    1．Brother James Kimpton，an Englishman，has been planting trees for a lifetime and doesn't plan on stopping now．The founder of Reaching the Unreached （RTU） has been serving among the poorest and most disadvantaged communities of India for the last 50years．
    It's difficult to describe Brother Kimpton's work．He digs wells，builds homes，run schools，dresses wounds，helps the disabled，feeds the hungry，trains the unskilled，and shelters the abandoned．At 27，he was sent on foreign duty to Sri Lanka．For 12year，he taught in the slums（贫民窟）．In 1964when the government ordered all foreigners to leave the country，he caught a ship to India and travelled to the city of Madurai．"The minute I got there I knew I'd come home．"
    Brother Kimpton founded an orphanage（孤儿院）in Madurai，a huge organization modeled after Nebraska's Boys Town．But this was only a beginning．The suffering and helplessness he saw in India led him to start RTU．What began as a single，modest medical clinic has today developed into a diverse network of highly efficient programs aimed at comprehensive and sustainable （可持续的）rural development．
    There're many wonders at RTU．As an architect，artist，educator，economist，medical worker，James did a lot：over 2000wells have been dug in this area bringing clean，safe water to the villages； over 6000homes have been built and given away to the very poor； daycare centers have been set up that now feed and treat close to 2000poor children every day； over 2000receive free education in the schools he built and runs…
    In his last will，Brother Kimpton has requested to be buried at Anbu Illam．Speaking to the audience gathered to celebrate his 50th year of service in Asia，he said，"I'm an Indian by choice．"
    He's smiling，but there's something touching in his words．
    51．Which of the following is TRUE about James Kimpton？D
    A．He went to Madurai on a business trip．
    B．He founded an orphanage in Sri Lanka．
    C．He does many kinds of jobs to make a living．
    D．He has devoted most of his life to helping others．
    52．What did James Kimpton mean by saying"I knew I'd come home．B"？
    A．He was warmly welcomed there
    B．He fell in love with it
    C．He was familiar with it
    D．He was born there．
    53．From the text，we can learn that RTUC．
    A．began as a medical school
    B．was modeled after Nebraska's Boys Town．
    C．focus on the development of rural areas in India．
    D．aims at helping the poor around the world．
    54．What is Paragraph 4mainly about？A
    A．RTU's achievements  
    B．James Kimpton's plan
    C．RTU's development            
    D．James Kimpton's success．

    分析 文章介绍了Brother James Kimpton，一位英国人，常年在印度做着伟大的慈善工作，将自己的一生奉献于此．他将受到全世界的尊敬．

    解答 51-54 DBCA
    51．D    细节理解题．从第二段倒数第二句he travelled to the city of Madurai可知A是错误的，从第三段的第一句可知B是错误的，从全文可知他一生中做过很多事情，都是在帮助别人，而没有说是做过很多工作目的是为了谋生，故C也是错误的．
    52．B  句意猜测题．原文没有提到他到了Madurai 受到欢迎，故A是错误的；从第一段第一句可知他是英国人，故D是错误的；在斯里兰卡12年，受到政府驱赶，因此他来到了印度，故C说他熟悉印度是错误的．
    53．C  推理判断题．从第一段最后一句可知C是正确的．从第三段第四句可知A是错误的，不是medical school 而是modest medical clinic；
    54．A  主旨大意题．从第四段的第一句以及后面的一系列数字表明了RTU的成就．

    点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是，仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案，这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱．所谓阅读理解，对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文，因此，每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查，再得出答案．也就是说，阅读理解的每一道题目，在原文都应该有明确的出处，我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句，（1）排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项（2）排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项  （3）排除用于过于极端或负面的选项（4）注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除．

    12．Once upon a time，a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the family's only roll of expensive gold wrapping paper．Money was tight，and he became even more upset when he saw that the child had pasted（粘贴）the gold paper so as to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree．
    Nevertheless，the next morning the little girl，filled with excitement，brought the gift box to her father and said，"This is for you，Daddy!"
    Seeing the box，the father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction．But when he opened it，he found it was empty and again his anger burst out．"Don't you know，young lady，"he shouted，"when you give someone a present，there's supposed to be something inside the package？"
    The little girl looked up at him with tears rolling from her eyes and said："Daddy，it's not empty．I blew kisses into it until it was all full．"
    The father broke down．He fell on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl．He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger．
    Only a short time later，an accident took the life of the child．It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life．Whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box，take out an imaginary kiss，and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there．
    In a real sense，each of us has been given a"gold box"filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children，family，friends and God．There is no more precious possession anyone could hold．

    56．The underlined words"overreaction"in the third paragraph refers toA．
    A．anger
    B．excitement
    C．surprise
    D．thankfulness
    57．From the passage we know that the family wasB．
    A．happy
    B．poor
    C．lucky
    D．wealthy
    58．Which of the following can be inferred from the passage？C
    A．The father should be responsible for his daughter's death．
    B．The girl had thought her father would be angry with her gift．
    C．The gold box meant much to the father after the daughter's death．
    D．The daughter's death discouraged her father from doing anything．

