A
Four－Year－Old
Boy
Becomes
Queen
Elizabeth's
Pen
Pal
London,
England:
A
four－year－old
boy
has
become
a
pen
pal
of
Britain's
Queen
Elizabeth.
Tom
Stancombe
started
exchanging
letters
with
the
queen
after
he
set
free
a
balloon,
carrying
his
name
and
address,
at
a
school
party
and
it
landed
on
the
grounds
of
Windsor
Castle.
The
queen
spotted
the
balloon
and
asked
her
personal
assistant,
Angela
Kelly,
to
write
a
letter
on
her
behalf.
She
wrote:
“The
queen
was
delighted
to
find
that
your
balloon
had
traveled
all
the
way
to
the
gardens
at
Windsor
Castle.”
Tom,
who
proudly
put
the
letter
on
his
wall,
wrote
back
to
say
that
his
great,
great
grandfather,
the
artist
Petrus
Johannes
Arundzen,
had
been
commissioned(受委托)
to
copy
Dutch
masters
on
display
at
Windsor
Castle
and
Buckingham
Palace.
Angela
at
once
replied
that
she
would
contact
the
Royal
Collection
to
find
out
what
had
happened
to
the
art
works.
She
kept
her
word
and
two
weeks
later
wrote
to
Tom
to
tell
him
what
had
happened
to
the
etchings,_explaining
they
now
form
part
of
the
print
collection
in
the
Print
Library.
Angela
then
asked
a
favor
of
Tom,
writing:
“Would
you
be
able
to
ask
your
Mummy
and
Daddy
for
me
if
they
know
anything
more
about
your
great,
great
grandfather
Royal
Collection
would
love
to
know
more
about
him.”
Along
with
his
parents,
Tom
wrote
back
to
fill
in
all
the
gaps
about
Petrus
Johannes
Arundzen.
Although
Tom's
parents
don't
think
there
will
be
any
more
letters
exchanged
between
the
pair,
they
were
touched
that
she
had
taken
time
to
contact
them.
Tom's
father
said:
“I
don't
expect
we'll
get
another
one,
but
I
think
it's
incredible
they
bothered
replying
at
all.”

答案与解析：C　细节理解题。由文章的倒数第二自然段可知本题选C。
B
Research
on
friendship
has
established
a
number
of
facts,
some
interesting,
some
even
useful.
Did
you
know
that
the
average
student
has
5—6
friends,
or
that
a
friend
who
was
previously
an
enemy
is
like
more
than
one
who
has
always
been
on
the
right
side
Would
you
believe
that
physically
attractive
individuals
are
preferred
as
friends
to
those
less
comely,
and
is
it
fair
that
physically
attractive
defendants
are
less
likely
to
be
found
guilty
in
court
Unfortunately,
such
tidbits
don't
tell
us
much
more
about
the
nature
or
the
purpose
of
friendship.
In
fact,
studies
of
friendship
seem
to
implicate
more
complex
factors.
For
example，one
function
friendship
seems
to
fulfil
is
that
it
supports
the
image
we
have
of
ourselves,
and
confirms
the
value
of
the
attitudes
we
hold.
Certainly
we
appear
to
project
ourselves
onto
our
friends;
several
studies
have
shown
that
we
judge
them
to
be
more
like
us
than
they(objectively)
are.
This
suggests
that
we
ought
to
choose
friends
who
are
similar
to
us
rather
than
those
who
would
be
complementary.
In
our
experiment,
some
developing
friendships
were
monitored
amongst
first－year
students
living
in
the
same
hostel.
It
was
found
that
similarity
of
attitudes(towards
politics,
religion
and
ethics,
pastimes
and
aesthetics)
was
a
good
predictor
of
what
friendships
would
be
established
by
the
end
of
four
months,
though
it
has
less
to
do
with
initial
alliances—not
surprisingly,
since
attitudes
may
not
be
obvious
on
first
inspection.
There
have
also
been
studies
of
pairings,
both
voluntary(married
couples)
and
forced(student
roommates),
to
see
which
remained
together
and
which
split
up.
Again,
the
evidence
seems
to
favour
similarity
rather
than
complementary
as
an
omen(预兆)
of
a
successful
relationship,
though
there
is
a
complication:
where
marriage
is
concerned,
once
the
field
has
been
narrowed
down
to
potential
mates
who
come
from
similar
backgrounds
and
share
a
broad
range
of
attitudes
and
values,
a
degree
of
complementary
seems
to
become
desirable.
When
a
couple
are
not
just
similar
but
almost
identical,
something
else
seems
to
be
needed.
Similarity
can
breed
contempt,
it
has
also
been
found
that
when
we
find
others
obnoxious(不愉快的),
we
dislike
them
more
if
they
are
like
us
than
when
they
are
dissimilar!
The
difficulty
of
linking
friendship
with
similarity
of
personality
probably
reflects
the
complexity
of
our
personalities:
we
have
many
facets
and
therefore
require
a
disparate(全异的)
group
of
friends
to
support
us.
This
of
course
can
explain
why
we
may
have
two
close
friends
who
have
little
in
common,
and
indeed
dislike
each
other.
By
and
large,
though,
it
looks
as
though
we
would
do
well
to
choose
friends(and
spouses)
who
resemble
us.
If
this
were
not
so,
computer
dating
agencies
would
have
gone
out
of
business
years
ago.
5．Research
on
friendship
has
demonstrated
that
________.
A.
every
student
has
five
or
six
friends
B.
judges
are
always
influenced
by
a
pretty
face
C.
ugly
people
find
it
harder
to
make
friends
than
beautiful
people
D.
we
tend
to
grow
fond
of
people
if
we
dislike
them
at
first
sight
答案与解析：C　细节判断题。外貌难看的人发现自己很难像外貌漂亮的人那样与他人交友。第一段第三句“physically
attractive
individuals
are
preferred
as
friends
to
those
less
comely”，外貌好的人比之不好的人易受人青睐，所以选C。
6．Studies
of
friendship
have
indicated
that
in
seeking
friends
we
________.
A.
are
looking
for
sympathy
B.
insist
on
them
having
similar
attitudes
as
ours
C.
think
they
resemble
us
more
than
they
really
do
D.
want
to
be
flattered
答案与解析：C　细节理解题。我们往往会过分地认为他们和我们相像。第二段指出，人们似乎喜欢把自己设想成处于其朋友们的境况，因而过分地认为他们和自己相像，所以选C。
7．The
experiment
conducted
on
students
living
in
a
hostel
suggested
that
________.
A.
in
the
long
run,
people
get
on
better
with
those
who
are
like
them
B.
it
was
impossible
to
predict
which
friendships
would
develop

