第二部分: 阅读理解 (共25小题; 每小题2分, 满分50分)
第一节: 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.
A
Every year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for its stadium and theatres, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii's people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2000 years.
Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22,000 people. Italy was at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grasscovered volcano. Mount Vesuvius had not erupted for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But they were not.
In August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded, and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two days later, Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead.
For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly, carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all, there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. Many glasses and jars had some dark blue color in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread, too; metal bread pans were even in bakery. In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread-a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny powder tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup(眼部化妆品).
Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii.
41. Why do large numbers of people come to Pompeii each year?
A. To visit the volcano. B. To shop and eat there.
C. To watch sports and plays. D. To see how Pompeiians lived.
42. Why had so many Pompeiians remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius?
A. The city nearby offered all kinds of fun.
B. The area produced the finest wine in Italy.
C. Few people expected the volcano to erupt again.
D. The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass.
43. Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79?
A. Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully.
B. Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched.
C. Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects.
D. Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted.
44. What do we know about the Pompeiians who lived 2000 years ago?
A. They lived more or less the same as Italians now do.
B. They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup.
C. They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking and eating.
D. They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79.
B
Television has opened windows in everybody's life. Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.
Television has also changed politics. The most remote(偏僻的）can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, he is more likely to vote, and so to make his opinion count.
Unfortunately, television's influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world, that TV advertisement lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe and want to practice what they see. They do believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable.
All educators agree that the "television generation" are more violent than their parents and grandparents. Also, the young are less patient. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures, to read a book that requires thinking, to listen to a teacher who doesn't do funny things like the people on children's programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That’s the time it takes on the screen.
45. In the past, many young people .
A. knew the effect of war B. went in for politics
C. were willing to be soldiers D. liked to save the wounded in wars
46. The author thinks that TV advertisements .
| A. are not reliable on the whole | B. are useless to people |
|
| C. are a good guide to adults | D. are very harmful to the young | |
47. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. People have become used to crimes now.
B. With a TV set some problems can be solved quickly.
C. People now like to read books with pictures.
D. The adults are less violent than the young.
48. From the passage, we can conclude that .
A. Children should keep away from TV B. TV programs should be improved
C. Children’s books should have pictures D. TV has a deep effect on the young
C
One type of the fish is named salmon. There are many different kinds of salmon, but almost all of them mate in a very strange way. They are born in small, fresh water rivers. They live in the river for a year, and then swim downstream to a bigger river and eventually to the ocean. In the saltwater, they eat constantly and grow very quickly. While they live in the ocean, salmon are silver colored.
After several years at sea, the salmon grow very long and heavy. Then, as if by magic, they all begin to swim home. Each salmon somehow remembers where it was born and swims to the very same area in the small river.
It is a long, difficult journey home. Once the salmon enter freshwater, they stop eating. They also change colors. Some salmon turn red, others brown and grey, and some turn pink. Some salmon grow a large bulge on their back, called a hump. These salmon fight to swim upstream against the current of sometimes very powerful rivers. They jump over waterfalls and have to avoid bears, birds, and fishermen.
Finally, the salmon that survive mate in the same river in which they were born. Then, after all that work, they die! These salmon still play an important role. Their dead bodies help to provide nutrition to the animals that live in and around the river. When their eggs hatch, the cycle will start again.
49. In pararaph2, the clause “ as if by magic” suggests that_________.
A. a magician helps salmon
B. nobody knows how salmon find their way home
C. the author doesn’t know much about salmon
D. salmon are magic
50.Which of the following do salmon not do when they reenter freshwater?
| A. they change colors. | B. they stop eating. |
| C. they grow bulges on their backs. | D. they grow teeth. |
51. Inferring from the passage, why do salmon eat a lot while they are in the ocean?
Because__________.
A. they need to have enough energy to return home
B. they never stop swimming
C. they are afraid of bears
D. the different water makes them hungry
52. Salmon return to fresh water in order to__________.
A. mate
B. provide nutrition to other animals
C. mate and provide nutrition to other animals
D. make a difficult journey
D
Maybe ten-year-old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father, “ But, Dad, you can’t be healthy if you’re dead.”
Dad, in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run, had forgotten to wear his safety belt-- a mistake 75% of the US population make every day. The big question is why.
There have been many myths about safety belts ever since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago. The following are three of the most common.
Myth Number One: It’s best to be “ thrown clear” of a serious accident.
