三、阅读理解

1、

In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining at home. They often invite friends over for a meal, a party, or just for coffee and conversation.

Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their home:

“Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night?” “Hey, we’re having a party on Friday. Can you come?”

To reply to an invitation, either say thank you and accept, or say you’re sorry and give an excuse:

“Thanks, I’d love to. What time would you like me to come?” or “Oh, sorry. I’ve tickets for a movie.”

Sometimes, however, people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations. For example: “Please come over for a drink sometime.” “Why not get together for a party sometime?” “Why don’t you come over and see us sometime soon”

They are really just polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they don’t mention a specific time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like these, people just say “”Sure, that would be great!” or “OK. Yes, thanks.” So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?

Once a circle lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole ,so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was incomplete , it could only roll very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers and the sunshine along the way. It talked with worms. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on looking for the missing piece. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly. It put the missing piece into itself . It could be whole , with nothing missing . It was so happy and began to roll. Now that it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to worms. It realized how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad that it stopped ,left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled away slowly. Sometimes we are perfect when we lose something. A man who has everything is a poor man in some ways. He will never know someone is loving him or someone

is giving him something he has always wanted or never had.

Daniel Brown was just five years old when he climbed into the family car and let it roll away down the road. He was only three when be flooded the kitchen.

His mother, Angela Brown, is in despair. She is very busy looking after her new baby, a little gift called Laura, as well as Daniel. She told us, \"Daniel is so full of curiosity.\" At that moment, we hear a huge crash and then silence. We go upstairs and find Daniel crawling out of a wardrobe 衣橱、 he has pulled over onto the floor, with a book in his hand. \"It's for you, Mum,\" he says and looks up at his mum and smiles. Seven-year-old Daniel has a lovely face. He has golden hair, big brown eyes, and a friendly smile. I have to admit that Daniel doesn't look like a naughty boy.

Angela told me all about it. \"Once I found him as he was about to put Jasper in the

10

washing machine.\" Jasper, she explained, is the Browns' dog. \"When I asked him why, he said that he thought Jasper was dirty! It's amazing how one little boy can cause so much trouble. Another time he cut off all the hair of the little girl next door. She was going to attend her sister's wedding and the neighbours haven't spoken to us since.\"

Angela told me about Daniel's most expensive crime. \"I was about to do the washing up when the baby started crying. Daniel decided to help and filled the kitchen sink with water. When I came in the water was already flooding the kitchen and was about to flood the hall. The carpet was ruined and had to be replaced. I hope things will get better as he gets older.\"

Amazingly, Daniel is quite well behaved in school. This may be because he is rarely bored. Meanwhile he continues to be the naughtiest little boy in England. Will his baby sister Laura grow up to be the naughtiest little girl?

1. What did Daniel do while his mother was talking to the author?

A. He drove away the family car. B. He cut off the hair of the girl next door. C. He flooded the kitchen. D. He fell to the floor with the wardrobe. 答:D

3. It can be inferred from the passage that( )

4、

Transportation and communication networks bring people together. Yet sometimes people themselves create barriers 障碍、 to transportation and communication. In some countries, laws stop people from moving freely from place to place. Over the centuries, many groups of people have been denied the freedom to travel because of their race, religion, or nationality. In the Middle Ages, for example, Jews were often forbidden to move about freely within certain cities. South Africa's government used to require black Africans to carry passes when they travel within the country. Some governments require all citizens to carry identification papers and to report to government officials whenever they move. Countries set up customs posts at their borders. Foreign travellers must go through

11

a customs inspection before they are allowed to travel in the country. Usually travellers have to carry special papers such as passports and visas 签证、. Some countries even limit the number of visitors to their country each year. Others allow tourists to visit only certain areas of the country, or they may require that travellers be with an official guide at all times during their stay.

Many of those barriers to travel also act as barriers to communication.

When two governments disagree with each other on important matters, they usually do not want their citizens to exchange news or ideas freely. Countries often try to keep military or industrial information secret.

