第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)

A
He was the baby with no name. Found and taken from the north Atlantic 6 days after the sinking
of the Titanic in 1912' his tiny body so moved the salvage (救援) workers that they called him
第2页 | 共9页“our baby.” In their home port of Halifax, Nova Scotia, people collected money for a headstone
in front of the baby's grave (墓), carved with the words: “To the memory of an unknown child.”
He has rested there ever since.
But history has a way of uncovering its secrets. On Nov. 5, this year, three members of
a family from Finland arrived at Halifax and laid fresh flowers at the grave. “This is our baby,”
says Magda Schleifer, 68, a banker. She grew up hearing stories about a great-aunt named Maria
Panula,42, who had sailed on the Titanic for America to be reunited with her husband. According
to the information Mrs. Schleifer had gathered, Panula gave up her seat on a lifeboat to search
for her five children -- including a 13-month-old boy named Eino from whom she had become separated
during the final minutes of the crossing. "We thought they were all lost in the sea," says Schleifer.
Now, using teeth and bone pieces taken from the baby's grave, scientists have compared the
DNA from the Unknown Child with those collected from members of five families who lost relatives
on the Titanic and never recovered the bodies. The result of the test points only to one possible
person: young Eino. Now, the family sees: no need for a new grave. "He belongs to the people of
Halifax," says Schleifer. "They've taken care of him for 90 years."
Adapted from People, November 25, 2002
56. The baby travelled on the Titanic with his___a________.
A. mother B. parents C. aunt D. relatives
57. What is probably the boy's last name?bD

A. the unknown baby's body was taken from the north Atlantic

C. people found out who the unknown baby was
D. people took care of the unknown baby for 90 years

Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in
only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活)if the
rain is
spread throughout the year, If it falls, within one or two months and the rest of the year is
dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.
Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear
them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the
dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are
only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.
There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United
States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea
more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand , rain, heat
and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing
–-very, very slowly ---as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.
Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects
that :have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day' a visitor may see very few
第3页 | 共9页signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life.
As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.
60. Many plants may survive in deserts when________a__________.
A. the rain is spread out in a year B. the rain falls only in a few weeks
C. there is little rain in a year D. it is dry all the year round
61. Sand dunes are formed when______a_____________.
A. sand piles up gradually B. there is plenty of rain in a year
C. the sea has dried up over the years D. pieces of rock get smaller
62. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert there
is_____d_______.
A. too much sand B. more sand than before
C. nothing except sand D. something else besides sand
63 It can be learned from the text that in a desert_____b_______.
A. there is no rainfall throughout the year B. life exists in rough conditions
C. all sand dunes are a few feet high D. rocks are worn away only by wind and heat

Whoever has made a voyage up the Hudson River must remember the Catskill Mountains. They
are a branch of the great Appalachian family, and can be seen to the west rising up to a noble
height and towering over the surrounding country, when the weather is fair and settled, they are
clothed in blue and purple, and print their beautiful shapes on the clear evening sky, but sometimes
when it is cloudless, gray steam gathers around the top of the mountains which, in the last rays
of the setting sun, will shine and light up like a crown of glory (华丽的皇冠).
At the foot of these mountains, a traveler may see light smoke going up from a village.
In that village, and in one of the houses (which, to tell the exact truth, was sadly time-worn
and weather-beaten), there lived many years ago, a simple, good-natured fellow by the name of
Rip Van Winkle.
Rip's great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money-making labor. It could not
be from lack of diligence (勤劳), for he could sit all day on a wet rock and fish without saying
a word, even though he was not encouraged by a single bite. He would carry a gun on his shoulder
for hours, walking through woods and fields to shoot a few birds or squirrels. He would never
refuse to help a neighbor, even in the roughest work. The women of the village, too, used to employ
him to do such little jobs as their less helpful husbands would not do for them. In a word, Rip
was ready to attend to everybody's business but his own.
If left to himself, he would have whistled ( 吹口哨) life away in perfect satisfaction; but
his wife was always mad at him for his idleness 懒散). Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was
endlessly going, so that he was forced to escape to the outside of the house -- the only side
which, in truth, belongs to a henpecked husband.
68. Which of the following best describes the Catskill Mountains?b
A. They are on the west of the Hudson River.
B. They are very high and beautiful in this area.
C. They can be seen from the Appalachian family.
D. They gather beautiful clouds in blue and purple.
69. The hero of the story is probably____d_________.
A. hard-working and likes all kinds of work
B. idle and hates all kinds of jobs
C. simple, idle but very dutiful
D. gentle, helpful but a little idle
70. The underlined words "henpecked husband" in the last paragraph probabl_y means a man whod
A. likes hunting B. is afraid of hens
C. loves his wife D. is afraid of his wife
71. What would be the best title for the text?c
A. Catskill Mountains. B. A Mountain Village.
C. Rip Van Winkle. D. A Dutiful Husband.

Every year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport.” Progress
第6页 | 共9页in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching, and only those few who
take part realize the cruelty and destruction.
The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop proper judgments
through independent thought are led along way away by their gunning parents. They are subjected
to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and guncarrying
as a way of putting redder blood in the veins (血管). They are persuaded by gunner magazines with
stories honoring the chase and the kill. In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly
meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate
(刺激) a desire to own a gun. Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the
loss of wildland habitat (栖息地). Habitat loss will continue with our increasing population, but
can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? There doesn't seem to be any chance if the
serious condition of our birds is not improved.
Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone. Although most people do not shoot
they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only
answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.
Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there
is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures.
The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an
animal and watch it go through the agony of dying can make nobody happy. If, as they would have
you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human-character, then perhaps we should encourage
war.
72. According to the text, most people do not seem to be against hunting-because___a________.
A. they have little knowledge of it B. it helps to build human character
C. it is too costly to stop killing wildlife D. they want to keep wildlife under control
73. The underlined word "agony" in the last paragraph probably means__c____________.
A. form B. Condition C. pain D. sadness
74. According to the text, the films children watch at school actually_____d_____.
A. teach them how to deal with guns safely B. praise hunting as character-building
C. describe hunting as an exercise D. encourage them to have guns of their own
75. It can be inferred from the text that the author seems to_______aB______.
A. blame the majority of people B. worry about the existence of wildlife
C. be in favour of war D. be in support of character-building

One possible version:
Dear Bob，
It's very kind of you to write me and let me know about your beautiful city. Now I'd like to tell
you something about my hometown Jiangcheng.
The city stands on the bank of the Changiiang River. It is a beautiful place for people to
live in. Its economy has been developing rapidly in the past ten years. New factories, houses
and have been built. More schools and hospitals are available for its people. However, there are
some problems, such as water and air pollution and heavy traffic in rush hours. In my opinion,
Jiangcheng should develop its economy scientifically. I would also think that the growth population
should be brought under control so that we'll have a better hometown in future.
Yours,
Xiaohua
