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。

A

My father was Chief engineer of a merchant ship, which was sunk in World War II. The book Night of the U-boats told the story.

Memories

In September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him safe.

Then I remembered my mother lying face down, sobbing. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo(鱼雷).

I can remember the arrival of the telegram, Which in those days always brought bad news. My grandmother opened it. It read, “Safe, Love Ted.”

My most vivid memory was being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage.

He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of th e war. For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.

Ten years later  I read Night of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.

Torpedo

One torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be abandoned.

By the time he got on deck he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had been stuck . When he tried to cut it free, it swung against the ship, injuring his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump—still with the photograph in his pocket.

Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.

In my room is the book and the photograph. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion, a sinking ship, a jump into a vast ocean and a wait for rescue? Lest(以免)we forget, I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war.

21. We can infer that the mother and children went to Swansea ________.

A. to see the father off            B. to meet a friend

C. to take a family photo          D. to enjoy the sailing of the ship

22. What did the author learn about the father from the telegram?

A. He had arrived in Glasgow.          B. His knee was broken.

C. His ship had been sunk.             D. He was still alive.

23. What can we know about the author’s father after his ship was attacked?

A. He lost his arm                     B. He repaired the engines.

C. He was the last to leave the ship.      D. He managed to take a lifeboat

24. What is the passage mainly about?

A. A group of forgotten heroes           B. A ship engineer’s wartime experience.

C. A book describing a terrifying battle.   D. A merchant’s memories of a sea rescue.

B

When we think about giving help to developing countries, we often think about giving money so that these countries can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medici ne, or find clean water supplies.These seem to be most important basic needs of the people we are trying to help.However, it's far from enough.We have to come up with some better ideas to help them.

I was very surprised, then ,when I read about a plan to make cheap laptop computers for children in developing countries.A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer, which can run without electricity.He decided to invent this computer after he visited a school in Cambodia.

The laptop which Mr. Negroponte has designed is a little different from the normal laptop computers you can buy in shops.One difference is that it will be covered in rubber so that it is very strong and won't be damaged easi ly.As electricity supply can be a problem in developing countries, the computer also has a special handle so that children can wind the computer up to give it extra power when needed.

These special laptop computers will cost less than $100 and Mr. Negroponte wants to build as many as 15 million machines in the first year of production.The idea is that these computers will help the children's education as they will be able to access the Internet. These computers might not help the people in developing countries immediately, but by improving children's education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.

Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again.In the UK, and, probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year. The waste created by throwing away these old phones is very bad for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to recycle them.In this way we shall be able to achieve two important goals at the same time.We will reduce the waste we produce and help others.In other words, we will be able to " kill two birds with one stone ", and that is always a good thing.

25.It's an excellent idea to recycle old mobile phones because _______.

A.it reduces waste and can help others

B.it prevents waste and can earn lots of money

C.it can send the waste produced by developed countries to other countries

D.it is good for the environment and very educative for phone users

26.The author gives the example of Mr. Negroponte's cheap computers _______.

A.to show what high tech can bring us.

B.to illustrate the kindness of people in the developed countries

C.to give an example of how to help developing countries

D.to show how to find business opportunities in developing countries

27.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Mr. Negroponte's cheap computers?

A.His computers don’t need any power to function well.

B.His computers will help children in developing countries to have better education.

C.His computers are covered with rubber so that they are very cheap.

D.His computers will help people in developing countries to find all the solutions.

28.Where does this passage probably come from?

A.A novel      B.An advertisement      C.A newspaper  D.A lecture

C

A recent trend in Californian restaurants shows new eating habits among those out to have an interesting dining experience. Appetizers (开胃品) seem to be the name of the games as diners turn away from the more traditional three-course meal in favor of smaller snacks sampled in various types of restaurants, bars and cafes. In this way, in the course of an evening out, you might go to a restaurant for a tasty dish to eat at one end of town, to a bar with some live music at the other end, then for a coffee, and finally back to the restaurant for a further appetizer.

Reasons for this trend are the fact that so many different types of res taurants have been set up recently, each with their own particular type of food and special atmosphere, combined with the increased sophistication in the type of snacks being offered. Gone are the cheese sticks of the old days, when appetizers were not really taken seriously. Some favorite snacks of the moment are slices of hot pizza, creamy fish-based dishes and crispy cakes and so on.

Prices for appetizers are not equal to a full meal; however, their new popularity has meant that they are by no means as cheap as they used to be. Certainly, for that special occasion, a meal in a nice restaurant, complete with the piano performance, is hard to beat. However, if we see that this trend for  "butterfly eating"-- moving around several different places in one evening -- continues, then all the traditional style restaurants may well have to provide their own appetizer bars as well!

29. How are Californian people's eating habits changing?

A. People are dining out less.

B. Californian restaurants are becoming less popular.

C. A full restaurant meal is losing popularity.

D. Most people eat less than they used to.

30. If you go out for an evening of appetizers, you are likely to__________.

A. be bored with some kinds of snacks

B. need a car or a bus or other transport

C. spend more time for a full meal than you would

D. eat too much meat

31. What does the underlined words "increased sophistication" in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. Serving a bigger share.                    B. Offering better quality and variety.

C. Charging more for food.                   D. Using healthier mixture.

32. Appetizers used to be seen as____________.

A. cheap meal                      B. relatively important

C. a full meal                      D. an expensive meal

D

Maybe you have ever seen a cross. A cross can be a piece of jewelry or an image in

a painting. But do you know the cross is a very popular symbol for Christmas?

It came from the story of Jesus’ death on the cross two thousand years ago in Jerusalem. Jesus was Jewish,and at that time Jewish people were under Roman rule. Jesus was badly punished because he declared to be the Son of God and the King of Jews. Surely,the Son of God could have saved himself from the death!But the Bible says that Jesus had a reason to die that day. It was in God’s purpose that it would happen.

Christians call the day that Jesus died “Good Friday”. At first,it is hard to understand how a terrible day could ever be called good. Well,the story does not end there. Jesus died and he was buried. But three days later,Jesus was alive,and the whole world was changed.

Today,Christians everywhere remember this important time. They celebrate Easter. Easter is the day that Jesus rose from the dead. After his death on the cross,Jesus’ body was placed in a tomb. On the third day from then,God raised him from the dead. Jesus stayed on earth physically for several weeks. Many people saw him. Easter is the happiest time of year for Christians because they believe that Jesus had victory over death and  evil and that now he lives with God the Father in heaven. But before celebrating Easter, Good Friday should be remembered. Jesus died a horrible and painful death. He suffered, though he did nothing wrong. Christian believe that Jesus was God’s substitute(代表) for humans, because humans all do wrong. He died because of humans and he died for humans.

Christians often wear crosses around their necks or hang them in their homes because they believe it is a very important sign. The cross helps them remember how much God loves them. It helps them remember how much his Son had to suffer. Seeing a cross always makes them think of Jesus’ death, and what it means.

33.Which is the right order of the events given in the passage?

a. Jesus was sentenced to death on the cross by the Romans

b Christians began to celebrate Easter

c Jesus declared himself the Son of God and the King of the Jews

d Three days later,Jesus came to life

e. “Good Friday” came into being

A. c—a—e—d—b    B. a--e—b—d—c  C. c—a—b—d—e  D. a—e—c—d—b
