Ⅲ.阅读理解(每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下面的文章，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。
A(2007·全国卷Ⅰ)
Today about 70 countries use Daylight Saving Time(DST). Daylight Saving was first introduced during World War I in Australia. During the world wars, DST was used for the late summers beginning January 1917 and1942, and the full summers beginning September 1942 and 1943.
In 1967, Tasmania experienced a drought(干旱). The State Government introduced one hour of daylight saving that summer as a way of saving power and water. Tasmanians liked the idea of daylight saving and the Tasmanian Government has declared daylight saving each summer since 1968. Persuaded by the Tasmanian Government, all states except two passed a law in 1971, for a test use of daylight saving. In 1972, New South Wales, South Australia and Victoria joined Tasmania for regular daylight saving, but Queensland did not do so until 1989.
Tasmania, Queensland and South Australia have had irregular plans, often changing their dates due to politics or festivals(节日). For example, in 1992, Tasmania extended(延长) daylight saving by an extra month while South Australia began extending daylight saving by two weeks for the Adelaide Festival. Special daylight saving plans were made during the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.
The differences in daylight saving in Australia continue to cause serious problems in transport and many other social activities. It also reduces the number of hours in the working day that are common to all centers in the country. In particular, time differences along the east coast cause major difficulties, especially for the broadcasters of national radio and television.
文章大意：夏令时，又称“日光节约时制”(Daylight Saving Time)，是一种为节约能源而人为规定地方时间的制度，在这一制度实行期间所采用的统一时间称为“夏令时”。一般在天亮早的夏季人为将时间提前一小时，可以使人早起早睡，减少照明量，以充分利用光照资源，从而节约照明用电。各个采纳夏时制的国家具体规定不同。目前全世界有近110个国家每年要实行夏令时。
36. Daylight Saving Time was introduced in Tasmania________.
A. to save water and electricity
B. to support government officials
C. to pass a special law in the state
D. to stop the drought in 1967
答案：A 第二段第二句“The state government introduced one hour of daylight saving as a way of saving power and water.”作为节约能量和水的一种方式。
37．According to the text, which state was the last to use DST?
A．Victoria.
B．Queensland.
C．South Australia.
D．New South Wales.
答案：B 第二段最后一句。Queensland did not do so until 1989。
38．What can we learn about DST in some Australian states?
A．It lasts for two weeks.
B．It is not used in festivals.
C．Its plan was changed in 2000.
D．It doesn't have fixed dates.
答案：D 第三段“Tasmania, Queensland and South Australia have irregular(不规则的) plans, often changing their dates due to (由于)politics or festivals.”可以看出夏令时在澳大利亚时间并不固定。
39. What do we know about the use of DST from the last paragraph?
A．There exist some undesirable effects.
B．It helps little to save energy.
C．It brings about longer working days.
D．Radio and TV programs become different.
答案：A 文章最后一段在讲解夏令时在澳大利亚的不同引起了很严重的交通和社会活动的问题。 所以答案为A “存在着一些undesirable(令人不快)的后果”。B little 用的不对。C工作时间应该是减少了。D 表述不对。 并不是说广播和电视节目不同而是说，由于夏令时的政策地区与地区不同，所以导致了国家广播和电视的播放上的混乱。
B(2005·江苏卷)
The Sahara Festival is a celebration of the very recent past. The three-day event is not fixed to the same dates each year, but generally takes place in November or December. It is well attended by tourists, but even better attended by locals.
During the opening ceremonies, after the official greetings from the government leaders, people who attend the festival begin to march smartly before the viewing stands, and white camels transport their riders across the sands. Horsemen from different nations display their beautiful clothes and their fine horsemanship. One following another, groups of musicians and dancers from all over the Sahara take their turn to show off their wonderful traditional culture. Groups of men in blue and yellow play horns and beat drums as they dance in different designs. On their knees in the sand, a group of women in long dark dresses dance with their hair: their long, dark, shiny hair is thrown back and forth in the wind to the rhythm of their dance.
The local and visiting Italian dogs are anxious to run after hares. The crowd is on its feet for the camel races. Camels and riders run far into the distance, and then return to the finish Line in front of the cheering people.
Towards the evening, there comes the grand finale of the opening day, an extremely exciting horserace. All the riders run very fast on horseback. Some riders hang off the side of their saddles. Some even ride upside down —— their legs and feet straight up in the air —— all at full speed. Others rush down the course together, men arm in arm, on different horses. On and on they went. So fast and so wonderful!
40. The Sahara Festival is a festival which________.
A. has a very long history in North Africa
B. is held in the same place on the same day
C. is attended mainly by the people in the Sahara
D. is celebrated mostly by travelers from different countries

A. first part B. middle
C. last part D. whole
答案：C 词义猜测题。根据前面的叙述和该句中的towards the evening, 说明是开幕式的最后了，所以C正确。
43. This passage mainly tells readers________.
A．what happens on the opening day of the Sahara Festival
B．how people celebrate during the three-day Sahara Festival
C．what takes place at the closing ceremonies of the Sahara Festival
D．how animals race on the first and the last days of the Sahara Festival
答案：A 主旨大意题。从文中第二段第一句话“During the opening ceremonies，”可以看出，本文主要是介绍“撒哈拉节”开幕式上的活动。答案选A。
C
(2008·全国Ⅱ)
There was a story many years ago of a school teacher—Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn't play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him.
Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother's perfume(香水)．
Teddy said, “Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.”After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children.
Mrs. Thomspon paid particular attention to Teddy. The boy's mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved. By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class.
Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy. He wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life. He went to college. Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed, Theodore F. Stoddard, M．D.(医学博士)．
The story doesn't end there. On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson's ear, “Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me. You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.”
Mrs. Thomspon, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn't know how to teach until I met you.”

