    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
    Last year．I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, DC．I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended．Immediately, I pulled out all of my change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her．But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money．I just need help finding the post office．”
    In an instant, I realized what I had done．I acted with prejudice―I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be．I hated what I saw in myself．
    The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant．I left Honduras and arrived in the US at the age of 15．I started my new life with two suitcases,my brother and sister．Through the years, I have been a doorkeeper, cashier and pizza delivery driver among many other humble(卑微的)jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer．
    In my own life, I have experienced prejudice．I remember a time―at the age of 17―when I was a busboy, I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me．
    But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am, where I have been ,and to lose sight of where I want to be going．That blind woman on the streets cured me of my blindness．She reminded me of my belief in humility(谦虚)．By the way, I helped that lady to the post office．I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson．
    56．How did the writer give the blind woman money?
    A．In a modest way            B．In a polite way
    C．In an impatient way．     D．In a painful way
    57According to the text, the writer__________．
    A．still lives a poor life         B．was busy with his work
    C．was born in Honduras        D．was a native of Washington D．C．
    58．According to the text, the author most probably agrees that one should__________．
    A．be nice to the elderly and the disabled
    B．try to experience different kinds of culture
    C．treat others equally with love and respect
    D．think about one’s past as often as possible
    59．What would be the best title of the text?
    A．A priceless lesson    B．An act of prejudice
    C．A sightseeing trip    D．A humble moment

    56—59    CCCA

    第一节：任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
    阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
    注意：表格中的每个空格只填一个单词。请将答案写在答题卡相应题号的横线上。
    Some people believe that greed and selfishness has become the basis of modern society, and we should return to the old traditions of family and community then we will have a better life. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion?
    In this fast-paced world, many values are undergoing major changes. While people traditionally prioritize caring, sharing and generosity in life and work, modern people seem to be more self-absorbed and self-concerned.
    Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh competition of life. They say that it is a jungle out there. To survive, you have to fight with whatever means that come handy. Obviously greedy and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas. In a company, employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position, even at the cost of colleagues. We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct. It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences.
    In spite of common practice, it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness, both of which are not newly invented vocabulary. In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then. But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure compared with their modern counterparts.
    Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them? There is no fixed answer either. Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite. But I personally think that people should not be too selfish. Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship.
    In conclusion, modern people appear to be more self-centered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure. However, we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutually beneficial relationship with others.
    Are Modern People Becoming More Selfish?
    Main comparisons
    		Contexts
      __1__ are changing
    		In the past people put caring, sharing  and generosity in the first ____2____.

    		People in the past appeared to be modest and self-effacing(谦让的).
    People may strive to achieve their own __5___ at the price of their coworkers.
    The author’s  understanding
    ___6____ for the changes in author’s eyes
    		Fierce __7___ and great __8___on modern people may be responsible for the changes.
    The author’s ___9____towards topic

    British science-fiction writer Sir Arthur Charles Clarke has been buried in his adopted country of Sri Lanka.                                         
    Music from the film 2001: A Space Odyssey was played at the funeral and members of the family cried as his coffin was lowered.
    "Here lies Arthur Charles Clarke. He never grew up and did not stop growing, his gravestone in Colombo is to read, in accordance with the author' s wishes.
    Sir Arthur died from heart failure and breathing problems at the age of 90.
    A nationwide one-minute silence was ordered by the Sri Lankan government to coincide with the ceremony.
    Sir Arthur' s brother, Fred Clarke, attended the funeral along with members of the Ekanayake family, with whom the writer had lived in recent years.
    Fred Clarke said his elder brother had always loved the warm climate and the friendly people of Sir Lanka.
    "He said he had managed to escape 40 British winters and had no regrets," Mr. Clarke told AFP news agency.
    Tamara Ekanayake, who grew up at Sir Arthur' s home in Colombo, paid tribute to him, "We feel so proud that you left your mark on us. Your footprint will never fade (褪去).”
    Before the funeral, yellow roses were thrown on to Sir Arthur' s body as a final gesture of respect as it lay on a white bed beneath curved elephant tusks.
    Sir Arthur Charles Clarke (16 December 1917-19 March 2008) was a British science fiction author, inventor, and futurist, most famous for the novel 2001: A Spare Odyssey, which led to the film of the same name.
    Clarke served in the Royal Air Force as a radar instructor and technician from 1941-1946, proposed satellite communication systems in 1945 which won him a nomination ( 提名) in 1994 for a Nobel Prize, and 1999 for literature, and became the chairman of the British Interplanetary Society from 1947-1950 and again in 1953.
    Clarke moved to Sri Lanka in 1956 largely to pursue his interest in scuba diving, and lived there until his death.

    C
    Once when I was nine, I came down with a horrible case of tonsillitis (扁桃腺炎). I remember going to the doctor, feeling miserable and scared, but also knowing that this man would somehow fix me. As he declared his conclusion regarding my illness, he asked my mother “Is your daughter allergic (过敏的) to any medicine? ” My mom hesitated for a moment, while I was looking at her questioningly. Was I allergic to anything? What if I was? What would happen to me?  My mother said no.
    That evening after taking my pill, I began to shake uncontrollably. I complained of a terrible headache and continued shaking as my mother held me. She didn’t seem very concerned, yet I believed I was allergic to the pill. Before I fell asleep that night, I told my mom the medicine had made me sick and I wouldn’t take it anymore. The next morning, my mother had me drink a tall glass of iced tea that tasted funny. Later that afternoon, my mom asked me how I felt. I told her I was doing much better, and that was when she dropped the bomb on me. She told me she had mixed my ice tea that morning with my medicine. Guess what, no allergic reaction. I was never allergic to the pills, but my powerful subconscious (潜意识的) mind, accepted a mere suggestion by the doctor that I might be, and my body acted accordingly.
    Most of us have no idea how powerful our minds are, and how incoming information continually affects our experience. When I took that pill, it had a negative effect on my mind. Researchers are finding more and more evidence that what we believe, or expect to happen medically, has a deep effect on what actually does happen. 
    In some medical trials, the patients never took any medicine, only sugar pills, but were told they had been given expensive medicine, and their conditions improved anyway. They simply believed they would get better. On the other side of the coin, people who believe they are going to die in an operation have a higher death rate than people who don’t.
    What we expect often tends to get realized. The power of your mind to heal your body is absolutely fantastic.  Take care in what information you choose to believe about your health and well-being. Think positively about your outcome in medical situations and allow your power of belief to help you heal.
    49. The girl shook uncontrollably that evening because she _______.
    A. had a horrible case of tonsillitis at the time
    B. was allergic to the medicine she had taken
    C. imagined the medicine was doing its harm
    D. wanted to cheat her mother for more concern
    50. The underlined “ she dropped the bomb on me ” can be understood as “ _______ ”.
    A. she told me the truth that awakened me
    B. she beat me like a plane dropping a bomb
    C. she scolded me with heart-breaking words
    D. she hurt my pride by telling me the truth
    51. We can infer from the passage that _______.
    A. most people believe our minds can function powerfully
    B. it’s harmful to our health to take in negative information
    C. the powerful subconscious mind can cure all diseases
    D. sugar pills with proper mind are as good as costly medicine
    52. The passage is mainly about _______.
    A. a nine-year-old girl’s experience    B. people being allergic to medicine
    C. a fantastic way to treat diseases     D. the effect of the mind on the result
