第三部分：阅读理解（共两节，40分）
第一节  （共15小题；每小题2分，共30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
         A study of English learning problems was carried out among a total of 106 foreign students. It shows that most students considered understanding spoken English to be their biggest problem on arrival. This was followed by speaking. Writing increased as a problem as students discovered difficulties in writing papers that they were now expected to hand in. Reading remained as a significant(very big) problem.
        Information gained helped us in determining where special attention should be paid in our course. Although many students have chosen to join the course with a reasonable motivation, we considered it important to note what seemed to encourage interest. Nearly all the students have experienced some kind of grammar-based English teaching in their own country. To use the same method would be self-defeating because it might reduce motivation, especially if it has failed in the past. Therefore a different method may help because it is different.
Variety of activity was also seen as a way of maintaining or increasing motivation. Several years ago we had one timetable that operated throughout, but we soon found that both the students and the teachers lost interest about halfway through the ten weeks. This led us to a major re-think, so in the end we brought it into line with the expressed language needs of the students.
56. What does the passage want to tell us?
        A. Foreign students have more problems.
        B. There are many ways to improve English.
        C. Teaching should meet students’ needs.
        D. English learning problems should be studied again.
57. Writing became a bigger problem when foreign students __________.
        A. had to write their papers        B. became better at speaking
        C. became less interested in reading        D. had fewer problems with listening
58. We may infer from the last two paragraphs that_________.
        A. different teaching methods should be used
        B. grammar-based teaching seems to be encouraging
        C. English courses are necessary for foreign students
        D. teaching content should be changed halfway
B
What Is a Boy?
Between the innocence of babyhood and the seriousness of manhood we find a delightful creature called a “boy”. Boys come in different sizes, weights, and colors, but all boys have the same belief: to enjoy every second of every minute of every hour of every day and to fill the air with noise until the adult males pack them off to bed at night.
Boy are found everywhere – on top of, under, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around, or jumping to. Mothers spoil them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers love them, and God protects them. A boy is TRUTH with dirt on its face. BEAUTY with a cut on its finger, WISDOM with chocolate in its hair, and the HOPE of the future with a snake in its pocket.
When you are busy, a boy is a trouble-maker and a noise. When you want him to make a good impression, his brain turns to jelly, or else he becomes a wild creature bent on destroying the world and himself with it.
A boy is a mixture – he has the stomach of a horse, the digestion of stones and sand, the energy of an atomic bomb, the curiosity of a cat, the imagination of a superman, the shyness of a sweet girl, the brave nature of a bull, the violence of a firecracker, but when you ask him to make something, he has five thumbs (拇指) on each hand.
He likes ice cream, knives, saws, Christmas, comic books, woods, water (in its natural habitat), large animals, Dad, trains, Saturday mornings, and fire engines. He is not much for Sunday schools, company, schools, books without pictures, music lessons, neckties, barbers, girls, overcoats, adults, or bedtime.
Nobody else is so early to rise, or so late to supper. Nobody else gets so much fun out of trees, dogs, and breezes. Nobody else can put into one pocket a rusty knife, a half eaten apple, a three-feet rope, six cents and some unknown things.
A boy is a magical creature – he is your headache but when you come home at night with only shattered pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with two magic words, “Hi, Dad!”
59．The whole passage is in a tone(调子) of          .
        A．humor and affection        B．respect and harmony
        C．ambition and expectation        D．confidence and imagination
60．Could you figure out the meaning of the underlined sentence?
        A．He has altogether five fingers.        B．He is slow, foolish and clumsy.
        C．He becomes clever and smart.        D．He cuts his hand with a knife.
61．According to the writer, boys appreciate everything in the following except          .
        A．ice cream                B．comic books       
        C．Saturday mornings        D．Sunday schools
62．What does the writer feel about boys?
        A．He feels curious about their noise.        B．He is fed up with these creatures.
        C．He is amazed by their naughtiness.        D．He feels unsafe staying with them.

