三、阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It doesn’t matter how clever you are or how much education you’ve had, you can still improve your mind. And improving your intelligence quotient(IQ) doesn’t have to mean studying hard. There are many methods that can help your brain. Here are three of them, from the British science magazine New Scientist.
Working memory
IQ is not decided by genetics. Some methods can help increase it.
Why: Until recently, a person’s IQ was thought to be determined by genetics. But recent studies suggest that a basic brain function called working memory could increase one’s IQ. Working memory is the brain’s short-term storage system. The amount of information the working memory can hold is related to general intelligence.
How: Training helps us expand the working memory. Common training tasks include: doing math questions that have intermediate(中间的) steps; remembering the position of objects on a map; or remembering a string of digits(数字), like a phone number, without writing it down.
Body and mind
Physical exercise can help the brain as well as the body. It’s good for those who hate studying hard.
Why: Physical exercise helps the growth of new brain cells. Until recently, it was believed that we produced no new brain cells in our lifetime. But, in 2000, US scientist Fred Gage showed that even adults could grow new brain cells. He also found that exercise was one of the best ways to achieve this.
How: Simply walking for half an hour three times a week can improve learning, concentration and reasoning by 15 percent. Even more gentle exercise like yoga can do good for your brain. A study last year showed that the best way to get a mental lift is to bend over backwards.
The Mozart effect
Music may tune up your thinking. But simply turning up the sound won’t make you clever.
Why: American scientist Frances Rauscher made waves by discovering in 1995 that listening to Mozart improved people’s mathematical reasoning. Last year, Rauscher reported that Mozart’s music seemed to increase activity in genes involved in nerve-cell signaling in the brain.
How: Listening to Mozart and taking music lessons. Music lessons can really help. Six-year-old children who were given music lessons got a 2 -to 3-point increase in IQ scores. Music lessons exercise a lot of mental skills, because of the need of accurate finger movements, and listening for rhythm.
56. If you don’t like to study hard, you’d better ______ to improve your IQ.
A. listen to music B. learn how to concentrate
C. bend over backwards regularly D. try some physical exercise
57. The underlined word “this” refers to _____.
A. the improvement of one’s IQ B. the growth of new brain cells
C. physical exercise D. the study of Fred Gage
58. From the article we can conclude that it is wrong to think that _____.
- listening to Mozart improves people’s mathematical reasoning
- people can not produce new brain cells as they grow older
- children taking music lessons can increase their IQ scores
- Frances Rausher suggests people listen to Mozart
59. The main purpose of the passage is to _____.
- point out people’s wrong ideas about IQ
- report some new discoveries
- introduce some simple ways to improve people’s IQ
- tell the relationship between IQ and ways of exercising
B
HONG KONG--Disney officially opened its newest theme park in Hong Kong, its first step into the lucrative(有利的) China market.
The ceremony opening of the US $3.5-billion park kicked off with a traditional Chinese lion dance in the forecourt of Sleeping Beauty Castle.
The Hong Kong government, which chipped in 1.8 billion Hong Kong dollars of the construction cost and owned a half-share of equity in the project, is hoping the park will spur(鼓励) local tourism and bring in more than 100 billion dollars over the next 40 years.
The attraction and its two resort hotels are surrounded by mountains on lush Lantau Island, just 30 minutes away by subway from bustling central Hong Kong. It looks much like the first Disneyland in California, with a Space Mountain thrill ride, a classic Cinderella Carousel and a pink Sleeping Beauty Castle --- which Disney predicts will be one of the most photographed buildings in Asia.
Hong Kong’s government says the attraction will help turn this global financial capital into Asia’s best family holiday spot.
Disney hopes the park--- the 11th in its global empire--- will be a magnet for increasingly wealthy Chinese tourists, who have a reputation for being big-spenders.
Michael Eisner, Disney’s chief executive officer(CEO), said China and Disneyland will be a perfect match because they both value families. “You go to the park and you see mothers, daughters and kids and grandparents. The family unit in China is unbelievably strong. It’s not just Hong Kong, it’s the Chinese mainland,” Eisner said.
