I was looking forward to a quiet view (观察) of the art works.A young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted non-stop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired the husbands patience for putting up with her continuous talk. Distracted by their noise, I moved on.I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant burst of words, I moved away quickly.I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop making a purchase when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wifes jacket.“Hes a brave man.” The clerk at the counter said, “Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery he made a promise that his life wouldnt change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever theres a new art show.”“But what does he get out of the art?” I asked, “He cant see.”“Cant see? Youre wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do.” The clerk said, “His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填涂在答题卡的相应位置。（1）The young couple were at an art museum _.A . to show their loveB . to appreciate artC . to discuss paintingsD . to describe paintings（2）“I moved away quickly.” in Paragraph 3 shows that the writer _.A . was in the hope of visiting more roomsB . was in a hurry to buy some giftsC . was tired of the non-stop talkingD . was not interested in the art show（3）We can infer (推断) from the passage that the husband _.A . was not born blindB . couldnt stand his wifeC . knew nothing about artD . completely depended on his wife（4）After hearing what the clerk had said about the couple, the writer was _.A . encouragedB . excitedC . touchedD . annoyed（5）The passage is mainly about _.A . the importance of artB . good manners in publicC . patience of a husbandD . love between a couple23. （10分）阅读理解 Japanese students work very hard, but many are unhappy. They feel heavy pressure from their parents to do well in school. Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have a wonderful life. Though this may be a good idea for those very smart students, it can have terrible results for many students because they are not talented enough.As it is reported, a number of students killed themselves. Others try to get the feelings of taking drugs(毒品). Some join the groups of troublemakers and turn to crime(犯罪). Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hopes. Such students felt that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they dont want to go to school any longer.It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any ways .Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and it is the teachers work to help their children. To make matter worse, a lot of parents send their children to those school opening in the evenings and on weekends they only help students to pass exams and never teach students any real sense of the world. It is a great surprise that almost three quarters of middle school students have been to such kind of schools.

Child psychologists (儿童心理学家)now think that such strict rules are harmful (有害的)to the feelings of the students.

But it seems that besides wearing a mask, few of us know what has caused the smog and what to do to beat it. Chai Jing, a former news hostess with China Central Television, discussed the questions in her documentary Under the Dome.The 103 - minute film was published on major Chinese video - sharing websites on Feb 28. In the film, Chai visits polluted places and talks to officials and scientists. She comes to the conclusion that burning too much coal and oil are the main causes of PM2.5 and smog.To make things worse, according to Chai, the coal and oil we are burning is of poor quality and dont meet the standards for environmental protection. Therefore they have produced more harmful gas to pollute the air.To solve the problem, Chai suggests that we should clean our coal and oil or replace them with cleaner energy such as natural gas. In her film, Chai also pointed out that ordinary people can do something to help control smog too. For example, we live a greener life by using more public traffic. Or if we see things that could harm the environment, we can try to stop it. In one scene from the film, Chai sees a dirt mound in a building site exposed in the air, and asks the person in charge to cover it. When she sees a restaurant cooking without any suitable filter facilities, she calls the hotline 12369. The restaurant installed the filter a week later.Chen Jining, the new minister of environmental protection, praised Chai. This film encourages ordinary people to care about the environment. This is what we need in the future. （1）What do most of people do to deal with the smog? A . Wear a mask.B . Think of ways to beat it.C . Find out what has caused it.D .

He asked if I would give him some money so he could get something to eat. Id read the signs: “Dont give money to panhandlers (乞丐）.” So I shook my head and kept walking.I wasnt prepared for a reply, but he said, “I really am homeless and I really am hungry! You can come with me and watch me eat!” But I kept on walking.I couldnt forget what happened to me that day for the rest of the week. I had money in my pocket and it wouldnt have killed me to hand over a dollar or two even if he had been lying. On a very cold night, no less, I thought the worst of a fellow human being. Flying back to Anchorage, I still couldnt help thinking of him.I was the writer of a weekly garden column (专栏）at The Anchorage Daily News. One day, out of the blue, I came up with an idea. Beans Cafe, the soup kitchen in Anchorage, feeds hundreds of hungry people every day. Why not try to get all my readers to plant one row in their gardens for Beans? Plant a row and take it down to Beans. Clean and simple.We didnt keep records back then, but the idea began to take off. People would call me when they took something in. Those who only grew flowers gave them away. Food for the spirit.In 1995 , the Garden Writers Association of America ( GWAA) held their meeting in Anchorage and alter learning of Anchorages program, Plant a Row for Beans became Plant a Row for the Hungry. The idea was to have every member of the Garden Writers Association of America write or talk about planting a row for the hungry.As more and more people started working with the program, many companies gave free seed to customers and had the logo (商标）seen in public.Garden editor Joan Jackson raised more than 30,000 pounds of fruits and vegetables her first year, and showed the public how the program could really work. Texas fruit farms gave away food to their local food bank alter hearing about Plant a Row. Today the program continues to grow.I am shocked that millions of Americans are threatened by hunger. If every gardener inAmerica - and were seventy million strong - plants one row for the hungry, we can make a difference in the number of neighbors who dont have enough to eat. Maybe then I will stop feeling
