第三部分 閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分，滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文，從每題的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出選項。
A
I needed to get some money during my winter holidays.So after Christmas I took a job in the clothes department at Graham’s for the first fortnight of the January sale.I can’t say that I enjoyed it,but it was an experience I’ll never forget.
I could never understand why there were so many things in the sales;where did they all come from?Now I know the secret! Firstly,there is the special winter stock(貨物)and the stock that people buy all the year round;some of these things are slightly reduced.Secondly,there are the summer clothes they couldn’t sell last year,these are heavily reduced to clear them.Thirdly,there are cheap clothes bought in specially for the sales;these are put out at high prices ten days before the sale begins and then are reduced by 60% in the sale.Clever! Later,they buy in “seconds” (clothes not in perfect condition) for the sale and they are sold very cheaply.
When I arrived half an hour before opening on the first day of the sale,there was already a queue around three sides of the building.This made me very nervous.
When the big moment arrived to open the doors,the security guards,looking less confident than usual,came up to them,keys in hand.The moment they had unlocked the doors,they hid behind the doors for protection as the noisy crowd charged in.I couldn’t believe my eyes;this wasn’t shopping,it was a battlefield! One poor lady couldn’t keep her feet and was knocked over by people pushing from behind.
Clothes were flying in all directions as people searched for the sizes,colors and styles they wanted.Quarrels broke out.Mothers were using their small children to crawl through people’s legs and get hold of things they couldn’t get near themselves.
Within minutes I had half a dozen people pushing clothes under my nose,each wanting to be the first served.Where had the famous English Queue gone?The whole day continued like that,but I kept my temper (脾氣)!I was taking money hand over fist and began to realize why,twice a year,Graham’s were happy to turn their expensive store into a battlefield like this.
In the sale fever,people were spending money like water without thinking whether they needed what they were buying.As long as it was a bargain it was OK.
You won’t believe this but as soon as I got home I crashed out for four hours.Then I had dinner and went back to bed,fearing the sound of the alarm which would tell me to get ready for the second day of the sale.
56.What kind of clothes is likely to be sold 5% cheaper?
A.Last summer’s clothes.
B.Clothes not in perfect condition.
C.Clothes bought in specially for the sales.
D.Clothes for winter.
解析：由第二段“Firstly,there is the special winter stock(貨物)and the stock that people buy all the year round;some of these things are slightly reduced.”可知 5%即為slightly reduce。
答案：D
57.Which of the following statements is true?
A.The customers gave up the queuing,for which the English are famous.
B.The customers kept their temper while looking for clothes they wanted.
C.Small children enjoyed crawling through people’s legs.
D.The security guards were fearless of the crowd.
解析：根據(jù)該句“Where had the famous English Queue?”可知。
答案：A
58.In the author’s opinion,why were Graham’s happy to make their expensive store into a “battlefield”?
A.There were too many clothes and they wanted to clear them in the sales.
B.They were eager to show that they were clever at doing business.
C.They could take the chance to raise the prices of all their clothes.
D.They wanted to make more money by having sales.
解析：根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第三段可知。
答案：D
59.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Best Bargain
B.Hunting for a Job
C.Sale Fever
D.A Pleasant Fortnight
解析：通篇文章介紹的都是在假期內有關大甩賣的事，故而選C。
答案：C
B
A holiday is any day when people lay aside their ordinary duties and cares.The word comes from Old English.At first,holidays honored some holy event or person.People in Great Britain and other countries speak of holidays as Americans speak of vacations.
Every nation has its special holidays.China observes New Year’s Day(January 1),May Day and National as legal holidays,as it was on Oct.1,1949 that People’s Republic of China was founded.The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.In the United States,congress has declared several as legal days such as New Year’s Day (January 1);Martin Luther King,Jr’s Birthday;Washington’s Birthday; Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day and so on.Some holidays celebrate special events in the development of a country,such as Greece’s Independence Day;Italy’s Liberation Day and India’s Independence Day.
In the States,banks and schools usually close on a legal holiday.When such a holiday falls on Sunday,the following Monday is usually observed. Schools and organizations often observe days known as traditional holidays,although schools and business do not close then.Those holidays include Valentine’s Day and Halloween.
60.Which of the following holidays has nothing to do with a country’s development?
A.China’s National Day
B.Valentine’s Day
C.Italy’s Liberty Day
D.America’s Independence Day

