　　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? ”

　　2024高考选练----阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。Where is it possible to drive from Rome to Moscow, Madrid, Paris, Vienna, and Stockholm without going to Europe? The answer is in the state of Maine!

　　Throughout the United States there are many towns and cities that have been named after not only European cities but other countries as well, such as China, Poland, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Just how many New World place names are recycled from the Old World names has never been tallied, but one researcher found forty-one Londons, fifty-six Berlins, twenty-four Dublins, thirty-two Athenses, and twenty-seven Moscows, among others!

　　Reasons for European place names differ. Some were in memory of settlers’ former homes, others in honor of historic events. Founded in 1818 by John Coffee, Robert Beaty, John D. Carroll, and John Read, Athens is one of the oldest incorporated cities in the State of Alabama. The town was first called Athenson, and the name was then shortened to Athens, after the ancient city in Greece. More interestingly, some names were given by mistake. For instance, the people of Moscow, Kansas, wanted their city to follow the name of the explorer Moscoso. They shortened his name to Mosco, and an official in Washington, thinking the Kansans couldn't spell, added a ‘W’.

　　【2024模拟试题】

　　Recently, professor of philosophy（哲学）in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our daily life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life.

　　He says our relations with others often become clearly defined（清晰的）when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful relationship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.

　　Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book.

　　Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a self-made man?

　　Answer: The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is rich.

　　People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.

　　26. According to the first paragraph, people have not realized ______.

　　A. how important money is in their daily life

　　B. how one spends money shows what is important to him

　　C. that money is more important than their philosophy of life

　　D. that their understanding of life is more important than money

　　27. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some

　　money ________.

　　A. is a good way to test your friendship

　　B. will do harm to your friendship

　　C. will strengthen your friendship

　　D. is a good way to break off your friendship

　　28. What does the American professor of philosophy want to explain in his book?

　　A. Money is an end．

　　B. Money is a means．

　　C. Money is everything．

　　D. Money is unimportant

　　29. The underlined phrase “enter the picture” in the second paragraph can be replaced by “_________”.

　　A. is used up

　　B. is spent on pictures

　　C. is paid in the right way

　　D. is paid attention to

　　30. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?

　　A. He doesn’t feel that he is well educated.

　　B. He doesn’t think he is a very important person.

　　C. He doesn’t consider himself to be very successful.

　　D. He doesn’t think that being rich deserves so much attention.
