第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题；每小2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从各题所给的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
You Mi, a lovely and confident 17-year-old student, is the first Chinese high school student to appear on the cover of the popular young adults’ fashion magazine Seventeen.
“You is IN，” said Wang Lihua, Editor-in-Chief of Seventeen. “She is active and mature（成熟的）because of her knowledge on everything from academic studies, to books on art, to movies. We found she’s the very style we’re looking for to represent young people’s attitudes.”
You also impressed Wang with her fluent English when they first met last year. As the hostess of an English broadcasting programme at the High School Affiliated to Renmin University, You is always praised for speaking English almost like a native speaker. “I’ve built up my English by watching thousands of English DVDs since I was 10,” she explained.
But for You, watching isn’t enough. Last year, while in Senior 1, she met a talented boy who showed self-made DV movies at the English Corner in her school.
“I thought it was so cool and I knew that I should start making my own films,” she said. So she wrote a campus（校园）story, persuaded schoolmates to star in it and then began shooting a 30-minute DV movie, all in English. “I played one of the leading roles, actually I was everything in my film. I worked on it every single day during the SARS holidays,” she recalled. The movie finally became a big hit on campus, earning You a strong reputation（名气）as a DV movie director.
But this is not the only field she wants to master. Despite being a science student， You likes art, literature and fashion design very much.
“There are people who can be artists, there are people who edit books, and there are people who become film producers. But I just hope to mix all the things up!” she said. “There is an old saying I believe: Chance favours only the prepared mind.”
61.You Mi was chosen to be a cover of Seventeen，mainly because she _____.
A. is beautiful
B. she is lovely and full of confidence
C. is active and mature
D. has rich knowledge
62. You Mi’s fluent English is based on _____.
A. her chance to host an English broadcasting programme
B. the influence of her parents
C. her deep interest in it
D. her making DV movie
63. The author mentioned a talented boy to show _____.
A. the great influence he had on You Mi
B. he was admired by his schoolmates
C. the young can do things as well as the adults do
D. self-made DV movies are popular at school
64. In the 30-minute DV movie， You Mi didn’t act as a（n） _____.
A. director B. musician C. actress D. producer
B
Suppose you want to buy some new clothes or a new TV. Or maybe you need some work done on your car. How can you find the best price without shopping all over town？ Ads can help you. Ads can show you lots of prices. And you don’t have to go anywhere to see them. Just open a newspaper or magazine， and you’ll find plenty of ads.
The following is an ad about TV sets for sale. Please read it and answer the questions below.
65. How many different kinds of TV sets does the store advertise here？
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
66.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the advertisement？
A. You can buy any kind on July 14th.
B. The service time is 9-9 every day except Monday.
C. The larger the screen is， the higher the price will be.
D. The lowest price is a little more than 300.
67. Which is NOT mentioned in the ad？
A. The date of the American National Day.

