第二部分 阅读理解(共20小题，满分40分)
A
I was born when my father and mother were on their way to Nash, a lonely place where they were to meet with hardship and difficulties they both liked this land very much, which might have best explained why they moved from Missouri to such a town in western Kansas. They did most of their shopping in Nash, but before Nash was built, they shipped at the little town of Moran, where there was a small grocery store.
I remember when the railroad came to Nash, when the first telephones came, and the first cars. We lived six miles from town so we missed out meeting trains. My mother was sick when I was small, so I did a lot of the household chores, even doing the laundry, as I was the oldest ,but I never worked outside with my five brothers. I remember going to school with my brothers. When we played basketball, we played outside, and the girls wore skirts and bloomers, and got along fine. I liked spelling matches, and we competed with other schools once or twice a month.
I married Herm Messenger, a farmer in 1971. Eleven children were born to us, four boys and seven girls, four dead at birth, one pair of twins, Paul and Pauline. However, Pauline died when she was nineteen months old. My first washing machine was operated by hand, pushing the handle back and forth. Later, I got a machine with an electric motor. My first machine with a wringer(绞拧机)was a kind of a joke, as Herm took it to the church, and put it on the Christmas tree for me. That might not be exciting to a housewife today, but I thought it was!
56. From the passage we can learn that the writer’s parents .
A. had the first child unexpectedly B. liked Missouri very much
C. had a hard time in Nash D. had to shop a great deal
57. What can we know about the author in the second paragraph
A. She saw for herself first trains, first telephones and first cars.
B. She played, worked and went to school with his brothers.
C. She enjoyed winning the spelling matches when at school.
D. She did a lot of household chores when she was small.
58. In the last paragraph the author suggests that .
A. the way her husband put a wringer on a tree was funny.
B. she was excited when she received the wringer from her husband
C. her husband was fond of playing a joke on her
D. her first washing machine was electrically run
B
59. What does Passage① tell us about the boy
A. He was injured in the head when he was 14.
B. He has waited for the payout for a long time.
C. He has lived the same place since the accident.
D. He was run over by a taxi when riding on the pavement.
60. What can we learn about Lee and Collier counties from P assage②
A. They both became safe places.
B. They won the same place in a race.
C. They had the same number of accidents.
D. They joined hands in reducing accidents.
61. Which passage would give more information on the prevention of road accidents
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
C
Throughout history soldiers have fought bloody battles in order to control the high ground. There is no doubt that this is a tactical (战术的) necessity. Standing above your enemy is an advantage that often leads to victory.
Nowadays, high ground does not just mean hill-tops. It also means space, which has become an increasingly important part of military strategy (军事战略).
With its more advanced satellite technologies, America is the major power in space. And now the US Air Force has put into service a new weapon designed to jam enemy satellite communications. It is an important step toward US control of space.
The so-called Counter Communications System(反卫星通信系统)was declared operational on November 1. The ground-based system uses electromagnetic radio frequencies (无线电磁波) to stop enemy satellites working on a short-term basis.
“A short-term effect ensures that during the time of need, the enemy’s space-based capability (能力) is reduced,” said a US military official. “Following the time of need, their capabilities can return to its original state.”
The system is made up of an antenna (天线), transmitters (发射机) and receivers and can be easily transported around in a vehicle.
To control space was one of four aims of a national space policy started by former president Bill Clinton in 1996. The goal is to make sure US forces can rely on space-based services and to deny an enemy any similar benefits.
The US military has experimented with several “anti-satellite” weapons, including lasers, to destroy or damage enemy units.
Theresa Hitchens, vice president of the Centre for Defence Information in Washington, welcomed the new system as long as it does not create rubbish that could threaten global use of space. She believed it should not destroy satellites, only stop them working for a while.
Unfortunately, it seems that we are not going to limit our goal for ‘space control’ to non-violent systems,” she said, raising the danger of a space arms race.
