第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文， 从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

China has now mapped out plans for its next four launches in the Shenzhou program on the next flight. But one conclusion seems to have escaped most reports in the aerospace media. The flight of Shenzhou 7 could be timed to coincide with the Beijing Olympics. Plans for the 2008 Summer Olympics call for the

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 4 页 （共 77 页）

events to be held between the 8th and 24th of August. It's reasonable to expect that China will use the event to promote its achievements before the world, and human spaceflight is China's most significant recent breakthrough.

Shenzhou 7, China's next manned space mission, was originally advertised for 2007. This fit into the pattern of staging a two-year gap between crewed Shenzhou missions, which have previously launched in 2003 and 2005. But Chinese media statements have recently amended this to 2008. Chinese media have reported that while the overall program is going well, more time is needed to work on the spacesuit that will be used on this flight to stage China's first spacewalk. It's possible that Chinese engineers want to make best preparations for this complex mission.

China could intend to carry out the mission of Shenzhou 7 just as media attention is focused on the lead-up to the Olympics. The crew of the flight, and possibly China's other flown astronauts, could then take part in the opening ceremony. China has previously feted her space travellers in great celebrations, such as the Hong Kong event that saw Yang Liwei singing with actor Jacky Chan.

China has also suggested that the activity will be carried out by a single astronaut, and has indicated that half an hour is a rough estimate of the planned time for the spacewalk. China is apparently following suit, probably for the same reasons of conservative mission planning and safety.

41. From the first paragraph we can infer that ________. A. China hasn’t made its plan for the Beijing Olympics B. The new Shenzhou program are known to all the reporters C. China has planned to send up Shenzhou 7 in 2008

D. Beijing Olympics will be held during the flight of Shenzhou 7

42. China has decided to carry out its human spaceflight in 2008 in order to ______. A. make the Beijing Olympics more interesting B. show its great achievements to the world C. prove that China is a developed country D. introduce its science and technology to the world

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 5 页 （共 77 页）

43. Which one of the following is WRONG according to this passage? A. China sent its first manned spacecraft in October of 2003. B. Chinese engineers want to make more preparations for Shenzhou 7. C. The spacesuit for the flight of Shenzhou 7 hasn’t been prepared well. D. Two Chinese astronauts walked in space in 2003.

44. The underlined word ―amended‖ in the passage has a similar meaning to ______. A. improve C. expect

B. change D. decide

45. What would be the best title for this passage? A. The Beijing Olympics.

B. The Shenzhou Olympics. D. Spacewalk in 2008. B

Scientists have developed a water treatment system that they say is a powerful but simple way to save lives. Four grams of chemicals can treat ten liters of dirty water for a low cost, about ten cents.

Experts say infections from dirty water kill several thousand children in developing countries every day. The Procter and Gamble company has been developing the \since 1995. The company has been working with the United States Centers for Disease control and Prevention(C.D.C.).

C.D.C. researchers tested it in Guatemala, Pakistan and Kenya. Procter and Gamble researcher Greg Allgood says cases of diarrhea(腹泻) in those studies fell by about 50 percent. Researchers from Johns Hopkins University in Maryland tested the system at a refugee camp in Liberia. Mr. Allgood says that study found a reduction of more than 90 percent. Use of the system is being expanded worldwide.

The treatment contains bleach(漂白剂) to kill disease-causing organisms. It also contains something that dirt and other particles stick to. Mr. Allgood says the chemicals can remove lead and other dangerous metals and even agricultural poisons like D.D.T.

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 6 页 （共 77 页）

C. China’s Shenzhou Program.

Mr. Allgood heads the Children's Safe Drinking Water program at Procter and Gamble. He says about forty million packets of the treatment have been given to countries for free. They have been used in emergencies and in areas with limited supplies of clean water.

Clean water is a limited resource in many parts of the world. Delegates from about 130 nations attended the Fourth World Water Forum last month in Mexico City. Scientists, policy experts and others discussed ways to provide clean water to the world’s poor. Organizers say more than twenty percent of the world population lacks clean drinking water. The final declaration did not go so far as to declare water a human right. But it did say that governments, not private companies, must take the lead in improving the public’s ability to have clean water. 46. What is mainly talked about in this passage? A. Water pollution around the world. B. The causes of diarrhea in African countries. C. A newly developed water treatment system. D. The Fourth World Water Forum in Mexico City.

