Some shoppers are 48 of department stores and supermarkets —fighting the crowds, waiting in long lines, and sometimes having slight hope of finding anything they want to buy.

Ⅲ. 阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分,共30分）

根据下列短文内容回答问题。在每小题下面的4个选项中选出正确选项，并将答题卡上对应的字母涂黑。

Passage A

A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms（习语）, though my teacher emphasized （强调）the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.

One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, he seemed to be astonished. Gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don?t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perha ps this is not an appropriate（恰当的）topic.

“Well, I?d better change the topic.” So I said to him, “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there? ” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent.” H e was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his words: “You don?t say!”

I couldn?t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didn?t request you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn?t you say …You don?t say??” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “ …You don?t say? actually means …really?. It is an expressio n of surprise. Perhaps you don?t pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I know I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions.

61. A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because______.

A. English idioms were not important

B. I was not careful with English idioms

C. my teacher didn?t emphasize the importance of them

D. I had interest in them

62. At first, on hearing “You don?t say”, I thought the Englishman meant________.

A. he was not interested in the topic

B. he was only interested in the Great Wall

C. I had to keep on

D. I had to go on

63. The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means_______.

A. interesting

B. important

C. terrible

D. unlucky

64. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The Englishman left China without seeing the Great Wall.

B. The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it.

C. The Englishman wanted me to act as his guide.

D. The Englishman visited the Great Wall and thought it worth visiting.

Passage B

Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.

Some sports are resource-hungry(消耗资源的). Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses （球场）in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.

There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don?t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes, and you don?t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.

Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the fi nal goal should be “green gyms(体育馆)”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of a ll, it?s free.

65. Which of the following does the author most probably suggest?

A. Bicycle riding around a lake.

B. Playing golf on a golf-course.

C. Playing basketball in a gym.

D. Swimming in a sports center.

66. What do we know about golf from the passage?

A. It is popular in Portugal and Spain.

B. It causes water shortage around the world.

C. It pollutes the earth with waste.

D. It needs a large amount of water to keep its courses green.

67. The author uses power walking as an example mainly because _________.

A. it is an outdoor sport

B. it improves our health

C. it uses fewer resources

D. it is recommended by experts

68. The author writes the article to _________.

A. show us the function of major sports

B. encourage us to have green sports

C. discuss the major influence of popular sports

D. introduce different types of environment-friendly sports

Passage C

Quite different from storm waves are the giant sea waves called tsunamis( 海啸), which are from the Japanese expression for “high water in a harbor”. These waves are also referred to by the general public as tidal waves, although they have relatively little to do with tides. Scientists often

refer to them as earthquake sea waves, far more appropriate in that they do result from earthquake activity.

Tsunamis often occur in the Pacific because the Pacific is an area of heavy earthquake activity. Two areas of the Pacific well accustomed to the threat of tsunamis are Japan and Hawaii. Because the earthquake activity that causes tsunamis in Japan often occurs on the ocean bottom quite close to the islands. The tsunamis that hit Japan often come with little warning and can therefore prove disastrous(灾难性的). Most of the tsunamis that hit the Hawaiian Islands, however, originate（起源）thousands of miles away near the coast of Alaska, so these tsunamis have a much greater distance to travel and the people of Hawaii generally have time for warning of their arrival.

Tsunamis are certainly not limited to Japan and Hawaii. In 1755, Europe experienced a disastrous tsunami, when movement near the Azores caused a massive tsunami to sweep onto the Portuguese coast and flood the heavily populated area around Lisbon. The greatest tsunami on record occurred on the other side of the world in 1883 when the Krakatoa volcano（火山）underwent a massive explosion（爆炸）, sending waves more than 30 meters high onto nearby Indonesian islands. The tsunami from this volcano actually traveled around the world and was witnessed as far as the English Channel.

69. The paragraph before this passage possibly is about __________.

A. giant sea waves

B. storm waves

C. earthquake activities

D. history of tsunami

70. Tsunamis in Hawaii are more likely to ___________.

A. cause more problems

B. come without warning

C. happen deeper undersea

D. be formed far away from the coast

71. The tsunami caused by Krakatoa volcano in 1883 must ___________.

A. have brought massive waves to the English Channel

B. have brought a huge disaster to the Indonesian islands

C. have been felt from the rest of the world

D. have thrown Lisbon into a state of disorder

72. It is implied in the passage that tsunamis ___________.

A. are always higher than 20 meters

B. are not dangerous on the coast

C. can be forecasted as soon as they take place

D. do not take place like regular tides

Passage D

Time and time again, one may be warned, “Your name will be mud.” Many have used the expression in the mistaken belief that it has something to do with the kind of dirt found in the streets or on unclean river bottoms. But the expression comes from the name of Doctor Samuel Alexander Mudd, a physician who fixed the broken leg of John Wilkes Booth, the man who killed President Abraham Lincoln. Doctor Mudd treated Booth?s injured leg without knowing who he was.

A small group helped Booth to plan Lincoln?s murder（谋杀）. They were all caught and sentenced to death or prison terms（监禁）.

Doctor Mudd had nothing to do with Lincoln?s murder or with any of the men who had planned it. All seemed to show that he was an innocent（无辜的）man. But he had given some kind of help only to leave Booth to escape. This in itself was a crime then. And so, Doctor Mudd was sentenced to prison for life.

In prison, Doctor Mudd saved many prisoners and guards in a yellow fever outbreak. President Andrew Johnson set him free in 1869, after the doctor had spent almost four years in prison.

The murder of Lincoln was certainly a heavy blow to the American people. It filled them with bitterness that lasted many years. They hated Booth very much and they also hated anybody who had helped the murder in any way. Doctor Mudd was freed, but people never forgave（原谅）him and his name passed into American folk speech as something bad and hateful. The Mudd family had also suffered a lot because of the name until not long ago.

73. The best title for this passage is _________.

A. Abraham Lincoln, the Great President for the American People

B. Your Name Will Be Mud

C. Social Problems in the U.S. during the 1860s

D. Old Law System of the U.S.

74. From the last paragraph it can be inferred that __________.

A. Doctor Mudd has recently been set free

B. Doctor Mudd?s innocence was declared

C. there will be more expressions with mud

D. the American people hate everyone who kills the president

75. If it had not been for President Andrew Johnson, Doctor Mudd _________.

A. would have spent the rest of his life in prison

B. would have been sentenced to five years? prison life

C. would be a doctor forever

D. would not suffer a lot from the name

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,

Some of us are having problems with our parents, as they often look into our school bags or read our diaries. Some students feel parents don?t respect us and aren?t giving us enough space to do what we like. In my opinion, we don?t have to be bot hered about this. After all, there are times when we are not old enough to make our own decisions and are in need of our parents? help. Meanwhile, we can communicate with our parents, telling them we?re growing up and it?s good for us to develop our own identity. Besides, we need to have our own opinions , thoughts and form our own judgement about things. Sooner or later, I believe , we?ll understand each other.

Thank you.
