第三部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
（A）
Mr Bean is an internationally recognized comedy character on TV and in films. He constantly gets into awkward and absurd situations，which greatly amuse audiences regardless of their nationality or culture. The humor is always made clear through a series of simple and funny acts that rely purely on body language，which is universal.
One of my favorite shows is Mr Bean in a fancy restaurant. After being seated at his table，Mr Bean takes out a card，writes a few words on it，seals （密封） it in an envelope and places it on the table. After a moment，he looks back at the envelope but this time he looks surprised，as if he did not know it was there. He opens it to find a birthday card and delightedly puts it on the table for everyone to see.
When he looks at the menu，an astonished look swiftly appears on his face. He takes all the money out of his wallet，counts it and puts it in a saucer. He then looks from the menu to the money with concern until he finds one thing that makes him smile. Then he orders a dish called “steak tartare”．When the dish arrives，he is shocked to discover that “steak tartare” is actually raw hamburger. He makes an attempt to eat it，but it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting. He cannot hide his feelings，except when the waiters ask if everything is all right. When this happens，he smiles and nods，indicating that everything is fine. When the waiters are not looking，however，he busies himself hiding the raw meat anywhere he can reach—the sugar bowl，the tiny flower vase，inside a bun and under a plate. He becomes so desperate （令人绝望的） in the end that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurant’s violinist!
I like to watch Mr Bean on TV but I wouldn’t want to meet someone like him in real life and I certainly wouldn’t want to have dinner with him!
56. Why is Mr Bean famous all over the world
A. He often eats in a special restaurant.
B. He entertains the audience from different countries.
C. He only acts on TV.
D. He acts on body language and spoken language.
57. What does the underlined word “disgusting” mean
A. tasting delicious B. smelling good
C. feeling sick D. looking fine
58. Why did Mr Bean pretend to smile in front of the waiters
A. He didn’t want the waiters embarrassed.
B. He was a fool and in low spirits.
C. He likes to express himself in the opposite way.
D. He thought the waiters enjoying smiling.
（B）
Electric cars are dirty. In fact, not only are they dirty, they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins.
People in California love to talk about “zero-emissions vehicles”, but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants mostly use fire to make it. Aside from the new folks who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity from generators. Generators are fueled by something—usually coal, oil, but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms and geothermal plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.
In other words, those “zero-emissions” cars are likely coal-burning cars. It’s just because the coal is burned somewhere else that it looks clean. It is not. It’s as if the California Greens are covering their eyes—“If I can’t see it, it’s not happening. ” Gasoline is an incredibly efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But when you take that gas （or another fuel） and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat—at the generator, through the transmission lines, etc. .
A gallon of gas may propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won’t get you nearly as far—so electric cars burn more fuel than gas-powered ones. If our electricity came mostly from nukes, or geothermal, or hydro, or solar, or wind, then an electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, we don’t use much of those energy sources.
In addition, electric cars’ batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill. And finally, When cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. When it’s a power plant, though, all the junk is in one place. Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.
59. What does “clueless” mean in paragraph 2
A. People are seeing the California Greens everywhere.
B. People in California love to talk about zero-emissions vehicles.
C. People in California love to have their roofs covered with solar cells.
D. People there have no idea that so far electricity mainly comes from burning coal, oil, etc. .
60. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Electric cars are not clean at all.
B. Electric cars are better than gasoline-powered ones.
C. People cast doubts on electric cars’ batteries.
D. Gasoline is an efficient way to power a vehicle.
61. According to the passage, electric cars _______ .
A. do not burn fuel and are more environment-friendly
B. are poisonous because it is difficult for nature to clean the garbage up when their batteries are buried in one spot
C. are very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated
D. are poisonous for a long time and will eventually end up in a landfill
62. It can be inferred from the passage that _______ .
A. being green is good and should be encouraged in communication
B. electric cars are not clean in that we get electricity mainly by burning something
C. zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment
D. electric cars are now the dominant vehicle compared with gasoline-powered cousins

More and more people are coming under the umbrella off fatness in modern times. Not just adults，but even children are getting overweight. Today some of the newborn babies are also born fat. It has been proved that the people living in the western developed countries are more likely to become overweight. There are a number of causes behind this.
