III. 阅读理解 （30%）
A
I fell in love with England because it was quaint (古雅) ― all those little houses, looking terribly old-fashioned
but nice, like dolls’ houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved
London. I’ve
slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly
town now.
Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play,
and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the
gentlemanly attitudes and good manners ― people shut doors heavily in your face
and politeness is disappearing.
I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You’re forced
to live indoors. In Paris
I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it
usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a
woman. The cafés are not terribly nice.
As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb (a lot of money) on taxis
because I will not take public transport after 10 pm. I used to use it, but now I’m afraid.
The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England.
My family is well united and that’s typically French. In Middlesex I had a
neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him
to France
for Christmas once because he was always alone.
41.
The writer doesn’t like London
because she _________.
A. is not used to the life there now
B. has lived there for seventeen years
C. prefers to live in an old-fashioned house
D. has to be polite to everyone she meets there
42. Where do people usually meet their friends in
England?
A. In a café. B. In a
restaurant. C.
In a nightclub. D.
In a pub.
43. The underlined part “it” (in paragraph. 4)
refers to_________.
A. a taxi B.
the money C.
a bomb
D. public
transport
B
About one-third of a typical
home’s heat loss occurs through the doors and windows. Energy-efficient doors
are insulated（隔热的） and seal tightly to prevent air
from leaking through or around them. If your doors are in good shape and you
don’t want to replace them, make sure they seal tightly and have door sweeps at
the bottom to prevent air leaks. Installing insulated storm doors provides an
additional barrier to leaking air. Most homes have many more windows than
doors. Replacing older windows with new energy-efficient ones can reduce air
leaks and utility bills. The best windows shut tightly and are constructed of
two or more pieces of glass separated by a gas that does not conduct heat well.
If you cannot replace older windows, there are several things you can do to
make them more energy efficient. First, caulk(填．．．以防漏) any cracks around the windows and make sure they seal tightly. Add
storm windows or sheets of clear plastic to the outside to create additional
air barriers. You can also hang insulated window curtain on the inside―during
the winter, open them on sunny days and close them at night. During the summer,
close them during the day to keep out the sun.
44.If
you don’t want to replace the door, you can________.
A. seal the door tightly
B. make door sweeps at the bottom
C. do nothing.
D. Both A and B
45.If
you don’t want to replace the windows, you can do except_________.
A. seal the windows cracks
tightly.
B. installing storm window or
sheets of clear plastic outside
C. hang insulated window curtain
inside
D. make windows sweeps at the
bottom
46.When
in the summer, we should do_________.
A. open the windows on days and
close them at night
B. seal the door tightly
C. close the windows on days and
open them at night
D. seal the windows cracks
tightly
47.What
is the purpose of writing this text?
A. To tell people how to save
energy.
B. Advertise the Energy-efficient
doors and windows.
C. To tell people that they
should reduce the number of windows.
D. Energy-efficient doors and
windows are useful to decrease heat loss.

The bumpy（凹凸不平的）structure of walnuts is similar to the brain．Some Chinese believe eating walnuts will make them
smarter because of that．By the same logic，they believe eating pig brains will increase their intelligence．This kind of food myth is true to
Americans，too. Some Americans
regularly eat uncooked eggs to keep their minds sharp．
Most
doctors don’t recommend eating either raw eggs or animal brains．Then, what food is good for your
brain? Scientists have found a relationship between diet and a healthy brain．It’s becoming pretty clear that the
right food can increase brain power―help you pay attention, keep you motivated，improve memory, and defuse stress．Perhaps even prevent brain aging．
The health
of your brain depends not only on how much（or little）fat you eat but on what kind it is．Intellectual performance requires the specific type of fat found
most commonly in certain fish．Besides oily fish，you should introduce lots of dark green leafy vegetables and
colorful fruits into your diet．Most people lack the special vitamins that these brain foods provide．
But you won’t do well on your test just because you ate fish the
night before. You must eat brain foods regularly．
48．Which of the following is closest
in meaning to the underlined word “defuse” in Para.
2?
A．Confuse.
B．Avoid. C．Lessen. D．Feel.
49．Which of the
following is needed if people want to strengthen their brain power?
A．Brain-shaped foods B．Uncooked eggs．
C．Fat of any kind D．Certain vegetables．
50．Which of the
following statements can be supported by the passage?
A．The author must be good at cooking.
B．Good marks only depend on regular brain foods.
C．Neither walnuts nor animal brains really help increase mental power.
D．Americans believe eating uncooked eggs makes them more clever than
having
Walnuts.
51．The author
reminds the readers__________________________．
A．of the importance of
tests B．to have brain food regularly
C．never to eat fish before tests D．of the danger in eating unhealthy
food
D
We are all
interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and
examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of
equality, want only to destroy it.
Any society which is interested in
equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its
pupils. The standards may be changed―no examination is perfect―but to have no
tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There
are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in
examinations or in any controls in school or on teachers. This would mean that
everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the
efficiency, the values and the purpose of each teacher.
Without examinations,
employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from
families known to them―a form of favouritism
will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill―respected
school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while
the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a
well―respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would
disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor
family would be a prisoner of his or her school’s reputation, unable to compete
for employment with the child from the favoured school.
The opponents of the examination
system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show
differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no
special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should
be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should
be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who
themselves are probably selected by some computer.
52．The word “favouritism” in paragraph 3 is used
to describe the phenomenon that________.
A．bright children also need certificates to get
satisfying jobs.
B．children from well―respected schools tend to
have good jobs
C．poor children with certificates are favoured
in job markets
D．children attending ordinary
schools achieve great success
53．What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the
author?
A．Schools for bright children would
lose their reputation.
B．There would be more opportunities
and excellence.
C．Children from poor families would
be able to change their schools.
D．Children’s job opportunity would be affected
by their school reputation.
54．The opponents of the examination system will agree that _________.
A．jobs should not be assigned by
systematic selection
B．computers should be selected to
take over many jobs
C．special classes are necessary to
keep the school standards
D．schools with academic subjects should be done
away with
55．The passage mainly focuses on ___________.
A．schools and certificates
B．examination and equality
C．opportunity and employment D．standards and reputation

Don’t Leave Kids
Behind
According to the latest statistics, there are more than 25 million
rural children throughout the country, who are left at home with relatives
while their parents work in urban areas.
It is said that children who don’t say with their parents
tend to develop unhealthy tendencies both in their behavior and personality.
The lack of care from their parents will do great harm to the growth of the
children: they often feel lonely or unhappy and have difficulty communicating
with others; they usually perform badly in their studies and most of them have
psychological problems; they cannot acquire the abilities they should obtain in
their childhood and are easy to get hurt when in danger.
In my opinion, parental care is important to ensure a
child’s healthy development, so something must be done to help the children left
behind in rural areas.