47. Which of the following developed the water treatment system? A. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. B. The Procter and Gamble Company and C.D.C. C. The Children’s Safe Drinking Water Program. D. Johns Hopkins University.

48. Which of the following about the new water treatment system is NOT true? A. It is effective but very expensive.

B. It was tested in Guatemala, Pakistan and Kenya. C. It is being expanded worldwide.

D. It can remove dangerous metals in the water.

49. Which of the following shows that the shortage of clean water is a serious problem?

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 7 页 （共 77 页）

Four grams of chemicals can treat liters of dirty water for a low cost. D. Infections from dirty water kill several thousand children every day. 50. The best title for this article is ______.

A. A Small Packet of Chemicals, a Big Effect on Dirty Water B. The Procter and Gamble Company and C.D.C. C. The Shortage of Clean Water D. How to Cure Diarrhea

C

Technology has utterly transformed our ability to communicate with each other. Linking to each other both literally and figuratively, many of us connect through cell phones, email, instant messaging, blogs, and networking web sites, yet we may be less connected to each other than we think.

According to a study, Americans are becoming increasingly socially isolated. The study reveals, for example, that one quarter of Americans say that they have no one to discuss important personal issues with, and that the number of close friends that American have has dropped from three to two. Meanwhile, the Boston Globe reports that this spreading isolation is experienced more sharply among those with less education, people of color, and older Americans. Unsurprisingly, those who are young, white, and well educated tend to have stronger social networks.

From my own experience I have to say that I’ve never felt more connected, thanks to a web of friends, family, and colleagues. One of my closest friends is someone I met through an online discussion group who lives hundreds of miles away from me. We have met face-to-face only twice, yet our regular electronic correspondence and cell phone calls sustain our close friendship. And, speaking of blogging, my blog has introduced me to people I would never have met otherwise and has led to enduring and important friendships.

On the other hand, I recently saw a scene unfold that proved to me how deeply

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 8 页 （共 77 页）

disconnected we as Americans have become. I had just wrapped up a presentation on mediation at a family therapy(治疗) center. As I was leaving, I noticed a mother and her teenage son who had just completed their session with their family therapist(临床医学家). After making their next appointment, they both took out their cell phones, placed calls, and began loud conversations with whoever was on the other end. I walked out behind them to the parking lot to my car. They both jumped into their SUV, and, as I saw them drive off, they were still talking on their cell phones.

But, alas, not to each other.

51. What does the passage lead you to believe? A. Americans are more socially connected today. B. Americans are more socially isolated today. C. Technology plays a bigger role in American society. D. Americans don’t make good use of technology.

52. Which of the following has nothing to do with the isolation among Americans? A. Age.

B. Education.

C. Skin color.

D. Sex.

53. The author himself _______.

A. has a wider range of friends because of technology B. has failed to take advantage of technology C. can only find true friendship through the Internet D. can’t make true friends in actual life

54. What is true about the mother and son in the passage? A. They came for therapy in the same car. B. They were quite close to each other.

C. There was not much communication between them. D. They preferred talking to each other on cell phones. 55. The author probably feels ________ with the mother and son. A. puzzled

B. disappointed

C. amused

D. surprised

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 16 页 （共 77 页）

What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career.

A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is

important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.

Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work.. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.

Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic(认错的) about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work. 41．What is the passage mainly about?

A．The importance of working hard at school. B．Choosing a career according to one’s strengths. C．How to face one’s weakness.

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 17 页 （共 77 页）

43．From the passage we learn that if a student’s school performance is not good, he

44. The underlined phrase ―be all thumbs‖ (in Para. 3) probably means ―_______‖.

A．make full use of one’s own weak points B．study harder for a new school record C．apologize for one’s own school record D．face one’s own weak points bravely

Four in 10 Chinese complain about the great gap between large investments in education and its returns, a recent nationwide survey has showed.

The Horizon Research Consultancy Group polled 3,355 residents aged 16 to 60 in both urban and rural areas, including Beijing and Shanghai.

