第二部分:閱讀理解(共25小題,第一節(jié)每題2分,第二節(jié)每小題1分;滿分45分)

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

A

One night I was sitting in my room half ? listening as my 15 year ? old brother fought with my 12 year ? old brother Kevin.I didn’t pay attention when Kevin rushed up the stairs with the hurt on his face.

About 20 minutes later, as I was walking upstairs I heard Kevin crying inside the bathroom.I knocked on the door and asked, “Hey Kevin, do you want to talk?”

No response.I tried again, “Why don’t you come out of there?”

Again, no response.

So, joking around, I grabbed a stack of index cards and a pencil and wrote, “If you don’t want to talk, we can write notes to each other.”

An hour later I was still sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of index cards in front of me.One was blank and one was cars from Kevin on which he had translated all his yucky feelings into words for me.As I read one of Kevin’s notes, tears came to my eyes.It said, “Nobody in this family cares about me.I’m not the youngest, and I’m not the oldest, and I’m not talented.Tommy thinks I’m stupid and Dad wishes he had the other Kevin as a kid because he’s better at basketball.And you’re never around to even notice me.”

Tears came to my eyes again as I wrote back to him.“You know Kevin, I really do love you and I’m sorry I don’t always show it.I am here for you and you are loved in this family.”

There was no response for a while, but then I heard a tearing sound coming from inside the bathroom.Kevin, who had run out of index cards wrote on a torn ? up paper cup, “Thanks.”

I wrote back “For what?” It returned to me with “Loving me” written on it.Since then, I try my best never to half ? notice my family members anymore.Kevin and I have closer relationship now, and sometimes when one of us notices that the other is upset we’ll smile and say “Write it on a paper cup.”

41.Why did Kevin stay inside the bathroom alone crying?

A.Because he lost in the fight with Tommy.

B.Because the author didn’t help him win Tommy.

C.Because he felt no love from the family members.

D.Because he hurt him when rushing up the stairs.

42.The underlined word “yucky” (Para.6) most probably means “           ”.

A.unpleasant                     B.exciting                  C.doubtful                 D.frightening

43.What could be the reason that Kevin’s Dad doesn’t like him?

A.Kevin likes fighting with others.

B.Kevin is not good at playing basketball.

C.Kevin doesn’t want to talk to others.

D.Kevin is not talented as his brother.

44.What did the author learn from the incident?

A.It’s hard to comfort young brothers at home.

B.It’s dangerous to half ? notice someone in the family.

C.It’s important for family members to show their love.

D.The best way to communicate with family members is by writing.

B

For many years, I was convinced that my suffering was due to my size.I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts, and rejections with it.

Many weight ? conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything.Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved, being special, and being cherished.We fantasize about what it will be like when we reach the long ? awaited goal.We work very hard to realize this dream.Then, at last, we find ourselves there.

But we often gain back what we have lost.Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different.Next time, we will keep it off.Next time, being thin finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self ? worth, and, of course, love.

It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty.Beauty standards vary with culture.In Samoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds.More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us try hard to change our body, but in vain.We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves.When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.

45.The passage seems to emphasize the importance of         

A.body size                                        B.a(chǎn)ttitudes toward life

C.cultural differences                                 D.different beauty standards

46.What does the underlined part “in vain” in the last paragraph mean?

A.Without success.   B.Without purpose.   C.In doubt.            D.In trouble.

47.What can be inferred about the author?

A.The author is a Samoan.

B.The author succeeded in losing weight.

C.The author has been troubled by her / his weight.

D.The author probably got wounded in wars or accidents.

48.According to the author, what is the common view of those who have lost some weight first and gained it back later?

A.They feel angry about the regained weight.

B.They pay little attention to the regained weight.

C.They feel optimistic about future plans on weight control.

D.They think they should give up their future plans on weight control.

C

Reading poems is not exactly an everyday activity for most people.In fact, many people never read a poem once they get out of high school.

It is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case in America.In the nineteenth century, a usual American activity was to sit around the fireside in the evening and read poems aloud.It is true that there was no television at the time, nor movie theaters, nor World Wide Web, to provide diversion.However, poems were a source of pleasure, of self-education, of connection to other people or to the world beyond one’s own community.Reading them was a social act as well as an individual one, and perhaps even more social than individual.Writing poems to share with friends and relations was, like reading poems by the fireside, another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life.

How did things change? Why are most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry, and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems?

There are, I believe, three culprits(肇事者):poets, teachers, and we ourselves.Of these, the least important is the third: the world surrounding the poem has betrayed us more than we have betrayed the poem.Early in the twentieth century, poetry in English headed into directions unfavorable to the reading of poetry.Readers decided that poems were not for the fireside or the easy chair at night, that they belonged where other difficult-to-read things belonged.

Poets failed the reader, so did teachers.They want their students to know something about the skills of a poem, they want their students to see that poems mean something.Yet what usually occurs when teachers push these concerns on their high school students is that young people decide poems are unpleasant crossword puzzles.

49.Reading poems is thought to be a social act in the nineteenth century because         

A.it built a link among people                         B.it helped unite a community

C.it was a source of self-education                   D.it was a source of pleasure

50.The underlined word “diversion”(in Paragraph 2) most probably means “         ”.

