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,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 After 10 seasons wearing the No.8 on his back,Kobe Bryant will become No.24 next season.The reason for the surprising decision by the Los Angeles Lakers super guard last week has become a hot topic for debate. Bryant wore No.24 when he was in early high school,but he changed to No.33 in his senior year.He switched to No.8 when he was selected by the Lakers in 1996,and has not been changed since. Bryant has refused to explain the decision until the end of the play-offs.So guessing Bryant’s motive has become a popular game among NBA fans and newspaper columnists. There are all kinds of speculations(猜测).Many say that Bryant wants to leave the past behind and have a fresh start.He has often been criticized for phying to benefit himself and not the team as a whole.Others say that he may be trying to compare himself to Michael Jordan.Jordan was famous for his No.23 jersey(运动衫).Some,such as NBC Sport columnist Michael Ventre,argue that it is“all about money”.Bryant will make more money by selling new jerseys to his fans. Some speculations are more about fun.For example,there is an opinion that Kobe is actually just a diehard fan of the popular TV drama“24”. All this talk has turned the number change into a major issue.It seems that there is a lot of fuss over something that should be pretty simple. Jersey numhers have their own special significance in American sports,especially basketball. Players choose their number when they join a team and they usually stick with that number for the rest of their career.When a great player retires,his team will honor him by retiring his number. To some extent,the jersey is the player,and the player is the jersey.Thus,when you see the famous No.23 for the Chicago Bulls,you immediately think about Michael Jordan.A No.32 Miami Heats jersey recalls the image of Shaquille O’Neal,and the Houston Rockets’No.11 belongs only to Yao Ming. 56.Which team has Bryant played for? A.The Los Angeles Lakers. B.The Houston Rockets. C.The Chicago Bulls. D.The Miami Heats. 57.Bryant has worn No 8________? A.for two years and a half B.for ten years C.since he entered high school D.since he left high school 58.Which of the following is NOT a speculation about Bryant’s motive to change his number? A.He wants to leave his past behind and have a fresh start. B.He wants to compare himself to Jordan. C.He wants to earn more money. D.He wants to show that he is a man of great importance. 59.What can we learn from the last paragraph? A.When a great player retires,his team will reward him with much money. B.A lucky number will be passed on to a new player. C.An outstanding player’s jersey number won’t be used after his retirement. D.A great player often changes his jersey number in the same team |
If a person tells you that something is“the real McCoy”,he is telling you it is the real thins,not a copy or replacement.There is nothing false about“the real McCoy”.It is the best that can be found. There are different ideas on how the expression came into common use.Perhaps the most popular story is about a famous boxer,Charles Kid McCoy,a one-time world famous welter-weigh champion.One day,McCoy was having a drink in a bar with a lady friend.A man came up and began to talk to her.He was not a nice man. McCoy wanted no trouble.He asked the man to leave.He said.“I"m Kid McCoy.”McCoy thought his name was so well-known that he didn’t need to say more.But the man did not believe him.“Oh,yeah?”he said.“Well,if you are Kid McCoy,then I am George Washington!”And he continued to speak to the prize-fighter’s friend in all unpleasant way. McCoy hit the man with a fist-not hard-actually it was really a light touch.But the man fell to the ground,unconscious.Ten minutes later,when he came to sense,he called out。“That was the real McCoy!”And so,as told by kid McCoy,that was how the expression“the real McCoy”got statted. There are other versions,however.One is that the expression goes back to the days of prohibition(禁止)when it was illegal in the United States to sell whiskey.Although whiskey was against the law,many sold it.And many sold bad whiskey.They were not afraid to do so,because there was so little that anybody could do about it.Buying whiskey,good or had,was as illegal as selling it. But there was one whiskey dealer who was honest.His name was McCoy.He refused to sell bad whiskey.He sold only the best imported whiskey.His product became recognized as the best.It was called“the real McCoy”. The expression survived prohibition days and soon became a general term.One way or another,no matter how the expression began,“the real McCoy”is an expression that everyone understands.It means the one and only—the best one.They are indeed words of special praise. 67.What is the main idea of the first paragraph? A.It is about the exact meaning of the version. B.It tells how a person gets his name. C.It shows how to tell the real from the false. D.It explains how to find the best. 68.In the third paragraph,“the prize-fighter”refers to______. A.a champion B.George Washington C.a fellow D.McCoy 69.Which of the following is TRUE about the days prohibition? A.A national law forbade the sale of alcoholic drinks. B.Bad whiskey was not allowed to sell. C.People at that time preferred nothing but whiskey. D.The days of prohibition resulted in MeCoy’s selling wine. 70.What is the main idea of the whole passage? A.The story of a famous boxer. B.The general use ofthe version. C.The expression and its story. D.The friendship between an athlete and a seller. |

Grandpa had sent me into the 36 to gather pecans for us to enjoy later. Pecan picking was really 37 work and my little basket was only half full. I wasn’t about to 38 Grandpa down. Just then something caught my 39. A large brown squirrel was a few feet away. I watched as he picked up a pecan, hurried to a tree and 40 in a large hole in the trunk. A moment later the squirrel 41 out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut. Once again, he took the pecan back to his hiding place. The hiding place was not so 42 anymore, I thought.

He handed the basket back to me and put his arm gently 49 my shoulders. “That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter 50 of food,” he said, “Now that all of his pecans are gone, don’t you think that little squirrel will 51 the cold winter?” “I didn’t think about that,” I said. “I know,” Grandpa said. “But a good man should never take 52 of someone else’s hard work.” Suddenly I felt a bit 53. The image of the starving squirrel wouldn’t 54 my mind. There was only one thing I could do. I carried the basket back to the tree and poured all the nuts into the hole.
