With the tears streaming down her face,she put her two hands to her lips,and kissed them to Him; then clasped(紧握着)them on her breast,as if she laid his ruined head there.
“You are not the gaoler’s(监狱长)daughter ?”
She sighed“No. ”
“Who are you ?”
Not yet trusting the tones of her voice,she sat down on the bench beside him.He drew back
but she laid her hand upon his arm.A strange thrill struck him when she did so, and visibly passed
over his frame; he laid the knife down softly,as he sat staring at her.
Her golden hair,which she wore in long curls,had been hurriedly pushed aside,and fell down
over her neck.Advancing his hand by little and little,he took it up and looked at it.In the middle
of the action he went astray,and,with another deep sigh,fell to work at his shoemaking.
But lot for long.Releasing his arm,she laid her hand upon his shoulder.After looking
doubtfully at it,two or three times,as if to be sure that it was really there,he laid down his work,
put his hand to his neck,and took off a blackened string with a scrap of folded rag attached to it.
He opened this,carefully,on his knee,and it contained a very little quantity of hair:not more than
one or two long golden hairs,which he had,in some old day,wound on upon his finger.
He took her hair into his hand again,and looked closely at it.“It is the same.How can it be!
When was it! How was it!”
As the concentrating expression returned to his forehead,he seemed to become conscious that
it was in hers too.He turned her full to the light,and looked at her.
“She had laid her head upon my shoulder,that night when I was summoned(传唤)out—she
had a fear of my going,though I had none—and when I was brought to the North Tower they
found these upon my sleeve.‘You will leave me them? They can never help me to escape in the
body,though they may in the spirit.’Those were the words I said.I remember them very well. ”
He formed this speech with his lips many times before he could utter it.But when he did find
spoken words for it,they came to him coherently(连贯地),though slowly.
“How was this?一Was it you? ”

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。
A report consistently brought back by visitors to the US is how friendly,courteous and helpful most Americans were to them.To be fair,this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians,and should best be considered North American.There are,of course,exceptions.Small-minded officials,rude waiters,and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US.Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment.For a long period of time and in many parts of the country, a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence.
Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families who generally lived distant from one another.Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of diversion,and brought news of the outside world.The harsh realities of the frontier also shaped this tradition of hospitality.
Someone traveling alone,if hungry,injured,or ill,often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest cabin or settlement.It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or merely a charitable impulse on the part of the settlers.It reflected the harshness of daily life: if you didn‘t take in the stranger and take care of him,there was no one else who would.And someday,remember,you might be in the same situation.Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the weary traveler.Yet,the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US,especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist trails.“I was just traveling through,got talking with this American,and pretty soon he invited me home for dinner—amazing.” Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon,but are not always understood properly.
1.In the eyes of visitors from the outside world,___________.
A.rude taxi drivers are rarely seen in the US
B.small-minded officials deserve a serious comment
C.Canadians are not so friendly as their neighbors
D.most Americans are ready to offer help
2.It could be inferred from the last paragraph that ___________.
A.culture exercises an influence over social interrelationship
B.courteous convention and individual interest are interrelated
C.various virtues manifest themselves exclusively among friends
D.social interrelationships equal the complex set of cultural conventions
3.Families in frontier settlements used to entertain strangers ___________.
A.to improve their hard life
B.in view of their long-distance travel
C.to add some flavor to their own daily life
D.out of a charitable impulse
4.The tradition of hospitality to strangers ___________.
A.tends to be superficial and artificial
B.is generally well kept up in the united States
C.is always understood properly
D.has something to do with the busy tourist trails
5.What’s the author’s attitudes toward the American‘s friendliness?
A.Favorable.
B.Unfavorable.
C.Indifferent.
D.Neutral.

The next day I decided to go back to the park,curious to see if the little girl would still be there.Right in the very spot as she was yesterday,she sat with the saddest look in her eyes.
Today I was to make my own move and walk over to the little girl.As we all know,a park full of strange people is not a place for young children to play alone.
As I began walking towards her,I could see the back of the little girl’s dress indicated a deformity(畸形).I smiled to let her know it was okay,I was there to help,to talk.I sat down beside her and opened with a simple “Hello”.I smiled and she shyly smiled back.We talked until darkness fell and the park was completely empty.I asked the girl why she was so sad.The little girl looked at me and with a sad face said,“Because I’m different.”
I immediately said “That you are!” and smiled.The little girl acted even sadder.She said,“I know.” She looked at me and smiled.Slowly she stood to her feet,and said,“Really?”
“Yes,dear,you’re like a little guardian angel sent to watch over all those people walking by.” She nodded her head “yes” and smiled,and with that she spread her wings and said with a twinkle in her eye,“I am.I’m your guardian angel.”
I was speechless,sure I was seeing things.She said,“For once you thought of someone other than yourself,my job here is done.”
Immediately I stood to my feet and said,“Wait,so why did no one stop to help an angel!?” She looked at me and smiled,“You’re the only one who could see me,and you believe it in your heart.”…and she was gone.

【由山东省2016高考仿真冲刺卷()阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。While watching the Olympics the other night,I came across an unbelievable sight.It was not a gold medal,or a world record broken,but a show of courage.
The event was swimming and started with only three men on the blocks.For one reason or another,two of them false started,so they were disqualified.That left only one to compete.It would have been difficult enough,not having anyone to race against,even though the time on the clock is important.
I watched the man dive off the block and knew right away that something was wrong.I’m not an expert swimmer,but I can tell a good dive from a poor one,and this was not exactly medal quality.When he resurfaced,it was evident that the man was not out for gold – his arms were waving in an attempt at freestyle.The crowd started to laugh.Clearly this man was not a medal competitor.
I listened to the crowd begin to laugh at this poor man who was clearly having a hard time.Finally he made his turn to start back.It was pitiful.He made a few desperate strokes and you could tell he was worn out.But in those few awful strokes,the crowd had changed.
No longer were they laughing,but beginning to cheer.Some even began to stand and shout “Come on,you can do it!” and he did.
A clear minute past the average swimmer,this young man finally finished his race.The crowd went wild.You would have thought that he had won the gold,and he should have.Even though he recorded one of the slowest times in Olympic history,this man gave more heart than any of the other competitors.
Just a short year ago,he had never even swum,let alone race.His country had been invited to Sydney.’s courage
C.they wanted to show their sympathy
D.they meant to please the young man
3.According to the passage,“it is nice to watch an underdog” probably means

A.it’s amazing to watch an ordinary man challenging himself
B.it’s amusing to watch a man with awful swimming skills
C.it’s cheerful for athletes to act proudly before their competitors
D.it’s brave enough for some athletes to remove the silver medals

B.The crowd started to laugh at the athlete’s arms waving in an attempt at freestyle.
C.The athlete,as well as the author,is an expert swimmer.
