or ignoring her spirit, you can ensure it will burn slowly and without a flame, go cold, and die out. Will you be a fire-raiser? The essential key to building a great relationship with your daughter is this: encourage her spirit, and never ever squeeze it. Your daughter needs her dad to fan the flames of her heart. She does not need you to be the over-controlling dad who makes her feel like shes walking on eggshells all the time. Did you like it when your parents were overly controlling? Yet your daughter also doesnt need a dad who has checked out of her lifea deadbeat dad. Your daughter needs you. She needs you to invest everything you have into her, build a relationship with her, and electrify her spirit so that she can explode with lifeboth now and in the future. She needs you to be careful to never kill, damage, or harm her inner spirit; instead, she needs you to encourage her to grow into the person she should bee. For your daughters sake, you must try. If you want to kill your daughters passion for life, bee an authoritarian, ruledispensing dictator(獨裁者). Be strict and reduce her spirit. If you want to damage your daughters spirit, engage in inappropriate and abusive sexual behavior. You will wound her forever. If you want to dim the light within her, neglect her and make her work hard for your attention. Shell bee good at pleasing people. 6.

Build a Great Relationship with Your DaughterC President Obama was crying. Not choked up, not somewhat emotional. He was crying. It was a startling sightafter years of watching the man known for his coolness under pressure, for his analytic detachmentto see him suddenly wearing his heart on his rolled up sleeve. What happened? What made the president"No Drama Obama," "President Spock"suddenly crack? It happened Wednesday, the day after he won re-election, when he stood before the staff at his Chicago campaign headquarters to thank them for the work that helped make his victory possible. "What you guys have done," he said, "means that the work that Im doing is important." His right index finger quickly wiped away tears as they streamed down his cheek. Perhaps Obama felt emotionally overpowered by what awaits him even before he finishes his first term. The country is careering toward the "fiscal cliff," which really is the wrong term. Its more a fiscal suicide (fiscacide?) if the government irresponsibly pushes the country into a self-inflicted recession, plete with a renewed rise in unemployment. Without an agreement with Republicans, Americans, including Obama supporters weeping with him in that room, will face higher taxes and across-the-board spending cuts. Maybe Obama was crying tears of joy. Maybe he was crying because of what winning re-election means. Perhaps it was the knowledge that he will have another four years to pursue his agenda; or his new hope that this time around, theres a chance, however faint, that Republicans and Democrats will find a way to work together. That would bring the entire country to tears. Obamas re-election(Nov 8th, xx) allows him to show his human side with less trepidation(憂慮). Decades of self-control wont fade away. But the president has shown himself and the majority of voters said they liked what they saw. Obama II will remain cool, but he will allow himself to bee less emotionally detached(超然的). After all, even Mr. Spock cried sometimes.11. What may be the best title of this passage? A. Why Was Obama Crying? B. Why Was Obama Re-elected? C. What Made Obama the President elected? D. What Helped Obama Succeed in Being Re-election.12. When did Obama cry before his staff? A. On Nov 7th, xx.B. On Nov 8th, xx. C. On Nov 9th, xx.D. On Nov 10th, xx.13. What can we infer from the passage? A. Obama II has helped President Obama much to win re-election. B. Mr. Spock cried sometimes and influenced President Obama deeply. C. The staff at Obamas Chicago campaign headquarters contributed much to President Obama. D. "No Drama Obama" was one of President Obamas relatives.14. What CANT be the reason that caused President Obama cry according to the author? A. The financial crisis in the USA may be too serious for President Obama to face. B. Republicans will oppose Obamas leadership and the policies of taxes and across-the-board spending cuts. C. He is quite sure what winning re-election means that he will have another four years to pursue his agenda D. He hopes he can create a chance that Republicans and Democrats will find a way to work together.二、完形填空（共20小題；共30.0分） The only person who can change what you feel is you.

I found out on the website that there was a huge rescue effort still going on down here and that volunteers were desperately needed. I was able to get a good friend to sponsor my trip here and had the opportunity to e up for a couple of weeks through the Christmas season. When I first got here we were just moving into the new building. The first half of my stay I was mainly helping to set this place up, help build a lot of the dog runs and just help out with whatever else was needed. The second week I started to be able to get out more and started filling up feeding stations in St Bernard Parish and the 9th ward. One day we were out trying to scope out an extremely pregnant dog that was reported to be out in St. Bernard Parish, which will soon have parts of it demolished so getting as many animals out of there as possible was definitely a priority. When we arrived at the location we did see a female dog that clearly had already given birth to her pups. I tried to befriend her as much as possible, tossing her treats and slowly trying to build her trust. She wasnt going far, so that indicated her pups were nearby. Once we built somewhat of a rapport with her, we started to search for the puppies. Almost giving up, we arrived at a house that seemed like it could be a possibility. I got on my hands and knees trying to make out what was going on under the house, staying as quiet as possible. All of a sudden, I heard the faintest sound of a puppy s whimper. After honing in on it a little bit more, there was clearly a litter under the house. After getting a little more help, we were able to get the puppies from under the house with success and we found out they werent even a week old. This experience was so unbelievable, one I know Ill never forget.35. From the passage we can know Reed got the news from A. the TV programB. a newspaper C. the InternetD. his friends36.
