第二部分 阅读理解(共25小题。第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题1分；满分45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。 When students think of learning a foreign language, the first thought is of books, exercises, and audio cassettes．Those are important to learning but sometimes a little bit boring．Therefore, it is time for us to spice things up a bit. Things like a cellphone can keep your interest level high．It’s a perfect study material．You have it with you day after day, you are familiar with how it works and you can use it to practice whenever you have time．You don’t need to have your books by your side or stay in your room to listen to tapes. Let’s take a look at how to add your cellphone to your study tools. Set up your cellphone to use the language you want to study．Go to the menu, find settings, locate language and change it to English or Spanish, which benefits your language learning. Look at the buttons and connect those items with the new vocabulary．This enables you to master simple words and phrases with little effort．For example, each time you open up your cellphone you’ll see “messages”, “games” and “calls made”．These words begin to take root if you see them again and again. When you have time, take out your cellphone and start hitting buttons．You’ll be surprised at all the vocabulary you can learn by playing with the different menu items．Some things you’ll recognize immediately and others you can guess just by where you find them. It can keep your learning fresh and interesting．And that’s important because boredom is a big problem with language learners．You need variety and a cellphone is one way to get it. 1．The underlined part “spice things up” in the first paragraph means “______”. A．make things interesting B．make things realistic C．make things helpful D．make things obvious 2．Which of the following is NOT an advantage of using a cellphone as a study material? A．We can study with it at any moment. B．It keeps our learning interest high. C．We can use it to practice freely. D．It offers the chance to practice learning. 3．By playing with a cellphone, you can ______. A．learn the words in the menu B．remember the messages sent by others C．improve the techniques of playing games D．become familiar with different kinds of languages 4．Why did the author write the passage?

D．To explain how to use cellphones to learn language.

Jenny Bowen, an American living in Beijing, was selected as the only American to carry the 2008 Beijing Olympic torch on Chinese soil．She and seven other non-Chinese winners had been chosen from 262 applicants from 47 countries in a contest organized by Chinese computer maker Lenovo Group and the official English-language newspaper, China Daily．When Bowen ran with the Olympic torch, she was not only representing the United States, but also representing thousands of Chinese orphans (孤儿).

In many societies, there is often greater acceptance of light skin than dark skin．Light skin may be seen as a mark of beauty, intelligence and success．These beliefs can lead to social pressure even within the same racial or ethnic group, if some members are darker skinned than others． The result is that skin lightening has become a common activity across Africa, Asia and other areas of the world．More and more people with dark skin are using skin-lightening products, even if they may face health risks. They believe that having whiter skin will improve their lives．Many people think they will have a better chance of getting a job or marrying into a better family．Or they want to look like what their society generally considers beautiful. Some beauty care products and soaps contain chemicals that make skin lighter．This process is also called bleaching．But some of the chemicals are extremely dangerous．One of the chemicals has been linked to kidney (肾) damage and some kinds of cancer．It also causes low birth weight in babies when mothers use it during pregnancy． At first, bleaching products make the skin color lighter．But after long-term use they can cause problems．They can even make some skin darker．The chemicals in the products block and break down the natural process that gives color to skin．The skin loses its natural barrier to protect against sunlight．Then the skin can become thick and discolored．Usually the person will use more of the product in an effort to correct the problem, but this only makes it worse. Fatimata Ly treats skin conditions in the Senegalese capital，Dakar．Doctor Ly says skin bleaching has become a problem throughout Senegal．She says the chemicals are now more dangerous because they are stronger．Some cases have resulted in blackened fingernails, infections and permanent skin damage． And these are not the only risks．Experts say some people who change their skin color suffer emotional damage．They feel regret and sadness．They feel that instead of risking their health, they should have learned to love and accept their skin color as it was． 1．Which of the following words can replace the underlined word “bleaching”? A．whitening B．changing C．lighting D．pleasing 2．Why has the skin lightening become a common activity all over the world? A．There are many products that can make the dark skin light. B．Many people with dark skin have no confidence. C．Relatively speaking, light skin has more advantages over dark skin. D．People with dark skin are forced by the pressure of their families. 3．According to the text the following are the risks using the bleaching products EXCEPT______. A．blackened fingernails B．permanent skin damage C．emotional damage D．a waste of time and money 4．From the text we can conclude the writer’s attitude toward using the bleaching products is probably ___________． A．supportive B．positive C．doubtful D．negative

It’s been claimed that playing a musical instrument makes you smarter． New research suggests that regularly playing a musical instrument changes the shape and power of the brain, and may be used in therapy (疗法) to improve cognitive (认知) skills． Experts say there is growing evidence that musicians have brains that are structurally and functionally different from those of non-musicians, especially in the areas of the brain used in processing (处理信息) The parts of the brain that control motor skills, the storage of audio information, hearing and memory become larger and more active when a person learns how to play an instrument and can apparently improve the alertness (警觉) and planning． Lutz Jancke, a psychologist at the University of Zurich, said, “Leaning to play a musical instrument has great benefits and can increase IQ by seven points in both children and adults．We found that even people over the age of 65, after four or five months of playing an instrument for an hour a week, had strong changes in the brain.” The parts of the brain that control hearing and memory, and the part that controls the hands, among others, all become more active. “Of course music isn’t the only answer, but I do believe that it should be used in addition to other things.” Mr．Jancke also said that learning a musical instrument could also make it easier to learn foreign languages and make one more sensitive to understanding the emotions of others．“So not only does this make it easier to pick up other languages and have a better memory of one’s own, we have also seen musicians are able to pick out exactly what others are feeling just by the tones of their voices—sympathy, disappointment, that kind of things.” He added, “Several studies indeed show that playing music increases memory and language skills, but more research is needed.” 1．What is the passage mainly about? A．How to use musical instruments. B．How music affects the brain. C．How playing music makes people smarter. D．The development of research into music. 2．Compared with non-musicians, __________. A．musicians are better at foreign languages B．musicians are more active in sports C．musicians have stronger emotions D．musicians’ brains work differently in processing 3．Which of the following is NOT a benefit of playing an instrument? A．It makes it easier for one to pick up foreign languages. B．It allows one to show his feelings more exactly to others． C．It gives one a better memory in one’s own language． D．it makes one understand others’ feelings better． 4．From Luz Jancke we lean that _________． A．playing an instrument benefits children more than adults B．playing an instrument has no benefits for people over 65 C．some studies show playing music can increase memory D．he will do more research into brain development and music
