第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题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
My grandfather worked as a carpenter. On this particular day, he was building some crates（木箱）for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage（孤儿院）in Brazil. On his way home, he found his glasses were gone. When he mentally replayed his earlier actions, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket and fallen into one of the crates. His new glasses were heading for Brazil!
The Great Depression was at its height, and Grandpa had six children. He had spent twenty dollars for those glasses that very morning.
“It’s not fair,” he thought as he walked home angrily. “I’ve been very faithful in giving of my time and money to my work, and now this.”
Several months later, the director of the orphanage came to the United States. He wanted to visit all the churches that supported him, so he came to my grandfather’s small church in Chicago.
He began by thanking the people for their kindness in supporting the orphanage. “But most of all, he said, ” I must thank you for the glasses you sent last year. You see, some people had just come to the orphanage, destroying everything, including my glasses. I was desperate. Even if I had the money, there was simply no way of replacing those glasses. Along with not being able to see well, I experienced headaches every day, so my coworkers and I were very worried about this. Then your crates arrived. When I removed the covers, I found a pair of glasses lying on top.”
He paused long enough to let his words sink in. Then, he continued: “When I tried on the glasses, it was as though they had been made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that!”
The people listened, happy for the miraculous glasses. But they thought it was strange because there were no glasses on their list of items to be sent overseas.
Sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his face, my grandfather, an ordinary carpenter realized his glasses had found a good place to go.
56．We know from the text that .
A．the author’s grandfather got his glasses back from the director of the orphanage
B．the author’s grandfather found that his glasses were at home at last
C．the author’s grandfather’s burden of supporting his family was very heavy
D．the author’s grandfather worked as a carpenter in a school in Chicago
57．From the text we can infer that the author’s grandfather was very after hearing what the director of the orphanage had said.
A．surprised B．disappointed C．pitiful D．proud
58．The underlined word “miraculous” （Paragraph 7） can be replaced by .
A．practical B．wonderful C．necessary D．important
59．What would be the best title for the text?
A．The Perfect Mistake B．An Ordinary Carpenter
C．A Careless Old Man D．A Pair of Glasses
B
Culture is the sum total of all the traditions, customs, belief, and way of life of a given group of human beings. In this sense, every group has a culture, however primitive, undeveloped, or uncivilized, it may seem to us.
To the professional anthropologist（人类学家）, there is no superiority of one culture over another, just as to the professional linguist（语言学家）there is no higher or lower grades among languages.
People once thought of the languages of backward groups as undeveloped form of speech, consisting largely of rough and simple sounds. While it is possible that language in general began as a series of simple sounds, it is a fact established by the study of “backward” languages that no spoken tongue answers that description today. Most languages of uncivilized groups are, by our most severe standards, extremely complex delicate pieces of machinery for the transfer of ideas. They fall behind our western languages not in their sound pattern or grammatical structures, which reflects the objects and activities known to their speakers. Even in this department, however, two things are to be noted: 1. All languages seem to possess the machinery for vocabulary expansion, either by putting together words already in existence or by borrowing them from other languages and adapting them to their own system. 2. The objects and activities requiring names and distinctions in “backward” languages, while different from ours, are often surprisingly numerous and complicated.
This study of language in turn casts a new light upon the claim of the anthropologists that all cultures are to be viewed independently and without ideas of rank or grade.
60．According to the passage, we know that .
A．only developed group has a culture
B．Only civilized group has culture
C．all groups have a culture
D．some cultures may seem to be primitive and undeveloped
61．Compared with western languages, the languages of uncivilized group are not limited in the following except .
A．vocabularies B．sound patterns
C．grammatical structures D．both A and C
62．According to the passage, all the followings are true except
A．most languages of uncivilized groups are extremely complex pieces of machinery for the transfer of ideas
B．there is not superiority（优越）of one culture over another
C．the languages seem to possess the machinery for vocabulary expansion
D．the languages of backward groups are undeveloped forms of speech, consisting of simple sounds
63．The study of language .
A．has no connection with the claim of the anthropologists
B．provides the anthropologist a lamp
C．makes people have further understanding of the claim of the anthropologists
D．makes the claim of the anthropologists brighter
C
Berlin: At nine most mornings the same scene is repeated in office buildings around the world. An employee walks into the elevator with his boss and apart from a mumbled “good morning” the junior is lost for other words. That’s an opportunity missed, says experts, who believe that such an apparently dull 30 – second conversation can be invaluable for those who want to climb the career ladder.
“Small talk can help establish a relationship upon which you can build,” says Dusseldorf communication advisor Thorsten Knobble, whose company customize curriculum vitas and job references.
As a matter of fact, the significance of small talk goes far beyond the relationship to one’s boss. People who fail the art of speaking a lot without actually saying anything find it harder to cultivate relationships in the workplace, believes Ulrich Goldschmidt, director of the senior management association VDF Essen
“Small talk is an essential part of networking,” he says.
Virtually every conversation begins and ends with small talk, according to Wolf Lasko, who has written a book on the topic and its bearing on career prospects.
Not everyone is good at small talk. It takes skill to pick the right moment and the right topic with which to start a conversation. There are plenty of topics although some are not suitable for informal chat. “Anything to do with sex is taboo,’ cautions Knobble. “Care is needed with politics, religion, money and health.” Safe topics include the holidays, the movies, or sports.
64．Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A．Small talk difficult to Start B．Small talk and safe topics
C．Small talk easy for everyone D．Small talk essential to your career
65．Small talk can do all the following except that
A．it can be an important part of the Internet
B．it can make you successful in your career
C．it can help you get along with the people you work with
D．it can be an opportunity to start your relationship with your boss
66．Which of the following is true according to the test?
A．Everyone is not skilled at small talk
B．Small talk takes place every morning at nine in office buildings.
C．All the people can start a conversation with the right topic at the right moment.
D．Some people can not do well in small talk because they don’t know the significance of small talk

