It was difficult to coordinate (协调) our   40   ―his halting（断断续续）, mine impatient ? and because of that, we didn’t   41   much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You   42   the pace, I will try to adjust to you.”

第三部分: 阅读理解 (共两节，满分40分)

第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Whatever our differences as human beings are, we all think we're more like the rest of the animal world than we realize. It is said that we share 40 per cent of our genetic (遗传的)structure with the simple worm. 

　　But that fact has helped Sir John Sulston win the 2002 Nobel Prize for Medicine. Sir John is the founder of the Sanger Institute in Cambridge, which was set up in 1992 to get further understanding of the human genome (染色体组).

　　To help them do this, they turned to the worm. The nematode (线虫类的)worm is one of the earliest creatures on planet earth. It is less than one millimeter long, completely transparent (透明的)and spends its entire life digging holes through sand. But it still has lots to say about human life, and what can be done to make it better.

　　What the worm told Sir John and his colleagues was that each of the cells in the human body is programmed like a computer. They grow, develop and die according to a set of instructions that are coded in our genetic make- up.

Many of the diseases that humans suffer from happen when these instructions go wrong or are not obeyed. When the cell refuses to die but carries on growing instead, this leads to cancer. Heart attacks and diseases like AIDS cause more cell deaths than normal, increasing the damage they do to the body. Sir John was the first scientist to prove the existence of programmed cell death.

56. Sir John Sulston got a Nobel Prize for Medicine because he has______.

A. found that human beings are similar to the worm.

B. got the fact we share 40 per cent of our genetic structure with he simple worm.

C. found the computer which controls each of the cells in the human body

D. proved that cell death is programmed

57. People might be seriously ill if the cells in their body______.

A. grow without being instructed          B. die regularly

C. fail to follow people's instructions       D. develop in the human body

58. The underlined word “they”(in paragraph 5) refers to______.

　  A. cell deaths   B. diseases   C. instructions     D. cells

59. What is the subject discussed in the text?

　　A. The theory of programmed cell deaths.

　　B. A great scientist -- Sir John Sulston.

C. The programmed human life.

D. Dangerous diseases.

                          B

A four-year-old girl is lying in the arms of a doctor. She has just become motherless. Her pink clothes are bloodied and her eyes stare at something only she can see. She has suffered from a bombing near her home in southern Iraq.

Every day we see images like this on our televisions. We see young Iraqi children begging for food and water from American and British soldiers as they move through towns and cities towards the capital, Baghdad. We see these children following grown-ups, carrying bags of belongings almost the same size as their small bodies as they flee their homes in Baghdad.

They represent just some of the young lives that have been turned upside down by the ongoing war. And they show the terrible price being paid by Iraqi children.

“Dad, why are the Americans striking us? Are we going to be killed?” asks the son of Abu Sinar, an Iraqi engineer. Abu finds it hard to explain this war to his eight-year-old son.

He tries to comfort him by saying: “The bombs are far away from us. The Americans are fighting the soldiers. We’re going to be all right.” Even though Abu knows this isn’t always the truth.

In southern parts of the country, like Iraq’s second largest city, Basra, the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund is working to repair the damage caused by fighting. The organization is working to provide clean water and restore electrical power, said Geoffrey Keele, a UNICEF spokesman.

But little else can be done. In Baghdad, parents give their children sleeping pills to try and let them escape the sound of exploding bombs. And all the schools are closed.

“All they can do is listen to and hear the war,” said Keele. “There is suffering in Baghdad. It is clear that the bombing is affecting the mental well-being of the children.”

Despite UNICEF’s efforts, dirty water is being blamed for cholera outbreaks in southern Iraq. Diarrhea is spreading among the children, sometimes leading to death.

Nearly 50 percent of Iraq’s population is under 15 years old. And 30 percent of them already suffered before the war from malnutrition, according to international aid organizations.

Now the situation is worse, but continual fighting makes it impossible to count the number who are hungry, sick, injured or even dead.

60.The underlined word diarrhea” in the last paragraph but two must be _______

A. a kind of horrendous food        B. a kind of infectious disease

C. a new toy                        D. a piece of terrible news

61. Parents give their children sleeping pills _________.

       A. to get rid of the terrible sound of exploding bombs

       B. to help children to go to sleep because they are very tired

       C. in case their children should be frightened by the sound of exploding bombs

       D. so that their children would not have their hearing harmed

62. What is the writer’s attitude towards Iraqi people in this article?

       A. The writer loves only the children of Iraq.

B. The writer wants to know more about how many people will go hungry or even die.

       C. The writer shows sympathy for Iraqi people.

D. The writer will help Iraqi people to get over any difficulty

                               E

Before going outside in the morning, many of us check a window thermometer(温度计)for the temperature. This helps us decide what to wear. _______71__________. We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator. We want it a certain hotness in the oven. If we don’t feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.

Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.

Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide._____72_________ .

The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury(水银)inside a clear glass tube. As mercury ( or any other liquid ) becomes hot, it expands. As it gets colder, it contracts(收缩). That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube._______73________.

First . Take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap ; fill the bottle with coloured water. Tap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw(吸管) through the nail hole.

_______74________________.

Finally . Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw. Now you can see the water lever easily.

_______75_______________.

As the temperature goes down, the water will contract, and the lever in the straw will come down. Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week.

A. We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other things

in our daily lives.

B. Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in the same way

when they are heated or cooled.

C. Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will work.

D. The water will rise in the straw. As the temperature of the air goes up, the water will

expand and rise even higher.

E. They label these in different ways. On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees

and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100degrees.

F. Take wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the

straw is struck into the cap to seal把..粘住) them together.

G. People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around the

world.

      This morning I went to the shop to change the coat I bought yesterday. But the salesgirl treated me coldly. At first, she didn’t admit the coat was sold in the shop, and then she said I made it dirty. She gave various excuses to refuse my request. So I got angry and quarreled with her. Just then the manager turned up. He asked what was the matter. After I told him the whole matter he said sorry to me and criticized the salesgirl . At last, they changed another coat for me. With satisfaction I said goodbye to them and took the new coat home happily.
