[2023·江苏徐州高一期中]B

In mid-August, Hou Changliang and Lei Yudan finally held their wedding ceremony at Hou's hometown in Shaoyang, central China's Hunan Province.

During the past 11 years, Hou has been traveling and teaching in rural schools across three provinces in Southwest China. In 2011, he signed up for a program, funded by government agencies since 2003.The programme sends college graduates to China's underdeveloped western regions to work for one to three years in different fields, such as education, agriculture and rural management.

Born into a rural family, Hou knows how life-changing education can be for a rural kid. When most young people were competing for places in big cities, Hou headed deep into the mountains. For Hou, the most difficult aspect of teaching in a remote village was not the poor working conditions, low income that come with it. For two years, he battled to end the alarming drop-out rate among his students in Dahua, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

Locals often saw little reason to support school education for their children, especially girls.“The number of students tended to dwindle after winter vacations,” said Hou.“After the Chinese New Year, some were brought to big cities to work when they were old enough.”

Since the 1990s, working in cities has gradually become the main way of employment for rural laborers. Working in cities becomes the most popular path for young people from rural regions to earn a decent（体面的） income and become independent early, but at the cost of their education.

Studies into the high drop-out rate of rural students in middle school show that students from poor families often feel anxious about the burden of education on their parents and are more likely to drop out when they have poor grades.

“If I can't change the parents' mind, at least I can change the mind of my students—the future parents, ” said Hou.

4. What is the purpose of the program in China's underdeveloped western regions?

A. To develop different fields.

B. To provide jobs for the graduates.

C. To promote the education development.

D. To guide college students to choose a career.

5. What problem does Hou find most difficult to solve in teaching?

A. Students' ignorance of the importance of education.

B. The gap between the rural area and the city.

C. The hard working conditions and income.

D. The high drop-out rate.

6. What does the underlined word “dwindle” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A. Remain the same. B. Shoot up. C. Decrease. D. Change.

7. What can we learn about rural students from the last two paragraphs?

A. They obey their parents. B. Their mind needs to change.

C. They feel great pressure to study. D. They generally have poor grades.

Ⅴ.七选五

Patrick Modiano, the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2014, seems less-known among general Chinese readers.

In Dong Qiang's opinion, a professor at Peking University, Modiano has been a celebrated writer in France ever since.                                                                                           1      What surprised him was that a French writer was awarded the Nobel, since it was only six years ago that another French writer, Le Clezio, took the prize.

Born in a western Paris suburb in July 1945—two months after World WarⅡ ended in Europe—Modiano spent most of his life in France and studied in Paris, the top preparatory school in France. Raymond Queneau, a writer, was one of his teachers there.   2                                                                                          

In the first interview Modiano gave after winning the Nobel, he explained that writing for him was a natural thing that he started quite young, “             3       ”

Modiano has published about 30 works, including novels, film scripts and children's books, since his first book, La Place de l'toile, in 1968.Modiano's works focus on the occupation of France during World War Ⅱ.                                                                                           4                                                                                          

Jin Longge, who has translated three books by Modiano into Chinese, says, “        5      But they are not detective novels, because the answers to the riddles set out in his novels usually remain untold and the reader is left to find his own answers.”

A. He had a major influence on him.

B. His works read like detective novels.

C. It was not a surprise that he won the prize.

D. It's something that's been part of my life.

E. They will be published in the coming months.

F. They invite the reader to seek identity through memory and history.

G. Many of his readers came to know of him and started to read his works.

Ⅵ.语法填空

Have you ever told a story about someone but forgotten his or her name? Not to worry! In English, we have special names to replace it, so 1.（you） story doesn't come to a sudden stop.

In the US, if a name has been forgotten, 2.（simple） say the name John Doe for a man, or Jane Doe for a woman. You can use these names for any situation where someone's name is 3.（miss）.For example: “Did you see that guy 4. got wet in the rain?” “Ah yes, poor John Doe.”