students
immediately
recognized
others
with
similar
attitudes
and
interests
D.
students
split
up
as
soon
as
they
discovered
differences
in
attitude
答案与解析：A　细节理解题。从长远的观点看，人们与自己习性相像的人相处较好。第二段最后一句指出，观察表明，四个月之后，学生间的友谊关系才能确立，而且具有相同的经历、兴趣和观点的人之间更能建立友谊，所以选A。
8．Which
of
the
following
best
illustrates
the
major
view
of
the
passage
A.
Birds
of
a
feather
flock
together.
B.

attract
each
other.
C.
Great
minds
think
alike.
D.
A
friend
in
need
is
a
friend
indeed.
答案与解析：A　主旨大意题。物以类聚，人以群分。根据全文的阐述，其中心思想是：具有较为相同的经历、兴趣和观点的人之间往往容易建立友谊，所以选A。
Ⅲ.七选五阅读
NOISE
The
people
who
lived
in
Rome
2,000
years
ago
were
already
talking
about
the
noise
in
their
city.
They
couldn't
sleep,
they
said,
with
all
the
people
and
carriages
in
the
streets.
For
them
noise
was
only
a
trouble,
but
for
us
it
has
become
a
real
danger.
We
know
that
sounds
of
an
ordinary
city
are
loud
enough
to
cause
serious
harm
to
the
people's
hearing—in
the
United
States,
one
person
out
of
twenty
has
suffered
some
hearing
loss.
__1__
It
has
increased
greatly
in
the
20th
century
with
the
development
of
machines.
We
live
surrounded
by
loud
planes,
trucks,
buses,
radios,
machines—that
make
such
loud
noises
day
and
night
up
to
90
or
100
decibels(分贝).
A
usual
talk
reaches
55
decibels.
A
jet
plane
goes
to
100
decibels
and
more.
“Pop”
music
reaches
around
118
decibels.
At
120
decibels
the
ear
stops
hearing
sound,
and
the
ear
suffers
a
lot.
However,
the
human
ear
does
not
judge
clearly
the
degree
of
loudness
of
a
noise.
A
sound
ten
decibels
louder
than
another
one
is
felt
as
twice
as
loud,
when,
in
fact,
it
is
ten
times
louder.
__2__
But
it
is
not
only
our
hearing
that
is
harmed.
It
has
been
known
that
loud
noises,
over
a
period
of
time,
cause
loss
of
sleep,
anger,
and
many
other
problems.
__3__
Can
anything
be
done
to
make
our
world
more
quiet
We
know
how
to
build
quieter
machines,
if
the
public
wants
them.
But
shop
assistants
say
that
people
who
buy
motorbikes
like
the
loudest
ones
because
they
sound
more
loudly.
__4__
In
America
the
drivers
in
some
cities
are
fined(罚款)
fifty
dollars
for
honking
(打喇叭);
they
may
lose
their
right
to
drive
if
they
do
it
again.
People
who
carry
noisy
radios
in
public
places
may
lose
them
if
they
are
caught
with
them.
__5__
Even
so,
say
the
scientists,
in
twenty
years
the
cities
will
be
twice
as
loud
as
they
are
today
because
of
the
increase
of
the
population.
People
will
have
to
shout
to
be
heard
at
the
dinner
table.
Unless,
of
course,
they
have
all
become
completely
deaf!
A.
Some
countries
are
trying
to
make
laws.
B.
People
will
become
completely
deaf
in
the
future.
C.
When
a
sound
is
getting
louder
and
louder,
our
ears
are
in
danger.
D.
In
fact,
it
will
take
everybody's
hard
work
to
keep
city
noises
from
increasing.
E.
Since
we
cannot
measure
the
increase
or
decrease
of
noise,
we
never
know
in
what
danger
we
are.
F.
And
all
over
the
world
the
situation
is
getting
worse
all
the
time
since
noise
increases
with
the
population.
G.
Such
problems
have
been
found
among
factory
workers,
and
people
who
operate
loud
machines,
or
often
go
to
pop
music
concerts.
