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，然后从各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
“It hurts me more than you”,and “This is for your own good”—these are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin,clean my room,stay home and do homework.
That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school.The schools and the educators made it easy for us.They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy.We stopped making our children do homework.We gave them calculators,turned on the television,left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.
Now teachers,faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years ,are realizing we’ve made a terrible mistake.One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students —“so passive”—and wonders what has happened.Nothing is demanded of them,she believes.Television,says Klompus,contributes to children’s passivity.“We’re talking about a generation of kids who’ve never been hurt or hungry.They have learned somebody will always do it for them,instead of saying‘go and look it up’,you tell them the answer.It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”
Yes,it does.It takes energy and it takes work.It’s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work.It’s time to take the car away,to turn the TV off,to tell them it hurts you more than them but it’s for their own good.It’s time to start telling no again.
56.Children are becoming more inactive in study because______.
A.they watch TV too often
B.they have done too much homework
C.they have to fulfil too many duties
D.teachers are too strict with them
57.We learn from the passage that the author’s mother used to lay emphasis on______.
A.learning Latin B.discipline
C.natural development D.education at school
58.By“permissive period in education”(L.1,Para.2)the author means a time______.
A.when children are allowed to do what they wish to
B.when everything can be taught at school
C.when every child can be educated
D.when children are permitted to receive education
59.The main idea of the passage is that______.
A.parents should leave their children alone
B.kids should have more activities at school
C.it’s time to be more strict with our kids
D.parents should always set a good example to their kids
B
When I asked my daughter which items she would keep:the phone,the car,the cooker,the computer,the TV,or her boyfriend,she said“the phone”.Personally,I could do without the phone entirely,which makes me unusual.Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.
Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate,in the same way that more roads create more traffic.My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day.If the phone did not exist,would she have anything to talk about?
Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone.“The mobile saved my life,”says Crystal Johnstone.She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skiption.Trapped inside,she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车)to her rescue.
Point 3 The mobile removes our secret.It allows Marketing Manager of Haba Deutsch,Carl Nicolaisen,to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are,where they are going,and how their last meeting went.
Point 4 The telephone separates us.Antonella Bramante in Rome says,“We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window.It was easy to get his number.We were so near—but we didn't meet for the first two weeks!”
Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives.Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously(同时地)on chat lines(at least my daughter does.I wouldn’t know what to talk about).We can talk across the world.We can even talk to astronauts(if you know any )while they’re space-walking.And,with the phone line hooked up to the computer,we can access(存取)the Internet,the biggest library on Earth.
60.How do you understand“Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate,…”?
A.People don’t communicate without telephone.
B.People communicate because of the creating of the telephone.
C.People communicate more since telephone has been created.
D.People communicate more because of more traffic.
61.Which of the following best shows people’s attitude towards mobile phones?
A.Mobile phones help people deal with the emergency.
B.Mobile phones bring convenience as well little secret to people.
C.Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged.
D.Mobile phones are part of people’s life.
62.Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve people’s life?
a.Point 1. b.Point 2. c.Point 3. d.Point 4. e.Point 5.
A.c,d B.a,e C.a,c D.b,e
63.It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through______.
A.the TV screen
B.a fax machine
C.the phone line hooked up to the computer
D.a microphone
64.The best heading for the passage is______.

C.How to Use Phones D.Advantage of Phones

The volcano is one of the most surprising frightening forces of nature.Maybe you have seen pictures of these“fireworks”of nature.Sometimes when a volcano erupts,a very large wall of melted rock moves down the side of a mountain.It looks like a “river of fire”.Sometimes volcanoes explode,throwing the melted rock and ashes(灰)high into the air.But where does this melted rock come from?
The earth is made up of many layers(层).The top layer that we see is called the crust.Under the crust are many layers of hard rock.But far,far beneath the crust whose rock is so hot,that it is soft.In some places it even melts.The melted rock is called magma.Sometimes the magma breaks out to the surface through cracks(爆裂声)in the crust.These cracks are volcanoes.
Most people think of mountains when they think of volcanoes.But not every mountain is a volcano.A volcano is simply the opening in the earth from which the magma escapes.The hot magma,or lava as it is called,cools and builds up on the surface of the earth.Over thousands of years,this pile of cooled lava can grow to be very,very big.For example,the highest mountain in Africa,Kilimanjaro,is a volcano.It towers more than 16 000 feet above the ground around it.
68.The underlined word“erupts”means______.
A.moves down B.breaks away
C.builds up D.suddenly throws out lava
69.Which words in the passage have the same meaning as“melted rock”?
A.“Volcano”and“explode”. B.“Crust”and“hard rock”.
C.“Magma”and “lava”. D.“Volcano”and “magma”.
70.Which is the correct order or the layers of the earth(beginning with the top layer)?
A.crust-hard rock-magma-soft rock B.crust -hard rock -soft rock -magma
C.magma -soft rock -hard rock- crust D.volcano -cracks magma -crust
71.The best title(标题)of the passage should be______.
A.The Volcano B.Kilimanjaro Volcano
C.The Mountains D.The Melted Rock

Technology is the application(应用)of knowledge to production.Thanks to modern technology,we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force.New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output.This has meant more production and a higher standard of living.For most of us in America,modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets.However,technology has also increased the amount of food available(有用的)to us,by means of modern farming machinery and animalbreeding techniques,and has extended our life span via(通过)medical technology.
Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life?In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely.If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years,the answer is definitely yes.The advancement of technology,depends upon research and development,and the latest statistics(统计)show that the United States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually(每年)into such efforts.So while we are running out of some scarce resources(少的资源)we may well find technological substitutes(代用品)for many of them through our research programs.
Therefore,in the final analysis the three major factors of production(land,labor and capital)are all influenced by technology.When we need new skills on techniques in medicine,people will start developing new technology to meet those needs.As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient,new machines will be invented.Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living.
72.What is the best title for the passage?
A.The definition of technology. B.Modern technology.
C.The application of technology. D.The development of technology.
73.From the passage,we can infer that this article is probably______.
A.a part of the introduction to American business
B.followed by the passage talking about factors of production
C.taken from a learned journal
D.Both A and B
74.Which is the main idea of the passage?
A.Modern technology is the key to the improvement of standard of living.
B.The three major factors of production-land,labor and capital are all influenced by technology.
C.Technology is the response to our needs.
D.The United Sates is making great efforts to advance its technology.
75.According to the passage,people can live a long life with the help of______.
A.higher quality of life B.medical technology
C.modern farming machinery D.technological substitute

Dear Mr Smith,
I was so pleased to hear from you and am writing to tell you something about my village.Quite a few changes have taken place in my village,through which runs a small river with a stone bridge over it.There are new houses along the southern bank of the river.Beside the houses there is a playground where the villagers often play ball games after farm work.There is a new school which is to the south of the playground and a library to the east of the school.Also there are rice fields near the houses.A toy factory lies on the northern bank of the river.Beyond it is an orchard where all kinds of fruit are grown.
The villagers here are living a happy life.I hope you’ll come and see for yourself some day.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Wang Ming
