第三部分 阅读（共两节，满分40分）
第一节 阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列三篇短文，从每题所给的四个选现（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Microwaves may be great at warming up food, but what about warming people
Using microwaves to directly heat owners of a room would save much of the energy wasted by heating walls and furniture. And despite popular ideas about microwaves, this technique would be safe, according to Charles R. Burlier of the Microwave Research Center in Marlborough, New Hampshire. Low-power microwaves only penetrate (贯穿) the skin (low-power microwave penetration in a ham is about 0.2 inches, for example) and with no negative effects.
To test this idea, Buffler subjected himself to microwaves in a special room using a standard 500-watt, 2459 MHz magnetron (磁控管). He found that a person will start to feel warmth at about 20 milliwatts per square centimeter (mw. / sq. cm. ) ; a satisfactory feeling of warmth occurs between 35 and 50mw. / sq. cm. By comparison, a person standing in noonday summer sun feels the amount of 85 mw. / sq. cm. And a frozen meat pie in your microwave oven receives about 1000 mw. / sq. cm.
In houses of the future, each room could be provided with its own magnetron, says Buffler. When you stepped into the living room, for example, a motion detector (运动感应器)would turn on the magnetron, filling the room with low-power microwaves. In the same way that a microwave oven heats up a hamburger, but not the plate it’s on, you would feel warmth from the microwaves without changing the temperature of your coffee table. (You could, however, make your favorite easy chair even more comfortable by treating it with a radiation-absorbing chemical.)
While it might be some time before homeowners are comfortable enough with the idea to set up whole-body microwave heaters in houses, Buffler says microwaves may attract livestock(家畜) farmers. Lambs that are born outdoors in winter, for example, are frequently lost to cold. Microwaves could warm the lambs safely and quickly.
41. Which of the following can tell the main idea of the passage
A. A new heating system. B. A new microwave oven.
C. A popular technique. D. The magnetron.
42. According to Paragraph 2, which of the following does not describe the characteristics of a microwave heater
A. It directly heats people in a room.
B. It heats walls and furniture in a room.
C. It is safe.
D. It saves energy．
43. The test conducted by Buffler shows that when a person feels comfortable warmth, he receives about ________________.
A. 20 mw. / sq. cm.
B. 40 mw. / sq. cm.
C. 60 mw. / sq. cm.
D. 85 mw. / sq. cm.
44. According to Paragraph 4, which of the following fills the room with low-power microwaves
A. The magnetron.
B. The motion detector.
C. The microwave oven.
D. The radiation-absorbing chemical.
45. Which of the following statements about microwave heaters would Buffler most probably agree with
A. Microwave heaters will soon be widely used by homeowners.
B. Microwave heaters sometimes make people feel uncomfortable.
C. Perhaps microwave heaters will be first used by livestock farmers, who wish to protect their lambs in winter.
D. Microwave heaters cannot be accepted by the public because they are somewhat unsafe.
B
In Europe, people hold the fork in the left hand and the knife in the right throughout the meal, a system that is generally agreed to be more efficient than the American zigzag（曲折的）method. Americans hold both the fork and the knife in their right hands throughout the meal, so they continually change their forks to the left hand when they have to cut their meat. It seems to be funny for the Europeans to see Americans busy changing their dinner sets, making a lot of noises.
A few explanations for this American style are as follows:?
(1) Americans are practical and efficient. Since most of us are right-handed, it is reasonable to keep our working tools at all times in the right hand that can use them most efficiently.?
(2) Americans, the master of the New World are rebels（叛逆者）.They use the zigzag method to break the rules in the Old World and in this way they are thumbing their nose at Mother England. Americans are a restless kind. They do not like to sit in one spot for very long when dining.
(3) Forced to do so, they respond by “playing” with the silver.?
Whatever the reason for the practice, it is now certainly as American as apple pie. Europeans recognize this and are quick to attack it as evidence of American innocence（无知）of form. Arguments against the zigzag method rest not only on grounds of efficiency but also on those of tradition. In Old World dining, the knife is held in the right hand continually because it can serve as an instant defense against the uninvited intruders（入侵者）.However, such alertness（警觉） is out of place in the New World, as every American believes that this is the home of the brave. Americans juggle their silverware, perhaps, to show that they are not afraid and that one of them holding a fork is worth any number of them holding blades（刀）.
46 Americans use _______ to hold their fork to pick up the salad.
A. the right hand
B. the left hand
C. both hands
D. either of the two hands
47. As the masters of the New World, Americans use a different cutting method from that in the Old World to _________________.
A. show their independence of Mother England
B. show their disrespect to Mother England
C. add a new tradition to those in Mother England
D. show off their creativeness to Mother England
48.In the sentence, the word “juggle” probably means ____________.
A. hold
B. play with
C. pick up
D. lay down
49.Also in the last sentence, the two “them” refer to ____________.
A. Americans
B. Europeans
C. Americans and Europeans separately
D. Europeans and Americans separately
50. Which of the following statements is NOT true
A. European people hold the fork in the left hand and the knife in the right hand.