    16．Jenny lived in a town．Her father．Mr Young，had a shop there and sold clothes in it．The shopkeepers was born in a poor family and was in school no more than a year．He was always sorry for it though he had much money now．He hoped his daughter could become a scientist．But the girl didn't like anything else except singing．She often went to the concerts，bought a lot of records the famous pop stars made and insisted on listening to the music when she was free．Of course she wanted to be a pop star，too．Her parents wanted to prevent her，but she didn't listen to them and they had to agree to her choice．They engaged an old man who was good at music as a private teacher．

    6．However important we may regard school life to be，there is no denying the fact that children spend more time at home than in the classroom．Therefore，the great influence of parents cannot be ignored or discounted by the teacher．They can become strong allies of the school personnel or they can consciously or unconsciously hinder and frustrate curricular objectives．
    Administrators have been aware of the need to keep parents informed of the newer methods used in schools．Many principles have conducted workshops explaining such matters as the reading readiness program，manuscript writing and developmental mathematics．Moreover，the classroom teacher，with the permission of the supervisors，can also play an important role in enlightening parents．The informal tea and the many interviews carried on during the year，as well as new ways of reporting pupils'progress，can significantly aid in achieving a harmonious interplay between school and home．
    To illustrate，suppose that a father has been drilling Junior in arithmetic processes night after night．In a friendly interview，the teacher can help the parent sublimate （升华） his natural paternal interest into productive channels．He might be persuaded to let Junior participate in discussing the family budget，buying the food，using a standard or measuring cup at home，setting the clock，calculating mileage on a trip and engaging in scores of other activities that have a mathematical basis．
    If the father follows the advice，it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize his son is making satisfactory progress in mathematics，and at the same time，enjoying the work．Too often，however，teachers'conferences with parents are devoted to petty （不重要的） accounts of children's misdeeds，complaints about laziness and poor work habits，and suggestion for penalties and rewards at home．
    What is needed is a more creative approach in which the teacher，as a professional adviser，plants ideas in parents'minds for the best utilization of the many hours that the child spends out of the classroom．
    In this way，the school and the home join forces in fostering the fullest development of youngsters'capacities．
    （Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements with NO MORE THAN 14WORDS）

    78．Why do parents also have great influence on children？Because their children spend more time with them than with the teacher．
    79．Through which ways can the teacher play an important role in enlightening parents？Through informal tea，interviews and reporting pupil's progress．
    80．According to the teacher，that parent should let the boyengage in activities that have a mathematical basis if he wants to sublimate his natural paternal interest into productive channels in teaching his son arithmetic．
    81．A more creative approach is needed forthe best utilization of the many hoursof children out of classroom．

    10．When several people look at the same person，it is not unusual for each of them to see different things； when you are alone observing one behavior or a person at two different times，you may see different things．The followings are but some of the factors that lead to these varying perceptions（感知，认识）：
    （1）Each person's perceptions of others are formed by his or her own cultural conditioning，education，and personal experiences．
    （2）Sometimes perceptions differ because of what we choose to observe and how we deal with what've observed．It is not necessarily true that person perception is based on observations of a particular person．Your observations may be totally controlled by what others have told you about this person； or you may focus primarily on the situation or role relationship．Most people do not use the same standard to measure their parents，their friends，and strangers．
    （3）Sometimes we see only what we want to see or don't see what may be obvious to others because of our own needs，desires，or temporary emotional states．This is a process known as selective perception．Selective perception is obviously more difficult when contradictory information is particularly obvious，but it can be done．We can ignore the   stimulus--"He's basically a good boy so what I saw was not shoplifting（入店行窃）．"We can reduce the importance of the contradictory information--"All kids get into mischief（顽皮）．Taking a book from a bookstore isn't such a big deal．"We can change the meaning of the contradictory information---"It wasn't shoplifting because he was going to pay for it later．"…

    26．The first factor given by the author that affects our perception isB．
    A．our hearing and visual abilities        B．cultural background and personal experiences
    C．the experience one learns from others   D．critical measures taken by other people
    27．While observing a particular person，D．
      A．one is likely to take all aspects into consideration      
      B．one pays more attention to his/her advantages
      C．children often differ from grown-ups in perception       
      D．one tends to choose certain aspects to look at
    28．Observation of the same person by two people at the same time may differ becauseA．
      A．they follow different standards                          
      B．either of them may be slow to catch information
      C．the time for observation is not long enough
      D．each of them uses different language to express his/her impressions
    29．The underlined word"stimulus"in Paragraph 4refers toC．
     A．something attractive             B．selective perception      
     C．contradictory information        D．shoplifting
    30．The worst thing in selective perception is thatB．
    A．the information received runs against your desire
    B．facts can be twisted or totally ignored
    C．importance of the contradictory information can be overrated （估计过高）
    D．misbehaved children may not be punished．

    The health of the famous picture，painted by Leonardo Da Vinci in 1505，is getting worse by the year，according to the Louvre Museum （卢浮宫博物馆） where it is housed．"The thin，wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago．"the museum said．Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world's most famous painting is not easy．Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current （现在的）chemical state．
    Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year，many attracted by the mystery of her smile．"It is very interesting that when you're not looking at her，she seems to be smiling，and then you look at her and she stops，"said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University．"It's because direct vision is excellent at picking up detail，but less suited to looking at shadows．Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows．"
    However，the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile．Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him，until it was finally sold to France's King Francis I in 1519．
    In 1911，the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee，who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat．He said he planned to return it to Italy．The painting was sent back to France two years later．
    During World WarⅡ，French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German soldiers．Like many old ladies，the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell．
