第三部分:阅读理解(共;每小题 2 分,满分 40 分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
(A)
We often hear people say, “I have a good memory for things like that” or “I can
remember names”. But do you know memory is the single most important thing and it
has played a very important part?
For early men, there were dangerous all around them—bad weather, wild animals.
The key to keep on living lay in man’s ability to remember these dangers and the
ways he had dealt with them in the past. In order for memories to be stored, the
human brain became more complex. And as man learned how to deal with them, he
became civilized (文明). Surprisingly, scientists today understand little about memory
and how it works. They have not yet found a way to open up the brain and observe its
function without destroying it. Perhaps there are two types of memory: short-term and
long-term. Short-term refers to those facts that stay with us for a few seconds to a few
hours. For instance, when you stay at a hotel, you remember the room number and
forget as soon as you leave. Long-term memory, on the other hand, means you
remember things for a long period of time. If you spend your honeymoon in a
particular hotel, it’s likely that you’ll remember your stay quite clearly.
Scientists also believe that a short-term memory can become a long-term memory
through consolidation (巩固). A lot of chemical and physical changes take place in the
part of the brain. Although the human brain weighs three pounds, it contains 30 billion
nerve cells (神经细胞) acting like a computer. When those changes strengthen the
links (联系) in certain nerve cells, a thought becomes part of the long-term memory.
56. According to the author, without the development of man’s memory there would
be .
A. no modern world B. no recorded history
C. no animals D. no dangers
57. Scientists’ knowledge about the function of brain is .
A. interesting B. not enough
C. great D. encouraging
58. Short-term memory can change into long-term memory on condition
that .
A. memory is good
B. it acts like a computer
C. people do more exercise
D. the links in nerve cells are strengthened by certain changes
59. So far the great discovery scientists have made about the function of brain
is .
A. the weight of brain B. two types of memory
C. 30 billion nerve cells D. chemical and physical changes
(B)
A “blogger” is a person who writes on an Internet computer Web site called a
“blog”. The word “blog” is a short way of saying Web log, or personal Web site.
Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they like.
There are millions of blogs on the Internet today. They provide news, information
and ideas in many people who read them. They contain links to other Web sites. And
they provide a place for people to write about their ideas and react to the ideas of
others.
A research company called Perscus has studied more than 300 Web logs. It says
that blogs are most popular with teenage girls. They use them to let their friends know
what is happening in their lives. The study also says that more than 100,000 bloggers
stopped taking part in the activity after a year.
However, some people develop serious blogs to present political and other ideas.
For example, the Republican and Democratic parties in the southern state of Kentucky
recently started their own blogs. And American companies are beginning to use blogs
to advertise their products.
At the same time, some long-standing blogs have ended last week, blogging
leader Dave Winer closed his free blog service weblogs. com. He says the site became
too costly to continue. He started the blog four years ago. And thousands of people
had written on it. They are now upset because they did not know that the site was
closing.
One blog that is still going strong is called Rebecca’s Pocket. Rebecca Blood
created the Website in 1999. She wrote about the history of blogs on the site. That
article led to a book called “The Weblog Handbook”. It has been translated into four
languages so far.
Ms. Blood says Rebecca’s Pocket gets about 30,000 visitors a month. She writes
about anything and everything—politics, culture and movies. She recently provided
medical advice. And she wrote about how to prevent people from stealing money
from on-line bank accounts.
60. The text is mainly written to .
A. introduce an Internet computer Web site called “blog”
B. introduce a short way of saying Web log
C. tell reader’s about blogs
D. tell readers how to write blogs
61. From the text we can learn that blogs cover almost everything except .
A. different ideas B. medical advice
C. advertisements D. account passwords
62. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?
A. Politicians don’t use blogs at all
B. A lot of bloggers no longer write or read blogs
C. Those who like to use blogs are mostly teenage girls.
D. Dave Winer closed his “weblogs.com” because of money shortage.
63. The reason why Rebecca’s Pocket is still going strong is that .
A. it was created by a woman.
B. it is about the history of blogs.
C. it provides useful information and advice
D. it has editions in at least four different languages

