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、D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

How to say hello in Japanese depends on when you say it. This is very much like different greetings used in English at different times of the day or night. In Japanese culture, it also depends on whether you are on the phone or meeting somebody or whether you are close to the person you are greeting. We don’t get formal with our close friends.We seldom greet them with “Good morning” or “Good evening”. A “Hi” is enough.

Although the most popular and most well­known translation for “Hello” is still “Konniqiwa”， it is not exactly how to say hello in Japanese. Perhaps it is not the most suitable word for it. Actually, the correct greeting in English for “Konniqiwa” is “Good day”or “Good noon”， and I am sure you wouldn’t like greeting people with a “Good day” at any time, and neither do Japanese like saying “Konniqiwa” when they want to say “Hello”.

So what to do?Let’s do it the way the Japanese do. Use “Ohaiyo Gonzaimasu” for “Good morning”， “Konniqiwa” when it’s noon and “Konbanwa” to greet somebody in the afternoon. Things differ when you are on the phone. Just say “Moshi, Moshi”， which is actually similar to saying “Hello” over the phone, because one hardly ever uses “Good morning” or “Good afternoon” or “Good evening” right after picking up the phone. It is invariably the sweet old “Hello”.

Next time, I’ll tell something about my life in Japan.

36.What is the best title for this passage?

A.How to say hello

B.How to greet close friends in Japanese

C.How to greet people in Japanese

D.Some differences between English and Japanese

答案　C

解析　主旨大意题。通读全文，可知文章主要是围绕中心句“How to say hello in Japanese depends on when you say it.”展开的，故选C项作为文章的标题。

37.Japanese people greet each other by saying “________”in the afternoon.

A.Moshi, Moshi       B.Konniqiwa

C.Ohaiyo Gonzaimasu  D.Konbanwa

答案　D

解析　细节理解题。根据第三段的“... and ‘Konbanwa’ to greet somebody in the afternoon.”可知下午问候别人应该用Konbanwa。

38.In the writer’s opinion, ________.

A.Japanese culture is similar to American culture

B.Japanese people don’t like using “Konniqiwa” as a greeting for the whole day

C.people don’t need to be polite to their colse friends

D.Japanese people are very friendly to each other

答案　B

解析　理解推断题。根据第二段的“...I am sure you wouldn’t like greeting people with a ‘Good day’ at any time, and neither do Japanese like saying ‘Konniqiwa’ when they want to say ‘Hello’.”可知作者认为在日本，人们不会喜欢一天到晚用Konniqiwa 来跟别人打招呼。

39.What does the underlined word “invariably” in the last paragraph mean?

A.Probably.   B.Always.

C.Sometimes.  D.Likely.

答案　B

解析　词义猜测题。根据第三段的“because one hardly ever uses ‘Good morning’or ‘Good afternoon’ or ‘Good evening’ right after picking up the phone.”可知人们拿起电话的时候，通常不会分早、中、晚问候，只是说Moshi, Moshi, 由此可推断作者是想表达接电话时、问候别人时总是用甜美而古老的“Hello”。

B

An Australian­based scientist announced yesterday he had made a step forward in forensic (用于法庭的) DNA testing so that an individual can be identified by a single cell.

Ian Findlay，from the Australian Genome Research Facility at the University of Queensland，said current DNA testing required 200 to 500 cells to gain a similar level of accuracy.“What we have done has brought that down to one cell，” Dr.Findlay said  after releasing details of his DNA testing technique at a Sydney conference.

The technology could allow investigators to pick up DNA identifies from plastic cards and even build up a complete history of the people who have handled a paper document.

“You’d have to wear a space suit to stop yourself from leaving traces.You can identify cells on the paper，so you can work out where it came from and who touched it，” he said.

The technique could also be used to trace the thrower of a punch from cells left behind on the skin of their victim.Even the wearing of latex gloves would not help：small cells can pass through the gloves，and the constant flow of genetic material given off by the human body would leave further evidence.

“We gained a skin cell from a document dating back 30 years and managed to gain a DNA fingerprint.DNA evidence can remain fresh for decades，perhaps even centuries，” Dr.Findlay said.“The potential for this technology to solve unsolved crimes is great，” he added.

But Dr.Findlay，named scientist of the year in 1998 by the European Society of Human Genetics，said the new testing needed to be scientifically validated，which would take up to five years.

He said，“There are serious consequences taking on technologies too early.The public has to be sure that they have the utmost confidence in the security and court systems.”