To change the balance of power in space the EU and China are working together on the Galileo project. By 2008 the system will be in place as an alternative to the Americans’ global positioning service.
62. What’s the significance（意义）of the Counter Communications System to the US
A. It can help avoid bloody battles.
B. It can bring the US closer to its goal for “space control”.
C. It can ensure the US forces to depend on space-based services.
D. It can destroy enemy equipment.
63. How does the new system work It affects the enemy by ______.
A. being transported around easily in a vehicle
B. controlling the high ground
C. damaging them
D. blocking their satellite communications
64. One thing that seemed to worry Theresa Hitchens is that the new weapon _____.
A. could increase the danger of a space arms race
B. is not effective enough
C. is not threatening enough
D. might produce dangerous waste
65. What can we infer from the passage
A. New space weapons may be on the way.
B. The US military have never stopped experimenting with anti-satellite weapons.
C. The Galileo Project, when in effect, can match the Counter Communications System in power.
D. In future wars, space battles will decide human’s fate (命运).
D
Microwaves may be great at warming up food, but what about warming people
Using microwaves to directly heat owners of a room would save much of the energy wasted by heating walls and furniture. And despite popular ideas about microwaves, this technique would be safe, according to Charles R. Burlier of the Microwave Research Center in Marlborough, New Hampshire. Low-power microwaves only penetrate (贯穿) the skin (low-power microwave penetration in a ham is about 0.2 inches, for example) and with no negative effects.
To test this idea, Buffler subjected himself to microwaves in a special room using a standard 500-watt, 2459 MHz magnetron (磁控管). He found that a person will start to feel warmth at about 20 milliwatts per square centimeter (mw. / sq. cm. ) ; a satisfactory feeling of warmth occurs between 35 and 50mw. / sq. cm. By comparison, a person standing in noonday summer sun feels the amount of 85 mw. / sq. cm. And a frozen meat pie in your microwave oven receives about 1000 mw. / sq. cm.
In houses of the future, each room could be provided with its own magnetron, says Buffler. When you stepped into the living room, for example, a motion detector would turn on the magnetron, filling the room with low-power microwaves. In the same way that a microwave oven heats up a hamburger, but not the plate it’s on, you would feel warmth from the microwaves without changing the temperature of your coffee table. (You could, however, make your favorite easy chair even more comfortable by treating it with a radiation-absorbing chemical. )
While it might be some time before homeowners are comfortable enough with the idea to set up whole-body microwave heaters in houses, Buffler says microwaves may attract livestock farmers. Lambs that are born outdoors in winter, for example, are frequently lost to cold. Microwaves could warm the lambs safely and quickly.
66. Which of the following can tell the main idea of the passage
A. A new heating system. B. A new microwave oven.
C. A popular technique. D. The magnetron.
67. According to paragraph 2, which of the following does not describe the characteristics of a microwave heater
A. It directly heats people in a room.
B. It heats walls and furniture in a room.
C. It is safe.
D. It saves energy．
68. The test conducted by Buffler shows that when a person feels comfortable warmth, he receives about______.
A. 20 mw. / sq. cm. B. 40 mw. / sq. cm.
C. 60 mw. / sq. cm. D. 85 mw. / sq. cm.
69. According to paragraph 4, which of the following fills the room with low-power microwaves
A. The magnetron. B. The motion detector.
C. The microwave oven. D. The radiation-absorbing chemical.
70. Which of the following statements about microwave heaters would Buffler most probably agree with
A. Microwave heaters will soon be widely used by homeowners.
B. Microwave heaters sometimes make people feel uncomfortable.
C. Perhaps microwave heaters will be first used by livestock farmers, who wish to protect their lambs in winter.
D. Microwave heaters cannot be accepted by the public because they are somewhat unsafe.

Just five hundredths of an inch thick and light golden in color, the Lay’s potato chip seems an unlikely weapon for global control. But its maker, Frito-Lay doesn’t think so. “Potato chips are a snack food for the world, ”said Salman Amin, the company’s head of global marketing. Amin believes there is no corner of the world that can resist the attractions of a Frito-Lay potato chip.
