第二大题 阅读理解（共25小题。第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题1分；满分45分）
第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选
项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
For centuries ,the only form of written correspondence（通信）was the
letter .Letters were ,and are ,sent by some form of postal service ,the history of
which goes back a long way. Indeed ,the Egyptians began sending letters from about
第4页 | 共14页2000 BC, as did the Chinese a thousand years later.
Of course ,modern postal services now are much more developed and
faster ,depending as they do on cars and planes for delivery .Yet they are still
too slow for some people to send urgent documents（紧急文件）and letters.
The invention of the fax（传真）machine increased the speed of delivering
documents even more .When you send a fax ,you are sending a copy of a piece of
correspondence to someone by telephone service .It was not until the early 1980s
that such a service was developed enough for businesses to be able to fax documents
to each other.
The fax service is still very much in use when copies of documents require to
be sent ,but ,as a way of fast correspondence, it has been largely taken the place
of by email. Email is used to describe messages sent from one computer user to
another.
There are advantages and disadvantages with emails. If you send someone and email,
then he will receive it extremely quickly. Normal postal services are rather slow
as far as speed of delivery is concerned.
However ,if you write something by email ,which you might later regret ,and send
it immediately ,there is no chance for second thoughts. At least ,if you are posting
a letter you have to address and seal（封）the envelope and take it to the post
box .There is plenty of time to change your mind. The message is think before you
email!
41．We can learn from the text that .
A．email is less popular than the fax service
B．the postal service has over the years become faster
C．the postal service has over the years become slower
D．the fax service has a history as long as the postal service does
42．It can be inferred from the text that .
A．the fax service had been fully developed by the 1980s
B．letters have been used in China for about 1,000 years
C．the fax machine was invented after the 1980s
D．letters have been used in Egypt for about 2,000 years
43．In the last paragraph ,the writer mentions “think before you email” to show
that .
A．you may regret if you don’t seal your envelope
B．you may regret before you send something by email
C．you’d better not send your email in a hurry
D．you need plenty of time to send an email
44．The text mainly deals with .
A．the progress in correspondence
第5页 | 共14页B．the advantage of fax machines
C．the advantage of emails
D．the invention of fax machines
B

After an 11,000-mile flight across the globe, she was greeted by Eddy’s
astonished roommate asking what she was doing there.
Eddy, a 27-year-old engineer ,had taken a year off to travel round Australia .But

（订婚）ring, wine and flowers.
“I really missed Anna and I’d been thinking about her all the time. I was so
excited when she phoned me from Australia,” he said.
Eddy then asked Anna to marry him on the phone. “I didn’t know whether to laugh
or cry but I accepted,” she said.
Anna was given a tour of Sydney by Eddy’s friends before going back home .Eddy
had to stay in Britain for two weeks because he could not change his ticket.

If you’re like most students , you probably read both at home and outside your
home: perhaps somewhere on your schoolyard and maybe even at work during your breaks.
Your reading environment can have a great effect on your understanding ,so give some
thought to how you can create（营造）or choose the right reading environments. The
right environment allows you to stay alert（专注的）and to keep all of your attention
on the text, especially when it is both interesting and difficult.
When you’re at home ,you can usually create effective conditions for reading.
You might want to choose a particular place— a desk or table, for example –where
you always read .Make sure the place you choose is well lighted ,and sit in a chair
that requires you to sit straight. Reading in a chair that’s too soft and comfortable
is likely to make you sleepy! Keep your active reading tools
(pens ,markers ,notebooks or paper) and a dictionary close at hand.
Before you sit down for a reading period ,try to reduce all possible
interruptions. Turn off your phone, the television, and the radio. Tell your family
members or roommates that you’ll be busy for a while .If necessary, put a “Do not
disturb” sign on your door! The more interruptions you must deal with while you
read, the harder it will be to keep your attention on the task at hand.
49．The author believes that the right reading environment __________.
A．helps readers a little in their reading tasks
B．helps readers a lot in their reading tasks
C．can only be created at one’s home
D．can only be created outside one’s home
50．Which type of the following interruptions is mentioned in the text?
第7页 | 共14页A．Dictionaries. B．Paper.
C．Phone calls. D．Notebooks.
51．What would be the best title for the text?
A．How to Read Fast
B．Creating an Effective Reading Environment
C．The Ways to Reduce Possible Interruptions
D．What to Read

