    Ⅲ. 阅读（共两节，满分40分）
    第一节：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
    阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从41—55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    (A)
    We're all connected. You can send an e-mail message to a friend, and your friend can pass it on to one of his or her friends, and that friend can do the same, continuing the chain. Eventually, your message could reach just about anyone in the world, and it might take only five to seven e-mails for the message to get there.
    Scientists recently tested that idea in a study involving 24,000 people. Participants had to try to get a message forwarded to one of 18 randomly chosen people. Each participant started by sending one e-mail to someone they knew. Recipients could then forward the e-mail once to someone they knew, and so on.
    Targets, who were randomly assigned by researchers from Columbia University in New York, lived in 13 countries. They included an Australian police officer, a Norwegian veterinarian, and a college professor.
    Out of 24,000 chains, only 384 reached their goal. The rest petered out, usually because one of the recipients was either too busy to forward the message or thought it was junk mail.
    The links that reached their goal made it in an average of 4.05 e-mails. Based on the lengths of the failed chains, the researchers estimated that two strangers could generally make contact in five to seven e-mails.
    The most successful chains relied on casual acquaintances rather than close friends. That's because your close friends know each other whereas your acquaintances tend to know people you don't know. The phenomenon, known as the strength of weak ties, explains why people tend to get jobs through people they know casually but aren't that close to.
    So, start networking and instant messaging now. As they say in show business: It's all about who you know.
    41. If you want to get into touch with a stranger in the world, how many e-mails might it take for the message to reach him/her?
    A. 5 to 7
    		B. 18
    		C. 13
    		D. 384
    42. Which of the following is Not true about the test?
    A. 24,000 people took part in the study and sent e-mails to people they knew.
    B. The 18 targets were chosen by chance.
    C. About 98.4% of the mails didn’t reach their goal because some people were too busy or they mistook the message for junk mail.
    D. The targets come from 13 countries, such as Australia, Norway and New York.
    43. What does the word “estimate” mean in the passage?
    A. make sure
    		B. suppose
    		C. think over
    		D. imagine
    44. Why do people tend to get jobs more easily through casual acquaintances than close friends?
    A. Because close friends don’t talk with each other so much.
    B. Because casual acquaintances can help you know more people and make more friends.
    C. Because close friends don’t spend so much time gathering together.
    D. Because casual acquaintances are kinder and more willing to help others.
    45. In which part of a newspaper will readers read this passage?
    A. Culture
    		B. Entertainment
    		C. Information and Technology
    		D. Health

    In William Shakespeare’s play, Julius Caesar, there is major difference between two of the characters, Brutus and Mark Antony, Brutus was very honorable and Antony was very persuasive. When Brutus spoke at Caesar’s funeral, he appealed to the people’s logic and Antony spoke to the emotions of the people. Antony was very smart and used his brain frequently during the play and Brutus was very naive(天真的，率直的) about many of things.
    Brutus was very honorable in the way that he always told people the truth. Antony was persuasive in the way that he used people to get whatever he wanted. For example, Antony used Lepidus to seek revenge on all of the conspirators (同谋者，阴谋者) to take the blame for their deaths. Brutus’ speech at Caesar’s funeral was very short and to the point and spoke to the logic of the people in the crowd. For example, Brutus spoke in a detached way about Caesar’s death while Antony spoke to the emotions of the crowd by crying and talking about all the good things that Caesar did for Rome. Antony’s intelligence was very apparent throughout the play and Brutus appeared to be naive about many things. Antony as smart in the way that he controlled people to his own advantage. Brutus appeared to be naive throughout the whole play because he believed everyone was as honorable as he. Brutus did not question what he was told, assuming it was always true.
    In conclusion, in William Shakespeare’s play, Julius Caesar, there is a major difference between the two characters, Brutus and Mark Antony. The strongest contrast between the two characters appears to be their ability and inability to be both honorable and persuasive.

