第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
A
A graded reader is a book containing simplified languages used to
help learners master the language. Readers come in different levels, from
beginners to advanced. English learners need to choose a reader that is
suitable for their level.
Why use readers? Lots of research shows that extensive(广泛的) reading improves all aspects of
language learning, including vocabulary, speaking skills, fluency(流利), writing skills and reading
comprehension.
Reading is a way of learning English without classes or a teacher.
It helps develop learner independence. And while reading graded readers,
learners don’t have to run to a dictionary because the language is at their
level.
How do I get started? The entire class can read the same book or
different books at different times.
How do I know the right level? If
your class is all reading the same book, choose one that is appropriate for
their level. If your students are reading different books, you can have a
selection of books at different levels. In this case, don’t worry too much
about the level. A learner who is interested in detective stories might read a
higher level book if the motivation(动机) is there.
How
to read the book depends on students” age, motivation and class time available.
Some classes like to read silently, others like to read aloud in small groups
and some enjoy being read to by the teacher. Be sensitive to the class and ask
for their opinions.
Some
pre-reading activities are needed. Before students open a book, it is important
to spark interest in the story and in the whole process of reading. For
example, ask them to guess what the story is from cover, chapter titles and let
students put them in the best order, or discuss the author.
During reading, choose a
suitable chapter or chapters that can be broken down to make a comic strip(连环漫画). Or students select a part of
the book to make into a radio play. Students can also become journalists and
report on parts of the story. Choose a piece of action and have students write
it up. Besides, students can role-play an interview with a character.
56.The underlined word “appropriate”
in the fifth paragraph probably means “____”
A.famous B.suitable C.ordinary D.enjoyable
57.Who do you think students can
become journalists and report on parts o f the story ?
A.Students B.Parents C.Teachers D.Pupils
58.When do you think students can
become journalists and report on parts of the story?
A.Before reading B.During reading C.During warming up D.Before a test
59.From the passage, we can infer that
____.
A.readers can make classroom fun
B.Reading can help develop learners
dependence
C.some pre-reading activities are not
needed
D.extensive reading improves all
aspects of language learning

Many people hurt their backs when they try to lift heavy things from
the floor. It is easy to hurt your back muscles when you pick up a heavy
object. However, there is a correct way to lift things form the floor. If you
pick up big or heavy objects correctly, you probably will not hurt your back.
To lift something from the floor correctly, first bend your knees
and squat down. Keep your back straight. Don’t bend over from your waist; keep
your back and hips and waist in a line. If you bend over, the muscles in your
lower back can become injured very easily. If you keep your back and hips
straight, the muscles are stronger, because they have much more support. The
other muscles can then help the lower back muscles.
As you squat down, try to get as close to the object as possible.
For example, if you are going to pick up a heavy box, squat down directly in
front of it; maybe you will have to spread your knees and legs. Put one knee on
each side of the box. Remember at all times to keep your back straight.
Put your hands under the object that is in front of you, between your
knees. To lift the object, you should stand up slowly. Use your leg muscles in
order to stand up. In other words, lift with your legs, not with your back.
65.To lift a heavy object mainly
depends on ___.
A.legs B.back C.knees D.hands
66.To lift a heavy box, the most
important thing you should do is ____.
A.to put your hands under the
box B.to bend your knees and squat down.
C.to put one knee on each side of
it D.to straighten your back at all times
67.When you lift a heavy thing, which
of the following is wrong?
A.Keeping your back and hips and
waist in a line.
B.Putting one knee in front of the
thing
C.Standing up slowly
D.Putting your hands under the thing
between your knees.
68.Choose the correct order in which
one lifts a heavy object correctly.
a.Keep your back straight b.Bend your knees
c.Spread your knees and legs d.Squat down e. Stand up slowly
A.a, c, b, d, e B.b, a, c, e, d C.b, d, a, c, e D.b, a, d, c, e

