    第二部分：阅读理解(第一节20小题。第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分)

    第一节：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，并在答题纸上将该

    选项标号涂黑。

         When you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground. I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way.

         It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie's basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green.

         "Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint. " She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes ( 条纹) of colors across the pavement (人行道). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was fantastic!

         The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn't wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother's face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.

         My mother shut the ear door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, "What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors' trees, but this! Come inside right now !" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art.

         "Now go clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement.

         Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.

    1. What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?

       A. To introduce Stephanie to her.          B. To prevent her from seeing his painting.

       C. To put the materials back in the yard.    D. To show his artwork to her.

    2. In his mother's eyes, the writer __ .

       A. was a born artist                          B. always caused trouble

       C. was a problem solver                      D. worked very hard

    3. The underlined word "rainbow" in the last paragraph refers to __ .

       A. the rainbow in the sky                     B. the stripes on the pavement

       C. something imaginative and fun              D. important lessons learned in childhood

    4. It can be learned from the passage that parents should       .

    A. encourage children to paint          

    B. value friendship among children

    C. discover the hidden talent in children 

    D. protect rather than destroy children's dreams

    The blue tits(山雀) have been inspecting the nest-box again this year. The male is the house-hunter but the female will make the final choice. He lands at the hole and turns his head to expose his white cheeks as a signal to attract the female from where she has been feeding.
    Among many birds that nest in holes, the male has a light-coloured patch on its plumage(鸟羽) which acts as signal for drawing the female’s attention to a suitable nesting-place. Unlike the blue tit, the redstart(红尾鸲) may be only the male that strikingly coloured and the female is not beautiful.
    A few years ago I was lucky enough to spot a pair of redstarts in action in a Walsh wood. The male was leading an interested female to holes that he had previously(先前) checked out. He sat at the entrance of each hole and put his head on to show off his white forehead, or his head in to reveal(显露) his tail.
    If the female failed to react to his visual signals, the male sometimes sang for extra effect, while gliding towards her on spread wings and tail. Once the female accepts by following the male through the hole the displays stop, you must be at the right place at the right time to watch them.
    【小题1】How do the blue tits choose their nest?

    A．They choose their nest together.B．The male chooses their nest.
    C．The house-hunter chooses their nest. D．The female chooses their nest.
    【小题2】The writer was lucky to see ________.
    A．how the male made his tricks
    B．how an interested female played with the male happily
    C．what the male displayed and won the female
    D．that the male tried his best but failed to attract the female
    【小题3】You can spot a pair of redstarts in a Walsh wood ________.
    A．at any timeB．regularlyC．in AprilD．occasionally
    【小题4】The writer is probably ________.
    A．a bird expertB．a bird-hunterC．a bird raiserD．a scientist

    C
    Imagine a world 400 years ago where children were used as chimney sweeps. The pay was low, it was a dirty trade and there was little reward for the men who did the job and even less for children.
    Medway’s annual Sweeps Festival recreates the joy and laughter enjoyed by the chimney sweeps at their traditional holiday: the one time of the year the sweeps could leave the soot（烟灰） behind and have some fun. The sweeps’ holiday was traditionally held on 1 May each year. Locally, they used to mark the occasion by staging a procession through the streets of Rochester.
    Their fun continued with the Jack-in-the-Green ceremony, a seven-foot character that they used to waken at dawn on Blue Bell Hill, Chatham. The Jack-in-the-Green would walk with the chimney sweeps in their parade. When the Climbing Boys’ Act 1868 made it illegal to employ young boys to carry out the trade, the traditional procession gradually began to fade. The final May celebration was held in the early 1900s.
    The modern day Rochester Sweeps Festival is a colorful mix of music, dancing and entertainment with more than 60 Morris sides and entertainers celebrating throughout the three-day festival. The festival was revived in 1981 by local businessman Gordon Newton, a keen historian. He decided it was time to bring it back and over the years he has helped develop the festival into what it is today — an excellent performance of traditional Britain.
    Gordon researched the Sweeps’ tradition and organized a small parade, involving local Morris teams. In time, Medway Council took over organization of the festival but Gordon remained actively involved. Today he is festival producer and plays melodeon（簧风琴） for several Morris teams. Doug Hudson is the festival’s music director, a role he has held for many years. Through Gordon’s vision and hard work, Doug’s musical ability and the council’s help, the Rochester Sweeps Festival has become the largest May Day celebration of its kind in the country.
    66. According to the writer, chimney sweeps ____________.
    A. were highly respected              B. were well rewarded
    C. led a hard life in the past            D. worked in good conditions
    67. Medway’s Sweeps Festival ____________.
    A. has been organized by the Jack-in-the-Green
    B. dated back to the May celebration in the early 1900s
    C. is held to honor those chimney sweeps every other year
    D. has become a time for chimney sweeps to enjoy themselves
    68. The underlined word “revive” in the 4th paragraph most probably means ___________.
    A. realize          B. review         C. recreate         D. recognize
    69. It can be inferred from the passage that ____________.
    A. the festival has never been supported by the local government
    B. The festival is a good way to see British folk customs in action
    C. youngsters has been forbidden to be chimney sweeps since 1981
    D. the modern festival lasts five days celebrating the coming of spring
    70. What is the passage mainly concerned about?
    A. Sweeps Festival history                       B. Medway’s traditional holidays
    C. Climbing Boys’ Act 1868                    D. a procession in Rochester

    Once in a blue moon,(极为罕见) there is one on New Year's Eve. Revelers ringing in 2010 will be treated to a so-called blue moon. According to popular definition, a blue moon is the second full moon in a month. But don't expect it to be blue - the name has nothing to do with the color of our closest celestial(天空的) neighbor. A full moon occurred on December 2. It will appear again on Thursday in time for the New Year's countdown.
    The New Year's Eve blue moon will be visible in the United States, Canada, Europe, South America and Africa. For partygoers in Australia and Asia, the full moon does not show up until New Year's Day, making January a blue moon month for them.
    A full moon occurs every 29.5 days, and most years have 12. On average, an extra full moon in a month - a blue moon - occurs every 2.5 years. The last time there was a lunar double take was in May 2007. New Year's Eve blue moons are rarer, occurring every 19 years. The last time was in 1990; the next one won't come again until 2028.
    “Blue moons have no astronomical significance,” said Greg Laughlin, an astronomer at the University of California. “`Blue moon' is just a name in the same sense as a `hunter's moon'(a full moon in octorber) or a `harvest moon,'” Laughlin said in an e-mail.
    The popular definition of blue moon came about after a writer for Sky & Telescope magazine in 1946 misinterpreted the Maine Farmer's Almanac and labeled a blue moon as the second full moon in a month. In fact, the almanac(年历) defined a blue moon as the third full moon in a season with four full moons.
    【小题1】What’s the color of blue moon?

    A．blueB．goldenC．greenD．red
    【小题2】If you are in China, in which month can you see the blue moon?
    A．December, 2009B．November, 2009
    C．January, 2010D．February, 2010
    【小题3】Compared with the hunters moon, the blue moon ________ .
    A．is more beautifulB．is rarerC．is largerD．is brighter
    【小题4】Which full moon should be called blue moon according to the original definition?
    A．The second full moon in a month with two full moons.
    B．The third full moon in a month with three full moons.
    C．The second full moon in a season with four full moons.
    D．The third full moon in a season with four full moons.
    【小题5】What would be the best title for the passage ?
    A．Rare New Year’s Eve Blue Moon to Ring in 2010
    B．Blue Moon to Take Us Good Fortune
    C．The Best Time to Observe Blue Moon
    D．The Reason for Blue Moon’s Appearing