答案：B
61.From the passage we can infer that _______.
A.Chinese will no longer observe the Spring Festival
B.students don’t have to go to school on any holiday
C.Chinese and Americans share at least one holiday
D.Americans can easily draw money from the banks on legal days
解析：這是一道推斷題，先排除B項和D項，因為學生不是在任何節(jié)日都不上學，銀行在法定節(jié)日休班，而中國和美國都過新年(New Year’s Day)。
答案：C
62.In the sentence “China observes New Year’s Day(January 1)”,“observe” means _____.
A.praise
B.spend
C.celebrate
D.care
解析：這是一道詞義猜測題，下文中“The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.”提到。所以表示“慶?！薄?BR> 答案：CC
X-rays were first discovered by a German scientist,Wilhelm Konrad Rontgen,in 1895,almost by accident.He and several other scientists were experimenting with passing electric currents through certain gases in a special glass tube from which the air had been moved.One day Rontgen noticed that,even when the tube was covered with black paper,some strange kind of radiation was coming through and making a screen nearby glow.Ronghen could not see anything coming out of the tube,but then he discovered that if he put the screen in the next room on the other side of a closed door,the rays could pass not only through black paper but also through wood.
The next thing he found out was that if he put his hand between the rays and a photographic plate,the rays would print a shadow of the bony framework of his hand on the plate.In fact,the rays could pass as easily through the fleshy part of his hand as through the black paper,but hardly at all through the bone.So Rontgen made the first Xray picture of a hand,showing just how the bones in the hand fit together.
63.What puzzled Rontgen one day during his experiment was _______.
A.some passing electric current
B.some radiation coming through the covered tube
C.the black-paper-covered tube
D.the screen nearby
解析：據(jù)第一段后半部分所描述內容可推知 “一些奇怪的射線冒出來”，使附近的熒光屏發(fā)光，但Rontgen看不見有東西冒出來，這當然會使他迷惑不解。
答案：B
64.The screen didn’t stop glowing even when _______.
A.it was moved to the next room
B.it was moved to the other side of the room
C.the door was closed
D.the black paper was moved from the tube
解析：文中談到:當把熒光屏搬到隔壁去，射線仍然能穿過黑紙及木塊來使熒光屏發(fā)光。
答案：A
65.The rays proved to be incapable of passing through _______.
A.wood
B.flesh
C.bone
D.black paper
解析：從第二段倒數(shù)第二句得到答案。
答案：C
66.Form the passage,we know X-rays are .
A.invisible
B.changeable
C.white
D.bright
解析：invisible “看不見的”,與題意相符。
答案：A
D
Years ago,when I started looking for my first job,wise advisers advised,“Barbara,be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.” How right they were!
“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” Wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough.It is the inner voice that whispers,“I can do it!” When others shout,“No,you can’t” It took years and years for the early work of Barbara Mclintock,a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine,to be generally accepted.Yet she didn’t stop working on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
We are all born with wide-eyed,enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air,whatever their age.At 90,cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach.As the music flowed through his fingers,his stooped shoulders would straighten and joy would reappear in his eyes.As author and poet Samuel Ulaman once wrote,“Years wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”
Enthusiastic people also love what they do,regardless of money or title or power.Patricia Mcllrath,retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Lamsas City,was once asked where she got her enthusiasm.She replied,“My father,a lawyer,long ago told me,I never made a dime until I stopped working for money.”
If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career,we can as a hobby,Elizabeth Layton of Wellsville,Kan,was 68 before she began to draw.This activity ended periods of depression that had troubled her for at least 30 years,and the quality of her work led one critic say,“I am tempted to call Layton a genius.”
We can’t afford to waste tears on “might-have-beens”.We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after “what-can-be”.We need to live each moment whole heartedly,with all our senses-finding pleasure in the sweet smell of a backyard garden,the simple picture of a six-year-old,the beauty of a rainbow.
67. The author holds the view that ______.
A.enthusiastic people will never get old
B.enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life
C.enthusiasm is more important than experience
D.enthusiasm can give people more success and fame
解析：總結全文可得結論:熱情不僅對我們的工作而且對我們的生活都會產生積極的影響。
答案： B
68.Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?
A.Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.
B.If you don’t have enthusiasm,you can achieve nothing.
C.Enthusiastic people never consider money and fame.
D.Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.
解析：文章第二段通過基因學家Barbara McClintock的例子說明有了熱情人們就不會在逆境中屈服、放棄。

