阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。

A

Before 1900, many theories existed as to the cause of yellow fever(黄热病). Some doctors were sure the disease was air-borne; others felt that it was spread from person to person. Dr.Carlos Finlay, a well-known Cuban doctor of that time, had long held the theory that it was caused by the bite of mosquito(蚊子). But neither the public nor the doctors then accepted his idea.

Despite this, Walter Reed, an American doctor sent to study yellow fever in Cuba, went to talk with Finlay. Reed, after reading a lot on the subject, had begun to think that Dr. Finlay might be right. Then Reed and his comrades set to work at once.

Outside Havana, they set up a laboratory and began experiments to test the theory. The experiments were successful. Now we know: A period of about two weeks must pass before a mosquito, after feeding on a sick person, could infect(传染) another person; the sick person had to have yellow fever a certain number of days before the mosquito biting him was able to carry the disease.
46.Before 1900, many people didn't think yellow fever was spread ______.
A.by air
B.by getting in touch with the patient
C.by the bite of mosquitos

A.Reed agreed with Finlay after his talk with him.
B.Reed proved the theory by reading a lot of articles.
C.Reed proved the theory in his American lab.

答案:D
48.Who first realized the actual cause?
A.The public.        B.Reed.
C.Finlay.         D.Doctors.
解析:注意题目中用的是realized而不是proved。
答案:C
49.A person comes down with yellow fever because he has been bitten ______.
A.by a mosquito
B.by a mosquito that has bitten the patient
C.by an infected mosquito
D.by a mosquito that has bitten the patient of some days
解析:根据文中倒数第一、二句我们知道蚊子只有叮咬已患病数天的人才有传播疾病的能力。因此只有D项最全面。
答案:D
50.What is the possible title for the passage?
A.Reed,an Outstanding Doctor
B.Several Theories on Yellow Fever
C.Fight Against Yellow Fever
D.The Cause of Yellow Fever
解析:A项与B项只是文中提及的内容。C项太空泛,不及D项具体切文。
答案:D

Early this month, on the Egyptian-Israeli border not far from her hometown, a series of bombings killed 35 people and injured more than 160. Despite the attack, life quickly returned to normal. Living under the threat of attack is normal here.

Israel teenagers' interests are not very different from others'."Low-cut jeans(低腰牛仔裤) and miniskirts are very in," said Hinanit, an 18-year-old teenager.

"You cannot let the fighting control what you do and don't do. Of course I am scared sometimes, but I still go out and have fun. You always have to be careful, and things are probably more dangerous now, but I still love Israel. It is my home, and I would not leave it for anything!" Cohen said.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Gaza Strip, a Palestinian boy named Bilal lies in a hospital bed, with his friends round, praying for his life. He has been in a coma(昏迷) since Israeli soldiers shot him on his way to school last month. In this recent military action(军事行动), Israeli soldiers have killed at least 83 Palestinians, including 24 children.

Palestinian children lead a dangerous life under the watchful eyes of Israeli soldiers. Israel presents them as terrorists(恐怖分子) and faceless stone throwers. Many Palestinian children have been driven away from homes into crowded and hungry refugee camps with their families. "Even if we are surrounded by Israeli soldiers and have no food, we will stand and defend our country," said Fatima Al-Aidi, a 13-year-old teenager, who lost a friend in Israel's recent attack."I hope to carry a lot of weapons and take my revenge(报复) one day. I hope the day comes when the enemy leaves Palestine."
51.The underlined sentence "Despite the attack,life quickly returned to normal" means "______".
A.Life has returned to normal as a result of the attack
B.Life remains normal even if there was an attack
C.Life has returned to normal,although there was an attack
D.If there is not the attack,life will return to normal

答案:C
52.Cohen's words suggests that she______.
A.is living in horror
B.is peace-loving
C.wants to join the army
D.doesn't let fighting change her life
解析:根据文章中"You cannot let the fighting control what you do and don't do."一句话可以看出:她不会让战斗影响她的生活。
答案:D
53.The description of Bilal is used to show ______.
A.he is the unluckiest boy
B.living in Palestine is in danger
C.Israeli soldiers are cruel
D.people are kind to him
解析:从一次军事行动中造成的人员伤亡的情况来推测,我们可以知道,生活在巴勒斯坦是非常危险的。
答案:B
54.How does Israel think of Palestinian children? They are______.
A.lovely         B.smart
C.friendly        D.dangerous
解析:由文章中faceless stone throwers(不露面的扔石头者)可知:以色列人认为他们是危险分子。
答案:D
55.What can we learn from what Fatima Al-Aidi said?
A.He was in poor health.
B.He hated Israeli soldiers.
C.He was eager to invent some other weapons to attack Israel.
D.He wishes more help to be given.
解析:从他的话"I hope to carry a lot of weapons and take my revenge(报复) one day."可知:他憎恨他们。
答案:B

第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。

A
Why Are Arabic Figures in Wide Use?

Why are Arabic figures used everywhere in the world?In the past, other counting figures once existed in many countries, but they all died away. The Roman figures, for instance, were popular in Europe before the 13th century. However, they are hardly in use now, except on some clocks and watches, and on other rare occasions. Look at the following and you will know why it is so.