In many countries the standard of living enjoyed by their people has increased
rapidly in recent years. Sadly, not everyone in these countries is so fortunate and
many people in rich countries are homeless.
The reasons for homelessness are various, but poverty(贫穷) is undoubtedly one
of the main causes. The homeless people may have become jobless and then been unable
to pay their rent and so no longer have a roof over their heads. Often, the fact
that unemployed people get help from the government prevents this from happening,
but not always.
Some homeless people are mentally ill and have no one to look after them. Some
are young people who, for one reason or another, have left home and have nowhere
to live. Many of them have had a serious disagreement with their parents and have
left home, choosing to go to a city and live on the streets. Sometimes they have
taken such action because they have been unable to get on with a step-parent.
Many homeless people get into the habit of begging to get enough money to stay
alive, but many of the general public refuse to give anything to beggars. Often they
are moved on by the police, being accused(指控), whether rightly or wrongly, of
forceful begging. There are many who disrespect homeless people.
Some cynics(愤世嫉俗的人) declare that homeless people choose to live the life
which they lead. But who would willingly choose to live in a shop doorway, under
a bridge or in a cardboard box?
52．According to the text, what causes some people to be homeless?
A．Lack of money. B．The increased standard of living.
第8页 | 共14页C．No government help. D．Agreement with their parents.
53．It can be inferred from the text that _________.
A．the homeless are willing to live under a bridge or in a cardboard box
B．you will not find homeless people in countries with a high standard of living
C．the mentally ill live on the streets because they want the company of other
home-
less people
D．the unemployed who receive help may still be among the homeless
54．In paragraph 2, “a roof over their heads” most probably means _________.
A．a cap B．a car
C．a home D．a covering
55．The author thinks that the homeless people are .
A．pitiful B．troublesome
C．respectable D．admirable
E
Among rich countries, people in the United States work the longest hours. They
work much longer than in Europe. This difference is quite surprising because
productivity per hour worked is the same in the United States as it is in France,
Spain and Germany, and it is growing at a similar speed.
In most countries and at most times in history, as people have become richer
they have chosen to work less. In other words they have decided to “spend” a part
of their extra income on a fuller personal life. Over the last fifty years Europeans
have continued this pattern, and hours of work have fallen sharply. But not in the
United States. We do not fully know why this is. One reason may be greatly lower
taxes in America, which increase the rewards (回报) to work. Another may be more
satisfying work, or less satisfying personal lives.
Longer hours do of course increase the GDP (国内生产总值). So the United States
has produced more per worker than, say, France. The United Sates also has more of
its people at work, while in France many more mothers and older workers have decided
第9页 | 共14页to stay at home. The overall result is that American GDP per head is 40% higher than
in France, even though productivity per hour worked is the same.
It is not clear which of the two situations is better. As we have seen, work
has to be compared with other values like family life, which often get lost in its
interest. It is too early to explain the
different trends (趋势) in happiness over time in different countries. But it is
a disappointing idea that in the United States happiness has made no progress since
1975, while it has risen in Europe. Could this have anything to do with trends in
the work-life balance (平衡)?
56．From the text we know that the author ___________.
A．believes that longer working hours is better
B．prefers shorter working hours to longer ones
C．says nothing certain about which pattern is better
D．thinks neither of the patterns is good
57．Which of the following countries has more of its people at work?
A．Spain. B．France.
C．Germany. D．America.
58．In the last paragraph, the underlined word “which” refers to __________.
A．family life B．situations
C．other values D．trends
59．What message can we get from the text?
A．The GDP of Europe is higher than that of America.
B．Two possible reasons are given for working longer hours in the US.
C．People all over the world choose to work less when they are richer.
D．Americans are happier than Europeans.
60．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．Americans and Europeans. B．Staying at Home.
C．Work and Productivity. D．Work and Happiness.

第三节 （30分）
The summer holiday is coming. Our class have had a discussion about what to do
during the holiday. Some are in favor of staying at home .They think it’s both
convenient and comfortable. What’s more ,they can save money for other purposes .But
they will lose the chance of getting to know that outside world.
However ,others prefer to go out for traveling since it can increase their
knowledge and broaden their horizons. But they will spend more money and meet some
difficulties , while traveling.
In my opinion, it would be much better stay at home ,for I can do what I like ,such
as reading books ,watching TV, and helping my parents with the housework.
