第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

A
Do you want to watch a hot movie while chatting with your friend on the phone, or shop with your mobile while on a train? The ongoing construction of a new telecommunication service will make these things a reality, very soon.
It is reported that China is to issue its first license for the commercial use of third generation telecommunication technology (3G) early next year.
The so-called 3G technology will enable mobile phone users to enjoy high speed Internet based services. It will help increase mobility in many areas of our lives.
Nowadays, many mobile phones also allows you to send e mails or read the latest stories on the Internet, but their services are limited by their transporting speed, which is only 10 kilobytes (KB) per second. But 3G will enable you to connect to the Internet with a speed of up to 2 megabytes (M) per second.
If recent mobile technology is like riding bike on a country road, then 3G will make you fly on the information highway. For example, a mobile phone with 3G technology will enable you to download a three minute MP3 song within two minutes. But at the moment, it will take you up to an hour to do this with your mobile phone.
In the near future, we’ll expect high-speed access to the Internet, entertainment, information and electronic commerce services wherever we are—not just at our computers or television sets.
In the UK and many other European countries where 3G services have around since 2003, 3G has already become a part of modern business life. Nowadays, employees are able to spend some of their working hours at home. The new technology allows the emergency services to provide a video link with a hospital or doctor for patients who need special care.
56. What can we use mobile phone to do nowadays?
A. Download a three minute MP3 song with two minutes.
B. Call our friends through video phones.
C. Surfing the Internet.
D. Do online shopping.
57. 3G will enable mobile phones to connect to the Internet with a transporting speed faster than before.
A.10 times B.20 times C.100 times D.200 times
58. From the passage we can know that .
A. we can’t enjoy Internet based services now
B. It is impossible for us to listen to MP3 music with our current mobile phones
C. Thanks to 3G phones, many employees needn’t travel to work any more
D. Doctors can have a face to face talk with patients in emergency by using 3G mobile phones in the UK
59. The best title for the passage is .____________.
A.3G Mobile Phones B.3G Mobile Services C.3G Mobile Music D.3G Movies

John H. Johnson was born in a family in Arkansas City in 1918. His father died in an accident when John was six. He was reaching high school age, but his hometown offered no high schools for the blacks.
Fortunately he has a strong-willed and caring mother. John remembers that his mother told him many times, “Son, you can be anything you really want to be if you just believe.” She told him not to be dependent on others, including his mother. “You have to earn success,” said she, “all the people who work hard don’t succeed, but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard.”
These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education. She also knew that believing and working hard don’t mean everything. So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son to Chicago.
Chicago in 1933 was not the promised land that black southerners were looking for. John’s mother could not find work. But here John could go to school, and here he learned the power of words — as an editor of a newspaper. His wish was to publish a magazine for the blacks.
While others discouraged him, John’s mother offered him more words to live by: “Nothing beats a failure but a try.” She also let him sell her furniture to get the 500 dollars he needed to start the Negro magazine.
It’s natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful. He always keeps his mother’s words in mind. “Son, failure is not in your dictionary.” Now John H. Johnson is one of the 400 richest people in America--worth 150 million dollars.
60. Why did John’s mother decide to move to Chicago? Because _______.
A. life in Chicago would be better for the blacks than for the whites
B. John’s father died in his hometown when John was very young
C. there were no high schools for the blacks in their hometown
D.John needed education and he could go to school there
61. The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph means _______.
A. if you try, you will surely succeed
B. a try is always followed by a failure
C. only by trying can you get out of failure
D. a failure is difficult to beat, even if you try
62. We can learn from this passage that John’s mother _______.
A. didn’t depend on others or give up easily
B. thought success only came from working hard
C. thought one could be whatever one wanted to be
D. believed one would succeed without working hard
63. What can be inferred from this passage?
A. If someone wants to be successful, he should always stand firm.
B. Chicago was the promised land for the whites in 1933.
C. John’s father died in an accident during the war.
D. John’s mother was caring for him.