B. The zigzag eating method is related to American characteristics.
C. The zigzag eating method has become an American feature.
D. European people will use the American method because of its efficiency.
C
The name “cowboy” conjures up many different images from movies, songs and TV. These imagined cowboys range from white-hat-wearing heroes to gun-shooting hooligans(流氓).But, cowboys are actually real people from US history.?
When the US Civil War ended, many soldiers had no place to call home. So, they began to drift to the country’s rural West. Ranchers(农场主) hired these men to take care of the cattle and work around the ranch. When the ranch owner wanted to sell the cattle, the cowboys would round up the herd from the open prairie(牧场) and drive the cattle miles to the market.?
With the invention of barbed wire(铁丝网),the cowboy era(1865-1890) began to come to an end. But people in the East had always been curious about their lifestyle. Many country/western songs during this time tried to capture the true cowboy spirit. Newspapers published cowboy tales in serial form and adventure novels followed. The bigger the fiction, the better the sales. These novels often portrayed cowboys as cruel and violent men. Cowboys carried the bad reputation for many years afterwards.
When movies began to be popular in the 1920s, the cowboy image changed again. Now, a cowboy became the great white knight(骑士) that loved his horse more than the beautiful ladies he rescued. As the cowboy of the “Old West” spent more time with his horse than the ladies, this era's image was not entirely false.
Then, in the 50s,Hollywood began producing so-called “spaghetti westerns(意大利西部片)”.They earned the nickname because Italian companies financed the films and TV shows. This started the decade’s “Cowboy Craze”. While this didn’t last long, it made modern country / western music, fashion and dance extremely popular.?
In recent years, with the help of musicians, radio stations and bars, cowboy nostalgia(怀旧情绪) has returned. Even though his image is still changing — somewhere between ballad singing country boy and bar room fighter — there’s one thing for sure, you can’t keep the cowboy down..
51. The purpose of this story is to _____________.
A. introduce cowboy movies and novels
B. introduce various productions associated with cowboys
C. show the cowboy's everlasting charm　
D. inform us about the cowboy’s spirit
52. Before they became cowboys, they ______________.
A. served in the army
B. worked as bar-room fighters
C. owned ranches
D. were adventurous explorers
53. During “the cowboy era” mentioned in the story, ______________.
A. the cowboy often came to the rescue of ladies in newspaper tales
B. the distant Wild West appealed to people in the East
C. cowboys were shown as cruel and violent men on the silver screen
D. country music started the cowboy craze which swept the whole country
54. By saying “you can’t keep the cowboy down”, the writer means that ______________.
A. cowboys are real people in history
B. cowboys still fascinate people
C. you can't make cowboys unhappy
D. you can’t grasp the cowboy spirit
55. Which of the following statements would the writer agree to
A. The cowboy has been presented in different lights in different eras.
B. Cowboys are gun-shooting hooligans, without doubt.
C. Cowboys have always been a passing phenomenon.
D. Cowboys enjoy Italian foods, for example, spaghetti.
第二节：信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。
以下是旅游景点的信息：
A. Agra Fort
Near the gardens of the Taj Mahal stands the important 16th-century Mughal monument known as the Red Fort of Agra. This powerful fortress of red sandstone encompasses, within its 2.5-km-long enclosure walls, the imperial city of the Mughal rulers. It comprises many fairy-tale palaces, such as the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal, built by Shah Jahan; audience halls, such as the Diwan-i-Khas; and two very beautiful mosques.
B. Taj Mahal
Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eight wonders of the world, and some Western historians have noted that its architectural beauty has never been surpassed. The Taj is the most beautiful monument built by the Mughals, the Muslim rulers of India. Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble. It was constructed over a period of twenty-two years, employing twenty thousand workers. It was completed in 1648 C.E. at a cost of 32 Million Rupees.
C. Keoladeo National Park
This former duck-hunting reserve of the Maharajas is one of the major wintering areas for large numbers of aquatic birds from Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, China and Siberia. Some 364 species of birds, including the rare Siberian crane, have been recorded in the park.
D. Humayun's Tomb, Delhi
This tomb, built in 1570, is of particular cultural significance as it was the first garden-tomb on the Indian subcontinent. It inspired several major architectural innovations, culminating in the construction of the Taj Mahal. The gardens also contain the red-and-white sandstone and black-and-yellow marble tomb of Humayun’s wife and the tomb of Humayun’s barber.
E. Grand Canyon National Park
The Grand Canyon is perhaps the most awesome sight in the United States--and one of the wonders of the world. Much of the park's beauty is related to its geology and ecology. Schmidt explores the shape of the land, its plants and animals, and its human history. A fascinating book that everyone visiting the Grand Canyon should read. The Skywalk at Grand Canyon West is really exciting.
F.Sundarbans National Park
The Sundarbans covers 10,000 sq. km of land and water (more than half of it in India, the rest in Bangladesh) in the Ganges delta. It contains the world's largest area of mangrove forests. A number of rare or endangered species live in the park, including tigers, aquatic mammals, birds and reptiles.

