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

A proud father has named his son after a computer software term .

Jon Blake Cusack , from Mocjogam , told local newspapers the US traditional way of adding “Junior” or “II” after a boy’s name was too common .

So , when his son was born last week , he decided on the name Jon Blake Cusack2.0, as if he were a software upgrade .

Mr. Cusack admitted that it took months to persuade his wife , Jamie , to accept the idea .

Mrs . Cusack said she asked several friends whether they can accept this name or not .

All the men , she said , felt the name was “cool”. However , her women friends did not think so. “I think the women end up like it ,” she said .

Mr . Cusack told the local newspaper he got the idea from a film called The Legend of 1900, in which an abandoned baby is given the name 1900 to remember the year of its birth .

“I thought that if they can do it , why can’t we ?” he said .

After little Jon version 2.0 was born , Mr. Cusack even sent a celebratory e-mail to the family and friends designed to looks as though he and his wife had created a new software .

“I wrote things like there are a lot of new features from Version 1.0 with additional features from Jamie”, he said . And he is already planning for his son’s future . “If he has a child , he could name it 3.0”, he said .

56.From the passage we know that “Jon Blake Cusack 2.0”    .

   A.shows the traditional way of America baby naming

    B.is also the name of a computer

    C.has the same meaning as “Jon Blake Cusack Junior”

    D.tells something about the hope the father places on his baby

57.What do the name of “1900”and “Jon Version 2.0” have in common ?

    A.They are both connected with computer .B.They are both untraditional .

    C.They both tell about the births .       D.They are to be equally popular .

58.Which of the following is true according to the passage ?

    A.Mrs . Cusack didn’t agree to name her son after a computer software term at the very beginning .

    B.All Mrs . Cusack’s friends support their idea .

    C.When Mr. Cusack had a second child , he would name it “Jon Version 3.0” .

    D.The name “1900” is also a computer software term .

59.What does Mr. Cusack’s “Version 1.0” refer to in the last paragraph?

   A.A computer software .             B.Mr. Cusack .

    C.Mr. Cusack and his wife .           D.Mr. Cusack’s grandson .

B

  “Tear’em apart!” “Kill the fool!” “Murder the referee ( 裁判)!”

These are common remarks one may hear at various sporting events . At the time they are made , they may seem innocent enough . But let’s not kid ourselves . They have been known to influence behavior in such a way as to lead to real bloodshed (流血) .Books have been written about the way words affect us . It has shown that words having certain meanings may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consider to be our usual humanistic behavior . I see the term “opponent” as one of those words . Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports terms .

The dictionary meaning of the term “opponent” is “enemy”; “one who opposes your interests.” Thus , when a player meets an opponent , he or she may tend to treat that opponent as an enemy . At such times , winning may control one’s mind , and every action , no matter how bad , may be considered correct . I recall an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a player’s request for a time out for a glove change because he didn’t consider them wet enough . The player rubbed his gloves across his wet T-shirt and then shouted , “Are they wet enough now?”

In the heat of battle, players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the consequences that such a move might have on anyone in their way . I have also witnessed a player reacting to his opponent’s intentional and illegal blocking by hitting him with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play . Off the court , they are good friends . Does that make any sense ? It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which is different from normal behavior .

Therefore , I believe it is time we promoted the game to the level where it belongs to the rest of the sporting world by setting an example . Replacing the term “opponent” with “associate” could be an ideal way to start .

The dictionary meaning of the term “associate” is “friend”; “companion .” Think it over ! You may soon see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to the term “associate” rather than “opponent.”

60.Which of the following statements best expresses the author’s view ?

    A.Aggressive behavior in sports can have serious consequences .

    B.The words people use can influence their behavior .

    C.Unpleasant words in sports are often used by foreign athletes .

    D.Unfair judgments by referees will lead to violence on the sports field .

61.Rough words are spoken during games because the players     .

    A.are too eager to win              

    B.are usually bad-tempered

    C.can’t afford to be polite in fierce competitions

    D.treat their friends as enemies

62.What did the handball player do when he was not allowed a time out to change his gloves ?

    A.He refused to continue the game .

    B.He angrily hit the referee with a ball .

    C.He claimed that the referee was unfair .

    D.He wet his gloves by rubbing them across his T-shirt .

63.The author hopes to have the current situation in sports improved by     .

   A.changing the attitude of players on the sports field

    B.raising the referee’s sense of responsibility

    C.calling on players to use clean language on the court

    D.regulating the relationship between players and referees

C

Like many of my generation , I have a weakness for hero worship (崇拜). At some point , however , we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them . This leads us to ask : What is a hero ?

Despite great differences in cultures , heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people .

A hero does something worth talking about . A hero has a story of adventure to tell and a lot people will listen . But a hero goes beyond more than fame .

Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves . Like high-voltage transformers (高压变压器) , heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people .

The hero lives a life worthy of imitation . Those who imitate a hero experience life with new depth , enthusiasm and meaning . A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom do they serve ? What are they willing to live and die for ? If the answer suggests they serve only their own fame , they may be famous persons but not heroes . Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous , but who would claim that their fans find life more abundant ?

Heroes are catalysts (催化剂) for change . They have a vision from the mountaintop . They have the skill to move the people . The create new possibilities . Without Gandhi , India might still be part of the British Empire . Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King , Jr. , we might still have segregated buses , restaurants and parks . It may be possible for large-scale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities , but the pace of change would be slow , the vision uncertain , and the committee meetings endless .

64.Although heroes may come from different cultures , they     .

