第二部分：阅读理解(共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分)

阅读下面四篇短文，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

A

In the Western world we tend to group people by age, such as 3-year-olds, 13-year-olds and 80-year-olds. Why do we separate people by age? Maybe there are reasons, but sometimes I think it’s because of ignorance, prejudice and lack of choices. It is also because of fear. We sometimes avoid old people because we are afraid of aging and dying.

On occasion I realize that I rarely spend time with elderly people. However, I have always had a good time being with them. When I think of my own experience with my grandmother, I remember her as a person who always had the patience to listen to me. Elderly people have plenty of time and have experienced a lot. They possess a wisdom that we don’t have yet. A few years ago my boyfriend and I invited our neighbor on a Sunday to drink tea with us. She was an 89-year-old woman whose husband had recently died. It took us several weeks to make up our minds to invite her because we were always very busy.

I still remember very well what a relaxing and interesting afternoon we spent together. Even after moving to another town, we still keep in touch, even if it’s only for a short visit once a year. Most of the time we are very much concerned about ourselves, and we forget about the true values in life. The closer we keep relationships with old people, the more natural things may seem to us. I believe that we need to reconnect the old and the young for our own mental and social health. They can give us knowledge, love or, at least, good memories.

41. What’s the author’s opinion towards age separation in the West now?

A. She thinks it’s reasonable.

B. She is against it.

C. She is in favour of it.

D. She has no certain view about it.

42. From her experience we may conclude that _____.

A. she is a considerate person

B. she dislikes old people

C. she must be an expert about society

D. she may lack motherly love

43. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Closing the Gap between the Old and the Young

B. Our Duty to Care for the Old

C. Old People Need Caring

D. Love from the Elderly

B

How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child----things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.

When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.

44. According to Para. 2, the writer thinks that_____.

A. life for a child is comparatively easy

B. a child is always loved whatever he does

C. if much is given to a child, he must do something in return

D. only children are interested in life

45. After a child grows up, he______.

A. will have little time playing

B. has to be successful in finding a job

C. can still ask for help when in trouble

D. should be able to take care of himself

46. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. People are often satisfied with their life

B. There are fewer interesting things for old people

C. Adults are freer to do what they want to

D. Adults should no longer rely on others

47. The main idea of the passage is_____.

A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains.

B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard

C. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s life

D. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life.

C

Louis Armstrong had two famous nicknames (绰号). Some people called him Bagamo. They said his mouth looked like a large bag, Musicians often called him Pops, as a sign of respect for his influence (影响) on the world of music .

Born in 1901 in New Orleans, he grew up poor, but lived among great musicians. Jazz was invented in the city a few years before his birth. Armstrong often said,” Jazz and I grew up together.”

Armstrong showed a great talent (天赋) for music when he was taught to play the cornet (短号) at a boy’s home. In his late teens, Armstrong began to live the life of a musician. He played in parades, clubs, and on the steamboats that traveled on the Mississippi River. At that time , New Orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians. Armstrong learned from the older musicians and soon became respected as their equal.

In 1922 he went to Chicago. There, the tale of Louis Armstrong began. From then until the end of his life, Armstrong was celebrated and loved wherever he went . Armstrong had no equal when it came to playing the American popular song.

His cornet playing had a deep humanity (仁爱) and warmth that caused many listeners to say, “Listening to Pops just makes you feel good all over.” He was the father of the jazz style(风格) and also one of the best-known and most admired people in the world. His death, on July 6, 1971, was headline news around the world.

48. Armstrong was called Pops because he         .

A. looked like a musician

B. was a musician of much influence
