三、阅读 （共两节，满分40分）

第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下面短文，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

A law student from the former Soviet republic of Georgia, 18- year-old Lika Revishvili has been physically disabled since birth. Lika gets around with the help of a crutch and her father, who has devoted 24 hours a day to helping her.

But in Georgia, people with disabilities are deeply stigmatized. They are usually excluded from mainstream society, often attend separate schools, and are sometimes institutionalized（使进专门机构）. The fact that Lika made it to law school is extraordinary. Her success largely depends on the sacrifices her family makes for her, but most Georgian families do not have the resources to provide for their disabled children.

Since 2000, USAID has sponsored delegates from more than 20 developing countries to attend the biannual International Congress on Children and Youth with Disabilities in their Home Communities. Lika was selected to be one of 16 candidates representing Georgia at the 2004 conference in Norway, which addressed the legal rights of disabled people and explored programs that work to include disabled people in community life. Attendees focused on how to create formal networks of support within communities that integrate the health, education and recreation needs of disabled children.

After returning, Lika said “she thinks Georgia is one step closer to realizing the importance of integrating disabled people into community institutions. Meeting so many people from other countries working on disabled children’s rights made me believe that there really is a chance that we can make a difference in Georgia.”

Another Congress participant offered Lika a job when she returned, and she now educates non-disabled children about the legal and human rights of disabled kids. I could never have imagined myself in the role of a trainer for children having no disabilities, but attending the Norway Congress gave me a lot of confidence.

Lika and the rest of the Georgian delegation plan to continue to work together in the future to improve disabled children’s access to education and social services in Georgia.

41. Why is Lika able to go to law school?

A. Because her ability is outstanding.

B. Becuse her family makes sacrifices for her.

C. Because law school treats all the students equally.

D. Because Lika persuades the law school to admit her.

42. The underlined word stigmatized in the second paragraph prabably means _______.

A. made feel bad and unimportant      B. criticized

C. taken care of                    D. sympathized

43. The main task of the participants at the conference in Norway is to ________.

A. care for the health of the disabled

B. explore recreation programs that the disabled can take part in in community life.

C. create networks to support the disabled in education.

D. create formal networks that combine the health, education and recreation needs of disabled children.

44. Which statement is Not true about Lika?

A. She was born physically disabled.

B. She was elected as a representative to attend the biannual International Congress held in Norway.

C. She believes that they can make a difference in Georgia with so many people concerning the disabled.

D. She was sure she could get the chance to educate healthy children.

45. What’s the passage mainly talking about?

A. Fighting for the rights of the disabled.

B. The life of Lika Revishvili.

C. The unfair treatment the disabled suffered in Georgia.

D. The function of USAID

【答案解析】

41．B  细节理解题。根据第二段的三、四句我们知道Lika能上法律学校，主要依赖于其家庭所做的牺牲/贡献。A、D两项文中未提及；C项与本段前半部分的叙述相矛盾。

42．A  推断题。根据第二段的第二句和第三段的内容我们可以推断出在Georgia残疾人遭受不平等待遇，受到诬蔑和歧视，所以才号召为他们争取平等权利。所以A“使感到羞辱；诬蔑”能表达此意。B“批评”；C“照顾”；D“同情”都不符合上下文之意。

43．D  细节理解题。 D项的陈述与第三段的最后一句“Attendees focused on how to create formal networks of support within communities that integrate the health, education and recreation needs of disabled children.”相吻合，此句说明了与会者的主要任务。其余三项只概括了任务部分内容，不全面。

44．D  细节理解题。短文的最后一句说明Lika没有料到她会得到机会去教育健康的孩子。所以D项叙述与此相悖，故错误。其余三项分别与一、三、四段的内容一致。

45．A  主旨大意题。全文通过Georgia的残疾人所遭受的歧视引入话题，主要讲述了Lika和USAID为争取残疾人的平等权利所做的努力，以及所取得的成绩。A项全面概括了此意。B、C、D三项只概括了短文的部分内容。

                      B.

