阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从36-55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳答案。
Lose-Win is weak. It’s easy to get stepped on. It’s easy to be the nice guy. It’s easy to give in, all in the name of being a peacemaker.
A girl named Jenny once told me about her 36 in the world of Lose Win during her eighth grade year before she finally broke 37 :
My 38 with my mom all started one day 39 she said to me sarcastically(讽刺地)，“Wow, you’re sure sassy today.” I 40 it so literally (字面地) that then and there I decided to close myself off from her and never 41 back to her. So every time she would say something 42 I disagreed with her I would just say, “Okay, 43 you want, Mom”
But I really got cold quickly. And my 44 began to build. One night I talked to my mom about the school homework and she said, “Oh, that’s 45 ”and then went back to mop the floor.
“Don’t you ever 46 ?”I thought. But I didn’t say anything and stormed off. She had no idea I was 47 upset. She would have been willing to talk to me had I 48 her how important it was to me.
At last, I just blew up. “Mom, this has got to 49 . You tell me everything you want me to do and I just do it because it’s 50 than fighting. Well, I’m sick of it.” This all came as a 51 to her.
After my blowup, we felt like we were 52 all over in our relationship. But it’s getting better all the time. We discuss things now and I always 53 my feeling with her.
If you adopt Lose Win as your basic 54 toward life, then people will wipe their dirty feet on you. You’ll also be 55 your true feelings deep inside. And that’s not healthy.

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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought up in the same way,my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them,I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.
Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents,aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects.
I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm had led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil reading about other people's observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.
But curiosity,a keen eye,a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is selfdiscipline, a quality I lack. A scientist, up to a certain point,can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two,you get the best of both worlds.
56.The first paragraph tells us the author .
A.was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood
B.lost his hearing when he was a child
C.didn’t like his brothers and sisters
D.was born to a naturalist’s family

A.he didn’t live very long with them
B.the family was extremely large
C.he was too young when he lived with them
D.he was fully occupied with observing nature
58.It can be inferred from the passage that the author was .
A.a scientist as well as a naturalist
B.a naturalist but not a scientist
C.no more than a born naturalist
D.first of all a scientist
59.The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he .
A.has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic
B.lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist
C.just reads about other people’s observations and discoveries
D.comes up with solutions in a most natural way
B

In only two decades Asian Americans have become the fastestgrowing U. S. minority. As their children began moving up through the nation schools, it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was emerging. Their achievements are reflected in the nation’s best universities, where mathematics, science and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their education abroad arrived in the U. S. with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English. They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively. And the return on the investment in education is more immediate in something like engineering than with an arts degree.
Most AsianAmerican students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that breeds success, such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education.
Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese,Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the victims of social isolation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship.
63.While making tremendous achievements at college, AsianAmerican students .
A.feel they are mistreated because of limited knowledge of English
B.are afraid that their academic successes bear a strong Asian character
C.still worry about unfair treatment in society
D.generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their parents
64.What are the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans?
A.A solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian culture.
B.Hard work and intelligence.
C.Parents’ help and a limited knowledge of English.
D.Asian culture and the American educational systerm.
65.Few Asian American students major in human sciences mainly because .
A.their English is not good enough
B.they are afraid they might meet with unfair judgment in these areas
C.there is a wide difference between Asian and Western cultures
D.they know little about American culture and society
66.Why do “both explanations” (Para. 3) worry Asian Americans?
A.They are afraid that they will again be isloated from American society in general.
B.People will think that Asian students rely on their parents for success.
C.Asian Americans will be a threat to other minorities.
D.American academic achievements have taken on too strong an Asian character.

