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
When he thought of the past, my grandfather would sometimes show us photographs of himself at school. They were brown and faded, and it was hard to believe that the blurred figure of the little boy in the short trousers and socks could ever have been Grandfather. Besides, he wore a cap---and the boys in the photographs wore caps pulled so far forward that half of their faces were obscured. When Grandfather asked us to pick him out from the group, we would surely point to the wrong boy.
On one such occasion my younger sister, aged six, burst into tears when Grandfather proudly guided her finger to the right boy. “How could the boy be you?” she cried. “He should have a beard.” We were, of course, all convinced that grandfathers should have beards, preferably white and bushy, like our own grandfather’s.
“I was a good scholar,” Grandfather would say, wagging his beard over the photographs. “I should have been top of the class if I hadn’t had to get up at six every morning to milk the cows and chop the wood, and again when I came home from school.”
“But Saturdays? What did you do on Saturdays?”
“Saturdays, if it was fine, I’d be out all day in the fields with the men,” replied Grandfather. “And if it was wet, I’d be helping my mother with odd jobs round the house. There wasn’t much time for studying.”
We all tried hard to imagine what it would have been like to have been Grandfather getting up at crack of dawn and never, obviously, having a moment for himself. It seemed we had learnt something from what Grandfather had said about his childhood.
56. In the first paragraph of this passage, what the author really tells us is that ______ .

A. she did not get a chance to pick out Grandfather in the photographs
B. she was told which was the right boy before she herself could pick him out
C. other children did not agree with her that Grandfather should have had a beard
D. she found Grandfather in the photographs did not have a beard
58. When Grandfather said, “I should have been top of the class…”, he means _______.
A. if he had had more time for studying, he would have been the best in his class
B. he should have spent more time studying rather than playing ball games
C. his school days should not have been so hard and miserable
D. he could have never been the best student even if he had studied still harder
59. In the last paragraph the author said, “We all tried hard to imagine…” because _________ .
A. the figures of the boys in the photographs were small and blurred
B. the children had never experienced life that of Grandfather
C. the photographs Grandfather showed them were brown and faded
D. Grandfather failed to tell them about his childhood in detail
B

There
are still thousands of mysteries about Otzi, yet the most famous and

Faced with a tough job market, fresh graduates are dreaming of running their own businesses instead. But a recent survey has showed that such ambitions lack the required support and remain just that-dreams.
The survey showed 59.78 percent of 1276 respondents(受访者) considered the possibility of setting up a company or at least a small store. “ But they just stop at the ‘thinking’stage,” it started.
Respondents put the top reasons for not going it alone down to a shortage of investment and a lack of business opportunity. They also listed lack of business experience and social networks, the need for advanced study and objections from family members as factors that stood in their way.
More than 90 percent of the interviewees said they would rather take up a job after graduating and then consider starting their own business two or three years down the road.
Guo Bing, a Senior student in Shanghai International Studies University majoring in English, decided he wanted to be his own boss last year. But he is looking for a job first. “If I fail to find a satisfying job, I would like to establish a company in exhibition services,” Guo said.
The Shanghai native has some relatives working in a local printing plant. With their help, Guo hopes to produce exhibition brochures(手册) at a relatively low price. He is also confident that his English language skills can help him do well in the industry.
“Social networking is an important factor leading to business success,” Guo said. He also said that the shortage of graduate jobs is the main reason driving more university students to set up a business right after their graduation. “Once you win the support of your family, you have won half the battle.” Guo added.
68. As fresh graduates, which of the following does NOT belong to the main factors that stand in their way to realize their dreams of being bosses?
A. The lack of business opportunity and investment
B. The shortage business experience
C. Less skilled English language
D. Their family members’ objections
69. Which of the following statements is NOT true about Guo Bing?
A. English is his major in the university
B. He started his own business with the help of his relatives last year
C. He is trying to find a job which can satisfy himself
D. He thinks family’s support is very important
70. Who is this article mostly intended for?
A. The parents whose children will graduate from university soon
B. Those who will graduate from university
C. Those who want to be bosses
D. The officials who work in the government
71. It can be inferred that _________ .
A. the majority of respondents have set up their businesses
B. Guo Bing has some supportive relatives
C. the job market is always full of challenges
D. graduates must have no ambitions
E
Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance(pocket money). The purpose is to let children learn from experiences at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly.
The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.
In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to pay for with the money. At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.
The object is to show young people that a budget demands a choice between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics. Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life.
Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.
Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.
Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice. You have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowances can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance.
A savings account is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest.
Compounding works by paying interest on interest. So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will earn two cents in the first year. The second year, the money will earn two percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on. That may not seem like a lot. But over time it adds up.
72. According to the passage, how can a child learn to have a budget?
A. Through their own experiences B. Through parents’ instruction
C. By spending allowances D. By receiving allowances
73. The author of the passage holds the opinion that _______.
A. what children learn by handling allowances may be beneficial in the future
B. children can learn to set up their own business with their allowances
C. keeping allowances in the bank is the best choice for children
D. it is not a good idea to pay children for housework at home
74. The underlined words “compound interest” in the passage probably means _________.
A. increasing curiosity to learn how to make money
B. stronger power to hold one’s attention to saving money
C. money paid by the bank on your original money and the gain from it
D. the sum of money that you earn from keeping your money in the bank
75. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Be Generous to Pay Your Children
B. Be Wise to Avoid Financial Mistakes
C. Saving Allowances Does Good to Children
D. Allowances Help Children Learn about Money

Dear Tim,
I hope everything is fine with you.
Your letter came to me this morning. It’s really hard for a foreign student to understand this rule that we should stay at school until 8:30 pm every day.
As far as I know, my fellow students react to it differently. Defenders think there is a good study atmosphere at school, and besides, they’re able to communicate with their classmates and teachers whenever they come across any problem. Critics, however, find it more comfortable to study at home. Even worse, in their opinion, they tend to get disturbed at school.
Personally, I agree that the rule has ensured the efficiency of my study. Anyway, I sometimes can’t concentrate while studying at home.
Take good care of yourself and write often.
Yours,
Li Hua
