第一篇

Tales of the Terrible Past

It is not the job of fiction writers to analyze and interpret history. Yet by writing about the past in a vivid and compelling manner, storytellers can bring earlier eras to life and force readers to consider them seriously. Among those taking on the task of recounting history are some black writers who attempt to examine slavery from different points of view.

Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison deals specifically with the legacy of slavery in her book Beloved. The main character in this novel, a former slave called Sethe, lives in Ohio in the years following the Civil War, but she cannot free herself from her horrific memories. Through a series of flashbacks and bitter reminiscences, the reader learns how and why Sethe escaped from the plantation she had lived on; the fate of her husband, who also tried to escape; and finally, what happened to the child called Beloved. Morrison's scenes of torture and murder are vivid and strongly convey the desperation of the slaves and the cruelty of their owners.

Charles Johnson's Middle Passage approaches slavery from a different, yet no less violent,vantage point. His main character, Rutherfprd Calhoun, is a ne'er-do-well free black American who stows away on a slave ship bound for Africa to collect its "cargo". Put to work after he is discovered,Calhoun witnesses firsthand the appalling conditions in which the captured Africans are transported.

When they finally rebel and take over the ship, he finds himself in the middle-- and is forced to come to terms with who he is and what his values are.

Neither Beloved nor Middle Passage is an easy read, but both exemplify African American writers' attempts to bring significant historical situations alive for a modem audience.

第二篇

An Unhappy Trip

It was Friday, the day of the field trip on which Miss Joan would take her class to pick apples.

Miss Joan enjoyed picking apples with her students. She smiled as she led her students to the bus that would take them to the Greenly Apple Orchard ( 果园) .

The bus ride was bumpy and the kids were a little noisy, but still Miss Joan was smiling.

The bus stopped in front of the Greenly Apple Orchard and the class got off quickly and quietly. Miss Joan made sure everyone was there. "What a glorious, sunny, apple picking day,"Miss Joan announced with her grandest smile.

Mr. Greenly was there to greet them. "Let's see, there are eighteen children and two adults at three dollars each. That will be sixty dollars, please."

Miss Joan held up the brochure in her hand. "It says that the price is two dollars each," she pointed out. "That's what I collected from everyone."

"We've had to raise the price," Mr. Greenly stated.

"You sent me this brochure after we made our reservation," Miss Joan complained, "and it says two dollars!"

"Miss Joan, if you look at the bottom of this brochure," Mr. Greenly said, "you'll notice very important statement."

Sure enough, in very tiny letters, it said, "Prices are subject to change without notice."

Miss Joan was determined to keep her good mood. She took a twenty dollars bill out of her own purse and handed it to Mr. Greenly with the forty dollars she had in an envelope.

"Now children, do you all have your baskets?" Miss Joan called out. "Remember, each of you can pick as many apples as possible."

Mr. Greenly said, "You can't pick as many apples as possible."

"I beg your pardon!" Miss Joan was not smiling now. "The brochure says, 'ALL YOU

CAN PICK'!"

Mr. Greenly pointed to the tiniest letters Miss Joan had ever almost seen. It also says, "Terms and conditions of group reservations are subject to change without notice."

Miss Joan's good mood was now history. She didn't want to set a bad example for her students,so she said in a calm and quiet voice, "We're going home, give me our money back, please."

38. The students could not pick as many apples as they would like because __________ .

第三篇

Sea Horses

Sea horses are unusual parents. The female sea horses lay the eggs, but unlike other creatures,it's the males that give birth to the young.

Male sea horses have a fold of skin on their bellies that forms pocket, called a brood pouch.

During the breeding season, the sea horse's pouch swells to receive eggs. A female sea horse lays up to 200 eggs at a time in the pouch. Then she swims off, leaving her male partner to care for the developing eggs and give birth to young sea horses. The female will return everyday to check on her mate and the eggs, but she doesn't stay long, nor does she take part in the birth.

It takes from two to six weeks for the eggs in the male's pouch to develop. During this time the male avoids open water and hides in sea grass. His big pouch makes it difficult for him to swim, so the male often uses his tail to grasp a piece of sea grass. Firmly gripping the grass, he will stay perfectly still for hours or even days. The male sea horse will change his color to blend with his surroundings and avoid being seen by predators who will try to eat him or poke holes in his pouch to get the eggs.

The eggs hatch inside the male's pouch. When the babies begin moving around, the male sea horse knows it's time for them to be born. He grabs a sea grass stem with his tail and begins rocking, bending, and stretching his body so that the rest of the babies can be born. Sometimes he has to press his pouch against a rock or some stiff seaweed to force the young out.

Sea horse babies are bom in groups of five or more. Sometimes it takes two days for the father sea horse to give birth to all his young. He is very tired when it's over.

Soon after giving birth to one brood, the male will approach his mate and show her his empty pouch. This tells her he is ready to receive eggs again.

41. What part does the female sea horse play in having babies?

A. Receiving eggs.

B. Laying eggs.

C. Hatching eggs.

D. Protecting eggs.

42. What can be leamed from the passage about giving birth to baby sea horses?

A. It is dangerous for the female.

B. It happens once a year.

C. It is hard work for the male.

D. It occurs in the deep sea.

43. To protect himself and his eggs, the male sea horse does all the following EXCEPT __________ .

A. changing his color

B. gripping a piece of grass

C. staying motionless

D. enlarging his pouch

44. The author suggests that when sea horse babies are ready to be born __________ .

A. the male sea horse seems very happy

B. it is difficult for them to come out

C. the female sea horse joins the male

D. they need larger space in the pouch

45. Which fact does the author want the reader to remember most?

A. The male sea horse gives birth to the young.

B. The female sea horse lays up to 200 eggs at a time.

C. Baby sea horses are born in groups of five or more.

D. The female will return every day to check on the eggs.