    A.generally have certain inspiring characteristics

    B.probably share some weaknesses of ordinary people

    C.are often influenced by previous generations

    D.all unknowingly attract a large number of fans

65.According to the passage , heroes are compared to high-voltage transformers in that     .

    A.they have a vision from the mountaintop

    B.they have warm feelings and emotions

    C.they can serve as examples of noble principles

    D.they can make people feel stronger and more confident

66.Madonna and Michael Jackson are not considered heroes because     .

    A.they are popular only among certain groups of people

    B.their performances do not improve their fans morally

    C.their primary concern is their own financial interests

    D.they are not clear about the principles they should follow

67.Gandhi and Martin Luther King are typical examples of outstanding leaders who     .

    A.are good at showing their good characters

    B.can move people with their forceful speeches

    C.are capable of meeting all changes and hardships

    D.can provide an answer to the problems of their people

68.The author concludes that historical changes would     .

    A.be delayed without leaders with inspiring personal qualities

    B.not happen without heroes making the necessary sacrifices

    C.take place if there were heroes to lead the people

    D.produce leaders with attractive personalities

The idea of test –tube babies may make you either delighted at the wonders of modern medicine or annoyed while considering the moral , or legal , or technological implications (暗示) of starting life in a laboratory . But if you have ever been pregnant (怀孕) yourself , one thing is certain : You wonder what it is like to carry a test-tube baby . Are these pregnancies normal? Are the babies normal ?

The earliest answers come from Australia , where a group of medical experts at the Queen Victoria Medical Center in Melbourne have taken a look at the continent’s first nine successful in vitro pregnancies . The Australians report that the pregnancies themselves seemed to proceed (进行)according to plan , but at birth some unusual trends did show up . Seven of the nine babies turned out to be girls . Six of the nine were delivered by Caesarean Section (剖腹产手术) 。 And one baby , a twin , was born with a serious heart defect and a few days later developed life-threatening problems .

What does it all mean ? Even the doctors don’t know for sure , because the numbers are so small . The proportion of girls to boys is high , but until there are many more test-tube babies no one will know whether that’s something that just happened to be like that or something special that

happens when egg meets sperm in a test tube instead of a fallopian tube . The same thing is true of the single heart defect ; it usually shows up in only 15 out of 60000 births in that part of Australia , but the fact that it occurred in one out of nine test-tube babies does not necessarily mean that they are at special risk . One thing the doctors can explain is the high number of Caesareans . Most of the mothers were old , had long histories of fertility problems and in some areas had surgery on the fallopian tubes , all of which made them likely candidates for Caesareans anyway .

The Australian researchers report that they are quite encouraged . All the babies are now making normal progress even the twin with the birth defects .

72.What would people be most concerned about according to the author ?

    A.Whether the test-tube babies would be legally accepted by society .

    B.Whether the test-tube babies would be normal from pregnancy to birth .

    C.Whether modern medicine is advanced enough for test-tube babies’ delivery .

    D.Whether there would be always more girls than boys out of the test-tube babies .

73.What does the Latin word “in vitro” (paragraph two) most probably mean ?

    A.Normal .       B.Test-tube .      C.Virtual .        D.Fallopian tube .

74.Which of the following explanations regarding the high number of Caesarean operations is NOT true ?

    A.Some mothers have passed the best age for a natural delivery .

    B.Some mothers have physical problems with pregnancy .

    C.Some mothers volunteer to be the candidates of the Caesarean operations .

    D.Some mothers have had surgical operations on the fallopian tubes .

75.What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of test-tube babies ?

    A.Optimistic .     B.Pessimistic .    C.Delighted .      D.Annoyed .

Bao Yunlu , a senior 2 boy from the No.8 Middle School in Hefei , Anhui province , often dreams of having an elder sister . “I want her to help me with my homework , share my feelings and take care of me ,”he said .

But last week Li Honggui , head of the China Family Planning Association , sparked a hot debate when he told newspapers there would be no change to the current one-child policy . It will remain the provincial governments’ right to decide on individual cases .

“Being an only child is quite lonely . Sometimes parents can’t understand and friends don’t care.”

The one-child policy began in 1987 . Now China has nearly 100 million single child families , one third of the total . The policy has successfully slowed down Chinese population growth by 10million babies a year . But there are problems .

As the center of the family’s attention they don’t know about the hardship of life . “The one-child generation has no idea of thrift (节俭),” said Xing Yuan, professor of sociology at Shanxi University . Some of them also don’t know how to get on well with others .

Bao agreed that being an only child has had an effect on his personality . “We are less tolerant and considerate than our schoolmates who have brothers or sisters,” he said .

But others don’t agree . “I don’t feel the difference between me and my classmates who have a brother or sister . They often complain to me about quarreling with their brothers or sisters . I feel lucky to have nobody to steal my belongings,” said Bai Yijing , a senior 1 girl from the Middle School attached to Beijing Petroleum Institute . As an only child , Bai is quite happy. “I spend my leisure time and share my feelings with my friends . I am not lonely at all .

Dear Sir/ Madam ,

We are glad to know that you are going to take over and rebuild Tourists’ Hotel . The people living in Xiangyang Residential Area next to your hotel ask me to write to you about the problems we are facing . Our residential area sits next to your hotel . The traffic jams caused by cars and trucks coming into and out of the parking lot often result in inconveniences . And children also find it unsafe to go to school , which is opposite the hotel . We cannot put up with the noise from the karaoke hall any more . Dirty water from the kitchen flows into our courtyard and it smells terrible . All the people living here are looking forward to effective changes that you are going to bring about .

Best wishes ,

                                Yours truly ,

                                Li Hua
