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

In the age of reality television, success isn’t the only way to the public eye. Failure can also create fame, just like William Hung, 21, a native of Hong Kong.

Hung recently has made an agreement with US -based entertainment firms Koch Records and fuse Music Network. They will publish a full-length record, titled “The True Idol” on April 6.

The idol (偶像) is a civil engineering student at the University of California at Berkeley. He did a version (改写本) of Ricky Martin’s “She Bangs” on the television show “American Idol 3", on January27. The Fox TV singing contest searches fur pop stars among ordinary people. In the case of Hung, however, his act was so bad that the judges cut him off in mid-act Hung’s response? “I already gave my best, so I have no regrets at all.” That’s goad, because any common person would have found plenty to regret: The off-key singing. The blue Hawaiian shirt worn with pants pulled up too high. The terrible dancing. The hips jerking (摇摆) to a beat that did not belong to the song, maybe not even to this planet. It was, by all accounts, bad.

But, it was this very bad act that sold well.

Marc Juris, president of Fuse, explained it this way: “Everyone of us is happily guilty of singing our favorite song at the top of our lungs with complete freedom, completely off-key and completely unworried. That’s what William did and immediately won the hearts of America.”

Whatever it is, for the moment it’s big. Three websites devoted to Hung have gone up on the Internet in the past few weeks. Versions of his performance have been remixed with hip hop and techno music and have made it to the top 10 request list at a Chicago radio station.

So, what does Hung think of this?

“There were all these people saying things about me. A lot were saying I was very courageous and that I was great on the show, but some didn’t have much respect for me and some were kind of mean.

Now he says he’s not so sure whether to distance himself from the glamour (魅力) or to accept it. Returning to normal hasn’t been easy.

56.What is the main idea of this passage?

    A.Sometimes an idol behaves quite foolishly.

    B.Hung's performance attracted the public eye.

    C.How an unsuccessful person became famous.

    D.Success sometimes does not require hard work.

57.Hung was popular in America for all the following reasons EXCEPT ________

    A.his shirt and pants             B.his off-key singing

    C.his hips jerking              D.his excellent version

58.What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 6 refer to?

    A.William Hung.               B.Hung's bad act.

    C.Hung’s website.              D.The public’s opinion.

59.Which of the following slows the correct order of what happened to Hung?

    a.The entertainment firms made an agreement with Hung.

    b.The judges cut Hung off in mid-act in the singing contest.

    c.Hung became popular among Americans.

    d.Hung gave a terrible performance though he tried his best.

    e. Three websites put Hung’s funny performance on the Internet.

    A.d, b, e, c, a     B.a, c, d.b, e   C.a, d, b, c, e     D.d, b, a, e, c

60.Why was Hung able to win the hearts of America?

    A.His success was based on his own hard work.

    B.He attracted people’s attention in the contest.

    C.He was good-looking though he didn’t sing well.

    D.His character was completely different from other idols’.

For centuries, people wondered how big the Earth was. Unfortunately, as long as they thought the Earth was flat, no one was able to figure out its size. Gradually, however, people began to realize that the Earth was really round.

    Then, in the third century BC(2,300 years ago), a Greek man named Eratosthenes had an idea. Eratosthenes was sure that the Earth was a sphere. He used the sun and geometry to figure out the size of the Earth. He calculated that the circumference of the Earth was 28,600 miles(46,000 kilometers).The true size of the Earth is 25,000 miles(40,000 kilometers).Eratosthenes’ measurement was wrong, but it was very close to the truth.

    For many centuries after Eratoshenes lived, people made maps of the Earth. However, they did not know very much about the world outside of Europe, Asia, and north Africa. Mapmakers could not draw accurate maps of the Earth until people began traveling around the world in the fifteenth century, mapping small areas each time. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, people began making correct maps of countries, but the first accurate maps of the world were not made until the 1890s.

    Maps today are reliable, inexpensive, and easy to understand.People depend on maps every day. What would our lives be like without them?

61.A sphere is a    .

    A.large shape                     B.planet         

    C.ball                           D.member of the sun family

62.What’s a synonym(同义词)for figure out?

    A.geometry       B.calculate       C.make out       D.understand

 
63.Look at the four drawings below. Which one shows the circumference of the Earth?

64.A measurement is a    .

    A.calculation      B.kilometer       C.true statement   D.wrong statement

65.Accurate means   .

    A.big           B.nice          C.small          D.correct

Suppose a key man in your firm had just met with a terrible accident. The doctor tells you that this man upon whom you depend for directing sales, checking your books or for performing some other important roles will be laid up for months. You’d have to replace him, wouldn’t you? And probably at a pay about equal to his?

You can prevent this kind of unproductive out going on your payroll by providing your key man with the protection of Travelers Business Accident Insurance!--- This insurance provides total medical expense and a weekly income in case a key man is disabled for some time. Should the disability prove everlasting, and income for life is certainty. Why not make out a list of your key men now?

Write and we’ll serve you!

Our net-school is very helpful in many ways. First of all, it will make teaching and learning easier and more interesting. We can get more information and knowledge in class. We can communicate with other students home and abroad by sending and receiving messages wherever we’d like to. The net-school is open all day both to the students and to the techers, so we can get the latest information through the Internet at any time. The net-school is very convenient to us and other people who can learn at home if they have a computer. It will help to improve our school management and meet the needs of the modern society as well.

That’s all. Thank you.

Fame troubled Marie Curie and also her husband, because science was their world and in their world of science fame and honor had no value.

One day, when a writer for a newspaper tried to ask Marie about herself and her thoughts and her beliefs, she answered him, “In science we must be interested in things, not in people.” Much of the real character and spirit of this unusual woman is found in these few words, which she was later to repeat often. One evening, at a big party, a friend asked her if she would like to see the King of Greece, who was also a guest. She answered in her simple manner, “I do not see the value of it”. Then, seeing that she had hurt the feeling of her friend, she quickly added, “But…but…of course, I shall do whatever you please, just as you please”.