(浙江余姚中学2008学年高一英语期中试卷)
This Friday is Tomb-sweeping Day, one of the three traditional festivals that are included as the Chinese mainland's public holidays starting this year. Together with the Dragon Boat Festival in June and Mid-Autumn Festival in September, the authorities say observing these days is aimed at protecting folk culture and customs.
Chinese nationwide should thank Chen Jing, a 68-year-old folk artist and professor from Nanjing University for the move. “It is certainly a favorable gesture for the promotion and preservation of folk culture and customs，” Chen said. In 2006, Chen proposed to the authorities to make Tomb-Sweeping Day, also known as Qingming Festival, a public holiday. His suggestion received wide support from other folk artists. “Tomb-Sweeping Day means a lot to the Chinese，” Chen said. It is a day for people to honour their ancestors.
Two years ago, on his trip to honour his ancestor in Taizhou, Jiangsu province, he found the train full of people, most of whom were the elderly. From the conversation with them, he found the elderly thought it necessary to include young family members in the festival's activities, while working people also wanted the chance to honor their ancestors. Among those he spoke to was an elderly man from Hongkong, who told Chen Tomb-Sweeping Day is a holiday in Hongkong for paying tribute to ancestors. Chen was inspired by the experience and insight from these people and put forward the suggestion for the holiday during an interview by mainstream media.
“If we do not take immediate action, our traditional folk customs will be forgotten by the younger generation，” he said. His idea soon spread all over the country and was echoed(回音) by many scholars and experts.
文章大意：本文讲述了南京大学陈静教授为清明节被纳入国家法定节日所作的贡献。
48. What does the underlined word “tribute” mean?
A．Paper money. B．Flowers.
C．Respect. D．Incense.
答案：C 猜测词义题。所在句意为“清明节是香港人们敬老的一个节日”。所以该词意为“respect”。
49．Why do the elderly think it is important to make Tomb-Sweeping Day a public holiday?
A．Because they want to honor their ancestors.
B．Because it can make young people and working people be included in the festival's activities.
C．Because it can make people have a chance to honor their ancestors.
D．Because they think it is important traditional folk custom.
答案：B 细节理解题。由第三段第一句话可知。
50. The best title of the passage is ________.
A．How people observe Tomb-Sweeping Day
B．The aim of protecting folk culture and custom
C．Tomb-Sweeping Day, a traditional Chinese festival
D．One man's mission to help keep a traditional custom alive
答案：D 主旨大意题。由文章大意知。

Young adult filmmakers all hope to show their works in international festivals like Sundance and Toronto. But what about really young filmmakers who aren't in film school yet and aren't, strictly speaking, even adults?
They are at the heart of Wingspan Arts Kids Film Festival, tomorrow, in a setting any director might envy: Lincoln Center. Complete with“red carpet”interviews and various awards, the festival has much in common with events for more experienced moviemakers, except for the age of the participants: about 8 to 18.
“What's really exciting is that it's film for kids by kids，”said Cori Gardner, managing director of Wingspan Arts, a nonprofit organization offering youth arts programs in the New York area. This year the festival will include films not only from Wingspan but also from other city organizations and one from a middle school in Arlington, Virginia.“We want to make this a national event，”Ms. Gardner added.
The nine shorts to be shown range from a Claymation biography of B．B. King to a science fiction adventure set in the year 3005. “A lot of the material is really mature，”Ms. Gardoner said, talking about films by the New York City branch of Global Action Project, a media arts and leadership-training group. “The Choice is about the history of a family and Master Anti-Smoker is about the dangers of secondhand smoke. Dream of the Invisibles describes young immigrants'(移民)feelings of both belonging and not belonging in their adopted country.”
The festival will end with an open reception at which other films will be shown. These include a music video and a full-length film whose title is Pressures.

The First Day in the Summer Holiday
It was the first day of the summer holiday, but Dingding wasn't happy. In the morning, his mother woke him up early and wanted to take him to a make-up school. At almost the same time, his father came in, telling him to sign up for an English training course. Dingding was a football fan and was crazy for cartoon films, yet neither of his parents would like him to develop his own interest. What they only care about seems to be his study.
It's not only Dingding who has to face such a holiday. Nowadays, children in China are burdened with so much homework and so many training courses that they can hardly enjoy their holidays. It's time that parents “returned” holidays to their children.

Ⅲ. 阅读理解(每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下面的文章，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。
A
Sweet potatoes are fat-free, high in fiber and full of the vitamins that research suggests reduce your risk of life-shortening diseases. To stay healthy，we must eat more fruits and vegetables, and sweet potatoes are a great source of beta carotene (胡萝卜素) and other carotenoids. According to a study of the diets of almost 90 000 nurses, eating about one cup a day of fruits and vegetables rich in carotenoids (which the body turns into vitamin A) can cut your risk of stroke in half and reduce your risk of heart disease by 22 percent. Other research suggests beta carotene protects against breast, lung and stomach cancers.
Beta carotene is the most famous member of the carotenoids family. In fact，a medium sized sweet potato contains nearly 12 mg of beta carotene (anti-aging experts usually suggest 6 to 11 mg per day). Sweet potatoes are also a low-fat source of vitamin E. Research has linked high E diets with a lower risk of heart disease. This vitamin pill in an orange jacket also packs a vitamin C punch-it has more C than apricots (a kind of fruit). Research suggests that vitamin C protects against ailments ranging from cataracts (an eye disease) to cancer.In addition, a UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) study linked high vitamin C diets with a longer life. Recent studies have showed that antioxidant vitamins C, E and beta carotene fight a fierce battle against free radicals (自由基), which cause cell (细胞) damage and lead to various illnesses. Therefore, to keep fit, eat more sweet potatoes.
36．According to the text, there exists a lot of________in sweet potatoes.
A．fiber, beta carotene, other carotenoids, vitamin E and C
B．beta carotene, other carotenoids, fiber, vitamin A and E
C．vitamin A, beta carotene, fiber, vitamin E and C
D．beta carotene, other carotenoids, vitamin A and E
答案：A 由短文开头部分的“high in fiber and full of the vitamins... a great source of beta carotene (胡萝卜素) and other carotenoids”等可知山芋富含纤维、维他命、胡萝卜素和类胡萝卜素。
37．This text as a whole suggests that eating sweet potatoes can help ________.
A．cut your risk of stroke and heart disease
B．protect against breast, lung and stomach cancers
C．protect against ailments ranging from cataracts to cancer
D．you stay healthy and reduce your risk of life-shortening diseases
答案：D 据短文最后一句话“to keep fit, eat more sweet potatoes”可知吃山芋可以保持身体健康。
38. “This vitamin pill in an orange jacket” in the passage refers to ________.
A. sweet potato B. vitamin C pill
C. vitamin E pill D. beta carotene
答案：A 本文主要介绍的是山芋，通过上下文也能够确定“This vitamin pill in an orange jacket”指的是山芋。
39. The best title of this passage might be ________.