Frito-Lay is the biggest snack maker in America owned by PepsiCo and accounts for over half of the parent company’s $3 billion profits every year. But the US snack food market is largely saturated(饱和), and to grow, the company has to look overseas.
Its strategy rests on two beliefs: first, a global product offers economies of scale(规模) with which local brands cannot compete. And second, consumers in the 21st century are drawn to “global” as a concept. “Global” does not mean products that are consciously regarded as American, but ones that consumers, especially young people, see as part of a modern, innovative (创新的)world in which people are linked across cultures by shared beliefs and tastes. Potato chips are an American invention, but most Chinese, for example, do not know that Frito-Lay is an American company. Instead, Riskey, the company’s research and development head, would hope they associate the brand with the new world of global communications and business. With brand concept a key factor, Riskey ordered a redesign of the Frito-Lay logo(标识). The logo, along with the company’s long-held marketing image of its chips, would help make the company’s global development very easy.
The managers admit that they try to change national eating habits to a food created in America, but they don’t think that means economic imperialism(霸主). “We’re making products in those countries, we’re adapting them to the tas5tes of those countries, building businesses and employing people and changing lives,” said Steve Reinemund, Pepsico’s chief manager.
71. Amin believes that
A. people all over the world enjoy eating their potato chips
B. the light golden color increases the attraction of their potato chips
C. they must find new ways to promote sales in their country
D. potato chips can hardly control the world market
72. What do we learn about Frito-Lay from paragraph
A. It gives half of its profits to its parent company every year.
B. It needs to turn to the world market for development.
C. its products used to be popular among overseas consumers.
D. its development has caused fierce competition in the snack market.
73. one of the concepts on which Frito-Lay bases its development strategy is .
A. consumers worldwide today are attracted by global brands
B. products suiting Chinese consumers’ needs bring more profits
C. local brands cannot compete successfully with American brands
D. products identified as American will have promising market value
74. why did Riskey have the Frito-Lay logo redesigned
A. To suit changing tastes of young consumers.
B. To compete with other American chip producers.
C. To change the company’s long-held marketing image.
D. To promote the company’s strategy of globalization.
75. the passage mainly talks about .
A. Frito-Lay’s global marketing idea
B. Frito-Lay’s sale concept

One possible version:
Nowadays, more and more Chinese people can use English in their daily communication. Some people even speak Chinese mixed with English words. This is a phenomenon worth thinking about.
Some people think it kind of ridiculous. In their opinion, it makes no sense in helping people learn English. However, others, especially the youngsters, are fond of this way. They think it of special help in expressing themselves.
In my opinion, if you really want to improve your English, you’d better speak all in English, though not very fluently. You should read more, listen more and speak more. Most important of all, you must remember more words because vocabulary is the basis. Only in this way can you freely communicate with people. (108 words)
① Brain-injured boy set for ￡1.75m payout
A YOUNGSTER who was knocked off his tricycle by a taxi and left with a serious brain injury is set to be awarded ￡1.75 million.
Fourteen-years old George Currie, from Dalkeith, was living in County Durham with his parents Allister and Paula at the time of the accident in September 1993.
George, who was then three years old, was riding his small tricycle along the pavement when he lost control and swerved on to the road into the path of an on-coming taxi.
The driver’s insurance company has now accepted responsibility for the accident and New Caslte Counrt is expected to rule on the payout on Monday.

③ Teens react to new law on driving permit
Lawmakers may hope to make teenage drivers drive more safely, but some local teens behind the wheel feel angry following the passing of Senate Bill 36 last week.
SB 36 is a law that limits times new teen drivers can drive and the number of passengers they can carry.
④ Road accidents take costly toll
Traffic accidents kill more than one million people each year, injure tens of millions more and cost developing countries twice as much as they receive in international aid, the leader of a research body said Wednesday.
