2．Nowadays it is a trend in China to buy things looking nice，especially when people decide to buy something as a gift for their friends．Doing so has automatically triggered a rapid development in packaging industry，but also caused a huge waste in our national resources．
A good example is to buy a bag of Chinese tea．The tea itself may cost more than 500CNY but it includes nearly 200CNY，for the package．Does it mean high quality when you buy goods in an attractive case？The answer is"perhaps"．"Perhaps"here means 50% of a chance to buy something really good and the other 50% of the chance is to buy something crap or fake．One of my friends bought a bottle of Maotai for l800CNY，"and he was absolutely embarrassed to find there to be water in it in front of his invited guests．It is crazy．
Things have become so expensive and so well packed that many companies produce fake products，playing the same trick．We should criticize the manufacturers that produce crap and fake goods，but should those companies that charge their customers a large amount of money just for the package be praised？No．As customers，we need to think about the question：why do we have to chase the superficial things when we buy things？Why do we have to buy friends expensive gifts？Are a notebook computer，an iPhone and electronics really something we have to buy as gifts to someone？Can we not change our ways to show our love to our beloved ones just with an item suitable instead of telling them how much it is worth？If we make statistics in our population，it is easy to find out that 99% of the people would express their hatred for bribery and corrupted officials．However，how many of us have ever asked ourselves a question like"What have I done in the past year that has promoted corruptions in our country？"

62．Through the second example in Paragraph 2，the author wants to indicate thatB．
A．buying things looking nice is a good choice
B．things with good package don't necessarily mean good quality
C．some companies charge customers too much money for the package
D．his f'riends are angry to the fake Maotai．
63．Which of the following word is similar to the underlined word"crap"？A
A．rubbishy B．valuable C expensive D rotten
64．Which may be the best choice when we buy something for our beloved ones？B
A．An electronic product．
B．Something best suitable to show our love．
C．An expensive and good-looking gift．
C．A bag of Chinese tea．
65．Which of the following statements is the author probably in favor of？A
A．A great number of people have done many things related to corruption．
B．To choose presents，we should pay much attention to superficial things．
C．There is a minority of people hating bribery．
D．Many companies play different tricks to promote the sales of their fake products．

分析作者通过给朋友买礼物而造成资源的巨大浪费，号召我们采取措施抵制腐败．

解答 BABA
62：B 推理推断题．由第二段中的"Does it mean high quality when you buy goods in an attractive case？The answer is‘perhaps'．"可知，作者想阐明外包装吸引人的商品未必质量就好．故B正确．
63 A 猜测词义题．根据文章第二段 Perhaps"here means 50% of a chance to buy something really good and the other 50% of the chance is to buy something crap or fake可知Perhaps的意思是50%的机会买好的东西，50%的机会买假的或者垃圾的东西，故选A．
64：B 细节理解题．由第三段中的"Can we not change our ways to show our love to our beloved ones just with an item suitable instead of telling them how much it is worth？"可知给最爱的人买东西的时候最好的选择是买能表达爱的最恰当的礼物，故选B．
65 A 推理判断题．由第三段中的"However，how many of us have ever asked ourselves a question like‘What have I done in the past year that has promoted corruptions in our country？'"可知作者支持我们做很多事情抵制腐败，故选A．

点评做阅读理解时要快速的浏览全文，把握文章主旨大意，带着问题回到原文，寻找细节或概括相应的答案，最后要理清作者写作思路．

12．You either have it，or you don't---a sense of direction，that is．But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map，while others can lose themselves in the next street？
    Scientists say we're all born with a sense of direction，but it is not properly understood how it works．One theory is that people with a sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it．Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don't use it，we lose it．
"Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around，"says Jim Martland，Research Chief of the project．"However，if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car，they never develop the skills．"
    Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction．He makes the following suggestions：
l If you are using a map，turn it，and it relates to the way you are facing．
l If you leave your bike in a strange place，put it near something like a big stone or a tree．Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike．When you return，go back along the same route．
l Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town，streams，or walls in the countryside to guide you．Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are．
    Now you need never get lost again!
33．Scientists believe thatD．
A．some babies are born with a sense of direction
B．people learn a sense of direction as they grow older
C．people never lose their sense of direction
D．Everybody possesses a sense of direction from birth
34．If you leave your bike in a strange place，you shouldD．
A．tie it to a tree so as to prevent it from being stolen
B．draw a map of the route to help remember where it is
C．avoid taking the same route when you come back to it
D．remember something easily recognizable on the route
35．According to the passage，the best way to find your way around is toB．
A．ask policemen for directions

13．A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it．Some children reach eagerly for the candy they see．Some last a few minutes before they give in．But others are determined to wait until the last moment．
By the time the children reach high school，something amazing has happened．A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular，adventurous，confident and dependable．The children who gave in to temptation （诱惑） early were more likely to be lonely，easily upset in time of difficulties and inflexible （固守己见的）．
Actually，the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ test．
The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists'concerns．But brain theory can't explain what we wonder about most，like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would defeat a less resistant （有抵抗力的） person．
Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman，writer of Emotional Intelligence：when it comes to predicting people's success，brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as"character"．
EQ is not the opposite of IQ．What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together； how one's ability to handle stress，for instance，affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use．Among the ingredients （要素） for success，researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%； the rest depends on everything from social class to luck．
While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously，some few fear EQ invites misuse．
63．Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text？A
A．To introduce the topic of the text．
B．To prove the scientist's wisdom．
C．To amuse both the children and readers．
D．To show us how to do an IQ test．
64．The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that．C
A．the age of 4is a proper time for scientific experiment
B．emotional intelligence won't show up until adolescence
C．the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success
D．candy can be used to measure a person's emotional intelligence
65．The underlined word"upbeat"in Paragraph 4probably means．B
A．kind
B．positive
C．floating
D．negative
66．Which of the following is TRUE of EQ and IQ according to the text？D
A．There is no link between EQ and IQ．
B．The higher a person's IQ is，the higher his or her EQ is．
C．Some people can be blessed with lots of both，but some with little of either．
D．Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together．

