Ⅲ 阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt＇s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning. I do not remember myself crying for that reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times. ” My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives. From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy. 66. How did the author get to know America? A. From her relatives B. From her mother C. From books and pictures D. From radio programs 67. Upon leaving for America the author felt . A. confused B. excited C. worried D. disappointed 68. For the first two years in New York, the author . A. often lost her way B. did not think about her future C. studied in three different schools D. got on well with her stepfather 69. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4? A. She worked as a translator B. She attended a lot of job interviews C. She paid telephone bills for her family D. She helped her family with her English 70. The author believes that . A. her future will be free from troubles B. it is difficult to learn to become patient C. there are more good things than bad things D. good things will happen if one keeps trying

Seeing a volcano erupt is a wonderful experience, and you can really feel the beat by climbing to the summit(山顶) of Pacaya for a close-up view. There are guided tours every day up this highly active volcano from Antigua, giving travelers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most powerful. Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua, a beautiful city with many colorful houses along its old streets that are turned into art-works during its Holy Week festival. No matter when you come to Antigua, you won’t miss the Pacaya-tour companies. But climbing Pacaya is no easy job: it is 2560 metres high, and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly one-step-forward and two-step-back movements. As you climb, you hear the dull sounds of eruptions high above steaming. Hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you are near the active summit; the McKenney Cone(火山锥). Many tours are timed so when you arrive at the cone of the volcano there is plenty of time for sunset and the full contrast between the erupting red lava and the darkening sky. On a good day the view from the summit is extremely exciting. The active mouth boils, sending red lava over its sides, and once in a while shoots hot streams up to 100 metres into the air. There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone. As evening turns deeper into the night, the burning lava quietly falls down the side of the volcano. For you, too, it is time to get down . 71. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To attract tourists to Pacaya. B. To describe the beauty of Pacaya. C. To introduce guided tours to Pacaya. D. To explain the power of nature at Pacaya. 72. Antigua is a city . A. where people can enjoy cultural festivals B. where the daring Pacaya tour starts C. that gives a close-up view of Paraya D. that is famous for its tour companies 73. Climbing to the McKenney Cone, people will . A. walk directly to the active summit B. hear the continuous loud screams from above C. make greater efforts than to other summits D. see a path lined with remains of earlier eruptions 74. Many tours are timed for people to . A. get down the mountain in time when night falls B. avoid the smell from the upwind direction of the cone C. enjoy the fantastic eruption against the darkening sky D. appreciate the scenery of the 2560-metre-high mountain 75. The short passage probably comes from___________. A.a travel journal B.a popular science magazine C. A novel D. an advertisement

Specialists say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists. In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more. There are some obvious factors（因素）in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems—the telephones, post office, or transportation—may be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be big problems. The language may be difficult. Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their own community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without any identity. They have to build a new self-image. Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of disorientation（迷失方向）. This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience — these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock. 76. When people move to a new country, they _______. A. will get used to their new surroundings with difficulty B. have well prepared for the new surroundings C. will get used to the culture of the country quickly D. will never be familiar with the culture of the country 77. According to the passage, factors that give rise to culture shock include all of the following except __________. A. language communication B. weather conditions and customs C. public service systems D. homesickness 78. According to the passage, the more successful you are at home, _______. A. the fewer difficulties you may have abroad B. the more difficulties you may have abroad C. the more money you will earn abroad D. the less homesick you may feel abroad 79. When people are homesick, they tend to ______. A. find some people to talk to B. go outside to have a walk C. visit their friends far away D. stay indoors all the time 80. The writer tells us that the best way to overcome culture shock is to ______. A. protect ourselves from unfamiliar environment B. develop a strange sense of self-protection C. get familiar with new culture D. return to our own country

第三节：读写概括（5分） 阅读下面的信件，用约30词概括李明的烦恼： Dear Mr Help: I’m writing for some advice on my studies. As you know, football is a very popular sport in the world and I am appealing to it and I’ve fallen in love with it, which makes me feel so crazy. I have spent lots of time doing things related to it, like watching football matches, reading newspapers and magazines, and searching the Web for more information about football. As a result, it has certainly disturbed my normal study. Though I know to be a football fan is my hobby and my aim in school is to learn more knowledge, I can’t concentrate on my lessons and gradually I am tired of them. I am still a Senior Two middle school student, and I’ll have my own business even when I grow up, so I am not likely to do a job in the field of football. But now I can’t stop myself from getting involved further with football. So I feel very depressed and want to know how to deal with the contradiction between my studies and hobbies. Sincerely yours, Li Ming _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
