阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从21—40各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 21 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 22 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 23 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 24 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency（缺陷） 25 in the actual stuff of language itself-words. Taken individually, words have 26 meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 27 however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 28 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 29 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 30 down the speed of reading is vocalization-sounding each word either orally or mentally as 31 reads.
To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 32 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 33 the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 34 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 35 is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 36 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 37 reading skill greatly improved after some training. 38 Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 39 the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can 40 a lot more reading material in a short period of time.
21．A．applying B．doing C．offering D．getting
22．A．quickly B．easily C．roughly D．decidedly

第二部分：阅读理解（共25小题；第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题2分；满分50分）
第一节：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，并在答题卷上将该项涂黑。
A
Before World War II Chicago, Illinois, standing at the southern end of huge Lake Michigan, had the reputation of being one of the toughest, most lawless and corrupt（腐败的）cities in the world. It earned its ill reputation largely from those who sold strong wine during the days of 1919 to 1933, when a law forbade Americans to make or sell strong wine in any form.
Chicagoans have a great pride in their city. They say it is of greater importance to the nation than New York. It is the center of American commerce（商业）and transportation. O’Hare Airport is the busiest airport in the world. 44 million passengers pass through it every year, and there are 2,000 take-offs and landings every day.
Chicago is also a great inland port. It can send goods by oceangoing ships all the way to Europe via the Great Lakes and the Saint Lawrence Seaway. It can send goods by barge（驳船）, through waterway and canals, to the Mississippi and down it to the Gulf of Mexico.

42．According to the passage, Chicago is more important than New York because .
A．Chicagoans love their city more than others
B．Chicago is the center of America
C．Chicago is an inland port and has O’Hare Airport
D．Chicago lies at the southern end of Lake Michigan
43．If we carry goods to Chicago from Mexico, we probably go through .

C．Lake Michigan—the Saint Lawrence Seaway—the Gulf of Mexico
D．Waterway—canals—Mississippi—the Gulf Mexico
B
Styles are constantly changing. Fashions come and go. But few have had the popularity or permanence of the T-shirt. The well-known American garment shares a history of French influence and American daring.
T-shirts made their entrance in the early twentieth century. But they took a bit of courage to wear. It seems the French kept their soldiers cool during World War I by giving them cotton knit undershirts（棉布内衣）. Meanwhile the Americans were hot and scratchy（刺激皮肤的）in their wool underwear. By World War II, the Navy and Army had learned a lesson from the French. The cotton shirt in a T shape became part of the uniform for all soldiers and sailors. After the war. T-shirts came home with the soldiers. By then, all the men were wearing them. But they remained out of sight, as underwear should in polite society.
But Hollywood and rebellious young men know no rules. In 1951, actor Mralon Brando wore a T-shirt in the movie A Streetcar Named Desire. Everyone talked about it, and the T-shirt became a sort of trademark for him. Then in the mid-1950s, the young James Dean performed in Rebel Without a Cause. He wore a T-shirt too. Then Elvis Presley hit the screen in his T-shirt. It was too much for the young to ignore. Every boy in town wanted to look like James Dean and Elvis Presley. White T-shirt and baggy pants became the “cool”, or stylish, thing to wear.
The 1960s and another generation of rebellious youth arrived. T-shirts and blue jeans worn by both males and females were their special fashion style. They dyed T-shirts different colors and put pictures and words on them. T-shirts would never be the same again.
Today, the T-shirt has made its way to every corner of the world. They’re worn by babies, teenagers, and senior citizens. They tell others what we like, where we have been, the things we’ve done, and races we’ve won. They can be old and worn, or new and fancy. They can be made of cotton or of silk. They are worn with skirts, pants, and shorts. And something that would have surprised people is that T-shirts are even worn with Tuxedo（男式晚礼服）.
44．The last paragraph is mainly about .
A．how T-shirts are worn by people of all ages.
B．the popularity of the T-shirt today.
C．the different kinds of T-shirts people wear.
D．what the T-shirts want to tell us.
45．Which statement is true according to the passage?
A．The first person to wear a T-shirt on the movie screen was James Dean.
B．The T-shirt originated with the French military.
C．In the 1950s, colored T-shirts with words printed on them came into style.
D．Seeing the movies, everyone in town wanted to wear the T-shirt.
46．From the passage, it can be concluded that .
A．fashions are often started by the military.
B．most fashions start with large groups of people who wear certain clothing for practical reasons.
C．fashions often become popular when they are worn by someone people admire.
D．new fashions are usually worn by adults before they become popular with young people.
C
About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table. I couldn’t help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked, “So, how have you been?” And the boy-who could not have been more than seven or eight years old-replied. “Frankly, I’ve been feeling a little depressed lately.”
This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed（确认）my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn’t find out we were “depressed”, that is, in low spirits, until we were in high school.
Undoubtedly a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don’t seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why?
Human development depends not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of gaining social knowledge. Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new social positions. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages; traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation（揭示）machine has been equipped in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information to all viewers alike, whether they are children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation（诱惑）, many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more attractive moving pictures.
Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information which children will gain. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.
47．According to the author, feeling depressed is .
A．a sure sign of a mental problem in a child
B．a mental state present in all humans, including children
C．something that cannot be avoided in children’s mental development
D．something hardly to be expected in a young child
48．Traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world .
A．through connection with society B．gradually and under guidance
C．naturally without being taught D．through watching television
49．According to the author, that today’s children seem adultlike results from .
A．the widespread influence of television
B．the poor arrangement of teaching content
C．the fast pace of human scientific development
D．the rising standard of living
50．What does the author think of communication through print for children?
A．It enables children to gain more social information.
B．It develops children’s interest in reading and writing.
C．It helps children to read and write well.
D．It can control what children are to learn.
51．What does the author think of the change in today’s children?
A．He feels their adultlike behavior is so funny.
B．He thinks the change worthy of note.
C．He considers it a rapid development.
D．He is upset about it.
D
As I approached the Gypsy camp for the first time, yellow, wild-looking, stiff-haired dogs barked. Fifteen covered wagons were spread out in a wide half circle, partly hiding the Gypsies from the road. Around the campfires sat women clothed in deep-colored dresses, their big, expressive eyes and strong, white teeth standing out against beautiful dark matte skin. The many gold pieces they wore as earrings, necklackes and bracelets sharpened their color even more. Their shiny blue-black hair was long and the skirts of their dresses were ankle-length. My first impression of them was one of health and vitality（活力）.Groups of small barefoot children ran all over the campsite, a few dressed in rags but most nearly naked, carefree and happy. At the far end of the encampment a number of horses, tied to long chains, were eating grass and of course there were the ever-present half-wild barking dogs. Several men lay in the shade of an oak tree. Thin smoke rose skyward and the pungent smell of burning wood filled the air. Even from a distance the loud, clear voices of these Gypsies resounded with an intensity which I was not used to. Mixing with them, farther away, was the snorting and neighing of horses, the occasional sharp noise of a whip and the high-pitched cry of a baby, contrasting with the whisper of the immediate surrounding of the camp itself.
52．What does the underlined word “pungent” mean according to the context?
A．sweetish B．strong C．sickening D．familiar
53．The author uses many words that are attractive to our senses in the passage. Which of the following does he not emphasize?
A．sight B．smell C．sound D．touch
54．Which of the following best represents the author’s opinion of these Gypsies? He thinks they are .
A．lazy and dirty B．fascinating C．hardworking D．untrustworthy
55．A good title for this passage would be .
A．A Study of Gypsy Life B．Will Gypsies Survive?
C．I Decide to Become a Gypsy D．First Impression of a Gypsy Camp

