To swim across the English Channel takes at least nine hours. It‘s hard work and it makes you short of breath. To fly over the channel takes only twenty minutes as long as you’re not held up at the airport, but it‘s an expensive way to travel. You can travel by hovercraft (氣墊船)if you don’t mind the noise and that takes forty minutes. Otherwise, you can go by boat, if you remember your sea-sickness pills. All these means of transport have their problems, and the weary(厭煩的)traveler often dreams of being able to drive to France in his own car. “Not possible, you say. Well, wait a minute. People are once again considering the idea of a channel tunnel or bridge.” This time, the great London Council(議會)is looking into the possibility of building a channel link straight to London. A bridge would cost far more than a tunnel, but you would be able to make a journey by rail or by car on a bridge, yet a tunnel would provide a rail link only. Why is this idea being discussed again? Is Britain realizing the need for links with Europe as a result of joining EEC?Well, perhaps, the main reason, though, is that a tunnel or bridge would reach the twenty square kilometers of London‘s discussed dockland(船塢)。 A link from London to the continent would stimulate(刺激) trade and revitalize(使重新具有活力)the port, and would make London a main trading center in Europe. With a link over the Channel, you could buy your fish and chips in England and be able to eat them in France while they are still warm!

From the lines we can see that people crossed the Channel by ______ in the past.

A. air   B. boat    C. swimming   D. A, B, or C

The weary traveler thinks the best way to cross the Channel is ______.

A. by swimming   B. in his own car   C. by air  D. by hovercraft

A tunnel would cost______ a bridge.

A. far less than  B. as much as  C. far more than  D. as little as

The main idea of the passage is______.

A. how to develop the trade of London

B. when to cross the Channel

C. how to get to Europe from London more conveniently

D. what to do in the developing of traveling

科目:高中英語 來源:2013屆遼寧省高三上學(xué)期期中考試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?

At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy. As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.” Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green – eyed monster” and the UK is its home.

Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. Some were given a little, others a great deal. Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.

This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain. But there is also conflicting evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world’s fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.

“It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”

Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem. They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them. It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.

1.Most entrepreneurs surveyed believe that        .

A.the British people hate success

B.the British people are hardworking

C.love of success is Britain’s national character

D.they are considered as “green – eyed monsters”

2.What does the result of the Warwich University’s test show.

A.Two thirds of the people tested didn’t love money.

B.Most people would rather fail than see others succeed.

C.An imaginary amount of money does not attract people.

D.Most people are willing to enjoy success with others.

3.The writer of the passage seems to suggest that         .

A.jealousy is Britain’s national character

B.British entrepreneurs are not fairly treated

C.the scientists at Warwich University did a successful test

D.the entrepreneurs in the UK do not behave properly

4.The best title for this article can be            .

A.Be More Modest and We Will Love You More

B.Proud Entrepreneurs

C.The Frenchmen are Romantic While The British are Hostile

D.Only Pains but No Gains
