Ⅲ．阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
A
Newspapers are one method of bringing the news to the public.Reporters，photographers，correspondents，and editors are some of the people who create newspapers.They are known as journalists.
Reporters are journalists who go out and get the news.They attend meetings.They cover events such as court cases，plays，and sporting events.They interview people to get their views about what is going on.Reporters must be able to write a story quickly so as to meet a deadline.People do not want to read old news.They want to know what is going on as soon as it happens.Reporters sometimes phone or e mail their notes and quotations（引用语）to the paper from the scene.A reporter in the office then writes the story.
A “stringer” is a part time reporter who works when called upon.A fire might break out in one part of town.An editor may ask a stringer who lives near the scene to cover the story.
Reporters often work with photographers，or photojournalists.Photojournalists take the pictures that illustrate（图解）the stories in a newspaper.They have to edit their pictures in time for them to appear with the story.
A correspondent is a journalist who covers the news in a particular place or on a subject that he or she has special knowledge in.Large newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there.A paper may have a correspondent who covers just medical news.
An editor is a journalist who works at a desk in a newspaper office.Editors prepare the reporters' stories to be printed in the paper.They decide which story is the most important and gets the front page headline.They decide which pictures to use.Editors do not often write the news，but they do write editorials（社论）in which they state their views on a topic or an issue.
People who work as journalists have some things in common.They are curious，they like to write，and they have a “nose for news”．They can spot news as it happens.They know what people want to read about.
36．The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A．readers B．journalists
C．reporters D．stringers
37．A journalist working abroad to report news may be called ______.
A．a stringer B．a photojournalist
C．an editor D．a correspondent
38．According to the passage，both the reporter and the editor ______.
A．usually work in the office
B．decide which pictures to use
C．have the ability to discover news
D．often write editorials for their paper
39．The passage is mainly written to ______.
A．introduce different posts and duties of journalists
B．describe the characters of journalists
C．explain how the news is collected
D．show how reporters work
B
Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day.Most people only read the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns，the comics，and perhaps the classified advertisements.Most people don't take time to read real news.They attempt to catch the reader's interest with pictures and exciting headlines.These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper.The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper.This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make them stop and look.If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough，perhaps they will go on to read the front page.However，they may read the headlines，but that is all，then they turn to the sports page，or comics，or advertisements.
It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper any more.They say they get the news on television now.More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper.What about you？Do you read news from a newspaper？Do you think it is easier to get news from television？Or do you care about news at all？Would you mind if there were no news?
40．We can know from the passage that newspaper editors think the important part of a newspaper is ______.
A．the front page
B．the sports page
C．the headlines
D．the classified advertisements

D．The ones with gossip columns on the front page.

参考答案
Ⅰ.
1. 答案：A 点拨：句意：你自己的问题自己解决，不要把我扯进去。involve sb.in doing...是固定搭配，意为“使某人牵涉……”。
2. 答案：D 点拨：hear发生在talked这一过去动作之前故用过去完成时，never是含有否定意义的副词，放在句首时，句子应使用倒装语序。
3. 答案：B 点拨：cover“行过（路程）”；recover“恢复”。句意：他一天走了40英里，筋疲力尽，但不久就恢复了他的体力。
4. 答案：A 点拨：考查名词辨析。根据回答“为了向我展示他的新智能手机”可知，这里在问他的目的（intention）是什么。profession“职业”；impression“印象”；explanation“解释”。
5. 答案：B 点拨：concentrate“全神贯注”；promote“促进”；associate“联系”；accumulate“聚集”。这里指促进经济发展，故B项正确。
6. 答案：B 点拨：acquire“得到，获得”；inquire“询问”；request“要求，请求”；require“需要”。句意：如果你想了解火车的时间表，请到订票处问询。
7. 答案：B 点拨：be delighted to do sth.“很高兴做某事”为固定搭配。句意：看到两位女记者安全返回，这两家人都很高兴。
8. 答案：C 点拨：as long as“只要”；in order that“目的是”，引导目的状语从句时，主、从句的主语须一致；in case “万一，以防”；so that“以便”。句意：约翰或许今晚打电话，我不想出去，以防他打来。根据语境，C项最佳。
9. 答案：A 点拨：A、B、C三项均有“指控，指责，责备”的意思，但搭配不同，分别为accuse sb.of，charge sb.with和scold sb.for；curse at sb./sth.意为“诅咒（咒骂）某人/某事”。从of可知A项正确。
10. 答案：C 点拨：考查情景交际。问句有征求意见之意，由答句“I won't use it then.”可知应填“可以，你用吧。”故选C项。Come on.“加油，得了吧”；It depends.“视情况而定”；That's great.“好极了”，表赞同对方的建议而非请求。
11. 答案：B 点拨：wish后从句用虚拟语气，和现在事实相反，用一般过去时；appointment“约会”，第一个字母以元音音素开头，故选B项。
12. 答案：B 点拨：根据两句中的began to和started to及题意可知两句的动作是在同时进行，故用meanwhile（同时）。indeed“的确”；finally“最后”；therefore“因而”，均不符合题意。
13. 答案：D 点拨：句意：在她没能通过桥后，教练帮她把车开了回来。fail in doing sth.“做某事不成功”；assist sb.in doing sth./with sth.“帮助某人干某事”。
14. 答案：D 点拨：so that在句中引导的是结果状语从句。in order that表示“以便”，只能引导目的状语从句；in order to和so as to均表示“为了”，后接动词不定式，而不接从句。
15. 答案：A 点拨：句意：对罪犯的描述是如此精确，警察能够绘出他的肖像。accurate“精确的，准确的”；vague“模糊的”；unclear“不清晰的”；vain“徒然的，无益的”。
Ⅱ.