The people in the developed countries including the United States almost enjoy all the comforts of life. Almost all the things in the lives of the people living in these countries are at their finger tips. A very limited amount of movement and physical effort is required to do any kind of job. Because of the fact that these countries are quite developed，most of the jobs that the people take up are desk jobs. So the lifestyle of them is just around the office desk.
Most of the western developed countries are cold ones. Nature demands that people eat the kinds of food that can somehow make them stand the coldness. Therefore，wine，fatty dairy products，bread，junk food，and red meat become important diets in these countries.
However，the blame cannot be entirely put on the unhealthy eating habits of the people. Technology allows them to import （进口） almost all the food products that they do not grow. Although some healthy foods are grown in the countries nowadays，the quantity （数量） is very limited. It is not enough to meet the demand. So when they are not available and fatty foods are cheaper，then people prefer to go for the eating habit that they have always been following.
63. According to Paragraph 2，most people in the developed countries do ______ jobs.
A. physical B. management
C. desk D. tiring
64. According to the text，the ________ plays a key role in the fatness in the western developed countries.
A. culture B. gene （基因）
C. education D. weather
65. The purpose of the author in writing the text is to _________.
A. warn us of our bad eating habits in the developed countries
B. remind us of the relation between food and weight gain
C. inform us of the causes of weight gain in the developed countries
D. tell us that fatness in the developed countries is natural
66. People in the developed countries often __________.
A. carry umbrellas with them
B. blame the fatness on the weather
C. grow a lot of healthy foods in their countries
D. eat to protect themselves from the coldness
（D）
LONDON （Reuters）—Quiet please—Britain’ s Queen Elizabeth is preparing to have her swans counted.
Buckingham Palace has announced that the annual Swan Upping, a tradition dating back to the 12th century which involves a census of the swan population on the River Thames, will be conducted by the Queen’ s official Swan Marker from July 2024.
“With the assistance of the Queen’ s Swan Warden, Professor Christopher Perrins of the University of Oxford, the swans and young cygnets （小天鹅） are also assessed for any signs of injury or disease，” Buckingham Palace said in announcing the count.
The process involves the Swan Marker, David Barber, rowing up the Thames for five days with the Swan Warden in traditional skiffs while wearing special scarlet uniforms and counting, weighing and measuring swans and cygnets.
It may seem eccentric, but it is very important to the Queen. According to custom, Britain’ s sovereign owns all unmarked, mute swans in open water, but the Queen now exercises the right only on stretches of the Thames and its nearby tributaries.
In medieval times, the Swan Marker would not only travel up the river counting the swans, but would catch as many as possible as they were sought after for banquets and feasts.
This year, the Swan Marker and the Swan Warden are particularly keen to discover how much damage is being caused to swans and cygnets by attacks from dogs and from discarded fishing tackle （渔具）．
It is also an important year because Queen Elizabeth has decided to join her team of Swan Uppers for part of the census. She will follow them up the river and visit a local school project on the whole subject of swans, cygnets and the Thames.
“Education and conservation are essential to the role of Swan Upping and the involvement of school children is always a rewarding experience，” Buckingham Palace said.
67．We can infer from the passage that the process of counting the swans ______.
A. remains almost unchanged in the past years
B. involves a lot of royal members
C. sometimes lasts longer than before
D. is always guarded by special soldiers
68．This year, the Swan Marker and the Swan Warden mainly want to find out _______.
A. the exact number of swans and cygnets
B. how a local school project is going on
C. how much damage the swans and cygnets suffer
D. how education and conservation are carried out along the Thames
69．Which of the following is the main idea of the passage
A. Britain’ s Queen is concerned about swans.
B. Britain’ s Queen orders a count of swans.
C. An old tradition in Buckingham Palace.
D. Queen Elizabeth will count swans herself.
70．The underlined word “tributaries” can be best replaced by ________ .
A. districts B. banks
C. trees D. branches

Today we begin a series of programs about learning disabilities. These are disorders in the ways that people understand or use language. They can affect the ability to listen or think, or to speak or to read and write. They can also affect the ability to do mathematics. 71 Researchers believe that learning disabilities are caused by differences in the way that the brain works with information. They say children with learning disabilities are not unintelligent or do not want to work. 72 Researchers say that as many as one out of every five people in the United States has some kind of learning disability. Almost three-million children in the United States receive some kind of help in school for a learning disability.