10．When my brother and I were young，my Mom would take us on Transportation Days．
It goes like this：you can't take any means of transport more than once．We would start from home walking two blocks to the railway station．We'd take the train into the city center，then a bus，switching to the tram，then maybe a taxi．We always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic district，but we didn't like the way the horses were treated，so we never did．At the end of the day，we took the subway to our closest station，where Mom's friend was waiting to give us a ride home-our first car ride of the day．
The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get around．She was born to be multimodal（多方式的）．She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and，above all，a failure of confidence-the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels．
Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform，nothing is frightening any more．New cities are just light-rail lines to be explored．And your personal car，if you have one，becomes just one more tool in the toolbox-and often an inadequate one，limiting both your mobility and your wallet．
On Transportation Days，we might stop for lunch on Chestnut Street or buy a new book or toy，but the transportation was the point．First，it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window．As I got older，my Mom helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself：How do I know where to get off？How do I know how much it costs？How do I know when I need tickets，and where to get them？What track，what line，which direction，where's the stop，and will I get wet when we go under the river？
I'm writing this right now on an airplane，a means we didn't try on our Transportation Days and，we now know，the dirtiest and most polluting of them all．My flight routed me through Philadelphia．My multimodal Mom met me for dinner in the airport．She took a train to meet me．

62．Which was forbidden by Mom on Transportation Days？B
A．Having a car ride．
B．Taking the train twice．
C．Buying more than one toy．
D．Touring the historic district．
63．According to the writer，what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days？A
A．Building confidence in herself．
B．Reducing her use of private cars．
C．Developing her sense of direction．
D．Giving her knowledge about vehicles．
64．The underlined word"paralyzed"（in Para.5）is closest in meaning to"D"．
A．displayed
B．misunderstood
C．forgot
D．ruined
65．Which means of transportation does the writer probably dislike？A
A．Airplane．B．Subway．C．Tram．D．Car．

17．Christmas is a season of joy and cheer，but it may be unlucky for bird owners who don't keep an eye on their birds．Christmas is a time when birds would get injured more easily．To help make sure that your pet has a merry holiday this year，follow the tips below．
Be careful when you are decorating （装饰） your house．Keep your birds away from any lights or decorations，and above all，the Christmas tree．A bite to a wire or light bulb might cause burns，and the glass decorations might hurt the birds．
Keep your birds away from gift wrapping materials．The inks used to print them could often be harmful．Besides，ribbons （丝带） may get caught around your bird's neck，legs and toes．This can cause serious injuries or even death to them．
Don't share the holiday meal．Birds will feel encouraged when their owners share food with them，but many holiday dishes are bad for the birds'health．So you'd better prepare a separate meal for your birds．
You may let your birds drink some juice，but never wine．It can be deadly to birds．
Birds can get stressed easily if they are among sights，sounds，and people that they are not familiar with．Leave your birds in a quiet area of your home until the party is over．

11．Overpopulation is one of the serious problems that the whole world is facing．Many
countries are trying to handle it．Among them，Brazil has become one of the developing world's great successes at reducing population growth-but more by accident than design．While countries such as India have made joint efforts to reduce birth rates，Brazil has had better result without really trying，says George Martine at Harvard．
Brazil's population growth rate has dropped from 2.99% a year between 1951and 1960to 1.93% a year between 1981and 1990，and Brazilian women now have only 2.7children on average．Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 1990，an achievement that makes it the envy of many other Third World countries．
Martine puts it down to，among other things，soap operas and installment （分期付款） plans introduced in the 1970s．both played an important，although indirect，role in lowering the birth rate．Brazil is one of the world's biggest producers of soap operas．Globo，Brazil's most popular television network，shows three hours of soaps six nights a week，while three others show at least one hour a night．Most soaps are based on wealthy characters living the high life in big cities．
"Although they have never really tried to work in a message towards the problems of reproduction，they describe middle and upper class values-not many children，different attitudes towards sex，women working，"says Martine．"They sent this image to all parts of Brazil and made people conscious of other patterns of behavior and other values，which were put into a very attractive package．"
Meanwhile，the installment plans tried to encourage the poor to become consumers．"This led to an enormous change in consumption （消耗、消费） patterns and consumption was incompatible （不相容的） with unlimited reproduction．"Says Martine．

68．According to the passage，Brazil has cut back its population growthB．
A．by educating its citizens 　　　　　　　　
B．by chance
C．by developing TV programs 　　　　　
D．by careful family planning
69．According to the passage，many Third World countriesB．
A．haven't attacked much importance to birth control
B．haven't yet found an effective measure to control their population
C．would soon join Brazil in controlling their birth rate
D．neglected the role of TV plays in family planning
70．Soap operas have helped in lowering Brazil's birth rate becauseC．
A．they keep people sitting long hours watching TV
B．people are drawn to their attractive package
C．they have gradually changed people's way of life
D．they popularize birth control measures
71．What is Martine's conclusion about Brazil's population growth？D
A．The increase in birth rate will increase consumption．
B．A country's production is limited by its population growth．
C．Consumption patterns and reproduction patterns are contradictory （互相矛盾的）
D．The desire for consumption helps to reduce birth rate．