The figures have led experts to form an international road safety network to choose the most important research areas, inform policy makers and help develop ways to prevent accidents, particularly in poor nations.

As I glanced at Mark to see how he was doing, he winkled at me. That did it!

第二部分 阅读理解(共20小题，满分40分)
A
I was born when my father and mother were on their way to Nash, a lonely place where they were to meet with hardship and difficulties they both liked this land very much, which might have best explained why they moved from Missouri to such a town in western Kansas. They did most of their shopping in Nash, but before Nash was built, they shipped at the little town of Moran, where there was a small grocery store.
I remember when the railroad came to Nash, when the first telephones came, and the first cars. We lived six miles from town so we missed out meeting trains. My mother was sick when I was small, so I did a lot of the household chores, even doing the laundry, as I was the oldest ,but I never worked outside with my five brothers. I remember going to school with my brothers. When we played basketball, we played outside, and the girls wore skirts and bloomers, and got along fine. I liked spelling matches, and we competed with other schools once or twice a month.
I married Herm Messenger, a farmer in 1971. Eleven children were born to us, four boys and seven girls, four dead at birth, one pair of twins, Paul and Pauline. However, Pauline died when she was nineteen months old. My first washing machine was operated by hand, pushing the handle back and forth. Later, I got a machine with an electric motor. My first machine with a wringer(绞拧机)was a kind of a joke, as Herm took it to the church, and put it on the Christmas tree for me. That might not be exciting to a housewife today, but I thought it was!
56. From the passage we can learn that the writer’s parents .
A. had the first child unexpectedly B. liked Missouri very much
C. had a hard time in Nash D. had to shop a great deal
57. What can we know about the author in the second paragraph
A. She saw for herself first trains, first telephones and first cars.
B. She played, worked and went to school with his brothers.
C. She enjoyed winning the spelling matches when at school.
D. She did a lot of household chores when she was small.
58. In the last paragraph the author suggests that .
A. the way her husband put a wringer on a tree was funny.
B. she was excited when she received the wringer from her husband
C. her husband was fond of playing a joke on her
D. her first washing machine was electrically run
B
59. What does Passage① tell us about the boy
A. He was injured in the head when he was 14.
B. He has waited for the payout for a long time.
C. He has lived the same place since the accident.
D. He was run over by a taxi when riding on the pavement.
60. What can we learn about Lee and Collier counties from P assage②
A. They both became safe places.
B. They won the same place in a race.
C. They had the same number of accidents.
D. They joined hands in reducing accidents.
61. Which passage would give more information on the prevention of road accidents
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
C
Throughout history soldiers have fought bloody battles in order to control the high ground. There is no doubt that this is a tactical (战术的) necessity. Standing above your enemy is an advantage that often leads to victory.
Nowadays, high ground does not just mean hill-tops. It also means space, which has become an increasingly important part of military strategy (军事战略).
With its more advanced satellite technologies, America is the major power in space. And now the US Air Force has put into service a new weapon designed to jam enemy satellite communications. It is an important step toward US control of space.
The so-called Counter Communications System(反卫星通信系统)was declared operational on November 1. The ground-based system uses electromagnetic radio frequencies (无线电磁波) to stop enemy satellites working on a short-term basis.
“A short-term effect ensures that during the time of need, the enemy’s space-based capability (能力) is reduced,” said a US military official. “Following the time of need, their capabilities can return to its original state.”
The system is made up of an antenna (天线), transmitters (发射机) and receivers and can be easily transported around in a vehicle.
To control space was one of four aims of a national space policy started by former president Bill Clinton in 1996. The goal is to make sure US forces can rely on space-based services and to deny an enemy any similar benefits.
The US military has experimented with several “anti-satellite” weapons, including lasers, to destroy or damage enemy units.
Theresa Hitchens, vice president of the Centre for Defence Information in Washington, welcomed the new system as long as it does not create rubbish that could threaten global use of space. She believed it should not destroy satellites, only stop them working for a while.
