III 阅读理解
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairly stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.
A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, in think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faces and mastered.
There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that , instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girlfriend.
No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was
46. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is_______
A. repeated without any change
B. treated as a joke
C. make some changes by the parents
D. set in the present
47. According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story is ______.
A. in a realistic setting B. heard for the first time
C. repeated too often D. told in a different way
48. The advantage claimed(提出)for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it ______.
A. makes them less fearful B. develops their power of memory
C. makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of
D. encourages them not to have strange beliefs
49. The author's mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that _______.
A. fairy stories are still being made up
B. there is some misunderstanding about fairy tales
C. people try to modernize old fairy stories
D. there is more concern for children's fears nowadays
50. One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that ______.
A. they are full of imagination
B. they just make up the stories which are far from the truth
C. they are not interesting
D. they make teachers of history difficult to teach
B

One possible version
My classmates and I took part in a wildness survival program from July 10th to July 13th this summer.
Before we started, we were equipped with a compass, a map, a first-aid kit, tents, flashlights, some food,
some clothes and so on. On the way we climbed three hills and swam across two rivers. We lost our way in
the forest. Luckily we found the right direction with the compass. As soon as we arrived at the campsite,
we put up our tents, made a fire and then started cooking. We also learned how to five first-aid.
Through the program, we learned to use knowledge gained in class to solve problems. It was quite an
unforgettable experience for me.

In many parts of the world, cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them. So the idea that in 20 years' time, no one will own cars may be hard to believe. But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously, not only by government but also by car manufacturers.
The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the UK is part of an international research program. The team there believes that by 2020 all cars will be computerized, which will mean much saving, no accidents and better use of roads. The super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself, and it will not be owned by one individual. Instead, we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing.
According to Dr. David Davis , who leads the research team, these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture, which had blocked up our cities, polluted our air , and caused more deaths than both world wars put together.
Davis says, cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices to regulate the distance between one car and another. The car will automatically speed up, or slow down, to match the speed of the car in front. Computers are much safer drivers than people, so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people.
By 2010, Dr. David Davis believes, car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road, whatever the weather conditions, by projecting an image of the road ahead on to the car's windscreen. And by 2020, cars will travel in convoy, linked to each other electronically. Cars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form “road –trains”. “The front vehicle in such a train burns the normal amount.” says Davis. “But all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount, and so produce about ten percent of the pollution.”
6.We know from the passage that governments and car manufacturers _______
A. do not believe the prediction that no one will own cars by 2020
B. are devoted to the technological revolution in car industry
C. consider the predictions seriously
D. have put the super-intelligent car into mass production
7. Which of the following will be the characteristic of the cars of 2020?
The car will speed up out of control
We will own as many cars as we want
All cars will be driven by computers
Cars will produce more pollution than present ones
8. The leader of the research team believes that the present car culture will change because_________
cars play a very important role in daily life
many societies would stop functioning without cars
cars should not be owned by one individual
it causes many deaths to human society
9.The expression closest in meaning to the phrase “in convoy” in the last paragraph is________
A. in line B. sidelong C. side by side D. shoulder to shoulder
10. What will happen if cars are joined to each other electronically in 2020?
A.Motorists will get a clear view of the road
B.The weather condition will not have effect on motorists
C.There will be less pollution caused by car
D.All trains will burn less fuel than present

Getting around in Canada is fairly easy. Most cities have urban transportation systems, including buses, streetcars, and trains, and some of the larger cities also have subways.
???? You can board these systems at regular stops along their routes. Some let you pay with cash while others require tickets. If you don't have a ticket for the bus, you must pay with the correct amount of money. This is because the driver does not carry any change. If you plan to stay in a city for a long time, you may want to buy a monthly pass or a package of tickets to save money. You can buy subway
???? tickets at any subway station.
???? If you have to take several buses or subways for a single trip, you do not need to pay money each time. Simply ask the driver for a transfer (换乘) ticket, or take one from the machines on the subway platform.
???? If you are not sure where to board the bus or the streetcar, just ask someone or follow the crowd. People can usually only board at the front of the bus where you show your pass to the driver. When using public transportation, Canadians line up. First come, first serve, is a common approach to many activities in Canada, and it is considered to be extremely rude to cut in any line.
???? Maps of routes and schedules are usually available from the public transit (运输) company in your area, and there is also a telephone information line. You may ask someone for the name of the transit company in your area, and then look it up in the telephone book.

