第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
One of the greatest killers in the Western world is heart disease. The death rate from the disease has been increasing at an alarming speed for the past thirty years. Today in Britain, for example, about four hundred people a day die of heart disease. Medical experts know that people can reduce their chances of getting heart disease by exercising regularly, by not smoking, by changing their diets, and by paying more attention to reducing stress (压力) in their work.
However, Western health-care systems are still not paying enough attention to the prevention of the disease. There is a need for more programs to educate the public about the causes and prevention of heart disease. Instead of supporting such programs, however, the U.S. health-care system is spending large sums of money on the surgical (外科的) treatment of the disease after it develops. This emphasis (强调) on treatment clearly has something to do with the technological advances that have taken place in the past ten to fifteen years. In this time, modern technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques. Many operations that were considered impossible or too risky a few years ago are now performed every day in U.S. hospitals. The result has been a huge increase in heart surgery.
Although there is no doubt that heart surgery can help a large number of people, some people point out that the emphasis on the surgical treatment of the disease has three clear disadvantages. First, it attracts interest and money away from the question of prevention. Second, it causes the costs of general hospital care to rise. After hospitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary for modern heart surgery, they must try to get the money they have spent. To do this, they raise costs for all their patients, not just those patients whose treatment requires the equipment. The third disadvantage is that doctors are encouraged to perform surgery―even on patients for whom an operation is unnecessary―because the equipment and expert skills are there. A government office recently stated that major heart surgery was often performed even though its chances of success were low. In one type of heart surgery, for example, only 15 percent of patients improved their conditions after the surgery. However, more than 100,000 of these operations are performed in the United States every year.
71. What effect has modern technology had on medicine according to the writer
A. It has reduced the costs of medical treatment.
B. It has helped save the lives of most patients.
C. It has encouraged doctors to do more heart surgeries.
D. It has helped educate people about the prevention of heart disease.
72.“To do this” (in Paragraph 3) means ______.
A. to help patients recover
B. to increase the number of heart surgeries
C. to get back the money spent on the equipment
D. to buy new equipment for the treatment of heart disease
73.The author would agree that ______.
A. more money should be spent on the prevention of heart disease
B. heart surgery has helped most patients improve their conditions
C. modern technology has made heart surgery more risky than before
D. the public have known a great deal about the causes of heart disease
74.What would be the best title for the passage
A. The Greatest Killer in the West
B. Heart Disease: Treat or Prevent
C. Modern Technology and Heart Surgery
D. Heart Surgery: Advantages and Disadvantages

My parents were in a huge argument, and I was really upset about it . I didn’t know who I should talk with about how I was feeling . So I asked Mom to allow me to stay the night at my best friend’s house . Though I knew I wouldn’t tell her about my parents’ situation, I was looking forward to getting out of the house . I was in the middle of packing up my things when suddenly the power went out in the neighborhood . Mom came to tell me that I should stay with my grandpa until the power came back on .

“What is ” I asked .

And that’s how the most unbelievable friendship between my grandfather and me started . Sitting there in the dark , we talked about our feelings and fears of life—from how fast things change , to how they sometimes don’t change fast enough .

America is a country on the move. In unheard-of(空前的) numbers, people of all ages are exercising their way to better health. According to the latest figures, 59 percent of American adults exercise regularly---up 12 percent from just two years ago and more than double the figure of 25 years ago. Even non-exercises believe they would be more attractive and confident if they were more active.
It is hard not to get the message. The advantages of physical fitness are shown on magazine covers, postage stamps, and television ads for everything from beauty soaps to travel books. Exercise as a part of daily life did not catch on(be popular) until the late 1960s when research by military doctors began to show the health benefits(好处) of doing regular physical exercises. Growing publicity (宣传) for races held in American cities helped fuel a strong interest in the ancient sport of running. Although running has leveled off in recent years as Americans have discovered equally rewarding---and sometimes safer-forms of exercise, such as walking and swimming, running remains the most popular form of exercise.
As the popularity of exercise continues to increase, so does scientific evidence(证据) of its health benefits. The key to fitness is exercising the major muscle groups vigorously (强有力地) enough to approximately double the heart rate and keep it doubled for 20 to 30 minutes at a time. Doing such physical exercises three times or more a week will produce considerable improvements in physical health in about three months.
78. According to the passage, what was the percentage of American adults doing regular
physical exercises two years ago
A. About 70%. B. Nearly 60%. C. Almost 50%. D. More than 12%.
79. A growing interest in sports developed after .
A. research showed their health benefits
B. people got the message from magazine covers and postage stamps
C. scientific evidence of health benefits was shown on TV ads
D. an increasing number of races were held in American cities
80. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the phrase "leveled off"
A. "become very popular" B. "stopped being popular"
C. "reached its lowest level in popularity" D. "stopped increasing in popularity"
81. Which of the following would be the best TITLE for the passage
A. Different Forms of Exercise B. Exercise----The Road to Health
C. Scientific Evidence of Health Benefits D. Running---A Popular Form of Sport
D
Polly Jones lived on a farm .She had lived there all her life, all twelve years of it. Her father ,who managed the farm, had just lifted potato crops. Prices were high; He wanted to sell the crops as quickly as he could.
Polly wandered over the rough field looking for the small potatoes the pickers had accidentally missed. She found one ,then another, then a handful. She was pleased. They were delicious once cooked. Then she caught sight of something else. It looked like a piece of colored stone. Polly picked it up and thought how pretty it was. She could see a pattern on it: a picture of a bird and a part of a leaf. She scraped the soil away around her feet and found that she was standing on what seemed to be a piece of pavement ( 铺路石). Stuck to another piece of stone was something small and round like a button. She realized it was an old coin.
The field was busy the next morning though not with potato workers. In front of the house where the farm machine usually stood were several cars and a police van. A group of distinguished-looking man and women appeared after her father's telephone call. The local TV station had shown some pictures of the field with Polly pointing to the place she had found her pavement. It proved to be of Roman origin and was described as the most exciting thing that had happened in this area since the end of the Second World War. In those days ,American airbase(空军基地) had occupied the site of the potato field.
A week later about 40 students arrived from the local university . That afternoon a truck with equipment arrived. The excavation(digging)was officially under way. Permission had been given and the "dig", as it was called , was expected to last several months. Polly wondered how the everyday work got done with so many strange people around and a cars coming and going all day long. All the unusual activity had made the cows and sheep restless. Her father said their cows produced less milk.
Still, it was interesting and great fun. They had let her keep the gold coin.
From then on, Polly would always walk carefully over potato fields.
82.There were still potatoes in the fields because pickers_______.
A. had left them for Polly on purpose
B. thought they were too small
C. would pick them later
D. had failed to notice them
83.Why did the findings cause excitement
A. Because the coin was priceless
B. Because an ancient Rome site was discovered
C. Because such old coins had been found in American airbase
D. Because few old coins ha been found since the war
84. How did the "dig" affect the farm
A. It reduced milk production
B. It prevented Polly attending class
C. It attracted more farmers to the potato fields
D. It brought the farmers wealth overnight.
85.Which of the following is Not true
A. The gold coin was stuck to another stone Polly found.
B. The next day the field was busy with people picking potatoes.
C. Polly showed the TV station people where she found the pavement
D. America used the site of the potato field as their airbase during the Second World War