The Gabon Viper is a snake that grows to two metres in length. It is black all over and as thick as a strong man’s arm. When angry, it barks like a dog and spits poison. It is one of nature’s most dangerous gifts to the world. Most people would prefer nature to keep gifts like that to itself.
Others think differently. They think that Gabon Vipers, along with other poisonous snakes, spiders and reptiles are perfect animal friends for their children. They believe that the neighbors will be envied if they keep a lion in the backyard. And they believe that no home is complete without a monkey or a parrot in a cage. That is why the trade in unusual pets is now worth over US ＄10 billion per year in spite of being illegal in most countries.
The serious effect of the trade is the damage it does to the natural environment. Hunters catch young parrots by cutting down the trees which the birds use to make nests in. Baby monkeys always stay close to their mothers. So the hunters simply shoot the mothers.
These facts are now well known, but the trade continues. It seems that the strong desire to keep pets has deep roots in the human mind. Some psychologists say that it is a way for people to get closer to nature. People keep cats and dogs as a kind of historical echo（仿效）of the days when dogs were used to control sheep and cats were kept in the home to hunt mice and rats. As technology moves society further away from the natural world, the desire to keep in touch with it grows stronger. Dogs and cats become boring. Only snakes, bears, lions and other dangerous creatures satisfy some people’s desire to get personal control over nature.
This is why there are now more tigers kept as pets in the United States than there are living naturally in the world. One result of this is an increase in attacks on humans. According to a report, there is more chance of a child being killed by a Bengal Tiger in Texas than there is in Bengal.
67．Some people keep dangerous animals in their backyards for the reason that .
A．they want to protect themselves form being killed
B．they want to show the fact that they will protect animals
C．they want to have the feeling of respect from their neighbors
D．they want to make a lot of money from the unusual animals
68．It can be concluded from this passage that .
A．keeping pets is very popular all over the world
B．keeping pets is very popular in some poor countries
C．keeping pets is against law in some rich countries
D．keeping pets costs a lot of money in some countries
69．According to some psychologists’ opinion we can find that .
A．dogs and cats used to be the most popular pets
B．without animals human beings would feel lonely
C．it is not right for human beings to control nature
D．modern people should prefer dangerous animals to dogs and cats
70．The writer of this passage seems to show us his worry that .
A．dangerous animals will kill more people over the world
B．some animals will disappear if people destroy their living places
C．modern technology will destroy the balance of nature
D．people will spend too much money on keeping pets

Making an advertisement for television often costs more than a movie. For example, a two – hour movie costs ＄6 million to make. A TV commercial can cost more than ＄6 000 a second. And that does not include cost of paying for air time. Which is more valuable, the program or the ad? In terms of money – and making money is what television is all about – the commercial is by far the more important.
Research, market testing, talent, time and money —— all come together to make us want to buy a product. No matter how bad we think a commercial is, it works. The sales of Charm went up once the ads began. TV commercials actually buy their way into our head. We, in turn, buy the product.
And the ads work because so much time and attention are given to them. Here are some rules of commercial ad making. If you want to get the low middle – class buyer, make sure the announcer has a though, manly voice. Put some people in the ad who work with their hands. If you want to sell to upper – class audience, make sure that the house, the furniture, and the hair style are the types that the group identifies（认同）with. If you want the buyer feel superior to the character selling the product, then make that person so stupid or silly that everyone will feel great about himself or herself.
We laugh at commercials. We don’t think we pay that much attention to them. But evidence shows we are kidding ourselves. The making of a commercial that costs so much money is not kid stuff. It’s big, big business. And it’s telling us what to think , what we need, and what to buy. To put simply, the TV commercial is a form of brainwashing.
71．TV commercials are more important than other programs to television because .
A．they bring in great profits（利润）
B．they require a lot of money to make
C．they are not difficult to produce
D．they attract more viewers than other programs
72．The purpose of all the efforts made in turning out TV commercials is .`
A．to persuade people to buy the product
B．to show how valuable the product is
C．to test the market value of the product
D．to make them as interesting as TV movies
73．From the rules set for making commercial ads, we can see that .
A．the lower – middle – class buyer likes to work with his hand
B．the more stupid the characters, the more buyers of the product
C．ad designers attract different people with different skills
D．an upper – class buyer is only interested in houses and furniture
74．It is believed by the writer that .
A．few people like to watch TV commercials
B．TV commercials are a good guide to buyers
C．TV commercials often make people laugh
D．people do not think highly of TV commercials
75．What does the author actually mean in the last paragraph?
A．He asks TV viewers never to laugh at the TV commercial ads.
B．Commercials are used to show the true value of a product to be sold.
C．TV commercials cost much and they do influence us in one way or another.
D．Brainwashing must be introduced to sell something on TV.

Dear Huge,
Glad to hear that eight students from your school are coming to visit Ping HuHigh School. I am writing to tell you about the plan for this cultural visit from July 27 to August 1.
Your team will be asked to stay in the homes of our classmates because it will not only cost little, but also provide an environment to share our cultures. During your stay, you will make a study of the local history, customs and visit some places of interests. You will also be invited to teach in our summer spoken English course. Finally, we will get together talking about our culture differences.
Hope the program will satisfy you. If there is something needed to be changed, just let me know.
Best wishes,
Yours,
Lihua
