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,掌握其大意,然后从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
If you have been joining in chat room conversations, or trading email with web pals(网友), you have become one of the millions who write in a peculiarly short form of English.
And you've got a sense of humor about short forms like SOHF(= sense of humor failure) to describe Internet newcomers who don't understand you.
Across the globe, every night teenagers and their elders are talking on-line, many of them all talking at the same time.
It's fast: try talking to six people at once. It's brief: three or four words per exchange. It takes wit, concentration and quick fingers.
And it requires tremendous linguistic economy (语言省略), There's neither time nor space for explanations. Why consume precious key-strokes (键盘敲击) telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(= be right back) will do?
Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (= pardon me for jumping in).
Interested in whom you are talking to? Type A/S/L, the nearly universal request to know your pal's age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a response from your pal.
If something makes you laugh, say you are OTF (= on the floor) , or LOL (= laughing out loud), or combine the two into ROTFL (=rolling on the floor laughing).
And when it is time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG(= got to go) or TTYL (= talk to you later).
People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing emotion, as it takes more time to hold down the "shift" key and capitals. Punctuation (标点) is gone, too.
56. Many people talk on the Internet______ .
A. by sending short emails B. by using a particular short form of English
C. by using peculiar English words and expressions D. in a funny way
57. In order to talk to several people at the same time on the Internet______.
A. you have to speak fast and fluently
B. you should speak with wit and humor
C. you have to express your ideas in a brief way
D. one should pay much attention to the accuracy(准确)of words
58. If you get 17/F/NY as an answer to your A/S/L, it means_____
A. the person on the other end is 17 from New York and he is fine
B. you are talking to a girl who is 17 and lives in New York
C. you are talking to 17 girls who are from New York
D. the person who you are talking to is a 17-foot tall New York girl
59. To save time on the Internet, _____.
A. some people leave their letters in the dustbin
B. some people never use "shift” in their writing
C. many people leave the capital and punctuation
D. people seldom use capital letters or punctuation
B
T-shirts out; uniforms in
School uniforms are becoming more and more popular across the USA. That's no surprise, because they offer many benefits. They immediately end the powerful social sorting and labeling (标记) that come from clothing. If all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the "wrong" clothes.
Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule-wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers; school uniforms tear those barriers down.
As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purpose and duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform, he or she becomes, for a time, the symbol (象征) of law and order. The uniform means to the wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets, People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.
Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their children's "creativity". First, as noted above, the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily express their individuality (个性 ).They just copy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While they're in school, their job is to master reading, writing, and maths; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.
60. In Paragraph 1, the word "benefits" probablymeans _____.
A. tasks B. messages C. differences D. advantages
61. From the passage we learn that uniforms in general ____.
A. prevent the wearers from being laughed at
B. help the wearers keep their duties in mind
C. are seen as a symbol of power
D. help to create social barriers
62. Some people are against school uniforms because _____.
A. they fail to realize that students have accepted the uniforms
B. they believe that uniforms will make students less creative
C. they don't agree that uniforms can remove social barriers
D. they think that school uniforms are too popular
63. The author would probably agree that ______.
A. it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or not
B. students' individuality may not come from school education
C. students' creativity is related to the clothes they choose
D. school uniforms help to create equality among students
C
Books are for reading, but man must bring to their reading a desire to learn and a power of absorbing. Reading should be active, not passive.
When students first go to a library, they may be at a loss as to what to read of all the different subjects. Well, Bacon tells you to "Look at weak places in your armour (盔甲)”, and shows you how to fill up the blanks in your knowledge.
