第三节：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
In 1883, an imaginative engineer named John Roebling decided to build a spectacular bridge connecting New York with Long Island. However bridge building experts throughout the world thought that this was a pipe dream. It was not practical. It had never been done before.
But Roebling refused to listen to them. He thought about the bridge day and night and he knew deep in his heart that it could be done. After much discussion and persuasion he convinced his son Washington, who was a promising engineer himself, that the bridge in fact could be built.
Working together for the first time, the father and son developed concepts of how it could be accomplished. With great excitement, they hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge.
The project started well, but several months after it began, a tragic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was so seriously injured that he was never able to walk, talk or even move again.
"We told them so", "Crazy men and their crazy dreams", "It's foolish to chase wild visions", the critics said and most thought the project should be scrapped since the Roeblings were the only ones who knew how the bridge could be built. In spite of his handicap （身体的障碍）,Washington still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and his mind was still as sharp as ever.
Washington's wife tried to inspire and pass on her husband's enthusiasm to some of his friends, but they were too fearful by the task. As he lay in his hospital room, an idea suddenly hit him. All he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the best use of it. By moving this finger and tapping it on his wife's arm, he slowly developed a code to communicate with her. Then he used this method to tell his wife what the engineers should do. It seemed crazy but the project was under way again. For 13 years，Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife's arm until the bridge was finally completed.
Today the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands in all its glory as a tribute to the triumph（大功绩，大胜利）of one man's spirit and his determination not to be defeated by circumstances.
56. What did most people think about Roebling's idea to build the bridge
A. It would never become a reality.
B. Washington was not experienced enough.
C. It would take a lot of time.
D. Finding the money would be impossible.
57. The underlined word `daunted' (para. 6) is closest in meaning to '______'.
A. unpleasant B. scared C. amazed D. determined
58. Which of the following shows the correct order of the events that happened in the story
a. Roebling convinced his son.
b. Washington found a new way to communicate.
c. They hired the crew.
d. The bridge was completed.
e. Roebling wanted to build a bridge.
f. There was a tragic accident.
A. e, a, c, f, d, b B. e, a, f, b, c, d C. e, f, a, b, c, d D. e, a, c, f, b, d
59. What can we learn about Washington's wife
A. She knew sign language very well. B. She was devoted to her husband.
C. She developed a code to communicate with her husband.
D. She helped her husband design the plan.
60. What does the story tell us
A. Success will come with the passing of time.
B. Struggles are exactly what we need in our lives.
C. Even the most distant dream can be realized with a never-say-die attitude.
D. The people who make a difference in our life should be remembered forever.
B

Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past .There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day . Most people read only the sports pages, the advice or the gossip columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements .Most people don’t take the time to read the real news. They attempt to catch the reader’s interest with pictures and exiting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper .The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for a good first page story and headlines that make you stop and look .If the headlines is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps you will not go on to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all. Then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore .They say they get the news on the television now.

Good evening. You are listening to Pop World of BCD International. I’m Susan Welch. Well, first, I would like to say a few words to my dear listeners who are not very familiar with this program.
Since many people want to listen to and understand pop songs, radio producers at BCD International have made hundreds of programs over the years. We have a vast library of “Golden Old songs”, “classics” as well as the “latest pop songs”.
For those of you who like a bit of background with your favorite music there’s The History of Pop or The Road to Music. These two series bring you the language of pop music and information about the periods and the music. If you want to hear from the artists themselves, there’s a new series called About the Big Hits. This is based on interviews with popular singers and songwriters. They talk to us about the meaning and ideas behind their songs.
If you want to understand the words of the big music hits, Pop World is the program for you. After all it’s hard enough for native English speakers to understand most pop songs so. Well if English isn’t your first language, you shouldn’t be surprised if the words of many songs leave you in dark.
