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。
A
One moment, Jerry Le Doux was standing in a small pool of water outside
his home in the US state of Louisiana. Then suddenly
he experienced a blinding white light. Half an hour later he woke up. He had
been thrown five meters away from where he stood. There was a strong taste of
acid in his mouth. Several teeth had shattered. His boots had melted on his
feet and the radio he was carrying had exploded.
Jerry Le Doux had been struck by lightning. He is not alone. According
to estimates(估算) by survivor’s groups, around 1,000 Americans alone
are struck every year. And every year, an average of 67 those struck are
immediately killed.
Four out of five of the victims are men. Men are more likely to work outdoors.
They are also more likely to play golf. Walking around in a thunderstorm with a
metal club is an excellent way of attracting lightning. So is standing under a
tree to shelter from a storm. So is walking by the ocean or any other large
body of water.
Sometimes, victims of a lightning strike have a hard job convincing
others that they have been struck. In an ordinary electric shock, the
electricity travels straight through the body. Lightning flows over and around
the people it strikes. Sometimes it blows all the victim’s clothes off without
leaving a mark on his or her skin.
56. When Jerry Le Doux was struck by lightning,
he was _____.
A.
pumping water
B. he was standing in a pool
C.
riding on the road
D. playing golf with his friends
57. By mentioning Jerry Le Doux, the author
wants to show ______ .
A.
he is lucky
B. many people have been struck by lightning
C. he needs help
D. lightning happens more frequently in America
58. The third paragraph mainly shows_____.
A.
men are the main victims
B. men are too careless while working
C.
why men are easy to get caught by lightning
D.
what should people do in time of lightning
59. The words “convincing others” mean ______
A.
making others believe B.
getting along with others
C.
protecting others
D. saving others
B
Popular breakfast foods in the United States, as in many other
countries around the world, include coffee, milk, juice, eggs, and bread. Some
other breakfast items served in the United States are thought by many
to be traditionally American. However, they actually come from other cultures.
A very popular breakfast food in America
is the pancake―a thin, flat cake made out of flour and often served with syrup(糖浆). The idea of the pancake is very old. In fact,
pancakes were made long ago in ancient China.
Bagels, a round thick bread with a hole
in the middle, are also popular for breakfast in America. Polish people in the late
1600s came up with the idea for the first bagels and this new kind of bread
soon took off across Eastern Europe.
In the late 1800s, thousands of Jews from
Eastern Europe traveled to the United
States and brought the recipe for bagels
with them. Today, New York
bagels are said to be the best in the world. Many people have them with cream
cheese for breakfast on the go.
Doughnuts(usually spelled “donut” in the United States)came from France. They were served to
American soldiers in France
during World War I. After the war, American soldiers asked cooks in the United States
to make doughnuts for them. Now, served with coffee, they are a very popular
breakfast food across the United
States.
60. The oldest breakfast food in the passage
is______.
A. the pancake B. the bagel
C. the doughnut D. not mentioned
in the passage
61. Which sentence is true for both bagels and
donuts?
A.They
both came from Europe B. They are both sweet
C. They are both easy to make D. People in New York make them best
62. Who brought bagels to America?
A. Polish people. B. Chinese people
C. Jewish people. D. American soldiers.
63. Who served donuts to American soldiers
during World War I?
A. French people.
B. Other
American soldiers.
C. Jewish people. D. Cooks from the United States.
C
Traveling in Viet Nam
was like visiting a mysterious neighbour. You have lived next door to each
other for years but knew very little about what happened on the other side of
the fence.
I traveled there last August. A
simple 180-kilometre trip from a Chinese border town to Hanoi,
capital of Viet Nam,
took an adventurous eight hours. That’s because the country still doesn’t have
a modern expressway system. The major passage going through the peninsula(半岛) is only a two-way
road. Also, many areas are mountainous.
Vietnamese drivers are impatient
and fearless. They compete with each other at full speed no matter how scared
the passengers feel. When the bus shook us violently many times, the driver
made a joke to make us feel better. “See, this is just a gift Vietnamese people
give you, a free massage service.”
