IV. 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A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
We still don’t understand the influence of the mind’s power over the body, nor do we understand why there should be such power. All we can say for certain is that the mind does have power over the body in very many different ways.
If a man is told that he is at the North Pole and he believes what he is told, he’ll show physical signs which suggest that his body is reacting as though he were at the North Pole. He’ll go pale and shiver. When the film Lawrence of Arabia was shown, cinema managers around the world reported that the sales of ice cream rocketed. The endless desert scenes had made the moviegoers feel uncomfortably hot.
Hypnotists use the power of the mind over the body in order to use their influence. The hypnotist must only convince the patient that something is true, and the patient will act accordingly. If he convinces the patient that his arms are as heavy as lead, then the patient will be unable to lift his arms. If he convinces the patient that a piece of ice is a hot iron and he then touches the patient’s skin with the ice, a blister（水泡）will develop. The body will react to the suggestion and not to the reality, and signs of a real burn will appear.
56. From the passage, we can imagine that people watching a film about the North Pole would probably want __________.
A. an ice cream B. a cold shower
C. a hot drink D. a hot iron
57. A hypnotist is supposed to be able to control __________.
A. patients’ bodies B. people’s minds
C. patients’ diseases D. people’s movements
58. The phrase “the reality” refers to __________.
A. a real burn B. a hot iron
C. the touch of ice D. the body’s reaction
59. A good title for this passage would be __________.
A. Mind and Body B. Physical Signs
C. Research on Mind D. The Power of the Mind
B
Chinese cities and towns are expected to absorb about 300 million people from rural areas in 20 years if the urbanization drive maintains a growth of 1 per cent annually.
The massive migration of rural laborers will contribute greatly to the development of cities, Liu He, Vice-minister of the Office of the Central Leading Group of Financial and Economic Affairs, said yesterday.
The urbanization rate currently stands at 1.4 percent, which means that about 20 million farmers become urban residents each year.
Statistics from Liu’s office indicate that nearly 40 percent of farmers annual per capital income last year, about 3,200 yuan (US $ 395), was earned in cities.
But China faces many problems in its urbanization drive, such as low wages and lack of social security for migrant laborers, Liu told the 2006 China Development Forum organized by the State Council Development and Research Centre.
To protect the rights of migrant workers, barriers such as the household registration system ( or hukou) must be removed, suggested Justin Yifu Lin, an economics professor at Peking University.
Liu said China would adopt a step-by-step reform of its decades-old hukou system but suggested that the “green card” system practiced in Shanghai and some other cities-which enables long-term inhabitants to obtain urban hukou—be adopted in more cities.
In 2003, about 110 million surplus laborers left the farming sector; and 61 per cent of the migrant workers, or 69. 1 million, worked in cities, Liu said.
In Wuxi of East China’s Jiangsu Province, for example, about 1.5 million of its 6 million population are from elsewhere. And 100,000—150,000 newcomers settle down in the city each year, he said.
The maximum population the city can accommodate is 8 million, Liu said. “It faces huge pressures on environment, resources, especially water, in the next 10 years.”
60．Which can be the best title for the news
A．Cities to absorb 300 million farmers in 20 years.
B．Rural laborers contribute greatly to the development of cities.
C．Barriers must be removed to protect the rights of migrant workers.
D．China would adopt a step-by-step reform of its decades-old hukou system.
61．If the urbanization rate stands at 1.6%, then how many farmers become urban residents each year
A．About 24m. B．About 22.9m. C．About 32m. D．About 23m.
62．According to the expert, what is the biggest barrier in China’s urbanization
A．Low wages. B．Lack of social security.
C．Household registration system. D．Poor education.
63．When will Wuxi reach its maximum population
A．At least 20 years. B．At most 14 years.
C．At least 10 years. D．Less than 10 years.

A German company was concerned about talks in Moscow trying to sell some 100 million dollars worth of equipment to a Russian State company. Talks went smoothly but differences remained. So Martin Bayer himself, the CEO of the German Company, decided to come to Moscow to head the talks. Besides caring about his business, the CEO wanted to go to Russia to hunt bears.
Martin Bayer was one of the greatest hunters of our time (and the Russians knew about it). He went to the Sahara more than hundred times and hunted lions, crocodiles; he hunted polar bears in the North Pole and tigers in the rain forests of India. But he had never hunted Russian bears.
So the Russians decided to organize a bear hunt for Mr. Bayer to sweeten the talks. This wasn't a simple task. Some people in the west still believe that bears may be found and seen everywhere in Russian cities just like squirrels may be seen in our back yards. This is not true. The closest place one may find bears in the wild is maybe 2,500 miles away from Moscow. However, a solution was quickly found. The Russian businessmen went to Moscow Circus（马戏团）and for $2,000 bought a very old bear. This bear used to amuse and amaze audiences in many countries for 30 years, but got and looked too old, and was retired.