The survey found that only 16 percent of respondents believed their investments on education gave good returns.

Those with higher education voiced greater disappointment at the quality of

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 18 页 （共 77 页）

education received, the survey showed.

People in the rural areas generally gave more positive feedback（反馈）on the quality of education than those from the cities, the survey found.

\education has been focusing on an examination-oriented system,\Huo Qingwen, the deputy director of language education testing service center under the Beijing Foreign Studies University, told China Daily yesterday.

\the students, but also from the teachers who have been asked to focus more about the exam-passing rate,\

\job market is still hungry for talented staff, but many graduates are not competent(胜任的) because the posts require more practical experience and creative ability of workers,\

Most university graduates prefer jobs in large cities, causing an imbalance in human resources between urban and rural areas, Hong said.

The graduates would get better job options if they chose to work at the grassroots (基础的) level because of the government's preferential policies, including the waiving of tuition for those willing to work in the country's rural and western regions, he added.

About 580,000 graduates last year found county- or village-level jobs, and more than 550,000 got jobs in the central and western regions, Ministry of Education figures showed.

\many graduates focus only on jobs with high salaries and that are directly relevant to their specialties, they miss other good work opportunities,\Xiang, a Beijing graduate who works as an English teacher in a college located at a remote area in Yunnan province, said.

The recent survey showed that education costs form one-quarter of an urban family's income, while it forms one-third of a rural family's income. 46．According to the passage, most people think that _______

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 19 页 （共 77 页）

A. the investments in education gave them good returns. B. the investments in education don’t bring them good results. C. college students are satisfied with their the education received.

D. People in the cities are more satisfied with the quality of education than those in the rural areas.

47．Which of the following is NOT mentioned?

A. China’s education has been focusing on an examination-oriented system . B. Both the teachers and students are asked to pay more attention to the

exam-passing rate. C. The job market now does not lack university graduates. D. Most university graduates enjoy hunting jobs in large cities.

48. What would happen to the graduates if they chose to work at the grassroots level?

A. They would get higher salaries. C. Their tuition would be free.

B. They would get lower salaries. D. They would get better job choices.

49. How much does the education cost according to the survey ?

A. One-third of a family's income. B. one-quarter of a rural family's income. C. 25% of an urban family's income. D. Three in ten a rural family's income.

50. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage.

A. The gap between investments in education and its returns B. Education and university graduates C. China’s higher education D. Education costs

Billy Joe Saunders is aiming for boxing gold at the Beijing Olympics but may have created history already.

As far as he knows, the 18-year-old welterweight from Hatfield is the first person from the Romany Gypsy community to qualify for an Olympic Games.

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 20 页 （共 77 页）

Billy Joe clinched （最终获得）his place at a qualifying event in Italy earlier this month and is one of seven boxers to make Team GB for Beijing.

Billy Joe Saunders is not the only British boxer with genuine（真的）medal prospects for Beijing, but his background has to be the most fascinating.

He comes from the Romany Gypsy community and lives on a caravan site near Hatfield in Hertfordshire.

Boxing runs deep in the Saunders family, who are immensely proud of their heritage.

His brother Tommy is a professional（职业的）, while his Dad Tom was an amateur and his great, great grandfather, the wonderfully named Absolom Beeny, now aged 96, used to make his living fighting in the old boxing booth at fairgrounds.

Billy Joe admits he has heard all the stories a hundred times, but once he and his brother had visited the local boxing club, he was hooked.

\something to do\

His background may be colorful, but make no mistake, Billy Joe Saunders is one very special boxer.

As a boy he wasn't the most naturally gifted, but had an inner toughness that set him apart from other fighters.

His trainer, Danny Hoy, said: \against much older boys, I thought this kid is not the same as anyone else. There is something with this kid\

It is that something which made Billy Joe a real prospect for London 2012, so qualification for Beijing means he is effectively four years ahead of schedule.

He remembers watching Amir Khan win silver in Athens four years ago, and wants to go one better. \

51．Where did Billy clinch his place as a boxer to make Team GB for Beijing.