Today, people have the ability to travel, to communicate, and to transport goods more quickly and easily than ever before. Natural barriers that were difficult or dangerous to cross a hundred years ago can now be crossed easily. The barriers that people themselves make are not so easy to overcome. But in spite of all the different kinds of barriers, people continue to enjoy travel and the exchange of goods and ideas. 1. The examples in paragraph 2 are used to tell the readers that ( ) A. people have been allowed to travel freely within the country B. people have not been permitted to travel freely for various reasons C. travellers have to carry special papers such as passports and visas D. customs posts are necessary at the borders of the countries 答:B

2. Some governments limit the freedom of communication because( ) A. they intend to keep their national secrets unknown to others B. they think such freedom will lead to wars

C. they often disagree with each other on important matters D. they want to show their authority over communication 答:A

3. We may learn from the passage that( )

A. people do not care about the removal of barriers between countries B. people can not remove the obstacles made by themselves

C. man-made barriers are sometimes harder to overcome than natural ones D. barriers should be taken for granted as they always exist 答:C

4. Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage? A. Barriers Made by People B. Functions of Communication C. Restrictions on Transportation D. Progress of Human Society

答:A

5、 NOBLE SMUGGLER

This Thursday, Irena Sendler will be honoured for her work as a smuggler 偷运者、. During World War II, the Polish social worker smuggled nearly 2,500 Jewish children out of the Warsaw ghetto 聚居区、. She gave them new identities, found them safe places with good-hearted Christians, and kept the children's real names buried in jars in her neighbours' gardens. The play, Life in a Jar, based on her story, is being performed.、 At 93, Sendler lives in a Warsaw nursing home and is too weak to travel to Washington D.C., to receive the 2003 Jan Karski Award for Valor and Compassion from the American Center of Polish Culture. One of the children she saved will accept the award for her. You risked your life to save the children.

I was taught by my father that when someone is drowning, you don't ask if they can swim, you just jump in and help. During the war, everyone was drowning, but mostly the Jewish children.

How did you persuade parents to give up their children?

I had to answer honestly that I didn't even know if we would get past the guards. What was the most frightening moment?

When I saw a priest 牧师、 in charge of an orphanage for Jewish children in the ghetto walk with them out to be killed. The children were in then best Sunday suits. The priest was killed with them.

How did you get the children to behave as you smuggled them out?

I told the older children to act as if they were sick and sometimes gave the younger ones a sleeping pill. They were told to remember their new names. I also told the children to tell guards they had only been visiting a servant in the ghetto and were going back to their real homes outside.

Did you tell your own two children what you did?

I never told them. Only when my daughter went to Israel did she learn all about me. I thought it was only normal to do so. And it was a very painful subject. It was always on my mind that I couldn't do more.

-- Samantha Levine 8. We can learn from the passage that Irena Sendler ( ) A. will go to Washington to accept the award with her daughter B. was caught a few times while she was rescuing the Jewish children C. told those parents that their children's lives would be guaranteed

13

D. saved thousands of Jewish children at the risk of her own life 答:D

9. The expression \"everyone was drowning\" can best be replaced by \"( ) A. everyone was involved in the war B. all the people were drowned C. people were facing danger and death D. Jewish children were being killed 答:C

10. Which of the following could NOT be expected when Sendler was smuggling the Jewish children?

A. Some children were told to pretend to be sick in front of the guards.

B. Some children pretended to be returning home after visiting servants in the ghetto. C. The children were asked to remember and use new names instead of real ones. D. The children pretended to be brothers and sisters from one big family. 答:D

11. Sendler didn't tell her own children what she did in the war because A. she thought it was the most frightening experience B. the topic was too painful and heartbreaking to mention C. it was already recorded and made known to the public D. she planned to bury the secret in her heart until her death 答:B

6、

In toy stores, what is old is new again.

Some of the latest toys to hit store shelves include several names that were popular in the 1980's. Among them: He-man, My Little Pony, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Transformers. Their appearance is surprising in an industry where all but classic toys like Barbie dolls tend to stay in the market for only a few years before they leave kid culture for good.

The return of toys introduced a generation ago, say experts, is largely a generational effect. These toys were among the first to be marketed primarily through TV cartoons. The result: The toys carried with them a much stronger brand identity than toys from previous ages. When those who played with these toys during the 1980s began having children of their own, businessmen realized they could take advantage of parents' emotional ties by bringing the toys back.

\"We're starting to see a lot of properties and products coming back now for the kids of Generation X,\" says Greg Livingston, vice president of Wonder group, a children's product marketing firm. But other industry observers say this return-of-toy trend is more rooted

14

in basic economics. When the economy isn't strong, they say, toy-makers become more careful. One of the safest marketing techniques is bringing back toys that are proven successes. \"If you're in the business of making and selling toys, you're going to go the safest route, which is using proven brands,\" says Stephanie Oppenheimer, co-founder of the Oppenheimer Toy Co., an independent consumer group that rates toys; Other companies use product ideas that have sold well in other countries, such as Japan. Still, Ms. Oppenheimer also believes that American consumers simply are not

in the mood for new, high-tech toys anymore. \"People are interested less in what we wish we had and more in what we already have,\" says Oppenheimer. \"As a country, we're looking for things that remind us of simpler times.\"