The US airline industry is facing a new threat to its profits-heavier passengers, a report has found. According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the average US adult put on ten pounds (4.5kg) of weight during the 1990s. Transporting the extra weight cost airlines an extra ＄275 million in fuel costs in 2000, the report says.
Earnings at airlines have already been under pressure due to the decreasing demand and a record increase in the price of crude oil（原油）. In the US, a number of airlines have gone bust while others are struggling to survive in an ever more competitive market place. While it is relatively easy to check the weight of a traveler’s luggage and charge those that burst limits, it is much harder to regulate a person’s waistline. Some firms have toyed with the idea of(jokingly suggested) charging overweight travelers for two seats, but it is not a practice that has taken off industry-wide.
Last year, the American Federal Aviation Administration increased the average passenger weight they use to calculate aircraft loads by ten pounds. Since then, crude oil prices have hit record levels, with many firms responding by raising the fuel charge they add to ticket prices.
The rising level of obesity（过度肥胖）in the US and in Europe has prompted government health campaigns and harsh criticism of a number of food firms. Restaurant chain McDonald’s has taken the main force of the attack, and has in recent months reworked its menu to include healthier options, which has helped lift profits.
As with fast food restaurants, timely adjustment may be the best solution presently for American airlines. The prediction by experts, however, is that humans are set to become bigger.
56．This passage is most probably taken from .
A．a government report B．a yearly economy rview
C．an airline guidebook D．a newspaper
57．The underlined phrase “gone bust” (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to .
A．become stronger B．got banned
C．failed financially D．expanded further
58．The underlined word “those” (paragraph 2) most probably refers to .
A．overweight travelers B．overloaded cases
C．travelers’ waistlines D．extra large seats
59．What measures did many American airlines take in response to the record increase in the price of crude oil last year?
A．They increased the average passenger weight when calculating aircraft loads.
B．They brought up their ticket prices.
C．They charged obese travelers for two seats.
D．They overcharged travelers’ luggage.
60．What does the last sentence of the passage imply?
A．Airline profits in America will be under even greater pressure.
B．The population of obese people will increase rapidly.
C．American airlines will charge more for fuels.
D．Fast food restaurants will be forced to change their menus.
