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
Many people hurt their backs when they try to lift heavy things from the floor. It is easy to hurt your back muscles when you pick up a heavy object. However, there is a correct way to lift things from the floor. If you pick up big or heavy objects correctly, you probably will not hurt your back.
To lift something from the floor correctly, first bend your knees and squat down. Keep your back straight. Don’t bend over from your waist; keep your back and hips and waist in a line. If you bend over, the muscles in your lower back can become hurt very easily. If you keep your back and hips straight, the muscles are stronger, because they have much more support. The other muscles can then help the lower back muscles.
As you squat down, try to get as close to the object as possible. For example, if you are going to pick up a heavy box, squat down directly in front of it, maybe you will have to spread your knees and legs. Put one knee on each side of the box. Remember at all times to keep your back straight.
Put your hands under the object that is in front of you, between your knees.
To lift the object, you should stand up slowly. Use your muscles in order to stand up. In other words, lift with your legs, not with your back.
56. To lift a heavy object mainly depends on_____ .
A. legs B. back C. knees D. hands
57. To lift a heavy box, the most important thing you should do is _____ .
A. to put your hands under the box B. to bend your knees and squat down
C. to put one knee on each side of it D. to straighten your back at all times
58. When you lift a heavy thing, which of the following is wrong？
A. Keeping your back and hips and waist in a line.
B. Putting one knee in front of the thing.
C. Standing up slowly.
D. Putting your hands under the thing between your knees.
59. Choose the correct order in which one lifts a heavy object correctly.
a. Keep your back straight. b. Bend your knees.
c. Spread your knees and legs. d. Squat down.
e. Stand up slowly.
A. a, c, b, d, e B. b, a, c, e, d C. b, d, a, c, e D. b, a, d, c, e

For more than six million American children, coming home after school means coming home to an empty house. Some deal with the situation by watching TV. Some may hide. But all of them have something in common. They spend part of each day alone. They are called latchkey children. They’re children who look after themselves while their parents work. And their bad condition has become a subject of concern.
Lynette Long was once the headmistress of an elementary school. She said, "We had a school rule against wearing jewelry. A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys fastened. I was constantly telling them to put them inside their shirts. There were so many keys. It never came to my mind what they meant. " Slowly, she learned they were house keys.
She and her husband began talking to the children who had them. They learned of the impact(影响) working couples and single parents were having on their children. Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone. One in each three latchkey children the Longs talked to reported being scared. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.
The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. It might be in a shower stall, under a bed, or in a closet. The second is TV. They’ll often play it at high volume. It’s hard to get statistics(情况) on latchkey children, the longs learned. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.
60. The main idea about “latchkey” children is that they _________.
A. are growing in numbers
B. suffer problems from being left alone
C. watch too much television during the day
D. are also found in middle-class neighborhoods
61. Which sentence in the second paragraph is the topic sentence?
A. We had a school rule against wearing jewelry.
B. A lot of kids had chains around their necks.
C. They were house keys.
D. I was constantly telling them to put them inside their shirts.
62. The main feeling these children have when they are at home by themselves is ______.
A. tiredness B. freedom C. loneliness D. fear
63. We may draw a conclusion that ________.
A. it’s difficult to find out how many latchkey children there are
B. latchkey children try to hide their feelings
C. latchkey children often watch TV with their parents
D. latchkey children enjoy having such a large amount of time alone
C
Many of like cooking but never have much time for it. Helen Fry’s new book Quick Cooking has been specially written for busy people. It has over 1,000 recipes, from the famous Spanish gazpacho to Swedish smorgasbord. The book is well written and the photographs and drawings are clear. (They are like those in the excellent little Quick Dressmaking and Quick Gardening.) The book has a strong plastic cover. It is easy to find your way around it too. And busy people, notice this, Mrs Fry tells you how much time you need in order to get each dish ready.
Quick Cooking has four parts, one for each season. This helps you to use fresh fruit and vegetable when they are cheaper—and, of course, better. There are a lot of exciting ideas from foreign countries, and most of the recipes are easy to follow. You take something simple like a chicken or some cheese, and make an unusual dish out of it. For example, there are no fewer than 40 recipes for eggs! Mrs Fry does not plan complete meals for the “quick book”. The beginners will have to find out a lot of things for himself or herself. But this ought to be difficult with such a good book. I wanted to try many of the recipes as soon as I read them. For people with little spare time, Helen Fry’s Quick Cooking is excellent value.

We have all experienced days when everything goes wrong. A day may begin well enough, but suddenly everything seems to get out of control. It seems as if a single unimportant event may cause a number of things to happen. Let us suppose that you are preparing a meal and keeping an eye on the baby at the same time.

His wife was sitting beside him holding a large cake. As she was thrown forward, the cake went right through the window and landed on the road. Seeing a cake flying through the air, a truck-driver had to stop his truck all of a sudden. The truck was carrying empty beer bottles and hundreds of them slid off the back of the truck on to the road. This led to yet another angry argument. Meanwhile, the traffic piled up behind. It took the police nearly an hour to get the traffic on the move again. In the meanwhile, the truck-driver had to sweep up hundreds of broken bottles. Only two dogs were enjoying themselves from the accident, for they were happily having what was left of the cake. It was just one of those days!

This morning my classmates and I got up early and went to visit the Great Wall.
On our way there, we saw many tall buildings on both sides of the road.
About an hour and a half’s drive brought us to the Great Wall. Seeing it we couldn’t help crying, “What a wonderful sight it is! How great!” When we walked on the Great Wall we felt proud because it is the longest wall in the world. Today it has become a place of interest not only to the Chinese people but also to the people from all over the world.
After the visit I’ve decided to study harder than ever.
