第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（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和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet“fair weather friends”. They will be with you if you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).
Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener. At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (过错) in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on (信赖) a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor (幽默), too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!
21.Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing ________a friend?
A. understanding. B. honesty. C. reliability. D. a sense of humor.
22.If you have fair weather friends, ______ .

C. you will become rich
D. you can be sure that you get real friends

1990 was an important year in world events. In February, Nelson Mandela was set free after 27 years in prison. In October, East and West Germany became one country again. Then at the end of 1990, the World Wide Web was born. For this final event we have one man to thank. Tim Berners-Lee, the father of the Web.
Berners-Lee was born on June 8, 1955 in London, England. His parents, both computer designers, encouraged him to think and work creatively as he grew up. He was an excellent student and naturally took an interest in computers and science.
After graduating from Oxford University, Tim went to work at a science research centre in Switzerland. There he developed some of the different systems（系统）that would later become the Web. The first was HTML, the computer language used to make web pages. The second was an address system that let computers anywhere find each other and send and receive information. In 1990 he put them together to make the first Internet browser（浏览器）.
Tim knew that the more people used the Web, the more useful it would be. He wasn’t interested in money but knowledge, so he gave out his invention for free to anyone who was interested. Many were interested an the growth of the Internet began.
Today Tim works as a professor at the MIT in America, studying new ways to use the Web. He has received many awards from governments and organizations for his efforts. He is still not very interested in money. That is why he is so liked by his students and workmates. It may also be one of the reasons that few people outside the world of technology know his name.
28.The following events all took place in 1990 except that ______.
A. Nelson Mandela got free
B. the World Wide Web was born
C. Eat and West Germany reunited
D. Berners-Lee started school
29.We can learn from the text that Berners-Lee ______.
A. was encouraged to be creative
B. didn’t do well at school
C. cares little about money and knowledge
D. is well-known all over the world
30.Where does Berners-Lee live today?
A. England. B. Switzerland. C. America. D. Germany.
31.What does the text mainly talk about?
A. The events that took place in 1990.
B. The history of the Internet.
C. The invention of the Internet.
D. The father of the World Wide Web
D
It is interesting to see that the force of only 6 or 7 people pushing in the same direction can cause up to 1,000 pounds of force-enough to break brick walls. During a deadly stampede(逃奔), people can even die standing up. People die when pressure is put to their bodies in a front to back direction, causing them not to be able to breathe.
If you are in a crowd, the first and most important thing is to make yourself familiar with your surroundings and find different exits. No matter where you are, make sure you always know how to get out.
Make yourself aware of the type of the ground you are standing on, and know that in a crowd of moving people wet ground can cause you to fall.
When in danger, a few seconds can make a difference, giving you the possibility of making use of your escaping route. Always stay closer to the escape route. If you find yourself in the middle of a moving crowd, do not fight against the pressure, do not stand still or sit down, because you can easily get trampled（踩踏）. Instead, move in the same direction of the crowd; make use of any space that may open up to move sideways to the crowd movement where the flow is weaker.
Keep your hands up by your chest, like a boxer-it gives you movement and protects your chest. If you fall, get up quickly. If you can’t get up because you are injured, get someone to pull you up. If you have kids, lift them up.
If you fall and cannot get up, keep moving in the same direction of the crowd, or if that is not possible, then cover your head with your arms; do not lie on your stomach or back.
32.In a stampede people may die standing up mainly because_______.
A. they can’t breathe freely B. they push in the same direction
C. they are not able to get up D. they aren’t familiar with the surroundings
33.What does the word deadly underlined in the first paragraph probably mean?
A. harmful. B. shocking. C. deathly D. hateful.
34.When in danger, to make a difference, you should______.
A. fight against the pressure B. stand still where you are
C. sit down covering your head D. move along the escape route.
35.In the passage the write mainly wants to tell us _______.
A. how to stay far away from a crowd B. what to do when you are in a crowd
C. where to go when you are in danger D. how to get along with a big crowd

Plants are very important living things. Life could not go if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. 36.. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. So animals and man need plants in order to live. 37..
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants.
38.. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. 39.. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.

.Dear Tom,
How are you? I’m sorry for not replying to your letter in time. I was preparing for the final exam which was very important to me.
During this winter vacation, I plan to do many things, one of which is making a trip to some places of interest together with my good friends. And I want to do some meaningful volunteer work. Also, I’d like to do a part-time job, which helps me know more about society and helps me earn some money for my schooling. That can be called killing the birds with one stone.
What are you going to do in this winter vacation? Hope you could come to China in your spare time and have a wonderful time with us.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