Since the time when the Romans first settled on the Danube River and built one of their most important central European forts (堡垒), Vindobona, the city we now know as Vienna, has played a very important role in European history. Austria grew up around the city and developed into a strong empire (帝国). The capital became a famous place during the rule of the Habsburg dynasty.
???? Today, Vienna is one of the most popular tourist spots in Austria as well as a major center of modern business and culture. Many different cultures have fused their cultural identities to produce the amazing Viennese culture. It is said that the most beautiful German is spoken in this old city.
???? A city of music, cafes, waltzes, parks, cakes, and wine —that's Vienna. Famous composers such as Mozart, Beethoven and Schubert made Vienna into a city of music. Vienna also has a lot to offer in art and architecture. Yet the bars and clubs make a trip to Vienna an unforgettable experience. Vienna's cooking diversity is also impressive. Dumpling soup, tender boiled beef and apple rolls are typical Austrian dishes.
???? The face of the city has changed time and again due to war, victory, defeat, the death of an empire and the birth of a republic, foreign occupation (占领), and the passage of time. Fortunately, the Viennese character —a strict devotion to the good life —has remained solid.
60. What can we know about Vienna in the past?
???? A. It used to be a business center.
B. People there had beautiful voices.
C. Austria developed around this city.
???? D. There were some forts in this city.
61. What does the underlined word "fused" in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Melted. B. Learned. ???? C. Referred. D. Protected.
62. Which of the following items about Vienna are mentioned in this passage?
①music ②culture ③weather ④ history ⑤food ⑥ government ⑦art
A. ①④⑤⑥ B. ②④⑤⑦ C. ④⑤⑥⑦ D. ②③④⑤

The true history of tennis did not begin until the 1850's, when the first "modern" tennis balls were invented and used. Before this point, it was a completely different game —real tennis.
???? Real tennis is played on indoor courts. In fact, real tennis cannot be played outside —the players use the L-shaped walls of a real tennis court to hit and return the ball to their opponents (对手). Yes, real tennis is very similar to today's modern tennis, or "lawn tennis", which can be played on a lawn.
???? Tennis as we know it today was referred to as "lawn tennis", and it did not part from real tennis until the 1850's. It was then that Charles Goodyear invented vulcanized (硫化) rubber. Vulcanization is a process that prevents natural rubber from becoming unusable so quickly. (Without it, natural rubber balls would become unusable after just a few days.)
???? Walter Clopton Wingfield was usually the man who was given credit for the invention of modern tennis. He thought highly of this new form of playing tennis. Around 1874, Wingfield actually patented (取得专利权) the game. It became more and more popular among the high class toward the end of the 1800s. Tennis clubs began to be set up, and the first tennis championships were held in 1877 in Wimbledon.
???? The rules of tennis changed gradually throughout the late 1800s, along with the shape of the court (球场) and the height of net, changing the history of tennis in the process!
63. Which would be the best title for the passage?
???? A. The History of Real Tennis
B. The History of Modern Tennis
C. The Difference Between Real and Modern Tennis
???? D. Characteristics of Modern Tennis
64. Which of the following is a characteristic of real tennis?
???? A. It can be played on a lawn.
B. It can only be played on indoor courts.
C. It was very popular in the late 1800s.
???? D. It was invented by Walter Clopton Wingfield.
65. The underlined word "credit" in Paragraph 4 means "______".
A. support B. medal C. praise D. work

????A newspaper, a publication usually issued on a daily or weekly basis, has the main fun_ction of reporting news. Many newspapers also furnish their readers with other pieces of useful information, such as weather reports, television schedules, and stock prices. They provide commentary (评论) on politics, economics, and arts and culture. In nearly all cases and in varying degrees, newspapers depend on commercial advertising for their income.

Newspapers not only inform readers that an event has happened but also help readers understand what led to the event and how it will affect the world.
???? The staff of a large newspaper works under the constant pressure of deadlines to bring news to readers as quickly as their minds, bodies and the technology they use permit. Reporters, photographers, artists, and editors compile (编写) articles and graphics —sometimes in just a few hours. Page designers combine articles, photos, advertisements, and eye-catching headlines into page layouts (版面), then rush their work to the printer. Printing technicians may work through the night operating printing presses that can print out more than 60,000 copies per hour.

Dear Tom,
???? I was so pleased to hear from you. Now I am writing to tell you something about my visit to Mount Lion.
???? The other day I visited Mount Lion with three of my friends. When we got to the top at noon, we were tired, but the scenery there was so beautiful that we forgot our tiredness. On the top of the hill stands a temple, a little south of which lies the tomb of a famous scholar of Yuan Dynasty. We could hardly read the characters on the tombstone. There were many pine trees on the hill. It is said that two of them are over five hundred years old. It was late in the afternoon that we set off for home with a beautiful memory in our mind.
???? I really hope that one day you can visit Mount Lion with us.