Over time, the Declaration of Independence has deeply
affected American history. Phrases from the document such as “all men are
created equal” quickly took on a life of their own or were applied to groups
that the authors never expected. Blacks quickly used this language to challenge
slavery in the United States. The ideal of equality led Northern states to free
slaves in 1780s, 1790s, and early 1800s. black and white abolitionists(废奴主义者) used the ideal that all men
were created equal to attack slavery in the South before the Civil War. And
civil rights supporters gathered behind Jefferson’s words in their fight
against racism in the 1950s and 1960s. in 1848 the delegates(代表)to the Seneca Falls women’s
rights conference proclaimed that “all men and women are created equal”, and
the 20th-centruy feminist (女权主义者) did the same.
Other groups have focused on the document’s defence of the right to
rebel against an unjust government. The declaration of Independence had
a deep effect on the French Revolution; its influence was strong in the
Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, adopted by the
National Assembly of France in 1789. in the 19th century the
principles of the declaration were adopted by various Latin American movements
fighting for independence from European colonial powers. The declaration
influences more recent struggles for national identity (身份): Vietnamese Communist Leader
HoChi Mink, for example, used the American document as one of the basic
principles behind his fight to establish an independent and unified Vietnam.
The document itself continues to be an important symbol for the
American people. Today, each page of the Declaration of Independence is
protected. Over one million Americans view the document each year in
Washington, D,C. , where it is displayed along with the constitution of the
United States and the Bill of Rights.
69.What can be inferred about the 20th
–century feminists?
A.They fought against racism, using the
Declaration of Independence
B.They defended women’s rights by
referring to “men and women”
C.They held conferences to discuss the
Declaration of Independence.
D.They proclaimed the Independence
of Women’s Rights.
70.The passage gives the example of
the French Revolution to show that ____.
A.the
Declaration of Independence ensures people’s rights to supervise(监督)
the government.
B.The
Declaration of Independence ensures the equality
for all men.
C.French people and the U.S. are
closely related
D.The French Revolution had a strong
influence on many Latin American Movements
71.From the last paragraph, we can see
that today the Declaration of Independence
____.
A.has had many of its pages lost B.is only available in Washington D. C.
C.is still supported by the American
people D.has had many
changes
72.What is the main idea of the
passage?
A.The
Declaration of Independence and the French
Revolution
B.The declaration
of Independence’s influence on other countries
C.The application of the
Declaration of Independence by different people

Magic is believed to have begun with the Egyptians, in 1700BC. A
magician named Dedi of Dedsnefu was reported to have performed for the pharaoh,
or the king. He was also known to have entertained the slaves who built the
pyramids. The “Cups and Balls” trick which he was particularly good at is still
performed by magicians all over the world today.
The ancient Greeks and Romans were also fascinated(使着迷) by the idea of magic. Actually,
one of their main interests was the art of deception. This explains why at that
time the priests (牧师) even built magic devices into their temples. These devices made it
possible for doors to open by themselves and wine to flow magically out of
statues’ mouths. This was done mainly to convince people that the priests were
powerful.
Magic, however, was not well accepted before the 1800s. Magicians
were thought of as freaks(非正常人)and were only allowed to perform in a circus. It was in the 19th
century that the magician Robert Houdin came along and changed people’s views
and attitudes about magic. It was also because of Robert Huoudin that many
magicians were able to add Dr. or MD to their names. Today magicians try hard
to find new ways to show their practiced skills. Magic is now entertainment for
families all over the world.
73.Which of the following is the best
title for the passage?
A.Magical Tricks B.A Great Magician
C.Magic as Entertainment D.The History of Magic
74.Which of the following is Not true
according to the passage ?
A.Robert Houdin changed people’s
attitudes about magic in 19th century
B.Today magic is both entertainment
and science
C.Magic is the art of deception
D.Magic was not well accepted before
the 19th century
75.In ancient Greece, what did the
priests do to show people they had unusual power?
A.They performed magical tricks to
entertain people
B.They made the statues in the
temples drink wine as they wished
C.They treated the people with wine
flowing down from statues’ mouths.
D.They built magic devices in the
temples to make doors open by themselves

Dear editor,
Last year I wrote you a letter
(published in your paper)about serious pollution in Huaihe River. Our city
government paid great attention to it and accepted my suggestions about
stopping pollution of the Huaihe River and improve our surroundings. They have
closed a chemical works which polluted the Huaihe River most, and moved and
rebuilt a paper factory. We are strengthening the protection of nature and the
fight (struggle) against pollution. Now birds have returned to both sides of
the Huaihe River and people can eat fresh fish from the Huaihe River. We have
planted a lot of young trees and are raising flowers to make our surroundings
green. A water works has been built recently so that we now drink and use tap
water instead of river water. We are living a clean and happy life.
