    A peer is a person who is about the same age as you. Peers affect your life, whether you know it or not, just by spending time with you. 
    Peers can have a good effect on one another. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book and now everyone’s reading it. 
    However, sometimes peers affect one another in another way. For example, one kid in school might try to get another to cut class with him, your soccer friend might try to persuade you to be mean to another player and never pass her the ball, or a kid in the neighborhood might want you to shoplift with him. Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that “everyone’s doing it” may influence some kids to leave their better judgments or their common senses behind. 
    Peer pressure can be extremely strong and hard to get rid of. Experiments have shown how peer pressure can influence someone to change her/ his mind from what she/ he knows for sure is a correct answer to the incorrect answer－just because everyone else gives the incorrect answer! That holds true for people of any age in peer pressure situations. 
    It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure, but it can be done. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away and resist doing something when you know better.
    68. What is the best title for this passage? 
    A. Peers have a good effect   B. Children give in to peer pressure
    C. Peer pressure is hard to resist    D. Peer pressure
    69. The underlined word “shoplift” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.
    A. do some shopping     B. carry goods for shops 
    C. steal in shops            D. take the lift upstairs in shops
    70. The writer will NOT agree that ________.
    A. only children change their correct answers to incorrect ones because of peer pressure
    B. peers have an effect on one another
    C. peer pressure can be got rid of
    D. peers will believe in themselves if there are other peers who agree with them
    71. By writing the passage the writer intends to ________.
    A. tell people to follow other’s opinions
    B. warn people to stay away from their peers
    C. tell it is hard to walk away from pressure
    D. persuade people to do the right thing regardless of peer pressure

    第一节：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
    When Han Duan started her professional career at 16, China’s national women’s football team was defeated in the final of the World Cup by the US. While she was asked to play in her first World Cup in 2003, she largely remained on the bench after the first match.
    But things have changed. Now, Han is one of the most important players in China’s team. “I can’t wait to play. Life is short. You must make the most out of it,” Han always says like that. 
    Han wants every possible honor that a football player can get — an Asian Cup, a World Cup and an Olympic medal. She has always been good at sports, especially swimming and horizontal bars. At school, she was the fastest in the 60m and 100m.
    But the reason she picked football was that she wanted to get more compliments (称赞). “Football is for boys. But I feel more fulfilled when I can do better than them and win more compliments,” she said. Later, when she entered a football school, the coach always asked Han to show others what to do.
    However, nobody can be good at everything. Han described her singing as “howling” and the only school subject she was good at was Chinese. “I was very happy every time my essay was posted on the wall for my schoolmates to read.” But Han still has some regrets about her school years. Her handwriting was terrible at school. She ever wanted to improve her handwriting but didn’t achieve much.
    “My fans ask for my signature (签名), so I’d better practice and practice. It’s not too late,” she says.
    56. In the World Cup in 2003, Han Duan was a(n) ______.
    A. member of the audience     
    B. unimportant player
    C. team captain          
    D. fan of a sports star
    57. What does the underlined part in the second paragraph imply?
    A. Han Duan siezes every chance to learn more to fulfill herself.
    B. Han Duan never wastes any of her practicing time.
    C. Han Duan seizes every chance to take part in matches.
    D. Han Duan has become ill and she will die quite soon.
    58. According to the passage, we know that Han Duan ________.
    A. has won an Asian Cup, a World Cup and an Olympic medal
    B. was good at sports when she was at school
    C. did very well in singing and Chinese when she was at school
    D. often gets compliments because of her beautiful handwriting
    59. From the fourth paragraph, it can be inferred that Han Duan most probably ________.
    A. felt sad as the boys laughed at her
    B. felt proud as she got compliments from others
    C. felt sad as she was too strong as a girl
    D. hated herself as she couldn’t do anything else well
    60. What’s the best title of this passage?
    A. Growth of a sports star.           B. The World Cup.
    C. Honor of a football player.        D. Star of tomorrow.