During the school year many parents take on the role of driver as they drive their children from one lesson to another. Understandably so. Many of us want our children to have a little taste of everything, from organized sports to music, dance and more. But we can overdo it, leaving our children feeling a little burnt out, and according to parent educator Diane Loisie, it’s their school work which suffers the most. “After school, if they’re busy in a number of sporting events, besides they need to do their homework, then the time they’ll feel sleepy is in the classroom. Your child needs free time. So if you’re filling up that after school time, then it’s during the day they’re going to be taking a break.”
Professor Claire McDermott agrees that there’s a lot to be gained from sometimes putting those scheduled lessons and activities away. “Relaxing time is important for children. It’s time just to do the things they want to do. A child can go up to their room, or they can play around. It doesn’t look like productive time; parents certainly wouldn’t be saying ‘Wow, are they ever learning things now?’ But this relaxing time gives both the body and the brain just a wonderful chance to relax after a day. It helps a child prepare for sleep, but it also helps to understand the learning that’s gone on that day.”
It’s hard to prevent signing our kids up for some activities and lessons. After all, many of us want our children to have a head start in life and the chance to join in great activities in the arts or sports is a part of that. However, Loisie feels that in the long run most children feel better with just a few key activities because it gives them an opportunity to master them. “When we get our children in too many activities because we want our children to experience everything, then what we’re doing is setting them up not to be good at one thing or gaining a skill.” So choose your children’s activities wisely. It may be one of the best things you’ve ever done for your kids… and for the family driver!
64. What is the biggest disadvantage for children to attend too many lessons after school?
A. They can get bored easily about everything.
B. They might have no time to do the homework.
C. They might not pay much attention to learning.
D. They cannot easily focus on learning during the day.
65. What should we think of children’s playing around aimlessly?
A. It is productive. B. It is helpful.
C. It is a bad habit. D. It is a waste of time.
66. Why should parents limit the activities our children attend?
A. Because children have no time.
B. Because children cannot learn many things.
C. Because children do not have enough sleep.
D. Because children cannot focus on too many activities.
67. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Don’t be children’s drivers after school.
B. Choose activities for your children wisely.
C. Make your children learn as much as possible.
D. Let children learn something from various subjects.

England fans seeking comfort from their 2006 FIFA World Cup woe（悲痛；悲哀）were shunning （避开）Portugal as a holiday destination after the national squad knocked England out of the tournament, travel agents said.
Portugal beat England on penalties after Saturday's goalless quarter-final in Gelsenkirchen, causing misery for England supporters hoping their team could become world champions.
"Last week, Portugal was our fourth most-searched destination -- but since Saturday it's fallen down to 15th place," said John Bevan from online travel agent Lastminute.com.
"We expect interest will bounce back but at the moment the loss is still a bit raw. But we hope that English holidaymakers don't boycott the Algarve for long as a result of the match."
Portugal's southernmost province of Algarve accounts for nearly half of all tourist arrivals to the country. Most visitors arrive during July and August.
British visitors accounted for 40.5 percent of all overnight stays in the province last year, according to figures from the Algarve Hotel and Tourism Businesses Association (AHETA).
The president of the association, Eliderico Viegas, said the decline in interest in the Algarve as a tourist destination was most likely due to a lack of availability of hotel rooms in the province at this time of year.
"I don't believe football would have so much influence. At any rate (无论如何；至少)they are already used to losing to Portugal just like we are used to losing to France," he said. Portugal defeated England on penalties during World Cup quarter-final match in Germany, just like they did at the same stage of Euro 2004.
Meanwhile competitor Thomas Cook said bookings surged by 35 percent on Sunday and Monday as fans looked to get away from it all following England's failure to make the World Cup semi-finals.
68. This passage mainly tells us that
A. English shun Portugal as a holiday resort.
B. many England fans want to go outside to have sightseeing.
C. Portugal isn’t a good traveling place for the English.
D. the tourism in Portugal was greatly influenced by the 2006 World Cup.
69. Some England fans plan to travel abroad because .
A. they like traveling very much
B. they hate to see the England football team
C. they don’t want to stay in England any longer
D. they want to ease physically and psychologically
70. Portugal football team defeated England football team in Germany.
A. by chance B. easily C. on penalties D. immediately after the match began
71. We can infer from what John Bevan said that .
A. more people will go to Portugal in the near future.
B. The 2006 FIFA World Cup has some negative influence on the Portugal tourism.
C. Portugal is the last place to go for travel lovers after the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
D. Portugal is the most popular place for travel lovers before the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
72. From the text we can know that
A. Algarve probably has Portugal's largest number of tourists.
B. 40.5% of the tourists in Portugal come from England last year.
C. the England foot ball team got the champion in the last FIFA World Cup.
D. The decline in interest in the Algarve as a tourist destination was surely because of a lack of availability of hotel rooms in the province at this time of year.

In2008, all attention will be focused on Beijing. As the host city, Beijing should attract all the guests by her unique image.
Above all, the Olympics are to be a green Olympics. We should plant more trees, use clean energy and deal with and recycle the polluted water. And, for a Technology Olympics, we should well equip ourselves with abundant knowledge to make Beijing a first-class modern and internationalized city. Besides, it will also be a Humanities Olympics. I will volunteer to use my foreign language skills to help bridge the language gaps for the foreign guests to have an in-depth look at Beijing.
The 2008 Olympics are sure to be a unique one.