A new study shows that fat people in the United States suffer direct economic and social effects because of their size. The findings are from an 8-year study of about 100,000 people. The people who were studied were between the age of 18 and 24 when the research began.
The researchers who carried out the study say they consider the people fat if they are in the top of 5% of the measurement in which weight is linked to height. For example, fat women in the study were about 160 centimeters tall and weighed about 90 kilograms. Fat men in the study were about 175 centimeters tall and weighed 100 kilograms. The researchers say that more than 1,000,000 Americans are that big. The researchers found that fat young women were from wealthy families. The fat women also were 20% less likely to get married and they earned an average of about $6,700 a year less than other women. The study showed less severe effects on fat men. They earned an average of about $3,000 a year less than other men. Fat men also were 11% less likely to get married.
40. The passage mainly tells us________.
A. the standards of fat people
B. the number of fat Americans
C. fat people have fewer advantages
D. how long is the study
答案：C 主旨大意题。由第一段第一句话“...fat people in the United States suffer direct economic and social effects because of their size.”可知，研究发现在美国肥胖者在各方面都处于劣势。所以选C项。
41．From this study we know fat people in America ________.
A. were respected
B. earned less
C. were more likely to get married
D. earned more
答案：B 细节理解题。由第二段倒数第二句话“They earned an average of about $3,000 a year less than other men.”可知，在美国肥胖者经济直接受到影响，所以他们挣得很少。
42. The underlined word “severe” here means________.
A. economic B. social
C. good D. serious
答案：D 猜测词义题。通过severe在句中作程度状语和语境可推测出severe意思是“serious”。再通过上下文验证其意思。
43. The researchers consider the people fat if ________.
A．they eat lots of food and do less exercise
B．they are fatter than others
C．they are in the top of 5% of the measurement of weight
D．they are in the top of 5% of the measurement in which weight is linked to height.
答案：D 细节理解题。由第二段第一句话“...if they are in the top of 5% of the measurement in which weight is linked to height.”可知。
C
We all have to eat, but choosing the right foods can be hard. Many people also have trouble controlling how much they eat.
Instead of eating a reasonable quantity of fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and other healthy foods, lots of people eat too many hamburgers, cookies and chips. Many people just eat too much food in general.
One result is the spread of obesity,_which has enlarged the waistlines of millions of adults and kids. The increase in obesity has led to an increase in the number of people with diabetes(糖尿病), heart disease, cancer and other diseases.
But for many other people, food has become their enemy. They worry so much about getting fat that they either severely limit what they eat or make themselves throw up right after eating. Doctors say that these people have eating disorders.
Eating disorders among teens are far less common than obesity, yet the health problems of eating disorders can be just as serious as obesity.
Not eating enough can lead to heart attacks, weak bones, organ damage and fainting spells. Repeatedly throwing up causes chemical imbalances in the body, makes your teeth weak and destroys stomach lining (胃粘膜)．
Researchers are doing research on what causes certain people to develop eating disorders, why some people are more in danger than others, and what kind of education programs work best to prevent people from doing dangerous things to lose weight to stay slim.
“It's important to learn how to recognize signs of eating disorders in yourself, your family members and your friends，” a doctor says, “because research shows that getting treatment early is the key to a quick recovery.”
44. This passage mainly talks about________.
A．why some people eat too much food
B．how people limit the food they eat
C．the problems that people have with eating
D．how eating disorders lead to many diseases

45. The underlined word in the third paragraph probably means “________”．
A. being too fat B. being too thin
C. being too worried D. being too old
答案：A 猜测词义题。由划线词后的从句“...enlarged the waistlines(腰围增大)”可推知，该词是“肥胖”之意。
46. The purpose of writing this passage is to________.
A．let people realize the importance of healthy eating
B．tell people what they should eat
C．draw people's attention to keeping fit
D．warn people not to eat too much
答案：D 推理判断题。由第二段可知，全文主要告诉我们不要吃得太多。
47. According to the doctor, what is the most important thing for the early treatment of eating disorders?
A. Getting a quick recovery.
B. Knowing signs of eating disorders.
C. Controlling what people eat.
D. Knowing the reasons for eating disorders.
答案：B 推理判断题。由最后一段“It's important to learn how to recognize signs of eating disorders in yourself, your family members and your friends”可知，知道饮食紊乱症的征兆是最重要的，因为早知道早治疗。
D
A car needs gas to run and your body also needs food to work for you.Eating the right kind of food is very important. It can help your body grow strong to take care of what you eat.

(浙江余姚中学高一英语期中试卷)
If your friend and family get fat, chances are you will, too. Researchers report in a new study that suggests obesity is “socially contagious(传染性的)” and can spread easily from person to person.
The large, federally funded study found that to be true even if your loved ones lived far away. Social ties seemed to play a surprisingly strong role, even more than genes are known to do.
“We were stunned(震惊的) to find that friends who are hundreds of miles away have just as much impact on a person's weight status as friends who are right next door.” Said co-author James Fowler of the University of California, San Diego.
The study found a person's chances of becoming obese went up 57 percent if a friend did, 40 percent if a sibling(兄弟姐妹) did and 37 percent if a spouse(配偶) did.
Researchers think it's more than just people with similar eating and exercise habits hanging out together. Instead, it may be that having relatives and friends who become obese changes one's idea of what is an acceptable weight.
Despite their findings, the researchers said people should not sever(切断) their friendships. “There is a ton of research that suggest that having more friends makes you healthier，” Fowler said.“ So_the_last_thing_that_you_want_to_do_is_get_rid_of_any_of_your_friends.”
The study was published in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine and funded by the National Institute on Aging.
Obesity is a global public health problem. About 1.5 billion adults worldwide are overweight, including more than 400 million who are obese. Two-thirds of Americans are either overweight or obese.
Much of the recent research focus has been on the intense hunt for obesity genes involved in appetite or calorie burning. Treatment has been mainly centered on helping individuals curb(抑制) their weight through better diet and fitness. The findings could open a new avenue for treating this worldwide epidemic. The researchers said it might be helpful to treat obese people in groups instead of just the individual.
文章大意：最新研究发现，肥胖可以传染。
52. Treating obesity at present is mainly by ________.
A．not keeping in touch with your relatives and friends
B．taking some loss-weight pills
C．going on proper diets and having right exercise
D．getting rid of obesity genes involved in appetite or calorie burning
答案：C 细节理解题。由最后一段第二句话“Treatment has been mainly centered on helping individuals curb(抑制) their weight through better diet and fitness.”可知，现在对付肥胖的主要方法是锻炼和控制饮食。
53. According to the new study, obesity is “socially contagious”， which seems to be mainly caused by________.
A. genes B. social ties
C. living conditions D. diets
答案：B 推理判断题。由第五段可知。
54．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 6 mean?
A．It is unwise for us to get rid of any of our friends because of obesity.
B．The best way of preventing obesity is to get rid of any of our friends.
C．If we want to keep fit, we must get rid of some friends.
D．We must make a good choice between obesity and friends.
答案：A 推理判断题。所划线句意为“你最不应该做的就是抛弃你的胖朋友”。句中last意为“最不可能的，最不适当的”。
55. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The new study suggests about 1.5 billion people worldwide are overweight.
B. Gene is one of the factors about obesity.
C. Friendship and obesity are both of great importance.
D. It might be helpful to treat obese people just as the individual instead of in groups.
答案：B 推理判断题。由最后一段第一句话可知，基因是人们肥胖的一个因素。A项不是研究的结果；由第六段可知，朋友是最重要的，所以C项不对；D项与最后一段最后一句话正好相反，故也不对。
Ⅳ.书面表达(满分25分)

