第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、Ｂ、Ｃ和Ｄ）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分） Most American colleges
and universities take a spring break. Students might go home to their families
-- or spend a week partying on a warm beach with no parents around. That is the
popular image, at least. In the United States, the lawful age to drink alcohol is twenty-one -- one of the highest in the world. Americans debate whether it should be lowered, or whether young drinkers would only drink more. In parts of Europe, the lawful drinking age for beer, and sometimes hard liquor, is sixteen. Yet France may raise the age limit for beer and wine sales to eighteen, the same as for hard liquor there. Rules on alcohol differ from college to college in the United States. Many schools require all first-year students to take an alcohol prevention and education program, often given online. Some have a “zero tolerance” policy where alcohol is banned from all buildings. Parents are informed of violations and students may be suspended(停学). At the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, permission is needed to serve alcohol at any event on campus. But alcohol is banned in first-year dorms---where most students are under twenty-one anyway. Susan Davis, a
university lawyer, says campus police and local police report underage drinking
violations(违反)to the committee that decides punishments on a
case by case basis. For example, the committee might suspend or expel(开除)a
student. It might require an alcohol education program. Or it might just give a
warning. Jon Zug is a lawyer in Albemarle County, where the university is located. He says international students would face the same punishment as American citizens for underage drinking in Virginia. That includes a punishment of five hundred dollars or fifty hours of community service. But first law-breakers might be given a chance to complete an alcohol education program instead. Schools have to report unlawful violations by international students to the Department of Homeland Security. International adviser Richard Tanson at the University of Virginia says even minor violations stay on a student’s permanent immigration record. He says international students should know that this can affect them in the future if they try to re-enter the United States. 1. What does the underlined phrase “by case basis” mean? A. Depending on the seriousness of the case itself. B. According to the report of the campus and local police. C. Depending on the judgment of the committee. D. According to the former cases in store. 2. To international students, which of the following may be intolerable once they have drinking violations? A. A punishment of $500 or 50 hours of community service. B. Being given a warning of being suspended or expelled. C. Having the violations kept on their permanent immigration record. D. Receiving an alcohol education program. 3. The passage probably appears in_________. A. an advertisement B. a local newspaper C. a university guide book D. a popular magazine 4. The passage mainly talks about_________. A. alcohol problems on the U.S. campus B. alcohol policy on U.S. campus C. U.S. universities---zero tolerance to alcohol D. the punishment to the university alcohol drinkers

Findings from a new study were presented at a recent meeting of the American Psychosomatic Society. Researchers in the United States studied one hundred thousand women during an eight-year period, beginning in nineteen ninety-four. All of the women were fifty years of age or older. The study was part of the Women’s Health Initiative organized by the National Institutes of Health. The women were asked questions that measured their beliefs or ideas about the future. The researchers identified each woman’s personality eight years after gathering the information. The study found that hopeful individuals were fourteen percent less likely than other women to have died from any cause. The hopeful women were also thirty percent less likely to have died from heart disease after the eight years. Hilary Tindle from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine in Pennsylvania was the lead author of the report. She said the study confirmed earlier research that linked optimistic feelings to longer life. The researchers also gathered information about people’s education, financial earnings, physical activity and use of alcohol or cigarettes. Independent of those things, the findings still showed that optimists had less of a chance of dying during the eight-year period. Some women who answered the questions were found to be cynically hostile, or highly untrusting of others. These women were sixteen percent more likely to die than the others. They also were twenty-three percent more likely to die of cancer. The study also found that women who were not optimistic were more likely to smoke and have high blood pressure or diabetes. They were also more likely not to exercise. Professor Tindle says the study did not confirm whether optimism leads to healthier choices, or if it actually affects a person’s physical health. She also says the study does not prove that negative emotions or distrust lead to bad health effects and shorter life. Yet there does appear to be a link that calls for more research. 1. What’s the purpose of carrying out the study? A. To gather information for the National Institutes of Health. B. To find out the relationship between women’s personality and their health. C. To decide who is more likely to enjoy happier life. D. To identify each woman’s personality 8 years after gathering the information. 2. What can be inferred from the passage? A. It’s uncertain whether optimism affects a person’s physical health. B. Negative emotions do cause shorter life. C. The connection between personality and health has been established. D. The more optimistic you are, the longer life you may enjoy. 3. According to the passage, who is more likely to die of cancer? A. A woman who has high blood pressure or diabetes. B. A woman who doesn’t exercise. C. A woman who has poor physical health. D. A woman who always doubts what others say. 4. Which of the following is true? A. American Psychosomatic Society organized the new study. B. Women who were optimistic were less likely to smoke. C. More questions were given than those measuring women’s beliefs or ideas. D. Hopeful women were 16% less likely to die from heart disease.