Truth: Sorry, but any accident serious enough to “ throw you clear” is also going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing. And chances are you’ll have traveled through a windshield(挡风玻璃) or door to do it. Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times greater in cases where people are “ thrown clear.”
Myth Number Two: Safety belts “ trap” people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.
Truth: Sorry again, but studies show that people knocked unconscious(昏迷) due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents. People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situations, not to be trapped in them.
Myth Number Three: Safety belts are not needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour(mph).
Truth: when two cars traveling at 30 mph hit each other, an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to driving headfirst into the ground from a height of 10 meters.
53. Why did Elizabeth say to her father, “But Dad, you can’t be healthy if you’re dead”?
| A. He was driving at great speed. | B. He was running across the street. |
| C. He didn’t have his safety belt on. | D. He didn’t take his medicine on time. |
54. According to the text, to be “thrown clear” of a serious accident is very dangerous because you________.
A. may be knocked down by other cars
B. may get seriously hurt being thrown out of the car
C. may find it impossible to get away from the seat
D. may get caught in the car door
55. Some people prefer to drive without wearing a safety belt because they believe_______.
A. the belt prevents them from escaping in an accident
B. they will be unable to think clearly in an accident
C. they will be caught when help comes
D. cars catch fire easily
56. What is the advice given in the text?
A. Never drive faster than 30 miles an hour.
B. Try your best to save yourself in a car accident.
C. Never forget to wear safety belt while driving.
D. Drive slowly while you’re not wearing a safety belt.

The best advice young men and women can hear these days is not “ Get Rich”. It’s “ Go West”.
Those who hope to make their fortunes or, at the very least, find good jobs or life long careers have a better chance of doing so in china’s western provinces than in the increasingly crowded eastern cities. Along the eastern coast, cities are filled with newcomers looking for work. They seek anything from the lowest – level unskilled jobs to the instant – millionaire Internet chance of lifetime. Few have found the latter, and few ever will.
Some 160 years ago, young men and women streamed into New York, Philadelphia, Boston—the united states’ equivalent of China’s Shanghai, Guangzhou and Beijing. All of these young people were searching for work, for riches, for fame. Few found any of that. The rest joined the masses working hard at low-level jobs trying to support themselves and their families.
Horace Greeley, a well-known American newspaper editor of the period had sound advice for those seeking work. “Do not,” Greeley said, “ lounge( to stand or sit in a lazy manner) in the cities! There is room and health in the country, away from the crowds of idles( people who waste time doing nothing ) and imbeciles ( a person of weak mind). Go west…”
In the mid-19th century, when Greeley issued his call to go west, America was about to develop its western regions- much as China is today. Out west, the unemployed could find jobs.
What was needed then in the America West is what is needed now in China’s western regions; men and women with determination to make something of themselves, men and women with skills any developing nation must have to survive and prosper.
It has nothing to do with the Internet. It has nothing to do with becoming a movie star, pop music idol, or a Bill Gates clone. It has everything to do with reality.
57. Why does the author think “ Go West” is the best advice for young people in China?
A. If they go west, they are sure to get rich.
B. China’s west is richer than its east.
C. Eastern cities are too crowded to live in.
D. There are more chances of success there than in the east.
58. The author mentions young America of the 19th century because__________.
A. he wants young Chinese to learn from them
B. he tries to show how they succeeded in the eastern cities
C. they were poor examples for today’s young Chinese to follow
D. most of them preferred to work in the west
59. The underlined word “ sound” in the 4th paragraph means__________.
| A. what may be heard | B. seem when heard |
| C. produce a sound | D. based on truth or good judgment |
60. What is needed in China’s west now according to the writer?
A. The Internet. B. Movie stars. C. People with skills. D. Pop music idols.

Dear Mr. Li,
Last Sunday, I went to do some reading in your library. Over the time I was there, I found something unpleasant. Therefore, I’d like to voice my opinions, which, I hope, would be of help for you to create a more comfortable place for readers.
First, there are few new books on the shelves, and most books are not popular today. Second, some books are not sorted in proper order, making it difficult for readers to find what they want quickly. Third, the assistants didn’t offer good service. Instead, they were chatting. In addition, they took no notice of the fact that a light wasn’t working. Leave this state of affairs to stay the same, and I’m afraid there will be fewer and fewer readers in your library.
So, for the sake of readers, I suggest that you change all these as soon as possible.
Yours,
Li Hua
