第三部分： 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
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）
He has lived through various dangers but time may be running out for the Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat.
On September 11, Israel (以色列) announced its decision to remove him, following several Palestinian suicide bomb attacks on Israel. “He should be punished for the killings,” and Israeli official said, “He has done nothing to stop the terrorist groups.”
But the decision has angered many other countries. China said that Arafat is the true leader, elected by the Palestinian people, and removing him would harm the peace in the Middle East. This idea is shared by other governments.
Arafat himself said: “They can kill me, but never get me out of my country.” He has spent most of his life in danger as the most important aim of Israel. But, just like a cat with nine lives, Arafat escaped every time.
For years he has made a practice of sleeping in a different bed each night, thinking a moving person is harder to hit. In 1985, Israel sent fighter planes to kill Arafat. The wild bombing destroyed his office in Tunis but Arafat himself was unhurt. In 1992, the aircraft in which he was flying over north Africa broke in two during a crash landing. The pilot was killed but he managed to remain alive.
What is so unbelievable is that he always remains calm in great danger.
Israeli tanks and planes attacked his office building in Ramallah in December, 2001. When they saw the attackers coming, Arafat’s bodyguards ignored his orders to stay still and carried him to safety underground. Seconds later, several bombs were dropped nearby. Though safe, his bodyguards were so frightened that they were wet in sweat.
But, Arafat, with Israeli tanks only 200 meters away, showed no fear at all. He stayed in the damaged office, talking by phone with foreign leaders in hope of preventing further attacks from Israel.
All these experiences have made him a beloved leader to his people and an enemy to some others.
But has he used up the last of his nine lives Only time will tell.
56．Which of the following statements cannot be used to describe Arafat
A．He went to visit a few foreign countries last year.
B．He is not afraid of death in face of his enemy.
C．His office used to be in Tunis.
D．He remained alive during an air crash in 1992.
57．According to the passage, which statement is true
A．In 1992, Arafat’s plane crashed in south Africa.
B．Israeli officers thought Arafat himself sent the terrorist groups to Israel.
C．China is the only country against Israel’s decision of removing Arafat.
D．Being Palestinian leader, Arafat would rather die in his own country than be driven away from his people.
58．What did the author mean by saying “just like a cat has nine lives” when he talked about Arafat
A．Arafat is as clever as a cat.
B．Arafat can live as long as a cat.
C．Arafat can stay alive after accidents or disasters as if he has nine lives.
D．Arafat should have died for a least 8 times.
59．The underlined word “ignore” can be replaced by .
A．obey the instructions
B．take no notice of
C．pay much attention to
D．give out orders
60．What’s the writer’s attitude towards Arafat’s future, judging from the last sentence of the passage
A．Hopeful.
B．Interesting.
C．Satisfactory.
D．Doubtful.
（B）
With a good shopping position and the right amount（数量）of money,any educated person ought to be able to make a living out of a bookshop.It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the cornet shop.But the hours of work ard very long ——I was only doing a part time job,but my boss put in a seventy-hour week,besides regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books.
The real reason why I should not like to be back in the book trade for life,however,is that while I was in it I lost my love of books.A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books,and that gives him a dislike for them.There was a time when I really did love books——loved the sight and smell and feel of them ——if they were fifty or more years old,that is.Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot of them on sale for several pounds.There is a peculiar flavour（独特的味道）about the unexpected books you pick up in that kind of collection:little known eighteenth-century poets,or out-of-date geography books.For occasional（偶尔的）reading ——in your bath,for example,or late at night when you are too tired to go to bed ——there is nothing as good as a very old picture story-book.
But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books.Seen in a mass,five or ten thousand at a time,books were dull and even a little tiresome.Nowadays I do buy one occasionally,but only if it is a book that I want to read and can’t borrow,and I never buy rubbish.
61.According to the passage,________is one of the necessary conditions to run a bookshop.
A.an educated shop-owner B.a good position at a street corner
C.a regular journey out of the shop D.the force of large chain-stores
62.The author should not like to be back as a bookseller for life because _______.
A.he hated his job of selling books B.selling books was only a part-time job
C.the books in the shop gave him a dislike
D.he was unable to be honest about the books he sold
63.The books preferred by the author should be those __________.
A.stories making readers sleepless B.valuable ones bought on sale
C.peculiar ones with great expectation D.geography ones from the eighteenth century
64.The author will only buy new books __________.
A.if he feels dull and tired B.after he gives up his job as a bookseller
C.which are interesting but hard to borrow D.when he throws away old ones
（C）