C
In England three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop. They studied the information on the post sign and decided which bus to take. About five minutes later the bus they wanted came along. They prepared to get on. Suddenly people rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted insulting remarks about the foreigners. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed. No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus so that the first person who arrived at a bus-stop is the first person to get on the bus.
Learning the language of a country isn’t enough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, You might see a man apparently shaking his head at another and assume (认为) that he is disagreeing. But in many parts of India a rotating (旋转) movement of the head is a gesture that express agreement or acceptance. Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to express “yes” — a nod means “no”.
In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting talking to someone, even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause offence (冒犯). It is considered too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult — it’s just not done.
Attitudes to women vary considerably around the world. In Japan, for example, it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home.
Knowing about customs and attitudes is useful when you are travelling, but you also need to know the language used to express different degrees of formality (礼节).
68. The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed because ________.
A. they didn’t know the English language
B. someone called their names
C. they didn’t know the custom of lining up for a bus
D. they knocked someone down while getting on the bus
69. According to the passage, which attitude to women is usual in Japan?
A. Men always go to parties with women.
B. Men plan evening entertainments for their wives.
C. Men and women have equal rights to go to parties.
D. Men plan evening entertainments for themselves, while their wives stay home.
70. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “insulting” in Para. 1 ?
A. 善意的 B.咨询的 C.商量的 D.无礼的
71. From the passage, we know that shaking head means Yes in _______.
A. India and Thailand B. India and Bulgaria
C. Bulgaria and Thailand D. Thailand and Japan
72. The underlined sentence “Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty.” means _________.
A. It’s probably that you are thirsty if you nod your head
B. You’re possibly eager to have a drink if you nod your head
C. You probably refuse to drink when you nod your head
D. You’d like to have a cup of tea because you nod your head
D
In spite of television and other means to pass information, newspaper is still an important source. No country in the world has more daily newspapers than the USA. There are over 2,000 of them. The quality of some American papers is very high and their views are quoted all over the world. Well-known dailies like Washington Post or New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country. Many people begin their day by reading the paper. In this way they learn what is going on in the world. Sometimes, however, they don’t have time to read the news carefully and must be satisfied with a quick look at the front page, at other times, they may be in such a hurry that they have time only for a glance at the headlines.
American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information. There are newspapers to satisfy all sorts of readers. Some newspapers are sensational（耸人听闻的）, which feature crime, sex and gossip; some are serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events. In bid cities there are many types of papers, with several different editions every day. In the small towns there are fewer newspapers and perhaps only one edition each day. In some areas the paper is even printed weekly.
Most newspapers have several sections, especially on Sundays when the section is larger than usual. There are, in addition to the front page with the most important news, the sports section and business page. Many of these newspapers print columns by well-known journalists of differing political and social views, in order to present a balanced picture.
Another type of publications which helps keep the population informed is magazines. Some magazines are published weekly, others are put on monthly. There are news magazines, and magazines for special interests as sports, photography and music. Some are for men, others are for women or for children. In the United States, you can find the right thing for every taste and interest.
73. In order to know what is happening in the world, ________.
A. people should read the whole newspaper carefully
B. people should read a newspaper as the first thing in the morning
C. one should at least have a quick look at the headlines

A. Americans can read more newspapers than those in other countries.
B. there are different newspapers even in a small town
C. people can read at least one newspaper each week

In an age when technology moves faster than most can keep up with, a small group of people still remain in the time of old-fashioned letters. Frankly speaking, I was once certain that traditional letters could never be replaced by other means of communication.
But a story about online communication changed my mind.
An old man, who suffered a lot from Parkinson’s disease, was not able to talk clearly and could hardly write his name. Living totally alone, he managed to keep in touch with nearly all the members of his family. How did he achieve this? He clicked out words on his computer keyboard.
I, therefore, managed to get an E-mail box as soon as the chance came. My life changed.
E-mail, and all online communication, is something truly different. It has capabilities (能力) that few other products can match.
E-mail is convenient. It takes less time with its fast speed and 24-hour connection. The slow postal service is no match. If you wouldn’t want to have a face-to-face talk with your manager, you might talk with him through E-mail even if you are in the same office.
Naming all the good things about online communication is not easy. But wait. E-mail can be inconvenient. It can waste time and energy. Just think what may happen when you take a short vacation and return to find your E-mail box filled with 200 unread messages. You could easily spend half a day clearing junk ads.
Then, online communication will keep us staying at our computer while it connects us to distant strangers. Once we throw ourselves into the machine, we may forget the human touches we once held so dear. I’m sure there is and always will be a place for the old-fashioned letter, phone call, and face-to-face meeting…even in the world of modern communication.
As I listen to the sound of the modem (调制解调器), I was excited at stepping out to the outside world but, at the same time, I sensed a loss of control over something valuable in my personal life.
77. What caused the writer to become interested in E-mail and online communication?
A. The sound of the modem. B. His own illness.
C. The changing of his life. D. A sick old man’s experience.
78. What does the writer think of online communication?
A. It should replace old-fashioned letters completely.
B. It is perfect and always does good to you.
C. It is extremely useful and convenient, but it may be inconvenient or even harmful.
D. It does more harm than good.
79. According to the writer, traditional means of communication will never disappear because ___________.
A. they are convenient and popular though they are slow
B. they help to keep the friendly relationship between people
C. most people cannot keep up with the development of technology
D. modern means of communication does too much harm
80. How did the sick old man keep in touch with his family members?
A. With the help of his computer.
B. By writing letters with his pen.
C. By making telephone calls.
D. By visiting them regularly

With the development of computer technology, the Internet has become more and more popular. Some students regard it as a great helper. Since there is a lot of information on line, you can surf the Internet for any information you need in a short time without working hard in the library. It is also very convenient to communicate with others by using the Internet. However, other students think that there is some information on line that is not good for the students. In addition, spending too much time playing games on line will not only have a bad effect on study but also do harm to our health. Therefore, we should make proper use of the Internet. It is of great importance for us to separate good plants from wild weeds.
