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，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项。
A
Scientists have tried to come up with biological explanations for the difference between boys and girls．
However, none were believable enough to explain the general picture．As one scientist points out，“There are slight genetic differences between the sexes at birth which may affect the subjects boys and girls choose．But the difficulty is that by the time children reach school age， there are so many other effects that it is almost impossible to tell whether girls are worse at science and maths，or whether they’ve been brought up to think of these subjects as boys’‘territory’”．
Statistics show that in mathematics，at least，girls are equal to boys．A recent report suggests that girls only stop studying mathematics because of social attitudes．One of the reports’ authors says，“While it is socially unacceptable for people not to be able to read and write，it is still acceptable for women to say that they are ‘hope-less’ at maths．Our research shows that，although girls get marks which are as good as the boys’，they have not been encouraged to do so.”
The
explanation for the difference，which is very clear during the teenage years，goes as far back as early childhood
experiences．From their
first days in nursery school，girls are not encouraged to work on- their own or to complete tasks，although boys are．For example，boys and not girls，are often asked to ‘help’ with
repair work．This
encouragement leads to a way of learning how to solve problems later on in life
．Evidence
shows that exceptional mathematicians and scientists did not have teachers who
supplied answers；they had to
find out for themselves．
A further report on maths teaching shows that teachers seem to give more attention to boys than to girls．
Most teachers who took part in the study admitted that they expect their male students to do better at mathematics and science subjects than their female students．All of this tends to encourage boys to work harder in these subjects，gives them confidence and makes them believe that they can succeed．
Interestingly，both boys and girls tend to regard such ‘male’ subjects like mathematics and science as difficult．Yet it has been suggested that girls avoid mathematics courses，not because they are difficult，but for social reasons．
Mathematics and science are mainly male subjects，and therefore，as girls become teenagers，they are less likely to take them up ．Girls do not seem to want to be in open competition with boys ．Neither do they want to do better than boys because they are afraid to appear less female and so，less attractive．
56．The word “territory” in the second paragraph most probably means“_____”．
A．interest YCY B．area of
land C．special field D．district
57．According to scientific studies，_________．
A．maths is not fit for girls to learn
B．boys have a special sense of maths
C．girls are poorer at maths because they are the weaker sex
D．girls can learn maths as well as boys if given enough encouragement
58．Those who made extraordinary contribution in mathematics and science_____．
A．usually had good teachers to help them
B．had the abilities to solve problems by themselves
C．usually worked harder than others
D．were encouraged to repair things when young
59．What would be the best title for the text?
A．Who’s Afraid of Maths Anyway?
B．Are Boys Cleverer than Girls?
C．Boys Are Better at Maths than Girls by Birth
D．Maths-A Difficult Subject
B
ANXIOUS parents in the areas around Washington，us，accompanied their children to school，or kept them at home，after a middle-school student became victim No．8，in a series of shootings in the shootings started on October 2．
The
13-year-old youth，an
eighth-grader，was struck in
the chest by a high-powered bullet on October7．He was hit as he was being dropped off in front of his school by his
aunt on October 7．
“I can’t stop going to work，the children can’t stop going to school，”said Henry Ollie，48．
He led his 12-year-old son，Charles，to the front door of the school，where the latest shooting
happened. Ordinarily，Charles takes the bus．Some buses arrived at schools carrying fewer students than usual．And schools where parents usually line up their cars to drop off youngsters had no traffic problems because so many parents had kept their children at home ．The middle school boy is still in bad condition after having about two and a half hours of operation on the night of the shooting．He is the youngest of the nine victims，including one was shot dead on October 9．
All the victims，seven dead and two wounded，were in public place doing ordinary things．They were working at grass，filling a gas tank or walking into a supermarket．
“All of our victims have been defenseless，but to kill children is one step too far．Our children don't deserve this,”said police Charles Moose．（From New York Times）
60．How many victims had been killed in the series of shootings around Washington before October 7?
A．Seven． B．Six. C．Nine． D．Eight．
61．Why did many parents keep their children at home?
A．Because the shooting made them frightened．
B．Because the school asked them to do so．
C．Because the children were afraid of the shooting．
D．Because the parents were worried about the safety of their children．
62．The phrase“drop off”in the passage means_________．
A．fall off something B．get away from the driver
C．send sb．off a car or a bus D．send the children to school
C
Evaluating employee performance is a key area of management skills．The challenge is to give the employees an accurate picture of their accomplishments，and of the areas in which they need to improve．Both are important：accomplishments because they give the employee a sense of pride in the work and a basis on which to build future achievements，and areas for improvement，because they give the employee some goal to reach for．
Often，employees fear that the evaluation will be a negative experience．This fear alone can result in defensiveness and tension ．The manager must take pains to lessen the employee’s fear and make the evaluation a participatory（参与的）event. An employee who contributes ideas to his or her evaluation will be much more likely to agree with the outcome and be willing to follow the suggestions．
The
employee appraisal system is to improve employee performance. While areas
needing improvement must be reviewed，this should always be done in the spirit of discovering goals the
employee can work toward．This holds true for reviewing successes as well．While praise for past achievements
may be used as a reward，at the time of the evaluation，the primary reason to look at a person's success is to determine