How to eat healthfully can be espeically complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else). Registered dietitian(营养专家)Barhara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.
“Go for nutrientdense foods,”she suggests, “foods that contain a multiple of nutrients. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink, which contains only a small percentage of real juice-the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can’t compare the value of these foods, the nutrientdense ones are so superior, ”she emphasizes.
Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life—it’s the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets which are based on one or two foods are not only virtually impossible to keep up the strength, they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren’t supplied in sufficient amounts or balance.
According to Morrissey, trying to find a diet that can cure your illnesses, or make you superwoman is a fruitless search. As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.
“We need carbohydrates, protein and fat—they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are like the match, the spark, for the fuel,”she explains. “We need them all, but in a very different proportions. And if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless.”
67.From the paragraph we know that working women .
A. think cooking is especially complicated
B. do not share the same views with registered dietitians
C. are busy and not interested in cooking
D. are likely to eat healthfully
68.Orange juice is different from orange drink in that .
A.it contains only a small percentage of real juice
B.it is natural, nutritious and prepared from real oranges
C.it is largely orangecolored sugar water
D.it produces nothing but calories
69.In Paragraph 4, “a fruitless search”means .
A.an effort with no results
B.a search for a diet without fruits
C.a research on fruitless diet
D.a diet serving as medicine
70.Many women take it for granted, according to passage that .
A.a balanced diet can result in being fat
B.staying thin and healthy are both possible
C.lack of variety in diets leads to staying thin
D.vitamins are some kind of subsitutions for food
71.By “if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless”,the author means .
A.carbohydrates, protein and fat are enough to support a human life
B.vitamins and minerals are virtually of no value
C.carbohydrates, protein and fat are as important as vitamins and minerals
D.without carbohydrates, protein and fat, vitamins and minerals are of no use

Does a drink a day keep heart attacks away? Over the past 20 years, numerous studies have found that moderate alcohol consumption, say, one or two beers, glasses of wine or cocktails daily helps to prevent coronary heart disease. Last week a report in the New England Journal of Medicine added strong new evidence in suport of that theory. More important, the work provided the first solid indiction of how alcohol works to protect the heart.
In the study, researchers from Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School compared the drinking habits of 340 men and women who had suffered recent heart attack with those of healthy people of the same age and sex. The scientists found that people who sip one to three drinks a day are about half as likely to suffer heart attacks as nondrinkers are. The apparent source of the protection: those who drank alcohol had higher blood levels of highdensity lipoproteins, the socalled good cholesterol, which is known to prevent heart disease.
As evidence has mounted, some doctors have begun recommending a daily drink for patients of heart diseases. But most physicians are not ready to reommend a regular happy hour for everyone. The risks of teetotalling(绝对戒酒) are nothing compared with the dangers of too much alcohol, including high blood pressure, strokes and liver troubles—not to mention violent behaviour and traffic accidents. Moreover, some studies suggest that even moderate drinking may increase the incidence of breast and colon cancer. Until there is evidence that the benefits of a daily dose of alcohol outweigh the risks, most people won’t be able to take a doctor’s prescription to the neighbourhood bar or liquor store.
72.The medical article quoted in the first paragraph indicates .
A. the way in which alcohol can help the heart
B. how a couple of cocktails daily can stop heart problems
C. why alcoholic drinks are dangerous to one’s health
D. that reports on the advantages of alcohol were misled
73.Experiments showed that nondrinkers had .
A.larger amounts of good cholesterol
B.smaller amounts of good cholesterol
C.higher blood pressure
D.lower blood pressure
74.According to the passage, moderate drinking .
A. is recommended by most doctors for heart patients
B. should be allowed on prescription
C. is still not medically advisable
D. is not related to liver problems
75.The main theme of this passage is .
A. the change in recent drinking habits
B. the connection between cancer and alcohol
C. whether moderate drinkers outlive nondrinkers
D. whether alcohol may be good for one’s health

