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,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A The first thing I do when I wake up is to make a mental list of all things I have to do that day. I’m very organized! Then I get up and have my bath. Often my best matchmaking ideas come while I’m in the bath. Sometimes I have a really good idea about who might be with whom. Before I did matchmaking, I was a social worker, but I knew I wanted to do something without bosses telling me what to do and that I am good at dealing with people. Also I had seen too many broken marriages and too many people go downhill because they were so lonely. So I gave up my job, did a bit of research and started the matchmaking business in 1970. Over the last few years we’ve been doing introductions throughout Europe as well as here in Britain. Europeans want to meet British people. For every 100 people who come to us, about 65 will settle down. We keep going until clients (委托人) find someone that they get on very well with. Of course there are impossible people, those who will never settle. Sometimes I end up giving advice to clients. A few months ago, we had a highly paid scientist with a very nice face, but every woman refused to meet him a second time. It soon became clear that he did not like changing his shirts. So I had to be very honest and direct and told him, “But a woman can’t start to love you if your shirt smells.” The job is most satisfying when I get a call from a couple telling me they have fallen in love. 56. Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A. On Being a Matchmaker B. Dealing with People C. Matchmakers and Clients D. The Most Satisfying Job 57. What does the author mean by saying “I’m very organized”? A. She is especially capable of organizing things. B. She has a fixed plan for her everyday activities. C. She likes to remember things she has to do. D. She always finishes what she does on time. 58. What was the personal factor that made the author change her job? A. She was warm and kind-hearted. B. She could understand people better than others. C. She liked to make her own decisions. D. She was interested in social problems. 59. From the author’s experience given in the last paragraph, we can conclude that to be a good matchmaker, sometimes it is better for one to be ____. A. direct B. kind C. hard working D. organized B We have saved as a final set of emotions the two most important emotions (情感) towards other people: love and its opposite, hate. Love can be seen everywhere. Yet surprisingly, love has been the subject of less scientific research than other emotions, such as anger and fear. The reason for this may be twofold.First, love is a very complex (复杂的) emotion, difficult to describe and measure. Secondly, unlike many extreme emotions, extreme love is generally not a problem; thus less medical attention has been paid to it. What is love? This is a complex question and requires a complex answer. Love is a lasting, strong, positive attraction and feeling for another person or thing. But it is more than this. It also includes feelings of caring, protection and excitement. When two people are in love, they feel drawn to one another; they greatly enjoy each other’s company; and they may be sexually attracted to one another. Sometimes it is easier to think in terms of different kinds of love: “puppy” love, romantic love, brotherly love, and so forth. Though they differ in some respects, they share one important characteristic: a strong positive feeling toward another. Our feelings toward other people are often complex. We may love someone and, at the same time, be angry with him. Or we may love someone, even though we envy him. We might even love someone and, at the same time, hate him for some specific reason. Hate is a strong negative emotion toward someone, and is due to anger, or some other factor. Like love, hate can be a very strong emotion. It can also be very dangerous. The question is often asked, “Is it bad to hate?” The best answer is probably “sometimes yes and sometimes no.” Usually hate does not help us; it makes us feel unhappy and makes us do things that may hurt others. However, sometimes it may be necessary to hate and hurt someone in order to protect loved ones. 60.In the parts previous to the passage you’ve just read, the author has probably been discussing ____. A. the two most important human emotions---love and hate B. some emotions that are only produced by animals C. some other sets of human emotions than of love and hate D. none of the above 61. According to the passage, the emotion of love has been medically paid less attention to because ____. A. it is too common to be talked about B. compared with other kinds of emotions, love is not so important C. the study of love needs great effort and advanced scientific research D. love is harmless and too complex for description 62.From the passage, we can conclude that when two people are in love, they ____. A. will never be angry with or hate each other B. are strongly attracted to each other C. will not envy each other D. tend to do all of the above 63.Which of the following might best be used as the title for the passage? A. Two Most Important Emotions Towards Others. B. Love More and Hate Less. C. The Great Benefits of Love and the Serious Harm of Hate. D. Some Advice to Those Who Are In Love.
