Ⅲ. 閱讀理解

Last weekend,Emma Zeiger,10, rode her bike ten miles in the pouring rain at the first annual Newton?Needham Pan?assachusetts Challenge(PC)ids Ride. Nothing, not even bad weather, could stop her from making a difference.
This June, Emma and thousands of other kids across the Northeast participated in nearly 30 PC ids Rides. PC ids Rides raise money for the Dana?Farber Cancer Institute through the Jimmy Fund. Created ten years ago by Ryan Wilkinson,17, and his sister Hattie, 15, the rides are a more kid?friendly version of the annual Pan?assachusetts Challenge.
The Wilkinson family first got the idea to create a PC ids Ride in 1998 when Ryan, then 7, wanted to ride in the Pan?assachusetts Challenge.
Ryan and Hattie’s grandmother had been diagnosed with a brain tumor(腫瘤). “We were experiencing cancer for the first time,”Ryan said, “So that was on my mind when I said I wanted to ride. ”Unfortunately, PC participants have to be at least 15 years old to ride. Ryan was only seven. So, the Wilkinson family decided to start a children’s version of the PC.
In just a couple of weeks, the Wilkinsons organized the Wildwood Challenge, the very first Pan?assachusetts Challenge ids Ride. Thirteen kids rode around a neighborhood block 25 times. They raised $1,600 for cancer research. On June 21, Ryan and Hattie will celebrate the eleventh annual Wildwood PC ids Ride.
Since 1998, PC ids Rides have grown significantly. Every year, more and more kids participate. To raise money, kids do extra chores, babysit,host car washes, and send out letters asking for donations. “Every penny counts,”Hattie Wilkinson explains. “All of the money goes to a good cause. It’s really great to be able to ride for people with cancer and to represent them and raise money for them. ”Since 1998, the Pan?assachusetts ids Rides have raised more than $1 million for cancer research and treatment.
【解題導(dǎo)語】 孩子們用自己的行動幫助那些患有癌癥的人。
1. Why did Emma ride her bike ten miles in the pouring rain?
A. She did that for her grandmother.
B. She did that for the sake of her health.
C. She did that for people with cancer.
D. She was asked to do so by her parents.
解析:選C。細節(jié)理解題。由第一段的Nothing. . . could stop her from making a difference 以及第二段的PC ids Rides raise money for the Dana?Farber Cancer Institute可知,Emma 在大雨中騎自行車是為了幫助那些患有癌癥的人。
2. When Ryan Wilkinson started PC ids Rides,he was only ________.
A. seventeen years old B. fifteen years old
C. five years old D. seven years old
解析:選D。細節(jié)理解題。第二段談到PC ids Rides是由Ryan Wilkinson在10年前創(chuàng)立的,他現(xiàn)在17歲,故他創(chuàng)立PC ids Rides的時候,只有7歲。
3. The idea of creating a PC ids Ride was inspired by ________.
A. Ryan’s sister Hattie
B. kids who suffer from cancer
C. the person who is responsible for PC
D. Ryan’s grandmother’s diagnosis of cancer
解析:選D。細節(jié)理解題。由第三段和第四段可知,Ryan的祖母被診斷出癌癥,Ryan想?yún)⒓覲C,然而,要參加PC,年齡需在15歲以上,而當(dāng)時Ryan只有七歲,所以Ryan萌發(fā)了創(chuàng)立兒童版PC的想法。
4. We can learn from the passage that ________.
A. the first PC ids Ride was held in 1999
B. besides riding the bike, kids do other things to raise money
C. PC ids Rides have raised more than $ 1 billion so far

(2009年福建檢測)“You’re going to the United States to live? Hoonderful ! You’re really lucky!”
Does this sound familiar? Perhaps your family and friends said similar things to you when you left home. But does it seem true all the time? Is your life in this new country always wonderful and exciting? A great many facts show that it’s not easy for newcomers to adjust to life in a new culture. They have to experience culture shock.
What causes culture shock? aybe the weather is unpleasant. Perhaps the customs are different. Perhaps the public service systems such as the telephone,post office, or transportation are difficult to figure out and you make mistakes. The simplest things seem difficult. The language may be difficult. The food may seem strange to you. If you don’t look similar to the natives, you may feel strange. You may feel as if everyone is watching you. In fact, you_are_always_watching_yourself.
Everyone experiences culture shock in some form or another. But culture shock comes as a surprise to most people. A lot of the time, the people with the worst culture shock are the people who never had any difficulties in their own countries. They were active and successful in their community (社區(qū)). They had hobbies or pastimes which they enjoyed. When they come to a new country, they do not have the same positions or hobbies as they already had in their countries. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity. They have to build a new self?image.
Culture shock produces a feeling of disorientation (暈頭轉(zhuǎn)向), which may be homesickness, imagined illness, or even paranoia (妄想癥). When people feel the disorientation of culture shock, they sometimes feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the unfamiliar environment. They want to create an escape within their room to give themselves a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to familiarize the person more with the culture. Familiarity and experience are the long?term ways to settle the problem of culture shock.
【解題導(dǎo)語】 在人們看,移居海外是非常幸運的事情,然而由于氣候、風(fēng)俗、語言等方面的差異而造成的“culture shock”是令人頭痛的事情,向我們介紹了新移民們應(yīng)該如何適應(yīng)這些差異。
5. Who is the passage mainly for?
A. The family and friends of those who came to the US.
B. Those who have got rid of culture shock.
C. People who have just moved to a foreign country.
D. People who can easily adjust to their life in the US.
解析:選C?v觀全可以看出,向我們介紹了到異國他鄉(xiāng),應(yīng)如何克服“culture shock”,適應(yīng)新環(huán)境的問題,也就是說是寫給那些剛移居國外的人的。
6. The underlined part“you are always watching yourself”(in Paragraph 3)means ________.
A. you are always feeling homesick
B. you are always worried too much about yourself
C. you are always looking at yourself in the mirror
D. you are always nervous about meeting other people
解析:選B。由上一句“You may feel as if everyone is watching you. ”可以看出這種感覺是因為對自己過度擔(dān)心而造成的。
7. Which of the following would be a case of culture shock for newcomers?
A. They have trouble using public telephones.
B. Their positions or hobbies stay the same.
C. They are active and successful in the new community.
D. They have got used to the life in the new country.
解析:選A。細節(jié)判斷題。由第三段中的“Perhaps the public service systems such as the telephone. . . ”可得出答案。
8. Which of the following may cause newcomers to lack a sense of security?
A. A new identity.
B. Local food.
C. A new self?image.
D. Strange environment.
解析:選D。細節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第一段中的“They want to protect themselves from the unfamiliar environment. They want to create an escape within their room to give themselves a sense of security. ”可知答案。
9. The best way for the newcomers to overcome culture shock is ________.
A. to stay inside to protect themselves
B. to make a study of new hobbies
C. to adapt themselves to the new environment
D. to ask people for help when having difficulties
解析:選C。推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段中的“They have to build a new self?image”及的最后一句話可以推出戰(zhàn)勝“culture shock”的最好的辦法就是:適應(yīng)新環(huán)境,創(chuàng)造一個新的自我形象
