第三节 阅读部分（40分，每题2分）
A
You've got a problem. You're going to go to university in a different town and you need somewhere to live. Or perhaps you just don't get on with your parents. What can you do? Have you ever thought of sharing a flat?
I know all about it because I've been sharing flats for the past four years, since I moved to Edinburgh to study. I must admit my first experience was a bit of a disaster. I saw an advertisement in the newspaper from a girl who had a flat and was looking for a flat mate. When I met her, she seemed really nice, and I noticed that she had lots of great CDs I wanted to hear and a big TV. However, I changed my mind about her a few days after I moved in. I came home from college one day and threw my books and jacket onto the living room sofa. My flat mate looked at them, looked at me and shouted: "I hope you're not going to leave those there!" It was then I found out that she was absolutely obsessive(着魔似的) about being tidy. It was obvious that we were incompatible（合不来）, as I'm definitely not the world's tidiest person. I moved out after the first month.
I then decided to try sharing a house with several people. I rented a room in a big old house, which I shared with four other girls (two Brazilians，a Russian, and an Italian). It was great because the house was always full of young people from all over the world and we had lots of parties. However, there were three problems. Firstly, it was almost impossible to do any work because the house was so noisy. Secondly, there was only one bathroom, and there was always someone in it, especially first thing in the morning when I was already late for class. But the biggest arguments we had were always the day the phone bill arrived!
After a year the foreign girls went home, and I decided to look for a new, preferably quieter flat! This time I decided to share with a friend, somebody I already knew well. We’ve been living here now for nearly a year and we get on really well -- except for her irritating habits of eating my yogurts(milk) and finishing the coffee! But it's great having someone else to help pay the rent, to share their dinner with you when you're too exhausted to cook, and who, unlike your parents or your partner, doesn't mind what time you get up or if you've left your bedroom in a mess. And best of all, when you've had a bad day or you've broken up with your boyfriend you know there's always someone to talk to.
56. Why did the writer move out again from the big old house?
A. Because she couldn't do any homework due to the noise.
B. Because she was always late when she lived there.
C. Because she always left the room in a mess.
D. Because the foreign girls had left.
57. What does the underlined "irritating" mean?
A. annoying B. terrible. C. lovely. D. pleasant.
58. We can know from the passage that
A. the writer is a college student
B. the writer is a foreigner
C. the writer can't get along well with others
D. the writer doesn't like to live with her friend
59. What is the intention of the author?
A. To persuade the reader not to share a flat.
B. To tell us how to get along well with the flat mate.
C. To show her opinion about sharing a flat.
D. To uncover the difficulty of renting houses
60. What is the attitude of the writer towards flat-sharing?
A. She is against it. B. She is for it.
C. She is upset with it. D. She is worried about it.
B
Space travel is definitely bad for astronauts’ bones, reducing their bone density(密度) after only a month of weightlessness, according to French research published on Friday. Laurence Vico and his fellow workers at St Etienne University called for more research into the effects of microgravity, after their study of 15 astronauts from the Russian MIR station showed bone loss continued throughout space flights.
“Bone loss was especially striking in four astronauts, ” the scientists reported in the Lancet Medical Journal. They measured the bone mineral density (BMD) of bones in the forearm and lower leg of the astronauts who had spent one to six months in space. The BMD loss was significant in the tibia(胫骨) of the lower leg, a weight-bearing bone, but barely changed in the radius(桡骨) of the forearm. “Our results indicate the need to investigate not only on different bones, but also in different areas of the same bone since not all sites of the skeleton are similarly affected by space conditions, ” they added. Without gravity the body isn’t bearing any weight so there is no need for calcium (钙) which makes bones strong, and it becomes empty into the bloodstream. The research team suggested in future scientists should try to determine if the loss of bone density was only on weight-bearing bones on longer flights, also the possible recovery after returning to Earth.