Unfortunately, it seems that we are not going to limit our goal for ‘space control’ to non-violent systems,” she said, raising the danger of a space arms race.
To change the balance of power in space the EU and China are working together on the Galileo project. By 2008 the system will be in place as an alternative to the Americans’ global positioning service.
62. What’s the significance（意义）of the Counter Communications System to the US
A. It can help avoid bloody battles.
B. It can bring the US closer to its goal for “space control”.
C. It can ensure the US forces to depend on space-based services.
D. It can destroy enemy equipment.
63. How does the new system work It affects the enemy by ______.
A. being transported around easily in a vehicle
B. controlling the high ground
C. damaging them
D. blocking their satellite communications
64. One thing that seemed to worry Theresa Hitchens is that the new weapon _____.
A. could increase the danger of a space arms race
B. is not effective enough
C. is not threatening enough
D. might produce dangerous waste
65. What can we infer from the passage
A. New space weapons may be on the way.
B. The US military have never stopped experimenting with anti-satellite weapons.
C. The Galileo Project, when in effect, can match the Counter Communications System in power.
D. In future wars, space battles will decide human’s fate (命运).
D
Microwaves may be great at warming up food, but what about warming people
Using microwaves to directly heat owners of a room would save much of the energy wasted by heating walls and furniture. And despite popular ideas about microwaves, this technique would be safe, according to Charles R. Burlier of the Microwave Research Center in Marlborough, New Hampshire. Low-power microwaves only penetrate (贯穿) the skin (low-power microwave penetration in a ham is about 0.2 inches, for example) and with no negative effects.
To test this idea, Buffler subjected himself to microwaves in a special room using a standard 500-watt, 2459 MHz magnetron (磁控管). He found that a person will start to feel warmth at about 20 milliwatts per square centimeter (mw. / sq. cm. ) ; a satisfactory feeling of warmth occurs between 35 and 50mw. / sq. cm. By comparison, a person standing in noonday summer sun feels the amount of 85 mw. / sq. cm. And a frozen meat pie in your microwave oven receives about 1000 mw. / sq. cm.
In houses of the future, each room could be provided with its own magnetron, says Buffler. When you stepped into the living room, for example, a motion detector would turn on the magnetron, filling the room with low-power microwaves. In the same way that a microwave oven heats up a hamburger, but not the plate it’s on, you would feel warmth from the microwaves without changing the temperature of your coffee table. (You could, however, make your favorite easy chair even more comfortable by treating it with a radiation-absorbing chemical. )
While it might be some time before homeowners are comfortable enough with the idea to set up whole-body microwave heaters in houses, Buffler says microwaves may attract livestock farmers. Lambs that are born outdoors in winter, for example, are frequently lost to cold. Microwaves could warm the lambs safely and quickly.
66. Which of the following can tell the main idea of the passage
A. A new heating system. B. A new microwave oven.
C. A popular technique. D. The magnetron.
67. According to paragraph 2, which of the following does not describe the characteristics of a microwave heater
A. It directly heats people in a room.
B. It heats walls and furniture in a room.
C. It is safe.
D. It saves energy．
68. The test conducted by Buffler shows that when a person feels comfortable warmth, he receives about______.
A. 20 mw. / sq. cm. B. 40 mw. / sq. cm.
C. 60 mw. / sq. cm. D. 85 mw. / sq. cm.
69. According to paragraph 4, which of the following fills the room with low-power microwaves
A. The magnetron. B. The motion detector.
C. The microwave oven. D. The radiation-absorbing chemical.
70. Which of the following statements about microwave heaters would Buffler most probably agree with
A. Microwave heaters will soon be widely used by homeowners.
B. Microwave heaters sometimes make people feel uncomfortable.
C. Perhaps microwave heaters will be first used by livestock farmers, who wish to protect their lambs in winter.
D. Microwave heaters cannot be accepted by the public because they are somewhat unsafe.

Just five hundredths of an inch thick and light golden in color, the Lay’s potato chip seems an unlikely weapon for global control. But its maker, Frito-Lay doesn’t think so. “Potato chips are a snack food for the world, ”said Salman Amin, the company’s head of global marketing. Amin believes there is no corner of the world that can resist the attractions of a Frito-Lay potato chip.
