第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

阅读下列短文,从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

People often say that money talks. They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power. Anyone in a business will tell you that it is a jungle(丛林)out there. This expression is probably used because the jungle is filled with wild animals and unknown dangers. Sometimes people in business feel competing businesses are as dangerous as wild animals.

People in business have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there. They must not be led into making bogus investments(投资). The word bogus began to appear in American newspapers in the 1800s. A newspaper in Boston, Massachusetts said the word came from a criminal(罪犯) whose name was Borghese. Borghese wrote checks to people although he did not have enough money in the bank. After writing the checks, he would escape from the town. So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing. The newspaper said Americans shortened and changed his name Borghese to bogus.

People trying to earn money also must know about being ripped off. A person who is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated very unfairly. A writer for the magazine said he first saw the expression used on a sign that a student carried in a university. The message on the sign was that the student felt ripped off, or cheated. Perhaps the best way to prevent getting ripped off in business is not to try to get rich quickly.

56. People compare doing business to being in a jungle because____________. A. doing business is as exciting as living in a jungle B. doing business is as difficult as living in a jungle C. businessmen are dangerous as animals in a jungle D. businessmen are as careful as people living in a jungle

57. If we say something is bogus, we probably mean that it is not________. A. good B. beautiful C. real D. new 58. If you have been ripped off, it probably means ___________. A. you have been treated well

B. you have had something stolen C. you have earned much money

D. you have left something somewhere

59. This passage is mainly written to _______________. A. explain several expressions related to money B. tell us some skills of learning English C. tell us the secret of how to make money

D. teach us how to get new expressions about money

B 第 5 页 共 12 页 Getting too little sleep or not spending enough time in rapid eye movement(REM) sleep is connected (有关系) with being overweight among children, according to a new study.

For three nights, researchers studied the sleep patterns of 335 young people, aged 7 to 17. They looked at total sleep time, time spent in REM, time it took to fall asleep. Body-mass index(体质指数) was checked at the start of the study, and 45 persons in the research were overweight, while 49 were at risk of becoming overweight.

Compared to normal-weight children, those who were overweight slept about 22 minutes less per night and didn‟t sleep as well as them, which means shorter REM sleep, less eye activity during REM sleep, and a longer wait before the first REM period.

After more research, the researchers concluded that one hour less of total sleep was connected with a double increased risk of being overweight. One hour less of REM sleep was connected with a three times increased risk.

Although the reasons are still being researched, the relationship between short sleep duration(持续时间) and overweight may be the result of behavioral and biological changes, which are caused by sleep loss, wrote Dr. Xianchen Liu of the Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic in Pittsburgh and his colleagues.

They explained that sleep loss causes changes in hormone (荷尔蒙) levels that may have an effect on hunger, and less sleep also means a person has more waking hours in which to eat. Sleep loss also leads to tiredness the following day, which may lead to less physical activity and fewer calories burned. 60. According to the passage, all of the following statements are true EXCEPT that . A. about 13.4% of the 335 young people in the study are overweight

B. the reasons why sleep loss leads to being overweight have been found C. total sleep time was not the only thing that the researchers considered

D. at the start of the study, all the 335 youngsters had their body-mass index checked 61. Paragraph 4 suggests that . A. good REM movement sleep is very important to children B. children who are overweight should sleep an hour longer C. the longer children sleep, the more likely they will get fat D. people who are overweight generally have sleep problems

62. Which is NOT the reason why sleep loss causes the risk of being overweight?

A. It changes levels of hormone, which may lead to hunger.

B. It gives people more time to stay awake, during which they can eat more. C. It makes people feel tired, so they are unwilling to be physically active. D. It means more hours to work or study, so people have to eat more. 63. What is the best title for this passage?

A. Researchers find why children become overweight. B. Kids who are overweight are in need of more sleep.

C. Children who sleep poorly are at risk of being overweight.

D. Researchers find ways to prevent children from becoming overweight.

She had been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart.She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful brown haired, freckle-faced image of innocence.Outside, it was pouring so heavily. We all stood there just inside the door of the Wal-Mart.We waited, some patiently, others annoyed because nature messed up their hurried day.I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens washing away the dirt and dust of the world. Her voice was so sweet as it broke the hypnotic trance(昏昏欲睡)we were all caught in.\"Mom, let's run through the rain,\" she said. \"No, honey.We'll wait until it slows down a bit,\" Mom replied.

This young child waited about another minute and repeated: \"Mom, let's run through the rain.\" \" We'll get soaked if we do,\" Mom said. \"No, we won't, Mom.That's not what you said this morning,\" the young girl said as she tore at her Mom's arm. “This morning? When? Did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?\" \"Don't you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said, „If God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!\" The entire crowd stopped dead silent.I dare say you couldn't hear anything but the rain.We all stood silently. No one came or left in the next few minutes.Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say. Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being silly.Some might even ignore what was said. But this was a moment of affirmation in a young child's lifetime when innocent(单纯的) trust can be developed so that it will bloom into faith.\"Honey, you are absolutely right.Let's run through the rain.If we get wet, well maybe we just need washing,\" Mom said.Then off they ran. We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they rushed past the cars and they held their shopping bags over their heads just in case.They got soaked.But they were followed by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars.And yes, I did.I ran.I got wet.I needed washing. You may lose your material possessions, your money and even your health, but no one can ever take away your precious memories.So don't forget to make time and take the opportunities to make memories.

