    第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题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
    Is there something that you’ve always wanted to try but just never had the time? Well, make plans to try it now since you are on summer vacation．Not all vacations call for taking a tour bus to take photos of famous landmarks. Some vacations allow you plenty of opportunities to learn.
    The most difficult aspect of a learning vacation vacation may be choosing one because the possibilities are endless．If you enjoy cooking, various companies can take you to Italy, France, Spain, Mexico or even Peru. Once there, you can learn to prepare the local cuisine（烹饪）. Trips are often planned to fit in with local food festivals or special events.
    The term “learning vacation” often brings language to mind. The best way to learn a language is in an environment where it’s spoken. Study Spanish, French or English. Or attempt a more unusual language like Polish, Estonian or Thai. You’ll be able to learn about the country and absorb the culture at the same time.
    If you are fond of sports, you can polish your skills or learn new ones. Golf and tennis schools welcome players of all levels. If you want a bigger thrill, you can learn to surf, go climbing or race cars. It’s even possible to learn the art and techniques of bull fighting while on vacation!
    You can also discover our inner artist. Many places offer painting classes in different mediums. The scenic locations of the schools offer plenty of subjects that provide inspiration for practice.
    If you prefer capturing the world on film, take a photography vacation. Travel with a small group to photograph beautiful animals or scenery. You can also practise your technique on people or at historical sights.
    Once you decide on a vacation, choose a company carefully. Request names of recent customers you can contact, and then ask them for an evaluation. The more you know before you go, the better prepared you’ll be. Then go out and learn something!
    56．Why is it hard for you to decide on a learning vacation?
    A．Because it is hard for you to make plans.
    B．Because the possibilities are unlimited.
    C．Because there are many good foods from abroad.
    D．Because there’re too many food festivals or events.
    57．The advantages of learning a language in its native country is that______.
    A．the environment is fit for you to use the language
    B．you are able to learn the original foreign language
    C．native speakers offer you a lot of chances to practise
    D．you can learn the language and experience its culture
    58．Which of the following sports suit you if you don’t like thrills?

    If women are exploited year after year,they have only themselves to blame.Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion(过时),they are always made use of by the designers and the big stores.Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion.When you come to think of it,only a woman is able to stand in front of a wardrobe(衣柜) packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.
    Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional(故意的) waste.Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn.Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way waste hours of their time changing the dresses they have.Skirts are lengthened; neck?lines are lowered or raised, and so on.
    No one can say that the fashion industry makes anything really important to society.Fashion designers are seldom concerned with ?important? things like warmth and that woman will put up with any amount of discomfort,as long as they look right.There can hardly be a man who hasn?t at some time in his life smiled at the sight of woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day,or picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.

    You’re rushing to work and a man ahead of you collapses on the sidewalk. Do you stop to help? In a study of by-standers, it was found that some people avert their gaze and keep on  walking rather than stop and get involved.
    “There is a tendency to decide that no action is needed.” says a psychologist. “The first thoughts that pop into your mind often keep you from offering help. In order to take action, you have to work against them.” Here are some common thoughts that might prevent you from helping.
    ● Why should I be the one? I’m probably not the most competent person in this crowd. You might think someone older or with more medical knowledge should offer assistance.
    ● What if he doesn’t really need my help? The fear of embarrassment is powerful; no one wants to risk looking foolish in front of others.
    ● No one else looks concerned- this must not be a problem. We can follow the people around us, but most people tend to hold back their emotions in public.
    “If you spot trouble and find yourself explaining inaction, force yourself to stop and evaluate the situation instead of walking on,” says the psychologist. “Then retry to involve other people; you don’t have to take on the entire responsibility of being helpful. Sometimes it’s just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, ‘It looks like we should do something.’ Or asking someone if an ambulance has been called and, if not, to call for one. Once you take action, most people will follow you.”
    小题1:Which is NOT the common thought that stops you from helping others?
    A．I’m not the very person capable of setting the problenu.
    B．It looks like we should do something.
    C．It must not be a problem as no one else is concerned.
    D．He doesn’t really need my help.
    小题2:According to a study of by-standers, what will some people do when a man ahead falls down on the sidewalk?
    A．They will call for help and then walk away.
    B．They will stop and offer help.
    C．They will turn away their eyes and go on walking.
    D．They will laugh at him.
    小题3:We learn from the last paragraph that if we spot ttouble,           ．
    A．we sbould call the ambulance as soon as we can.
    B．we should take on the whole responsibility and do something alone.
    C．we should stop and evaluate the situation and try to make other people follow.
    D．we should turn to other people and ask them to take on the responsibility
    小题4:In order to offer others your timely help, you need to        ．
    A．ask others for help and call the police
    B．get along well with the passers-by who spot the trouble
    C．go directly to the police station
    D．work against the rirst thoughts that prevent you offering help
    小题5:The main purpose of the text is to tell readers        ．
    A．to give others a handB．to be more competent
    C．not to risk looking foolishD．to stop and evaluate the situation

