第二部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)

第一节(共15小题;每小题2分，满分30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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

I’ve ridden a lot of buses in my time. There was the one in India that was so crowded, I had to climb onto the top just to breathe. Neither will I forget the bus in South Africa that was almost taken up by monkeys. No matter how entertaining they were at the time, none can compare to my first ride on what I now call the Leisure Village Local.

When I first moved into Leisure Village, I didn't even know bus transportation was provided. Then I had an operation on my left foot and I couldn't drive. As I didn't want to keep making trouble for friends to shop for me, I decided to try out the Leisure Village Local.

The next morning, undaunted, I stood with the support of my crutches(拐杖) and waited. Suddenly, the bus arrived. As soon as I boarded the bus, I discovered I was all by myself. Then the bus approached another stop, and four women climbed aboard. They sat next to me and introduced themselves.

A few minutes later, we arrived at the Wal-Mart in Middle Island. As soon as we entered, one of my new friends showed me how to operate the motorized shopping cart(购物车). Another walked alongside the entire time, waiting to help if something was out of reach. One hour later, another insisted on carrying my bags onto the bus. And the fourth woman carried my bags to my front door when we got back. I thanked them all for their help, and told them I would see them soon.

The next day morning, I found a brown paper bag at the front door. Inside was a giant bowl of chicken soup, and a note.

“Get well soon.” It was signed, “Your guardian angels.”

I rode the Leisure Village Local two more times later, but didn’t see any of my guardian angels. Maybe they’re helping someone else, I thought. Or, maybe they flew south for the winter.

21.Why did the author decide to try out the Leisure Village Local?

A. He had an operation to carry out.

B. He has no other transportation choices.

C. He was not permitted to drive by local law.

D. He was too considerate to trouble his friends again.

22. The four women passengers _________.

A. helped the author onto the bus

B. were friendly even to strangers

C. each cooked the author a bowl of soup

D. finally became the author’s friends

23. The underlined sentence shows the writer’s sense of ________.

A. guilt         B. panic      C. humor        D. security

24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. An Unexpected Gift     B. An Unforgettable Trip Abroad

C. A Pleasant Shopping Experience   D. A Chance Meeting with Angels

B

Last week the American Medical Association voted, for the first time, to declare obesity(肥胖) a disease. How should the rest of us respond? When we meet obese people, should we cast them a knowing glance of concern and ask how they are doing? Should we send flowers and “get well soon” cards to obese family members and friends?

Should the U.S. declare war on obesity, as we once did on cancer?

If obesity truly is a disease, then over 78 million adults and 12 million children in America just got classified as sick. Yet many sensible people know that declaring obesity a disease is a mistake. Simply put, obesity is not a disease. To be sure, it is a risk factor for some diseases.

Yet everyone who is obese does not get sick, and many normal-weight people do not stay healthy. I have known slim people who took good care of themselves throughout their lives yet fell ill and died young. Others who exhibited no particular interest in their health and did not watch their weight lived to an old age. In most cases, we simply cannot tell from a person’s weight what lies ahead for them in life. Consider Winston Churchill. Though average in height, Churchill weighed up to 250 pounds. He smoked cigars and drank relatively heavily. He did not work out. Yet he became perhaps the most important statesmen of the 20th century and one of the greatest politicians in history. He lived to age 90.

Is obesity bad for people? For some, especially patients who are extremely overweight, the answer is almost certainly yes. Would many overweight people benefit from exercising more and eating less? Again, the answer is likely yes. But this does not make obesity a disease. Many people are not harmed by carrying extra pounds, some may actually benefit from it. For these reasons, we should be careful before labeling obese people diseased.

25.What can we learn from the third paragraph ?

A. Over 90 million Americans are more or less overweight.

B. People with good sense would agree with the declaration.

C. More Americans suffer from obesity than any other diseases.

D. Obesity is the leading cause of most deadly diseases.

26.  By mentioning Winston Churchill, the author wants to __________.

A. tell us slim people are more likely to die young

B. show how successful an overweight person can be

C. prove overweight people are not necessarily unhealthy

D. encourage people not to care much about their way of living

27. What is the author’s attitude towards the American Medical Association’s    declaration on obesity?

A. Favorable   B. Uncaring     C. Disapproving    D. Friendly

28. Where can we probably find the text?

A. A government report    B. A popular science magazine

C. A website about losing weight  D. A book about famous people

C

At the age of 45 I decided to learn the English language. Not that I didn't know the language, but to improve my command over the language, I joined English academic classes close to my house. In one class, the instructor gave us a sheet of a hundred words and told us to write the opposite of each word as homework. At home I sat with that page but though I could manage the easy words quickly, for certain words I had to take the help of the dictionary.

Feeling relaxed and like an achiever, my new found enthusiasm forced me to explore some more words. Exploring the dictionary, for every word I found the opposite word (except all forms of nouns). The entire night went on exploring words, but the night was not enough to complete the dictionary. I had enough time to hand in my homework, so the next day, after work once again I sat in through the night and started exploring opposite words from the dictionary.

The exercise was easy, but suddenly something struck my mind. Instead of finding the words which have opposite words, I should look for words that do NOT have any opposite word. After going through sleepless nights that week, I could not find a single word which doesn’t have an opposite word.

This amazed me and forced me to conclude that without the opposite word the original word doesn’t have its real meaning or value. In other words, every word is incomplete without its opposite. The conclusion forced me to think differently. Although many questions remained unanswered in my mind, the one thing I concluded was that these words are created by humans and every human possesses two qualities within himself, Positive and Negative. Similarly he created words with opposites. This proves that whatever we welcome in our life, we will also be welcoming the opposite of it. And at the end of the day we will complain about the negative forces surrounding us, making us weak, dull, pessimistic(悲观) and so on…Isn’t this strange?

29. The author finished his first homework __________.

A. at the first attempt             B. with great ease

C. with the help of a dictionary     D. with the aid of the instructor

30. What led the author to his further exploration of words ?

A. The pressure of homework.     B. The deep interest in word formation.

C. A sense of achievement.        D. The encouragement of instructors.

31. According to the author, __________.

A. not every word has its opposite word

B. every word has more than one meaning

C. it is the opposite that makes a word complete

D. every word has positive and negative meanings

32. Which of the following idioms may the author agree more with?

A. Every coin has two sides.       B. Easier said than done.

C. All roads lead to Rome.     D. Kill two birds with one stone

D

Last weekend my sister went to the supermarket to buy some groceries. Three hours ago, with full bags of goods in both hands, she headed for nearby bus stop, tired and hungry. She was waiting for the bus while it began to rain. After what seemed ages, came a bus, crowded of passengers. When it was her turn to getting on the bus, someone said, “ Sorry, no more rooms.” Quite disappointed, my sister had to take a taxi. Half way home, however, the taxi broke out.
