第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的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

Usually, when your teacher asks a question, there is only one correct answer．But there is one question that has millions of current answers．That question is “What s your name?” Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct．

Have you ever wondered about people s names? Where do they come from? What do they mean?

People s first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents．Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used．Some parents choose the name of a well-known person．A boy could be named George Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones．

Some people give their children names that mean good things．Clara means “bright”; Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”; Donald means “world ruler”; Leonard means “as brave as a lion”．

The earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names．A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near brook（小溪）；someone who was called Longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road．The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest．

Other early surnames came from people s occupations．The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals．In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village．Some other occupational names are: Carter — a person who owned or drove a cart; Potter —a person who made pots and pans．

The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village．The Carpenter s great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture．

Sometimes people were known for the color of their hair or skin, or their size, or their special abilities．When there were two men who were named John in the same village, the John with the gray hair probably became John Gray．Or the John was very tall could call himself John Tallman．John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer．

Some family names were made by adding something to the father s name．English-speaking people added –s or –son．The s ancestor was Robert．Irish and Scottish people added Mac or Mc or O．Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the O Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell．

56．Which of the following aspects do the surnames in the passage NOT cover?

A．Places where people lived． B．People s characters．

C．Talents that people possessed． D．People s occupations．

57．According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably _______．

A．owned or drove a cart B．made things with metals

C．made kitchen tools or contains D．built houses and furniture

58．Suppose and English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-born son to become a world leader,

the baby might be named _______．

A．Beatrice Smith B．Leonard Carter

C．George Longstreet D．Donald Greenwood

59．The underlined word “descendants” in the last paragraph means a person s _____．

A．later generations B．friends and relatives

C．colleagues and partners D．later sponsors

B

It is reported that conservation groups in North America have been arguing about the benefits and dangers of wolves．Some groups believe wolves should be killed．Other people believe wolves

Must be protected so that they will not disappear from the wilderness（荒野）

For Killing Wolves

In Alaska，the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago，because hunters were killing hundreds of them for sport．However．1aws were established to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their fur．So the wolf population has greatly increased．Now there are so many wolves that they are destroying their own food supply．

A wolf naturally eats animals in the deer family．People in the wilderness also hunt deer for food．Many of the animals have been destroyed by the very cold winters recently and by changes in the wilderness plant life．When the deer can t find enough food，they die．

If the wolves continue to kill large numbers of deer，their prey（猎物）will disappear some day．And the wolves will．too．So we must change the cycle of life in the wilderness to balance the ecology．If we killed more wolves，we would save them and their prey from dying out．We d also save some farm animals．

In another northern state，wolves attack cows and chickens for food．Farmers want the government to send biologists to study the problem．They believe it necessary to kill wolves in some areas and to protect them in places where there is a small wolf population．

Against Killing Wolves

If you had lived long ago，you would have heard many different stories about the dangerous wolf．According to most stories，hungry wolves often kill people for food．Even today，the stories of the“big bad wolf'＂will not disappear．

But the fact is wolves are afraid of people．and they seldom travel in areas where there is a human smell．When wolves eat other animals，they usually kill the very young．or the sick and injured．The strongest survive ．No kind of animal would have survived through the centuries if the weak members had lived．And has always been a law of nature.

Although some people say it is good sense to kill wolves，we say it is nonsense! Researchers have found wolves and their prey living in balance．The wolves keep the deer population from becoming too large, and that keeps a balance in the wilderness plant life．

The real problem is that the areas where wolves can live are being used by people．Even if wilderness land is not used directly for human needs．the wolves can t always find enough food．So they travel to the nearest source, which is often a farm．Then there is danger．The“big bad wolf”has arrived! And everyone knows what happens next．

60．According to the passage，some people in North America favor killing wolves for all the following reasons EXCET

that ．

A．there are too many wolves B．they kill large numbers deer

C．they attack cows and chickens for food D．they destroy the wilderness plant life

61．

A．wolves help to keep the ecological balance in the wideness

B．there is too small a wolf population in the wilderness

C．there are too many deer in the wilderness

D．wolves are afraid of people and never attack people

62．According to those against killing wolves，when wolves eat other animals，

A．they never eat strong and healthy ones

B．they always go against the law of nature

C．they might help this kind of animals survive in nature

D．they disturb the ecological balance in the wilderness

63．The last sentence“And everyone knows what happens next”implies that in such cases

