（2016高考阅读理解）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。
One windy spring day，I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites.Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds dashing and dancing in the exciting atmosphere above the earth.As the strong winds gusted against the kites，a string kept them in check.
Instead of blowing away with the wind，they arose against it to achieve great heights.They shook and pulled，but the controlling string and the clumsy tail kept them in tow(牵引)，facing upward and against the wind.As the kites struggled and trembled against the string，they seemed to say，“Let me go！Let me go！I want to be free！” They flew beautifully even as they fought the forced restriction of the string.Finally，one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose.“Free at last，” it seemed to say.“Free to fly with the wind.”
Yet freedom from control simply put it at the mercy of an unsympathetic gentle wind.It flew ungracefully to the ground and landed in a twisted mass of weeds and string against a dead bush.“Free at last”．Free to lie powerless in the dirt，to be blown helplessly along the ground，and to settle down lifeless against the first roadblock.
How much like kites we sometimes are.There always exist misfortunes and restrictions，rules to follow from which we can grow and gain strength.Prohibition is a necessary counterpart to the winds of opposition.Some of us pulled at the rules so hard that we never fly fast to reach the heights we might have obtained.If we keep all the commandment(戒律)，we will never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground.
Let us each rise to the great heights，recognizing that some of the prohibitions are actually the steady force that helps us climb and achieve.

（2016高考阅读理解）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。
“Goodbye，Trevor，”I said to my nineyearold son as he trudged through the snowy yard on his way to school.But，as usual，he didn’t turn around or acknowledge my words.He had just been diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)，which explained his lack of expression and communication.Since the age of three，he had almost completely stopped talking.He wouldn’t even look at me and smile.
Everything had to be the same every day，including his black mittens(连指手套)．No other pair would do.But this morning I couldn’t find his black mittens，so he had to wear a spare pair.He had slammed the door.
I watched his little blond head bob up and down behind the fence as he continued walking to school，gesturing with his hands.He talks to himself all the time.If only he would share a story or two with me，I thought，as I left the window and returned to finish the breakfast dishes.
Tears dropped onto the table as I wiped the spot where Trevor sat each morning for breakfast.He routinely blurted out inappropriate messages to his cereal，but I was merely the invisible robot that served him.
“Good night，I love you，”was only a rote saying that he recited each night at bedtime.
A knock at the door interrupted my sullen thoughts.“Trevor！What’s wrong？Did you forget your books？”He didn’t answer.
“Mommy，”he began.“Yes？”I whispered.I slowly lowered to my knees to be at his eye level.If I moved too quickly，I would shatter this fragile moment.
His bright blue eyes grew shiny，and a tear slipped down his round cheeks.
“Mommy，I’m sorry，”he said.
He only spoke three simple words，but his soul had opened.He had talked to me from his heart.He showed emotion.Then his face hardened，and he turned and ran.
All it took was three words，a tear，and his round blue eyes looking into mine.And I will always be grateful to God for giving me this little spark of hope.
1．When Trevor went to school that morning，he was
.
A．angry
B．happy
C．reluctant
D．sick
2．Why did Trevor come back?
A．To take his books in his bedroom.
B．To make an apology to his mom.
C．To show his emotion of thankfulness.
D．To wear more clothes to keep warm.
3．The underlined word “shatter”
in Paragraph 7 may mean “
”．
A．forget
B．avoid
C．destroy
D．seize
4．The last paragraph suggests that the writer firmly believes
.
A．Trevor would get into touch with her
B．Trevor would speak three words again
C．Trevor would open a door for others
D．Trevor would recover from his disease
1．A [细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But this morning I couldn’t find his black mittens，so he had to wear a spare pair.He had slAimeed the door.”可知，因为手套的问题，Trevor生气地去上学了。]
2．B [细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“‘Mommy，I’m sorry，’he said.”可知，Trevor回来是为了向作者表示歉意的。]
3．C [词义猜测题。根据划线词前面的“‘Yes？’I whispered.I slowly lowered to my knees to be at his eye level.If I moved too quickly...”可知，由于Trevor很长时间不和作者进行交流，这次他突然回来，让作者感到非常吃惊，生怕自己行动快了，会摧毁这美好的一刻。]
4．D [推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“And I will always be grateful to God for giving me this little spark of hope.”可知，作者对于儿子会有朝一日和父母进行交流感到有了一丝的希望。]

Two years ago my grandmother was going to turn 75.My family discussed what the best way to celebrate was.Should we throw her a party？Should we take her on a trip？We remembered that she had touched so many people’s lives，and there were so many people for her to consider.Then someone got the idea that we should include everyone in the celebration by turning it into a tribute(献礼) to my grandmother.
We secretly sent out letters to the people in grandmother’s address book and asked them to send a letter with a memory that they had shared with her.People sent us letters with poems，stories and pictures.The deep feeling that was shared through the response surprised us.We compiled(编纂) these letters into a memory book and amazed her with it on the morning of her birthday.
The unusual thing about my grandmother’s friends was not the number that she had，but the connection they shared.In many ways this book of friendship was the greatest achievement of my grandmother’s life.
I believe that developing true friendships is one of the most important things that anyone can do in one’s lifetime.It is not a matter of the number of friends one has，but the quality of the bonds.If one has had at least one true friendship before dying，then one can say he has lived a successful life.I have made many friends and I believe I have begun to develop the same types of friendships my grandmother kept up over her lifetime.I only hope that I will be as successful as she has been.