On the other hand. it is no good just trying to fill your mind with knowledge. Knowledge in itself is often useless. A mind filled with too much knowledge is like a room too full of furniture; a man cannot walk about freely in it, and look out of the windows. It is much better to collect a few subjects which interest you and to deal lightly with the others than to march heavily through the whole range (范围) of learning, like a silly tourist going through a museum and not missing a single object. If you try to master every subject you may become very wise, but you will be very lonely and you will probably lose all your friends. So you must learn to pick and choose, and you must also learn to look here and there in a library like a camel eating grass on the grassland. If you watch it eating, you will see that although he is supposed to be one of the most stupid animals in the world , he was at least one of the qualities of the cultured (有修养的) man, the power to pick and choose. A student looking for mental food in a library should take the camel as his model.
64. The writer thinks that one must ______.
A. read as many books as he can B. try to read books on all the different subjects
C. only read books on subjects that interest him D. read and absorb a lot
65. A cultured man is similar to a camel because ______.
A. neither of them is interested in knowledge
B. the man reads books as much as a camel eats grass
C. neither of them can be considered wise
D. both of them have the ability to select
66. The term "mental food" in the last paragraph refers to_____.
A. books B. grassland C. brain D. subjects
67. In the second paragraph the writer mainly discusses _____.
A. how to compare furniture with books B. how to select reading materials
C. how to avoid missing anything interesting in the library
D. why books must be absorbed
D
While income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face. Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one. This phenomenon (现象) is commonly known as “Empty Nest Syndrome" (空巢综合症 ).
In order to seek better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home. Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that most of these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves.
The situation on which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as "distant parent phenomenon”, which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome".
68. According to the passage, the loneliness of aged parents is mainly caused by_____.
A. their earlier experience of feeling lonely
B. the unfavorable living conditions in their native countries
C. the common worry about their income
D. the geographical distance between parents and children
69. Many young people have gone abroad, leaving their aged parents behind, to _____.
A. live in the countries with more money
B. seek a better place for their aged parents
C. continue their studies abroad
D. realize their dreams in foreign countries
70. If young people go abroad, ______.
A. they do not hold to the value of duty at all
B. they can give some help to their parents back home
C. they cannot do what they should for their parents
D. they believe what they actually do is right
71. From the last paragraph, we can infer that _____.
A. the situations in the developed and developing countries are different
B. "Empty Nest Syndrome" has arrived unexpectedly in our society
C. children will become independent as soon as they go abroad
D. the aged parents are not fully prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome"
E
When a rather dirty, poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg for a few coins, do you hurry on, not knowing what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly hand over some money? What should our attitude to beggars be? There can be no question that the world is full of terribly sad stories. It must be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from. It seems cruel not to give some money to beggars.
Certainly, most of the world's great religions(宗教) order us to be open-hearted and share what we have with those less fortunate than ourselves. But has the world changed? Maybe what was morally(道德方面) right in the old days, when one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help, is no longer the best idea. Quite a few people will not give to beggars. Let us look at their arguments.
First, some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable and actually make a good living from begging. Giving to beggars only encourages this sort of evil (罪行). Secondly, there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer, wine or drugs. Thirdly, there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging. One might be poor, but that is no reason for losing one's sense of pride and self-dependence.
Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be dealt with by the government rather than ordinary people. Some people think beggars should go to the local government department and receive help.
It is hard to come to any final conclusion: there are various cases and we must deal with them differently. A few coins can save a life in some situations, and even if the money is wasted, that does not take away the moral goodness of the giver.
72. What is mainly discussed in the passage?
A. Moral deeds of people B. Religious activities of the church.
C. Moral goodness of the giver. D. Arguments on giving to beggars.
73. What can we infer from the sentence "But has the world changed?" in the second paragraph?
A. People no longer know who suffers misfortune in the village.
B. Some people will not do what was morally right in the past.
C. We don't meet with those who need help any more.
D. Now it is the government's duty to help the beggars.
74. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Some people dress up to pretend to be beggars.
B. Some beggars want money to help their children go to school
C. Some beggars use the money to buy drugs.
D. Some beggars have no excuse for begging.
75. In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that it is hard to come to any final conclusion, because _____
A. the cases can be so different B. there are so many beggars
C. there is so much money wasted D. there are so many different arguments
