Not very long ago, a special family system(體系) existed in certain parts of South India. In the system, the actual head of a family unit was the mother’s eldest brother, though the mother also had an important position in the family. In families of this kind, a husband was actually no more than a visitor. He did not live with his wife, but with his own mother, brothers and sisters in another house. He saw his sons and daughters sometimes, but the man who actually fed and cared for them and acted as their father was their uncle--- their mother’s brother.
But this system, in which brothers and sisters take the place of the father, no longer exists in South India except in a few villages. Economic(經(jīng)濟(jì)的) changes have had far- reaching effect on family life. Family life began to change when men went out to work in factories and offices instead of working with their mothers, brothers, and sisters on the land. When a man went out to work, he had money of his own and could buy his own land and build his own family, instead of depending on his mother and his brothers. He wanted to be independent(獨(dú)立的). This is an example of the way in which economic relations can have an effect on family relationships.
【小題1】 The best title of this passage is ______.

A．Husband Actually Visitor in Family
B．Family System in South India
C．Wife Has Important Position in Family
D．Economic Relations Affects Family Relationships
【小題2】 Who had the actual control of a family in South India not long ago?

A．no familiesB．many more families
C．very few familiesD．not any families

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：江蘇省2010屆高三下學(xué)期第二次模擬考試試題（英語(yǔ)）附解析 題型：閱讀理解

I remember my math teacher Mr. Young very well. He stood out because the kids made fun d him. He was missing one of his fingers, and always pointed at students with his middle finger.

I was not very good at English and math. No matter how hard I tried, I just could not figure out why I did not understand what all the other kids found so easy to learn.

One day, I was told that if I got one more E on my report card, I would be taken to the “big person for kids”

I tried really hard for weeks. I just couldn't understand how to make different parts of members into whole things.

The day before report cards were to come out, 1 knew that Mr. Young would give me an E, just like he always did.

I went to Mr. Young and told him that the orphanage (孤兒院) was going to send me to the big person if I got another E on my report card. He told me there was nothing he could do; it would be unfair to the other kids if he gave me a better grade than I had actually earned.

I smiled at him and said, "Mr. Young, do you know how the kids make fun of you because you’re missing your finger?" He looked at me, moved his mouth to one side and said nothing.

“They shouldn’t do that to you because you can't help having a finger, Mr. Young. Just like I can’t help not being able to learn numbers and stuff like that.” I said

The next day, when I got my report card, I tucked it into one of my books. While on the school bus, I opened it: Geography, B+; Mechanical Drawing, C-; English, D-l; History, C-; Gym, B+; Art, C; Math, D-.

That math grade was the most favorite one I ever received. Because I knew that someone in the world finally understood what it was like for me to be missing a finger inside my head.

59. From the second paragraph we can infer that the boy is _________ in some subjects.

A. mind-blowing (給人印象極深的 )         B. slow-witted (頭腦遲鈍的)

C. fun-loving                              D. badly- behaved

60. Where may the boy live according to the passage?

A. In an orphanage.    B. In a big prison.   C. In the school dormitory.      D. In his home.

61. What grade should the boy have got in the math test this time?

A. D-.                  B. B +               C. D.                     D. E.

62. The underlined word "tucked" in the passage most probably means “________”.

A. stuck             B. listed               C. hid                   D. copied

63. The reason why the boy remembers Mr. Young is that ________.

A. he missed one of his fingers               B. he treated his students very well