areas in which he or she can continue to excel．
Perhaps the most effective way to make the evaluation a participatory event is to ask the employee to come prepared to the meeting．The employer and employee each should carefully review the job description prior to the evaluation meeting and should make notes on areas in which the employee had difficulty or has made a contribution．It is important that these notes be specific；"Does a good job" is not nearly as meaningful as“Increased productivity by 35％”．
Both parties should also draw up a short list of goals for the employee to achieve during the next evaluation period ．Ideally，these goals should build upon the known strengths and successes of the employee ．However，areas needing improvement must also be addressed．
63．According to the passage，employees being evaluated________．
A．are often those who have newly obtained the job
B．often feel fearful and anxious
C．often have the feeling of being looked down upon
D．are often proud and confident
64．One way to make the employee being evaluated relax is to________．
A．ask the employee to contribute ideas
B．serve biscuits and coffee at the meeting
C．make the mood of the meeting comfortable
D．focus only on the employee’s accomplishments
65．The main purpose of the employee appraisal system is to_______．
A．get the employee to agree with the goals set
B．create a relaxing and encouraging climate
C．help the employees to do an even better job
D．dismiss the employee who isn’t working hard
66．The goals for the future work should_________．
A．be in a new area needing improvement
B．require great strengths of the employees
C．be within the list of the company goals
D．be based on the employee's past achievement
67．What is the main topic of the passage?
A．Management skills．
B．Performance evaluation．
C．How to make the employees more productive．
D．How to find incompetent employees．
D
We had just got above the clouds over the airport when a calm voice said over the loudspeaker，“For technical reasons we shall be returning immediately to London Airport．Please keep your seatbelts fastened.”
I was rather surprised．I took a look at the old lady next to me．She had been very chatty while we were waiting to take off．
“I’m going to New York to visit my daughter there．I always sleep wonderfully whenever I get into a plane，"she had told me．
And indeed，she seemed to be in a very deep sleep already．
Just then a passenger behind me shouted
madly，"Oh，my God！The wing's on fire!”
I looked out of the window and my blood froze．Smoke and flames were pouring out of one of the engines．The plane was already turning and losing altitude fast．
"What’s happening? Are you going to crash?”an American in front of me demanded．
The crew（机组人员）were already moving up and down the passage, comforting people and saying things like，“It’s just all right．There is no need to worry．Now，if you just sit still，everything will be all right．Don’t get up．Don’t be upset．”
I looked out again．The ground was rushing up at us
with shocking speed．We were already so low that I could make out cars and even people．
“It’s only a slight emergency，”an airhostess told me with a tense smile． Suddenly there was hitting and striking and we were rushing along the runway at a terrifying speed．The engines roared loudly．We came to a trembling stop．The crew quickly opened the emergency exits and passengers began sliding down huge，stocking-like chutes（滑道）to the ground ．A fire engine was already putting out the fire in one engine．I had to shake the old lady hard to wake her up．"What’s wrong? Surely the journey isn’t over yet！I mean，have we got to New York?”she asked sleepily.
68．The accident happened
A．just before the plane took off
B．when the plane was passing over London Airport
C．the moment the plane was ready to land in New York
D．just after the plane got above the clouds
69．After the plane finally landed，____________.
A．the passengers went out from the
plane gate
B．the passengers thought they had got to New York
C．the old lady had no idea where they were
D．the old lady woke up by herself
70．From the passage we can infer that
A．the old lady was so scared that she dared not open her eyes
B．the rescue worked quite well
C．all people on board were upset
D．The passenger behind the writer went mad at the sight of the fire
71．The underlined word“altitude" in the 6th paragraph means ．
A．flames B．height C．poisonous gas D．attitude
E
“I’ve changed my, mind．I wanted to have a telescope，but now I want my daddy back．”Lucien Lawrence’s letter to Father Christmas written after his schoolteacher father had been knifed to death outside his school gate，must have touched every heart．Lucien went on to say that without his father he couldn't see the stars in the sky．When those whom we love depart from us，we cannot see the stars for a while．
But，Lucien，the stars are still there，and one day，when you are older and your tears
have gone，you will see
them again．And，in a strange way，I expect that you will find your father
is there too，in your mind
and in your heart．I find that
my parents，long dead now，still figure in many of my dreams
and that I think of them perhaps more than I ever did when they were alive．I still live to please them and I'm
still surprised by their reactions．I remember that when I became a professor，I was so proud，or rather so pleased with myself，that I couldn’t wait to cable my
parents．The reply was
a long time in coming，but when it did，all mother said was“I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children！”I haven’t forgotten．The values of my parents still live
on．
It makes me pause and think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care ．Would I have been as ready as Philip Lawrence have been to face the aggressors（挑衅者），and to lay down my life for those in my care? How many people would want me back for Christmas? It's a serious thought，one to give me pause．
I pray silently，something in the dead of night，that ancient cry of a poet "Deliver my soul from the sword（剑），and my darling from the power of the God．”Yet I know that death comes to us all，and sometimes comes suddenly．We must therefore plan not to live forever，but live as if we will die tomorrow．We live on，I’m sure，in the lives of those we loved，and therefore we ought to have to care for what they will remember and what they will treasure．If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true，there might be fewer knives on our streets today．
72．According to the whole text we can see that the first paragraph__________.
A．talks about the miserable childhood of the author
B．shows the author’s pity on the kid
C．acts as an introduction to the discussion
D．makes a clear statement of the author’s views