“Be careful, the Russian bears are very dangerous, and frightening,” they told to Mr. Bayer. “If compared to the Russian bears, your African lions are nothing more than harmless cats.” The bear was brought to a forest 50 miles from Moscow and was left there. Mr. Bayer was told that bears were plentiful in that forest and that many cattle and even people had been eaten in the surrounding villages.
Meanwhile, an 18-year old female drove through the forest on a motorcycle and suddenly saw a bear (no bears had been seen in those places for 200 years). She was frightened, fell, left her helmet and her motorcycle and ran away.
Mr. Bayer was excited and ready to hunt. This could become the most successful part of his extraordinary hunting experience. The next moment Mr. Bayer saw a bear in a helmet driving on a motorcycle through the forest in front of him. The bear had a happy expression on his face, as he was doing something he had been doing in the circus for 30 years: circling on a motorcycle!
Mr. Bayer lives in a private mental institution near Hamburg happily ever after. The equipment was never sold to Russia. It was sold to Iraq instead.
68. Why did the Russians invite Mr. Bayer to hunt bears
A. Russian bears are famous for their cruelty.
B. They managed to find a bear for hunting.
C. They expected the trade to be successful.
D. There was a bear in Moscow Circus.
69. Why did the Russians say “Be careful, the Russian bears are very dangerous, and frightening”
A. To tell Mr. Bayer that many people had been killed by bears.
B. To make Mr. Bayer feel the hunting really challenging.
C. To warn Mr. Bayer to mind his safety while hunting.
D. To tell Mr. Bayer that the bear is really dangerous.
70. We can infer from the last paragraph that __________.
A. Mr. Bayer has gone mad
B. the bear injured him badly
C. he has worked in a mental institution since then
D. the trade has gone smoothly between Russian and Iraq
71. Which would be the best title of the passage
A. Mr. Bayer, a Brave Hunter
B. Russian Bears, Dangerous Animals
C. Don’t Hunt in Russia
D. Don’t Deal with the Russians

Coca-Cola co., often viewed as a symbol of modern American culture, said on Thursday it had acquired a lost 1931 Painting it commissioned from the famous U. S. artist Norman Rockwell.
“The Barefoot Boy” was one of six Rockwell oil paintings commissioned by the soft drink giant between 1928 and 1935. Copies of the painting appeared on nearly 2million Coca-Cola calendars, on posters and in window displays.
The painting, which shows a grinning（露齿笑）boy in straw hat and suspenders（吊带裤）holding a bottle of Coke and a sandwich, disappeared from public view shortly after it was produced. It was recently discovered in the hands of a retired Virginia executive.
Coca-Cola, the world’s No. 1 soft drink company, did not disclose how much it paid for the work, but did say its value was in line with other Rockwell pieces.
“The Barefoot Boy,” however, is believed to be worth a little bit more that the $ 345,000 recently paid for “The Dugout,” a 1948 Rockwell oil painting.
“This is an exciting and important link to our heritage（传统）by the great artist Norman Rockwell and is reminding of the Coca-Cola Co.’s deep connection over more than a century with the people who enjoy our products,” said Coca-Cola Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Douglas Daft.
Rockwell, once criticized by art critics as an over-commercial lightweight, gained widespread fame in the 1930s and 1940s for works that often focused on the slow ebb and flow of life in rural America.
He died in 1978 at the age of 84 Coca-Cola said it was possible “The Barefoot Boy” would be displayed in its World of Coke Museum in Atlanta. The company has previously acquired two of the six Rockwell originals it commissioned.
It said it was still searching for the three missing Rockwell originals.
72．According to the passage, how many oil paintings did Rockwell paint for Coca-Cola
A．One. B．Three. C. Six. D．Nine.
73．Why did Coca-Cola have those paintings painted at that time
A．To show good will to society.
B．To show the artistic taste of Coca-Cola.
C．To use them in advertisements.
D．To show off its financial strength.
74．Which of the following statements about Rockwell’s work is true
A．“The Dugout” was painted for Coca-Cola by Rockwell.
B．Coco-Cola paid Rockwell $ 345,000 for “The Dugout”.
C．Coca-Cola sent “The Barefoot Boy” to a Virginia executive.
D．Rockwell’s early paintings were mainly commercial.
75．Why is Coca-Cola trying to find the paintings
A．Because those paintings are of great historical value and worth collecting.
B．Because those paintings reflect the connection between Coca-Cola and its consumers.
C．Because they were painted by Rockwell ,a famous painter ,especially for Coca-Cola.
D．Because Coca-Cola needs them in its World of Coke Museum in Atlanta.
