[2014·北京朝阳区第一次综合练习]

Johnny the Explorer

Johnny was three when he ran away from home for the first time. Somebody left the garden gate open. Johnny wandered out，crossed some fields and，two hours later，arrived in the next village. He was just able to give his name and address.

By the time he was seven，Johnny used to P1 disappear W1 from home two to three times a year. Sometimes he co v ered W2 quite long distances on foot. Sometimes he got on a bus or even a train，and simply sat there until someone asked for his ticket. Generally the police brought him home. “Why do you do it？” they used to ask. “I just like seeing places，”Johnny told them.

Johnny continued to “see places” although everyone tried to stop him. His parents used to w atch him closely，and so did his teachers；but sooner or later P2 Johnny managed to slip a w ay.S1 As he grew older，his favorite trick was to hide on a long distance truck. Sometimes he travelled hundreds of miles before anyone discovered him.

It is hardly surprising that e v entually W3 Johnny managed to board a plane.S2 He was twelve at the time. It was a cargo plane and a few hours later，Johnny found himself in Cairo. How did he get on board? No one knows! According to Johnny himself，it was easy：he just went into the airport，walked along some passages and got on board the nearest plane.

In spite of P3 all this，Johnny did well at school. He enjoyed mathematics and languages and，perhaps not surprisingly，he was especially good at geography. “What do you want to be when you grow up？” his teachers asked him. “An explorer！” he answered. “But it's difficult to become an explorer in this modern age，”they tried to tell him. But it was no use：Johnny knew what he wanted!

Just before he left school，Johnny saw a notice in a daily paper. A long journey was about to go to Brazil to travel up the Amazon River. There were jobs for three young people “willing to work hard and with a sense of adventure”. Johnny applied，and two months later，he was on his w ay to P4 Brazil.

1. Johnny frequently left home because ________.

A. he preferred to stay alone

B. he enjoyed seeing new places

C. he couldn't do well at school

D. he didn't get along well with his parents

2. People around Johnny ________.

A. tried to stop him from slipping away

B. kept following him to get him back

C. booked tickets for him if necessary

D. were clear about how he travelled abroad

3. From the passage，we can learn that ________.

A. Johnny worked for a daily paper

B. Johnny lacked a sense of adventure

C. Johnny went exploring along the Amazon River

D. Johnny went to Brazil two months after he finished school

文章介绍Johnny从小就喜欢探险，因为他喜欢看新的地方，虽然父母和老师都阻止他这么做，但是他去的地方越来越远，最近决定去亚马逊探险。

1. B细节题。从文章第二段的句子：“Why do you do it？” they used to ask. “I just like seeing places，” Johnny told them. 可知Johnny经常离开家，因为他喜欢看新的地方，选B。

2. A细节题。从文章第三段的句子：Johnny continued to “see places” although everyone tried to stop him.His parents used to watch him closely，and so did his teachers；but sooner or later Johnny managed to slip away.可知Johnny周围的人想阻止他溜走，选A。

3. C细节题。从文章最后一段的句子：A long journey was about to go to Brazil to travel up the Amazon River.There were jobs for three young people “willing to work hard and with a sense of adventure”．Johnny applied，and two months later，he was on his way to Brazil.可知Johnny 去亚马逊河探险的。选C。

(完整word版)高中英语选修六课文原文

高中英语选修6 Unit 1 A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones. Starting from the sixth century AD. The Middle Ages(5th to the 15th century AD) During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created a feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way. The Renaissance(15th to 16th century) During the Renaissance, new ideas and values gradually replaced those held in the Middle Ages. People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess their own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements. One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the rules of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous. Impressionism(late 19h to early 20th century) In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal, from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris. The Impressionists were the first painters to work outdoors. They were eager to show how light and shadow fell on objects at different times of day. However, because natural light changes so quickly, the Impressionists had to paint quickly. Their paintings were not as detailed as those of earlier painters. At first, many people disliked this style of painting and became very angry about it. They said that the painters were careless and their paintings were ridiculous. Modern Art(29th century to today) At the time they were created, the Impressionist paintings were controversial, but today they are accepted as the beginning of what we call "modern art". This is because the

Accompanying her husband on his first overseas trip after becoming president, Peng Liyuan showed a pleasant personality and well-chosen dress, creating the “Liyuan style”. Peng Liyuan, as one of China’s best-known singers, was popular among Chinese people long before her husband became the president. Loved by her fans, she has been in touch with the people for years. “Liyuan style” first lies in her dressing style. The beautiful handbags Peng has carried, and the plain but elegant dresses she has worn have become popular. Her choice of clothing, made-in-China instead of luxurious foreign brands, shows her belief in domestic dress designs. But “Liyuan style” is not only about clothing. It is also about diplomacy and promoting China’s soft power. In Moscow, Peng visited a boarding school for orphans and children away from their parents, encouraging them to struggle for a better life, which brought out the maternal side of her character. In Tanzania, she donated sewing machines and school bags to women and children. And as a World Health Organization ambassador in the fight against AIDS, Peng is devoted to many public causes, including those relating to charity and healthcare. 1.