Jersey City, New Jersey, Nov.10
An underworld leader Gelato and three bodyguards were gunned down on
Thursday by unknown attackers after a short gun battle.
Gelato and two of the bodyguards died immediately, the police said, while the
third bodyguard remains in serious condition at Margaret Haig Hospital.
The only eyewitness told the police the three or four gunmen were dressed in
overalls and hard hats like building workers. One pulled a light machine gun out of a
bag and sprayed the four with bullets, the witness said. The other gunmen fired
handguns.
Three of the men fell immediately, but one of the bodyguards managed to pull his
handgun and returned the fire before being shot himself, the witness said.
The gunmen then jumped into a black car and drove off. Police said the car was
later found in Stegmen Street.
Police sources said the 48-year-old Gelato was the leader of a new crime syndicate
(犯罪团伙), challenging the city gangsters (暴徒) for control of the city. The city
gangsters decided to get rid of him. Killers were brought in from outside the state to
do the job.
Police are now waiting to question the surviving bodyguard when he came back to
life.

served a total of 17 years in prison for different crimes, from illegal possession of
guns to armed robbery.

D. They never killed any men themselves.

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn
by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices
a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language
those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his
language like other people’s. In the same way, children learn to do all the other things
without being taught to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle….They compare their
own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed
changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and
correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would
never notice a mistake or correct it. Let him work out with the help of other children.
If it is a matter of right answer in mathematics or science, give him the answer book.
Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time in such routine
(日常的) work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find
the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must
some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they do
not know.
68. According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by_____.
A. listening to skilled people’s advice.
B. asking older people many questions
C. making mistakes and having them corrected
D. doing what other people do
69. According to the writer, teachers in school should _____ .
A. allow children to learn from each other
B. point out children’s mistakes whenever found
C. correct children’s mistakes as soon as possible
D. give children more book knowledge
70. The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are____.
A. different from learning other skills B. the same as learning skills
C. more important than other skills D. not really important skills
71. The title of this passage could probably be_____ .
A. Let Us Teachers Stop Work B. Let Us Make Children Learn
C. Let Children Correct Their Exercises D. Let Children Learn by Themselves
(E)
Today, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a busy motorway. But still there
is a danger that grows every year. Airliners get larger and larger. Some airplanes can
carry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one
large airliner struck into another in mid-air, 600 lives could be lost.
From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is
watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn,
when to climb, and when to come down. The air traffic controllers around a busy
airport like London-Heathrow may deal with 2,500 planes a day. Not all of them
actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the
orders of the controllers there. Even a small mistake on their part could cause a
terrible accident.
Recently such a disaster almost happened. Two large jets were flying towards the
airport. One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from
Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were
too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made
a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the
second plane, the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in
front of the second plane. They avoided each other by the smallest part of a second.
The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. This is an
example of the danger that grows every year.
72. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Traveling by air is as safe as by car.
B. Traveling by air is not as safe as by car.
C. Traveling by car is as dangerous as by air.
D. Traveling by car is more dangerous than by air.
73. The air traffic controllers of an airport .
A. control all the planes flying near the airport
B. give orders to planes leaving the airport
C. only deal with the planes that want to land there
D. are ordered to handle 2500 planes a day in England
74. The danger of air crashes grows every year because .
A. airliners are getting larger and air traffic is becoming heavier
B. a pilot does not always hear a controller’s order
C. a controller is likely to make more and more mistakes
D. airports can hardly serve the growing number of airplanes
75. The example in the passage is to show that .
A. air traffic controllers are often careless
B. air traffic controllers should pay much attention to avoiding accidents
C. it is difficult for airplanes to avoid terrible accidents
D. two planes should not fly too close to each other
