Long time ago, there was a seed. Because he was only a seed,   36   cared to notice him. Thus, feeling useless, the seed thought he was not important at all.

     Then one day, a   37  picked him up and threw him on an open field under the sun. He was   38 , thinking, "Why would a wind do such a thing?" But   39  any pleasant answers, he was   40   with sunlight as well as   41  , sometimes light and sometimes heavy.

 Time flew by and years later, he saw a  42  sitting by his side. "Thank God for this. I really need some   43 ",he heard the traveler say.

  "What are you   44  ?"The seed asked. He thought the man was   45  him. Surely he had seen many people sitting by his side,  46  no one ever spoke to him like that.

  "Who is this?" The man was   47

  "This is me, the seed. "

  "The seed?" The man looked at the big   48   "Are you kidding me? You are not a seed. You are a tree. A big tree !

   "   49  ?"

   "Yes! Why else do you think people   50  here?"

   "What do they come here for?"

   "To   51 your shade! Don't tell me you didn't know you had   52 over time. "

    A moment passed, and the traveler's words made him think a lot.

    The seed, now a big tree, thought and  53  for the first time in his life. The years of suffering from the sun and the rain were useful to him at last.

   "Oh! That means I'm not a(n)   54  seed anymore! Wow! I'm a big tree now. That's the   55  that I really want !"

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2012屆山東省臨清三中高三上學(xué)期期末沖刺英語(yǔ)試卷 題型:閱讀理解

For the last couple of weeks , I had been stuck in front of my computer working on a project that was very important to me . My every waking hour was consumed by the project and although I imagined that I would feel happy after completing parts of the project, I was confused to find that instead , I was feeling rather depressed . I tried a range of methods to help cheer myself up. I had a relaxing bath, cooked a delicious meal to enjoy with my family and even watched a lighthearted movie,but to no avail. It was only when I turned to meditation(沉思) for a solution that the answer came to me : turn to nature!
The very next day , I grabbed my camera and a bottle of water and set off to spend a few hours walking in a nature reserve , even though it was pouring with rain . Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again.To be honest . I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping along the path singing , “I’m singing in the rain.”a song I used to sing when I was a child . I think as adults we often try too hard to control our inner children and as a result we restrain(限制)our own spirits , which only leads to depression and stress.
Interestingly,it has been shown that people who spend 40 minutes walking  in a nature reserve have a drop in their blood pressure levels. But this does not happen when they spend a similar amount of time walking in a busy city centre .
If you feel a little low in spirit and know that you have spent too much time indoors , relax completely , remove your shoes and let your inner child come out and play.
【小題1】The author felt depressed because she         .

A.couldn’t consume her waking hour
B.had not seen a film for a long time.
C.had not finished her work on time
D.had worked on a hard job for too long
【小題2】The author walked in a nature reserve in the rain in order to      .
A.take photosB.find a solution to the project
C.hop along the pathD.cheer herself up
【小題3】The underlined part“to no avail” in Paragraph 1 probably means“          ”.
A.unsuccessfulB.unrelatedC.uninterestingD.unexpected
【小題4】In the author’s opinion,     .
A.a(chǎn) bath can make people relaxed
B.depression is usually caused by hard work
C.walking in a busy city centre harms people’s health
D.a(chǎn)dults should express their inner feelings freely
【小題5】The last paragraph mainly serves as a(n)      .
A.explanationB.suggestionC.introductionD.reminder

B
We each have a memory. That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories.
A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.
But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.
