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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.
A
Happy birthday! Do birthdays really make people happy? Of course they do. Birthdays celebrate the day we were born. Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of growth and maturity(成熟) – or so we hope. We all like to imagine that we’re getting wiser and not just older. Most of us enjoy seeing the miracle of growth in others, as well. For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud. For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process. But growing old? That’s a different story.
Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented American culture. Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young. As the old saying goes, “You’re as young as you feel.” Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old. People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor those that are young, or at least “young at heart”.
Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything but golden. Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just to get by. Retirement at age 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income. Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference. Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, medical care and housing. Some even experience age discrimination（歧视）. In 1987, American sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets. She was often treated rudely—even cheated and robbed. However, dressed as a young person, she received much more respect.
Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing fast. Why? People are living together. Fewer babies are being born. And middle-aged “baby borners” are rapidly entering the groups of the elderly. America may soon be a place where wrinkles(皱纹) are “in”. Marketing experts are already noticing this group of consumers.
….
56. We can infer from the second paragraph that ________.
A. young people lack experience and wisdom
B. American older people often joke about their old age
C. American culture is very young
D. different countries have different opinions on the old age
57. The main idea of the third paragraph is __________.
A. The golden years can make the old earn lots of money and receive good medical care
B. The old people in America are leading a hard life without good nutrition, medical care or housing
C. The old in America have to retire at the age of 65
D. American social security benefits are not good
58. From the last paragraph we know that the underlined word “in” can be replaced by __________.
A. serious B. bad C. disappearing slowing D. growing fast
59. What should be mentioned in the following paragraph?
A. The public will change their attitude towards old people.
B. People will provide more services to the old in their communities.
C. The government will pass laws to ensure the benefits of the old.
D. Companies will soon produce more goods for old Americans.
B
No poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”, until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end. All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling “interpretation” of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once. Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on film, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it.
I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it, if there isn’t time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry. Poetry is “ a criticism of life”, and “ a heightening(提升) of life”. It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your life”.
I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who don’t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.
60. To have a better understanding of a poem, one should_________.
A. discuss it with others
B. analyze it by oneself
C. copy it down in a notebook
D. practise reading it aloud
61. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry? ____________
A. Extending your life.
B. Saving your life
C. Criticizing life
D. Heightening life
62. According to the writer, one of the purposes of teaching English is to get students ______________.
A. to understand life
B. to enjoy poetry
C. to become teachers
D. to become poets
63. What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply? _________
A. More stress was laid on the understanding of poetry in the past.
B. Poetry is more important than any other subject.
C. One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.
D. Poetry is the foundation of all language and literature courses.
C
The man was shocked. It was as though he had just heard his own sentence of death. For a moment he sat and stared at the spot where the fire had been. Then he grew very calm. Perhaps the old-timer on Sulphur Creek was right. If he had only had a trail-mate he would have been in no danger now. The trail-mate could have built the fire. ____①___Well, it was up to him to build the fire over again, and this second time there must be no failure. Even if he succeeded, he would most likely lose some toes. His feet must be badly frozen by now, and there would be some time before the second fire was ready.
____②____ They were only passing through his mind. He made himself busy all the time. He made a new foundation for a fire, this time in the open, where no treacherous(貌似安全的) tree could blot it out. Next, he gathered dry grasses and tiny twigs from the high-water flotsam. He could not bring his fingers together to pull them out, but he was able to gather them by the handful. In this way he got many rotten twigs and bits of green moss that were undesirable, but it was the best he could do. ___③____He worked methodically, even collecting an armful of the larger branches to be used later when the fire gathered strength. And all the while the dog sat and watched him, a certain yearning wistfulness in its eyes, for it looked upon him as the fire-provider, and the fire was slow in coming.
When all was ready, the man reached in his pocket for a second piece of birch bark. He knew the bark was there, and, though he could not feel it with his fingers, he could hear its crisp rustling as he fumbled for it. Try as he would, he could not catch hold of it. And all the time in his consciousness, was the knowledge that each instant his feet were freezing. ____④_____This thought tended to put him in a panic, but he fought against it and kept calm. He pulled on his mittens with his teeth, and threshed his arms back and forth, beating his hands with all his might against his sides. He did this sitting down, and he stood up to do it; and all the while the dog sat in the snow, its wolf-brush of a tail curled around warmly over its forefeet, its sharp wolf-ears pricked forward intently as it watched the man and the man, as he beat and threshed with his arms and hands, felt a great deal of envy as he regarded the creature that was warm ant secure in its natural covering.
1. Which do you think is the proper place for the following sentence: Such were his thoughts, but he did not sit and think them. ?
A. ①
B. ②
C. ③
D. ④
2. What does the underlined word mean?
A. nature B. the frost C. the man D. the dog
3. Choose the correct order of the following events accordingly?
a. He pulled on his mittens with his teeth, and threshed his arms back and forth, beating his hands with all his might against his sides to prevent himself from freezing.
b. He felt dying when he found the fire out.
c. He reached in his pocket for a second piece of birch bark.
d. He made a new foundation for a fire in the open.
e. He gathered dry grasses and tiny twigs from the high-water flotsam.
A. b-d-e-c-a B. c-d-a-e-b C. d-e-c-a-b D. d-b-c-a-e
4. Which adjective can best describe the man?
A. pitiful B. thoughtful C. calm D. envious
D
How the iron of tomorrow (the first Self Clean Iron) can change your lifestyle today?
General Electric introduces the iron of tomorrow．The iron can clean itself inside where irons get dirty．Because it cleans itself each and every time you empty it．How? With a push of a magic blue button．
The magic blue button

