第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。
A
Consulates(领事馆) exist to help citizens abroad to help themselves.Every year millions of people go abroad for pleasure or profit.There are consular officers ready to do what they can to help if people get into difficulties,but for all sorts of reasons there are limits to what they can do.Most times things go well for travelers abroad but occasionally things go wrong.
So,whether you are an experienced travelor or a first timer,going by yourself,with the family or a group there are things you should do before you go.Think about money and tickets well in advance.Take enough money including enough to pay your return fare,and hold on to it.Better still,buy return tickets in the first place.In an emergency a consul(领事) will contact relatives or friends and ask them to help you with money or tickets.But there’s no law that says a consul has to lend you money and if he eventually does (and it will have to be repaid) he will want to be satisfied first that you really do have no money and there is no one else you know who can help.
It is also important to take out proper insurance for everything from car breakdowns to loss of life.A consul cannot pay your medical or any other bills,nor can he do the work of local travel representatives or motoring organizations.
46.What is the author trying to do in the text?
A.To inform people about laws abroad.
B.To describe an international problem.
C.To explain how to visit a consulate.

47.Why would somebody read the text?
A.To know how to contact a consul.
B.To find out how to make a complaint.
C.To know when to contact a consul.
D.To find out where a consul lives.
解析:该题为推理判断题。由文章的中心意思可以推断出,对此文章感兴趣的读者肯定是想了解在什么情况下可以得到领事馆的帮助。
答案:C
48.Travelers should try and buy a return ticket in case they__________.
A.become short of money
B.get into difficulties
C.lose their documents
D.become seriously ill
解析:该题为细节判断题。从文章第二段中的“Think about money and tickets well in advance.Take enough money including enough to pay your return fare,and hold on to it.Better still,buy return tickets in the first place.”可以推断出:以防在旅行过程中不小心把钱用光,最好提前将返程的票买好。
答案:A
49.You can borrow money from a consul if you__________.
A.need to stay abroad longer
B.have to help a relative
C.have no other financial(资金) means
D.need to have your car repaired

答案:C

答案:A
B
For Jason,the youngest of the three Hardman children,Ellsinore was wonderful,but it wasn’t perfect.Something very important was missing—books.There had been libraries at his father’s last duty station,and Jason had used them all regularly.But the library nearest to Ellsinore was in Monoroe,six miles away,and it had a rule that limited him to borrowing three books a week.
Jason was then ten years old,and he mentioned the problem to his mother,Linda Hardman.She knew of several boxes of books kept in Ellsinore’s last library,which had closed several years before for short of money.“Why don’t you look through those old books and see if there are any you can use?” she suggested.
As Jason began sorting through the books,he became excited.The books were old but in good condition.And suddenly an idea hit him.There were enough books to start a library.
So he went to his father.“ I want to start a library and I need your help,” he said.
About a week later,Jason’s father led him to the Mayor of the town.The Mayor listened to Jason very carefully and promised to consider his plan before making a decision.
A month went by.Jason heard nothing about his plan from the Mayor.He soon found the Mayor’s phone number and each night after supper he would pick up the phone and call the Mayor.After weeks of nightly calls,the Mayor began to think that building a library was not just a passing idea for the boy.He then agreed to offer help.
51.How many people were there in Jason’s family?
A.Three. B.Four.
C.Five. D.Six.
解析:该题为计算题。根据文章第一句“For Jason,the youngest of the three Hardman children…”,可以知道Hardman一家有三个孩子;再根据下文中提到Jason有父亲和母亲,这样可以推断出他家有5口人。
答案:C
52.Ellsinore was the name of __________.
A.a place B.a person
C.a library D.Jason’s
解析:该题为推理判断题。根据第一段中“There had been libraries at his father’s last duty station…”一句话,特别是“There”一词,可以判断出这是个地方的名称。
答案:A
53.What was Jason’s problem?
A.The nearest library was too small for him.
B.He did not know where to borrow books.
C.He was limited to reading three books a week.
D.He could not get enough books to read from the library.
解析:该题为细节判断题。根据文章第一段的说明可以知道该城镇没有图书馆,最近的城镇有图书馆,但是每周只能借三本书。以上信息说明他没有足够的书籍来阅读。
答案:D
54.How did Jason find the Mayor’s phone number?
A.His parents helped him.
B.He found the number in the Mayor’s office.
C.The Mayor told him.
D.The writer of the story did not tell us.

