Ⅳ. 阅读理解(共20题;每小题2分,满分40分) 第一节阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给A, B, C和 D项中,选出最佳选项。 In an age when technology moves faster than most can keep up with, a small group of people still remain in the time of old-fashioned letters. Frankly speaking, I was once certain that traditional letters could never be replaced by other means of communication. But a story about online communication changed my mind. An old man, who suffered a lot from Parkinson's disease, was not able to talk clearly and could hardly write his name. Living totally alone, he managed to keep in touch with nearly all the members of his family. How did he achieve this? He clicked out words on his computer keyboard. I, therefore, managed to get an e-mail box as soon as the opportunity came. My life changed. E-mail, and all online communication, is something truly different. It has capabilities that few other products can match. E-mail is convenient. It takes less time with its fast speed and 24-hour connection. The slow postal service is no match. If you wouldn't want to have a face-to-face talk with your manager, you might talk with him through e-mail even if you are in the same office. Naming all the good things about online communication is not easy. But wait. E-mail can be inconvenient. It can waste time and energy. Just think what may happen when you take a short vacation and return to find your e-mail box filled with 200 unread messages. You could clearly spend half a day clearing junk ads. Then, online communication will keep us staying at our computer while it connects us to distant strangers. Once we throw ourselves into the machine, we may forget the human touches we once held so dear. I'm sure there's and always will be a place for the old-fashioned letter, phone call, and face-to-face meeting even in the world of modem communication. As I listen to the sound of the modem, I was excited at stepping out to the outside world but, at the same time, I sensed a loss of control over something valuable in my personal life. 41. What caused the writer to become interested in e-mail and online communication? A. The sound of the modem. B. His own illness. C. The changing of his life. D. A sick old man's experience. 42. What is the most probable meaning of the underlined word "junk" in Paragraph 7? A. Old and useless. B. New and useful. C. Short but valuable. D. Long but clear. 43. What does the writer think of online communication? A. It should replace old-fashioned letters completely. B. It is perfectly and always does good to you. C. It is extremely useful and convenient, but it may be inconvenient or even harmful. D. It does more harm than good. 44. How did the sick old man keep in touch with his family members? A. With the help of his computer. B. By writing letters with his pen. C. By making telephones calls. D. By visiting them regularly. 45. According to the writer, traditional means of communication will never disappear because . A. they are convenient and popular though they are slow B. they help to keep the friendly relationship between people C. most people cannot keep up with the development of technology D. modem means of communication does too much harm

第二节 信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 阅读以下应用文及相关信息,并按要求匹配信息。 以下是有关吸烟问题的观点:
E. However, smokers may feel a certain amount of pressure. On the one hand, they might feel guilty about the amount of money they spend on cigarettes each month, which could have been put to much better use, but on the other hand, they may also feel non-smokers should be more tolerant of them. F. Smoking can provide constant consolation. When people feel worried or nervous, they just get a cigarette and everything seems to get right After a day's hard work, what they want to do most is smoking. It can be even better than drinking a cup of coffee. 以下是个人对吸烟的认识,请匹配个人的认识与相应的观点。 56.Christopher: As a matter of fact, smokers are under a great deal of pressure, not only because they spend so much money on cigarettes but also because they don' t think people around them are tolerant enough of them. 57.Amanda: If you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial(支气管的) troubles, heart disease and lung cancer, you are certainly deceiving yourself. 58.Harrison: Smoking brings some psychological benefits. Most smokers feel it's enjoyable and that it can relieve daily stress. So why must we ban it and take away a lot of people' s pleasure? 59.Brandon: Forbidden fruits always taste sweetest. That is to say, the stricter the laws against smoking are, the more people want to smoke. What worries me is that more young people are beginning to smoke. 60.Douglas: If there were some ways to stop a smoker from affecting others, I wouldn't object to smoking! Secondhand smoke does great harm to non-smokers, especially to children, who are much more sensitive than adults.

第二节:读写任务(共1小题,满分15分) 阅读下面的短文,然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。 A 71-year-old man, surnamed Wang, in Northwest China Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous (adj. 自治的) Region who won a lottery jackpot(彩票奖金) of 5 million yuan has donated all of the money to charity. On November 21 when Wang arrived at the lottery complex in Urumqi to receive his prize, he donated the first batch of 500,000 yuan to a charity project. It aims to finance schooling of students in poverty. “ I donated the money because I want to help others and I am very happy to do something for our society, ” he said. “Too much money means nothing to me. But this money will be very helpful for those in need.” The old man was a retired worker with the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps in Changji. His pension was only 600 yuan per month, but he said the income from his pension was enough for him. Wang came to Xinjiang in 1956 from North China’s Henan Province. He had been engaged in farming before retirement. His wife has passed away. Wang revealed he did not tell his only daughter, who lived outside Changji, he had won the prize. “ My daughter lives in a good condition,” he said. “ I will not leave a single penny to her. Those people that urgently need help deserve the prize.” Although his pension was merely 600 yuan per month, Wang claimed he never said no to others who wanted to borrow money from him if he could afford it. He began to buy welfare lottery tickets in 2003 when he learned that lottery jackpot would help those in need. 【写作内容】 1 请用大约30个字,转述上文中老人所说的话; 2根据上面的短文,谈谈你的感想,内容包括如下内容,该部分大约120字: 1)对老人及其言行的评价; 2)任何人都需要钱,其实老人的生活并不富裕,他完全可以把钱花在自己需要 的地方; 3)假如你是老人的孙子,谈谈你如何看待老人的决定。 【写作要求】 可以使用实例或论述方法支持你的观点,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不能抄袭阅读材料中的句子。题目自拟。
