黑龙江鸡西市龙东南四校高二上期末英语试卷

Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.
“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.
“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers said excitedly.
The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and all kinds of other insects. He removed the lid and showed the wonderful contents to the scoffing(嘲笑)visitors. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!”
Their goal was far too ambitious(有野心的), but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for — to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen; in other words, to set us to digging!
But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will endure(长久持续). Not every dream will be realized. But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!”
It is in the digging that life is lived. And I believe it is joy in the journey, in the end, that truly matters.
Which of the following is NOT the reason why the older boys laughed at the two brothers?

A.The two brothers only dug out a lot of insects
B.The two brothers lacked knowledge of the earth.
C.The two brothers were foolish.
D.The two brothers had a far too ambitious goal.

What does the underlined part “when you fall short of your aim” probably mean?

A.When you are shorter than you expected
B.When you have less than the amount than you wanted
C.When you fail to obtain(得到)what you expected
D.When you miss the target you are aiming at

The passage is written to _____.

A.tell readers a story
B.teach readers how to set a goal
C.praise the two brothers
D.teach readers a lesson

Which would be the best title for the passage?

A.Dig a Hole Through the Earth
B.Joy in the Journey
C.Realize Your Goal
D.Don’t Laugh at Others

A group of graduates, successful in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
Before offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups—porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking and cheap, some exquisite and expensive—telling them to help themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: “If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. Be assured(确信的)that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups… And then you began eyeing each other’s cups.
Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided for us.”
God brews(泡,沏)the coffee, not the cups. Enjoy your coffee!
"The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything. "
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.
What did the conversation turn into?

A.complaints B.study
C.discussion D.chat

Why did the professor offer his students coffee with varieties of cups?

A.To give his students many more choices.
B.To teach his students how to enjoy coffee.
C.To show the students his collection of cups.
D.To tell his students the right attitude to life.

According to the professor, the happiest people are the ones who _____.

A.get the best type of coffee cups
B.make the best of what they have
C.have a wide range of coffee cups
D.care about social status and wealth

The best title for the passage would be _____.

A.God's Coffee
B.The Pressure of Life
C.The Happiest People
D.Professor's Coffee Cups