60. The news story is mainly about _____.
A. the opening of Hong Kong Disneyland
B. the cost of building Hong Kong Disneyland
C. the reason of building Hong Kong Disneyland
D. the development of Disney global empire
61. The underlined phrase “kicked off” in paragraph 2 probably means _____.
A. started B. hit C. removed D. ended
62. Which of the following statement is NOT true?
A. Building HK Disneyland has cost HK government 1.8 billion HK dollars.
B. HK Disneyland is expected to earn over 100 billion dollars over the next 40 years.
C. So far twelve Disneyland theme parks have been built worldwide.
D. It takes half an hour to reach HK Disneyland from city center by subway.
63. We can infer from the text that _____.
A. Sleeping Beauty Castle is among the most photographed buildings in Asia
B. Hong Kong has turned into Asia’s best family holiday spot
C. Chinese tourists are well known for spending too much money
D. Both Chinese and Americans value the importance of family units
C
The legal limit for driving after drinking alcohol is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood, when tested. But there is not sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It varies with each person depending on your weight, your sex, and what sort of drinks you’ve had. Some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks.
In fact, your drinking ability can be affected by just one or two drinks. Even if you’re below the legal limit, you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving had been affected by alcohol.
It takes about an hour for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. So, if you have a heavy drinking in the evening, you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning, or you could even find that you’re still over the legal limit. In addition, if you’ve had a few drinks at lunchtime, another one or two drinks in the early evening may well put you over the legal limit.
In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had, the more certain they were that they could drive a test course through a set of movable posts and the less able they were to do it!
So the only way to be sure you’re safe is not to drink at all.
Alcohol is a major cause of road accidents. One in three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of death among young men. More than half of people stopped by the police to take a breath analyzer test have a blood alcohol concentration of more than twice the legal limit.
It is important to remember that driving after you’ve been drinking doesn’t just affect you. If you’re involved in an accident, it affects a lot of other people as well, not least the person you might kill or injure.
64. Which of the following statements is NOT true ?
A. Three standard drinks may cause some people to reach the legal limit .
B. There is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach the legal limit .
C. The legal limit for driving after drinking is 0.08g of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood.
D. The amount of alcohol a person can drink before reaching legal limit is the same for different people.
65. We may infer that even a professional driver will find hard to pass through a set of movable posts if he drinks .
A．heavily B．a little C．every day D．occasionally
66. This passage indicates that .
A．a driver who does not take any alcohol will not die in road accidents
B．those who drink must be killed
C．more young men die in drink-related accidents than in any other way
D．one in three of the drivers often drinks a lot
67. One of the writer’s purposes in writing the passage is to tell you that .
A．young men should never drive quickly
B．driving after drinking may put many lives at risk
C．safe drinking is impossible
D．the manner of drinking is meaningless
D
BROOKSVILLE---It’s the time of year again, when young bears are on their own for the first time. And that means more sightings where bears usually aren’t supposed to be.
This weekend, a 258-pound black bear took a brief tour of Brooksville, with police and fire-fighters chasing.
Another black bear, weighing just 100 pounds, was spotted Saturday, crossing busy U.S.19 near a retirement community in Spring Hill. Several other bear reports have come from Citrus County.
“It is really difficult for the younger bears to find their own land around here,” said NiKi Everett, bear hot line director for the Gulf Coast Conservancy.
Brooksville’s bear first was spotted late Thursday crossing State Road 50, headed toward Tom Varn Park. Police and firefighters tracked the bear through the park and the Brooksville Quarry golf course.
The bear then wound down the middle of Broad Street before being surrounded near Luigi’s Pizza. An official with the Florida Game and Water fish Commission came with a tranquilizer spear(加入镇静剂的矛), planning to stick the bear by hand.
“The guy saw the size of the bear and figured that wasn’t a great idea,” said Capt. Frank Philips of the Brooksville Fire Department.
Emergency officials waited until a transquilizer gun was brought from Land O’Lakes. The bear then got a free ride to the Chassahowitzka Management Area.
