If you love adventure and excitement, then Hunter's best-selling Warriors series is for you. The fantasy books follow four cat clans (部落）as they try to survive in the wilderness. In the newest book Thunder Clan warrior ，Ash fur has been mysteriously murdered. This sets three warrior cats named Holly leaf, Lion blaze and Jay feather on a journey to find the killer.

The three friends must deal with other problems, too. Jay feather is searching for his parents, but he must struggle against many lies to find them. Holly leaf encounters her own barriers when her clan refuses to follow the warrior rule. And Lion blaze discovers some unbelievable secrets. Besides, the cats face many dangers and the chance that another warrior will disappear forever.

“Hunter” is really a pen name for Victoria Holmes and two other authors, Kate Cary and Cherith Baldry. They chose Hunter to cover the three of them because of Red Wall ，a very successful book written by Brian Jacques. It is a similar animal fantasy about rats and mice. Because Warriors was going to fit into that bracket (級(jí)另!j)，they wanted their books to go into the bookshelves next to his. So they needed a name alphabetically that would be close to Jacques. Hunter fits perfectlyi

“ My favorite character is Jay feather. You never know if he is on the side of the angels or not. He's got a quite dark side about him. In terms of the cat that I would like to be my best friend, that would be Cinder pelt. She is so cool. She has a great sense of humor and she is a good medicine cat. Even if she isn't a warrior, she tries to make the best of her destiny (命運(yùn)). I really admire that in her,” said Victoria Holmes, one of the authors,

35.The three warrior cats go on a journey mainly to _____.

A. survive in the wilderness                      B. protect another warrior from disappearing

C. find the killer that murdered Ash fur D. look for some adventure and excitement

36.From the second paragraph ，we can learn that _____.

B. the warrior rule of Holly leaf，s clan is terrible

C. the journey is not easy for the three cats

D, there are lots of unbelievable secrets among the clans

37.The authors chose Hunter as the pen name because   _____.

A. the book is about the hunting of cats

B. they all admired the fantasy author Brian Jacques

C. the books should be placed into the bookshelves marked as “H”

D. they wanted their books to be best-sellers just like Jacques' Red Wall

A. She has a sense of humor.                        B. She is on the side of the angels.

C. She attempts to make the best of her destiny. D. She is a good medicine cat.

For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D． Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context．

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of  1  , teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become． You  2 know who these people maybe （possibly your roommate, neighbor, co-worker, long lost friend, lover, or even a complete stranger）, but when you lock eyes with them, you know at that very moment they will affect your life in some 3  way．

And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful． and unfair at first, but __4__you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart．

Everything happens for a reason． Nothing happens5  or by means of good luck． Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul． 6  these small tests whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere． It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly  7 ． The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, help to create who you are and who you become．

Even the  8  experiences can be learned from． In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones． If someone hurts you,   9  you, or breaks your heart, forgive them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart． If someone loves you, love them back  10  , not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your  11  and eyes to things．

Make every day count．   12  every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again． Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen． Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high． Hold your head up because you have  13 right to． Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don’t believe in yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you． You can make of your life anything you wish． Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no 14  ．

Most importantly, if you LOVE someone, tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have  15  ． And learn a lesson in life each day that you live．

That’s the story of life．

1.A． people                              B． purpose                      C． intention                    D． advantage

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2010年河南大學(xué)附屬中學(xué)高二上學(xué)期期中考試英語(yǔ)卷 題型：閱讀理解

What color do you like best? Do you like yellow, orange and red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, or an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grey and blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are likely to be strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists （心理學(xué)家）tell us. They have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effects that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don’t choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you do so as soon as you open your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.

　　Black is depressing while light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one does, and a red dress adds warmth and cheer to sad winter days. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark grey.

　　Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a few colorful things. Also remember that you will know your friends (and your enemies) better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don’t forget that anyone can guess a lot about you when you choose a piece of handkerchief.

67. 1.According to the passage, men’s 110-meter hurdles Olympic champion and world record holder Liu Xiang is most likely to love the color ______.

A．black

B．grey

C．green

D．brown

68. 2.Why are machines painted orange in some factories, according to the passage?

A．Because workers tend to prefer orange to other colors.

B．Because other colors are forbidden in factories.

C．Because less accidents happen due to the introduction of orange machines.

D．Because orange machines are easier to clean.

69. 3.Which of the following statements is Not true according to the passage?

A．It’s possible to cheer you up by enjoying some colorful pictures.

B．You can know your friends better through the color they like or dislike.

C．Some people are born with their colorful preference.

D．One’s color preference is always changeable.

70. 4.The underlined word ‘depressing’ in Paragraph 2 probably means ‘______’.

A．discouraging

B．happy

C．surprising

D．brave
