第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分80分） 第一节：阅读理解（共35小题；每小题2分，满分70分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从21~55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 It has long been known the ancient Egyptian rulers, or pharaohs, were buried with great ceremony and lavish treasures that were to be used in the other world. Unfortunately, until 1922 no remains of any of the pharaohs or their treasures had ever been found. In that year, however, an archaeologist named Howard Carter and his sponsor, Lord Carnavon, were at last successful. They found the tomb of King Tutankhamen, who was buried 3,200 years ago. King Tut’s tomb was the first fully preserved burial site to be uncovered in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings. The two men found the tomb to contain wonderful treasures. Gold figures and magnificent furniture decorated with gold were found in the myriad of secret rooms and tunnels within the pyramid. The only disappointment for Howard Carter came when he found that King Tut’s body was nothing but dust. Apparently a mistake had been made when the king’s remains were mummified (使成木乃伊). Carter did, however, find 143 pieces of jewelry within the mummy case, mostly made of gold and precious stones. Actually, despite all the publicity about the remarkable finds in his tomb, Tutankhamen’s reign (统治时期) as pharaoh was short and relatively uneventful. He died when he was just 18 years old. There is an interesting story that goes along with King Tut’s tomb. According to legend, a powerful curse was placed in it. This curse was to descend on anyone uncovering Tutankhamen’s burial place. Not very long after the discovery, Lord Carnavon, along with several of the workmen, died suddenly. 1．The subject of this passage is . A．the Valley of the Kings B．the discovery of King Tut’s tomb C．King Tut’s accomplishments D．Howard Carter, archaeologist 2．Which statement is true according to this article? A．Not until King Tut’s tomb was found did people realize that Egyptian pharaohs were buried with great ceremony and lavish treasures. B．The first grand burial site of the ancient Egyptian rulers was built 3,200 years ago. C．Historically, Tutankhamen’s reign was not very much important. D．The writer feels it a pity that Lord Carnavon and several of the workmen died because of the curse. 3．It seems clear that King Tut . A．was a great military leader B．thought a great deal of himself C．was afraid of dying D．was killed by his enemies 4．If you have a myriad of something, you have . A．many B．some C．few D．several 5．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．King Tut’s Tomb B．The Egyptian Tombs and Treasures C．King Tut’s body D．The First Pharaoh’s Treasures

One of the traditions which is now a necessary part of Christmas is that of Father Christmas, or Santa Claus. According to the modern legend, he is a magical figure who visits all the children of the world during the night before Christmas Day, leaving presents which they find the next morning. He flies through the night sky in a sledge pulled by reindeer, and enters houses by climbing down chimneys. This strange legend is based on the life of a man called Nicholas, but in fact we know very little about him. Historians think he was a Christian bishop(主教) in Turkey in about 285－350 A. D. One of the stories about him is that he helped three poor girls. No one would marry them because they were so poor. To provide them with money for their weddings, Nicholas secretly dropped some gold coins down the chimney of their house. After Nicholas died, he was made a saint(圣人) by the church. (The name Santa Claus thus comes from St Nicholas.) His feast day was celebrated in December, and parents started giving their children secret presents from St Nicholas. Over the years, this custom became part of our Christmas traditions. Recently, a psychologist has claimed that Father Christmas is “the perfect fantasy” for children. According to Professor Anthony Clare, children love the character of Father Christmas because he is like an ideal father: he loves children and gives them presents, but he never criticizes them, is never angry, and children do not even need to thank him for the presents. Other writers, however, point out that Father Christmas can be a frightening character to some children. Jane Bidder says that some children are terrified of this fat, bearded old man. It can certainly confuse many children. As parents, we warn our children to be careful of strangers and never to let them into the house, and yet we tell children that a strange man will come into their bedroom at night! Some children can become very worried about this idea and fear that he is a kind of burglar. Most children, however, understand from their parents and from the media that Father Christmas is basically a benign character, and look forward to his annual visit with joy and excitement. 46. The main point of the first paragraph is that ________. A. Father Christmas is an important part of Christmas B. the tradition of Father Christmas is a modern idea C. Father Christmas is a magical figure who can fly D. the legends about Father Christmas are not true 47. The writer mentions details such as Father Christmas’s sledge, the reindeer and the way he climbs down chimneys because he/she ____________. A. wants to make it clear that these things are impossible B. is describing the history of St Nicholas C. wants everyone to believe that Father Christmas is real D. is explaining the modern legend of Father Christmas 48. Why does the writer mention the story about St Nicholas helping three poor girls? A. It shows us that historians know very little about him. B. This story explains why parents give secret presents to children. C. It supports the writer’s main point that Father Christmas is based on an untrue story. D. This story explains why we celebrate Christmas in December. 49. In the last paragraph, the word “benign”means _________. A. religious B. friendly C. frightening D. unreal 50. The best title for this passage would be __________. A. Is Father Christmas Dangerous? B. The True History of St Nicholas C. The Legend of Santa Claus D. The Traditions of Christmas

第二节:读写任务 请根据以下任务说明和写作要求,写一篇幅150词左右的英文短文。 Teenagers’ secrets should be kept to themselves and no one else ,their parents included, has the right to stick their nose into their private life. As we know, teenagers are going through a special period of development both physically and psychologically. They are curious about and puzzled by the unexpected changes in their body and mind. What’s more, exposed to a world of adults, it is only too natural for them to begin imitating (模仿) adults’ behaviors in secret. Boys begin to smoke and girls begin to spend time doing their hair. Some even begin to date with a girlfriend or boyfriend without their parents’ knowledge. They are doing al this in secret because they are still unsure whether it is right to do so and afraid that ,if found out by their parent, they will get misunderstood and even punished. And in fact, in many cases, the parents can not deal with the matter well and hurt their children’s feelings badly, making children no longer willing to communicate with their parents. When this happens, it hurts terribly the whole family feeling. So it seems right that teenagers should keep their secrets to themselves and their parents should allow their children that right.