40.The main advantage of the new technology is that_____________________________

__________________________________________.

A.a single cell can identify an individual

B.it has brought down the cost of DNA testing

C.a higher level of accuracy can be acquired with a single cell

D.it needs less than 200 cells to gain a certain level of accuracy

答案　A

解析　细节理解题。由第二段的最后一句可知A项正确。

41.The underlined word “validated” in the seventh paragraph means________.

A  confirmed  B.imagined

C.supposed   D.criticized

答案　A

解析　词义猜测题。倒数第二段的大意为：这项新的测试要科学地验证、确认(confirm)至少还需要5年的时间。

42.According to Ian Findlay，the new technology can_________________________

______________________________________________.

A.help to keep DNA evidence fresh for decades and even centuries

B.make the process of DNA testing much more simplified

C.help to pick up DNA identities more easily

D.be widely used in five years at most

答案　C

解析　细节推断题。倒数第三段说明新技术使DNA采集变得更容易了。

43.The last paragraph suggests that________.

A.the immediate adopting of the technology may cause mistakes

B.the public have acknowledged the new testing technology

C.it is safe to put the new technology into use now

D.Dr.Findlay is quite sure of his new technology

答案　A

解析　段落主旨题。由最后一段可知过早地采纳这种技术可能会造成错误，公众必须确信他们在安全和司法体系上拥有最可靠的证据。

C

Edmund Jackson, who is 83 years old now, was injured as a gunner in World War Ⅱ on August 7, 1944. The 20­year­old jumped out of the plane and spent 32 days hiding from the enemies in Yugoslavia. The history in Jackson’s head and the stories of other veterans (退伍军人) are being collected and will be put in a new series of schoolbooks by the American Veterans Institute. The American Veterans Institute hopes to give the books to schools to get students from three­year­old to seventh grade more interested in history by offering stories with places, dates and facts.

“I wouldn’t want to go through it again, but I wouldn’t have missed it for anything，” Jackson said. “It’s important for them to know there are people willing to die for their country.”

The American Veterans Institute, which is based in Tipp City, aims to help people appreciate military(军事的) service more. Tara Dixon Engel, co­founder，said  the American Veterans Institute started the book project in 2006 because many students didn’t seem to know who veterans are and what they did. The group has spent as much as $25,000 on the program and has finished writing three books so far. For some books, the group plans to use written stories from veterans of the Revolutionary War(独立战争)and oral histories from the World War Ⅱ Victory Museum in Auburn, Ind. Once the books come out, the institute and the Victory Museum will give them to schools for free.

44.Why does the writer mention Edmund Jackson in the first paragraph?

A.To tell us his stories during World War Ⅱ.

B.To tell us for whom the books are written.

C.To lead to the topic of the passage.

D.To advise us not to forget veterans.

答案　C

解析　文章结构题。通读文章可知，本文主要是讲美国老兵协会把老兵的故事汇编成书，并免费发给学生，文章提到Edmund Jackson在二战中的事只是为了引出下文。

45.The purpose of the American Veterans Institute’s project is to ________.

A.help people know soldiers better

B.help people appreciate military service more

C.offer children more interesting books

D.collect stories of veterans

答案　B

解析　推理判断题。由文章第三段的第一句话“The American Veterans Institute, which is based in Tipp City, aims to help people appreciate military service more.”可知B项正确。

46.All of the following statements are ture EXCEPT that ________.

A.Edmund Jackson was a gunner in World War Ⅱ

B.the stories have places, dates and facts

C.three books have been finished writing

D.all the stories are about veterans of World War Ⅱ

答案　D

解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段的“the group plans to use written stories from veterans of the Revolutionary War and oral histories from the World War Ⅱ Victory Museum in Auburn，”可知也会选用美国独立战争中的一些老兵的故事。

47.What do we learn about the American Veterans Institute?

A.It was founded by Tara Dixon Engel alone.

B.It just publishes(出版) books for school students.

C.It has spent more than thirty thousand dollars on the program.

D.It will give all the books to schools for free.

D

Every year, smokers across the nation join the American Cancer Society’s Great American SmokeOut by smoking less or quitting for the day. The event aims to encourage people to stop using tobacco and to help people take effective steps to quit for good. The idea came from Arthur P. Mullaney of Randolph, Massachusetts. He asked people to give up cigarettes for a day and give the money they would have spent on cigarettes to a high school scholarship fund in 1971. Not long afterward, on November 18, 1976, the California Division of the American Cancer Society successfully prompted nearly one million smokers to quit for the day. That California event marked the first SmokeOut, and the Society took it nationwide in 1977.