C Every pet owner loves his pet. There is no argument here. But when we asked our readers whether they would clone their beloved animals, the responses were split almost down the middle. Of the 228 readers who answered it, 108 would clone, 111 would not and nine weighed each side without offering an opinion. Clearly, from readers’ response, this is an issue that reaches deeply into both the joy and eventual sadness of owning a pet. It speaks, as well, to people’s widely differing expectations over the developing scientific procedure. Most of the respondents who favored the idea strongly believed it would produce at least a close copy of the original; many felt the process would actually return an exact copy. Those on the other side, however, held little hope a clone could never truly recreate a pet, many simply didn’t wish to go against the natural law of life and death. Both sides expressed equal love for their animals. More than a few respondents owned “the best dog/cat in the world”. They thought of their pets as their “best friend”, “a member of the family,” “the light of my life.” They told moving stories of pets’ heroism, intelligence and selfless devotion. Little wonders the loss is so disturbing---and the cloning so attractive. “People become very close to their animals, and the loss can be just as hard to bear as when a friend or family member dies,” says Gary Kowalski, author of Goodbye, Friend: Healing Wisdom for Anyone Who Has Ever Lost a Pet. “For me, cloning feels like an attempt to turn death away…It’s understandable. Death is always painful. It’s difficult to deal with. It’s hard to accept.” But would cloning reduce the blow? This question seemed to be at the heart of this problem. 64.So far as the cloning of pets is concerned, a recent survey shows that, of all pet owners, ____. A. a lot more of them are for it B. a lot more of them are against it C. very few of them are willing to tell their opinions D. about half of them are for it and the other half against it 65.While talking about the respondents from the readers, the expression “eventual sadness of owning a pet” refers to ____. A. the death of one’s pet B. the high cost of owning a pet C. the troubles one has to deal with in keeping a pet D. the dangers involved in the cloning of a pet 66.In spite of their differences on the problem of cloning, it seems that ____. A. all pet owners love their pets very much B. all pet owners try to go against the natural law of life and death C. people who support cloning love their pets more D. people who dislike cloning love their pets more 67.From what Gary Kowalski says, we can know that he ____. A. has never thought about the problem of cloning B. is going to write another book on pets C. is in favor of the idea of cloning pets D. is all against the cloning of pets 68.What is the key question at the heart of the problem of cloning pets? A. Can cloning make the pain one suffers less when a pet dies? B. Can pet owners afford the cost of cloning? C. Does cloning go against the law of nature? D. How reliably does cloning produce an exact copy of one’s pet? D How can you find out what is going on inside a person’s body without opening the patient up? Regular X-ray can show a lot. CAT scans (扫描) can show even more. They can give a three-dimensional (三维的) view of body organs (器官). What is CAT scan? CAT stands for Computerized Axial Topography (层面X线照相术). It is a special X-ray machine that obtains a 360 degree picture of a small area of a patient’s body. Doctors use X-rays to study and diagnose (discover the nature of) diseases and injuries within the body. X-rays can learn the position of foreign objects inside the body or take pictures of some inside organs---if special liquids are added to the organs to be X-rayed. A CAT scanner, however, uses a light of X-rays to give a cross-sectional (横断面的) view of a specific part of the body. A fine light of X-rays is scanned across the body and turned around the patient from many different positions. A computer collects the information from each position and produces a clear cross-sectional image on a screen. This image is then photographed for later use. Several cross-sections, taken one after another, can give clear “photo” of the entire body organs. The newest CAT scanners can even give clear pictures of active, moving organs, just as a fast action camera can “stop the action”, giving clear pictures of what appears unclear to the eye. And because of the 360-degree pictures, CAT scans show 3 dimensional views of organs in a manner that was only made known during an operation or an examination a dead patient. Too much X-ray can cause skin burns, cancer or other damage to the body. Yet CAT scans actually don’t expose (使暴露) the patient to more radiation (辐射) than regular X-rays do. CAT scans can also be done without injecting liquids into the patient so they are less risky than regular X-ray procedures. CAT scans provide accurate, detailed information. They can find such a thing as bleeding inside the brain. They are helping to save lives. 