    Last spring, members of Alaska’s Troop 34, based in Fairbanks, trudged (跋涉) out into the snowy wilderness to take part in their state’s Take a Kid Trapping program. In many parts of the state, beavers （海狸）are pests and need to be controlled.
    The 10－to－12－year－old girls found out where beavers lived, set traps, and skinned the two animals they caught. The girls hope to catch ten more beavers so that the entire troop can make mittens and hats with the fur. They also want to cook beaver meat.
    Troop leaders and members say the Scouts are doing a good deed by helping control the state’s beaver population. But animal－rights activists say trapping is cruel. They want the Girl Scouts to stop in their tracks.
    Beavers aren’t only causing a problem in Alaska. Residents in Sampson County, N.C. , have turned to a local committee to help them battle the growing beaver population there.
    County landowners are frustrated after the county spent more than $ 50,000 in eight years trying to reduce the beaver population through a government program. The joint state and federal program included paying money to trappers for every beaver carcass  they trapped.
    Many local residents say that the program didn’t work because there were too few trappers. That’s why the county set up its own committee to investigate other ways to control the area’s beaver population.
    The county will rely on its own beaver－trapping program. It has hired a trapper to set traps in various areas. The county will pay $10 for every beaver carcass.
    Why do many people say that beavers are a nuisance? For beavers to survive, they need lots of water. Water provides the large rodent （啮齿动物）with a place to hide from meat – eating animals. Beavers also store food underwater for the winter. When there’s not enough water in a particular area, beavers get busy building dams.
    Beaver dams can cause major flooding and damage to the surrounding countryside as the animals cut down trees to use in their construction projects. Beavers build canals to transport heavy objects.
    59．What is Alaska’s Troop 34?
    A．A team of the Boy Scouts.     B．An army.
    C．A team of the Girl Scouts.     D．A sports team.
    60．Why does the troop hope to catch ten more beavers?
    A．To fulfill their task.        B．To sell them for money.
    C．To get enough fur.   D．To exchange them for mittens and hats.
    61．Which of the following statements is true?
    A．Sampson County has to find a new way to control the beaver population there.
    B．The government program in Sampson County has proved to be a success.
    C．The local government has controlled the number of beavers in the County.
    D．More and more trappers now start to set traps in Sampson County.
    62．Local residents hate beavers because they can ___________.
    A．cause damage to dams
    B．block up canals with heavy objects.
    C．do great harm to construction projects.
    D．badly damage the environment and cause floods.

    第一节：阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。                              A
    Endless sea, sand and sunshine on a tiny island--everyone' s idea of heaven. Who wouldn' t want to live in such a place.?
    One person who certainly does is Ben Southall, from the UK. The 34-year-old was one of more　than 34,000 people who applied for the post of "caretaker" on Hamilton Island, Australia, which　the local government called "the best job in the world". The position starts in July and runs for six months. The salary is 150,000 Australian dollars(780,639 yuan).
    Why Southall? Well, first let's take a look at the criteria(标准) for the job: "We're looking for applicants who like to have adventures, have a great love of the outdoors and have good commu-nication skills. "
    On his application video, Southall expressed a love of adventure and included photographs of himself riding an ostrich(鸵鸟 ), running a marathon, diving, and kissing a giraffe. "From the time he was announced in the Top 50, and then the Top 16, Southall did a great job by showing true ex-citement about Queensland," Tourism Minister Peter Lawlor said in a statement.
    "His ideas for how he will make the role his own.., as well as his ability to rise to a challenge impressed the judges and helped him to win his place in the top job," Lawlor said.
    Southall was born in Coventry, UK and used his parents' home as a base for his adventures. He had an old Land Rover that he used for a charity-fund-raising trek(跋涉) across Africa which in-volved joining in five marathons( a 42.16 km race) and climbing five mountains.
    "It was sometimes hard work to make him get his head down and do his work because he always wanted to be outside," his mother said about his early years.
    "He wanted to go surfing in South Africa, so he got a job house-sitting to pay for it. We regu-larly ask him when he is going to get a proper job, but he is confident and has a strong set of friends and is a great social animal. Now he has got the perfect job for his skills," said his father.
    So, you see? No matter what type of person you are, there's always the possibility of getting a dream job. How' s that? Just read the job descriptions carefully and think about how your skills and qualities fit with the ones needed for the job. That' s what Southall did to get his job.
    41. The post of "caretaker" on Hamilton Island is said-to be the best job in the world mainly because of_____
    A. a beautiful landscape                          B. a short working time
    C. great pay for a fun job                          D. very good weather
    42. According to Lawlor, what wasn' t the reason that helped Southall win the job?
    A. His outstanding application video
    B. His passion for the job and ability to face up to challenges
    C. His great love of adventures
    D. His true excitement about the Austrilian lifestyle
    43. Which of the following statements about Southall is true?
    A. He did a poor job in school when he was young.
    B. He worked as a house-sitter to raise charity funds.
    C. He has won five marathons.
    D. He is good at communicating with others.
    44. We can leam from Southall that_____
    A. the world offers opportunities for everyone    
    B. setbacks will only make you stronger
    C. all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy  
    D. where there is a will, there is a way