C. if D. how
答案：B 根据题干意义“……问题是你是否准备努力学习”，因此选项A、D不符合句子意思；if在名词性从句中仅可以连接宾语从句，不可引导其它名词性从句，故应排除。

Mark Twain left school when he was twelve. He had little school education. In spite of this, he became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, his pen name.
Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother's tender care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all of his friends and neighbours. He didn't like to go to school, and he constantly ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi. He was nearly drowned nine times.
After his father's death in 1847, Mark Twain began to work for a printer, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer, a riverboat pilot and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner. During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full-time writer.
In 1870, Mark Twain got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him a great fortune.
Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments(投资)and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then three of their children passed away.
At the age of 70, his hair was completely white. He bought many white suits and neckties (领带). He wore nothing but white from head to foot until his death on April 21, 1910.

What do literary greats Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Robert Burns have in common? They both lived and wrote in Edinburgh, along with many other big names in the field of literature. This fact helped UNESCO(联合国教科文组织)award the city the title of world's first City of Literature on October 14.
Edinburgh left a lasting impression on Arthur Conan Doyle(1859—1930). Although he was born there he went to school in England but returned home for medical school. After graduating he moved to London and began writing his Sherlock Holmes stories. His inspiration for the character came from one of his professors at university. Holmes' methods were so clever that they actually furthered the advance of the study of criminology(犯罪学)．
Robert Burns(1759—1796)is still regarded as Scotland's national poet, more than 200 years after his death. He is celebrated all over the world through translations of his work and the annual Burns Night supper on his birthday. One of his songs, My Love is Like a Red Red Rose ranks among the finest love songs ever written and Auld Lang Syne(《友谊地久天长》)is sung all around the world.
As one of the first literate societies in Europe, the Scottish Parliament passed the world's first compulsory(义务的)education law in 1496. By the 1790s, almost all Scots could read. Visitors to Scotland often observed that even the lowest members of society had copies of Burns' poems and other books.

C
Mark, a young person, tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there's a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases these people are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You've got to want to write，” I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”
The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year job in the U. S. Coast Guard to become a writer, I had no hopes at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn't even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used typewriter and felt like a real writer.
After a year or so, however, I still hadn't got a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn't going to be one of those people who die wondering “what if”. I would keep putting my dream to the test—even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadow_land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.
文章大意：不少年轻的文学爱好者梦想成为作家。作者以自己的亲身经历告诫他们：“写点东西”与“当作家”是完全不同的两码事，那些成功或出名的作家是通过鲜为人知的艰难跋涉走过来的幸运者。
44．The passage is meant to________.
A. warn young people of the hardship that a successful writer has to experience
B. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer
C. show young people it's unrealistic for writers to seek wealth and fame
D. encourage young people to seek good jobs
答案： A 主旨题。从第二段第一句话“The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded”可得到答案。
45．What can be concluded from the passage?
A. Real writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.
B. A writer's success depends on luck rather than on effort.
C. Famous writers usually live in poverty.
D. The chances for a writer to become successful are small.

46．Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing work?
A．He wasn't able to produce a single book.
B．He hadn't seen a change for the better.
C．He wasn't able to have a rest for a whole year.
D．He found his dream would never come true.
答案：B 语义理解题。从第三段第二句话“It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat”中便知。
47．“Shadow land” in the last sentence refers to________.
A．the wonderland one often dreams about
B．the bright future that one is looking forward to
C．a world that exists only in one's imagination
D．the state of uncertainty before one's final goal is reached

One of the best-known American writers of children's books is Alfred Strong, or Doctor Strong, as he is better known to readers everywhere. Now, an art show called “Doctor Strong From Then to Now” is travelling around the United States. The pictures and drawings show the history of Doctor Strong.
Doctor Strong first became famous almost fifty years ago when his first children's book was published. Since then, he has written forty-five books that have sold more than one hundred million copies around the world.
Doctor Strong's books are known for their easy use of words and colorful, hand-drawn pictures. These drawings bring life to his imaginary creatures. The Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, and hundreds of others.
The San Diego Museum, in California, organized the art show. It included about three hundred Doctor Strong's original drawings and some of his writings.
Most of Doctor Strong's books, although written in a funny way, have serious messages. For example, in Mc Elligot's Pool, he describes the danger of pollution. He discusses the arms race in The Butter Battle Book, written in nineteen eighty-four.
Doctor Strong is almost eighty-four years old now. He says he never planned to write stories just for children. He says he writes stories that interest people of all ages. He says he uses easy words so that everyone, even a child, can understand.

There were times when it was only schoolchildren who felt sick before they got their grades. But now teachers in Germany are scared, too, as they are being graded by their students.
Many teachers are opposed to it. They don't mind being evaluated. But they are upset because the results are then being posted on the Internet and accessible to millions of Internet users. On the website www.spickmich.de during the past four months students have posted evaluations of 100,000 teachers.
The teachers are graded on categories such as “motivated”， “good instruction，” “easy examinations”， or even “sexy.” Many teachers think that their privacy has been violated.
The creators of the website say that the students are only being offered the chance to provide teachers with some feedback about their classroom instruction. Bernd Dicks, who founded the website with three friends, says that the students are largely quite satisfied with their teachers. On a grading scale of one to six, the teachers' average grade is 2.7 and it has been improving lately. He often says the impression is that students are bullying(欺负) their teachers. But there is also bullying of the students by teachers.
“Teachers must also learn to live with criticism，” he added. But still, the website is not totally immune from manipulation(操纵), as one teacher near the northern city of Hanover recently proved. He registered himself on the website as a student and then rated his own teaching colleagues highly. Within a few days, seven of his colleagues were listed in the top 10 rankings of Germany's best teachers.