12. The expression in the first paragraph \"what's old is new again\" means that ( ) A. both old and new toys are sold B. old and new toys are of the same price C. old toys are in fashion again D. old toys have taken on new forms 答:D

13. Which of the following is NOT listed as the cause for the return of the toys popular about two decades ago?

A. Generational effect. B. Economic factors. C. Marketing techniques. D. Fierce competition. 答:C

14. The expression \"for good\" in the second paragraph can be replaced by( ). A. for ever B. for the future C. for the best D. for all 答:A

15. The main purpose of the passage is( ) 、

A. to introduce the development of kid culture in the past century B. to analyse the reappearance of toys popular in the 1980s C. to promote the marketing techniques of toy manufacturers

D. to show the impact of high-tech toys on the kids of Generation X 答:B

Many years ago , when I was working as a volunteer at a hospital , I got to know a little girl named Lisa. The poor little girl had a very serious disease and was dying. The doctor had done his best but no medicine really worked. The

People usually talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Scientists think that there are also two kinds of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors.

The warm colors are red, orange, and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of lights, people usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, who like to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue. Red may be exciting, but one scientist says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He says that a warm color, such as red or orange, is good color for a living room or a restaurant. People who are resting or eating do not want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly.

A letter to the university president about the canteen service on campus Mr. President:

I am a junior in our university majoring in Mechanical Engineering. First of all, I am relly sorry to trouble you, but it is canteen service that indeed bothers me. So I wrote this letter delivering some personal comments and

21

suggestions.

The quality of some cuisines needs to be improved. Everyday, with great expectation, entering into the canteen, we require wondful food. But is turns out to be a dream that never takes wings. Sometimes too salty, sometimes too spicy. When winter comes, the food goes cold if we arrive a little late. Apart from the quality, the price is supposed to be adjusted, too. Some food which is fragrant and delicious has been priced dramatically high that most of us can't afford. We are just wondering it is for dinner or for appreciation. From bad to worse, the lights are so somber that we had to grope the door knob in the dark for several times. Such environment makes our appetites depressed. To sum up, the service in canteen is expected to be boosted and the qualifications of public servants need to be trained as well. Customers are always right. We deserve terrific quality. So, your excellency, I , on behalf of my classmates, will be appreciated from the bottom of our hearts if you will take actions immediately.

Yours respectfully Li Ming

Dear Professor Huang,

I write for information regarding the forthcoming International Education Conference to be held at your prestigious university.

I am a first-year student from Nanjing University majoring in Education, and have a particular interest in the teaching of work place skills and employer’s perceptions of new graduates.

I plan to attend the conference and would like information about the contributory speakers, the content of their talks, and their research interests. However, although I have been living in Nanjing in the past four years, I am unfamiliar with Nanjing. Therefore, if you could please also send the details of how to get to your university it would make my arrangements much easier.

In addition, if you could let me have details of the accommodation that is available I would be more than grateful.

I look forward to receiving the information and meeting you in person. Sincerely yours,

Frank

Dear

Huang, June 19, 2004

You have asked me for my advice concerning whether you should find a decent job or pursue graduate study after graduation, and I will try to make some useful suggestions.

It is really a dilemma for all of us when faced with such

alternatives. True, attending graduate schools has become a trend in recent years. Enrollment in graduate schools exploded in recent years. People have a growing respect for graduate study. I would recommend that you further your study. I am fully convinced that you have every reason to make this decision in such an era where knowledge is expanding at an incredible speed and the demands for us to enrich both our knowledge and survival skills in this highly competitive society are becoming increasingly urgent. There is no doubt that you could sharpen your competitive edge by making this sensible choice. Keep on learning and you will never regret. With best wishes!

Sincerely yours

(七)A Letter of Thanks-一封感谢信 Oct. 10,2003 Dear Mary,

Tom and I both want to thank you for the kindness you showed Jim when he visited your campus last week. He has returned full of enthusiasm for Hill College. Having been raised in the shadow of a large university, he fimnd the close contact between students and faculty at Hill particularly exciting.

You were right on target to arrange an interview with Dr. Johnson of the Chemistry Department and to have a student take Jim to a soccer game. Seeing the well-equipped laboratories and the spirit of the athletes confirmed his belief that he has chosen the right school.

23

If you will be in our area in the coming months, do give us a call. We would enjoy having you come for dinner and an evening of catching up. Give Ellen our regards. Cordially,

Li Lin and Wang Xin