    Men have always believed that they are smarter than women. Now, a study has found that while this is certainly true, men also have to deal with the fact that they are also more stupid than the fairer sex.
    In the study, scientists measured the IQ of 2500 brothers and sisters and they found an uneven number of men not only in the top two percent, but also in the bottom two percent.
    The study's participants were tested on science, maths, English and mechanical abilities.
    Though there were twice as many men as women in the smartest group, there were also twice as many men among the dolts.
    The aggregate scores of men and women were similar.
    One of the study's authors, psychology professor Timothy Bates, said that the phenomenon may be because men have always been expected to be high achievers and women have been restricted to spend more time taking care of their home.
    "The female developmental program may be tilted more towards ensuring survival and the safety of the middle ground.," the Daily Mail quoted Professor Bates, of Edinburgh University, as saying.
    The research tallies with past results that men were more likely than women to receive first class University degrees or thirds and women secured the seconds.
    It has been said that men are more ready to take risk when it comes to academics. Women have always found to be steadier in their learning.
    A past study has shown that women are securing more firsts and seconds, while men are continuing to receive more thirds.
    The argument for the change is that the increase of coursework at the cost of exams favors women's steady approach.
    51. The purpose of the passage is to tell us that ________.
    A. man are smarter then women
    B. man are more stupid the women
    C. a new fact about the IQ of men and women has been found
    D. men are more likely to receive first class university degrees
    52. According to Timothy Bates, less women are in the smartest group because _________.
    A. they are born stupid
    B. they have to spend more time to tale care of their home than men 
    C. they don’t like to take risk
    D. they are not expected to be high achievers
    53. The underlined word tallies with in the eighth paragraph means________.
    A. agree with      B. deal with     C. go against     D. go with
    54. It can be inferred from the passage that______.
    A. Women are steadier in their learning.
    B. men are more ready to take risk in everything
    C. women are securing more firsts and seconds
    D. women are doing much better in academy
    55. Which of the following questions has NOT been discussed in the passage?
    A. Why are men smarter than women? 
    B. Why are men more stupid than women?
    C. How does the result go along with the past research?
    D. How can we help the men in the bottom?

    Do you ever run out of great books to read? So what should I read next? Is fast-paced crime fiction your thing?
    Try the new Patricia Cornwell book, Scarpetta（Putnam）. She is such an able writer and handles complex forensic（法庭的） intelligence with ease. You need to be prepared, though, for the world you're entering—this isn't for the faint of heart, let's say.
    If peace is more your thing, try Mary Pipher's wonderful new book, Seeking Peace: Chronicles of the Worst Buddhist in the World （Riverhead）. Mary is a lovely, comfortable writer who takes the reader through her personal awakening after reputation and fortune came her way. Even if you've never experienced life as a bestselling writer （as she has done, in her book years back, Reviving Ophelia）, you'll totally understand and sympathize with her renewed need for privacy, distance and quiet.
    What if you want a straightforward, totally thrilling read with vivid characters, set about World War II? You cannot go wrong with Jim Lehrer's new novel, Oh, Johnny（Random House）, about a young Marine whose life is changed forever when he meets a woman on his way to war. His relationship with her lasts him through danger and hardship, and there's an impressive ending. See our interview with the productive novelist/newsman in the current issue of Reader's Digest （March, on stands now）, by the way, for insight into the very talented Mr. Lehrer and what interests him.
    Well, what about something wickedly funny and totally offbeat? Does the name Carrie Fisher do anything for you? Try her vivid and new life in Hollywood and elsewhere, Wishful Drinking（Simon & Schuster）. Be prepared for humor as sharp as knives.
    小题1: What does the writer want to tell us by the underlined sentence?
    A．The world is complex and hard.B．Scarpetta is a thriller.
    C．The fiction is hard to understand.D．Society is hard to fit into.
    小题2:Which of the following is true of Mary Pipher?
    A．She is an adventurous writer.B．She doesn’t care about fortune.
    C．Her books normally sell well.D．She can help you achieve writing skills.
    小题3: To get further information about Jim Lehrer, you may________.
    A．go to Reader’s Digest issued in MarchB．go to Random House
    C．analyze the characters in Oh, JohnnyD．read the novel Oh, Johnny
    小题4:Which book isn’t directly based on the writer’s own life?__________________

