三、阅读理解
（A）
“Why does the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side!”
That’s an old joke in the west, but it came to my mind again when I saw
people crossing the road at the intersection of Shaanxi Road and Huaihai Road
in Shanghai.
When the traffic light was red, a group of people were waiting for the light
to change. Suddenly one man began rushing to the other side of the road. Soon
others followed him at the crossing and more people did the same. Just like
chickens, they didn’t mind the honking horns(喇叭声) and kept crossing the road
in a mess.
Every year several thousand people are either killed or hurt on the roads in
Shanghai. And at least one third of them were jaywalking(乱穿马路). Jaywalking
is very common in Shanghai. It seems that jaywalkers are not afraid of the danger
to themselves.
Traffic laws are to keep people safe. So we should obey them, and have
good road-crossing habits. When someone starts to jaywalk, we should stop him,
and never follow him. That way we can avoid the traffic accidents.
25. The underlined word “intersection” here probably means “
”.
A. road
B. bridge
C. crossing
D. traffic
26. The writer saw people
in Shanghai that day.
A. crossing the road in a mess
B. waiting for the green light patiently
C. crossing the road with chickens
D. hurting each other in the street
27. How does the writer like what he saw in Shanghai that day?
A. He thinks it’s OK.
B. He thinks it’s wrong.
C. He has no idea of it.
D. He doesn’t mention it
（B）
My teenage son Karl became withdrawn(孤僻的) after his father died. As a
single parent，I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried，the more
he pulled away(疏远)．When his report card arrived during his junior year，it
said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for
the year. I considered he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser，
and I even begged him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and pleaded for
help.“Please God，I can't do anything more for my son. I'm at the end of my
rope. I'm giving the whole thing up to you.”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the
headmaster.“I want to talk to you about Karl's absences.”Before he could say
another word，I choked up and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl
came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don't
know what to do. I've tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and
nothing has worked. It's out of my hands. ”For a moment there was silence on the
other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said，“Thank you for your time”，
and hung up.
Karl's next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally，
he even made the honor roll(上光荣榜)．In his fourth year，I attended a parent-
-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the
way(自始至终) he had turned himself around. On our way home，he said，
“Mum，remember that call from the headmaster last year？”I nodded.“That was
me. I thought I'd play a joke but when I heard what you said，it really hit me
how much I was hurting you. That's when I knew I had to make you proud.”
28. By saying “Karl became withdrawn”,the author means that the boy changed
completely and __.
A. preferred to stay alone at home
B. lost interest in any activity
C. refused to talk to others
D. began to dislike his mother
29.There was silence on the other end of the line because
.
A. the speaker was too moved to say anything to the mother
B. the speaker waited for the mother to finish speaking
C. the speaker didn't want the mother to recognize his voice
D. the speaker was unable to interrupt the mother
30.What is the main idea of this passage？
A. Children in single parent families often have mental problems.
B. Mother's love plays an important role in teenagers' life.
C. Being understood by parents is very important to teenagers.
D. School education doesn't work without full support from parents.
（C）
It seems that there’s a good reason why dogs are always seen as man’s best
friend. Scientists have found that dogs are the only animals that can read
emotion( 情感)in faces much like humans. The finding suggests that like an
understanding friend, dogs can see if we are happy, sad, pleased or angry.
When humans look at a new face, their eyes usually look across the left,
falling on the right hand side of the person’s face first. A possible reason for this
is that the right side of the human face is better at expressing emotions.
Scientists have now shown that pet dogs also have “left gaze bias(左视偏
好)”, but only when looking at human faces. No other animal has been known to
do like this before. Dr. Kun Guo showed 17 dogs pictures of human, dog and
monkey faces as well as something else with his team. The dogs’ eyes and heads
show a strong left gaze bias when the animals see human faces. But this did not
happen when they were shown other pictures, including those of dogs.
Guo suggests that over thousands of years living with humans, dogs may
have developed the left gaze bias as a way to guess our emotions.
“Recent studies show that the right side of our faces can express emotions
better than the left. If true, then it makes sense for dogs and humans to see the
right hand side of a face first.”
31. Why are dogs seen as man’s best friend according to the passage?
A. Because dogs are the closest animals to humans.
B. Because dogs can read the emotions in humans’ faces easily.
C. Because dogs can understand us better when we feel sad.
D. Because dogs are good at expressing emotions.
32. The dogs’ left gaze bias helps them _______.
A. get along well with humans
B. express emotions quickly
C. have more understanding friends D. remember more new faces
33. The passage mainly wants to tell us that _______.
A. dogs have been man’s best friends for thousands of years
B. humans have a “left gaze bias”
C. dogs can read emotions the same as humans
D. the “left gaze bias” works on all animals
（D）
A team of US psychologists(心理学家) have found that talking to another
person for ten minutes a day helps with memory.
“Socializing(交际) is just as effective as more traditional kinds of mental
exercise in boosting memory and intellectual( 智力的) performance,” Oscar
Ybarra, a psychologist at the University of Michigan Institute for Social
Research, said in a statement.
In one investigation, they analyzed data on 3610 people, aged 24 to 96.
They found that the higher their level of social interaction(交流), the better
their cognitive(认知的) functioning. Social interaction includes getting together
or having phone chats with relatives, friends and neighbors.
In another experiment, the researchers conducted laboratory tests on 76
college students, aged 18 to 21, to evaluate(评估) how social interactions and
intellectual exercises affected the results of memory and mental performance
tests.
The students were divided into three groups: the social interaction group had
a discussion of a social issue for 10 minutes before taking the tests; the
intellectual activities group completed three tasks (including a reading
comprehension exercise and a crossword puzzle) before the tests; and a control
group(对照组) watched a 10-minute clip(电影片段) of the Seinfeld television
show.
“We found that short-term social interaction lasting for just 10 minutes
improved participants’ (参与者) intellectual performance as much as engaging in
(从事) so-called ‘intellectual’ activities for the same amount of time,” Ybarra
said.
The study was expected to be published in the February issue of the journal
Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.
34. What does the underlined word “boosting” in the second paragraph probably
mean?
A. Improving.
B. Reducing.
C. Preventing. D. Training.
35. Which is not included in social interaction?
A. Having a talk with a neighbor.
B. Attending a birthday party.
C. Watching TV at home alone.
D. Calling your classmates.
36. What’s the purpose of the experiment on 76 college students?
A. To judge the effect of social interaction on memory and intelligence.
B. To find out what is real social interaction.
C. To learn how much time is needed for social interaction.
D. To show the function of people's cognition.
37. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Intellectual exercises make your memory better.
B. Different people have different ways of communication.
C. Communicating with others keeps you healthy.
D. Social interaction makes you smart.