B.An idea which has something to do with a certain place.

答案:C
C
It was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever imagined attending.I tore open the packet.My eyes were fixed on the word “congratulations”.I don’t remember ever smiling so wide.
Then I looked at my financial(财政的)package.
The cost of Dream School’s tuition(学费),room and board was around $40 000— an impossible sum!How could I afford to attend?What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition?My other choices were good,solid schools even if they weren’t as famous as my first choice.
In my mind,attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a world-class writer.My parents understood how I felt.They told me that even though it would be a financial problem,I could go wherever I would be happiest.But as I was always careful with money,I wasn’t sure what to do.
One of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informational dinner one night in the spring.Considering my parents’ financial difficulties,I decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend.At first,all I had planned to do was smile politely,eat free food,listen quietly.But I surprised myself.
At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus(校园)including guest lectures and social gatherings.He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events.He continued with explanations of professors,class sizes,activities,and sporting events on campus.As he spoke,I began to realize that this school,though not as good as my first choice,might be the best one for me.It seemed small yet with many great programs.It seemed challenging yet caring.
As the president ended his speech,we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs.As I walked out that door,a feeling of comfort washed over me.Looking at the campus that night,I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.
In all honesty,my university is not as well-known as my “dream”university.However,it turned out to be the right choice of schools for me.
56.How did the author feel when he started to read the letter?
A.He was full of joy.
B.He was lost in his dream.
C.He was worried about the money.
D.He was uncertain which school to go to.
解析:根据第一段最后一句话判断。
答案:A
57.We can learn from the passage that the parents were __________.
A.honest B.strict
C.supportive D.decisive
解析:根据第四段中“My parents understood how I felt.They told me that even though it would be a financial problem,I could go wherever I would be happiest.”一段话我们可以看出他的父母对他非常支持。
答案:C
58.Which of the following was not mentioned when the president of the university talked about the activities on campus at dinner?
A.Sports events.
B.Part-time jobs.
C.Clubs for students.
D.Free food.
答案:B

A.would pay for transport to the school
B.would show me around the campus
C.would offer free meals at all events
D.would charge me nothing for tuition

答案:D
60.What does the author mainly want to say?
A.Your second-choice college may actually by your best fit.
B.You should consider comfort in your choice of schools.
C.You should try your best to attend your dream school.
D.Your choice of schools should be based on their fame.

一些同学认为 | 另一些同学认为 |
1.应从儿童时期开始学习英语 2.儿童时期记忆力好,可以记住很多单词 3.能为以后的英语学习打下坚实的基础 | 1.不应从儿童时期开始学习英语 2.儿童时期既要学汉语拼音又要学英语,易混淆 3.会影响汉语学习和今后的英语学习 |
讨论未取得一致意见 |
注意:1.文章的起始句已给出;
2.词数:100左右(不包括已给的起始句);
3.参考词汇:基础—foundation
汉语拼音—Chinese pinyin
The students of Class 3 had a discussion about whether it is necessary to start learning English from childhood.
参考答案:
The students of Class 3 had a discussion about whether it is necessary to start learning English from childhood.Some of them think that English learning should start from childhood.As little boys and girls have a very good memory,they can learn a lot of English words by heart.This will help them lay a solid foundation for their future English learning.
But others do not agree.Young children have to learn Chinese pinyin at school.If they study Chinese pinyin and English at the same time,it will be very easy for them to mix them up.This will do a lot of harm not only to their Chinese learning but also to their future English learning.
In short,the students have not arrived at any agreement yet.