"Chang'e I is purely a scientific mission; it has no military aim and is carrying no military facilities or equipment," a spokesman for the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense said Wednesday.

Luan Enjie, chief commander of the lunar satellite project, said China will not embark on（从事）any competition "in any form with any country" and will "share the results of its moon exploration with the whole world", adding that China pursues a policy of peaceful use of space.

"China welcomes international cooperation in space activities," Vice-Minister of Science and Technology Li Xueyong said, adding the country hopes to become the 17th nation to join the International Space Station (ISS) project.

The space station is a joint project of 16 nations including the United States, Russia, Japan, Canada, Brazil and 11 countries from the European Space Agency.

Rene Oosterlinck, director of legal and external relations of the European Space Agency and one of the foreign guests invited to watch the launch, said three of the agency's stations around the world will help monitor the voyage of Chang'e I.

"We are looking forward to cooperate with China in the second and third stages of the lunar probe program," he said.

Stephen Mackwell, head of the Lunar and Planetary Institute, told Xinhua that he believed China's space exploration was more of an opportunity than a "threat".

Ouyang Ziyuan, chief scientist of the lunar exploration program, said the lunar orbiter project's $186 million price tag is worthwhile as it is the same amount needed for building 2 km of a subway in Beijing.

"It will boost the development of national science and technology and help train a group of talents in the space field," he said.

Chinese scientists started systematic and comprehensive analysis and research about lunar science as early as the mid-1960s, and started a feasibility study on lunar probe plans in the 1990s.

46. From the first paragaph we can infer that _______.

A. Chang’e I is a only a scientific mission

B. Chang’e I is intended for military aim

C. Chang’e I has been suspected to serve the military aim

D. Chang’e I will serve for National Defense

47. If we plan to build 4km of a subway in Beijing, how much money we need?

A. $ 186     B. $ 372      C. $ 744     D. $ 98

48. How long have Chnisese scientists been sysematically researching about lunar science for?

A. about 20 years        B. about 30 years   

C. about 40 years        D. about 50 years

49. According to the news, which statement is TRUE?

A. China won’t share the results of the moon exploration with the whole world.

B. China has become the 17^th nation to join the International Space Station project.

C. China has promised to cooperate with the European Space Agency in the second and third stages of the lunar probe program.

D. The successful launch Chang’e I will certainly promote the develop of national science and technology.

50. Which can be the best title of the passage?

A. Peaceful mission of Chang’e I

B. Successful launch of Chang’e I

C. The functions of Chang’e I

D. More of an opportunity than a threat

【答案解析】

46. C。推理判断题。发言人在讲话中强调嫦娥一号是纯粹的科学探索，没有军事目的，不携带军事设备。由此推断，嫦娥一号的发射被怀疑带有军事目的。

47. B。细节理解题。由 “…the lunar orbiter project's $186 million price tag is worthwhile as it is the same amount needed for building 2 km of a subway in Beijing.”得出在北京修建4公里的地铁需要

$ 372。

48. C。细节理解题。由文章的最后一段知：从20世纪60年代中期开始中国的科学家就开始对月球进行系统的、全面的研究，至今应由40多年的时间了。

49. D。细节理解题。短文的倒数第二段说明嫦娥一号的成功将促进我们国家科学技术的发展、并能培养出一批太空探索方面的优秀人才。

50. A。主旨大意题。这是一片新闻报道，一般来说，报道的第一段就是文章的主题所在，其余内容都由此展开。第一段强调嫦娥一号是纯粹的科学探索，没有军事目的，也就是说它担负的是和平使命，而且中国愿与世界太空领域的研究机构合作。

C.

Moving in with a boyfriend causes women to eat more unhealthily and put on weight. But the opposite is true for men, whose long-term health benefits when they move in with a female partner.