W:Single or return?
M:Single, please.
Text 2
W:Can I help you?
M:Yeah, I want a shared room for one night. How much is that?
W:It is 25 pounds. Can I have your passport?
M:Here you are.
Text 3
M:Well, how about going out for a dinner? My treat!
W:Thanks, but I have just had.
Text 4
W:So, what do you think? Do they fit me?
M:They are nice jeans, but too tight.
W:Well, I’ll leave them, then.
Text 5
M:Are you leaving?
W:I am afraid so.
M:Why not stay a few more days until Tom comes back?
W:Well, don’t you know he is the last man I want to see?
Text 6
M:Where were you when the accident happened?
W:I was driving the blue car.
M:What did you see?
W:I saw a truck coming from the other side. A young man was riding a bike. He suddenly turned left. And he was hurt before the truck driver stopped his car.
M:Was the truck going at high speed?
W:I don’t think so. If it had been at high speed, the boy would have been killed.
M:OK. Thank you. Would you leave your name and address here?
W:All right.
Text 7
M:So your plane landed in San Francisco that morning.
W:Yeah. We stayed there for two days and on the third day we flew to Los Angeles. Three days later we arrived in Washington. We spent two days there.
M:Did you travel in New York?
W:Sure. We were there for four days and then left for Toronto.
M:And Ottawa?
W:Yes. We finished our travel in Sydney and then flew back to London.

Text 8
W:In what way is your school different from other schools?
M:Our school is for all children. A few of the children are physically disabled, and some of the others have learning difficulties. We have fast learners and slower learners.
W:And is yours the only school like this?
M:That’s correct. Up till now, disabled children and those with learning difficulties were sent to special school. They grew up in a different world.
W:What made you decide to start this new school?
M:We realized that disabled children had no knowledge of children in ordinary schools. The opposite was also true. We thought it was important that all human beings should grow up together.
W:Do the slower learners hold up the faster learners?
M:No. For some classes, slower and faster learners are separated. In other classes they all work together.
W:How does that work?
M:Well. The faster learners help the slower learners. That way they become very skilled as teachers. When it’s time for the faster learners to do a task or do their homework, they do it more quickly and better too.
Text 9
M:So, how much money have we got to spend?
W:Seven hundred and fifty thousand pounds. What do you suggest?
M:I suggest that we use mainly TV, cinema and print.
W:I see, magazines and newspapers. Can you give me your reasons?
M:Sure. First, our product looks good. So it would be a waste of money to use radio. Second, our product moves well, and it moves fast. So I want people to see it on the roads in our ads.
W:What about advertising boards?
M:No, I prefer magazines and newspapers, and we haven’t got the money to do all three. So people will see the ad on TV and in the cinema. Then they’ll be able to read all about it when they’re sitting down, reading their newspapers and magazines.
W:When do you want the advertising to start?
M:May 1st. That gives us three months to run to August 1 st when most people like to buy their new cars.
W:I see.

The first thing I did when I woke up in the morning was watch the TV news. I could see that the situation was bad, and they showed a map where the fires were burning. Outside in the garden. I couldn’t see the sun, as the sky was full of smoke. I decided I’d better prepare to leave. My son was staying in town and my husband was abroad so it was up to me to decide what to do. I packed a suitcase of clothes and another case of useful things. It’s difficult in this kind of situation to know what to take with you. So I took my passport and my bankbook and all the money I had. Out in the garden the sky was getting blacker, and the wind which had been blowing hard for two days was getting stronger. I could now hear the sound of the fire which was only a mile or two away. I got into my car and drove down the road. The smoke was thick and at times it was difficult to see the road. Animals were running across the road, trying to escape the fire. Five miles down the road I came to a long bridge over the river. Once on the other side, I knew I was safe.

