Part III Reading Comprehension (40%) (35minutes)

Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each question, there are four choices marked

A), B), C) and D). You should choose the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Passage One

Questions 33 to 37 are based on the following passage.

An earthquake is caused by a sudden slip on a fault(断层).A fault is a fracture in the crust(地壳)of the earth along which rock on one side have moved relative to those on the other side. Stresses in the earth’s outer layer push the sides of the fault together, build up and the rocks slips suddenly, releasing energy in waves that travel through the rock to cause the shaking that we feel during an earthquake.

Earthquakes tend to be concentrated in narrow zones. There are 7 major crustal plates on earth, about 80 km thick, all in constant motion relative to one another. They move at between 10 and 130mm per year.

It is estimated that there are several million earthquakes in the world each year. Many of these earthquakes go undetected because they occur in remote areas or have very small magnitudes(震级). The USGS Earthquake Information center locates 12,000 to 14,000 earthquakes each year (about 35 per day). On average, about 60 earthquakes per year are classified as significant, with 19 classified as major. A significant earthquake is one of magnitude 6.5 or higher or one of lesser magnitude that causes casualties (伤亡)or considerable damage. Major earthquakes have a

magnitude larger than 7.0.

A)Earthquakes of large magnitudes cause casualties.

B)Earthquakes often happen in narrow zones.

C)Earthquakes involve the release of energy

D)Earthquakes can cause waves in the sea.

35.What can we learn form the passage?B

B)Earthquakes are very common on the earth.

C)Scientists can find a way to prevent earthquakes.

D)More earthquakes of higher magnitudes are detected than those of lower ones.

37.The word ”fracture”(Line 1, paragraph 1)most probably means__D__.

A)a stress in the crust C)an outer layer of the crust

B)a large hole in the rock D)a cracked part in the rock

Passage Two

Questions 33 to 42 are based on the following passage.

Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you know was in trouble — and he was? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later？Maybe you have a sixth sense (SS).

This sense seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.

Here’s an example: A woman was ironing clothes. Suddenly she screamed, “My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair!” Just then, a telegram came. The woman’s father died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair.

There are thousands of stories like this one on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what’s behind these strange mental messages. Here’s another example — one of hundreds of dreams that have come true：

A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said，”There’s room for one. “The man felt the driver seemed dead. So he ran away. The next day，the man was getting on a crowded bus. The bus driver said，”There’s room for one more. “ Then the man saw that the driver’s face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn’t get on the bus. As the bus drove

想要英语过关,强加练习

off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!

Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences — things that happen by chance. Others, including some scientists, say that the SS is real. From studies of it, we may someday learn more about the human mind.

A)the five senses B)the human dream C)the sixth sense D)the human mind

Passage Four

Questions 48 to 52 are based on the following passage.

Lately, plants that are usually only grown outdoors have found their way into inside spaces. There are a few simple reasons why this happens.

The modern inside environment can be a good place for a wide variety of outdoor plants. Plants that ordinarily cannot grow in colder outdoor weather can be protected by the warmer inside spaces. Plants that used to be found only outside, such as trees, have become more and more popular as decorations （装饰 ）inside houses. Orchids （兰花）, which were once only found in hot places, have begun to grow well in inside places.

One reason that the modern home has made foreign outdoor plants more practical is the modern use of windows. In the past windows were used less often in buildings than they are today. It is partly because of the ability of large windows to admit a large quantity of light from the sun and to keep the heat in at the same time, that many outdoor plants have been able to make their move inside.

It is true that most of the plants that have been successful in moving inside have been small. The best varieties are the small ones that make excellent decorations where other plants prove difficult to grow. Although some trees can be grown inside, it is not likely the larger varieties can be used. Unfortunately, most homes just don’t have the space to grow a monkey tree.

48.The passage is mainly concerned with D________.

A)the ability of large windows

Food Safety in China

With the growing awareness of healthy eating, more and more people now are paying more attention to the importance of healthy diet and an active life. But at the same time, a growing unrest over food safety in the China has caught everyone’s concern.

When it comes to the food safety incidents, especially 2008 Chinese milk scandal, every consumer has much anger to pour upon them. In September 2008, a fresh outbreak of kidney disease occurred, due to baby formula

想要英语过关,强加练习

contaminated by melamine. Three babies died and over 6,000 were made sick by the tainted formula. The supplier of the milk, Sanlu Group, is a name brand and is a major player in the industry in China. The company is said to have known of the problem for months, but claims the contaminant came from milk suppliers.

Who should be main responsible for these serious incidents like milk

scandal? On one hand, complex China’s food regulations should shoulder part duties. We should realized its monitoring system can be unresponsive, and the government departments that oversee and enforce policies have overlapping and often ambiguous duties. On the other, food producers and suppliers lack deserved responsibility for consumers! What they cares is only their own interest and profit maximization.

In my opinion ,everyone involved in it should set up a high responsibility for others, law related should be passed and carried out. Only in this way can we come by a healthy eating and a harmonious world.