16．B 点拨：从文章开头及文中多处出现的blue可知，汤姆贴的是蓝色的（blue）胶带。

18．B 点拨：丹尼弄坏了汤姆的飞机模型的机翼，因此汤姆感到气愤（mad）。
19．D 点拨：根据丹尼一直妥协的话语可知，他是不小心弄坏汤姆的飞机模型的，并非故意，故选accidentally。
20．A 点拨：丹尼指着胶带说，我不喜欢座位中间的这根分隔线（line）。下段...cross the line为提示。
21．B 点拨：汤姆让丹尼答应（promise）他不要越界。
22．C 点拨：丹尼同意汤姆的要求，和他对汤姆也提出要求之间是转折关系，故选but。

27．D 点拨：本篇文章讲述的是一件发生在车上的事，因此接着是叙述过了几分钟（minutes）发生的事情。
28．D 点拨：根据下段丹尼的警告可知，汤姆打算（intended）越界捡笔。
29．C 点拨：汤姆向车窗外凝视（stared）。下一段的Danny stared out，too为提示。

35．A 点拨：兄弟俩又一起玩了起来，而且还找到了（found）先前不见了的那块拼图。
Ⅲ.
A
答案：
36．A 点拨：代词指代题。根据上句的“People do not want to read”和本句的want to可知，此处they指的是上文中的people，也就是报纸的读者。
37．D 点拨：细节理解题。根据第五段的“Large newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there.”可知应选D项。correspondent指的是专门负责报道某一地区或者某一领域的记者。
38．C 点拨：推理判断题。根据最后一段的“they have a ‘nose for news’．They can spot news as it happens.”可知，记者和编辑都具有发现新闻的能力。nose此处指“感知、发现的能力”。
39．A 点拨：主旨大意题。该文旨在介绍新闻工作者的常见职位和职责，故A项最符合题意。
B
答案：
40．A 点拨：推理判断题。文章第一段提到新闻往往采取一些令人感兴趣的图片和标题来吸引读者注意，而这些技巧一般被用在报纸的头版。
41．A 点拨：推理判断题。新闻往往用一些图片和令人感兴趣的标题来吸引读者注意。
42．D 点拨：细节理解题。根据文章第三句“Most people only read the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns，the comics，and perhaps the classified advertisements.”和第四句“Most people don't take time to read real news.”可以找到答案。
43．A 点拨：主旨归纳题。由文章的第一句话可知作者对报纸今非昔比的状况似乎有点感慨，作者认为报纸应该受到人们更多的关注。
C
答案：
44．A 点拨：细节理解题。从第一幅广告末的“Issues：12 issues/12 months”信息，我们知道，Discover这本杂志是月刊。
45．D 点拨：细节理解题。通读这几则广告，我们可以看出，Self和Wired都是由Conde Nast Publications Inc.出版。故本题选D项。
46．B 点拨：细节理解题。从Wired这则广告中，我们知道，这份杂志的让利比例是83%，在所有杂志中，比例最大。
47．A 点拨：细节理解题。在第二幅广告中，“Every issue contains usable articles such as ‘Style Lab’，in which wearable clothes are mixed and matched on non models”告诉我们，Self杂志中的Style Lab为普通妇女（non models）的衣着提供建议。
D
答案：
48．A 点拨：段落大意题。第一句是主题句：“希拉里孜孜不倦地帮助儿童及其家庭”，接着展开叙述，具体介绍了希拉里的工作以及担任的角色。
49．B 点拨：细节理解题。由文章最后“for her vast contributions in so many fields，especially honouring her work for women and children”可知答案。
50．A 点拨：推理判断题。从第二段的最后一句“It was there that she met Bill Clinton，a fellow student.”得出答案。她和克林顿结婚在1975年，那时她28岁，因此选项B不对；我们无从得出她曾当律师20多年的结论，尽管她曾从事律师工作，因此排除选项C；文章倒数第二段说希拉里曾在阿肯色州儿童医院做事，但不意味着做医生，故排除选项D。
51．C 点拨：主旨大意题。本文简要介绍了希拉里的生平，更多地说明了她的活动，展现了第一夫人的诸多方面的成就，因此选C项。
E
答案：
52．A 点拨：细节理解题。由第一段第二句可得出答案，关键句“The earliest daily newspaper was started in Rome in 59 BC.”，因此正确答案为A项。
53．B 点拨：细节理解题。由第一段最后一句可以推知答案为B项，关键句“Europe didn't have a．..，when one was started in Germany”。
54．D 点拨：细节理解题。由第三段最后一句可得出答案。关键句“There are now about 1,800 daily papers in the United States”。
55．B 点拨：细节理解题。根据第二段内容可得出A、D两项所述内容是正确的，再根据第一段可推知C项内容也是正确的，因此正确答案为B项，根据最后一段可知。
附加题