Frito-Lay is the biggest snack maker in America owned by PepsiCo and accounts for over half of the parent company’s $3 billion profits every year. But the US snack food market is largely saturated(饱和), and to grow, the company has to look overseas.
Its strategy rests on two beliefs: first, a global product offers economies of scale(规模) with which local brands cannot compete. And second, consumers in the 21st century are drawn to “global” as a concept. “Global” does not mean products that are consciously regarded as American, but ones that consumers, especially young people, see as part of a modern, innovative (创新的)world in which people are linked across cultures by shared beliefs and tastes. Potato chips are an American invention, but most Chinese, for example, do not know that Frito-Lay is an American company. Instead, Riskey, the company’s research and development head, would hope they associate the brand with the new world of global communications and business. With brand concept a key factor, Riskey ordered a redesign of the Frito-Lay logo(标识). The logo, along with the company’s long-held marketing image of its chips, would help make the company’s global development very easy.
The managers admit that they try to change national eating habits to a food created in America, but they don’t think that means economic imperialism(霸主). “We’re making products in those countries, we’re adapting them to the tas5tes of those countries, building businesses and employing people and changing lives,” said Steve Reinemund, Pepsico’s chief manager.
71. Amin believes that
A. people all over the world enjoy eating their potato chips
B. the light golden color increases the attraction of their potato chips
C. they must find new ways to promote sales in their country
D. potato chips can hardly control the world market
72. What do we learn about Frito-Lay from paragraph
A. It gives half of its profits to its parent company every year.
B. It needs to turn to the world market for development.
C. its products used to be popular among overseas consumers.
D. its development has caused fierce competition in the snack market.
73. one of the concepts on which Frito-Lay bases its development strategy is .
A. consumers worldwide today are attracted by global brands
B. products suiting Chinese consumers’ needs bring more profits
C. local brands cannot compete successfully with American brands
D. products identified as American will have promising market value
74. why did Riskey have the Frito-Lay logo redesigned
A. To suit changing tastes of young consumers.
B. To compete with other American chip producers.
C. To change the company’s long-held marketing image.
D. To promote the company’s strategy of globalization.
75. the passage mainly talks about .
A. Frito-Lay’s global marketing idea
B. Frito-Lay’s sale concept

One possible version:
Nowadays, more and more Chinese people can use English in their daily communication. Some people even speak Chinese mixed with English words. This is a phenomenon worth thinking about.
Some people think it kind of ridiculous. In their opinion, it makes no sense in helping people learn English. However, others, especially the youngsters, are fond of this way. They think it of special help in expressing themselves.
In my opinion, if you really want to improve your English, you’d better speak all in English, though not very fluently. You should read more, listen more and speak more. Most important of all, you must remember more words because vocabulary is the basis. Only in this way can you freely communicate with people. (108 words)
① Brain-injured boy set for ￡1.75m payout
A YOUNGSTER who was knocked off his tricycle by a taxi and left with a serious brain injury is set to be awarded ￡1.75 million.

③ Teens react to new law on driving permit
Lawmakers may hope to make teenage drivers drive more safely, but some local teens behind the wheel feel angry following the passing of Senate Bill 36 last week.
SB 36 is a law that limits times new teen drivers can drive and the number of passengers they can carry.
④ Road accidents take costly toll
Traffic accidents kill more than one million people each year, injure tens of millions more and cost developing countries twice as much as they receive in international aid, the leader of a research body said Wednesday.
The figures have led experts to form an international road safety network to choose the most important research areas, inform policy makers and help develop ways to prevent accidents, particularly in poor nations.