56. Carina is fond of art and likes travelling very much. In order to take part in the following exhibition, she wants to take some photos of birds from all over the world, especially the rare Siberian crane. In the meanwhile, she doesn’t want to spend too much money.
57. Daisy’s major is biology. She is interested in studies of tigers in India. Before graduation, she needs to write an essay on the tiger. She hears that it is one of the largest tiger populations of any of India’s parks. And so she wants to go there to do some research.
58. Alexander is a college student of Physics. He learns that this canyon is a gift from past generations that goes beyond what we experience. He is looking forward to going there and experiencing the Skywalk in the park.
59. Sammy majors in history. He will visit it again this summer. He says it’s built entirely of white Marble and is one of the eight wonders of the world. Its beauty is beyond description, particularly at dawn and sunset. It seems to glow in the light of the full moon.

60. Nancy comes from the history department. Last summer she visited the ancient markets of Agra and this year she wants to visit it again. Not long ago she said: “Arriving at the Delhi airport, we representatives were warmly received.

In some public toilets in Australia, signs have been put up in Chinese to remind Chinese visitors to wash out the toilet after use. In many scenic spots in foreign countries, similar posters ask Chinese people to speak in softer tones.
In China, there are many rude bus passengers who never wait in line for a bus and push hard onto it the moment the bus stops. There are also witnesses to accidents who fail to lend a hand to others. In Beijing, the residents’ being impolite, sometimes rude manners are often noted by visitors from all over the world.
When talking about these phenomena, it is a shame for all of us Chinese people.
“The success of the 2008 Olympic Games depends very much on showing good manners as on the quality of facilities and players’ performances.” China’s delegate to the International Olympic Committee said. “The fact that some people pay little attention to their manners stands in our way of holding the 2008 Olympic Games successfully.”

41. A。细节理解题。文章第二自然段说明微波炉可以使人暖和，不必浪费能量给墙壁和家具加热。
42. B。细节理解题。文章第二自然段说明微波直接进入人的皮肤使人温暖，既安全又省能源。

B【答案与解析】 46—50 ABBCD
美国人和英国人都使用刀叉，他们各自使用方式不同。美国人是把刀叉都放在右手使用的,因此他们不得不不断地把叉换到左手使用；右手只拿刀的是英国人，这些又能说明什么问题呢？
46.A。推理判断题。根据第一自然段“Americans hold both the fork and the knife in their right hands throughout the meal”可知。?
47.B。细节理解题。根据文章中的三个解释中的第二条“They use the zigzag method to break the rules in the Old World and in this way they are thumbing their nose at Mother England.”可知。thumb one's nose at是“嘲笑、轻视某人”的意思。48.B。意义猜测题。根据上文可知,美国人是把刀叉都放在右手使用的,因此他们不得不不断地把叉换到左手使用,这样像耍把戏一样,由此可推断出正确的词义。49.C。推理判断题。根据上文可知,用右手拿叉的是美国人,而右手只拿刀的是英国人,因而这两个them前一个是美国人,而后一个是英国人。这句话的意思是:他们像耍把戏一样玩着银质的刀叉是为了表示他们勇敢,而且他们一个持叉的人就可以敌得过任何一个拿刀的人。?
50.D。推理判断题。根据最后一段“Europeans recognize this and are quick to attack it as evidence of American innocence（无知）of form.”可知英国人是极力反对美国人的这个做法的,并把它作为一个证据来证明美国人的无知,所以它们是不会使用美国的这个做法的。

As can be seen from the chart, nearly 60% of the people think the “golden week” shouldn’t be cancelled. They believe the “golden week” will raise consumption, and therefore, help to promote the domestic demand. In addition, it benefits tourism, transportation and service industries and enables them to prosper during holidays. More than one third people, however, suggest cancelling it because they think the travel craze puts a heavy burden on the traffic system, causing some over crowdedness and safety problems.
Personally, I think the “golden week” should remain, for it greatly benefits our overall economy. Meanwhile, I suggest the government take effective measures to solve the above problems.

第二节 读写任务参考范文(满分25分)
A few days ago, I came across a passage in an English newspaper. The passage describes some bad manners of Chinese people and special signs put up in foreign countries to remind Chinese visitors. It also says that our good manners are important to the success of the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
As is well known, good manners are the basic quality of man, particularly when we are living in a civilized society. Bad manners always have a bad effect on one’s work and success.
It is well known that China is an ancient country of civilization and courtesy. However, it is a shame that bad manners can often be seen in our daily life. In our school, some students jump the queue while waiting to get their meals in the dining room. Some spit and litter wherever they are. Some make the walls and desks dirty and ugly by drawing or writing meaningless things on them.
I think it is high time we got rid of these bad habits. Let’s make every effort to do what we can to help hold the 2008 Olympics and the 2010 Asian Games successfully. Remember: small things make a difference.
