英 语 试 题
第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）
第一节（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
A
Our need to communicate with each other has been a driving force（力量） in the development of technology．In the 20th century we have seen the invention of the radio，television，telephone and fax，and today the Internet has opened up a whole new way of communicating．We now have instant （即刻的）messaging services such as ICQ or China's QQ and chat rooms where people can join group discussions．They mean increasing choices for when，where and how to communicate，and more importantly, with whom．
While most people use the Internet to keep in touch with friends and family, a growing number of people use QQ and chat rooms to meet and chat with strangers．Because the Internet allows a certain amount of anonymity, users can be more open making it easier to make new friends．One user said that everyone is equal online，and age and appearance become unimportant．This makes it easier for people
to communicate with each other．
Finding new friends is not the only reason people use chat rooms．The Internet can bring together like-minded （志趣相投的）people who want to discuss their favourite topics．There are chat rooms for certain sports，types of music，styles of art，in fact，just about any interest you can imagine，and many that you can't! Whatever unusual interest you might have, if you search on the Internet，there is a good chance that you will find someone．somewhere in cyberspace，willing to talk to you about it-right now．
However, there are problems with going online．It is possible for cyber-criminals to steal information such as credit card details while you are online，and there is always the chance that a new friend is not who he or she claims（声称） to be．One girl was really disappointed when she discovered that her new cyberfriend who wrote poems for her, was actually copying all the poems from magazines．But for all the problems that might come up，instant messaging services and chat rooms are here to stay, putting in touch with friends，family and strangers of similar interests
1．People use the Internet to ．
A．chat to friends and meet family B．meet strangers and write poems
C．chat to friends，family and strangers
2． What does anonymity (para．2)mean
A．The state of being unknown． B．The state of being friendly．
C．The state of being on Line．
3．What types of topics will people discuss on the Internet
A．Sports，types of music，styles of art． B．All kinds of topics．
C．Only topics that the Internet allows．
4．What is an example of problems with going online
A．Some people may send you poems copied from magazines．
B．Your credit card details could be stolen．
C．There might be no one to chat with．
B
“China now has 350 million smokers，accounting for （占）one-third of the world total．Chinese smokers now become addicted to nicotine at the age of 19，five years earlier than the average starting age of 24 in 1 997，”a report said a couple of years ago．
Of the 1.1 billion smokers all over the world．more than 800 million are in developing countries．And as the world's largest developing country, China also has the largest number of smokers．
Some frightening facts start to appear when we examine who China’s smokers are．Of the 350 million addicts（瘾君子），more than 100 million are under the age of 18，while more than 50 percent of male teachers and doctors are smokers．
Such a high rate of addicts among male teachers and doctors will certainly have a bad impact（影响） on the young generation．
Teachers are usually expected to be role models for students who tend to consider whatever they do is fight and follow their example．It is very likely that the number of teenage smokers will increase in the near future unless measures are taken to forbid teachers from smoking in front of their students or designate （指定）schools as no-smoking zones．
What is truly puzzling is why so many doctors smoke．They are aware of（意识到） the results of the habit，such as high blood pressure and lung cancer．Their example only helps justify （证明…合理）the addiction of so many others．
If educated people set an example by stopping smoking at least in public places．it would be much easier to drive home the notion（观点） that it is uncivilized（不文明的） to smoke in public places．。
In China，there should also be a national law to ban smoking in public places．These would make a massive （大量的）contribution to cutting the number of people in China who are smoking themselves into early grave（墓）．
5．Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage
A．Time to Kick（去除） the Habit B．China Bans Smoking in Public Places
C．Smokers in China D．Make People Aware of Smoking
6．In developing countries，China has the largest number of smokers，which covers ．
A．one-third of its total B．one-eighth of its total
C．1ess than half its total D．more than half its total
7．In the writer's opinion，who have influenced young smokers，especially those under l8
A．Parents。 B．Teachers only．
C．Advertisements． D．Teachers and doctors．
8．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage
A．In China．those who get into the habit of smoking seem to be younger and younger．
B．More than half of the teachers and doctors are smokers in China．
C．The writer suggests schools should be designated as no-smoking zones．
D．It is of great benefit （好处）to forbid smoking in public places.
C
It was a winter morning，just a couple of weeks before Christmas．While most people were warming up their cars，Trevor，my husband，had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work．On arrival，he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does．After putting in 10 hours of labor，he returned to find his bike gone．
The bike，a black Kona 18 speed，was our only transport（交通工具）．Trevor used it to get to work，putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family．And the bike was also used to get groceries（杂货），saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live．
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that 1 wrote to the newspaper and told them our story．Shortly after that，several people in our area offered to help．One wonderful stranger even bought a bike，then called my husband to pick it up．Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job．It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before．People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so．This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened（强化） our faith（信念） in humanity(人性)as a whole．And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we，too，can share with others．No matter how big or how small，an act of kindness shows that someone cares．And the results can be everlasting．
9．Why was the bike so important to the couple
A．The man’s job was bike racing． B．It was their only possession（财产）．
C．It was a nice Kona 18 speed． D．They used it for work and daily life．
10．We can infer from the passage that ．
A．the couple worked 60 hours a week B．people were busy before Christmas
C．the stranger brought over the bike D．life was hard for the young family
11．How did people get to know the couple’s problem
A．From radio broadcasts． B．From a newspaper．
C．From TV news． D．From a stranger．
12．Which of the following is true
A．The author's husband often parked the bike outside the back door．
B．The author used to get to work by bike．
C．Several strangers offered bikes to them，but they only accepted one of them．
D．Somebody had stolen their bike before，but soon returned it to the author．
D
Most people know that the United States is made up of fifty states．However, few people know a lot about all fifty of them．Sufjan Stevens is a young American musician．He wants to change this situation．
Sufjan Stevens plans to make an album about each of the fifty American states．During college he
played in several musical groups and recorded an album of his own music．However, he wanted to be a
writer, not a musician．So after college he moved to New York City to study writing．
In New York．Stevens had trouble writing stories．He discovered that he missed music．He also
discovered that most of the stories he did write were about his home state of Michigan．So，Sufjan Stevens decided to make an album of songs about Michigan．
Greetings from Michigan: The Great Lakes State was released（发行、发布） in 2003．The album was a big success．Many young people and music critics （评论家）liked it．Before long，Stevens announced that he wanted to make an album for every state．He called it his “fifty states project”．
Stevens chose Illinois as his next state．He read many books about Illinois．He studied police documents and old newspapers．He talked to people who live in the state．The CD Illinois was released in 2005．Critics loved the album．It won many awards．Illinois became popular at colleges throughout the United States．People said the CD sounded different from anything else they had ever heard．
Sufjan Stevens is keeping his next state a secret from reporters．People have said that he is writing about Oregon，Rhode Island，or Minnesota．However, no one but Stevens knows for sure．
13．Why does Sufian Stevens plan to make an album about each of the American states