A．farm animals will be in danger and have to be shipped away

B．wolves will kill people and people will in turn kill them

C．wolves will find enough food sources on farms

D．people will leave the areas where wolves can live

C

Imagine，one day，getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours，and then，

after a full day of work，going back home to Beijing and having dinner there．

Sounds unusual，doesn't it? But it's not that unrealistic，with the development of China s high—speed railway system．And that s not a11．China has an even greater high—speed railway plan—to connect the country with Southeast Asia，and eventually Eastern Europe．

China is negotiating to extend its own high·-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 1 0 to 15 years，eventually reaching London and Singapore．

China has proposed three such projects．The first would possibly connect Kunming withSingapore via Vietnam and Malaysia．Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan，and possibly to Germany．The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe．

If China s plan for the high-speed railway goes forward，people could zip over from London to Beiling in under two days． The new system would still follow China s high—speed railway standard．And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour，almost as fast as some airplanes．

China s bullet train（高速客车），the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou，already has the World s fastest average speed．It covers 1,069 kilometers in about three hours．

Of course，there are some technical challenges to overcome．There are so many issues that need to be settled，such as safety，rail gauge（轨距），maintenance of railway tracks．So，it s important to pay attention to every detail．

But the key issue is really money．China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion． China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital investment．Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development．

It 11 be a win-win project．For other countries，the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business，tourism and so on，not to mention the better communication among those countries．

For China，such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources，but would also help develop China s far west．We foresee that in the coming decades，millions of people will migrate to the western regions，where the land is empty and resources unused．With high-speed trains，people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for a11．And they 11 trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries．

67．China

A．China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regions

B．China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various ways

C．China will develop its railway system and communication with other countries

D．the foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation，business and tourism

68．According to the passage，

A．technical issues B．safety of the system

C．financial problems D．maintenance of railway tracks

69．Which of the following words best describes the author s attitude towards China s high-speed railway plan?

A．Critical． B．Reserved． C．Doubtful． D．Positive．

70．Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?

A．New Railway Standards B．Big Railway Dreams

C．High—speed Bullet Trains D．International Railway Network

第四部分：任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）

请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。 ．．

注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填1个单词。

For more than twenty years scientists have been seeking to understand the mystery of the sixth sense" of direction．By trying out ideas and solving problems one by one，they are now getting closer to one answer．

One funny idea is that animals might have a built-in compass（指南针）．

Our earth itself is a big magnet（磁体）．So a little magnetic needle that swings freely lines itself with the big earth magnet to point north and south．When people discovered that idea about a thousand years ago and invented the compass，it allowed sailors to navigate （航海）on ocean voyages, even under cloudy skies．

Actuallly the idea of the living compass came just from observing animals in nature．

Many birds migrate twice a year between their summer homes and winter homes．Some of them fly for thousands of kilometers and mostly at night．Experiments have shown that some birds can recognize star patterns．But they can keep on course even under cloudy skies．How can they do that?

A common bird that does not migrate but is great at finding its way home is the homing pigeon．Not all pigeons can find their way home．Those that can are very good at it，and they have been widely studied．

One interesting experiment was to attach little magnets to the birds heads to block their magnetic sense—just as a loud radio can keep you from hearing a call to dinner．On sunny days, that did not fool the pigeons．Evidently they can use the sun to tell which way they are going．But on cloudy days，the pigeons with magnets could not find their way．It was as if the magnets had blocked their magnetic sense．

Similar experiments with the same kind of results were done with honeybees．These insects also seem to have a special sense of direction．

In spite of the experiments，the idea of an animal compass seemed pretty extraordinary．How would an animal get the magnetic stuff for a compass．

An answer came from an unexpected source．A scientist was studying bacteria that live in the mud of ponds and marshes．He found accidentally little rod-like bacteria that all swam together in one direction—north．

Further study showed that each little bacterium had a chain of dense particles inside，which proved magnetic．The bacteria had made themselves into little magnets that could line up with the earth s magnet．

The big news was that a living thing，even a simple bacterium，can make magnetite．That led to a search to see whether animals might have it．．By using a special instrument called magnetometer，scientists were able to find magnetite in bees and birds，and even in fish．In each animal，except for the bee．the magnetic stuff was always in or closer to the brain．