23.C 指从过去一直延续到现在的状况。
24.B 是If I had known you were coming today的倒装形式。
25.D 表“是刚成年的成年人而不是年长的成年人”之意，故应用rather than。
26.B 指对话之前的动作，应用一般过去时。
27.A 数词应位于as之前，此句是twice as much money as he would do的省略形式。
28.C one表泛指，相当于any job之意。
29.D challenge同ideas之间存在被动关系。句子表“当年牛顿的许多想法受到了质疑”之意。
30.C 在牛造成损坏前，他们决定把它赶走。
31.D 下句是一个简略回答，a man 是won的主语，claiming...in the city为后置定语，修饰a man,表主动。
32.D 由After the balloon was freed of the burden of ice转换而成。
33.B 表很小可能性的推测，这一点由I haven’t been told about it可知。
34.B lay off作“解雇”讲。lay out 布置，安排，设计;lay aside把……放在一起；lay down放下。
35.B “the+adj.”表一类人，the young年青人。 a hot and serious topic 一个热门而严肃的话题，表“数量”。
36.A 通过下文看，Jenny讲述了自己从忍气吞声到最终摆脱出来的过程。而在此过程中，她经历了从妥协到气愤以至最后跟妈妈理论争得尊严的过程。因此，选“徘徊”最能说明这个过程。
37.D break free“挣脱”，“获得心灵、精神上的解放”，符合Jenny争得自己尊严的结果。
38.B 从后文看，这儿指的是“我”跟妈妈的“问题、矛盾”的出现。
39.C when引导定语从句，修饰前面的名词day,本身作状语。
40.D take此处意思是“接受、理解”之意，此处指作者并未真正了解妈妈对她的讽刺口吻，仅仅理解她所说的话的字面意义。
41.C talk back“还嘴、顶嘴”，此处指Jenny决定忍气吞声，不跟妈妈顶嘴。
42.A even if引导让步状语从句，当“即使”讲，Jenny此处决定即使妈妈说的不对，也不去顶撞她。
43.B 此处指Jenny总是不顶撞妈妈，妈妈说什么就是什么，因此用whatever“无论什么”。
44.B Jenny虽然不顶撞妈妈，但内心的“怒气”在聚集。
45.C 理解下文Jenny生气可知，此处是妈妈“敷衍”我的话，意为“好啊”，表现出妈妈对我的学业漠不关心。
46.A care当“关心、在乎”讲，此处Jenny在内心里反问：妈妈关心过我吗？
47.C even此处用来加强语气。进一步说明妈妈对“我”漠不关心，意为：她甚至不知道我生气了。also, still, already均不合逻辑。
48.D 此处句子结构是虚拟语气，假如我“告诉”妈妈，她会明白学业对我来说有多么重要。
49.B Jenny最后终于爆发，对妈妈说：这一切需要“改变”了。Jenny不能再忍气吞声下去了。
50.B Jenny在申诉：忍气吞声是为了避免跟妈妈发生冲突，为了大家好，即：我忍气吞声总比与你发生争执来对大家说“更容易”。
51.A 表示妈妈没有预料到“我”会这么生气，而且向她申诉。surprise用作可数名词，当“令人吃惊的事情”讲。
52.B 表示“我”和妈妈的关系有了新的“开始”。start all over表示“重新开始”。
53.A share\:with\:与妈妈分享（交流）自己的感情，符合题意跟搭配关系。
54.C 后面的介词是toward,因此只有选“态度”才符合题意跟搭配关系。
55.D Jenny最后发表议论，“忍气吞声”、把自己的真实感情“隐藏”起来对健康不利。
56.A 第一段告诉我们，童年的作者对花和昆虫感兴趣。作者在第一段说“Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects.”此句暗示作者自己则坚持了下来。因此A为正确答案。B、C和D的内容与本文无关。
57.D 因为他把注意力全放在观察自然上了。第二段最后一句明确说明了这一问题的原因。
58.A 作者既是一位博物学家，也是一位科学家。这一点可从第三段最后一句推测而出。作者称自己不是一位科学家是在谦虚。D不对，B和C为文中的明确表述，而不是推测的结果。
59.B 作者在最后一段指出“\:one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self\discipline, a quality I lack”，由此可知B为正确答案。
60.B 从what’s not included可以看出injury to the driver属于个人事故。
61.C 从租车的第三个条件a particular car cannot be guaranteed 可以看出特殊车辆无法保证。
62.C 单方面取消合同，预交合同费从不退还。
63.C 文章第三段第一句明确指出，“Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image.”此句中“feed a typical racial image”意为“培养了一种典型的种族形象”，即担心因与众不同更易受到歧视与孤立。因此C“仍然担心社会的不公正对待”为正确答案。