Many critics worry about violence on television, most out of fear that it stimulates viewers to violent or aggressive acts. Our research, however, indicates that the consequences of experiencing TV’s symbolic world of violence may be much more far-reaching.
We have found that people who watch a lot of TV see the real world as more dangerous and frightening than those who watch very little. Heavy viewers are less trustful of their fellow citizens, and more fearful of the real world. Since most TV “action-adventure” dramas occur in urban settings, the fear they inspire may contribute to the current flee of the middle class from our cities. The fear may also bring increasing demands for police protection, and election of law-and-order politicians.
While none of us is completely dependent upon television for our view of the world, neither have many of us had the opportunity to observe the reality of police stations, courtrooms, corporate board rooms, or hospital operating rooms. Although critics complain about the fixed characters and plots of TV dramas, many viewers look on them as representative of the real world. Anyone who questions that statement should read the 250,000 letters, most containing requests for medical advice, sent by viewers to “Marcus Welby, M.D.” —a popular TV drama series about a doctor— during the first five years of his practice on TV.
Violence on television leads viewers to regard the real world as more dangerous than it really is, which must also influence the way people behave. When asked, “Can most people be trusted?” the heavy viewers were 35 percent more likely to choose “Can’t be too careful.”
Victims, like criminals, must learn their proper roles, and televised violence may perform the teaching function all too well. Instead of worrying only about whether television violence causes individual displays of aggression in the real world, we should also concern about social reality. Passive acceptance of violence in the face of injustice may result from far greater social concern than occasional displays of individual aggression.
We have found that violence on prime-time（黄金时段）network TV cultivates overstated （夸大的）assumptions about the threat of danger in the real world. Fear is a universal emotion, and easy to exploit. The overstated sense of risk and insecurity may lead to increasing demands for protection, and to increasing pressure for the use of force by established authority. Instead of threatening the social order, television may have become our chief instrument of social control.

63. Which of the following is NOT among the consequences of watching TV too much?
        A. Distrusting people around.                                B. Moving into rural areas.
        C. Turning to the police for protection.                D. Holding more elections.
64.        According to the passage, why did “Marcus Welby, M.D.” receive so many letters?
        A. Because viewers believed the doctor did exist in the real life.
        B. Because certain TV programmes recommended him to viewers.
        C. Because he was an experienced doctor and saved many lives.
        D. Because the TV appealed to people to pay attention to health.
65.        According to the author, _________ is mainly to blame for people’s fear of the real world.
        A. network TV                                                B. social reality
        C. individual display of violence                        D. televised violence
66.        We can infer from the passage that __________.
        A. people tend to be aggressive or violent after watching TV too much
        B. people can learn to protect themselves from dangers by watching TV
C. the occasional displays of individual aggression may threaten the social order　
        D. watching TV may cause the misuse of authority and disturb the social order

Most schools ban chewing gum（口香糖）, but in a few years they might consider changing that rule. Why? Scientists are finding evidence that gum chewing may be good for your health. It may even help boost your test scores.
This exciting research is just beginning. And at the same time, companies are also experimenting with adding vitamins, minerals, medicines, and other substances that could give gum the power to cure headaches and fight everything from serious diseases to bad breath.
These gums are part of the growing number of foods and drinks that contain health-boosting ingredients. If you’re already a gum fan, that’s probably welcome news.
Americans chew about 1.8 pounds of gum per person each year, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. By showing that gum chewing can be healthy, companies that make and sell gum hope that we’ll chew even more.
Chewing gum might be good for your brain. One Japanese study of nine participants found that chewing gum boosted the flow of blood to participants’ brains by up to 40 percent. Blood carries oxygen, which fuels brain cells.
Other small studies have found that people perform better on memory tests while chewing gum. And a study in the United Kingdom found that people who chewed gum while memorizing a list of words did about 25 percent better at recalling those words than people who didn’t chew gum.
But additional studies are still needed to confirm that chewing gum has benefits. So far, results of studies about memory have been mixed. Not all tests have had similarly encouraging results. What’s more, many of the studies that show gum’s benefits are funded by gum companies.
So, for now, chew with caution. Too much chewing can damage the jaw joint. And chewing too much of a gum that contains vitamins, caffeine, or a medicine could lead to an overdose（过量）. What’s more, no matter how healthy gum chewing proves to be, it will never be a match for a healthy lifestyle. Nothing like a gum or a vitamin is going to cure a bad eating habit or a bad exercise habit. It’s not a magic bullet.
67. Scientific studies about gum chewing show that ______ .
   A. it can help fight serious diseases   B. it can help blood produce more oxygen
   C. it can help reduce headaches   D. it can help improve students’ memory
68. Why are scientists trying to put different substances in gum?
   A. To make it taste more delicious.   B. To make it contain more ingredients.
   C. To help cure different illnesses.   D. To help improve the sales of gum.
69. What does the writer think of the results of the present studies about gum?
   A. The writer has no doubt about them.   B. The writer isn’t quite sure about them.
   C. The writer doesn’t believe them at all.   D. The writer is very happy with them.
70. Which of the following statements would the writer agree with?
   A. Students should be careful with gum chewing.
   B. The more gums we chew, the more words we will remember.
   C. Gum chewing helps change a bad eating habit.
   D. The healthier gum chewing proves to be, the more we should chew.