73 Experts look for a difference between how well a child does in school and the level of intelligence or ability of the child. But there is no one sign of a disorder. A few signs of learning disability include not connecting letters with their sounds or not understanding what is read. A person with a learning disability may not be able to understand a funny story. They may not follow directions. They may not read numbers correctly or know how to start a task. 74 One person may have trouble understanding mathematics. Another may have difficulty in understanding what people are saying. Still another may not be able to express ideas in writing. These different kinds of learning disabilities are known by different names. For example, a person who has difficulty in reading may have dyslexia （诵读困难症）.
Experts say learning disabilities cannot be cured. 75 Teachers and parents can help young people with learning disabilities to learn successfully.
A. Different people have different kinds of learning disabilities.
B. Their brains just process information differently from other people.
C. People with learning disabilities have difficulty in communicating with others.
D. But people who have them can be helped.
E. Why does a person have a learning disability
F. A person with a learning disability has unusual difficulty in developing these skills.
G. How can you tell if someone has a learning disability

【参考范文】
With the popularity of English and the Internet, some people like to use English words in Chinese expressions. For example, they use the word “hold” to mean “to control or be able to deal with”, and “out” to mean “out of date, not fashionable”.
As we all know, every coin has two sides, and the positive side of this phenomenon is that much fun can be felt sometimes when English words are directly put in Chinese expressions. However, this phenomenon also has a negative effect on the proper use of standard Chinese. It shows that the western culture is gradually influencing our life.
Personally, I don’t appreciate this fashion because keeping Chinese pure is beyond any fashion.

第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
（A）
Mr Bean is an internationally recognized comedy character on TV and in films. He constantly gets into awkward and absurd situations，which greatly amuse audiences regardless of their nationality or culture. The humor is always made clear through a series of simple and funny acts that rely purely on body language，which is universal.
One of my favorite shows is Mr Bean in a fancy restaurant. After being seated at his table，Mr Bean takes out a card，writes a few words on it，seals （密封） it in an envelope and places it on the table. After a moment，he looks back at the envelope but this time he looks surprised，as if he did not know it was there. He opens it to find a birthday card and delightedly puts it on the table for everyone to see.
When he looks at the menu，an astonished look swiftly appears on his face. He takes all the money out of his wallet，counts it and puts it in a saucer. He then looks from the menu to the money with concern until he finds one thing that makes him smile. Then he orders a dish called “steak tartare”．When the dish arrives，he is shocked to discover that “steak tartare” is actually raw hamburger. He makes an attempt to eat it，but it is clear from the look on his face that he finds the taste truly disgusting. He cannot hide his feelings，except when the waiters ask if everything is all right. When this happens，he smiles and nods，indicating that everything is fine. When the waiters are not looking，however，he busies himself hiding the raw meat anywhere he can reach—the sugar bowl，the tiny flower vase，inside a bun and under a plate. He becomes so desperate （令人绝望的） in the end that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurant’s violinist!
I like to watch Mr Bean on TV but I wouldn’t want to meet someone like him in real life and I certainly wouldn’t want to have dinner with him!
56. Why is Mr Bean famous all over the world
A. He often eats in a special restaurant.
B. He entertains the audience from different countries.
C. He only acts on TV.
D. He acts on body language and spoken language.
57. What does the underlined word “disgusting” mean
A. tasting delicious B. smelling good
C. feeling sick D. looking fine
58. Why did Mr Bean pretend to smile in front of the waiters
A. He didn’t want the waiters embarrassed.
B. He was a fool and in low spirits.
C. He likes to express himself in the opposite way.
D. He thought the waiters enjoying smiling.
（B）
Electric cars are dirty. In fact, not only are they dirty, they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins.
People in California love to talk about “zero-emissions vehicles”, but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants mostly use fire to make it. Aside from the new folks who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity from generators. Generators are fueled by something—usually coal, oil, but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms and geothermal plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.
In other words, those “zero-emissions” cars are likely coal-burning cars. It’s just because the coal is burned somewhere else that it looks clean. It is not. It’s as if the California Greens are covering their eyes—“If I can’t see it, it’s not happening. ” Gasoline is an incredibly efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But when you take that gas （or another fuel） and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat—at the generator, through the transmission lines, etc. .
A gallon of gas may propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won’t get you nearly as far—so electric cars burn more fuel than gas-powered ones. If our electricity came mostly from nukes, or geothermal, or hydro, or solar, or wind, then an electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, we don’t use much of those energy sources.