Animation means making things which are lifeless come alive and move.
Since earliest times, people have always been astonished by movement. But not until this century have we managed to take control of movement, to record it, and in the case of animation, to retranslate it and recreate it. To do all this, we use a movie camera and a projector（放映机）.
In the world of cartoon animation, nothing is impossible. You can make the characters do exactly what you want them to do.
A famous early cartoon character was Felix the Cat, created by Pat Sullivan in America in the early nineteen twenties. Felix was a wonderful cat. He could do all sorts of things no natural cat could do like taking off his tail, using it as a handle and then putting it back.
Most of the great early animators lived and worked in America, the home of the moving picture industry. The famous Walt Disney cartoon characters came to life after 1928. Popeye the Sailor and his girl friend Olive Oyo were born at Max Ficischer in 1933.
But to be an animator, you don’t have to be a professional（专业人士）. It is possible for anyone to make a simple animated film without using a camera at all. All you have to do is to draw directly on to an empty film and then run the film through a projector.
69．What does the passage mainly discuss
A. Animal world.
B. Movie camera.
C. Cartoon making.
D. Movement.
70．Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. People were unable to cause the movement to last or record it in the last century.
B. Pat Sullivan was a famous early cartoon character.
C. It is impossible to make cartoon characters do what they are designed to do.
D. In ancient times people were surprised by movement.
71．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. Walt Disney’s cartoon characters were born earlier than Pat Sullivan’s
B. only professionals can create cartoon characters
C. Popeye the Sailor and Olive Oyo were famous cartoonists
D. the cartoon industry started in the United States
72．Which of the following statements best describes the author’s attitude towards cartoon making
A. Cartoon making is an easy job. Anyone can do it.
B. Only trained people can be employed in cartoon making industry.
C. Anyone can make cartoons under the instructions of professionals.
D. Cartoon making is no easy job. You have to spend much time drawing onto the empty film.

Dear Mr. Principal,
I am a senior student of our school. I’d like to say something about the canteen service in our school.
In general, the service is satisfactory. The hall is clean and tidy. The dishes look inviting and taste delicious as well. What’s more, the workers there treat us as their friends, which makes us feel very happy.
However, we feel the price of the meals is a little too high. Besides, we can only have a limited variety of dishes with little change every week. In addition, we often have to stand in line for a long time before we can get the meal. You could understand how precious time is to us students. Therefore, may I suggest something be done to solve the problems so that we can all enjoy our meals at school
Thanks for your consideration.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua

第三部分： 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
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）
He has lived through various dangers but time may be running out for the Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat.
On September 11, Israel (以色列) announced its decision to remove him, following several Palestinian suicide bomb attacks on Israel. “He should be punished for the killings,” and Israeli official said, “He has done nothing to stop the terrorist groups.”
But the decision has angered many other countries. China said that Arafat is the true leader, elected by the Palestinian people, and removing him would harm the peace in the Middle East. This idea is shared by other governments.
Arafat himself said: “They can kill me, but never get me out of my country.” He has spent most of his life in danger as the most important aim of Israel. But, just like a cat with nine lives, Arafat escaped every time.
For years he has made a practice of sleeping in a different bed each night, thinking a moving person is harder to hit. In 1985, Israel sent fighter planes to kill Arafat. The wild bombing destroyed his office in Tunis but Arafat himself was unhurt. In 1992, the aircraft in which he was flying over north Africa broke in two during a crash landing. The pilot was killed but he managed to remain alive.
What is so unbelievable is that he always remains calm in great danger.
Israeli tanks and planes attacked his office building in Ramallah in December, 2001. When they saw the attackers coming, Arafat’s bodyguards ignored his orders to stay still and carried him to safety underground. Seconds later, several bombs were dropped nearby. Though safe, his bodyguards were so frightened that they were wet in sweat.
But, Arafat, with Israeli tanks only 200 meters away, showed no fear at all. He stayed in the damaged office, talking by phone with foreign leaders in hope of preventing further attacks from Israel.
All these experiences have made him a beloved leader to his people and an enemy to some others.
But has he used up the last of his nine lives Only time will tell.
56．Which of the following statements cannot be used to describe Arafat
A．He went to visit a few foreign countries last year.
B．He is not afraid of death in face of his enemy.
C．His office used to be in Tunis.
D．He remained alive during an air crash in 1992.
57．According to the passage, which statement is true
A．In 1992, Arafat’s plane crashed in south Africa.
B．Israeli officers thought Arafat himself sent the terrorist groups to Israel.
C．China is the only country against Israel’s decision of removing Arafat.
D．Being Palestinian leader, Arafat would rather die in his own country than be driven away from his people.
58．What did the author mean by saying “just like a cat has nine lives” when he talked about Arafat
A．Arafat is as clever as a cat.
B．Arafat can live as long as a cat.
C．Arafat can stay alive after accidents or disasters as if he has nine lives.
D．Arafat should have died for a least 8 times.
59．The underlined word “ignore” can be replaced by .
A．obey the instructions
B．take no notice of
C．pay much attention to
D．give out orders
60．What’s the writer’s attitude towards Arafat’s future, judging from the last sentence of the passage
A．Hopeful.
B．Interesting.
C．Satisfactory.
D．Doubtful.
（B）
With a good shopping position and the right amount（数量）of money,any educated person ought to be able to make a living out of a bookshop.It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the cornet shop.But the hours of work ard very long ——I was only doing a part time job,but my boss put in a seventy-hour week,besides regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books.
The real reason why I should not like to be back in the book trade for life,however,is that while I was in it I lost my love of books.A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books,and that gives him a dislike for them.There was a time when I really did love books——loved the sight and smell and feel of them ——if they were fifty or more years old,that is.Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot of them on sale for several pounds.There is a peculiar flavour（独特的味道）about the unexpected books you pick up in that kind of collection:little known eighteenth-century poets,or out-of-date geography books.For occasional（偶尔的）reading ——in your bath,for example,or late at night when you are too tired to go to bed ——there is nothing as good as a very old picture story-book.
But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books.Seen in a mass,five or ten thousand at a time,books were dull and even a little tiresome.Nowadays I do buy one occasionally,but only if it is a book that I want to read and can’t borrow,and I never buy rubbish.
61.According to the passage,________is one of the necessary conditions to run a bookshop.
A.an educated shop-owner B.a good position at a street corner
C.a regular journey out of the shop D.the force of large chain-stores
62.The author should not like to be back as a bookseller for life because _______.
A.he hated his job of selling books B.selling books was only a part-time job
C.the books in the shop gave him a dislike
D.he was unable to be honest about the books he sold
63.The books preferred by the author should be those __________.
A.stories making readers sleepless B.valuable ones bought on sale
C.peculiar ones with great expectation D.geography ones from the eighteenth century
64.The author will only buy new books __________.
A.if he feels dull and tired B.after he gives up his job as a bookseller
C.which are interesting but hard to borrow D.when he throws away old ones
（C）