    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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    Recently, one of my best friends, whom I’ve shared just about everything with since the first day of kindergarten, spent the weekend with me. Since I moved to a new town several years ago, we’ve both always looked forward to the few times a year when we can see each other.
    Over the weekend, we spent hours and hours, staying up late into the night, talking about the people she was hanging around with. She started telling me stories about her new boyfriend, about how he experimented with drugs and was into other self-destructive behavior. I was blown away! She told me how she had been lying to her parents about where she was going and even stealing out to see this guy because they didn’t want her around him. No matter how hard I tried to tell her that she deserved better, she didn’t believe me. Her self-respect seemed to have disappeared.
    I tried to convince her that she was ruining her future and heading for big trouble. I felt like I was getting nowhere. I just couldn’t believe that she really thought it was acceptable to hang with a bunch of losers, especially her boyfriend.
    By the time she left, I was really worried about her and exhausted by the experience. It had been so frustrating, I had come close to telling her several times during the weekend that maybe we had just grown too far apart to continue our friendship，but I didn’t. I put the power of friendship to the final test. We’d been friends for far too long. I had to hope that she valued me enough to know that I was trying to save her from hurting herself. I wanted to believe that our friendship could conquer anything.
    A few days later, she called to say that she had thought long and hard about our conversation, and then she told me that she had broken up with her boyfriend. I just listened on the other end of the phone with tears of joy running down my face. It was one of the truly rewarding moments in my life. Never had I been so proud of a friend.
    56. In the writer’s opinion, her friend ________.
    A. was a girl with no self-respect
    B. could find a better boyfriend
    C. was brave enough to stick to her own choice
    D. didn’t value the writer’s suggestion
    57. What did the writer worry about?
    A. She would lose the friendship with her.
    B. Her friend’s parents would be worried about their daughter.
    C. Her friend would get into great trouble with the boy.
    D. Her friend’s boyfriend would be in great trouble.
    58. We may leam from Paragraph 3 that the writer ________.
    A. didn’t want to go anywhere else
    B. hated her friend’s hanging with her boyfriend
    C. couldn’t believe that her friend’s choice was acceptable
    D. doubted that she could in any way help her friend
    59. What can be concluded from the passage?
    A. Friendship starting from childhood is not reliable.
    B. Friendship is a cure for any injury in life.
    C. Friendship should be everlasting once begun.
    D. Friendship can have magical power in life.

    It could happen to you
    Many people think there is no need to take special care over home safety.
    “I’ all right, I’m insured(投保).”
    Maybe-----if you’re fully insured. Even then you can never recover the value you place upon your possessions, because you can’t insure against the suffering of mind that we all feel if our homes are torn apart by some strangers, our windows and doors broken, or our possessions ruined.
    “It won’t happen to me.”
    Won’t it? A house is broken into every three minutes of the day. Loss of all kinds, including cars and things stolen from cars, happens every 35 seconds.
    “I’ve nothing worth stealing.”
    You may think not. But in fact everyone has something worth a thief’s attention. And we all have things of personal value, even if they’re worth little or nothing inn hard cash.
    “I’m only a tenant(房客) here.”
    The thieves don’t care whether you’re a tenant or an owner. You’re just as weak either way. Have a word with the owner if you think extra safety fittings are necessary.
    “They all get in anyway.”
    Most thieves are on the lookout for easy pickings. They are soon discouraged by houses they can’t get into quickly and easily. So do pay special attention.
    “This booklet(小册子) will help you…”
    It’s based on the practical experience of police forces throughout the country. Most of the suggestions will cost you only a few minutes and thought. A few may cost some expense, but this is small compared with the loss and sadness you might otherwise suffer.
    If you are in any doubt, ask for free advice from the crime Prevention Office at your local police station.
    60. The passage is mainly about _____.
    A. how to protect your home         B. how to take special care of ourselves
    C. how to hire a safe house in the country     D. how to escape being caught 61. What does the sentence “A few may cost some expense” in the last two paragraphs mean?
    A. You should pay for some of the suggestions.
    B. Following the suggestions means you will have to spend some money on home protection.
    C. some people are willing to pay for the suggestions.
    D. Some of the suggestions are expensive.
    62. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
    A. It’s impossible to prevent a house from being broken into.
    B. Few people would like to get advice from the local police station.
    C. Some thieves are only interested in stealing things from houses protected well.
    D. People should care more about home safety.
    63. This passage is probably a (an) _____.
    A. advertisement for selling safely-guarded houses             
    B. article on crime
    C. booklet from the Crime Prevention Office
    D. suggestion from insurance companies