A.concentration          B.change                    C.a(chǎn)musements            D.stories

51.According to the passage, what is the main cause of the great gap between readers and poetry?

A.Students are becoming less interested in poetry.

B.Students are poorly educated in high school.

C.TV and the Internet are more attractive than poetry.

D.Poems have become difficult to understand.

52.In the last paragraph, the writer questions         

A.the difficulty in studying poems               B.the way poems are taught in school

C.students’ wrong ideas about poetry              D.the techniques used in writing poems

“America’s No.1 Health Problem.” So reads the headline of an article published by the American Institute of Stress that claims the biggest threat to health today is neither cancer nor AIDS.The report says: “It has been estimated(估計(jì))that 75 to 90 percent of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress related problems.”   

It is no exaggeration(夸張)to say that people today are being attacked by stress.According to the National Consumers League, “Work is the top source of stress for adults who have problems and stress in their lives (39%), followed by family (30%).Other sources include health (10%), concern about the economy (9%) and concern about international conflict and terrorism (4%).”

However, stress is hardly unique to the United States.A British survey in 2005 estimated that “over half a million individuals in Britain believed in 2004 that they were experiencing work-related stress at a level that was making them ill.” As a result of “work-related stress, depression or anxiety,” there are “an estimated thirteen and a half million reported lost working days per year in Britain.”  

The picture is no less bleak in mainland Europe.According to the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, “work-related stress has been shown to affect millions of European workers across all types of employment sectors.” One survey revealed that there are “about 41 million workers affected by work-related stress each year.”  

What about Asia? A report issued by a conference held in Tokyo concluded: “Job stress is a common concern among many countries in the world, both developing and industrialized countries.” The report observed that “several countries in East Asia, including China and Korea, have rapidly industrialized and economically grown.These countries now have a lot of concerns on job stress and its harmful effects on workers’ health.”

53.The author quoted “America’s No.1 Health Problem.” (Para.1) in order to ______.

A.talk about health problems in America  

B.introduce the topic of stress  

C.emphasize the stress in America   

D.tell readers something about American Institute of Stress

54.From the passage we can learn that         

A.both cancer and AIDS are not as serious as the threat of stress to health

B.stress is mainly from working and living pressure

C.Americans never care about international conflict and terrorism

D.people in mainland Europe are more optimistic than English people

55.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.

A.Asian people are more willing to develop their countries

B.the rapid economic development is the main reason for stress  

C.some people in Asian countries have health problems from employment stress 

D.Asian countries have a better situation of stress than Europe

56.What’s the main subject of the passage? 

A.Stress attacking health.                             B.How to deal with stress.

C.A survey on working stress.                       D.Health problems around the world.

A sunflower is a sunflower.A mobile phone is a mobile phone.But can you combine the two to do something for your local environment? As early as next year it may well be possible.When you have finished with your mobile phone you will be able to bury it in a garden or a plant pot and wait for it to flower.

A biodegradable(生物所能分解的)mobile phone was, this month, introduced by scientists.It is hoped that the new type of phone will encourage consumers to recycle.

Scientists have come up with a new material over the last five years.It looks like any other plastic and can be hard or soft, and is able to change shape.Over time it can also break down into the soil without giving out any poisonous chemicals.British researchers used the new material to develop a phone cover that contains a sunflower seed.When this new type of cover turns into waste, it forms fertilizers.These feed the seed and help the flower grow.

Engineers have designed a small transparent(透明的)window to hold the seed.They have made sure it only grows when the phone is thrown away.“We’ve only put sunflower seeds into the covers so far.But we are working with plant experts to find out which flowers would perform best.Maybe we could put roses in next time,” said one scientist.

As phone technology is developing so quickly, people are constantly throwing their mobiles away.This means manufacturers are under pressure to find ways of recycling them.Some 650 million mobile phones have been sold this year.Most of them will be thrown away within two years, adding plastic, heavy metal and chemical waste to the environment.A biodegradable cover can offer some relief(緩解)for nature , according to the scientists.

“The seed comes out and the flower grows in the pot so you don’t have to concern yourself with the phone when you have finished using it,” said Kerry Kirwan.She leads the research team, which is based at the University of Warwick in Britain.

57.What is the purpose of this passage?

A.To tell the popularity of biodegradable cell phones.

B.To persuade the reader to buy the biodegradable cell phone.

C.To discuss the development of phone technology.

D.To introduce an environmental-friendly cell phone to readers.

58.People throw away their cell phones most probably because           

A.there is something wrong with them

B.no sunflowers can grow out of them

C.they are out of fashion

D.they are becoming cheaper and cheaper

59.It could be learned from the passage that           

A.developing the new type of phone is mainly to protect the environment

B.phone-makers will benefit much more from the new type of phone

C.the new type of phone will certainly be popular with users all over the world

D.the phones that can be recycled are available only in Britain now

60.What might be the most suitable title for this passage?

A.Sunflower and Phone.                          B.Plant Your Phone.

C.Protect Our Environment.                       D.No Worry about Phone.
