IV. 阅读理解 （（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）A
A
We have two daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four. Last Sunday evening, we invited some people home for dinner. I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join Mommy in answering the door when the bell rang. Mommy would introduce them to the guests, and then they would take the guests' coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom.
The guests arrived. I introduced my two daughters to each of them. The adults were nice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids.
Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smile. They said she was a remarkable(引人注目的) girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age.
I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big “to do” over the younger one because she's the one who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of intentions.
But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that Kristen would feel she was being ignored. I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes. I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying.
I said, "What are you doing, my dear "
She turned to me with a sad expression and said, "Mommy, why don't people like me the way they like my sister Is it because I 'm not pretty Is that why they don't say nice things about me as much "
I tried to explain to her, kissing and hugging her to make her feel better.
Now, whenever I visit a friend's home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first.
56. What did the parents ask the sisters to do to welcome the guests
A. To introduce themselves to the guests
B. To put away the guests’ coats in another upstairs room.
C. To take off the guests’ coats politely.
D. To entertain the guests with candies.
57. The underlined expression ‘make a big “to do” over’ (paragraph 4) means ______.
A. show much concern about B. have a special effect on
C. list jobs to be done for D. do good things for
58. The guests praised Kelly for carrying coats upstairs because of her ______.
A. beautiful hair B. pretty clothes
C. lovely smile D. young age
59. Kristen felt sad and cried because ______.
A. the guest gave her more coats to carry
B. she didn't look as pretty as Kelly
C. the guests praised her sister more than her
D. her mother didn't introduce her to the guests
60. We can conclude from the passage that ______.
A. parents should pay more attention to the elder children
B. the younger children are usually more easily hurt
C. people usually like the younger children more
D. adults should treat children equally
B
If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame (受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.
61. The main reason why one is poor memory is that _______.
A. his father or mother may have a poor memory
B. He does not use his arms or legs for some time
C. his memory is not often used
D. he can’t read or write
62. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time _______.
A. you can’t use them any more
B. they become weak and won’t become strong until you use them again.
C. they will become stronger
D. they will become neither stronger nor weaker
63. Which of the following is NOT true
A. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.
B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don’t give it enough chance for practice.
C. A good memory comes from more practice.
D. Don’t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.
64. Some people can’t read or write, but they usually have better memories, because _______.
A. they have saved much trouble
B. they have saved much time to remember things
C. they have to use their memories all the time
D. they can’t write everything in a little notebook
65. Which is the best title for this passage
A. Don’t Stop Using Your Arms Or Legs B. How to Have a Good Memory
C. Strong Arms and Good Memories D. Learn From the People
C
As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.
Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping (录像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores.” Lewis says. “And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is.”
The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings (兄弟姐妹), Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”
66. The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to________.
show the relationship between parents and children
teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table
report on the findings of a study
give information about family problems
67. Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because _______.
they are busy serving food to their children
they are busy keeping order at the dinner table
they have to pay more attention to younger children
they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family
68. By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3. Lewis means that middle children ________.
have to help their parents to serve dinner
get the least attention from the family
are often kept away from the dinner table
find it hard to keep up with other children
69. Lewis’ research provides an answer to the question ________.
why TV is important in family life
why parents should keep good order
why children in small families seem to be quieter
why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life
70. Which of the following statements would the writer agree to
It is important to have the right food for children.
It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.
Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.
Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner.

VI. 阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
Many students want to find friends on the Internet as a way of practising their language skills and learning more about new cultures. Traditional pen pals (朋友) were the primary source(来源) for such contacts, and students could write each other letters. With the Internet, finding friends has become much easier, and such relationships are called key pals.
However, care and consideration should be given when finding friends on the Internet:
●Search the Internet for reputable(有信誉的) services. Look for reviews of such sites to learn more about other students’ experiences. Don’t join a service until you have done your research.
●Check to see if you can use a nickname, instead of __________, to protect your identity(身份).
●Never give personal information to anyone, including your home address, phone number, and birthday
●Stop contact with others if you feel uncomfortable with the topics of conversation. Again, if you protect your identity, this will be easier to do. Tell your teachers, parents, or even local law enforcement(执法组) if problems arise.
●Try to use the language you are studying in the classroom in your communication with others.
●Ask appropriate(适当的) questions that will also help you learn about other cultures. Remember that someone’s personal experience might help you to understand a whole culture. You have to talk to many different people, and this will get you started.
