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,并把正确答案写在答题卡上。
(A)
Like fine food, good writing is something we approach with pleasure and enjoy from the first taste to the last. And good writers, like good-cooks, do not suddenly appear full-blown. Quite the contrary, just as the cook has to undergo(经历) an intensive training, mastering the skills of his trade, the writer must sit at desk and devote long hours to achieving a style in his writing, whatever its purpose is; school-work, matters of business, or purely social communication. You may be sure that the more painstaking the effort, the more effective the writing, and the more rewarding.
There are still some remote places in the world where you might find a public scribe to do your business or social writing for you, for a fee. There are a few managers who are lucky enough to have the service of that rare kind of secretary who can take care of all sorts of letter writing with no more than a quick note to work from. But for most of us, if there is any writing to be done, we have to do it ourselves.
We have to write school papers, business papers or home papers. We are constantly called on to put words to paper. It would be difficult to count the number of such words, messages, letters and reports put into the mails or delivered by hand, but the daily figure must be very great. What is more, everyone who writes expects, or at least hopes that whatever we write is read, from first word to last. Not just thrown into “letters-to-be-read” file or into a wastepaper basket. This is the reason we bend our efforts toward learning and practicing the skills of interesting, effective writing.
56. In this passage, good writing is compared to fine food because .
A. both writers and cooks have to work long hours every day
B. both are necessary to life
C. both writers and cooks can earn a good living
D. both are enjoyable
57. The author thinks that the most important reason for us to practice writing skills is to .
A. earn our living B. attract others to read
C. do daily reports easily D. become good secretaries
58. According to the author, if your letter is thrown into some “letters-to-be-read” file, .
A. it will receive immediate attention B. it will be dealt with by the secretary
C. it is likely to be passed over D. it is meant to be delivered soon
59. The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to .
A. comment and blame B. introduce and describe
C. explain and persuade D. interest and inform
(B)
Everyone has a childhood full of dreams. 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 self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist, up to point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.
60. 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
61. The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because .
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
62. 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
63. 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
64. According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be .
A. full of hope B. full of enthusiasm C. knowledgeable D. self-disciplined
(C)
Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is essential to one’s life. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.
But for many people, the thought of food as the first thing in the morning is never a pleasure. So in spite of all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures could be got, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast increased by 33%-from 8.8 million to 11.7 million-according to the Chicago-based Marken Research Corporation of America.
For those who dislike eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years have shown that, for grown-ups especially. There may be nothing wrong with leaving out breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect work,” said Amold E. Bender, former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve work.”
Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better work is surprisingly inadequate (不充分的), and most of the recent work involves children, not grown-ups. “The literature,” says one researcher, Dr. Earnest Pollitt at the University of Texan, “is poor.”
65. The main idea of the passage is .
A. breakfast has nothing to do with people’s health
B. a good breakfast used to be important to us
C. breakfast is not as important to us as gasoline to a car
D. breakfast is still as important as us we thought before
66. The underlined part “nor does giving people breakfast improve work” means .
A. people without breakfast can improve their work
B. not giving people breakfast improves work
C. having breakfast does not improve work, either
D. people having breakfast do improve their work, too
67. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that
A. several studies have been done in the past years
B. the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s health
C. grown-ups have especially made studies in this field
D. eating little in the morning is good for health
68. What is implied but not stated by the author is that .
A. breakfast does not affect work
B. Dr. Pollitt works at the University of Teaxas
C. not eating breakfast might affect the health of children
D. Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London
(D)
On May 29,1973,Thomas Bradley, a black man, was elected mayor of Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the third largest city in the United States, with a population of three million. About sixteen percent of the city’s population are black.
News of this election appeared on the front pages of newspapers everywhere in the United States. Here is how one of the newspapers reported the event:
LOS ANGELES ELECTS BRADLEY
MAYOR UNSEATING YORTY
BLACK WINS 56% OF VOTES
Bradley called his victory over Yorty “the fulfillment(实现) of a dream”. During his childhood and youth, people had kept telling him, “You can’t do this, you can’t go there, because you are a Negro.” Nevertheless he had won a decisive victory over a man who had been the city’s mayor for three terms. Bradley had won 43. 7 percent.
Los Angeles has had many opportunities to judge Thomas Bradley and to form an opinion of him. The son of a poor farmer Texas, he joined the Los Angeles police force in 1940. During his twenty one years on the police force he earned a law degree by attending school at night. He was elected to the city council ten years ago.