In addition, electric cars’ batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill. And finally, When cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. When it’s a power plant, though, all the junk is in one place. Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.
59. What does “clueless” mean in paragraph 2
A. People are seeing the California Greens everywhere.
B. People in California love to talk about zero-emissions vehicles.
C. People in California love to have their roofs covered with solar cells.
D. People there have no idea that so far electricity mainly comes from burning coal, oil, etc. .
60. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Electric cars are not clean at all.
B. Electric cars are better than gasoline-powered ones.
C. People cast doubts on electric cars’ batteries.
D. Gasoline is an efficient way to power a vehicle.
61. According to the passage, electric cars _______ .
A. do not burn fuel and are more environment-friendly
B. are poisonous because it is difficult for nature to clean the garbage up when their batteries are buried in one spot
C. are very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated
D. are poisonous for a long time and will eventually end up in a landfill
62. It can be inferred from the passage that _______ .
A. being green is good and should be encouraged in communication
B. electric cars are not clean in that we get electricity mainly by burning something
C. zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment
D. electric cars are now the dominant vehicle compared with gasoline-powered cousins

More and more people are coming under the umbrella off fatness in modern times. Not just adults，but even children are getting overweight. Today some of the newborn babies are also born fat. It has been proved that the people living in the western developed countries are more likely to become overweight. There are a number of causes behind this.
The people in the developed countries including the United States almost enjoy all the comforts of life. Almost all the things in the lives of the people living in these countries are at their finger tips. A very limited amount of movement and physical effort is required to do any kind of job. Because of the fact that these countries are quite developed，most of the jobs that the people take up are desk jobs. So the lifestyle of them is just around the office desk.
Most of the western developed countries are cold ones. Nature demands that people eat the kinds of food that can somehow make them stand the coldness. Therefore，wine，fatty dairy products，bread，junk food，and red meat become important diets in these countries.
However，the blame cannot be entirely put on the unhealthy eating habits of the people. Technology allows them to import （进口） almost all the food products that they do not grow. Although some healthy foods are grown in the countries nowadays，the quantity （数量） is very limited. It is not enough to meet the demand. So when they are not available and fatty foods are cheaper，then people prefer to go for the eating habit that they have always been following.
63. According to Paragraph 2，most people in the developed countries do ______ jobs.
A. physical B. management
C. desk D. tiring
64. According to the text，the ________ plays a key role in the fatness in the western developed countries.
A. culture B. gene （基因）
C. education D. weather
65. The purpose of the author in writing the text is to _________.
A. warn us of our bad eating habits in the developed countries
B. remind us of the relation between food and weight gain
C. inform us of the causes of weight gain in the developed countries
D. tell us that fatness in the developed countries is natural
66. People in the developed countries often __________.
A. carry umbrellas with them
B. blame the fatness on the weather
C. grow a lot of healthy foods in their countries
D. eat to protect themselves from the coldness
（D）
LONDON （Reuters）—Quiet please—Britain’ s Queen Elizabeth is preparing to have her swans counted.
Buckingham Palace has announced that the annual Swan Upping, a tradition dating back to the 12th century which involves a census of the swan population on the River Thames, will be conducted by the Queen’ s official Swan Marker from July 2024.
“With the assistance of the Queen’ s Swan Warden, Professor Christopher Perrins of the University of Oxford, the swans and young cygnets （小天鹅） are also assessed for any signs of injury or disease，” Buckingham Palace said in announcing the count.
The process involves the Swan Marker, David Barber, rowing up the Thames for five days with the Swan Warden in traditional skiffs while wearing special scarlet uniforms and counting, weighing and measuring swans and cygnets.
It may seem eccentric, but it is very important to the Queen. According to custom, Britain’ s sovereign owns all unmarked, mute swans in open water, but the Queen now exercises the right only on stretches of the Thames and its nearby tributaries.
In medieval times, the Swan Marker would not only travel up the river counting the swans, but would catch as many as possible as they were sought after for banquets and feasts.
This year, the Swan Marker and the Swan Warden are particularly keen to discover how much damage is being caused to swans and cygnets by attacks from dogs and from discarded fishing tackle （渔具）．
It is also an important year because Queen Elizabeth has decided to join her team of Swan Uppers for part of the census. She will follow them up the river and visit a local school project on the whole subject of swans, cygnets and the Thames.