53．The founders of the website intended to________.
A. get the students to know their teachers better
B. conduct a survey on teachers' performances
C. help the teachers to improve their teaching
D. change the teachers' ways of giving instructions
答案：C 细节理解题。由第四段第一句话“The creators of the website say that the students are only being offered the chance to provide teachers with some feedback about their classroom instruction.”可知，网站的创立者们想帮助老师改进教学。
54．From what the teacher in Hanover did, we can infer________.
A．he intended to help his colleagues
B．there was some disadvantage of the website
C．his colleagues were more popular than him
D．he wanted to know how he was evaluated
答案：B 推理判断题。由第五段第二句话“But still, the website is not totally immune from manipulation(操纵)”可知，该网站有一些需要改进的地方。
55．From the passage we can learn that________.
A. teachers feel upset for their students are bullying them
B. the website is well received by the teachers
C. teachers hope to be graded by their teaching skills
D. teachers have different opinions of the website

【参考范文】
Health is the most important for any of us. In order to stay healthy, we need some common knowledge.
Firstly, pay attention to the diet. We should eat lots of fruit and vegetables, because they are rich in fiber and low in fat. As a proverb says, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” So fruit is good for health. Don't have a lot of food that contains too much fat, such as butter. Meanwhile, sweets should be eaten in proper quantity, because too much sugar does harm to us. Don't drink too much coffee，either.
Secondly, exercise is necessary. Regular exercise can help us keep from getting fat. People who do running every day usually have stronger hearts than who don't.
Finally, form good living habits. We should sleep for about 8 hours at night，and never work too hard. Over work and little sleep will lead to illness. What's more, stay away from cigarettes.
These are the things we should pay attention to so as to stay healthy.

B
The journey to the moon has been the first step towards future exploration in space. The distance between the Moon and Earth is very short indeed when compared with the distances between Earth and the other planets. Mars, the nearest planet to Earth is millions of miles away! Traveling to the planets will be man's next aim. Such travels will be more challenging than the trip to the moon and certainly more adventurous.
Recently, two American spaceships, Vikings 1 and 2, landed on Mars trying to discover whether that planet has any life on it. So far the signs of life on Mars has neither confirmed(确认)nor ruled out, Russians have discovered that the surface of Venus(金星)is so hot that it is almost certain that there is no life there. Also the atmosphere of Venus is extremely dense(稠)and the pressure is nearly a hundred times greater than that of the Earth's atmosphere.
Scientists believe man may find planets which have the same conditions as those we have on earth, but man should realize Earth will be his only home for a long time and begin to love and care for it.
41．According to the passage, traveling to the planets will be________.
A．much easier and even more interesting
B．far more excting and dangerous
C．man's final aim
D．man's first step
答案：B 细节理解题。由文章第一段告诉我们人类向其他行星探索的行动将比去月球探索更加具有挑战性和冒险性。
42．Which of the following is NOT true?
A．Mars is nearer to the earth than the moon.
B．The moon is much nearer to the earth than Mars.
C．Of all the planets, Mars is the nearest to the earth.
D．All planets are much farther to the earth.
答案：A 辨别正误题。由文章第一段第二句告诉我们，地球与其他行星的距离中，月球离地球最近。
43．From the passage, we can guess________.
A．there is life on Mars
B．there is no life on Mars
C．The atmosphere of Mars is not so dense as that of Venus
D．scientists will have little hope to find the answers
答案：C 推理判断题。由文中第二段第二句告诉我们，火星上是否有生命还不能确认，所以A、B排除。根据文章最后一段第一句可知：科学家相信人类能找到像我们地球上生存条件一样的行星。所以可以排除D。
44．Man can live on under the conditions of________.
A．much too hot surface
B．the same pressure as we get on earth
C．normal atmosphere as we have on earth
D．both B and C
答案：D 细节理解题。人在高温高压的表层是无法生存的，但如果有与地球相似的生存环境时，人可以生存。
45．Scientists think we should take care of our earth because________.
A．no other planets are to take the place of the earth
B．everything needed is provided by the earth
C．the only home of man will be the earth for a long time
D．the dream to find another home for man will come true
答案：C 细节理解题。最后一段讲明人类必须保护地球。根据原因在于人类在近期内无法找到能够和地球的生存常规交叉相提并论的星球，所以地球在很长时间内依然是人类赖以生存的家园。
C
Damage to Ozone Layer Gets Worse
In the middle of winter, when snow is falling in many parts of the United States. Scientists have founded the sun this summer. The warning: The sun's summer time rays are more dangerous than once thought.
A team of scientists from 80 nations recently reported to the United Nations that a layer of ozone(臭氧层)in the atmosphere, which protects humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet(紫外的)radiation, will be thinner over the United States this summer. The thinner layer allows more ultraviolet rays from the sun to reach earth. The extra amount of ultraviolet radiation could cause an increase in the number of cases of skin cancer.
Scientists first became concerned about the ozone layer in the mid-1980s when a hole was discovered in the layer above Antarctic during the winter. The hole was caused by chemicals used in refrigerators and air conditioners. When these chemicals are sent out into the atmosphere, they produce gases that destroy the ozone.
Concern about the protective ozone layer rose more recently when data(数据)from satellites and ground stations showed that ozone levels were dropping over areas other than Antarctic. Low ozone levels were recorded in the spring and summer over the United States and over other populated areas in the world.
Although many countries have already begun stopping the use of ozone-destroying chemicals, the new findings are expected to advance the timetable for a total ban(禁止)of the chemicals.
46．The scientists have observed the ozone layer________.
A．since 1980
B．since last winter
C．for more than 20 years
D．for about one year
答案：C 细节理解题。文章第三段中告诉我们：科学家们开始关注臭氧层是在20世纪80年代中期，所以A项(自从1980年起)、B项(从去年冬天起)、D项(大约一年)都不正确，只有C项符合题意。
47．The ozone layer in the atmosphere can________.
A．do a lot of good to human beings in many ways
B．protect humans from diseases caused by bad weather
C．do a lot of harm to human beings in the summer time
D．protect humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet radiation
答案：D 细节理解题。根据文章第二段第一句：... which protects humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet radiation，...(臭氧层)保护人类免受有害的紫外线的辐射……这一定语从句可以明显地看出臭氧层的作用为D项。
48．Scientists first found that there was a hole in the ozone layer________.
A．above Arctic during the winter in the mid-1980s
B．above Antarctic during the winter in the mid-1980s
C．over somewhere in the north of the equator in 1980s
D．over somewhere in the summer time in the mid-1980s
答案：B 细节理解题。第三段的第一句很清楚地告诉我们：科学家们在20世纪80年代中期，发现了南极上空的臭氧层里的空洞。
49．The damage to the ozone layer was caused by________.
A．the changeable weather
B．ozone-destroying chemicals
C．chemicals from refrigerators
D．chemicals from air conditioners
答案：B 细节理解题。本题可采用排除法解。A项文中并未提及，显然可以排除；C、D两项只是原因的一个方面，较为片面，也可排除；惟有B项是对C、D两项的综合，故选之。而且，根据第三段最后一句也可得出B项为正确答案。
50．Which of the following is NOT true?
A．The use of ozone-destroying chemicals have already been stopped.
B．The ozone levels in the spring and summer over the USA were low.
C．More and more people have begun to protect the natural surroundings.
D．Many countries have already taken measures to protect ozone layer.
答案：A 辨别正误题。文章最后一段告诉我们：尽管许多国家已经开始停止使用破坏臭氧层的化学物质，但仍希望发现新的替代品把全面禁止这种化学物质推上一个新台阶。可见，破坏臭氧层的化学物质并没有完全被停止，A项与文中事实不符。
D
Space is a dangerous place, not only because of meteors(流星) but also because of rays from the sun and other stars. The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through, and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.
Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is called “rem”. Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage—a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed (畸形的) children or even grandchildren. Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and, during the outward and return journeys, the Apollo crew accumulated a large amount of rems. So far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far.
51．According to the first paragraph, the atmosphere is essential to man in that________.
A．it protects him against the harmful rays from space
B．it provides sufficient light for plant growth
C．the heat is necessary for human survival
D．it screens the falling meteors
答案：A 细节理解题。根据文章第一段的第二句及第四句“The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth...Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radition from the sun are screened off.”，我们可以看出大气层对地球能起到保护作用，它挡住了大量的太阳辐射使人体免受辐射伤害，故选项A为正确答案。
52．We know from the passage that________.
A．even tiny amounts of radiation is fatal
B．the effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming
C．radiation is avoidable in space exploration
D．astronauts in spacesuits needn't worry about radiation damage
答案：B 细节理解题。文章第二段的第四句“The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage—a person may feel perfectly well，but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed children or even grandchilclren.”说明辐射对人体的伤害很难确定，因为人在接受辐射后可能感觉不错，但其生殖细胞却可能已遭到伤害，而且这种伤害要等到他的第一代或第二代畸形儿出生后才可能被发现。这就说明辐射对人造成的后果需要很长时间才能显示出来。故选项B为正确答案。
53．The harm radiation had done to the Apollo crew grandchildren members________.
A．is insignificant
B．seems overestimated
C．is enormous
D．remains unknown
答案：D 细节理解题。文章第二段的第六句话“so far，no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported”指出对于Apollo号宇航员身上所受的辐射目前还没有达到危险量的报告，这说明太空辐射对这些宇航员所造成的伤害目前还不知晓，故选项D为正确答案。选项A指出“Apollo号宇航员所受辐射微不足道”，选项B说“Apollo号宇航员所受辐射看来是被夸大了”，选项C说“Apollo号宇航员所受辐射非常严重”，这些内容文章中均未提到。
54．It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A．the Apollo mission was very successful
B．protection from space radiation is no easy job
C．astronauts will have deformed children or grandchildren
D．radiation is not a threat to well-protected space explorers
答案：B 推理判断题。文章第一段中指出宇航服及宇航船不能为宇航员挡住所有的辐射，第二段中指出辐射对人体造成的危害程度很难确定，因为宇航员在接受太空辐射后虽自我感觉良好，但却可能在其第一代甚至第二代后代身上出现畸形，而且文章最后指出抵制太空辐射的真正的有效药目前尚未发现，由此可见，“保护人体不受太空辐射不是一项容易的工作”。故选项B为正确答案。
55．The best title for this passage would be________.
A．The Atmosphere and Our Environment
B．Research on Radiation
C．Effects of Space Radiation
D．Importance of Protection Against Radiation
答案：C 主旨大意题。文章第一段指出，太空是一个危险的地方主要是因为太空辐射。离开大气层的宇航员虽有宇航服及宇航船的保护，但他免不了接受辐射。文章第二段指出辐射危害在短期内难以觉察，药物可以减轻辐射危害，但真正有效的药物迄今还未被发现。由此可以看出文章谈及的主要是太空辐射的后果方面的事，所以选项C为正确答案。