It is not unusual for bears to move into living areas this time of year, experts say. Mothers give their male baby bears the boot once the youngsters are two years old. With living areas growing, the young bears keep finding smaller and smaller areas in which they can set up their own land.
“They are trying to find a land of their own, where they won’t get beat up,” said Lt.Rip Staley, a game commission spokesman.
Everett said people should not be too concerned about the recent bear sightings, since “we have never had a bear attack in Florida.”
Black bears mainly eat the tender and fresh leaves of Sabal palms, as well as corns and berries. Recent weeks of dry weather likely have reduced their food supply. “If we don’t get some relief soon,” Everett said, “we’re probably going to see a lot more of it.”
68. What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. Bear sightings in living areas worry people
B. Policemen try hard to get the bears controlled
C. People take up too much land from bears
D. Bears come out to disturb people’s lives
69. Which is true according to the passage?
A. The 100-pound bear was caught near Luigi’s Pizza.
B. The Gulf Coast Conservancy makes bears homeless
C. Brooksville’s bear was too large to be caught by hand.
D. Bears frequently visit humans’ living areas.
70. Bear sightings can usually be expected_______.
A. in the cold season B. in the warm season
C. near lakes or rivers D. near Luigi’s Pizza.
71. The underlined phrase “give their male baby bears the boot” means____.
A. make them wear the boots B. find new homes for them
C. drive them away from them D. keep them in safe places

A proud father has named his son after a computer software term.
Jon Blake Cusack, from Mocjogam, told local newspapers the US traditional way of adding “Junior” or “II” after a boy’s name was too common.
So, when his son was born last week, he decided on the name Jon Blake Cusack2.0, as if he were a software upgrade.
Mr. Cusack admitted that it took months to persuade his wife, Jamie, to accept the idea .
Mrs. Cusack said she asked several friends whether they could accept this name or not.
All the men, she said, felt the name was “cool”. However, her women friends did not think so. “I think the women end up like it,” she said.
Mr. Cusack told the local newspaper he got the idea from a film called The Legend of 1900, in which an abandoned baby is given the name 1900 to remember the year of its birth.
“I thought that if they can do it, why can’t we?” he said.
After little Jon version 2.0 was born, Mr. Cusack even sent a celebratory e-mail to the family and friends designed to look as though he and his wife had created a new software.
“I wrote things like there are a lot of new features from Version 1.0 with additional features from Jamie”, he said. And he is already planning for his son’s future. “If he has a child, he could name it 3.0”, he said.
72．From the passage we know that “Jon Blake Cusack 2.0” .
A．shows the traditional way of America baby naming
B．is also the name of a computer
C．has the same meaning as “Jon Blake Cusack Junior”
D．tells something about the hope the father places on his baby
73．What do the name of “1900”and “Jon Version 2.0” have in common?
A．They are both connected with computer. B．They are both untraditional.
C．They both tell about the births. D．They are to be equally popular.
74．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Mrs. Cusack didn’t agree to name her son after a computer software term at the very beginning.
B．All Mrs. Cusack’s friends support their idea.
C．When Mr. Cusack had a second child, he would name it “Jon Version 3.0”.
D．The name “1900” is also a computer software term.
75．What does Mr. Cusack’s “Version 1.0” refer to in the last paragraph?

C．Mr. Cusack and his wife. D．Mr. Cusack’s grandson.

Dear Sir/ Madam,
We are glad to know that you are going to take over and rebuild Tourists’ Hotel. The people living in Xiangyang Residential Area next to your hotel ask me to write to you about the problems we are facing. Our residential area sits next to your hotel. The traffic jams caused by cars and trucks coming into and out of the parking lot often result in inconvenience. And children also find it unsafe to go to school, which is opposite the hotel. We cannot put up with the noise from the karaoke hall any more. Dirty water from the kitchen flows into our courtyard and it smells terrible. All the people living here are looking forward to effective changes that you are going to bring about.
Best wishes,
Yours truly,
Li Hua
