阅读理解提升练(四)‎ A I have always thought of myself as a doer.In work,I definitely was and continue to be.As a mom,I’m mostly a doer.However,my treatment for breast cancer made me realize I had not been a doer in the way I wanted to be—but that was about to change.‎ I have been afraid of flying since I worked in news and covered many plane crashes and had my own horrific experience.My family had never been to another continent together.Now that the chemo (化疗) was over,as a gift to myself,my kids and my mom,I took them all to London to celebrate life before beginning radiation every weekday for six weeks.‎ This time I decided not to think too much about it.When you look in the mirror without hair,you do your best to get through your day as if it were a day before you discovered your lump (肿瘤).Then everything seems doable.So I just booked the trip.‎ Our flight on British Airways was my best ever.I don’t know if it was the size of the plane,the comfort of the seats,the TVs or the family friendliness that made the time fly by for me.On every flight,I say a quick hello to the pilot,which calms me.This time,the pilot took extra time to explain the maps and weather patterns and calmed me down.That certainly helped a bit,or was it possible that the chemo cured this fear too?‎ Every day I planned a different adventure—everything from tours of Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle to the original bus tour.They learned and loved every minute and shockingly,they didn’t complain.‎ I had wanted to do so for years.Life and work had gotten in the way,but we finally did it.I planned this incredible trip during chemo and will plan another.Sometimes,the best adventures come after surviving your greatest fears.‎ ‎1.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to 　　　. ‎ A.her fear of flying B.her breast cancer C.the finished chemo D.the planned family trip ‎2.On the author’s family’s trip to London,　　　. ‎ A.the author overcame her fear of flying thanks to her family B.the kids were not so interested in the places they visited C.the family enjoyed themselves during different adventures D.the family didn’t visit many places because of the author’s health condition ‎3.The best title for the text would be 　　　. ‎ 4‎ A.Cancer Gets in the Way B.Surviving the Fear C.Living a Plain Life D.A Successful Doer as Mom B It was a cold March day in High Point,North Carolina.The girls on the Wesleyan Academy softball team were waiting for their next turns at bat during practice,stamping their feet to stay warm.Eighth-grader Taylor Bisbee shivered(发抖) a little as she watched her teammate Paris White play.The two didn’t know each other well —Taylor had just moved to town a month or so before.‎ Suddenly,Paris fell to the ground,“Paris’s eyes rolled back,” Taylor says.“She started shaking.I knew it was an emergency.”‎ It certainly was.Paris had suffered a sudden heart failure.Without immediate medical care,Paris would die.At first,no one moved.The girls were in shock.Then the softball coach shouted out,“Does anyone know CPR?”‎ CPR is a life-saving technique.To do CPR,you press on the sick person’s chest so that blood moves through the body and takes oxygen to organs.Without oxygen,the brain is damaged quickly.‎ Amazingly,Taylor had just taken a CPR course the day before.Still,she hesitated.She didn’t think she knew it well enough.But when no one else came forward,Taylor ran to Paris and began doing CPR.“It was scary.I knew it was the difference between life and death,” says Taylor.‎ Taylor’s swift action helped her teammates calm down.One girl called 911.Two more ran to get the school nurse,who brought a defibrillator,an electronic device(器械) that can shock the heart back into work.Luck stayed with them:Paris’s heartbeat returned.‎ ‎“I know I was really lucky,” Paris says now.“Most people don’t survive this.My team saved my life.”‎ Experts say Paris is right:For a sudden heart failure,the single best chance for survival is having someone nearby step in and do CPR quickly.‎ Today,Paris is back on the softball team.Taylor will apply to college soon.She wants to be a nurse.“I feel more confident in my actions now,” Taylor says.“I know I can act under pressure in a scary situation.”‎ ‎4.What happened to Paris on a March day?‎ A.She caught a bad cold.‎ B.She had a sudden heart problem.‎ C.She was knocked down by a ball.‎ D.She shivered terribly during practice.‎ ‎5.Why does Paris say she was lucky?‎ A.She made a worthy friend.‎ B.She recovered from shock.‎ C.She received immediate CPR.‎ D.She came back on the softball team.‎ ‎6.Which of the following words can best describe Taylor?‎ A.Enthusiastic and kind.‎ B.Courageous and calm.‎ C.Cooperative and generous.‎ D.Ambitious and professional.‎ C 4‎ ‎(原创)‎ China was poor and backward compared to the rest of the world up until a few decades ago,but that changed and it’s changing so fast.It’s simply fascinating.‎ China offers the unlimited amount of different activities for having fun.The nightclubs here are giant stadiums with IMAX 3D screens;they have things like escape rooms,unbelievable theme parks,outdoor natural parks and much more.‎ ‎ Technologically,China is of course advanced in many ways.For example,electric transport(交通运输系统) has been highly developed here for years.You can find electric bikes,personal transportation vehicles,electric taxis and cars,even
