第二部分：阅读理解（共20小题：每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Societies all over the world name places in simllar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of ereference by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Frequently it happens that a place has two names:One is named by the people and the other by the govemment. As in many areas, old habits die hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.
Many roads and places in Singapore (新加坡)are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countries-in both the West and the East.
Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendship between the two places or it could bo that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases. If you step into Selector Alrbase you will see Piccadilly Circus-obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel.
Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example.“Bras Basah”means“wet rice”in Malay (马来语).Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.
A fow roads in Singapore are named by their shanes. Chere is “Cireular Road”for one Other roads may have part of their names to de their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Creseent”This road is called a crescent(月牙)because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.
36.We learn from Paragraph I that ____________.
A. the government is usually the first to name a place
B. many places tend to have more than one name
C. a ceremony will be held when a place is namadd
D. people prefer the place names glvonty the government

C. Disappear mysteriously.
D. Disappear very slowly.
38. Which of the following places is named after a person?
A. Raffles Place.
B. Selector Airbase.
C. Piccadilly Circus.
D. Paya Lebar Crescent.
39. Bras Basah Road is named_______________.
A. after a person
B. after a place
C. after an activity
D. by is shape
40. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Some place names in Singapore are the same as in Britain.
B. Some places in Singapore are named for military purposes.
C. The way Singaporeans name their places is unique.
D. Young Singaporeans have forgotten the pioneers.

I am a writer. I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language----the way it can evoke (唤起) an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth, Language is the tool of my trade. And I use them all---all the Englishes I grew up with.
Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California, I’ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as “broken”English. But I feel embarrassed to say that It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than “hceken”an if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness. I’ve heard other terms used, “limited English,” for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people’s perceptions (认识) of the limited English speaker.
I know this for a fac, because when I was growing up, my mother’s “limited”English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say. That is because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fact that. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I won’t get into today. I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken”; and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal (内在的) language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese structure. I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show: her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.
41.By saying “Language is the tool of my trade”, the author means that___________.
A. she uses English in foreign trade
B. she is fascinated by languages
C. she works as a translator
D. she is a writer by profession
42.The author used to think of her mother’s English as__________.
A. impolite
B. amusing
C. imperfect
D. practical
43. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?
A. Americans do not understand broken English.
B. The author’s mother was not respected sometimes.
C. The author’s mother had positive influence on her.
D. Broken English always reflects imperfect thoughts.
44.The author gradually realizes her mother’s English is _______.
A. well structured
B. in the old style
C. easy to translate
D. rich in meaning
45.It is the passage mainly about?
A.The change of the author’s attitude to her mother’s Bnglish.
B.The limitation of the auther’s perception of her mother.
C.The author’s misunderstanding of “limited” English.
D.The author’s experienices of using booken English.

Tens of thousands of theatre tickets will be given away to young people next year.as part of a govermment csmpaign to inspire a lifelong love for theatre.
The plant to ofter free seats to people aged between 18 to 26-funded with ￡2.5 million of taxpayers’ money-was announced yesterday by Andy Burnham,the Culture Sedretary it received a cautious welcome from some in the artsy world,who expressed concern that the tickets may not reach the most uniderpriviteged.
The plan comes as West Eng theatres are enjoying record audiences,thanks largely to musicals teaming up with television talent shows.Attendances reached 13.6 million in 2007,up 10 percent on 2006,itself a record year.Total sales were up 18 percent on 2006to almost ￡470 million.
One theatre source criticlsed the Govermment priorities (优先考虑的事) in funding free tickets when pensioners were struggling to buy food and fuel,saying:“I don’t know why the Government’s wasting money on this.The Young Vic,as The Times reported today.offers excellent performances at cheap prices.”
There was praise for the Government’s plan from Dominic Cooke of the Royal Court Theatre,who said:“I support any move to get young people into theatre,and especially one that aims to do it all over England,not just in London. ”
Ninety-five publicly funded theatres could apple for fumding under the two-year plan.In return,they will offer free tickets on at least one day each week to 18 to 26-year-olds,first-come,first-servied,It is likely to be on Mondays,traditionally a quiet night for the theatre.
Mr.Burnham said:“A young person attending the theatre can find it an exciting experence,and be inspired to explore a new world.But sometimes people miss out on it because they fear it’s ‘not for them’.It’s time to change this perception.”
Jeremy Hunt,the Shadow Culture Secretary,“The real lssue is not getting enthusiastic children into the theatre,but imarsving ars cducation so that more young people want to go in the first place.For too many children theatres are a no-go area.”

Next time a customer comes to your office,him a cup of coffec.And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online,make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea.The physical sensation(感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth,while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions-those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A.Bargh.
Psychologlsts have known that one person’s psensation(感知) of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationshing Ntiging someone to be either”“warm” or cold is a primary consideration,even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable.
Much of this ais rooted in very early childhood expericnces,Bargn argues,when babies.
Concepatal sens. of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a bloth“mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from carris to help young. Children grow into healthy aduts with nomal social skills.
Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm”or “cold”is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perccptions imfluence judgment in dozens of countries.
To test the relationship between pyysical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an expcriment which involved 41 collegs students. A rescarch assistant who wias unaware of the study’s hypotheses（假设）, handed the students efther a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then banded back. After that, the students were asked to rate the peironaily of “Person A” based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.
“We are grounded in our physical expericncen when we think abstractly” says Bargh.
51.According to Paragraph 1, a person’s emotion may be affected by .
A.the visitors to hls office.
B.the psychology lessons he has
C.his physical feeling of coldness
D.the things he has bought online
52.The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that .
A.adults should develop social skins.
B.babies need warm physical comtact
C.caregivers should be healthy adults
D.monkeys have social relatlonships
53.In Bargh’s experiment, the students were asked to .
A.evaluate someone’s personality
B.write down their hypotheses
C.fill out a personal information
D.hold coffee and cold drink alternatively
54.infer from the passage that .
A.abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences
B.feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide
C.physical temperature affects show we see othere.
D.capable persons are often cold to there
55.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Drinking for Better Social Relationships.
B.Expcriments of Personality Evaluation.

阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart(购物手推车).They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know-or even think to ask-who it was the livented them.
Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermaket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging(吃力地携带)groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terrlbly exciteds on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention.
But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.
After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied.
But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his could be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try ,Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony(假冒的)customers.
Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger number of customers to his market. But not only did more people come-those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handly baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greatcr number of items than before.
Today’s shopping carts are five times get than Goldman’s original model. Perthaps that’s one reason Americame today spend more than five times as much money of food each year as they did before 1937-before the coming of the shopping cart.
