第三部 分阅读理解 (共两节，满分40分)

第一节选择题(共17小题；每小题2分，满分34分)

阅读下列短文，然后从各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题 卡上将该项涂黑。

A

For many years, I was convinced that my suffering was due to my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts, and rejections with it.

Many weight-conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved, being special, and being cherished. We fantasize(幻想) about what it will belike when we reach the long-awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.

But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, We continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness. Self-worth. and of course, 1ove.

It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to 1earn about beauty. Beauty standards vary with culture. In Samoa, a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds．More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us strive(奋斗) hard to change our body, but in vain. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.

56. The passage tries to make the readers realize the importance of ________. A. body size B. culture difference

C. attitude toward life D. different beauty standards

57. The underlined word ―everything‖ in paragraph two means ________．

A. all the problems B. all the efforts C. the whole world D. the total truth 58. What can be inferred about the author? A. The author is a Samoan.

B. The author succeeded in losing weight.

C. The author probably got wounded in wars or accidents. D. The author has been troubled by her/ his weight.

59. According to the author, the common view of those who have lost some weight first and gained it back later is that ．

A. they feel angry about the regained weight B. they don’t care about the regained weight

C. they feel optimistic about future plans on weight contr01

D. they think they should give up their future plans on weight control

B

A baby can quickly damage a new mother’s well-laid plans for getting back to prepregnancy weight and shape．

The constant demands, together with the exhausting effects of interrupted sleep, can make it hard to find the time and energy to exercise or prepare healthy meals.

Here are some tips for common problems new moms face:

Problem：No time to cook proper meals．When you’re caring for a baby, cooking proper meals seems like a luxury. Instead you rely on convenience meals and processed foods.

Solution：Try to get more support. Friends, family members, and neighbors are often delighted to help, so don’t feel you have to do everything yourself. Use the extra time to prepare some healthy meals. Follow the basic rules of cutting down on fat and increasing fruit and vegetable intake.

Problem：Sugary or high-fat snacks. Tiredness can leave you feeling sleepy, run-down, and in need of an immediate help from sweets and high-fat snacks.

Solution：Turn snacking to your advantage. Eat high-fiber, low-fat, low-sugar snacks; these will fill you up without adding too many calories．For an energy boost, eat a banana, which is high in potassium—a mineral essential for muscle and nerve function—or try a handful of raisins(葡萄干), which are high in iron but low in fat. Problem：No time Or energy to exercise．A baby is a constant demand on your time，so you’re too tired or busy to exercise． Solution：Increasing activity levels will help you obtain a net calorie loss，while toning exercises will tighten your muscles. Though you may feel too tired to do any exercise, it is worth persevering because in the long run your energy levels will increase. Involve your baby in your postnatal(产后)exercises; start by walking with the child in a carriage or sling. Swimming is another aerobic exercise that you can both enjoy by joining a mother and baby class. Many pools have childcare facilities, so you can swim a few laps on your own. Problem：Lack of sleep．The new baby interrupts your sleep, depleting your energy and leaving you tense and exhausted．

Solution：Practice some relaxation techniques whenever you have a few free moments. Meditation, visualization, or yoga can help your body recover and give you more energy. 60. What’s the subject of the text?

A. The influence of babies off their mother. B. Weight-loss solutions for new morns. C. The reasons of new moms’ fatness.

D. How to exercise and prepare healthy meals．

61. What’s the common problem that new morns don’t face? A. Living on convenience meals and processed foods．

B. Having sweets to get rid of tiredness and sleepiness quickly． C. That new moms find it hard to have time and energy to exercise． D. Sleeping too long can make them fat．

62. The underlined word“depleting”in the passage means ________.

A. consuming B. disturbing C. accumulating D. saving 63. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. It’s impossible to do any exercise with your baby． B. You can’t swim alone in the pool with a baby. C. Meditation or yoga can make you refreshed.

D. Low-fat and high-fiber snacks will add you too many calories.

C

We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.

Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed—no examination is perfect—but to have no tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in schools or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency, the values and the purpose of each teacher.

Without examinations，employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from

families known to them—a form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well—respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school’s reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored school.

The opponents(反对者)of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.

64. The underlined word“favoritism‖ in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that ______. A. bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobs B. children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobs C. poor children with certificates are favored in job markets D. children attending ordinary schools achieve great success

65. What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author? A. Schools for bright children would lose their reputation． B. There would be more opportunities and excellence．

C. Children from poor families would be able to change their schools．

D. Children’s job opportunity would be affected by their school reputation． 66. The opponents of the examination system will agree that A. jobs should not be assigned by systematic selection B. computers should be selected to take over many jobs C. special classes are necessary to keep the school standards D. schools with academic subjects should be done away with 67. The passage mainly focuses on ________.