第三部分 閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分，滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文，從每題的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出選項。
A
I needed to get some money during my winter holidays.So after Christmas I took a job in the clothes department at Graham’s for the first fortnight of the January sale.I can’t say that I enjoyed it,but it was an experience I’ll never forget.
I could never understand why there were so many things in the sales;where did they all come from?Now I know the secret! Firstly,there is the special winter stock(貨物)and the stock that people buy all the year round;some of these things are slightly reduced.Secondly,there are the summer clothes they couldn’t sell last year,these are heavily reduced to clear them.Thirdly,there are cheap clothes bought in specially for the sales;these are put out at high prices ten days before the sale begins and then are reduced by 60% in the sale.Clever! Later,they buy in “seconds” (clothes not in perfect condition) for the sale and they are sold very cheaply.
When I arrived half an hour before opening on the first day of the sale,there was already a queue around three sides of the building.This made me very nervous.
When the big moment arrived to open the doors,the security guards,looking less confident than usual,came up to them,keys in hand.The moment they had unlocked the doors,they hid behind the doors for protection as the noisy crowd charged in.I couldn’t believe my eyes;this wasn’t shopping,it was a battlefield! One poor lady couldn’t keep her feet and was knocked over by people pushing from behind.
Clothes were flying in all directions as people searched for the sizes,colors and styles they wanted.Quarrels broke out.Mothers were using their small children to crawl through people’s legs and get hold of things they couldn’t get near themselves.
Within minutes I had half a dozen people pushing clothes under my nose,each wanting to be the first served.Where had the famous English Queue gone?The whole day continued like that,but I kept my temper (脾氣)!I was taking money hand over fist and began to realize why,twice a year,Graham’s were happy to turn their expensive store into a battlefield like this.
In the sale fever,people were spending money like water without thinking whether they needed what they were buying.As long as it was a bargain it was OK.
You won’t believe this but as soon as I got home I crashed out for four hours.Then I had dinner and went back to bed,fearing the sound of the alarm which would tell me to get ready for the second day of the sale.
56.What kind of clothes is likely to be sold 5% cheaper?
A.Last summer’s clothes.
B.Clothes not in perfect condition.
C.Clothes bought in specially for the sales.
D.Clothes for winter.

A holiday is any day when people lay aside their ordinary duties and cares.The word comes from Old English.At first,holidays honored some holy event or person.People in Great Britain and other countries speak of holidays as Americans speak of vacations.

In the States,banks and schools usually close on a legal holiday.When such a holiday falls on Sunday,the following Monday is usually observed.

X-rays were first discovered by a German scientist,Wilhelm Konrad Rontgen,in 1895,almost by accident.He and several other scientists were experimenting with passing electric currents through certain gases in a special glass tube from which the air had been moved.One day Rontgen noticed that,even when the tube was covered with black paper,some strange kind of radiation was coming through and making a screen nearby glow.Ronghen could not see anything coming out of the tube,but then he discovered that if he put the screen in the next room on the other side of a closed door,the rays could pass not only through black paper but also through wood.
The next thing he found out was that if he put his hand between the rays and a photographic plate,the rays would print a shadow of the bony framework of his hand on the plate.In fact,the rays could pass as easily through the fleshy part of his hand as through the black paper,but hardly at all through the bone.So Rontgen made the first Xray picture of a hand,showing just how the bones in the hand fit together.
63.What puzzled Rontgen one day during his experiment was _______.
A.some passing electric current
B.some radiation coming through the covered tube
C.the black-paper-covered tube
D.the screen nearby

答案：B
64.The screen didn’t stop glowing even when _______.
A.it was moved to the next room
B.it was moved to the other side of the room
C.the door was closed
D.the black paper was moved from the tube

答案：A
65.The rays proved to be incapable of passing through _______.
A.wood
B.flesh

解析：從第二段倒數(shù)第二句得到答案。
答案：C
66.Form the passage,we know X-rays are .

B.changeable
C.white
D.bright
解析：invisible “看不見的”,與題意相符。
答案：A
D
Years ago,when I started looking for my first job,wise advisers advised,“Barbara,be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.” How right they were!
“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” Wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough.It is the inner voice that whispers,“I can do it!” When others shout,“No,you can’t” It took years and years for the early work of Barbara Mclintock,a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine,to be generally accepted.Yet she didn’t stop working on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
We are all born with wide-eyed,enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air,whatever their age.At 90,cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach.As the music flowed through his fingers,his stooped shoulders would straighten and joy would reappear in his eyes.As author and poet Samuel Ulaman once wrote,“Years wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”
Enthusiastic people also love what they do,regardless of money or title or power.Patricia Mcllrath,retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Lamsas City,was once asked where she got her enthusiasm.She replied,“My father,a lawyer,long ago told me,I never made a dime until I stopped working for money.”
If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career,we can as a hobby,Elizabeth Layton of Wellsville,Kan,was 68 before she began to draw.This activity ended periods of depression that had troubled her for at least 30 years,and the quality of her work led one critic say,“I am tempted to call Layton a genius.”
We can’t afford to waste tears on “might-have-beens”.We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after “what-can-be”.We need to live each moment whole heartedly,with all our senses-finding pleasure in the sweet smell of a backyard garden,the simple picture of a six-year-old,the beauty of a rainbow.
67. The author holds the view that ______.
A.enthusiastic people will never get old
B.enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life
C.enthusiasm is more important than experience
D.enthusiasm can give people more success and fame
解析：總結全文可得結論:熱情不僅對我們的工作而且對我們的生活都會產生積極的影響。
答案： B
68.Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?
A.Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.
B.If you don’t have enthusiasm,you can achieve nothing.
C.Enthusiastic people never consider money and fame.
D.Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.
解析：文章第二段通過基因學家Barbara McClintock的例子說明有了熱情人們就不會在逆境中屈服、放棄。
答案：B