I became a student journalist after severe competition against many other applicants.Then I attended a three day training course given by the local newspaper，which equipped me with some basic knowledge about how to become a journalist.After that，I worked with some experienced journalists and editors for two weeks，during which I learned a lot about how to interview，write reports，edit and take photos，which are all parts of journalists' daily tasks.
From my experience，I realize that to be a journalist，one must have a sharp mind and a good nose for the news.It is also important to know how to communicate with others.
This is what I can share with you.Can you tell me what is happening to you?
Yours，
Li_Hua

Ⅲ．阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
A
Newspapers are one method of bringing the news to the public.Reporters，photographers，correspondents，and editors are some of the people who create newspapers.They are known as journalists.
Reporters are journalists who go out and get the news.They attend meetings.They cover events such as court cases，plays，and sporting events.They interview people to get their views about what is going on.Reporters must be able to write a story quickly so as to meet a deadline.People do not want to read old news.They want to know what is going on as soon as it happens.Reporters sometimes phone or e mail their notes and quotations（引用语）to the paper from the scene.A reporter in the office then writes the story.
A “stringer” is a part time reporter who works when called upon.A fire might break out in one part of town.An editor may ask a stringer who lives near the scene to cover the story.
Reporters often work with photographers，or photojournalists.Photojournalists take the pictures that illustrate（图解）the stories in a newspaper.They have to edit their pictures in time for them to appear with the story.
A correspondent is a journalist who covers the news in a particular place or on a subject that he or she has special knowledge in.Large newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there.A paper may have a correspondent who covers just medical news.
An editor is a journalist who works at a desk in a newspaper office.Editors prepare the reporters' stories to be printed in the paper.They decide which story is the most important and gets the front page headline.They decide which pictures to use.Editors do not often write the news，but they do write editorials（社论）in which they state their views on a topic or an issue.
People who work as journalists have some things in common.They are curious，they like to write，and they have a “nose for news”．They can spot news as it happens.They know what people want to read about.
36．The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A．readers B．journalists
C．reporters D．stringers
37．A journalist working abroad to report news may be called ______.
A．a stringer B．a photojournalist
C．an editor D．a correspondent
38．According to the passage，both the reporter and the editor ______.
A．usually work in the office
B．decide which pictures to use
C．have the ability to discover news
D．often write editorials for their paper
39．The passage is mainly written to ______.
A．introduce different posts and duties of journalists
B．describe the characters of journalists
C．explain how the news is collected
D．show how reporters work
B
Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day.Most people only read the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns，the comics，and perhaps the classified advertisements.Most people don't take time to read real news.They attempt to catch the reader's interest with pictures and exciting headlines.These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper.The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper.This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make them stop and look.If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough，perhaps they will go on to read the front page.However，they may read the headlines，but that is all，then they turn to the sports page，or comics，or advertisements.
It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper any more.They say they get the news on television now.More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper.What about you？Do you read news from a newspaper？Do you think it is easier to get news from television？Or do you care about news at all？Would you mind if there were no news?
40．We can know from the passage that newspaper editors think the important part of a newspaper is ______.
A．the front page
B．the sports page
C．the headlines
D．the classified advertisements

D．The ones with gossip columns on the front page.
42．According to the passage，most people read all of the following EXCEPT ______.
A．the sports page B．comics
C．advertisements D．real news
43．The author's attitude toward newspapers is ______.