64. The best title for the passage might be _____. A.Have a wonderful experience B.Be a Determined Mother C.Run Through the Rain D.Wait in the Rain 65. What do we know about the mother in the story? A.Her husband was cured of his cancer. B.She was in despair and pretended to forget what she said. C.Her daughter completely understood the situation her family was in.

Today only one person in five in the United States lives within 50 miles of his birthplace. Since the country was first settled, Americans have moved around a great deal, and are often far away from their parents. Because they have broken ties with their past at a young age, chosen their own occupations, established their own homes and developed their own lifestyles, few American children grow up closely surrounded by grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins as they do in Italy, Nigeria, or India, for example. This along with the fact that modern American families do not have servants has made the “baby-sitter” an important part of the American scene. A “sitter” is someone who is hired to care for children for a period of time—usually relatively short—while the parents are out for an evening, going to a party or a course of study for example. Sometimes the baby-sitter is also hired for longer period, perhaps when the parents are away for a weekend. In such cases the “sitter” is likely to be a mature and motherly woman. For short periods, teen-agers, college students, nursing students, and others are commonly employed on an hourly basis.

From the point of view of convenience, the best sitters are often young people who live in your

apartment building or close by in the neighborhood. This gives you a chance to meet the parents and see what they are like. If an emergency occurs, young sitters can call upon their parents quickly for help; you do not have to take them far to see them home at night or pay expensive taxi fares. Another advantage is that young people living close by can usually fill in quite readily on short notice or for short periods of time.

In an apartment house you can ask the superintendent (负责人) for permission to post a notice for a baby-sitter by the mailboxes. This is often the best way to find out if there is anyone in the building who is interested in baby-sitting. Retired people as well as students are often glad to earn a little money in this way and can be found by such a note.

68. We can infer from the first paragraph that ______. A. the American is a movable and independent nation B. the Americans are often far away from their parents

C. the Children in Italy, Nigeria, or India doesn‟t feel like living with their parents D. the Americans broke ties with their past at a young age 69. A baby-sitter is a person who ______. A. helps to do housework B. is a cleaning woman

C. takes care of babies and cooks for the family D. looks after children while their parents are out

B. American Families

C. A Way of Earning Money for Young Students D. A Best Way to Find Baby-Sitters

Have you ever been in a meeting while someone was making a speech and realized suddenly that your mind was a million miles away? You probably felt sorry and made up your mind to pay attention and never have daydreaming again. Most of us, from earliest school days, have been told that daydreaming is a waste of time.

“On the contrary,” says L. Giambra, an expert in psychology (心理学), “daydreaming is quite necessary. Without it, the mind couldn't get done all the thinking it has to do during a normal day. You can't possibly do all your thinking with a conscious(有意识的)mind. Instead, your unconscious mind is working out problems all the time. Daydreaming then may be one way that the unconscious and conscious states of mind have silent dialogues.”

Early experts in psychology paid no attention to the importance of daydreams or even considered them harmful. At one time daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses. They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980s. Eric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer of the book Daydreaming. Klinger says, “We know now that daydreaming is one of the main ways that we organize our lives, learn from our experiences, and plan for our futures. Day dreams really are a window on the things we fear and the things we long for in life. “

Daydreams are usually very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand. It's easier to gain a deep understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully. Daydreams help you recognize the difficult situations in your life and find out a possible way of handling(处理) them.

Daydreams cannot be predicted; they move off in unexpected directions which may be creative and full of useful ideas. For many famous artists and scientists, daydreams were and are a main source of creative energy.

So the next time you catch yourself daydreaming, don't stop. Just pay attention to your dream. It may be more important than you think.

72. Daydreaming used to be considered . A. very simple and direct B. unimportant or even harmful C. a necessary part of thinking D. the result of an unconscious mind 73. Professor Eric Klinger believes that . A. we may study our experiences just through our daydreams B. daydreaming is one of the important ways that we recognize our lives C. our fears and longings in life are shown in our daydreams

第 9 页 共 12 页 D. we should be able to tell our futures by having daydreams

D. many artists and scientists are famous because they have daydreams 74. In what way are daydreams different from sleep dreams? A. Daydreams help us to handle more difficult situations. B. Daydreams are not so easy for us to control and direct. C. Daydreams are easier for us to understand. D. Daydreams help to develop an unconscious mind.

75. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. Daydreaming was once regarded as a cause of some mental illnesses. B. Many well-known artists gained energy of creation from daydreams. C. Experts began to have a better understanding of daydreams in the late 1980s. D. An unconscious mind can work all the problems out.