Research shows that smokers give up the habit most successfully when they have some means of support, such as nicotine replacement(代替) products or professional support, as well as the encouragement of friends and family members. However, only about fourteen percent of the present smokers say they have tried any of the advised methods during their last time they tried to quit smoking.

In order to help more smokers receive the help they need, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has created a free stop program—the Colorado QuitLine, which can be accessed from the comfort of the smoker’s living room. The Colorado QuitLine is a free telephone support service, providing smokers with their own personalized quit plan, personal quit coach, and offering up to 8 weeks of the nicotine patch(贴片)for free to members.

Join the Great American SmokeOut and stop smoking!

48.What’s the best title for this passage?

A.How to stop smoking?

B.The harm smoking does

C.Join the Great American SmokeOut!

D.Help smokers around you quit smoking!

答案　C

解析　主旨大意题。通读文章以及根据文章最后一句“Join the Great American SmokeOut and stop smoking!”可知文章的写作目的是为了鼓励吸烟的人加入the Great American SmokeOut，以此达到成功戒烟的目的，故选C项作文章的标题最好。

49.What does the underlined word “prompted”in the first paragraph most probably mean?

A.Caused.    B.Forced.       C.Advised .   D.Begged.

答案　A

解析　词义猜测题。根据第一段的“The event aims to encourage people to stop using tobacco...”可知在1976年11月18日，美国癌症协会加州分部成功地促使近一百万的人在那天没有吸烟。

50.The author may disagree that ________.

A.smoking is harmful to people’s health

B.more people should try the advised methods

C.the encouragement of friends is important

D.it’s very easy for people to quit smoking

答案　D

解析　理解判断题。通读文章可知，戒烟并不是一件容易的事，因此才会有Colorado QuitLine的应用，来帮助想戒烟的人戒除烟瘾。

第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Does success make you happy，or does happiness make you successful?__51__Their quest for answers has recently produced a 50­page article in Psychological Bulletin，which reviewed 225 scientific studies on this topic.

__52__ The short answer is that while success probably does make people happy (it’s better than failure，at any rate)，it is also true that having a happy temperament—defined in the article as “long­term propensity (倾向) to frequently experience positive emotions”—enables you to do the things that turn into success.Your “positive effect”，which is the outward sign of your happiness，will make it more likely that you’ll land the job，find friends，form a happy marriage or other close long­term relationships，make money，be loved in your community，and be healthy.The evidence concerning health is only suggestive.__53__We do know from other research that having friends，love，respect，social support，and agreeable employment as well as optimism and a positive attitude do tend in the long run to make people healthier.

Plowing through their accumulated evidence，the researchers asked whether happy people are better off，whether they cope better，whether they reap larger social rewards，and whether they have stronger immune systems.The answers are always yes，even though the evidence for their immune systems is，again，only suggestive.__54__They seek out other people;they solve problems creatively，and as they are more flexible，they are better able to adapt to adversity (逆境).

__55__

A.Happy people tend to say they are healthy，but that doesn’t mean they really are.

B.This might be a pleasant topic to debate over tea some afternoon，but for psychologists，poll­takers，economists，and other observers of behavior，it’s crucial.

C.Perhaps the most that can be said is in the study’s conclusion：happiness is a great asset (资产)，but no guarantee of a perfect life.

D.Do you know why the researchers attach great importance to this problem?

E.So what did the researchers find out?

F.In conclusion，happiness leads to success and vice versa.

G.But happy people seem to do better socially.

答案　51.B　52.E　53.A　54.G　55.C

Dear Li Lei：

I’m very glad to receive your letter today.How are you getting along with your study?

In your letter，you asked me whether you should buy a cellphone or not.In my opinion，it is unnecessary for a student.Why?First，sending or receiving short messages takes up too much time.Therefore，the time that you should spend on studies becomes shorter.Second，it is forbidden to use cellphones at school because sometimes you have to answer the call in class.As a result，your behavior may disturb others.Third，you may be disturbed by some unhealthy short messages.Finally，as a student，you have to ask your parents for the phone expenses，and they will have to spend more in supporting you than before.

In short，I suggest that you think it twice.Best wishes.

Your friend，

Wang Fei