There is an English saying, “___(71)____” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. _____ (72)_____
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.____ (73)____ If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes. The group that tolerated the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny programme. ____(74)____
    ____(75)_____They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.
A. Laughter can surely last one’s life.
B. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh.
C. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.

阅读理解(第一节)：
56. 答案C。考查主旨总结，根据第二段大意及文章最后一句得出结论。
57. 答案A。考查细节理解，根据第一段最后一句确定答案。
58. 答案A。考查推理判断。根据第二段大意及第五行的Therefore a different method may help because it is different.确定答案。
59. A 考查整体理解。通过快速阅读文章不难看出文章的写作方法和笔调（tone）。
60. B 考查推理判断。易错题。只要具备阅读技巧就能答对此题。答案在关键词but之后，but之前讲的是boy的长处，而but之后笔者笔锋一转，显然是说男孩的弱点。
61. D考查细节理解。从文章倒数第三段第二行得知答案。
62. C考查主旨大意。易误选B。如果不知道be fed up with=be tired of是“讨厌”的意思，就很难排除B选项。从文章的最后一段A boy is a magical creature及其后面的解释就能看出作者对男孩那种“顽皮劲”“淘气劲”的感觉。
63. 答案D。第二段最后一句The fear may also bring increasing demands for police protection, and election of law-and-order politicians. D选项夸大了原文的真是意义。
64. 答案 A。根据Although critics complain about the fixed characters and plots of TV dramas, many viewers look on them as representative of the real world. Anyone who questions that statement should read the 250,000 letters, most containing requests for medical advice, sent by viewers to “Marcus Welby, M.D.” —a popular TV drama series about a doctor— during the first five years of his practice on TV.等判断答案。
65. 答案B。根据第三段Instead of worrying only about whether television violence causes individual displays of aggression in the real world, we should also concern about social reality. Passive acceptance of violence in the face of injustice may result from far greater social concern than occasional displays of individual aggression.推理答案。
66. 答案B。易混题。根据第四段Violence on television leads viewers to regard the real world as more dangerous than it really is, which must also influence the way people behave. When asked, “Can most people be trusted?” the heavy viewers were 35 percent more likely to choose “Can’t be too careful.”分析推理出答案。
67. 答案D。细节理解。根据第一段确定答案。
68. 答案C。细节理解。根据第二段最后一句确定答案。
69. 答案B。细节理解。根据文章最后一段可以确定答案。
70. 答案A。细节理解。根据文章最后一段首句So, for now, chew with caution.和末句的It’s nota magic bullet.可以看出作者态度和观点。
阅读理解(第二节)：
71. F 根据第一句话后句中的the saying确定答案。此题干扰项是A。
72. G 根据look into laughter and the effects确定答案，干扰项E说法太绝对。
73. D 根据第二段内容确定答案。
74. C 根据第三段内容确定答案。
75. B 通过该选项的these discoveries可知是对全文进行总结。

开放作文
Possible version 1:
        As is depicted in the picture, a horse is grinding the wheat into flour in a mill. Swift horse as it is, it seems to spare no effort to do this tiring job.
The picture vividly delivers a message to us all that we are supposed to plant our feet on solid ground despite the fact that we may sometimes possess outstanding abilities. It is an established fact that those who have distinguished abilities are expected to achieve higher goals. Nevertheless, they would be well advised to reach their goals step by step or even by performing some boring tasks. Just like the swift horse in the picture, it trains itself by grinding the wheat, which can serve as a preparation for its long journey in the future. Doing the seemingly tedious work can not only build up our strength but also shape our character. In other words, treating the boring work seriously can develop our patience as well as responsibility, which is of vital importance to our sustainable development.
As for us teenagers, there is no doubt that only by committing ourselves to daily practices can we fully realize our potentials.
Possible version 2:
As is vividly depicted in the picture, the “Swift Horse”, firmly restricted in a simple and crude mill, has no alternative but to slowly grind the wheat into flour just like an awkward donkey.
The ridiculous picture reflects a common but thought-provoking social problem that usually talented people are merely assigned with some trivial tasks, which is definitely regarded as a waste of resources. Able as they are, they have no chance to carry out their ideals. As a matter of fact, the “Swift Horse” is supposed to have achieved more success or accomplished more challenging assignments. However, he is bound to the improper working environment and required to do the simple and boring job, which absolutely retards his progress. In addition, we should make it clear that everybody has the potential to succeed. Thus, employers must provide employees with suitable opportunities to make good use of their talents, while teachers must recognize students’ advantages and teach them in accordance with their aptitudes.
In a word, as far as we teenagers are concerned, only if everybody is given the opportunity to display his talents fully, we’ll have an infinitely bright future.