It was midnight when I reached
the hotel. Turning on the television, I was surprised by something: All the
characters in the TV dramas spoke in the same voice. At present, modern Korean
dramas and historical Chinese dramas are popular with the Vietnamese. But it
seemed they didn’t have enough money to dub(配音)all these programmes. So, the same boring woman
would appear behind every drama to speak for the roles.
The next morning when I opened
the window, I found myself in a huge “garden”. The buildings in the streets
were dressed in all kinds of colors you can imagine. Vietnamese residents are
allowed to paint their houses as they like. Each one is different and the
colors bring the city alive.
64. Before the author traveled in Viet Nam,
he______.
A. had
known a lot about the neighboring country.
B. knew little about the
neighboring country.
C. had thought he would have a chance to
visit the country.
D. thought the country was very
rich
65. On the way to Hanoi,
the author______.
A. was struck
by the beautiful scenery in Viet
Nam B. was regretful for this travel
C. was in high spirits D.
was not pleased with Vietnamese drivers
66.All the characters in the TV dramas spoke in
the same voice because______.
A.they all had
the same accent B.few
people show interest in dubbing
C. the persons who dub may be looked down upon D. they had no ability to afford so much
money
67.Which of the following can be used to
describe the buildings in Hanoi?
A. Very common B. More traditional
C. Very colorful
D. Rather dull
D
Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a
whole year falls in only a few weeks’ time. Ten inches of rain may be enough
for many plants to survive(存活)if the rain is spread throughout the year. If
it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants
may die and a desert may form.
Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind
and weather wear them down. Sand dunes(沙丘) are formed as
winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the
years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are
only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.
There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the
deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs(悬崖)
and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more
than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand,
rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the
desert mountains are always changing -- very, very slowly -- as these forces of
nature continue to work on the rock.
Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants,
animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of
the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air
begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to
rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.
68.Many plants may survive
in deserts when _____.
A. the
rain is spread out in a year B. the rain falls only
in a few weeks
C. there
is little rain in a year D.
it is dry all the year round
69.Sand dunes are formed when _____.
A. sand
piles up gradually
B. there is plenty of rain in a year.
C. the
sea has dried up over the years D. pieces of rock get smaller
70.The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably
means that in a desert there is _____.
A. too much sand
B. more sand than before
C. nothing except sand D. something else
besides sand
71.It can be learned from the text that in a
desert _____.
A. there is no rainfall throughout the year
B. life exists in rough conditions
C. all sand dunes are a few feet high
D. rocks are worn away only by wind and heat
E
My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died.
As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him, but the more I tried,
the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year,
it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six failing
grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the
school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees
and pleaded for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at
the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced
himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.”
Before he could say another word, I choked up and all my disappointment and
sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my
son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go
back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands.” For a moment
there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank
you for your time,” and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his
grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a
parent ? teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished
at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “ Mum,
remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I nodded. “ That was me. I
thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how
much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”
72.By saying “Karl became withdrawn”, the author
means that the boy changed entirely and _____.
A. preferred to stay alone at home B. lost interest in
his studies
C. refused to talk to others
D. began to dislike his mother
73.There was silence on the other end of the
line because _____
A. the speaker was too moved to
say anything to the mother
B. the speaker waited for the
mother to finish speaking
C. the speaker didn’t want the mother to recognize his
voice
D. the speaker was unable to interrupt the mother
74.The sentence “… he even made the honor roll”
means that “_____”.
A. he was even on the list to be
praised at the parent―teacher meeting
B. he was even on the list of
students who made progress in grades
C. he was even on the list of
students who had turned themselves around
D. he was even on the list of the
best students at school
75.What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Children in single―parent families often have mental
problems
B. Mother’s love plays an important role in teenagers’ life
C. Being understood by parents is very important to
teenagers
D. School education doesn’t work without full support from
parents

书面表达范文:
Dear Mr. Brown,
I’m now safely back
home. Thank you very much for all the kindness I got from you during my stay.
Hope everything is fine with you there..
Now I wonder whether I
could ask you a favor. When I came back, I suddenly realized that I had left my
English dictionary behind at your place. It is a precious gift from my American
teacher. Would you please be so kind as to send it to me?
I will pay for the
postage. The dictionary must be on the bookshelf in my bedroom. It is the one
with a red cover.
Thank and all the best
Yours,
Li Hua