A. schools and certificates B. examination and equality C. opportunity and employment D. standards and reputation

D

You could be a heroic hunter by expecting to fight against evil monsters or the fastest F1 driver around In the world of computer games, nothing is impossible.

If you’re into computer games, E3 is where you can find the most up-to-date equipment．For both gamers and companies, the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), held in Los Angeles, US, for three days from May 10, was a carnival (狂欢节).

The top three computer game manufacturers (生产商) in the world all showed off their new machines. Nintendo’s (任天堂) new game controller looks as easy to use as a TV remote.

Sony’s PlayStation 3 combines the world’s most powerful game console (游戏机) with a next-generation DVD player.

Microsoft’s Xbox 360 can connect to personal computers (PC) and cell phones, so users can transfer game content among the three systems. PC VS Console

The E3 also had new games for both PCs and consoles such as the Xbox or PlayStation. Gamers will again be faced with the long—existing problem of which system to use.

Some analysts have suggested that PC gaming has seen its day, since console players have made great advances.

Further, compared with a PC, a console is cheap. The average price of the PlayStation and the Xbox is only one-third of that of a personal computer.

One of the biggest advantages the PC has over consoles is that there are a lot more games available, plus many are free to download. PCs also give gamers a variety of ways to connect to the Internet, and to one

another.

However, many consoles now support online games as well. It seems that as long as people can be dragon(龙)hunters or crazy drivers, it doesn’t matter whether it is on a PC or a console. 68. The second part of the passage is mainly about ________．

A. a comparison between different systems B. up-to-date computer games

C. E3 D. 1ong existing problem of gaming 69. The writer compares E3 to a carnival because ________.

A. the latest game equipment is on show there B. this is the world of computer games C. new game machines are given away there D. it shows the vast possibility of gaming 70. Compared to consoles, the personal computer has the advantages of ________. A. 10wer prices B. having made great advances

C. supporting online games D. a lot more games available and free to download 71. As for different game systems，the writer ． A. points out PC gaming is no longer on the market B. prefers consoles

C. shows a neutral (中立的)viewpoint

D. suggests using cell phones to connect them

72. The underlined word“that”in the last paragraph but two refers to ―the ________‖． A. PlayStation B. Xbox C. console D. price 第二节 简答题 (共3小题，满分6分)

阅读下面短文，根据第73至第75小题的具体要求，简要回答问题。

Functional beverages are a foreign concept referred to as ―drinks for specific uses‖. They include sports drinks, which have vitamins and minerals to help replace the salt and minerals lost in sweat; and nutrient drinks, which have caffeine and something to make people excited. Functional beverages have been known in Asia and Europe for some time, but are relative newcomers to the U.S. market. Previously, market participants believe that drinks were all about refreshment.

Functional beverages originated the concept that beverages could be sold as a ―lifestyle‖ product．In fact，one of the main forces at work among the Americans is the lack of time．This sense of speed causes consumers to look for quick and easy solutions: functional beverages have benefited from this attitude，as have functional foods.

It is easier to grab a bottle of juice than eat an apple，easier to down a cereal (谷类食物) bar than get out a bowl and spoon to cat conventional food, and so on. Young consumers are especially drawn to the idea of consuming a functional beverage that provides energy as well as a cool image. Other consumers who want to do something good for themselves find functional drinks better than more conventional beverages that do not have the added ―good for you‖ poisoning.

But some experts suggest consumers should be careful in choosing a brand. For example, some are best after intense exercise and some are not good for people with high blood pressure or heart disease.

Experts have said that today’s functional beverages are more about health and fashion than thirst and that the industry needs regulating.

73. Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word ―beverage‖. ______________________________________________________________ 74. Why do young consumers like functional beverages? (回答词数不超过9个) _____________________________________________________________ 75. What is the text mainly about? (回答词数不超过7个)

Homework is a great way for kids to develop independent, lifelong learning skills, so here are some general homework tips for parents:

● Make sure your child has a quiet, well-lit place to do homework.

Avoid having your child do homework with the television on or in places with other distractions，such as people coming and going.

● Make sure the materials your child needs, such as paper, pencils and a dictionary, are available. Ask your child if special materials will be needed for some projects and get them in advance. ● Help your child with time management．

Establish a set time each day for doing homework. Don’t let your child leave homework until just before bedtime. Think about using a weekend morning or afternoon for working on big projects, especially if the project involves getting together with classmates． ● Be positive about homework.

Tell your child how important school is. The attitude you express about homework will be the attitude your child acquires.

● When your child asks for help, provide guidance, not answers.

Giving answers means your child will not learn the material. Too much help teaches your child that when the going gets rough, someone will do the work for him or her.

Cooperate with the teacher. It shows your child that the school and home are a team. Follow the directions given by the teacher. ● Reward progress in homework.

If your child has been successful in homework completion and is working hard, celebrate that success with a special event (e.g. pizza, a walk, a trip to the park) to reinforce the positive effort．
