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，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项
A
Is it possible to persuade mankind to live without war? War is an ancient practice which has existed for at least six thousand years. It was always bad and usually foolish, but in the past, the human race managed to live with it. Modern cleverness has changed this. Either Man will end the existence of war, or war will end the existence of Man. For the present, it is nuclear weapons(核武器) that cause the most serious danger, but bacteriological or chemical weapons may, before long, offer an even greater threat. If we succeeded in ending the existence of nuclear weapons, our work will not be done. It will never be done until we have succeeded in ending war. To do this, we need to persuade mankind to look upon international problems in a new way not as contests of force, in which the victory goes to the side which is most skilful in killing people, but by settling in accordance with agreed rules of law. It is not easy to change very old mental habits, but this is what must be attempted.
There are those who say that the acceptance of this or that ideology(意识形态) would prevent war. I believe this to be a big mistake. All ideologies are based upon dogmatic statements(强词夺理) which are, at best, doubtful, and at worst, totally false. Their supporters believe in them so deeply that they are willing to go to war in support of them.
The movement of world opinion during the past few years has been very largely such as we can welcome. It has become a commonplace that nuclear war must be avoided. Of course very difficult problems remain in the world, but the spirit in which they are coming nearer to is a better one than it was some years ago. It has begun to be thought, even by the powerful men who decide whether we shall live or die, that negotiations should reach agreements even if both sides do not find these agreements wholly satisfactory. It has begun to be understood that the important struggle nowadays is not between different countries but between Man and the atom bomb.
56．This passage implies that war is now ________.
A．worse than in the past B．as bad as in the past
C．not so dangerous as in the past D．as necessary in the past
57．In the sentence “To do this, we need to persuade mankind…” (Paragraph 1), “this” refers to ___________.
A．to end the existence of war B．to improve weapons
C．to solve international problems D．to live a peaceful life
58．From Paragraph 2 we learn that the writer of the passage _________.
A．is a supporter of some modern ideologies
B．does not think that the acceptance of any ideologies could prevent war
C．believes that the acception of some ideologies could prevent war
D．does not doubt the truth of any ideologies
59．According to the writer, ___________.
A．war is the only way to solve international arguments
B．war will be less dangerous because of the improvement of weapons
C．it is impossible for people to live without war
D．war must be ended if Man wants to survive
60．The last paragraph suggests that ____________.
A．international agreements can be reached more easily now
B．Man begins to realize the danger of nuclear war
C．nuclear war will surely not take place
D．world opinion welcomes nuclear war

The tea gardens in Sri Lanka are actually large estates(种植园). The best tea usually comes from plants grown on high grounds, the cool hilltops with rows and rows of tea plants. The plants are about one metre apart. The plant is often pruned so that it remains only 60 to 90 centimetres high. Pruning is important because it encourages the growth of tender shoots, or young leaves. It is from these shoots that the best tea is got.
Practically all the tea pickers are women. The estates prefer to employ women pickers because they are more careful. Their thin fingers can easily remove the twin leaves and new shoots from the plant, which are the parts used for processing(加工) tea. The pickers carry large baskets into which they throw their pickings. A skilled worker can harvest between 9 to 14 kilogrammes of tea leaves a day. Usually new shoots can be picked from the plants about every ten or fifteen days.
Processing tea shoots into the familiar dry tea leaves requires great care and skill .There are various methods of processing depending on the type of tea required .For black tea ,the young green leaves are first spread out on shelves to dry. This process removes much of its water and the leaves become soft. After this ,the leaves are passed through heavy rollers .This operation will press the leaves for juices which give the tea both its colour and taste .Then the leaves are spread out on floors and left to ferment （发酵）under wet conditions. Fermentation develops the rich taste of black tea .The fermented leaves are then dried with a hot-air blower until they become rolled-up black leaves .The final step is to sort and grade them before the black tea is ready for sale to countries all over the world.
61．In the first paragraph ,the word “pruning” means .
A．regular cutting of the plants B．frequent watering
C．regular use of chemicals D．growing the plants high in the mountain
62．One of the reasons why women are employed to do the picking is that .
A．they work harder than men do in the picking
B．they can throw their pickings more easily into the baskets
C．their fingers fit them better for the job.
D．they can more easily find the twin leaves.
63．How many processing steps are mentioned in the last paragraph?
A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. D．Six.
64．What is the writer’s purpose in writing the passage?
A．To introduce various methods of tea processing.
B．To persuade readers to buy tea from Sri Lanka.
C．To tell a story that had happened in the tea gardens.
D．To inform readers of tea growing ,picking and processing.

Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measures on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful（有压力的）conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.
Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting（转移注意力）us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support—money aid, material resources, and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.
65. Interpersonal relationships are important because they can .
A. make people live more easily B. smooth away daily problems
C. get people to find life changes D. cure types of illnesses
66. The researches show that people's physical and mental health ..
A. lies in the social medical care systems which support them
B. has much to do with the amount of support they get from others
C. depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles
D. is related to their courage for dealing with major life changes
67. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work in spare time is an example of .
A. instrumental support B. informational support
C. social companionship D. the strengthening of self-respect
68.What's the subject discussed in the text?
A.. Kinds of social support B.. Interpersonal relationships
C. Ways to deal with stress. D. Effects of stressful condition.

"My kids really understand solar and earth-heat energy," says a second-grade teacher in Saugus, California. "Some of them are building solar collectors for their energy course. ” These young scientists are part of City Building Educational Program (CBEP), a particular program for kindergarten through twelfth grade that uses the stages of city planning to teach basic reading, writing and math skills, and more.
The children don't just plan any city. They map and analyze the housing, energy, and transportation requirements of their own district and foretell its needs in 100 years. With the aid of an architect who visits the classroom once a week, they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations. " Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom," says the teacher who developed this program. "They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame, because there are no wrong answers in a future context. In fact, as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program, an elected ‘ official’ and ‘ planning group’ make all the design decisions for the model city, and the teacher steps back and becomes an adviser. "
CBEP is a set of activities, games and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving: observing, analyzing, working out possible answers, and judging them based on the children's own standards.
72. The Program is designed _____.
A. to help young architects know more about designing B. to train young scientists for city planning
C. to develop children's problem-solving abilities D. to direct kids to build solar collectors
73. An architect pays a weekly visit to the classroom ______.
A. to find out kids' creative ideas B. to discuss with the teacher
C. to give children lectures D. to help kids with their program
74. Who is the designer of the program?
A. An official. B. An architect. C. A teacher. D. A scientist.
75. The children feel free in the program because______.
A. they can design future buildings themselves B. they have new ideas and rich imagination
C. they are given enough time to design models D. they need not worry about making mistakes

第二节 书面表达
Dear Mr. Brown,
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we’ve had about whether music should be played during the break. Opinions are divided on the question
Most of us agree that music should be played. As we know, music can produce a lively and happy atmosphere. Besides, music provides us with relaxation after hard study, which reduces the tiredness. Listening to music also makes us feel happy.
On the other hand, some students have the opposite view. They don't think they can get the expected results by listening to music, as the break between classes is short. What's needed during the break is peace instead of the noise produced by the music.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