    High-quality customer service is preached(宣扬) by many ,but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done. Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a store, but instead will alert their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers-and anyone who will listen. Store managers are often the last to hear complaints, and often find out only when their regular customers decide frequent their competitors, according to a study jointly conducted by Verde group and Wharton school.
    “Storytelling hurts the boss and entertains consumers,” said Paula Courtney, President of the Verde group.” the store loses the customer, but the shopper must also find a replacement.” On average, every unhappy customer will complain to at least four other, and will no longer visit the specific store for every dissatisfied customer, a store will lose up to three more due to negative reviews. The resulting “snowball effect” can be bad to bosses.
    According to the research, shoppers who bought clothing met the most problems. ranked second and third were grocery and electronics customers. The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered (塞满了的) shelves, overloaded racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude salespeople. During peak shopping hours, some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants. Some hired flag wavers to direct customers to empty parking spaces. This guidance eliminated the need for customers to circle the parking lot endlessly, and avoided fight between those eyeing the same parking space.
    Bosses can relieve the headaches by redesigning store layouts, pre-stocking sales items, hiring speedy and experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions.
    Most importantly, salespeople should be diplomatic and polite with angry customers. “Retailers who’re responsive and friendly are more likely to smooth over issues than those who aren’t so friendly.” said Professor Stephen Hoch. “Maybe something as simple as a greeter at the store entrance would help.” Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filling complaints to the boss, instead of complaining to the rest of the world. Bosses are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong.
    1. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?
    A. Most customers won’t bother to complain even if they have had unhappy experiences.
    B. Customers would rather relate their unhappy experiences to people around them.
    C. Few customers believe the service will be improved.
    D. Customers have no easy access to store managers.
    2. What does Paula Courtney imply by saying “ … the shopper must also find a replacement” (Line 2, Para. 4)?
    A. New customers are sure to replace old ones.
    B. It is not likely the shopper can find the same products in other stores.
    C. Most stores provide the same
    D. Not complaining to the manager causes the shopper some trouble too.
    3. Shop owners often hire moonlighting police as parking attendants so that shoppers_____
    A. can stay longer walking in the store  B. won’t have trouble parking their cars
    C. won’t have any worries about safety  D. can find their cars easily after shopping
    4. What contributes most to smoothing over issues with customers?
    A .Manners of the salespeople   B. Hiring of efficient employees
    C. Huge supply of goods for sale   D. Design of the store layout.
    5. To achieve better shopping experiences, customers are advised to _________.
    A exert pressure on stores to improve their service
    B. settle their problem with stores in a diplomatic（外交）way
    C. voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directly
    D. shop around and make comparisons between stores

    Vancouver ended its time hosting the 2010 Olympic games on a light-hearted note, with a closing ceremony that featured floating moose, dancing Mounties and gigantic cut-out hockey players wearing the gold medals Team Canada had won hours before.
    The upbeat ending was in stark contrast to the grim beginning of these games, which were marred by protests, the death of a Georgian luger, and then by unseasonably warm weather that left organizers postponing events and trucking in snow on Cypress Mountain.

    During the closing ceremony, Vancouver passed the baton to Sochi, Russia, which will host the 2014 winter games.

    A couple of years ago I took the family on a winter vacation to New York City to experience the holiday atmospheres. The longest lines that week weren’t in the Empire State Building, at the Statue of Liberty Ferry or any of the Big Apple’s other landmarks (地标) , but at Fifth Avenue and 58th Street, where people crowded into FAO Schwarz.
    It was not until I got inside that it became clear how only one toy store could provide everything else that Manhattan offers between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Far more than a shopping experience, the hour we spent wandering along the aisles(通道) at FAO Schwarz was more like visiting a museum of everything that children care for very much. And for me — and all of the other bright-eyed grownups — it was a trip down my memory lane to the toys we knew as kinds.
    America’s most unique toy stores are found from coast to coast, in big cities and also in small towns. Let’s have a look at some others.
    The Dinosaur Farm in South Pasadena, Calif.: Former rock musician Dave Plenn opened the shop in 1994, a year after “Jurassic Park” brought the creatures back into the spotlight again. But he says his wife ---who was then working for the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles— rather than the big movie proved the inspiration for the dinosaur store.
    Mild Zone: A more traditional specialty store, which sells model cars like Matchbox, Hot Wheels and Johnny Lightning. “It’s such an addicting (上瘾的) hobby,” says Burke, who admits that he originally created the store as a means to feed his own toy car collection. “Once you buy your first, you can never stop.” The store has around 30,000 cars. Mile Zone’s customers are from kinds with a wish for speedy toys to grown-ups who view the model cars as time travel back to their youth.
    59. The author wrote the first paragraph mainly to show _________.
    A. the poor traffic condition in New York      B. the nice holiday atmosphere in New York
    C. the popularity of toy stores in New York   D. the charming landmarks in New York
    60. Walking into FAO Schwarz gave the author a chance to ___________.
    A. recall his life of childhood  B. visit a most special museum
    C. study the history of Manhattan   D. learn the way of producing toys
    61. Dave Plenn was inspired to open the Dinosaur Farm by ________.
    A. his wife       B. “Jurassic Park”  C. his research on nature       D .rock music
    62. We can infer from the passage that ______.
    A. dinosaur toy stores are more popular than traditional ones
    B. some unique toys have been displayed in local museums
    C. some popular toy stores have become new landmarks
    D. customers of toy stores are more than children