61. French scientists did their research on Russian astronauts, because _______.
A. they only cared for the Russian astronauts
B. they were not interested in their own astronauts
C. the Russian government invited them to do their research
D. the Russian astronauts worked in space for a long time
62. Scientists have found that _______.
A. the BMD loss may cause serious illness to astronauts
B. the BMD loss may cause some change in astronauts’ bodies
C. astronauts shouldn’t care about the BMD loss
D. astronauts should take some calcium before space travel
63. What cause the BMD loss to astronauts, according to this passage?
A. The food they eat in space. B. The drinks they take in space.
C. The temperature in space. D. The gravity in space.
C
Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space．The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural difference，not an economic one．Knowing your own psychological（心理的） space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices，including，for example，the number of bedrooms in the home．If you were brought up in a two-children family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms，the chances are，if you have two children or more，that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them．In America，for example，they train people to want to have their own rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies．This is very rare in the world that in many other countries the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in bed near them．
The space in the home also shows a lot about psychological space needs．Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it．Others have separate little corners where family members go to be alone， Although it is true that, psychological space needs are not decided by economic reasons，they sometimes have to be changed a little because of economic pressures．It is almost impossible，however，to completely change your psychological space needs．
64. The first sentence in paragraph 1 “Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space” mean
A.no two people need exactly the same amount of living space
B. living space requirements are not always the same
C.the world requires the same amount of living space
D.nobody needs a required amount of living space
65.Some families gather closer to each other at home than others because ．
A.they have limited living space
B.they are brought up in a large family
C.it satisfies their psychological space needs
D.the children in the family sleep in the same bed with their parents
66.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Americans are trained to live in large rooms at birth．
B.Economic situation decides one’s amount of space needs．
C. People’s psychological space is decided by their own nationalities.
D. Knowing your psychological space needs can be of value and help.
67.According to the writer of the passage，psychological space needs ．
A.are not affected by income at all
B.can hardly be changed altogether
C.can be changed if you make up your mind to do so
D.have nothing to do with cultural background
D.
Many immigrants(移民) to the United States find the decision to seek better lives for their families in America can have an unexpected and tragic consequence. Deep differences with their children develop over language and culture.
“Many immigrants arrive here without much education. Their kids soon gain language skills and also street marts(耍时髦) on how to live in America, leaving the parents at a disadvantage,” Ileana , Roses, pastor of a Methodist church group operating in Virginia, said. “Not only that but they find they cannot relate to children who quickly absorb American culture,” she said. According to the US Census Bureau(人口调查局), the number of foreign born or first generation Americans reached 55 million last year, a record one in five of the total population. A government survey of 922 immigrants in 2000 found that nearly 40 percent of those who had been in the United States for more than 15 years would still like to take English classes if they had the time. Two thirds of low income households depended on their children for translation. Psychologists(心理学家) and sociologists say parents can lose their position of authority(权威) in a family as a result and the effects of that can be far-reaching. Children exposed to American pop culture that praises youth and sexuality often rebel when their parents try to impose the conservative values they brought with them. “Americanization erodes(侵蚀) all important aspects of parenting,” said Richard Weissbourd, who teaches education at Harvard University. “I feel a part of me is dying with my children. They don’t listen to my music. I have to play it on Sunday morning when they are not around,” said an immigrant.
68.What troubles the immigrant parents most is ___________.
A. that they can’t understand the English language
B. that they lose their position of authority in their families
C. that their children have lost sense of their own national values
D. how they can master the English language as soon as possible
69. From the passage we can infer that the population of the states at present is about____.
A. 275 million B. 220 million C. 255 million D. smaller than 250 million
70. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. All the immigrants had expected the troubles they would meet before they went to the US.
B. Two thirds of immigrant families are low income households.
C. American culture shows a spirit against conservative social and cultural values.
D. American pop culture puts the immigrant families at a disadvantage.
71. Which of the following is probably the title of the report?
A. The Result of the US Census
B. The Differences Between Parents and Children in the US
C. The Troubles of the American Immigrants
D. Role Reversal(颠倒) Troubles Many Parents and Children

Ads are around us everyday and everywhere with its apparent advantage and disadvantage. We are involved into it, experiencing its goods and bads.
People who are for it believe that ads provide the information about latest products so as to increase sales and decease the cost of goods. It helps customers to choose among all the available products by explaining features, functions or service. Good ads still can please customers visually and physically even can make the public
aware of social problems.
Those who are against it accuse some companies of using ads to mislead us by giving false information. Such bad ads, tiring our thoughts and eyeballs, take customers too much time or space on TV or newspapers with the only purpose to cheat money. It’s immoral!
Ads is like a 2-side sword. Anyway, we can be smart buyer if we can distinguish between fiction and fact.