参考答案
Ⅰ.
1. 答案：A 点拨：句意：你自己的问题自己解决，不要把我扯进去。involve sb.in doing...是固定搭配，意为“使某人牵涉……”。
2. 答案：D 点拨：hear发生在talked这一过去动作之前故用过去完成时，never是含有否定意义的副词，放在句首时，句子应使用倒装语序。
3. 答案：B 点拨：cover“行过（路程）”；recover“恢复”。句意：他一天走了40英里，筋疲力尽，但不久就恢复了他的体力。
4. 答案：A 点拨：考查名词辨析。根据回答“为了向我展示他的新智能手机”可知，这里在问他的目的（intention）是什么。profession“职业”；impression“印象”；explanation“解释”。
5. 答案：B 点拨：concentrate“全神贯注”；promote“促进”；associate“联系”；accumulate“聚集”。这里指促进经济发展，故B项正确。
6. 答案：B 点拨：acquire“得到，获得”；inquire“询问”；request“要求，请求”；require“需要”。句意：如果你想了解火车的时间表，请到订票处问询。
7. 答案：B 点拨：be delighted to do sth.“很高兴做某事”为固定搭配。句意：看到两位女记者安全返回，这两家人都很高兴。
8. 答案：C 点拨：as long as“只要”；in order that“目的是”，引导目的状语从句时，主、从句的主语须一致；in case “万一，以防”；so that“以便”。句意：约翰或许今晚打电话，我不想出去，以防他打来。根据语境，C项最佳。
9. 答案：A 点拨：A、B、C三项均有“指控，指责，责备”的意思，但搭配不同，分别为accuse sb.of，charge sb.with和scold sb.for；curse at sb./sth.意为“诅咒（咒骂）某人/某事”。从of可知A项正确。
10. 答案：C 点拨：考查情景交际。问句有征求意见之意，由答句“I won't use it then.”可知应填“可以，你用吧。”故选C项。Come on.“加油，得了吧”；It depends.“视情况而定”；That's great.“好极了”，表赞同对方的建议而非请求。
11. 答案：B 点拨：wish后从句用虚拟语气，和现在事实相反，用一般过去时；appointment“约会”，第一个字母以元音音素开头，故选B项。
12. 答案：B 点拨：根据两句中的began to和started to及题意可知两句的动作是在同时进行，故用meanwhile（同时）。indeed“的确”；finally“最后”；therefore“因而”，均不符合题意。
13. 答案：D 点拨：句意：在她没能通过桥后，教练帮她把车开了回来。fail in doing sth.“做某事不成功”；assist sb.in doing sth./with sth.“帮助某人干某事”。
14. 答案：D 点拨：so that在句中引导的是结果状语从句。in order that表示“以便”，只能引导目的状语从句；in order to和so as to均表示“为了”，后接动词不定式，而不接从句。
15. 答案：A 点拨：句意：对罪犯的描述是如此精确，警察能够绘出他的肖像。accurate“精确的，准确的”；vague“模糊的”；unclear“不清晰的”；vain“徒然的，无益的”。
Ⅱ.
答案：
16．B 点拨：从文章开头及文中多处出现的blue可知，汤姆贴的是蓝色的（blue）胶带。

18．B 点拨：丹尼弄坏了汤姆的飞机模型的机翼，因此汤姆感到气愤（mad）。
19．D 点拨：根据丹尼一直妥协的话语可知，他是不小心弄坏汤姆的飞机模型的，并非故意，故选accidentally。
20．A 点拨：丹尼指着胶带说，我不喜欢座位中间的这根分隔线（line）。下段...cross the line为提示。
21．B 点拨：汤姆让丹尼答应（promise）他不要越界。
22．C 点拨：丹尼同意汤姆的要求，和他对汤姆也提出要求之间是转折关系，故选but。

