III.阅读理解
The first reality TV show in the world was called Expedition Robinson and it was shown in Sweden in 1997. Half the population of the country watched the final event and a new kind of TV program was born. Two years later in Holland, the first series of Big Brother was filmed. Again, it was a great success and the final program was watched by 15 million people. Now more than 20 countries around the world have Big Brother or Expedition Robinson on their TV screens. The ordinary people who take part in the programs are known by millions of people in their own countries and reality TV has become big, big business.
For the TV producers, reality TV is a dream to come true because many of the programs cost nothing to make. At some point, the television viewers are asked to telephone the program to vote or to apply to take part in the show. It is the cost of these telephone calls that pays for the shows. One of the most popular shows is Pop Idol. In the show, a group of attractive young people are made into pop stars. TV viewers vote for their favorite person on the show. The winner makes a record and millions of copies of the record are sold. His or her pictures are published on the covers of magazines or on the front pages of newspapers, and then, they are quickly forgotten.
But not everyone is happy about reality TV. In Portugal, two TV channels got into trouble because they showed too much of the personal lives of the people in the shows. In France, reality TV is called rubbish "TV" and the TV studios of Big Brother were attacked three times in one week. In Greece, Big Brother was described as "against human rights and civilization".

B. TV actors who take part in reality TV shows.
C. TV viewers who telephone reality TV shows.

II. 1.B surprised意为“吃惊的”,表示人的心理状态;surprising意为“令人吃惊的”,表示事物的性质特点。此处的surprised与happy并列,是形容词作状语,表示主语所处的状态。
A 由How long可知,此处要填的是表示状态的词,故排除C项;再由后面的before they got married可知,应用过去完成时,故A项正确。
C 句意:我唯一关心的是你是否休息。care for意为“喜欢,照顾”;look for意为“寻找”;care about意为“在意,在乎”;look after意为“照看”,只有C项符合题意,故C项正确。
D 句意:《哈利波特》系列丛书非常有趣,它不但使世界各地的青少年感兴趣,也使一些成年人感兴趣。第一个空的interesting意为“有趣的”;第二个空的interests为动词,意为“使感兴趣”。
D 句意:演讲者为了让我们感兴趣,在作报告的时候,不时地讲个小笑话或故事。here and there意为“到处”;sooner or later意为“迟早”;more or less意为“或多或少”;now and then意为“不时,偶尔”。
C much to one’s surprise意为“令某人非常吃惊的是”;in surprise意为“吃惊地”,均为固定搭配。
A 句意:由张艺谋导演的那部感人的影片让观众深受感动。moving意为“感人的”,在句中作定语;moved意为“受感动的”,在句中作补语。
C 句意:现在已经10点了,我纳闷这么短的路程,她怎么会迟到两个小时呢。come over意为“过来,串门”;come out意为“出现,出版”;come about意为“发生,产生”;come up意为“被提出来”。
D 句意:Jack和Alice至少已经结婚20年了。marry sb.“和某人结婚”,不需要介词,且表达瞬间动作。be married to表示状态,故D项正确。
A 句意:我发现他的新小说中的人物都是真实的。character意为“人物,角色”时,是可数名词;people意为“人们”,是集体名词,指生活中的人。