1．We were about to leave when a bus could be seen coming________.
A．in a distance
B．in the distance
C．at a distance
D．at the distance
答案：B 考查介词短语。根据句意“直至汽车消失在远处”可以判断，应该用in the distance，而in the distance＝far away，意为“在远处”；at/in a distance表示在一定的距离之外。
2．He gained his________by printing________of famous writers.
A．wealths; work
B．wealths; works
C．wealth; work
D．wealth; works
答案：D wealth“财富”，不可数名词；works“作品”。
3．The speech by the mayor of Shanghai before the final voting for EXPO 2010 is strongly________my memory.
A．impress to
B．impressing over
C．impressed by
D．impressed on
答案：D 本题考查impress的用法。impress sth on/upon sb。句意：上海市长为2010年世博会最后投票所作的演讲被深深地铭记在我的脑海中。
4．All of________sudden, I caught________sight of my teachers and classmates in the crowd, and then I felt much more calm.
A．a；/ B．/；/
C．a ; a D．/ ; a
答案：A 考查冠词。第一空all of a sudden“突然”，是固定短语；catch sight of“看见；瞥见”，也是固定短语。
5．Finally the man________to save the drowning child and people cheered up by the river.
A．tried B．succeeded
C．persuaded D．managed
答案：D 句意：最终，他成功的救起了那名落水儿童，岸边的人群发出了欢呼声。由后半部分“人群欢呼”知，选manage；manage to do sth表示“设法完成某事(＝succeed in doing sth)”。
6．(2010·宁波市高一第二学期期末)The latest information________my belief________he is the very person that I'm looking for.
A．confirms; that
B．doubts; which
C．shows; which
D．holds; that
答案：A 考查动词和同位语从句。句意：最新的消息证实了我的想法，他就是我要找的人。第一空confirm“证明，证实”；第二空________he is the very person that I'm looking for是belief的内容，也就是说第二空是一个同位语从句，同位语从句多用that引导。
7．The chairman urged the members of the committee to set aside their differences________.
A．and began to work
B．starting to being to work
C．and be settled for work
D．and settle down to work
答案：D 句意：主席促使该委员会的成员摈弃彼此间的分歧，开始工作。urge to do...是该句的主干。因此后面的部分应该是urge to所管辖的范围，属于并列成分；所以用原形是对的。A、B错，C成了“促使他们被……”，意思不对。故D正确，意思是认真工作。
8．They live in a beautiful village, with many trees and flowers________it.
A．surrounded B．surrounds
C．surrounding D．to surround
答案：C 考查with的复合结构。trees and flowers与surround之间是主动关系，所以选C项。句意：他住在一座美丽的小山村里，村子四周全是花和树。