    C
    Telepathy: Mind-to-mind Contact
    Telepathy is the ability to communicate without the use of the five senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste). It’s an instinct (本能) which can be woken up in times of emergency or need. When we feel that something is happening or about to happen by instinct, we’re using resources within the unconscious mind. When the resources of two persons’ unconscious minds link together into the same frequency, we call it Telepathy.
    We can either send or receive Telepathy. If you know who is calling before you answer the ringing phone, you are probably a good receiver. If you think of a person and he/she calls you, you are most likely to be better at sending.
    You can easily put your abilities to the test. Think of somebody and will him or her to contact you. Be patient. The other person may not be a good receiver, but they should contact you much earlier than would normally be expected. Or whenever the phones rings, but try “feeling” who is contacting you. Don’t guess, but try to feel it with your mind. However, if neither of these work for you, that doesn’t mean that you have no ability of telepathy. As mentioned earlier, telepathy is most likely to turn up in case of emergency.
    Telepathy dreams often contain telepathic messages. Two people may both dream of the other and find that their dreams had a clear connection. These people are probably linking to each other’s unconscious mind.
    Telepathy & Relationships. The more people spend time together, the more likely they are to be able to link up to the other’s mind, specially when separated. There are two reasons for this. One is that they understand the other’s mind through time spent together； the other is that there is usually a strong desire to communicate. A mother will often sense that her child is in danger. This is due to the child’s eagerly wanting his or her mother, knowing that this person who would always want to be there for them, and the mother’s deep desire to protect her child from harm.
    64. Telepathy turns up when we ____.
    A. sense a close friend in danger              B. use the five senses together
    C. recall things from our memory              D. think of a stranger
    65. You’re better at sending than receiving Telepathy if you ____.
    A. can feel your mom is in danger               B. receive a friend’s call as you wish
    C. can tell who knocks at your door             D. dream of a friend dreaming of you
    66. Which is not the way to help people gain Telepathy?
    A. Help them have a strong desire to communicate.   B. Separate them all the time.
    C. Help them link up their unconscious minds.       D. Let them spend much time together.

    Recently I paid a visit to Harvard University, where there are top class scientists and professors and the best academic system in the world.
    I was pretty shocked when I first stepped onto the campus. Well, it's not even really a campus. It's more like a district in a small town.
    Harvard's main buildings are from the 18th century. They look very old and simple. You might even say they're a little shabby. They don't fit the modern idea of university at all. The buildings are surrounded by grass and trees, so I felt as if I had walked into a medieval castle. But when I looked across the street, busy shops and in-fashion students made me feel like I was in the 21st century again. It creates a strong contrast and brings a special atmosphere to the school.
    Our tour guide Gary took us around and told us: "You see this grass field in the center of the school? Here is where they host their graduation ceremony. They just set up tents and benches and have a very simple ceremony. Unbelievable! Who would think the most talented students just graduate on the lawn?
    I saw some students put a blanket on the grass and lie down to read a book. When I listened to the soft sound of pages turning, along with chirping of the birds, I felt very calm. There was no competitive feeling at all.
    Harvard has the world's first computer in its science center and there are hundreds of high-end computers too. Its religion and the literature departments are also among the best. It is the perfect mix of tradition and new technology. It makes Harvard a very attractive place to study in.
    I hope one day I'll attend my dream school—Harvard.
    45．The article is mainly about        .
