(1)徐州市 2021 届高三 9 月学情调研考试之 C
In a country where many girls are still discouraged from going to school, Sushma Verma is having anything
but a typical childhood.
The 13-year-old girl from a poor family in north India has enrolled in ( 入学登记) a masters degree in
microbiology, after her father sold his land to pay for some of his daughters tuition to help her to be part of India’s
growing middle class.
Verma finished high school at 7 and earned an undergraduate degree at age 13 with the encouragement of her
uneducated and poor parents. “They allowed me to do what I wanted to do,” Verma said, “I hope that other parents
don’t make their children accept their choices.”
Sushma lives with her family in a crowded single-room apartment in Lucknow. Their only income is her
fathers daily wage of up to 200 rupees (less than $3. 50) for laboring on construction sites. Their most precious
possessions include a study table and a second-hand computer. It is not a great atmosphere for studying, she
admitted. But having no television and little else at home has advantages, she said. “There is nothing to do but
study.”
Her first choice was to become a doctor, but she cannot take the test to qualify for medical school until she is
18. “So I chose the masters of science and then I will do a doctors degree,” she said.
In another family, Sushma might not have been able to receive higher education. Millions of Indian children
are still not enrolled in grade school, and many of them are girls whose parents choose to hold them back in favour
of advancing their sons. Some from conservative () village cultures are expected only to get married. “The
girl is an inspiration for students who are born with everything”, said Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak of Sulabh
International, who decided to help after seeing a local television program on Sushma. She is also receiving financial
aid from well-wishing civilians and other charities.
8. Which word can best describe Sushma Verma’s father?
A. Strict. B. Educated.
C. Understanding. D. Supportive.
9. Why does the writer mention a study table and a second-hand computer?
A. To show her family enjoy a simple life.
B. To show her family live a very poor life.
C. To tell us her room is poorly furnished.
D. To tell us her room is a great place to study in.

(2)慈溪中学高三 2020-2021 学年上学期 9月月考英语试题之 A
The magic of these book-lined buildings---libraries, really filled my childhood with delight. Parenthood helped
2
me experience that joy again.
I was raised in the countryside of Cleveland, just a few blocks from the brick-faced library, Bertram Woods. I
went there several times a week with my mother. She and I would walk in together, but as soon as we passed
through the door, we each headed to our favorite section separately. We all valued books, but my parents believed
that the reading of the book was a journey. There was no need for souvenirs. When I left for college, one of the
many ways I made myself different from my parents was that I went wild for owning books. Buying textbooks was
what got me going, but I lost my appreciation for the slow pace of making my way through a library and for having
books on borrowed time.
I might have spent the rest of my life thinking about libraries in the way I thought about the amusement park I
went to as a kid. And they might have become just a bookmark of memory, something that was mixed
with “mother” and “the past” in my mind. That changed in 2011 when my son got his school homework---to
interview someone who worked for the city. I suggested talking to a police officer, but he said he wanted to
interview a librarian.
As we drove to meet the librarian, I was flooded by a sense of absolute familiarity and the memory of this
journey, of parent and child on their way to the library. I had taken this trip so many times before, but now it was
turned on its head, and I was the parent bringing my child on that special trip.
From the outside, the decoration of the library didn't look anything like the brick Bertram Woods branch, but
when we stepped in, the thunderbolt of recognition struck me so hard that it made me out of breath.
There was the same soft tsk-tsk-tsk of pencil on paper, and the murmuring from readers at the tables in the center
of the room. It brought me close to my mother and our journey to the library.
At that moment
,
the spell that libraries had once cast on me was renewed. Maybe it had never really been
broken, although I had been away long enough that it was like visiting a country I’d loved but had forgotten as my
life went swiftly by.
1. What can we know about the authors parents?
A. They enjoyed the same favorite section in the library as the author.
B. They valued books and preferred to house them at home.
C. They held different views from the author towards buying books.
D. They loved buying books as souvenirs on their journey.
2. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. The author immediately recognized the familiar outside decoration.