Animation means making things which are lifeless come alive and move.
Since earliest times, people have always been astonished by movement. But not until this century have we managed to take control of movement, to record it, and in the case of animation, to retranslate it and recreate it. To do all this, we use a movie camera and a projector（放映机）.
In the world of cartoon animation, nothing is impossible. You can make the characters do exactly what you want them to do.
A famous early cartoon character was Felix the Cat, created by Pat Sullivan in America in the early nineteen twenties. Felix was a wonderful cat. He could do all sorts of things no natural cat could do like taking off his tail, using it as a handle and then putting it back.
Most of the great early animators lived and worked in America, the home of the moving picture industry. The famous Walt Disney cartoon characters came to life after 1928. Popeye the Sailor and his girl friend Olive Oyo were born at Max Ficischer in 1933.
But to be an animator, you don’t have to be a professional（专业人士）. It is possible for anyone to make a simple animated film without using a camera at all. All you have to do is to draw directly on to an empty film and then run the film through a projector.

A. Animal world.
B. Movie camera.
C. Cartoon making.
D. Movement.
70．Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. People were unable to cause the movement to last or record it in the last century.
B. Pat Sullivan was a famous early cartoon character.
C. It is impossible to make cartoon characters do what they are designed to do.
D. In ancient times people were surprised by movement.
71．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. Walt Disney’s cartoon characters were born earlier than Pat Sullivan’s
B. only professionals can create cartoon characters
C. Popeye the Sailor and Olive Oyo were famous cartoonists
D. the cartoon industry started in the United States
72．Which of the following statements best describes the author’s attitude towards cartoon making
A. Cartoon making is an easy job. Anyone can do it.
B. Only trained people can be employed in cartoon making industry.
C. Anyone can make cartoons under the instructions of professionals.

第五部分：书面表达
Dear Mr. Principal,
I am a senior student of our school. I’d like to say something about the canteen service in our school.
In general, the service is satisfactory. The hall is clean and tidy. The dishes look inviting and taste delicious as well. What’s more, the workers there treat us as their friends, which makes us feel very happy.
However, we feel the price of the meals is a little too high. Besides, we can only have a limited variety of dishes with little change every week. In addition, we often have to stand in line for a long time before we can get the meal. You could understand how precious time is to us students. Therefore, may I suggest something be done to solve the problems so that we can all enjoy our meals at school
Thanks for your consideration.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