Today you are doing so much more than just running a house and running after the kids．You’re working．You’re going to school．It’s all part of your lifestyle．The iron can change that lifestyle by giving you less trouble before you iron．If we can make it easier for you to be a better wife, a better mother, a better house-maker, we want to．The new Self Cleaning Iron is another one of Home-Makers from General Electric．

Special trees that grow faster, fight pollution, produce better wood, and even sense chemical attacks are being planted by scientists in the US.
When 40 per cent of Hawaii's US$14 million-a-year papaya (木瓜)industry was destroyed by a virus five years ago, work began on creating genetically engineered trees.
Researchers successfully introduced seeds that were designed to resist the virus. Since then, more and more people have been testing genetically engineered trees.
Some researchers put special bacteria into trees to help them grow faster and produce better wood. Others are trying to create trees that can clean polluted soil.
Meanwhile fruit farmers are looking for trees that are strong enough to resist worms, and paper companies want trees that produce more wood and therefore more paper.
The Pentagon (五角大楼) even gave the researchers US$500,000 this year after they developed a pine tree that changes its colours if it senses a chemical attack.
So far, the poplar, eucalyptus (杨树与桉树), apple and coffee trees are among those being engineered. All this can be done today because we have a better understanding of tree genomes.
However, some people fear that the genetically engineered trees will cause dangerous results. They are worried that the new trees will breed with natural species and change the balance of the forest environment.
"It could be destructive," said Jim Diamond, an environmentalist. "Trees are what is left of our natural environment and home to many endangered species."
But researchers insist that science could give nature a fighting chance against both natural and man-made dangers.
They hope to answer the critics by stopping the new trees from breeding, so their effect on the environment can be controlled.
72. What trees are NOT the ones that scientists are planting in the US?
A. Trees that worms can't hurt.
B. Trees that can protect themselves at a chemical attack.
C. Trees that can resist wind better.
D. Trees that can improve soil conditions.
73. What caused the American scientists to work on special trees?
A. They think science could give nature a fighting chance against both natural and man-made dangers.
B. Great numbers of trees have been lost due to attacks by viruses.
C. Researchers successfully introduced seeds designed to resist the virus.
D. Tree genomes are mapped out so scientists know how to improve trees.
74. Which of the following was probably the first kind of trees being engineered?
A. Papaya. B. Pine. C. Apple. D. Poplar.
75. The best title of the passage is .
A. The improvement of environment
B. The side-effects of special trees
C. The development of special trees
D. the program of genetically engineered trees

书面表达
one possible version:
Happiness
Happiness means different things to different people. For example, some students believe that if they have much money or large possessions, they will be happy. They believe that they will be able to do anything they want to if they have much money. Some students think that they should be in good health, and do whatever they like. Many students wish to have much wealth from their parents. In this way, they don’t have to work hard, and they can own everything. I don’t quite agree with the above points. I don’t think money means happiness. We can’t buy many of the things with money, such as health, happiness and knowledge. I value knowledge, which makes me happy, for I can do much for mankind with knowledge. Although different people value happiness differently, my “wealth” of happiness is in my study.

10. A newspaper man said: “I started smoking when I was 19. A friend offered me a cigarette and I really enjoyed it. I was soon getting through about 30 a day. I did try to give up because I knew it wasn’t good for me But it was impossible-I like smoking too much to stop. Then a few years ago I had to do a job. In fact I had to run about half a mile and hack. By the time I got beck to the office I could hardly breathe It really made it clear to me that smoking must be doing harm to me. If I felt like that at 23, what was I going to feel like at 40? I decided to give up smoking there and then. Of course, it was difficult to break the habit at first but I'm glad I stuck to it this time I have had the occasional cigarette when it's been offered to me hut I don't enjoy it any more. In fact, I feel sick if I smoke. It's a success in kicking the habit."