    In the eighteenth—century one of the first modern economists, Adam Smith, thought that the “whole annual produce of the land and labour of every country” provided revenue to “three different orders of people: those who live by rent, those who live by wages, and those who live by profit”. Each successive stage of the industrial revolution, however, made the social structure more complicated.?
    Many intermediate groups grew up during the nineteenth century between the upper middle class and the working class. There were small—scale industrialists as well as large ones, small shopkeepers and tradesmen, officials and salaried employees, skilled and unskilled workers, and professional men such as doctors and teachers. Farmers and peasants continued in all countries as independent groups.?
    During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries the possession of wealth inevitably affected a person’s social position. Intelligent industrialists with initiative made fortunes by their wits which lifted them into an economic group far higher than that of their working—class parents. But they lacked social training of the upper class, who despised them as the “new rich.”?
    They often sent their sons and daughters to special school to acquire social training. Here their children, mixed with the children of the upper classes, were accepted by them, and very often found marriage partners from among them. In the same way, a thrifty, hardworking labourer, though not clever himself, might save for his son enough to pay for an extended secondary school education in the hope that he would move in a “white collar” occupation, carrying with it a higher salary and a move up in the social scale.?
    In the twentieth century the increased taxation of higher incomes, the growth of the social services, and the wider development of educational opportunity have considerably altered the social outlook. The upper classes no longer are the sole, or even the main possessors of wealth, power and education, though inherited social position still carries considerable prestige.
    60．If you compare the first and second paragraph, what groups of people did Adam Smith leave out in his classification?
    A．Officials and employees.   B．Peasants and farmers.
    C．Doctors and teachers.       D．Tradesmen and landlords.
    61．Who were the ‘new rich’ during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries?
    A．They were still the upper class people.
    B．They were owners of large factories.
    C．They were intelligent industrialists.
    D．They were skilled workers who made their fortune.
    62．According to the passage, what did those people do who intended to make their children move up in the social ladder?
    A．They saved a lot of money for their children to receive higher education.
    B．They tried to find marriage partners from the children of the upper class.
    C．They made greater fortunes by their wits.
    D．They worked even harder to acquire social training.
    63．In the twentieth century class differences have been partly smoothed out by ____.
    A．increased income and decreased taxation
    B．taxation, social services and educational opportunities
    C．education, the increase of income and industrial development
    D．the decrease of the upper class population
    C  61—65 DBC

    B
    It was evening when my parents and I ventured across Nemeiben Lake, in Northern Saskatchewan. This vast lake had a unique reputation as being the best fishing and tourist resort.
    With the boat undocked and the gear and luggage stored beneath the security of the seats, we set off into the setting sun at 8:30.
    Unlike my parents , I had never been on a fishing boat before and was captivated(迷住) by the speed and grace in which it traveled through the waves. The lake was deserted as the sky began to darken and looked more threatening by the minute.
    Suddenly the boat hit something with such a force that we all fell over in our seats. The whole boat shook for a moment, before water started to trickle slowly over stern. My father went to the back and after many attempts to start the engine, he began to look very worried. The water was now rushing in at a much faster rate, tipping the boat at an awkward angle.
    We tried our best to hold on to something. The worst was yet to come. With our life jackets secured and fastened, we waited as the boat sank deeper into the water. We were soon immersed in the chilly depths. The biting cold was more terrifying than anyone could imagine.
    My parents, who were dressed in floater jackets, clung desperately to each other, trying to keep their heads above water. I, on the other hand, wasn’t so fortunate. A strong gust of wind blew briskly across the lake, bringing with it, torrential rain and threatening thunderstorms. The strong waves carried me on into the night. The waves continued to pound violently, forcing me underwater.
    The following morning a fisherman found us. By that time, our body temperatures were twenty-four degrees, which meant we were nearly dead. Later investigation showed that we had been in the water for fifteen hours.
    60. What is the main idea of the passage?
    A. An exciting experience my parents and I had
    B. A disappointing experience my parents and I had
    C. An adventurous experience my parents and I had
    D. A strong experience my parents and I had
    61. Unlike the other lakes in Northern Saskatchewan, the Nemeiben Lake____________.
    A. was the most dangerous and threatening lake
    B. was most famous for fishing and tourism
    C. was the largest and deepest in this area
    D. had a good reputation for its wildlife
    62. What is the reason which caused the accident?
    A. Because of the thunderstorms
    B. Because the boat sank.
    C. Because the boat hit something with force.
    D. Because we had no life jackets