A．how much he misses his parents now

C．when Lucien will get over all his sadness
D．how proud he was when he succeeded in life

W：I want to ask you the same question. Why cannot smokers just go outside if they want to
smoke?
M：Well, smoking is part of my lifestyle. I can think better if I have a cigarette.
W：I can breathe better if I don't have to breathe smoke. Smoking is bad for your health.
Doctors say that just breathing in other people's smoke can also cause cancer.
M：Well, I’m a smoker, and my health is good.
W：Yes . But will it be good in fifteen years? -
M：I hope so.
W：I hope so, too. I think we'll just have to agree to disagree about this subject. Do you want
to watch the debate with me?
M：Sure.

In
Britain, if you break the law, you can be sent to prison or be fined or be
ordered to do community work such as cleaning public places and helping the
old. There are two sorts of prisons. The open sort and the closed sort. In the
closed sort,. prisoners are given very little freedom. They spend three to ten
hours outside their rooms when they exercise, eat, study, learn skills, watch
TV and talk to other prisoners. All prisoners are expected to work. Most of
them are paid for what they do, whether it is cooking or cleaning. Prisoners in
open prisons are locked up at night, but for the best of the time, they are
free within the prison grounds, They can exercise, have visitors, or study. And
some are allowed out of the ground to study or to do community work.

Dear Editor,
The 29th Olympic Games will be held in Beijing in 2008. Recently our class have had a discussion about its effects on Beijing.
Some students believe there are many good effects. They think the Olympics will encourage people in Beijing to learn English harder, help more people find jobs, prosper tourism and make Beijing more beautiful. Besides it will make China better known to the world. The others think the Olympics will also bring some trouble. For example, at that time, the traffic will be heavier and the environment will be destroyed. Furthermore, holding the Olympic Games will also cause more pollution and waste resources.
As a saying goes, a coin has two sides. So I think the Olympics have both good and bad effects. And it is certain that our government will do something to avoid the bad. What is more, our competitors will do better in the 2008 Olympic Games.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
