三、阅读理解(共10小题：每小题2分，满分20分)
阅读下面的三篇短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选择最
佳选项。
There is an old saying that all of us are born with two bags hung on our
necks. A small bag in front of our chest is filled up with other people's
faults (缺点), while the big one at the back is full of our own shortcomings
(短处).
So it’s easy to find other people's faults, but it's hard for us to see
our faults behind us.
There was a boy, Tommy, who always opened the front bag to check what was
in it. He saw other people's faults very quickly. When Simon was impatient with
him, he said to Simon, "It's so easy for you to get angry. It is hard to be
friends with you."
He told his mother about Jack's dishonesty. "Jack takes my things without
asking. He also forgets to return them." Tommy himself did not like sharing his
things with anyone.
When Johnny was too tired to play with him, he said, "'You are such a rude
person."
He thought Harry was too proud of his rich parents. But Tommy was as proud
of himself because he could not see any of his own shortcomings! He could not
understand why he did not get on well with others.
If only Tommy would switch the bags around, he would discover his own
impatience, dishonesty, bad manners and vanity (虚荣), which were no better
than that of Simon, Jack, Johnny or Harry.
26. Tommy thought it was hard to be friends with Simon because Simon was
_________.
A. impatient B. a rude person
C. dishonest D. too proud of his rich parents
27. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A, Tommy was a person liked by others.
B, Tommy liked sharing his things with others.
C. Tommy always discovered his own shortcoming.
D. Maybe Tommy was no better than Simon, Jack, Johnny or Harry.
28. In this passage, the writer mainly wanted to tell us ________.
A. to be more patient
B. not to be a person with vanity
C. not to take others' things without asking
D. to pay more attention to our own shortcomings
B
Do you know that it is your immune system (免疫系统) working against the
virus that makes you uncomfortable when getting a cold, but not the virus
用心 爱心 专心 3itself? So when you have got a strong immune system—and the virus is strong
enough too—you will possibly get terrible cold symptoms (症状) such as having
a headache, having a high fever, sneezing or coughing,
Vitamin C won't stop a cold. It is said that Vitamin C works by increasing
white blood cells.
However, many tests have shown that it does not prevent colds. At best, it only
reduces the time of symptoms.
Staying indoors won't protect you. One of the most likely sources (根源) of
cold viruses is your computer mouse or desk. A study of the cold virus in
offices found that 46 per cent of computer mice and 45 per cent of telephones
had cold viruses on them.
Wearing warm clothes won't protect you. Colds are more common in autumn and
winter. That's because the cool, wet and cold weather drives people indoors,
where viruses may more easily jump from one person to the next. And the
distinct peak (高峰期) in colds is in September and February, which likely
because of the return of students to schools and colleges after the summer and
winter holidays.
Old wives are right about chicken soup. Grandmothers' chicken soup is an
old cure for colds for a long 6me. Scientists say it is true. Chicken soup
does help cure a cold, so many wives usually cook chicken soup for their family
members in cold winters.
29. According to the passage, when your immune system is working against the
virus, you don't have cold symptoms like ________.
A. headache B. stomachache C. sneeze D. cough
30. Which of the following ways can really help cure colds?
A. Staying indoors.
B. Wearing more clothes.
C. Drinking some chicken soup.
D. Eating some fruit with Vitamin C.
31. Why are colds more common in autumn and winter?
A. Because students return to school.
B. Because the weather is cool, wet and cold.
C. Because people don't drink chicken soup.
D. Because people use computers or telephones more often.
C
At noon the rush hour had passed. There were few guests (顾客) in the snack
bar. It was not crowded. When the boss was about to take a break to read a
newspaper, in came an old lady and a little boy.
“How much money is a bowl of beef soup?” the grandma sat down, counted
the money in her purse and ordered a bowl of beef soup. The grandma pushed the
bowl to the little boy, who swallowed (吞咽) his saliva (口水), looking at his
grandma and saying, "Grandma, did you really have lunch?" "Of course." His
grandma chewed (咀嚼) a piece of radish (萝卜泡菜) slowly. Very quickly, the
little boy ate up the meal.
用心 爱心 专心 4Seeing this. the boss went over to them and said, "Old lady,
congratulations, you are lucky to have the free food, for you are our 100th
guest."
Afterwards, over a month or more, one day, the small boy squatted (蹲)
across the snack bar, where he seemed to be counting something, which shocked
the boss when he happened to look out office window.
When the small boy saw a guest walk into the snack bar, he would put a
small stone into the circle he drew, but the lunch time had almost passed, the
small stones he put into the circle were hardly 50.
The boss was quite worried and called up all his old guests. The guests
started coming one after another.
"81, 82, 83… " the small boy counted faster and faster. At last, when the
99th small stone was put into the circle, the little boy hurried to pull his
grandma's hand and went into the snack bar.
"Grandma, this time it's on me," the little boy said proudly. The grandma
who had become the real 100th guest was served a bowl of beef soup by her
grandson. As his grandma as before, the little boy chewed a piece of radish in
his mouth.
32. Grandma ordered only one bowl of beef soup because ________.
A. Grandma only liked radish
B. Grandma didn't like beef soup
C. Grandma loved her grandson more than herself
D. There was only one bowl of beef soup left in the snack bar at that time
33. What do you think of the boss of the snack bar'?
A. Impatient. B. Warm hearted. C. Very rich. D. Hard-
working.
34. Why did the boy put the small stones into the circle he drew?
A. He played games with his friends.
B. He was asked to count the guests for the boss.
C. He wanted to get the free beef soup for his grandma.
D. He only wanted to know the number of the small stones.

The stressful school life and unhealthy lifestyles cause some problems to
students. Here are some key mistakes and some tips.
■ Sitting too long
So much homework and many computer games make students sit for several
hours without standing or walking around. Because of long time sitting, some
students have got diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease (疾病).
Tips: ·Get up and out of your chair for about five minutes every hour.
·Walk over to a person instead of sending e-mails or text messages.
■ Eating irregularly
Some students develop unhealthy eating habits. Fast food becomes more
often. Heavy studying and stress prevent students from eating meals regularly.
Tips: ·Eat breakfast with eggs at the start of every day.
·Buy healthy snacks like nuts and fruits, and eat them between meals.
·Have three meals a day at the right time.
■ Sleeping less
Not enough sleep breaks the smooth cycle of our biological clock (生物钟).
It can cause heart disease and high blood pressure (高血压).
Tips: ·Be sure to sleep for seven to eight hours every night.
·Have a rest for about 30 minutes at noon.
■ Having lots of energy drinks
An energy drink or an extra cup of coffee might seem like the only way to
get through a late-night study time. High levels of caffeine (咖啡因) can also
cause high blood pressure.
Tips: ·The safest way to get more energy is to eat regular meals, sleep well,
exercise and drink lots of water.

One possible version:
Everyone has his/her dream. The one who never gives up can achieve his/her
goal. Tom is a very good example. He was born in a poor family. His parents
didn't have enough money to pay for his study so that he couldn't go to school.
He was very sad, but nothing could stop him from studying. He kept on learning
by himself at home. At last, he got high grades and entered his ideal college.
Unfortunately, a terrible accident happened to his parents. During the time he
was at college, he did part-time jobs for a living and took good care of his
parents. Because he followed his dream all the time, he became the owner of a
large farm successfully.
I have my own dream, too. I want to be a teacher to help the children in
poor areas. From now on, I must work hard, correct my own shortcomings and
improve myself. I will never give up my dream whenever lacing difficulties. I'm
sure my dream will come true.