64.A 亚裔美国人成功的主要因素是数学基础坚实，亚洲文化历来重视教育。文章前两段分析了亚裔学生主要在理工科方面学业突出的原因，即有坚实的数学基础和父母的言传身教。B也是成功的因素之一，但文章并示提到；C中“a limited knowledge of English”不是主要原因；D中的“the American educational system”为所有学生提供的机会是均等的，不是亚裔学生成功的根本原因。
65.B 亚裔学生很少主修人文科学是因为担心会受到不公平对待。根据文章第一段倒数第二句“Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathermatics and science because they will be judged more objectively”可推断，对人文科学成就的评价带有主观因素，因而更容易受到不公正对等。A、C、D并不是主要原因。
66.A 从最后一段判断，亚裔美国学生担心自己的突出成就会使自己再次成为社会孤立的对象。因此A为正确答案。
67.C 从第一段可以知道职业妇女忙，对做饭不感兴趣，从第一段的“have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves”(即没有愿望也没有时间为她们自己做饭)可以看出C项正确。
68.B 橘汁和橘汁饮料的区别在于橘汁是自然的，有营养的，是直接从橘子中来的。橘汁和橘汁饮料的区别在第二段中曾经谈到过，即橘汁饮料“contains only a small percentage of real juice—the rest is largely colored sugar water”(只包含很少比例的真正橘汁——其他大都是加了色素的糖水)。因此，相对而言，橘汁是natural, nutritious and prepared from oranges(天然的、有营养的、直接从橘子中来的健康饮料)。
69.A a fruitless search 意思为“没有结果的努力”，文中第四段谈到“试图寻找一种可以包治百病，又能使你成为超人的食谱是徒劳的”。因此，a fruitless search表示毫无结果的努力。fruitless的引申意义为没有结果的，徒劳的。
70.D 许多妇女想当然地认为维他命是一种食物的代替品。文中第四段提到“As women,\:we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food”。
71.D 通过引用“要是没有燃料，光有火花是不行的”。作者的意思是没有碳水化合物，蛋白质和脂肪，维他命和矿物质没有用处。文中最后一段在谈到碳水化合物、蛋白质、脂肪和维生素、矿物质的关系时，作者将碳水化合物、蛋白质、脂肪比作木材、燃料，维他命和矿物比作火柴、火花。引用专家的话说，“要是没有燃料，光有火花是不行的”。
72.B 第一段第一句是一个问题，第二句是对这个问题的回答。然后在第三句话中作者又引用了新英格兰医学杂志上的一篇文章来进一步支持这一理论，故B为正确答案。
73.B 作者在第二段中先对实例进行对比。在本段最后一句指出，明显的保护源是饮酒者的高密脂蛋白中的含量更高，即所谓的好的胆固醇高，可抑止心脏病。由此推知不饮酒者的“好的胆固醇少”，这正是B的内容。
74.C 由最后一段可知，即使是适当饮酒，也有两种不同的态度：有些医生建议心脏病患者每天喝上一点，可大多数医生并不准备这么做。此外，有的研究报告指出适当饮酒可能增加乳房和结肠癌的患病率。由此可知，C为正确答案。
75.D 全文主要说明饮酒是否对健康有好处。
76.∧visit→avisit是可数名词，此处表“一次访问”之意。
77.√
78.去掉fits前的itwhich是定语从句的关系代词，已作fits的主语，故不能用it。
79.places由many可知，place应用复数形式。
80.on→ofa tour of... 游览某地。
81.it→that指代前面提到的事。
82.couldcan,此处不表过去意义。
83.But→And前后表并列关系。
84.∧bring→toremember to do sth. 记住应做某事。
85.our→your由you will 可知，此处应用your。

Recently we have had a heated discussion on whether people should keep pets at home in cities.Some students think it’s a good idea t keep pets because many old people who live along at home can get some comfort from pets. Besides, getting along well with animals will make our life interesting.On the other hand, the other students are against the idea. In their opinions, if too many people keep pets at home, it is bad for the envirornment. What is worse, pets may make too much noise and even attack people.I like animals, so I don’t think it’s bad to keep pets at home. But we must take some measures to prevent them from polluting our environment.
