第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分阶段40分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给一四个选项(ABCD)中选出最佳选项

A

San Francisco-When Jeannie Gant left Hong Kong in 1993 to move to the US, she chose San Francisco because she knew she could find her favorite dishes.

"And also because San Franciscans better know the fact that the Asian community(团体) is not one," she added. "Tell them that you are Korean or Chinese, and they will know the difference."

This year San Francisco will become the only city after the Usbesides Honolulu(檀香山)with more Asians than whites.

"For the Chinese population particularly, this is a historic event," says David Lee, executive(执行)director of the Chinese American Voter Education Committee.

Lee says that Chinese make up about 65 percent of San Francisco's Asian population. But he says it is important to remember that Asians were not always welcomed here. "The founding fathers of San Francisco, who were Irish and Italian, did all they could to prevent the Chinese and Asians in general from growing as a community," Lee says, "Now 100 to 150 years later, the Asian community has developed in ways that were un- imagined just 50 years ago" , when almost all of San Francisco's Chinese lived in a five or six block area known as Chinatown. The city now is the heart of Asian America, he says.

"Travel anywhere in Asia, ask which American cities people have heard of, and San Francisco will be at the top of the list." The immigration trend started in 1965. "Though the 70s and 80s there were many Asians coming, that continues today."

"African American families are being taken the place of from low-income neighborhoods in the south of the city by Asian immigrants who have more capital," he says. Asians have begun to have their influence politically by becoming American citizens and registering(登记)to vote.

36. Suppose there are 1 million Chinese in San Francisco, there are______Asians in all.

A. 65 thousand B. 6. 5 million

C. about 3.5 million D. 1.54 million or so

37. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Jeannie Gant left Hong Kong for San Francisco in order to make more money.

B. Chinese began to immigrate to America in 1965.

C. Asians stopped immigration to the USA at present.

D. Asians in San Francisco have more rights than before.

38. The underlined sentence means that_________.

A. people in Asia have heard of San Francisco

B. Asians like to travel in San Francisco

C. San Francisco is the only place that is known to Asians

D. San Francisco is better known to Asians than any other American cities

B

News has come from America that we shall soon have no more children. The idea that children are different sorts of people from adults, says Mr. Neil Postman has not always been around. In medieval (世纪) times most children did not go to school, but joined in adult life entertainment.

Then printed books were invented; and became common (before that, the only book were copied by hand, and there were very few of them). With printing, all families could have books: this meant that adults could get knowledge children could not, since the children had to read first. So some knowledge became unsuitable for children. They were no longer just small grownups, but had to learn to become grown-ups.

All this, says Mr. Postman is now changing. Printing created childhood, but television is destroying it once again. No one needs to learn to watch television. All knowledge is there for everyone to have. We are going to return to a medieval life-style, and children are once more going to be a part of the adult world.

A. could go to school but they didn’t’ t

B. were quite different from their parents

52. In the writer's opinion, the idea of children________.

A. was existing in medieval times

B. has been around us for a very long time

C. hasn’ t been existing all the time

D. isn't understandable for all the people in the world

53. We can infer from the passage that_________.

A. printing makes it easy to tell children from adults

B. printing makes people's life hard

C. children can' t have become adults since printing was invented

D. people will go back to the Medieval Times

54. After television is widely used, the notion(观念) of children

A. will not be popular B. will disappear in our life

C. will be remembered in people's mind D. will not be fit for modem society

55. This passage indicates ( = suggests) that________.

C. modern world is warmly welcomed by children

D. adults won't be born with children any longer

试题解析:

1. B. 根据句意应是一个表被动意义的选项,因而只有BC项可供选择;B项表示“已提及”,C项表示“将被提及”, 据句意应选B

2. B. 注意词组prefer A to B结构在本句中的应用。

3. B.注意名词shop是可数名词,即使其前有修饰语也要和不定冠词连用。英语中各种饮品可以和不定冠词连用,如a coffee, a beer等,它们还可以有复数形式,如two coffees, three beers 等。

4. A. Yes在此处意为“什么事?”; How come “为什么、怎么发生的?” pardon 指未听清楚,要求对方再说一遍。

6. C. sense意识; feeling感觉、感情; idea主意;opinion观点。

7. B. 人的生日即使用在间接引语中时态也要用一般过去时。

8. D. 句子结构判断题。可以先去掉没有用的部分they had been dreaming of, 因为这是the place的定语从句。在空白后就剩下了需要引导词的句子 they thought was the place ,显然was缺乏主语,引导词要同时有两个作用,选择 what, 可以把what 拆开成n.+that引导定语从句的形式: they reached a place that they thought was the place.

9. B 本题考查副词用法。far在此是副词,表示程度;far behind表示“大大落后于”、“远远落在之后”, 又如:far beyond, far better, far more 等。

13. B. must 用于疑问句中表示“反感、不服气”。

21C 商店不是我们的目的地,而只是在去教堂的路上作停留。

24B 既然大号适合,当然就没必要试穿了。

25D “等到临出发前45分钟再穿衣服,因为天气太热。

26A notice无意中注意到find发现,在本文的背景下显然是有心注意了。

28B break out意为“(战争、火灾等)爆发、发生

29D 幽默的比喻,你们谁试过硬往只能装5的袋子里塞进去20土豆吗?”

41B 辨别正误题。第四段的第一句很清楚的说明了哪些因素影响人们的吸烟习惯,包括:收入、受教育的程度及职业,惟独没有提到和婚姻的关系。

42D 主旨大意题。虽然ABC三个选项所涉及的内容在文章中都出现过,但作者用墨最多的方面仍是不同人群的吸烟习惯。比如吸烟和年龄的关系,和性别的关系,以及和收入、受教育的程度及职业等的关系。

43A 推理判断题。从短文第一节可知开始时有阵雨(showers),所以A项最合适。

44D 辨别正误题。解答此题的关键在于正确理解westerly, northwesterly等方位词的意义。

45A 辨别正误题。从短文第三节可知A项正确。NWnorthwest的缩写。

52C 细节题。由文章的第一段的第二句可知。 “The idea that children are different sorts of people from adults(成年人),says Mr. Neil Postman has not always been around.”

54A 细节题。有了电视使小孩成了成人世界的一分子。

55A 推理题。从文章的最后一段可以推出。关键词:modern machineTV