All things change except barbers, the ways of barbers, and the surroundings of barbers. These never change. What one experiences in a barber’s shop the first time he enters one is what he always experiences in barbers’ shops afterward till the end of his days. I got shaved this morning as usual. A man approached the door from Jones Street as I approached it from Main--a thing that always happens. I hurried up, but it was of no use; he entered the door one little step ahead of me, and I followed in and saw him take the only empty chair, the one headed by the best barber. It always happens so. I sat down, hoping that I might sit in the chair belonging to the better of the remaining two barbers, for he was a bit ahead. I watched the probabilities with strong interest. When I saw that No. 2 was gaining on No. 1, my interest grew to solicitude (孤单). When No. 1 was gradually losing the race, my solicitude rose to anxiety. When No. 1 caught up again, and both were about to finish and say “Next!” first, my very breath stood still with the suspense. But when I saw that he had lost the race by a single instant, I rose angrily and quitted the shop, to keep from falling into the hands of No. 2; for I have none of that firmness that enables a man to look calmly into the eyes of a waiting barber and tell him he will wait for his fellow-barber’s chair. I stayed out fifteen minutes, and then went back, hoping for better luck. Unfortunately, all the chairs were occupied now, and four men sat waiting, silent, and looking bored, as men always do who are waiting their turn in a barber’s shop. I sat down and waited. At last my turn came. A voice said “Next!” and I give in to No. 2, of course. It always happens so. I smiled and said that I was in a hurry, and it affected him as strongly as if he had never heard it. He explored my hair
with his claws and suggested that it needed trimming(修剪).
I said I did not want it trimmed. He explored again and said it was pretty long
for the present style. I said I had had it cut only a week before. He stopped
for a moment, and then asked “who cut it?” I stared at him from the mirror and
replied “You did!” Then a dog-fight attracted his attention, and he ran to the window
and stayed and watched it… 1. The author left the barber’s shop mainly because_________. A. he would like to wait for “No. 1” outside B. he would rather be served by the best barber C. he lacked the courage to tell “No. 2” his intention D. he was angry at the slow speed of “No. 1” 2. What is the change of the author’s attitude from the moment he went into the barber’s to the moment he left it? A. Disappointed---Anxious---Hopeful---Angry. B. Disappointed --Hopeful---Anxious---Angry. C. Hopeful--- Sad --- Anxious ---Angry. D. Hopeful--- Anxious --- Angry --- Sad. 3. The author chose “No. 2” in the end, because________. A. he had no choice B. he was in a hurry C. “No. 1” avoided him on purpose D. he is always one step behind others 4. The underlined word “suspense” in the 2nd paragraph probably means ________. A. loneliness B. possibility C. anxiety D. hope 5. What is likely to happen next? A. The author lost his temper. B. “No. 2” ran out of his patience. C. The author was well-served by “No. 2”. D. The author was treated the same way as usual.

In our life, we face situations where we are either asked to choose between trust and disbelief. Many of us would say we have to choose trust over disbelief. Actually we are given intellectual(智力的) power to choose what we want, and what we choose certainly need not be the one that sounds pleasing. That is, we can choose both trust and disbelief, but we have to know when to choose between these two. We should all realize that we are living in a world which is unfortunately mixed with people of various types. We have been given the power of judging who we are working with and who we are partnering with. We cannot give an excuse for believing a scheming(诡计多端的)person, just because he looked or sounded nice, unless we consider ourselves mentally unskillful. This world was there before us and it does not owe us a single thing. We are asked to take care of ourselves and our belongings. Trust, too, has to be saved for the deserving(值得的) people. When we give trust universally to all, we end up troubled by the undeserving common cheat. People say trust is life. True! But only wisely exercised trust is life. When we start a conversation with someone, the first things that we usually notice would be their dress, behavior, style and their language. What sometimes we all forget to look at is the person’s intention. Now how to look at a person’s intention is a lesson everybody has to learn for themselves in their own way -- there is no single standard for it. But it is certainly possible to discover the purpose if we seek a little bit more. Certainly a false offer of friendship or guidance cannot stand undiscovered for long; we are therefore called to exercise disbelief over trust at least momentarily till we find out that we certainly are in agreement with a mutual(相互的)good-willed person. The world teaches you lots of lessons and if we are willing, we can learn all that we want. 1. In the first paragraph, the author ________. A. concentrates on the reason why we make different choices B. focuses on how to choose between trust and disbelief C. suggests that trust should be wisely exercised D. implies that people are forced to make the choice 2. The underlined sentence means __________. A. trust and disbelief go hand in hand with each other. B. disbelief is necessary if you aren’t wise C. trust is established if two people know each other D. doubt may serve as the precondition for trust 3. We can infer from the passage that _________. A. people who we are working with are in fact those who we are partnering with B. the first thing we notice tends to mislead our judgment C. the mentally healthy people will not judge a person by his looks D. the standards of looking at a person’s intention are various 4. Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage? A. Trust or Disbelief? B. Trust Is Life. C. Trust over Disbelief? D. When to Choose between Trust and Disbelief?