“Education and conservation are essential to the role of Swan Upping and the involvement of school children is always a rewarding experience，” Buckingham Palace said.
67．We can infer from the passage that the process of counting the swans ______.
A. remains almost unchanged in the past years
B. involves a lot of royal members
C. sometimes lasts longer than before
D. is always guarded by special soldiers
68．This year, the Swan Marker and the Swan Warden mainly want to find out _______.
A. the exact number of swans and cygnets
B. how a local school project is going on
C. how much damage the swans and cygnets suffer
D. how education and conservation are carried out along the Thames
69．Which of the following is the main idea of the passage
A. Britain’ s Queen is concerned about swans.
B. Britain’ s Queen orders a count of swans.
C. An old tradition in Buckingham Palace.
D. Queen Elizabeth will count swans herself.
70．The underlined word “tributaries” can be best replaced by ________ .
A. districts B. banks
C. trees D. branches

Today we begin a series of programs about learning disabilities. These are disorders in the ways that people understand or use language. They can affect the ability to listen or think, or to speak or to read and write. They can also affect the ability to do mathematics. 71 Researchers believe that learning disabilities are caused by differences in the way that the brain works with information. They say children with learning disabilities are not unintelligent or do not want to work. 72 Researchers say that as many as one out of every five people in the United States has some kind of learning disability. Almost three-million children in the United States receive some kind of help in school for a learning disability.
73 Experts look for a difference between how well a child does in school and the level of intelligence or ability of the child. But there is no one sign of a disorder. A few signs of learning disability include not connecting letters with their sounds or not understanding what is read. A person with a learning disability may not be able to understand a funny story. They may not follow directions. They may not read numbers correctly or know how to start a task. 74 One person may have trouble understanding mathematics. Another may have difficulty in understanding what people are saying. Still another may not be able to express ideas in writing. These different kinds of learning disabilities are known by different names. For example, a person who has difficulty in reading may have dyslexia （诵读困难症）.
Experts say learning disabilities cannot be cured. 75 Teachers and parents can help young people with learning disabilities to learn successfully.
A. Different people have different kinds of learning disabilities.
B. Their brains just process information differently from other people.
C. People with learning disabilities have difficulty in communicating with others.
D. But people who have them can be helped.
E. Why does a person have a learning disability
F. A person with a learning disability has unusual difficulty in developing these skills.
G. How can you tell if someone has a learning disability

1. 【解析】第二句中把but去掉。考查连词的用法。英语中though和but不能连用，此句中前面已有though，就不能再有but，但是可以用yet。
2. 【解析】第三句中在find后添加it。考查代词的用法。本句中find真正的宾语为to go anywhere with a bike, 所以find后必须添加形式宾语it 。
3. 【解析】第四句中把give改为gives。考查主谓一致。此句中主语为riding，动名词作主语谓语动词用单数。
4. 【解析】第五句中把almost改为mostly。almost几乎，差不多。mostly主要地，通常。此句句意：我多半是在夏天骑自行车。应该用mostly。
5. 【解析】第六句中去掉winter前的the。考查冠词的用法。在一年四季前不加冠词，故删掉冠词the。
6. 【解析】第六句中把pour改为pouring。考查动词的用法。is后面不可能添加动词原形，此处为现在进行时态，故改成pouring。
7. 【解析】第八句中把carefully改为careful。考查形容词副词辨析。小心为be careful，要用形容词。
8. 【解析】第十句中把by改为on。考查介词辨析。骑自行车by bike，名词前不能加任何冠词或限定词，此处有限定词my mother’s，故要用on。
9. 【解析】第十句中把come改为came。考查动词的时态。根据前后文可知此处应该用过去时。
10. 【解析】第十一句中把lock改为locks。考查名词的数。lock为可数名词，前面用了数词two，故lock要用其复数形式。

【参考范文】
With the popularity of English and the Internet, some people like to use English words in Chinese expressions. For example, they use the word “hold” to mean “to control or be able to deal with”, and “out” to mean “out of date, not fashionable”.
As we all know, every coin has two sides, and the positive side of this phenomenon is that much fun can be felt sometimes when English words are directly put in Chinese expressions. However, this phenomenon also has a negative effect on the proper use of standard Chinese. It shows that the western culture is gradually influencing our life.
Personally, I don’t appreciate this fashion because keeping Chinese pure is beyond any fashion.
