第三部分阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分) (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) My daddy doesn’t know how to express love at all. It is my mum that makes everyone happy and calm in our family; while daddy only works day and night, never looking us in the face. But mum makes a wrongdoing list of us for daddy scolding us. She’s a spy! Once, I stole a candy. Daddy asked me to put it back and told the shopkeeper that I would like to carry loads for her. Well, mum told him I was just a child. I broke my leg on the playground. It’s still mum that held me tightly in her warm arms. Daddy drove us right to the emergency room. He was asked to move the car away for that vacant was for ambulance. Daddy got angry, “what do you think of it? A touring car?” On my birthday party, it was, again, my mum that took over the cake for me. My dad? He was busy blowing balloons and setting the table and doing the housework. While looking over our album, friends always ask, “What does your father look like?” God knows. He photos others all the time. So there are many and many photos of my mum and me, pretty and lovely photos. And I still remembered the day when dad taught me riding. I asked him not to let his hands away, but he did the opposite. And I certainly fell onto the ground. I got angry and decided to get on the bike and rode. But he smiled again. Mum wrote every letter to me while I was in college. He, except checks, did write a letter, but extremely short, just a few words, saying, “Without your playing on the lawn, my son, my lawn grows prettier than before.” Every time I phoned, it seemed he wanted to talk, but he would say, “I will get your mum.” On the day of my wedding, mum cried as if we would never meet again, while dad went out with a nasal sound. From very young, I heard him saying, “Where have you been?” “When do you go home?” “Did you get oil for your car?” “No, I don’t agree.” Dad really knows nothing about showing love. Unless... Maybe he showed while I didn’t notice, is it? 56. From the first and second paragraphs, we can infer that____. A. it was the daddy that was in charge of his children’s education B. the writer’s parents loved their children; at the same time, they were strict with them C. the children were all afraid of their father so they had to be cute D. the writer’s mom was like a spy who reported what the children did to the father 57.

Young drivers are over-represented in alcohol--related driving accidents. In recent years, people aged 16 to 24 were involved in 28 percent of all alcohol--related driving accidents, although they make up only 14% of the U. S. population. Young people are also over--represented in drinking driver injuries and deaths. Even when their blood alcohol contents (BACs) are not high, young drinkers are involved in driving accidents at higher rates than older drivers with similar BACs. Fortunately, driving accidents have been declining among young people, just as they have among the general population. And deaths associated with young drinking drivers (those 16 to 24 years of age) are down, having dropped 47% in a recent 15--year period. In contrast to popular belief, drinking among young people is dropping and has been doing so for many years. For example, statistics demonstrate that within a period of about 20 years, the proportion of American high school seniors who have ever consumed alcohol is down 13%;the proportion of those who have consumed alcohol within the previous year is down 15%. Exaggerating the degree of drinking problems of young people may create an unexpected problem. When young people go to college falsely believing that most others are drinking heavily, then they may try to follow suit. Thus, those who exaggerate the problem of alcohol abuse actually contribute to the problem and make it worse. However, when students find out that most others don’t drink as much as they incorrectly believed, they are very likely to drink less and even give up. So, honest accuracy rather than dishonest exaggeration is the most effective way to reduce alcohol abuse and the problems it causes. 60. We can learn from the first paragraph that ____. A. in the U. S. people aged 16 to 24 caused half of the alcohol--related driving accidents B. young drinkers are more likely to cause accidents than adult drinkers C. young drinkers are able to keep calm when their BACs are not high D. people aged 16 to 24 make up a quarter of the U. S. population 61. It can be inferred from Para. 3 that ____. A. high school seniors turn to alcohol to get rid of their pressure B. it’s a fact that young people are drinking more nowadays C. the number of high school students in the U. S is dropping D. most people believe more and more young people are becoming addicted to drinking 62. The underlined phrase “follow suit” in the last paragraph means ____. A. stop drinking B. wear the same suit as others do C. start drinking D. hate what others do 63. Which of the following statements does the author agree to? A. Driving should be forbidden among people aged 16 to 24. B. Many young people in the U. S. are acting totally irresponsibly. C. The drinking problems of young people are turning for the better. D. Students will stop drinking if they believe most others are drinking heavily. |
第三部分:阅读理解(共20题;每小题1.5分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 From age eight to eleven, I attended a small school in Bath, England. It was a small school of four classes with about twenty-five children in each class according to age. For the most part, one teacher had to teach all subjects to the children in the class. However, sometimes the headmaster, Mr. Ronald Broaches, would come in and spend an hour or so, teaching some subjects in which he was especially interested. He was a large man with a very happy nature. He had a sense of humor and would delight in telling the children small stories that would make us laugh. He was a very fair man and had a great influence on many of the children. In my own case, I found that he took great interest in me and he quickly found that I enjoyed puzzles. He would often stop me as I was going to class and take a piece of paper out of his pocket, often with a puzzle already on it. The puzzles were usually mathematical or logical. As time went on, they slowly got more difficult, but I loved them. Not only that, they made me interested in math and problem solving that stays with me to this day. They also served to show me that intellectual activity was rewarding when the correct answers were found, but perhaps more importantly it was great fun. To this day, I can remember Mr. Broaches’ cheerful cry of “Well done!” whenever I got a problem right. The simple communication with a man whom I loved greatly has had a deep influence on my life. I shall forever be thankful that our paths crossed. Mr. Broaches died just two weeks after I had won the 1993 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Unluckily, I had no chance to speak to him before he died. I learnt later that he had heard of my success and I will always hope that he knew the deep influence he had made on my life. 56. There were ________ children in each class when Richard was in the school in Bath, England. A. 4 B. 8 C. 11 D. 25 57. From the text, we can learn that ___________. A. the puzzles made the students laugh B. the students were afraid of the headmaster C. the puzzles made Richard enjoy math D. the headmaster never taught in the school 58. The writer felt sorry because __________. A. Mr. Broaches had passed away before he won the Nobel Prize B. he didn’t express his thanks before Mr. Broaches died C. he couldn’t find Mr. Broaches after he grew up D. Mr. Broaches didn’t know his success 59. What is the best title(标题)for the text ? A. The Story of Mr. Broaches. B. The Story of Richard J. Roberts. C. My Early School Life. D. An Important Teacher in My Life. |