24．A 点拨：根据途中兄弟俩一言不发可知，后座上一直很安静（peaceful）。

27．D 点拨：本篇文章讲述的是一件发生在车上的事，因此接着是叙述过了几分钟（minutes）发生的事情。
28．D 点拨：根据下段丹尼的警告可知，汤姆打算（intended）越界捡笔。
29．C 点拨：汤姆向车窗外凝视（stared）。下一段的Danny stared out，too为提示。
30．D 点拨：丹尼看着汤姆一直看窗外，他也看向窗外，然后才意识到（realized）原来汤姆一直在看远处的飞机。
31．D 点拨：丹尼对于弄坏汤姆的飞机模型感到抱歉。上文的broken the wing为提示。
32．B 点拨：根据过了一分钟汤姆才说话可知，汤姆先是沉默了（quiet）一会儿。
33．C 点拨：根据下文的cards可知，丹尼说他有一副纸牌（cards）。
34．C 点拨：根据下文的“They pulled off the tape”可知，丹尼提议将蓝胶带撕掉。get rid of“除去，处理掉”。
35．A 点拨：兄弟俩又一起玩了起来，而且还找到了（found）先前不见了的那块拼图。
Ⅲ.
A
答案：
36．A 点拨：代词指代题。根据上句的“People do not want to read”和本句的want to可知，此处they指的是上文中的people，也就是报纸的读者。
37．D 点拨：细节理解题。根据第五段的“Large newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there.”可知应选D项。correspondent指的是专门负责报道某一地区或者某一领域的记者。
38．C 点拨：推理判断题。根据最后一段的“they have a ‘nose for news’．They can spot news as it happens.”可知，记者和编辑都具有发现新闻的能力。nose此处指“感知、发现的能力”。
39．A 点拨：主旨大意题。该文旨在介绍新闻工作者的常见职位和职责，故A项最符合题意。
B
答案：
40．A 点拨：推理判断题。文章第一段提到新闻往往采取一些令人感兴趣的图片和标题来吸引读者注意，而这些技巧一般被用在报纸的头版。
41．A 点拨：推理判断题。新闻往往用一些图片和令人感兴趣的标题来吸引读者注意。
42．D 点拨：细节理解题。根据文章第三句“Most people only read the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns，the comics，and perhaps the classified advertisements.”和第四句“Most people don't take time to read real news.”可以找到答案。
43．A 点拨：主旨归纳题。由文章的第一句话可知作者对报纸今非昔比的状况似乎有点感慨，作者认为报纸应该受到人们更多的关注。
C
答案：
44．A 点拨：细节理解题。从第一幅广告末的“Issues：12 issues/12 months”信息，我们知道，Discover这本杂志是月刊。
45．D 点拨：细节理解题。通读这几则广告，我们可以看出，Self和Wired都是由Conde Nast Publications Inc.出版。故本题选D项。
46．B 点拨：细节理解题。从Wired这则广告中，我们知道，这份杂志的让利比例是83%，在所有杂志中，比例最大。
47．A 点拨：细节理解题。在第二幅广告中，“Every issue contains usable articles such as ‘Style Lab’，in which wearable clothes are mixed and matched on non models”告诉我们，Self杂志中的Style Lab为普通妇女（non models）的衣着提供建议。
D
答案：
48．A 点拨：段落大意题。第一句是主题句：“希拉里孜孜不倦地帮助儿童及其家庭”，接着展开叙述，具体介绍了希拉里的工作以及担任的角色。
49．B 点拨：细节理解题。由文章最后“for her vast contributions in so many fields，especially honouring her work for women and children”可知答案。
50．A 点拨：推理判断题。从第二段的最后一句“It was there that she met Bill Clinton，a fellow student.”得出答案。她和克林顿结婚在1975年，那时她28岁，因此选项B不对；我们无从得出她曾当律师20多年的结论，尽管她曾从事律师工作，因此排除选项C；文章倒数第二段说希拉里曾在阿肯色州儿童医院做事，但不意味着做医生，故排除选项D。
51．C 点拨：主旨大意题。本文简要介绍了希拉里的生平，更多地说明了她的活动，展现了第一夫人的诸多方面的成就，因此选C项。
E
答案：
52．A 点拨：细节理解题。由第一段第二句可得出答案，关键句“The earliest daily newspaper was started in Rome in 59 BC.”，因此正确答案为A项。
53．B 点拨：细节理解题。由第一段最后一句可以推知答案为B项，关键句“Europe didn't have a．..，when one was started in Germany”。
54．D 点拨：细节理解题。由第三段最后一句可得出答案。关键句“There are now about 1,800 daily papers in the United States”。
55．B 点拨：细节理解题。根据第二段内容可得出A、D两项所述内容是正确的，再根据第一段可推知C项内容也是正确的，因此正确答案为B项，根据最后一段可知。
附加题

I became a student journalist after severe competition against many other applicants.Then I attended a three day training course given by the local newspaper，which equipped me with some basic knowledge about how to become a journalist.After that，I worked with some experienced journalists and editors for two weeks，during which I learned a lot about how to interview，write reports，edit and take photos，which are all parts of journalists' daily tasks.
From my experience，I realize that to be a journalist，one must have a sharp mind and a good nose for the news.It is also important to know how to communicate with others.
This is what I can share with you.Can you tell me what is happening to you?
Yours，
Li_Hua