At the time of the Los Angeles election, three other American cities already had black mayors, but none of those cites had as large a population as large a population as Los Angeles. Besides, the percentage of blacks in those other cities was much larger. Cleveland , Ohio, had thirty-six percent black when Carl Stokes was elected mayor of Cleveland in 1967. In the same year Richard Hatcher was elected mayor of Gary, Indiana, which had fifty-five percent black. In Newark, New Jersey, sixty percent of the population were black when Kenneth Gibson was elected in 1970. Thus election of a black mayor in those cities was not very surprising.
In Los Angeles thousands of white citizens voted for Thomas Bradley because they believed he would be a better mayor than the white candidate. Bradley had spent forty-eight of his fifty-five years in Los Angeles. For years ago Bradley lost mayoral election to Yorty. This time Bradley won.
69. In the author’s opinion, it was surprising that .
A.the white would vote for a black mayor
B.a black mayor would be elected in such a large city
C.a black from a poor farmer’s family could be elected mayor of Los Angeles
D.there would be so many black mayors
70.From the passage we can infer that people .
A.voted for Bradley because of his black color
B.didn’t care much about his color when they voted
C.voted for him to give him a chance to fulfill his dream
D.voted for Bradley because they trusted him
71.Bradley hit the front page headline for .
A.he was the first black mayor in the history
B.he was the first black mayor in the south of USA
C.he was the first black mayor of one of the largest cities in the USA
D.a poor farmer’s son could also win an important election
72.From Bradley’s victory in the election we can see that .
A.blacks had equal rights as whites in the USA
B.black people’s situation began to be improving much more than before
C.one can be successful through hard work in the USA no matter what color he is
D.it is certain that someday USA will have a black president
(E)
Sleeping Position and Personality
Everyone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control your behavior, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.
If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and you’re always easily upset. You’re very stubborn (顽固的), but you aren’t very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.
If you sleep curled up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you’re often defensive. You’re shy and you don’t normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You’re easily hurt.
If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weakness. You’re usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don’t often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.
73.According to the writer, you naturally show your secret and real personality .
A.only in a normal night B. only when you go to sleep
C.only when you refuse to show yourself to the world
D.only when you change sleeping position
74.Maybe you don’t want to make friends with a person who sleeps curled up. Why?
A.He/ She would rather be alone than communicate with you
B.He/ She is rarely ready to help you
C.He/ She prefers staying at home to going out
D.He/ She wouldn’t like to get help from you
75.It appears that the writer tends to think highly of the person who sleeps on one side because
A.he or she always shows sympathy for people
B.he or she is confident, but not stubborn
C.he or she has more strengths than weakness
D.he or she often considers annoying people

Over the past ten years, technologies that have combined computers with telephones have developed. Technologies such as PC fax programs and LAN fax services have been used to improve fax communications. The latest computer-based technologies are new mechanisms which use IP to send faxes, that is, IP fax.
Traditional fax has a fairly simple usage mode. First, the user inserts a document into the fax machine, enters the destination fax number and presses the start button on the machine. The sending machine dials the receiving fax machine. If it connects, the sending machine scans the document and sends it over the public switched telephone network to the receiving machine. At the same time, the receiving machine receives the document and then prints it.
In IP fax system there are two basic transmission modes: store-and –forward mode and real-time mode. Store-and –forward mode has been widely used. In this mode, the entire document is sent to a network-based server that stores it and then sends it to the destination. Real-time IP fax is similar to traditional fax. Real-time mode allows two fax machines to directly communicate through a proper standard.
IP fax enables fax document to be sent from one person to another. A fax machine or a computer can be used to send or receive the fax. IP fax also allows e-mail to be used to receive faxes. This would enable users to receive faxes anywhere, anytime with an Internet fax address.

This morning I went to a food store nearby to buy some steamed bread. After the man in the store packed the steamed bread in a small bag for me, I began to walk home with the bag in my hand. On the way I met Miss Wang, my next-door neighbour, who was taking a walk with a dog. We greeted each other and began to talk about the weather. As we were talking, her dog came up at the bag in my hand because the steamed bread gave off a delicious smell. As a result, some of the bread fell to the ground and the dog began to enjoy it.
What could we do now? Miss Wang had to say sorry with a red face. I gave the steamed bread up to her dog happily and turned to go to the food store again.