69. What is NOT true of a CAT scan? A. It makes use of computer techniques. B. It gives clear images of active, moving body parts. C. It can stop the action of an organ for some time. D. It is safer than regular X-ray procedures. 70. What is special about the latest CAT scanners? A. It helps to find out what is going on inside a person’s body without opening it up. B. It provides clear photos of moving organs. C. It won’t cause serious skin burns, cancer or other damage to the body. D. It can take 3-dimensional pictures of inside organs. 71. It is implied but not directly stated in the passage that ____. A. CAT scanners can take photos of either the whole body or one part of it B. CAT scanners do not need the injection of liquids C. CAT scanners are more expensive than regular X-ray procedures D. the patient can be exposed to a slight amount of radiation safely 72. The best title for the passage might be ____. A. The New Medical Invention B. Advantages and Disadvantages of CAT Scanners C. How to Avoid Damage to X-rays D. A New Type X-ray Machine to Save Lives E AD.1

21-35 CDBBD AACBC CDACD
36. B. prefer to do宁愿,更喜欢。许多父母不喜欢把孩子送到学校去上学。consider后要接doing,所以不对。 37. C. as在此处意为“作为”。又如:He is known as a writer。 38. A.一些父母在家教孩子,因为他们不相信学校教给学生正确的宗教价值观念。for也表原因,但是用在此处前面应加逗号。 39. D. religious values 宗教价值观念。 40. A.另一些父母认为通过在家里自己教孩子,他们可以为孩子提供一个更好的教育经历。如果用knowledge,应为they can teach their children more knowledge。 knowledge一般不和provide搭配。 41. B.从上下文“在家上学的学生,全国考试的时候,阅读和数学要比平均分高。”所以应该选有趣。51空前面的interesting是该题的后线索。这是事实,不会令人难以置信,所以unbelievably不合适。 42. D. average平均分。 43. B. David在讲述他的经历。所以应该是说,而不是相信。故believe不合适。 44. A.从下文的例子中可知,教学是和孩子的兴趣分不开的。从孩子感兴趣的话题出发,问问题,开展讨论。 45. D.开始讨论和阅读。open a discussion可以,但是open reading不合适。 46. B.铲雪工具。如选tool要用复数。 47. C. see和notice都是强调结果。look 后要接at, watch指集中注意看,强调动作。所以watch最合适。 48. D.此处强调的是可以,而不是应该,所以用could。 49. B. form a desert形成沙漠。如果选appear应为how deserts appear。 50. A. affect影响。此处的意思是影响海洋的深度,而不是决定decide or determine。 51. D. regular school常规的学校和home schooling相对应。 52. C. mix with意为“混合”,符合题意。contact为及物动词,不接with。 match with意为“搭配”。connect with意为“联系”。 53. A. be fit to do意为“胜任”,符合题意。adapt to意为“适应”,后接名词。available意为“有空”,因为后文中54空前面提到了time,所以此处就不是该意思。D也不符合题意。 54. B. desire=strong wish,渴望或欲望。hope=expectation期待。所以desire更符合题意。 55. D.所以学校将仍然是大多数学生接受教育的地方。 56. A.综观全文可知,本文的中心思想是“我”讲述自己做婚姻介绍人的经历。 57. B.第一句话就是为什么她说自己非常有计划性。“make a mental list of…” 58. C.从文章第二段第一句“without bosses telling me what to do…”可知,她喜欢自己做决定。 59. A.从本段“I had to be very honest and direct…”可知。 60. C.从第一句话“a final set of emotions”,可知。 61. D.从第一段“love is a very complex emotion…describe…is generally not a problem”可知。 62. B.从第二段最后一句可知。从最后一段“we may love someone, even though we envy him”和“we might even love someone…hate him…”可知ACD都不对。 63. A.文章的第一句话就是本文的中心思想。
?
? 64. D.108和111差不多,所以应该是一半一半。 ? 65. A.从第四段中的“life and death”可知,最终都会因为pet死而伤心。 66. A.从第五段“Both sides expressed equal love for their animals”可知。 67. C.从他说的“it’s understandable”可知,他同情/赞同克隆宠物的想法。 68. A.从文章最后一段可知。 69. C.从该仪器的全称“Computerized Axial Topography”,就可以断定A的叙述是真实的;根据第四段中的 “The newest CAT scanners can even give clear images of active, moving organs…” 可知B是真实的;从第五段的内容可知D是对的。作者在第四段中的确提到了“stop the action”,但这里指的是“使仪器的画面定位”,而不是给人的器官定位,所以C是不对的。 70. B.从第四段“The newest CAT scanners can even give clear pictures of active, moving organs”可知A、C和D都是CAT的特点,但只有最新的CAT才具备B中的特殊性能,所以选B。 71. D.从第二段“a small area of a patient’s body” 和第四段“a CAT scanner, however, uses a light of X-rays to give a cross-sectional view of a specific part of the body” 可知, A是错的。第五段指出“CAT scans can also be done without injecting liquids into the patient, so they are less risky than regular X-ray procedures” 因此排除B。C在文中未提及,也应该排除。倒数第二段指出“Yet CAT scans actually don’t expose the patient to more radiation than regular X-rays do”可见D是对的。 72. D.本文主要介绍的是CAT的特点及作用。只有D才比较全面地概括了中心思想,通过CAT优点的介绍,使我们了解到它是一种帮助医生挽救病人生命的仪器。 73. D.从“guide”中“must be willing to work long hours”,可知A不对。从“office assistant”中“Computer skills an advantage”可知懂计算机可以优先录用,但不是擅长。“tennis instructor”中1-7指的是下午1点到7点工作。所以ABC都不对。 74. C.其它的都是招聘广告。 75. B. her voice不适合做guide, knows little about management不适合做office assistant, likes to work with people不适合做assistant,所以选AD.2, tennis instructor。 76. consider→considers everyone做主语,谓语动词用单数。 77. excited→exciting experience是令人兴奋的,是主动。 78. many→more 后文中有than,所以应用比较级。 79. √ 80. the school→school hurry to school和go to school一样,school指的是上学。 81. most→mostly 此处的意思是大部分,所以用mostly。 82. stop→stop at 在公共汽车站停,缺介词at。 83. that→which 非限制性定语从句用which不用that。 84. was→is 整篇文章的时态为一般现在时,不是过去时。 85. often→seldom 此处的意思是因为城市的公交规划得好,所以人们长时间等公共汽车的时候很少。并且否定副词放在句首,句子才倒装,助动词提前。 书面表达: 一、 内容要点: 赞成方面三点(集资,需要教室,有承诺) 反对方面三点(污染,活动受影响,应由政府出钱) 二、 语言要求:下列三种情况应适当提高评分档次 1.正确运用了较多的句型结构。 2.句与句之间有顺畅连接,且逻辑合理。 3.用出了较新颖的词汇,且表达准确。