The Romans used seven letters, each standing for a different number, I for 1,V for 5,X for 10, L for 50,C for 100,D for 500, and M for 1 000. To express a small number the Romans would use repetitions or additions,or subtractions(减法). For instance, II means 2, XXX means 30 (repetition); VII means 7 (addition) and IV expresses 4 (subtraction).

To express a number a thousand times larger, they put a line above the number. Thus, XVI=  16 000,and CDXLVII=447 000. To show the year 1993 in Roman figures,it will be "MCMXCIII". The inconvenience(不方便) is quite clear.Besides,it would be difficult to express in Roman figures a decimal point(小数点) or a fraction(分数).

The Arabic numbers, on the other hand, avoid all this trouble. First they are decimal(十进制的). Second, they are easy to write. It is these strong points that make the Arabic figures accepted by people all over the world.
46.The Roman figures were widely used______.
A.during Shakespeare's time
B.in the United States
C.in the world
D.in Europe before the thirteenth century
解析:根据文章第一段中"The Roman figures, for instance,were popular in Europe before the 13th century."一句话我们可以推断出:在13世纪前,罗马数字在欧洲应该是被广泛应用的。
答案:D
47.The number LV means______.
A.a thousand times       B.55 000
C.5 500         D.more than five thousand
解析:根据第二段中所给的两个例子,我们可以知道,上划线代表该数字的1 000倍;而罗马数字LV用阿拉伯数字表示就是55,所以题干中的数字意思就是55 000。
答案:B
48.If we show the year 1548 in Roman figures, it will be______.
A.MVMIVIII        B.MDXLVIII
C.MDMXXXXVIII       D.MDXLVIII
解析:根据第三段中1993年的实例以及第二段中罗马数字的标注方式,我们可以推导出:1 000用M来表示,500用D来表示,40用XL来表示,8用VIII来表示。
答案:B
49.Why are Arabic figures widely used in the world?
A.Other counting figures died away.
B.Arabic figures are convenient and easy to express decimal point and fraction.
C.Arabic figures are decimal.
D.Both B and C.
解析:该题为归纳判断题。根据文章最后一段以及倒数第二段最后一句可以判断出答案。
答案: D

B

Well, Mrs Evans,I've done my best to look after David. I've tidied his room up every day, got him a meal together whenever he needed one and made sure he's always had a clean shirt to put on. It's not been easy, with two of my own to worry about, as well. David had the best of attention, I must say.But now because I asked him to give up bringing that American friend to his home he has got quite miserable and unfriendly. He comes in at all hours and his behavior—well, it's quite hard to put up with—and it's all because of this friend. I'm sure he's a bad influence.You see, David's a visitor and doesn't fully understand our ways.

He used to study most evenings. He's got through quite a bit of work.He did up his room quite nicely, with bookshelves and large posters. He'd ask Mr Smith and me up for a drink and cheer us up with songs from his country. He's very good at the guitar, you know.

I don't want to appear as if I'm running after him, but it's about time we made it up. I'm sure he's upset because I told him off. It might be a good idea to take him out for a meal, perhaps even with his friend. I don't know whether it will do any good but we can try. I'm glad I've had this little chat with you, Mrs Evans, and I'll let you know how I get on.
50.David is ______.
A.an American friend      B.Mrs Smith's son
C.a visiting student       D.a singer
解析:细节判断题。文中第一段,作者告诉我们,"我"在尽力照顾David,罗列了替他所做的一些事情,而且在末尾一句写道:"You see,David's a visitor and doesn't fully understand our ways."
答案:C
51.Mrs Smith believes that David is NOT the cause of the quarrel but that the main cause is ______.
A.Mr Smith        B.too much homework
C.David's friend       D.David's behavior
解析:细节推断题。作者在给David的母亲Mrs Evans的信中提到,"我"让他不要把他的美国朋友带回家,他回来得很晚,而且他的举止让人难以忍受,所有这些都是因为他的朋友。作者确信他的朋友对David有很坏的影响。
答案:C
52.Mrs Smith wants to make up the quarrel by ______.
A.cooking a meal
B.giving them drinks
C.inviting David and his friend out
D.running after David
解析:细节题。由文中第三段,在他们发生争吵后,作者写道:"It might be a good idea to take him out for a meal,perhaps even with his friend."可判断出。
答案:C
53.David's present attitude to Mrs Smith is ______.
A.very attentive       B.unfriendly
C.cheerful        D.incomprehensible
解析:细节题。由文中第一段"...he's got quite miserable and unfriendly."可推断出。
答案:B

A.a fridge for only $320
B.a coffee table which is made of fine wood

解析:该题为细节判断题。根据第二则广告可知:冰箱的价格为$350; 一套扶手椅的总价格为$160,但并不等于每一张扶手椅的价格为$40;每本书的最高价位$10。根据这些信息我们可以推断出A、C、D三项有误。

B.Among the things for sale,there is a model sailing boat.
C.A college student of electronics can take a part-time job at Nowa Electronics.

答案:A

D

    Dear Dr.Kemberg,

    My mother and I can't get along any more. I went to work things out, but I just can't. I'm thinking about running away. Please help.

Henry

    Dear Henry,

    I don't know what's wrong between you and your mother, but running away is useless! Whatever the problem might be, it will still be there no matter how far you run.You said you want to work things out. In most cities ther are centers and groups working with children and their families. Ask your teacher if he or she knows of any such groups. With their help you may be able to work things out. The only thing running away will do is to cause more problems for you.

Yours,
Kemberg
