第三部分：閱讀理解（第一節(jié)15小題，第二節(jié)5小題；每小題2分，共40分）
第一節(jié)：閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C、D）中，選出最佳選項
Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don't always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don't get along well, which doesn't mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, then we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.
There's more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people if those don't have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares, if someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.

A. none needs friends                      B. we always need friends around us

While watching the Olympics the other night, I came across an unbelievable sight. It was not a gold medal, or a world record broken, but a show of courage.
The event was swimming and started with only three men on the blocks. For one reason or another, two of them false started, so they were disqualified. That left only one to compete. It would have been difficult enough, not having anyone to race against, even though the time on the clock is important.
I watched the man dive off the block and knew right away that something was wrong. I’m not an expert swimmer, but I can tell a good dive from a poor one, and this was not exactly medal quality. When he resurfaced, it was evident that the man was not out for gold – his arms were waving in an attempt at freestyle. The crowd started to laugh. Clearly this man was not a medal competitor.
I listened to the crowd begin to laugh at this poor man who was clearly having a hard time. Finally he made his turn to start back. It was pitiful. He made a few desperate strokes and you could tell he was worn out.
But in those few awful strokes, the crowd had changed.
No longer were they laughing, but beginning to cheer. Some even began to stand and shout “Come on, you can do it!” and he did.
A clear minute past the average swimmer, this young man finally finished his race. The crowd went wild. You would have thought that he had won the gold, and he should have. Even though he recorded one of the slowest times in Olympic history, this man gave more heart than any of the other competitors.
Just a short year ago, he had never even swum, let alone race. His country had been invited to Sydney.
In a competition where athletes remove their silver medals feeling they have somehow been cheated out of gold, or when they act so proudly in front of their competitors , it is nice to watch an underdog.
【小題1】From the passage we can learn that the young man        .

A．made his turn to start back pitifully
B．was skillful in freestyle in the game
C．swam faster than the average swimmer
D．was not capable enough to win the medal
【小題2】The crowd changed their attitudes because         .
A．they felt sorry for the young man
B．they were moved by the young man’s courage
C．they wanted to show their sympathy
D．they meant to please the young man
【小題3】According to the passage, “it is nice to watch an underdog” probably means         .
A．it’s amazing to watch an ordinary man challenging himself
B．it’s amusing to watch a man with awful swimming skills
C．it’s cheerful for athletes to act proudly before their competitors
D．it’s brave enough for some athletes to remove the silver medals
【小題4】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．The event started with three men, two of whom were disqualified later.
B．The crowd started to laugh at the athlete’s arms waving in an attempt at freestyle.
C．The athlete, as well as the author, is an expert swimmer.
D．The swimming event is a show of courage rather than a fierce competition.
【小題5】What’s the best title for the passage?
A．Compete for Gold!B．Try again!
C．Break a Record!D．Go for it!

In the last few years the Internet has become a widespread phenomenon(現(xiàn)象) around the world. People have started to use the computers just like they used to watch TV. Whenever we get hungry, we simply order a pizza through the Internet and while we are waiting for the food, we can send an important business e-mail concerning some sales for tomorrow.

Sometimes when you are sad and are feeling lonely, if you go on the Internet, you can find good entertainment that will keep you busy.

Besides, there is so much information easy to get on the Internet that when we start surfing, we find it hard for us to get away from the computer.

科目：高中英語 來源：2010年鄭州智林學校高一下學期期末考試英語卷 題型：閱讀理解

Allen : I’ve never been a big fan of the bears , especially the vacation show . On my last trip to Disneyland (1999) we passed it by , because we didn’t want to spend the time on something we didn’t really enjoy. If we’d known it would be closed by our next visit , I’m sure we would have watched it one more time . I was just making the point that it wasn’t until Disney announced the closing that this feeling suddenly sprang (彈跳) up for the Country Bear show at Disneyland .
But I think the idea of keeping some attractions (勝跡) open forever regardless of (不顧及) the number of visitors it gets is a mistake . We all have great memories of the Bears , but clearly very few kids today (or I should say families today ) are making those same memories from this show . That may be a sad fact , but it’s a fact . For whatever reason , the show doesn’t pull in the numbers . Isn’t it right to use the Country Bear space to bring in a more popular attraction so that more kids today can make those magic memories of an attraction THEY like ? Otherwise aren’t we just telling kids today that they “have to” make great memories of the Bears , when it’s obvious that the kids themselves are not enjoying the Bears like we did ?
Roger : I am very disappointed that they have decided to retire the Country Bear Playhouse . I remember going to the show as a child , and still enjoyed it as a teenager ,
and now young adult . It is true that there aren’t a lot of shows left at DL and with this one closing even less . Being at DL does require a lot of walking , and it is nice to have a few attractions that are a place to sit and enjoy a good show . I understand that DL has to develop , but there has to be some history to the Disneyland that Walt Disney first designed . There should be some parts of DL that just never go away , and this is one of them . By the time I have children it looks like there won’t be any attractions that I can say I went to as a child at the rate they are going .
Now the Bears are leaving . What I want to say is: stop trying to compete with everyone ! DL is the best , because of attractions like the Country Bears . If DL insists on destroying all of its magic to make way for the latest , well , then it might as well be just another theme (主題) park .
【小題1】What news might get people talking about the problem of the Country Bears ?

A．The Country Bear Playhouse will be closed .
B．There will be a new attraction for our guests at Disneyland
C．The number of visitors to the Country Bear Playhouse is falling .
D．The Bears will retire because of old age and can’t give shows any more .
【小題2】Allen spoke mainly to get his point across that           .
A．the Bears will be missed
B．we should tell kids today that they “have to” make great memories of the Bears
C．the longtime attraction ought to make way for a future attraction
D．people never care about what they have until all is lost
【小題3】Which is the best choice to complete Roger’s idea : “The Country Bears have been a part of Disneyland for nearly 30 years ,         .”
A．and I feel it is time to give our bears a good rest
B．but anyway , the attraction has lost interest
C．but I know that Disneyland will always be changing , and I accept that
D．and I am sad that the Bears will be leaving
【小題4】Which of the following is not in the same group as the other three ?
A．an attraction B．a theme parkC．the Bears D．the latest magic
【小題5】Where can this passage be found ?
A．In a Web discussion zone (區(qū)).
B．In a suggestion book .
C．In a report on the popularity of the Country Bears .
D．In high school students’ compositions