   Dieticians at Newcastle University said both partners try to please one another, and so change their dietary habits to suit their other half.

   It leads men to eat more light meals, such as salads, fruit and vegetables, while women choose to make creamier, heavier dishes curry or rich pasta sauces, which may please their partner.

   Women still have the strongest long-term influence over the couple’s diet and lifestyle, as they still have the traditional role of shopper and cook in most households.

   The report, by Newcastle University’s Human Nutrition Research Centre, reviewed the finding of a variety of research projects from the UK, North America and Australia, which looked at the eating and lifestyle habits of couples.

   The research shows that women are more likely to put on weight and increase their consumption of foods high in fat and sugar when they move in with their partner.

   Women also use food as a comfort when dealing with emotional stress and have been found to gain weight when a relationship ends, while the same finding has not been observed in men.

   Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership, and eating together in the evening was particularly important to many.

   Report author and registered dietician Dr. Amelia Lake said, “The research has shown that your partner is a strong influence on lifestyle and people who are trying to live healthier lives should take this factor into consideration.”

51. According to the passage, moving in with a girlfriend, men _______.

A. have few changes of their dietary habits

B. have to eat more unhealthy foods

C. don’t like foods high in fat and sugar at all

D. try to eat foods that their girlfriends like

52. The underlined word “light”(in Paragraph 4 ) probably means ________.

A. not very heavy         B. less in fat and sugar

C. gentle                      D. not serious or important

53. According to the report by Newcastle University’s Human Nutrition Research Centre, ________.

A. women put on weight only because they want to suit their other half

B. when men are faced with emotional stress, they will change their dietary habits

C. eating together in the evening is a good way to communicate for couples

D. it is wrong to change your dietary habits to suit your partner

54. From the passage, we can infer that _________.

A. women should pay more attention to their partner’s influence on them

B. more men will play roles of shopper and cook in most households

C. couples will not change their dietary habits and lifestyle to please their partner

D. long-term health of men benefits when they move in with a female partner

55. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Don’t be silly any more, women!

B. Which are better dietary habits?

C. Boyfriends make you fat

D. Dr. Amelia Lake and his study

【答案解析】  本文是说纽卡斯尔大学的营养学专家的研究表明，同居让女人发胖 让男人更健康。

51． D  细节理解题。由第三段，特别是which may please their partner可知，男女双方会改变自己的饮食习惯来迎合对方， 因此男士会吃他的女伴喜欢吃的食物。

52．B  词意猜测题。由其后所举的例子salads, fruit and vegetables可推断，light 在此是“清淡的”的意思，脂肪和糖的含量比较少。

53．C  推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知C项正确。根据倒数第三段可知女士增肥不仅是因为迎合了对方的口味，还有缓解情绪的原因，故A项错误；根据倒数第三段最后while the same finding has not been observed in men可知B项错误；D项文中没有提及。

54．A  推理判断题。纵览全文，特别是根据短文最后一个句子可推断A正确。D项文中第二段已经明确指出，不是推断。

55．C  主旨要义题。C项幽默风趣，能吸引读者的注意， 并切中文章的主题。

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

 [阅读材料]

  Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents' home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

    I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.

    I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

    Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池)was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.

    "Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.

    "Thank you" - two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.

【参考答案】

In this passage, the writer mainly tells us two of his experiences of being helped by strangers. After he wrote them thank-you notes, he realized that saying “thank you” to others meant so much.

I have a similar experience. Once when I was about to go home after school, it was raining so heavily that I had to wait for the rain to stop. But after half an hour it was still raining. Seeing this, the guard at the gate offered to lend me his umbrella. I accepted at once. Thanks to his help, I got home on time without getting wet. The next morning, when I returned the umbrella to the guard, I said thank you to him and left him a note expressing my gratitude sincerely. To my surprise, he said no one had ever written him to say thank you, and it meant a lot to him.

So in my opinion, saying thank you to others is not only easy but also meaningful to the person who says it and the receiver!
