三.阅读理解(40分) Americans have contributed to many art forms, but jazz, a type of music, is the only art form that was created in the United States. Jazz was created by black Americans. Many blacks were brought from Africa to America as slaves. The black slaves sang and played the music of their homeland. Jazz is a mixture of many different kinds of music. It is a combination (合并) of the music of west Africa, the work songs the slaves sang, and religious music. Improvisation(即兴创作)is an important jazz. This means that the musicians make the music up as they go along, or create the music on the spot. This is why a jazz song might sound a little different each time it is played. Jazz bands formed in the late nineteenth century. They played in bars and clubs in many towns and cities of the South, especially in New Orleans. New Orleans is an imitational seaport, and people from all over the world come to New Orleans to hear jazz. Jazz became more and more popular.

We have two daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four. Last Sunday evening, we invited some people home for dinner. I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join Mommy in answering the door when the bell rang. Mommy would introduce them to the guests, and then they would take the guests’ coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom. The guests arrived. I introduced my two daughters to each of them. The adults were nice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids. Each of the guests made a particular fuss over (对…关爱倍至)Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smiles. They said she was an unusual girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age. I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big “to do” over the younger one because she’s the one who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of intentions (意图). But we seldom think of how it might affect (影响) the other child. I was a little worried that Kristen would feel she was ignored. I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes. I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying. I said, “What are you doing, my dear?” She turned to me with a sad expression and said, “Mommy, why don’t people like me the way they like my sister? Is it because I’m not pretty? Is that why they don’t say nice things about me as much?” I tried to explain to her, kissing her to make her feel better. Now, whenever I visit a friend’s home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first. 1.The underlined expression “make a big ‘to do’ over” (in paragraph 4) means _______. A.show much concern about B.have a special effect on C.list jobs to be done for D.do good things for 2.The guests praised Kelly for carrying coats upstairs for her _______. A.pretty clothes B.lovely smile C. young age D.beautiful hair 3.Kristen felt sad and cried because ______. A.the guests gave her more coats to carry B.the guests praised her sister more than her C.her mother didn’t introduce her to the guests D.she didn’t look as pretty as Kelly 4.We can conclude from the passage that _______.

On some level, I always knew that I wanted to be a doctor-at least from the age of eight or ten years old, anyway. Although my father wasn’t a doctor, he made his own brand of “house calls”. I followed him as he brought a plate of my mother’s home cooking to an elderly man named Frank on all major holidays and when Frank was sick. As far as I know, their only connection was that Frank was an occasional customer at Dad’s small gas station. Frank’s home was a two-room house on the rough side of town with an old front porch (门廊) where you could fall if you weren’t careful. Frank had no relatives and as far as I could tell, no other visitors either. Through his attitude and by caring, my father was teaching me to be a doctor, although neither of us knew it at the time. When I was 13, my father developed lung cancer. He brought home a diagram the doctor had drawn showing where his cancer was and told me that he was going to die. He asked me to take care of my mother when he was gone. I was an only child. He said he loved me on the night when he died. When you’re 13 and your father dies, you have some choices to make. You can use the situation as an excuse for letting your actions and graded go down, or you can honor his memory and try to do something positive with yourself. I focused my energy on my schoolwork and my goal of becoming a doctor. 1. What’s the father’s “own brand of ‘house calls’”? A. his treatment for frank’s serious illness. B. his care for Frank. C. his attitude towards the author. D. his wish that his kid would be a doctor. 2. The author began to want to be a doctor when_________ A. father helped frank regularly B. Father developed lung cancer C. father asked him/her to take care of Mother D. father died 3. what was the influence of Father’s death on the author? A. The author began to think seriously about his/her career. B. The author was too sorrowful to carry through his /her study. C. The author used the situation as an excuse for quitting school. D. The author made great effort at his/her goal of becoming a doctor. 4. The best title for the text would be_________. A. What Made Father Respectable B. What Led Me to Be a Doctor C. How to Help Strangers D. How to Deal with Death
