【甘肃省嘉峪关市一中模拟】A

Zoe Chambers was a succeful PR(Public Relations)consultant and life was going well-she had a great job, a beautiful flat and a busy social life in London.Then one evening in June last year, she received a text meage telling her she was out of work.“The first two weeks were the most difficult to live through,” she said.“After everything I’d done for the company, they dismied me by text!I was so angry and I just didn’t feel like looking for another job.I hated everything about the city and my life.”

Then, Zoe received an invitation from an old schoolfriend, Kathy, to come and stay.Kathy and her husband, Huw, had just bought a farm in northwest Wales.Zoe jumped at the chance to spend a weekend away from London, and now, ten months later, she is still on the farm.“The moment I arrived at Kathy’s farm, I loved it and I knew I wanted to stay,” said Zoe.“Everything about my past life suddenly seemed meaningle.”

Zoe has been working on the farm since October of last year and says she has no regrets.“It’s a hard life, physically very tiring,” she says.“In London I was streed and often mentally exhausted.But this is a good, healthy tiredne.Here, all I need to put me in a good mood is a hot bath and one of Kathy’s wonderful dinners.” Zoe says she has never felt bored on the farm.Every day brings a new experience.Kathy has been teaching her how to ride a horse and she has learnt to drive a tractor.Since Christmas, she has been helping with the lambing-watching a lamb being born is unbelievable, she says, “It’s one of the most moving experiences I’ve ever had.I could never go back to city life now.”

56.The most important reason why Zoe went to visit Kathy’s farm is that.A.Zoe lost her job as a PR consultant

阅读下列材料，按要求完成读写任务

Like many of my generation，I have a weakne for hero worship.At some point，however，we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them.This leads us to ask：What is a hero?

Despite immense differences in cultures，heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people.A hero does something worth talking about.A hero has a story of adventure to tell and a community who will listen.But a hero goes beyond mere fame.Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves.Like high­voltage(电压)transformers，heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.The hero lives a life worthy of imitation.Those who imitate a genuine hero experience life with new depth，enthusiasm，and meaning.A sure test for would­be heroes is what or whom do they serve? What are they willing to live and die for? If the answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame，they may be famous persons but not heroes.Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous，but who would claim that their fans find life more abundant?

Heroes are catalysts(催化剂)for change.They have a vision from the mountain top.They have the skill and the charm to move the maes.They create new poibilities.Without Gandhi，India might still be part of the British Empire.Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King，Jr.，we might still have segregated(隔离的)buses，restaurants，and parks.It may be poible for large­scale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities，but the pace of change would be slow，the vision uncertain，and the committee meetings endle.Ⅰ.根据短文，写一篇30词左右的摘要

故事类---[2012·广东卷]

C

I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known.I refused to use a white

stick and hated asking for help.After all, I was a teenage girl, and I couldn't bear people to look at me and think I was not like them.I must have been a terrible danger on the roads.Coming acro me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes.Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something.“I’m awfully sorry，”I said and stepped forward only to run into it again.When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost.This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me.So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn't stop unle paengers wanted to get on or off.No one else was there and I had to try to gue if the bus had arrived.Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to gue at the sound.Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away.In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop;it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus.Of course I heard plenty of buses pa, or I thought I did.But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by.I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one.Then I gaveup.I decided to walk on to the next stop.36.Thegirl refused to ask for help because she thought ________.A．she might be recognized

【要点综述】这是一篇记叙文。表达盲人的生活观。文章记叙了作者身为盲人，而不愿意让别人知道，还不愿意向别人求助的事情。通过作者等公共汽车的事情使她体会到了有的时候还是需要别人的帮助的。

36.D 细节理解题。由本文第一句(I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known.)可知。

37.C 细节理解题。由第二段前三句，特别是第三句(When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost.)可知。

38.C 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知，作者害怕拦不到车使自己难堪，所以放弃拦车。故选C。

39.B 推理判断题。根据第三段I tried to gue at the sound.Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away.和第四段的But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by.看出根据声音来判断车辆是不可靠的。故选B。

40.A 推理判断题。从I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself可知，她本人不想拦车了，又由managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help可知，她是决定找人帮忙了，而在本站没有人，去下一站当然就是希望在那里可以找到人帮忙。