A. At Beijing

B. At Romany Gypsy community

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 21 页 （共 77 页）

C. In Italy D. In Britain

52．The underlined word \

A. a person who takes part in boxing only for pleasure B. a person who takes part in boxing as his job C. a coach who teaches boxing D. a player who takes part in baseball

53．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Billy’s brother is a professional boxer. B. Absolom’s son is not a professional boxer. C. Billy was very interested in the local boxing club.

D. Billy was the most naturally gifted when he was still a very young boy. 54．It can be inferred from the passage that________

A. His coach thought Billy was gifted to be a boxer when he saw Billy’s boots against older boys.

B. It was Boxing that has kept Billy off the streets. C. Billy won a silver medal in Athens Olympic Games..

D. Billy will compete in Beijing Olympic Games four years ahead of his trainer’s schedule.

55．What is Billy hoping to win in Beijing Olympic Games?

A. A silver medal for boxing C. A piece of gold

B. A gold medal for boxing D. A copper medal

Friendship with oneself is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

We often focus on building relationships with others that we forget the essential first step: being friends of ourselves. That is the crucial first step if we are to have good relationships with others. How can we have good relationships with others if we don’t even have good relationship with ourselves?

Here are some tips: 1. Forgive yourself

You may have made those mistakes in the past, but is there anything you can do about them? I don’t think so, except learning from them. It’s true that you are not perfect, but neither is everybody else. It’s normal to make mistakes, so do yourself a favor by giving yourself forgiveness. 2. Focus on your strengths

Instead of focusing on your weaknesses, focus on your strengths. You always have some strengths which give you a unique combination nobody else have. Recognize your strengths and build your life around them. 3. Stop comparing yourself with others

You are unique. You can never be like other people, and neither can other people be like you. The way you measure your success is not determined by other people and what they achieve. Instead, it is determined by your own life purpose. You have everything you need to achieve your life purpose, so it’s useless to compare yourself with others.

Turning on the TV, a wonderful scene comes to your eyes — a group of men, tall, strong and handsome, and women, young, beautiful and attractive, too. Together they eat in the finest restaurants, traveling everywhere around the world by luxurious planes and pleasure ships. They are models.

Do you envy them? What sort of life are models leading? Is it a wonderful life for a young lady or a young man?

A few models are well-known actors or actresses who can make a lot of money only by showing themselves off in commercials. But the majority of them are just curious to see what it is like. They’d like to be models just because they are attracted by what they imagine — models earn a lot of money and lead a glorious life. This is true for those who are very successful. However, most models find it difficult to get work. Very few can earn enough to live on, and for all models their expenses are high. Their agents claim about 20% of the earnings, and no model will get very far without a clever agent. Besides, they have to buy good clothing. They also have to pay to travel to interviews and reach the places where the work is to be done.

Interviews for a model job are known as cattle-markets in the modeling world, and not without a good reason. A top model can choose his or her work, demand and receive high fees and has his or her expenses paid. But for most models, the situation is quite different. And agent or employer inspects each model much as a farmer inspects cattle at a market. Intelligence, qualifications and personal characteristics count for little against good looks and tight figures. For all except the very few lucky ones, the life of a model is a continual search for work, trying to sell

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 28 页 （共 77 页）

himself or herself in the face of fierce competition and, sometimes, not particularly moral standards on the part of some employers.

Immigration officials at airport look suspiciously at a girl whose passport shows her occupation as ―Model‖, and these are men and women of considerable experience of the world. It comes no surprise to find that some models prefer to put ―Secretary‖ or ―Businessman‖ as their jobs in their passports.

Modeling is a changeable world with great rewards for a tiny minority but not for the majority.

26. For models, their good looks and tight figures are _____________, compared with their

intelligence and qualifications. A. more important

C. less essential

less needed more looked down upon

27. Which of the following can lead you to believe according to the passage? A. A model’s traveling expenses are usually paid by his employer. B. To be a model, good looks are the most important qualification. C. Most models have a fairly easy way of life with high pay. D. A model can hardly be successful without a good agent.

28. Models often put ―Secretary‖ or ―Businessman‖ instead of ―Model‖ in their passports

because __________________.

