山东省淄博市淄川中学2017-2018学年高二上学期英语期末考试试卷
Among the teachers in my life，there is one person I called“Old Uncle”．I first met with him a decade ago when I was in primary school． During those rides，Old Uncle told me about his life．
He made a living by riding tricycles(三轮车)and raised the children on his own．His daughter gave up the chance to go to college so that the younger brother would have money to go after his future．Later on，she became a nurse at a hospital through her hard work．
For each ride，Old Uncle should charge me five yuan．However，he insisted on accepting only four from me．In our conversations，he told me to always have a good heart，to be a good student，child and person． More movingly，every time he took me to school，he asked whether I had eaten breakfast and would try to offer me biscuits．
Old Uncle was one of the early people who led me to explore pain and suffering， unintentionally and naturally，through stories and giving．He didn't complain(抱怨)about the hardships he had suffered in life． Ten years later as I thought back to the scene，I came to realize that Old Uncle and I shared space，and connected through our spirit．
A．I knew that Old Uncle lived a difficult life．
B．Old Uncle would pay the price for his behavior．
C．He took me to school in his tricycle every morning．
D．Old Uncle guided me to see the beauty of human nature．
E．Instead，he shared peacefully as if they weren't happening on him．
F．His wife had passed away when their two children were still young．
G．He said this with so much caring that I listened with my whole heart．
“As easy as falling off a log” is often used to describe a job that does not take much effort. You might hear a student say to her friend that her spelling test was “as easy as falling off a log”. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. It is easier to fall off the log than to stay on it.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. One is “easy as pie”. Nothing is easier than eating a piece of sweet, juicy pie unless it is a “piece of cake”.
“Piece of cake” is another expression that means something is extremely easy to do. A friend might tell you that his new job was a “piece of cake”.
Another expression is “as easy as shooting fish in a barrel”. It is hard to imagine why anyone would want to shoot fish in a barrel. But, clearly, fish in a barrel would be much easier to shoot than fish in a stream. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}.
Sometimes, things that come to us easily, also leave us just as easily. In fact, there is an expression —“easy come, easy go”—that recognizes this. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. Easy come, easy go.
When life itself is easy, when you have no cares or problems, you are on “Easy Street”. Everyone wants to live on that imaginary street.
{#blank#}5{#/blank#}. It means to treat a person kindly or gently, especially in a situation where you might be expected to be angry with him. A wife might urge her husband to “go easy on” their son, because the boy did not mean to damage the car.
A. If you ever tried to walk on a fallen tree log, you understand what the expression means. B. You may win a lot of money in a lottery, then spend it all in a few days. C. Every people has its own way of saying things, its own special expressions. D. Another “easy” expression is to “go easy on a person”. E. There are several other expressions that mean the same thing. F. And one last expression, one that means do not worry or work too hard. G. In fact, it would be as easy as “falling off a log”. |