A．scenery; in
B．views; within
C．scenes; beneath
D．spots; above
答案：B 句意：十英里之内，你就能发现很多美景。第一空view“(从某处看到的)景色，风景”；第二空within“在(某段距离)之间”。
11．The recent information has been put forward____more high school graduates will be admitted into universities.
A．as B．which
C．while D．that
答案：D 根据句子意思可知，空格后的从句是说明句子的主语The recent information 的内容，故该句是同位语从句，应选that连接主从句，且不可省略。
12．The first prize goes to________makes the greatest contribution to the company.
A．whomever
B．whichever
C．no matter who
D．whoever
答案：D 考查从句引导词。虽然介词之后应该用宾格，但因为后面跟的是一个句子，只能选用主格的whoever 不选用whomever；whichever不用来指表示人的主语；no matter who用来引导让步状语从句。句意为“为公司做出最大贡献的人可以得到头奖。” 本题易误选A。
13．Never________the fact that you have great artistic talent(才能)and never lose heart.
A．catch sight of
B．come in sight of
C．stand the sight of
D．lose sight of
答案：D 句意：别忘了你的艺术，不要灰心。lose sight of“看不见；失去信息；失去联系；忘记”。

答案：B 句意：这块地五米长，是紧邻的那块地的两倍。第一空measure做“量度为”讲，是系动词，无被动语态；第二空in length“长”；第三空是倍数的表达法，前三项都可以。
15．Don't move any more; in my opinion, you must________to live a stable life.
A．sit down B．stay down

阅读下面的文章，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。
A
Are you going into skiing? Is winter your favorite time of year? If you like snow and ice, maybe you should stay at Ice Hotel in Quebec, Canada. But, you can only check in at this hotel during the winter. Why? Because this hotel is built every December. It has 32 rooms and 80 people can stay there each night. The hotel even has a movie theatre, art gallery, and church. Of course, all of these parts of the hotel are made of ice. In fact, all the furniture, art, lights, and even plates and drinking glasses are made out of ice.
Because this hotel is so unusual, it is becoming very popular. People from all over the world come to the Ice Hotel to look at the fantastic ice art, drink and eat from designed ice dishes and experience the unique atmosphere. Some couples have even gotten married in the hotel's ice church. But all these guests keep their winter coats on! Because of all the ice, the temperature inside the hotel is always between －2℃ and －5℃. Surprisingly, sleeping is not a problem in the freezing cold hotel rooms. Every guest gets a special cold-weather sleeping bag and some fur blankets. These keep the room cozy until morning.
36．What is the best title of this passage?
A．How the Ice Hotel is built
B．What makes the Ice Hotel special
C．Why the Ice Hotel is made of ice
D．The services of the Ice Hotel
答案：B 主旨大意题。本文介绍了加拿大魁北克省的独特的冰雪旅馆。所以B项正确；其他选项只是其中一部分。
37．What can't you do in the hotel according to the passage?
A．Watch a movie.
B．Get married.
C．Eat an interesting meal.
D．Go swimming.
答案：D 细节理解题。由第一段“The hotel even has a movie theatre”可知，A项可以；由第二段第二、三两句话可知，在冰雪旅馆也可以吃饭和结婚，即B项和C项也可以；所以选D项。
38．Why is sleeping NOT a problem in the hotel?
A．The rooms are warm.
B．The temperature is －2℃.
C．The sleeping bags are warm.
D．The furniture is warm.
答案：C 细节理解题。由第二段倒数第二句话“Every guest gets a special cold-weather sleeping bag and some fur blankets.”可知，在冰雪旅馆睡觉不是问题是因为睡袋和毯子都是特制的。
39．In which part of the hotel would you probably find “plates”？
A．The church. B．The restaurant.
C．The rooms. D．The art gallery.
答案：B 推理判断题。由常识知，plates出现在餐馆。

