    "Tiger Mother" became well known both in the US and China after the publication of the Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua, a professor of Yale University and a Chinese immigrant mother. In the book, Chua describes how she educates her two daughters in a strict "typical Chinese" way. The South University of Science and Technology of China (SUSTC), became "China's first independent university"-the only university to recruit students through its independent exam rather than the National College Entrance Exam adopted by almost all public universities in China.
    Wuhan schoolboy Huang Yibo, 13,known as the deputy chief of all Wuhan's young pioneers, became an overnight sensation after blogging about watching prime time news on China's  Central Television since he was two years old and reading People's Daily since the age of seven because his father asked him to do so. The First Experimental Elementary School of Weiyang district in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, hit the headlines for requiring students with a poor performance to wear a green scarf, distinguishing them from the good performance of the red scarf, a symbol  for  the Young Pioneer organization.
    Dong Fan, a professor from Beijing Normal University, the director of the university's real estate research center, refused to see any of his students who do not possess 40 million yuan by the time they are 40. Dong said people who had received high-level education should be ashamed if they do not live a wealthy life. The No 4 classroom building on the campus of Tsinghua University, one of China's elite colleges, took on the name of a popular clothing company, the Hong Kong-based Jeanswest Clothing in May. A golden-colored plate bearing the name of the company was affixed on to the wall of the teaching building.

    第三部分：阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
    请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选山最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
    Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use less disposable things.
    Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources (资源) and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again.
    Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life:  Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school canteen（食堂）, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.
    1. Why do many hotels provide guests with some disposable things?
    A. Let their guests be convenient during their travelling.
    B. Hope their guests use less disposable things.
    C. Wish their guests to save money.
    D. Want their guests to use more disposable things.
    2. Some Beijing hotels will no longer provide guests with ____.
    A. cheap food and drink                     B. disposable things
    C. good service                                     D. free TV programmes
    3. Which of the following is NOT true?
    A. Many disposable things are made of plastic.
    B. Throwing disposable things away is a waste of natural resources.
    C. Plastic is very bad for the environment.
    D. Plastic breaks down easily.
    4. What can we do to make our world a better place at home and school?
    A. Use shopping bags made of plastic.           
    B. Do not throw away paper cups.
    C. Use disposable plates, bowls and chopsticks.  
    D. Do not forget to reuse daily necessities（日用品）.
    5. We can tell from the story that ____.
    A. people don't like disposable things at all
    B. we can't use paper or plastic bowls at school
    C. we should use less plastic things and protect our environment
    D. hotels won't provide disposable things because they want to save money

    A
    It was the first snow of winter – an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been old enough to dress myself, but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she may still remember this one.
    I managed to get into my wool snow trousers. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots（靴子）.
    In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will all be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.
    I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do all the work. After much pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
    I announced, “They’re on the wrong feet.”
    She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.
    “They’re my brother’s boots, you know,” I said. “I hate them!”
    Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl, She pushed and pushed, less gently this time. With a greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your mittens（连指手套）?”
    I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I hid them in the toes of my boots.”
    51. According to the passage，the little girl got ___________ from her brother. 
    A. the wool snow pants and the jacket        B. the jacket and the boots
    C. the jacket and the hat                   D. the boots and the gloves
    52. What made it so hard for the teacher to help the little girl put her boots on?
    A. The gloves in the toes of the boots.       B. The slowness of the teacher. 
    C. The wrong size of the boots.            D. The unwillingness of the girl. 
    53．Why does the author say Miss Finlayson would remember that first snow day?
    A．Because the little girl was in her brother’s clothes.
    B．Because it was the most exciting day of the winter.
    C．Because the little girl played a trick on her.
    D．Because the little girl wore a pretty scarf.
    54．We can learn from the text that Miss Finlayson_________.
    A．was losing confidence in the little girl    B．gradually lost patience with the little girl
    C．because disappointed with the little girl   D．was getting bored with the little girl

    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，并在答题卡将该项涂黑。
    A
    My father and I were very close. I loved pleasing him, and he was always proud of my success. If I won a spelling contest at school, he was on top of the world. Later in life whenever I got a promotion(升职), I’d call my father right away and he’d rush out to tell all his friends. In 1970, when I was named president of the Ford Motor Company, I don’t know which of us was more excited.
    Like many native Italians, my parents were very open with their feelings and their loves not lonely at home, but also in public. Most of my friends would never hug their fathers. But I hugged and kissed my dad at every opportunity. Nothing could have felt more natural.
    He was a curious man who was always trying new things. He was the first person in Allentown to buy a motorcycle. Unfortunately, my father and his motorcycle didn’t get along too well. He fell off it so often that he got rid of it just a month after buying it. As a result, he never again trusted any vehicle with less than four wheels.
    Because of that motorcycle, I wasn’t allowed to have a bicycle when I was growing up. Whenever I wanted to ride a bike, I had to borrow one from a friend. On the other hand, my father let me drive a car as soon as I turned sixteen.
    56. What nationality was my father?
    A. American     B. Italian          C. Indian          D. Britain
    57. My father didn’t allow me to ride a bicycle because ___ .
    A. it was made out of his motorcycle.
    B. It would cost him quite a lot of money.
    C. It had less than four wheels.
    D. He was afraid that people would laugh at him.
    58. I hugged and kissed my father at every opportunity, ___ .
    A. even though I hated to do so
    B. because I was told to do so by my mother
    C. as I was named president of the Ford Motor company
    D. for I felt it quite natural to do so
    59. What does the underlined word “ vehicle” probably mean?
    A. bicycle             B. motorcycle      
    C. car                 D. tool used to carry goods or passengers
