I still remember the morning. My father suddenly wake me up at about 5 and the sky was still gray. I jumped out bed surprised and extreme happy, for we were going to get a book! When we drove to the bookstore, many people were already waiting there. We waited for our turn at about 8:30. I was overjoyed when I got a book, not only because of the book themselves, but also of the love from my father. Never before had I felt such a love from him, because of my father, I believed then, had always been busy with his own work. That was “Harry Potter” that helped I feel the deep love from my parents!

第三部分 阅读理解 (共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

    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。

    Tears are nature’s way of making us feel more comfortable. When our eyes is made uncomfortable by some small pieces of pollution, or when we are cutting onions, or when we are worn out and “red-eyes” from over work and late hours, tears form in our eyes to clean and refresh them.

   Tears are also a sign of strong emotion. We cry when we are sad and we cry when we are happy.

   And tears seem to be uniquely human. We know that animals also experience emotion fear, pleasure, loneliness, but they do not shed (流) tears.

   Biologically speaking, tears are actually drops of saline fluid, which is a little bit salty, produced by a gland (腺) in the body. Because salt is an important part, tears may actually constitute(构成)the most conclusive evidence that the human animal is the end product of a long evolutionary process that began in the sea.

   And it is clear that, in addition to the emotional benefits, the shedding of tears has a specific biological function as well. Through tears, from our body we can get rid of certain chemicals which build up in response to stress and create a chemical imbalance in the body. Crying actually makes us feel better by correcting that imbalance and making us feel good again. And thus the emotional and the biological functions of tears merge (合并) into one and make us even more “human” than we would otherwise be.

56. According to the passage, human beings may have originated(起源)in __________.

   A. the sea           B. the salt          C. chemicals          D. animals

57. Which of the following is NOT a function of tears?

   A. Biological.        B. Emotional.       C. Political.          D. Chemical.

58. According to the article, which of the following is unique to humans?

   A. The feeling of loneliness.              B. The state of feeling good.

   C. The ability to shed tears.               D. The feeling of fear.

59. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?

   A. Tears are a sign of strong emotion.

   B. Tears are always making us feel more comfortable.

   C. Tears are uniquely human.

   D. Tears have certain biological function.

I've cheated in school when I thought that I could get away with it. I'm not proud of it and I don't usually feel very good about myself afterward, but sometimes it's the only way possible to survive in a pressure cooker. My parents are really set on my getting good grades. They study my report card the same way they examine the newspaper's stock market page. And they make me feel that I've got to live up to their expectations.

But often each teacher acts as if his is the only subject we have. They think nothing of piling on our homework or giving surprise quizzes. Sometimes we have to take two or three tests in different subjects on the same day. I'd like to see a lot of adults I know preparing for that.

When the pressure becomes too high, some kids may resort to(诉诸于) cheating. If you have three or four subjects to study for, you're not going to be able to devote enough time to each subject in order to be well prepared for each class. Besides, it may be the only way left to live up to your parents' expectations and compete with the top students in the class.

Everybody knows that if you cheat, it's important not to get caught. Few things can cause more of chaos. Once, my elder brother got caught cheating on a math final. My parents acted as though he'd committed a federal crime. The assistant principal called them to school, but although the incident caused several conferences, I don't think that anybody ever really understood what my brother was going through. We're just supposed to perform outstandingly as well as always act honestly, but how many adults can actually live up to the standards they set for us?

My father has gotten countless traffic tickets for parking in no parking zones or for not coming to a full stop at stop signs. And you're always hearing about people who don't file their income tax honestly. How about all the corruption in government? Successful adults often accept dishonesty in order to achieve their business goals. Are kids the only ones who are supposed to be perfect?

Most of my friends have cheated on tests in school at one time or another. The kids who never cheat are usually either afraid of getting caught or just don't know how to do it safely. Nobody wants to cheat. But if it's a choice of being honest or of getting a grade, most kids will try for the A. That may sound wrong, but we didn't make the rules, we're just trying to get by.

1. What is the best title of this passage?

      A. No one wants to cheat!                               B. Everyone likes to cheat!

      C. No one can survive a cheat!                        D. Everyone can fight a cheat!

2. The author owes children’s cheat to the following EXCEPT ___________.

      A. parents                 B. teachers                C. children                D. examinations

3. In the fifth paragraph, the author mainly wants to say __________.

      A. his father always cheats in his life

      B. kids are always supposed to be perfect

      C. all the adults can not live up to the standards they set for children

      D. children shouldn’t learn from successful adults

4. Which of the following is true according to this passage?

      A. The author thinks it is children’s right to cheat in school.

      B. Most of the author’s friends like cheating on tests in school.

      C. The author shows a positive attitude towards a surprise quiz in school.

      D. The author thinks it wrong to cheat in school.

In the sea, there are many islands. In its warm waters there are some little ones. We call them "Coral Islands".

    A coral island is very nice to look at. It looks like a ring of land with trees, grass and flowers on it.

One part of the ring is open to the water. There is a little round lake inside the island. If you look into this lake, you'll see beautiful coral. You may think they are flowers. If you look at a piece of coral, you'll see thousands of little holes in it. In each of those holes, a very small sea animal has lived. These sea animals make the coral.

    They began to build under the water. Year after year, the coral grew higher and higher. At last it grew out of the water. Then the sea brought to it small trees and other things. After some years, these things changed into earth. Sometimes the wind brought seeds to the earth. Sometimes birds flew over it and brought seeds to the island. The little seeds grew. In a few years, there were plants all over the islands. In a few more years there were trees growing there.