A. they want to avoid being stopped to sign their names by fans

B. a person with the occupation of a model is easily attacked by black societies C. models are sometimes looked down upon

D. secretaries and businessmen are free of custom duty 29. What may be the author’s attitude towards modeling? A. It is a worthwhile life for a young lady or a young man. B. He is in favor of young people to try modeling.

C. Before being crazy about a model job, young people should be aware of the difficulties. D. It is a field in which everyone has a great chance to succeed.

Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general．Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?

Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian(百姓的) clothes．People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform．The television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes．Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform．What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity(身份) than to step out of uniform?

Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible(可减税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.

Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them．Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement．When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.

Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems．Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes．Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.

31. It is surprising that Americans who worship variety and individuality _______. A. still judge a man by his clothes B. hold the uniform in such high regard C. enjoy having a professional identity

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 30 页 （共 77 页）

D. will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform 32. People are accustomed to think that a man in uniform _______. A. suggests quality work B. discards his social identity

C. appears to be more practical D. looks superior to a person in civilian clothes 33. The chief function of a uniform is to _______. A. provide practical benefits to the wearer B. make the wearer catch the public eye C. inspire the wearer’s confidence in himself D. provide the wearer with a professional

34 According to the passage, people wearing uniforms _______. A. are usually helpful B. have little or no individual freedom C. tend to lose their individuality D. enjoy greater popularity

35. The best title for this passage would be _______. A. Uniforms and Society B. The Importance of Wearing a Uniform C. Practical Benefits of Wearing a Uniform D. Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms

C

One of the strongest arguments for the raising of the school leaving age (ROSLA) has been that it will bring us some way nearer to ―equality of opportunity‖.

Many people like to think of our present system of schooling as providing plenty of steps up the ladder of success for clever children. It would be good to think that no one who is really bright can be missed out when the state system is obviously so complete. It is obvious, for instance, that many children from less wealthy homes reach university or do well in other ways.

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 31 页 （共 77 页）

Unfortunately, we now have plenty of proofs that many children of every level of ability do much less well than they could. For instance, during the years of national military service it was possible to test the intelligence of all male 18-to-20-year-old. Half of those soldiers who were placed in the two highest ability groups had left school at 15.

It has also been shown that the percentage of working class children going to university is almost the same now as it was in 1939. One study of 5000 children from birth to 21 years old shows that up to half the bright pupils from working class homes left school when they reached 16 years old. Moreover, there is no difference in intelligence between the sexes, but far more boys than girls stay in education after 16.

It is clear from this and many other proofs that many children are still leaving school too early to benefit from the prizes — money, social respectability, and interesting jobs — which higher education gives. It is clear too that the reasons why such children leave have much to do with their social background. Their parents often need the extra money another money-earner would bring in; they don’t value education for itself because their own was probably dull and unhappy. It is not so much that they force their sons and daughters to leave school, rather than they tend to say, ―It’s up to you.‖

36. It is hoped that ROSLA will give all children _____________. A. a more enjoyable time at school B. the same chances in society  C. the right to a better school D. higher scores in intelligence tests

37. People would like to think that _____________.

A. equal numbers of poor and wealthy children reach university B. those with the least money get the best education C. intelligent children are always selected by the system D. only really clever children do well

38. Working class children are thought to be at a disadvantage because _____________. A. many of the clever ones leave school early

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 32 页 （共 77 页）

B. fewer go to university than ever before C. more than half leave school when they are 16 D. fewer boys than girls stay at school after 16

39. Many children leave school early because _____________. A. their social background makes them unhappy B. they have to give something to their family’s income C. their school is a dull and unhappy place

D. their parents don’t allow them to make their own decisions

40. This article shows that equal opportunity in education _____________. A. is a thing of the past B. has not yet been achieved

C. is there for those who deserve it D. has greatly improved our society

If English means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven’t you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?

According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.

The study also found the effect is greater, the younger people learn a second language. A team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of ―early bilinguals‖ who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.

Scans showed that grey matter density(密度)in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference.______

广东高考英语模拟试题卷（一） 第 33 页 （共 77 页）

―Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,‖ said the scientists.

It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.

Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills. ―Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(灵活的),‖he said. ―You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.‖

The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and 34. Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better. ―Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,‖ explained the scientists. 41.
