My elder brother Steve, in the absence of my father who died when I was six, gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult.

    For instance, Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took the time to ask me what happened. When I explained that my baseball had soared through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to confess to her. After all, I should have been playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path between buildings. Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window from my pocket money if she would return my ball.

    I also learned from Steve that personal property is a sacred thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else in spite of the fact that it had little value. He reminded me of how much I’d hate to lose to someone else the small dog my father carved from a piece of cheap wood. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids, and still remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on the shoulder.

Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve, I killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a BB gun. Excited with my accuracy, I screamed to Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “The only time you should ever think of hurting a living thing is if it hurts you first. And then you think a long, long time.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.

31. What is the main subject of the passage?

A. The relationship between Mark and Steve.

B. The important lesson Mark learned in school.

C. Steve’s important role in Mark’s growing process.

D. Mark and Steve’s respect for living things.

32. In the story about the pen, which of the following lessons did Steve teach his brother?

   A. Respect for personal property.                         B. Respect for life.

   C. Sympathy for people with problems.                D. The value of honesty.

33. According to the writer, which was the most important lesson Steve taught his young brother?

   A. Respect for living things.                  B. Responsibility for one’s actions.

   C. The value of honesty.                       D. Care for the property of others.

34. The underlined word “knocked” in the second paragraph means ______.

   A. tapped            B. beat          C. struck            D. trembled

35. From the passage, we can infer the following statements EXCEPT that ______.

   A. Mark benefited a lot from Steve after their father passed away.

   B. Mark was not as excellent as his elder brother Steve.

   C. The small wood dog carved by his father meant a lot to Mark.

   D. Mark used to be a naughty boy in his childhood.

Derrius Quarles, 19, had an unhappy childhood. But the Chicago teen didn’t give up. He tried his best and won $1 million in college scholarships (獎學金)! Now Derrius is a successful college student with a bright future.

When Derrius was 4, his father was killed. His mother couldn’t take care of him because of taking drugs. Derrius and his 9-year-old brother sometimes had to steal food to eat. Derrius felt different from other kids. In seventh grade, Derrius went to live in a foster home (寄養(yǎng)家庭). His foster parents weren’t nice to him. They told him that he’d never be anything in life.

Derrius didn’t do his best in school. The summer after ninth grade, that changed. Derrius had signed up for a biology class. He didn’t go to class the first day. On the second day, he showed up late. His teacher took him outside. She told him he was smart, but that he was wasting his potential (潛力). The talk inspired him and he planned to prove that he could be anything if he worked hard enough.

Adults at a summer program helped Derrius find out about scholarships he could earn to pay for college. In his senior year, Derrius filled out lots of applications. He told his friends, “You’re not going to see me for a long time.” Derrius’s hard work paid off. He won more than $1 million in scholarships! He has a lot to be proud of. But he’s most proud of helping others. Derrius gives speeches to teens, telling them how to find scholarships. In high school, Derrius got help buying a computer. He wanted to help others who needed them. Last year, he gave two laptops to high schoolstudents. There’s a lot of work in his future. Derrius doesn’t mind — hard work has got him where he is today.

科目:高中英語 來源:2011-2012學年湖北省高三第一次質量檢查英語題 題型:閱讀理解

Ibrahim became disabled after contracting polio (小兒麻痹癥) when he was three years old. At first his parents, like many other parents of disabled children in Niger, did not want to send him to school. They were worried he would be laughed at by his classmates.  

    Despite his disability, and his parents’ doubts, Ibrahim was determined to go to school. “When I was eight,” Ibrahim says, “other kids of my age were going to school while I stayed at home. I did not like that. So, I pestered (纏著) my parents until they finally let me go to school.”

   Ibrahim’s parents sent him to a private school nearby. Although the journey to and from school was a short one, it still wasn’t easy for Ibrahim. He had to use his hands to help him move along, protecting them with plastic slippers. But at least he was getting an education.

    However, after only a year in school, Ibrahim’s education was interrupted when his parents separated. His mother did not have the means to continue paying for his tuition.

    In 2007, Ibrahim received some money to be fitted with a leg brace (支架), corrective shoes and his first pair of crutches (拐杖). Now that he was more mobile than before, the most important thing for him was to find a way to go back to school. 

    “I wanted to start school again last October,” Ibrahim says. “After my mother told me she could not afford it, I went to visit some of my relatives for support. And I collected 5,000 francs CFA (US $8) to pay my tuition for half a year. I will find the rest of the money somehow.”

    Ibrahim attends a school in which he is the only disabled student. According to his teacher, he is among the top five students in a class of 55.

1. Why did Ibrahim’s parents prefer Ibrahim to stay at home? 

A. There was a lot of housework for him to do.  

B. They had no money to pay for his tuition.

C. There were not enough schools in the country.  

D. They were afraid the students would make fun of him.

2. How did Ibrahim go to school before his parents separated? 

A. He went to school on his wheelchair.

B. He went to school on his parents’ bicycle.   

C. He walked to school with the support of his hands.

D. He walked to school using a pair of crutches.