答案：B 猜测词义题。所在句前说，在冰雪旅馆睡觉不成问题，因为有特制的睡袋和毯子，这些东西能让房间________。不难推知是温暖。
B
The United Nations says forty million people or so around the world went hungry in 2008, mainly because of higher food prices. Early estimates from the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) show that 963 million people did not get enough to eat.World food prices have dropped since early 2008. Prices of major crops have decreased by more than half from their height earlier last year. But they remain high compared to earlier years.
But FAO official Hafez Ghanem says lower prices have failed to end the food crisis (危机) in many poor countries. “For millions in developing countries，” he says, “getting enough food every day to live an active and healthy life is a distant dream.”
The FAO says food shortage is a threat to people's health. Today, two-thirds of the world's undernourished people live in just a few countries. These are India, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Pakistan, Ethiopia and so on.
A report on food insecurity warns that the current economic crisis could send even more people into hunger and poverty.
In sub-Saharan Africa, the percentage of the people who continually go hungry fell from 34% in 1997 to 30% in 2008. But the FAO says Ghana is the only country that has reached two sets of hunger reduction targets. These were set by the 1996 World Food Summit and the Millennium Development Goals. The main reason is the growth in agricultural production in Ghana.
The FAO says some countries in Southeast Asia like Thailand and Vietnam have made progress in hunger reduction goals. But South Asia and Central Asia haven't, and North Korea is still in hot water.
41．What FAO official Hafez Ghanem says implies(暗示)________．
A．it's easy but takes long to provide people with enough food
B．enough food can make people more active and healthier
C．there is difficulty solving the food shortage in a short time
D．people in developing countries will never get enough food
答案：C 综合信息处理题。由文章的第三段可得出答案：“For millions in developing countries，” he says, “getting enough food every day to live an active and healthy life is a distant dream.”。
42．Ghana has reached the targets of hunger reduction mainly because of________.
A．the still high food prices
B．the donation of developed countries
C．the two targets of hunger reduction
D．the growth in agricultural production
答案：D 细节理解题。在文章中的第六段可以找到答案。
43．The underlined word“undernourished”in Para. 4 probably means“________”．
A．hungry and unhappy
B．unhealthy for lack of food
C．not fat because of poverty
D．undeveloped and poor
答案：B 划线猜词题。从前面一句“The FAO says food shortage is a threat to people's health.”和后面一句国家的特点以及文章的中心lack of food可知答案为B。
44. Which country has not made progress in hunger reduction?
A．North Korea. B．Thailand.
C．Vietnam. D．Ghana.
答案：A B、C(在倒数第二段的第一句)和D(在倒数第三段)都提到了在hunger reduction方面取得了进步。
45. What is the best title of this passage?
A．The food production of the world
B．The hunger reduction target of the FAO
C．The food shortage around the world
D．The solution to the global food shortage
答案：C 理解主旨和要义，考查概括能力。本文的中心是“全世界粮食短缺问题”。
C
If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.
Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.
The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.
The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.
With so many loopholes(漏洞)in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”．
In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others?
46．While taking a taxi in Finland，________.
A．a passenger pays two US dollars for a taxi ride
B．a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driver
C．a passenger can never be turned down by the taxi driver wherever he wants to go
D．a passenger needs to provide good faith demonstration(证明)before they leave without paying
答案：C 细节理解题。由第二段第三句话“You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare.”可知。
47．We know from the passage that big hotels in Finland____.
A．are mostly poorly managed
B．provide meals for any diners
C．provide free wine and charge for food
D．provide meal for only those who live in the hotels
答案：B 细节理解题。由第三段第一句话“The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners.”可知，芬兰的旅馆也对外营业。
48．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．The workers in Finland are paid by the hour.
B．The workers are always honest with their working hours.
C．The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay.
D．The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees.
答案：D 推理判断题。由第四段第二句话“They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate.”可推知，工人们工作自由性很强。而不是老板们太忙。
49．The word “those” in Paragraph 5 probably means________.
A．people who often take taxis
B．people who are dishonest
C．people who are worthy of trust
D．people who often have meals in big hotels
答案：B 猜测词义题。该词后的定语从句“who love to take ‘petty advantages’．”就是很好的注释，those指代那些不诚实的人，想占便宜的人。
50．It can be learned that________.
A．all the Finns are rich
B．Finland has been a good place for cheats
C．the Finnish society is of very high moral level(道德水平)
D．Finnish people are not smart enough in daily life
答案：C 主旨大意题。全文以出租车司机、旅馆和工人的工时三方面例证了芬兰人的高度的道德修养，最后一段是解题部分。
D
Toronto is a big and beautiful city，which has developed from a relative unknown place over the past half century to the center of culture，trade and communication in Canada.
With its colorful ethnic(种族的)mix，rich history and breathtaking buildings，Toronto offers non-stop adventures to the tourists. To get a sense of how big，various and magical Toronto is，the best place to start is the CN Tower，the tallest free-standing(无支撑物的)building in the world. From this point，visitors can get a bird's-eye view of the city's amazing scenery and unique geography.
In addition to being an important center of culture，trade and communication in Canada，Toronto is also a major multi-ethnic city. It has a population of over 4. 5maillion and its citizens come from countries around the world and from all manner of ethnic backgrounds. Every day，in most places of the city，a hundred different languages can be heard on the streets，from Hindi to Greek to French. This，perhaps，explains why former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau once said that Canada_is_really_more_mosaic(马赛克，镶嵌图案)_of_cultures_and_languages_than_a_melting_pot.
Street signs in Toronto are mostly in English. Weekly and daily newspapers are published in various languages，and the city hosts successful international film festival each September. It is also home to a popular baseball team，the Toronto Blue Jays. Toronto has something for everyone.
51．The author wrote this passage to________.
A．tell us how Toronto develops from the past
B．introduce some famous sights of Toronto
C．draw more tourists to Toronto
D．introduce something about Canada
答案：C 推理判断题。纵观全文，主要讲述了加拿大的多伦多的特色。由此不难推断，其目的是吸引人们去多伦多旅游。
52．What can we know from the passage?
A．Toronto is in the center of Canada.
B．From the top of the CN. Tower we can see the whole Toronto.
C．The street signs in Toronto are all written in English.
D．Toronto is a city with a history of half a century.
答案：B 细节理解题。由第一段可知，多伦多是加拿大的文化、贸易和交流中心，而非地理位置是中心；同时可知，多伦多由一个相对不知名的地方发展为这样的中心地位用了五十年的时间，而非多伦多的历史是五十年。所以A项和D项都不对；由最后一段第一句话“street signs in Toronto are mostly in English.”知，多伦多街上的路标大多是英语的而非全是英语；所以C项也不对。由第二段最后一句话可知，B项正确。
53．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．Toronto hosts baseball games every year.
B．Newspapers in Canada aren't published only in English.
C．We can see people of every colour in Toronto.
D．Toronto hosts an international film festival every year.
答案：A 细节理解题。由最后一段倒数第二句话“It is also home to a popular baseball team，the Toronto Blue Jays.”可知，多伦多是一只很出名的棒球队the Toronto Blue Jays的基地，而非多伦多每年举办一次棒球运动会。所以A项错误。
54．The underlined sentence means different cultures and languages in Canada________.
A．have developed a lot
B．can be easily seen by foreigners
C．have been well mixed together
D．still keep their own characteristics
答案：D 猜测句意题。所在句用了more...than...结构，该结构意思是“与其……不如……”。所以句意为“与其说它是文化和语言的熔炉，不如说它是马赛克式的镶嵌图案”。不难推知，说的是在多伦多，各国语言和文化都保持着自己的独立性。
55．How does the author like Toronto?
A．The city is worth visiting.
B．It's just a common city in Canada
C．There are too many foreigners in the city.
D．There aren't many places of interest to visit.
答案：A 推理判断题。纵观全文，特别是最后一段最后一句话可知，作者对多伦多是很欣赏的。

Yuhe village has a population of 1,700. There is not enough farmland for so many people. So about half of the villagers, most of whom are healthy men and women, are now away from home in cities and other places to make money. Those living at home are either children or old people, or even the sick and the disabled.
We learned that people in this village are living a better life than before. But on the other hand, there are some problems : children are not so well taught when living with their grandparents. Besides, old people are unable to take good care of themselves and their properties. Special attention has to be paid to the current life of the villagers.

Ⅳ.任务型读写
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
In many English homes four meals are served; they are breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner. These are the meals that are served in the homes of people who are well to do.
Breakfast may be served any time for seven to nine. It consists of porridge, bacon and eggs(boiled or fried), butter toast or bread-and-butter with marmalade(酸果酱). Instead of bacon and eggs, fish may be served. Either tea or coffee is drunk at breakfast.
Lunch comes at about one o'clock. It generally consists of cold meat (left over from yesterday's dinner), potatoes, and salad. After that there is bread or biscuits and cheese. Most people drink water at lunchtime; some drink beer or wine. It is not the custom to drink the spirits(烈性酒)like whisky or brandy even wealthy homes in the middle of the day.
Afternoon tea, taken between four and five, is the most informal meal of the day. If you are a friend of the family you may drop in for tea without an invitation or telling them that you are coming. Each person has a cup and saucer, a spoon and a small plate for bread-and-butter and cake. By the way, do not help yourself to cake first; bread-and-butter first, and then cake if there is any. Another piece of advice: do not put more than one piece of bread or cake on your plate at the same time.
Dinner is the most substantial(丰盛的)meal of the day and is a very formal meal. Many people even wear special clothes for dinner, so if you are asked out of dinner you must find out whether you are expected to wear a dinner suit; for you would feel very embarrassed if, when you go there, you were the only person in ordinary clothes. Dinner is generally served at about half past seven. All the members of the family sit down together and are on their best behavior. The head of the family sits at one end of the table; his wife sits at the other. If there is a guest, he generally sits in the place of honor, which is at the right of lady of the house. If there are several guests the most important is asked to sit there. During the meal conservation is carried on, you should try to get into the conversation with the person on your right or left, but you should not try to talk to someone who is a long way from you.
