Ⅲ. 阅读理解 (共两节,满分40分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出一个最佳答案。 Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed. When a person does a certain thing again, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly, then a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of. It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits. Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them. There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help. Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on. Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on. These are all easily formed habits. Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided. We should keep away from all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others. 36. ________ are formed little by little. A. Good habits B. Bad habits C. Both good habits and bad habits D. Either good habits or bad habits 37. Generally speaking, it's difficult for one___and easy for them____which should be avoided. A. to form bad habits; to form good habits B. to form good habits; to form bad habits C. to form such habits as will be good; to get rid of bad habits D. to get rid of bad habits; to form good habits 38. Why should we pay much attention to the formation of habits? A. Because habits are of great help to every one of us. B. Because a man can never get rid of a habit. C. Because it's hard and sometimes even impossible to throw away bad habits. D. Because we are forced to do them again and again . 39. According to the passage, early rising ________. A. has something to do with success B. is an easily formed habit C. is such a habit as should have been avoided D. is such a habit as will be kept

There are many stereotypes( 定型 ) about the character of people in various parts of the United States. In the Northeast and Midwest, people are said to be closed and private. In the South and West, however, they are often thought of as being more open and hospitable(好客的) . Ask someone from St. Louis where the nearest sandwich shop is, and he or she will politely give you directions. A New Yorker might eye you at first and after deciding it is safe to talk to you, might give you a rather unexpected explanation. A person from Georgia might be very kind about directing you and even suggest some different places to eat. A Texan just might take you to the place and treat you to lunch. American stereotypes are abundant. New Englanders are often thought of as being friendly and helpful. Southerners are known for their hospitality and warmth. People from the western part of the United States are often considered very outgoing. These differences in character can be traced to different factors such as climate, living conditions, and historical development. When traveling from place to place, Americans themselves are often surprised at the differing degrees of friendliness in the United States. 43. The main idea of the passage is _____________. A. even Americans are surprised at the differences among themselves B. there are many differences in character in different parts of the USA.

Researchers are placing robotic dogs(机器狗)in the homes of lonely old people to determine whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck, an expert in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the animal-assisted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old people’s depression, physical activity, and life satisfaction. “No one will argue that an older person is better off being more active, challenged, or stimulated(刺激),”Edwards points out. “The problem is how we promote(使……成为现实)that, especially for those without friends or help. A robotic dog could be a solution.” In the study, the robot, called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live alone. Before placing AIBO in the home, researchers will collect baseline data for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activity before and after AIBO. Then, the researchers will review the data to determine if it has inspired any changes in the life of its owner. “I talk to him all the time, and he responds to my voice,” says a seventy-year-old lady, “When I’m watching TV, he’ll stay in my arms until he wants down. He has a mind of his own.” The AIBOs respond to certain orders. The researchers say they have some advantages over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removes exercise and feeding concerns. “At the beginning, it was believed that no one would relate to the robotic dog, because it was metal and not furry.” Beck says. “But it’s amazing how quickly we have given up that belief.” “Hopefully, down the road, these robotic pets could become a more-valuable health helper. They will record their masters’ blood pressure, oxygen levels. Or heart rhythms. AIBOs may even one day have games that can help stimulate older people’s minds.” 47. The purpose of Beck and Edwards’ study is to . A. understand human-animal relationship B. makes lonely old people’s life better C.find the causes of old people’s loneliness D. promote the animal-assisted research 48. In the research, the old people are asked to . note the activities of AIBOs keep AIBOs at home for 12 weeks C. record their feelings and activity D. analyze the collected information 49. What is the advantage of AIBO over live dogs? It is easier to keep at home. B. It can help the disabled people. C. It responds to all the human orders. D. It can watch TV with its owner. 50. The author seems to suggest that the future robotic dogs may . A. cure certain diseases B. keep old people active C.change people’s beliefs D. look more like real gods
