第三节：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2.5分，满分50分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳答案 A couple of years ago, I received a $ 600 insurance dividend (保险股息).Sitting at the kitchen table, my wife and I discussed what we might do with the money. I realized now that the refrigerator overheard our talk. The very next day it went wrong. The repairman told us we needed a new unit. Cost:$600. Not long after that, we got a refund（赔偿金）from the shop, enough to pay for a trip to Mexico. “I’ve something to tell you,” I said to my wife in a low voice. “How about the living-room?” she suggested. I remembered the color TV set was there. “No, not there. Let’s go out.” I showed her the check as we stood on the driveway. We held each other excitedly and hardly noticed the rain. My car was parked within5 meters. I didn’t think anything about it at the time. As I started for the airport the next day, the car began making strange sounds. Changing the engine cost about $ 1, 000. Then I looked through our financial records. I discovered that during the last ten years we spent all our “found money” repairing a hot water heater, a television and a stove. I never mention money in front of our mechanical equipment. But if this article is published and I am paid for, the word processor（文字信息处理机）is going to go for sure. It’ll know. 1. What went wrong first as the writer’s? A. The refrigerator B. The stove C. The TV set D. The engine of the car 2. What has been repaired and still remains all right? A. The car B. The color TV set C. The stove D. The hot water heater 3. Which statement is wrong according to the passage? A.There are many pieces of modern equipment in the writer’s home B.The writer often discusses with his wife on how to spend their money. C.The writer has gone into a lot of trouble to repair his things D.The writer’s refrigerator can overhear him

Although man has known about asbestos for many hundreds of years, it was not until 160 years ago that it was mined for the first time on the North American continent. H. W. Johns, owner of a New York City Supply Shop for roofers, was responsible for （对……负责）the opening of that first mine. Mr. Johns was given a piece of asbestos which had been found in Italy. He experimented with the material and then showed its surprising powers to his customers. After putting a pair of asbestos gloves, which looked much like ordinary work gloves, he took red-hot coals from the fireplace and played with them in his hands. How astonished the customers were to discover that he was not burned at all. You can well imagine that he had increasing business in asbestos roofing materials. However, because it was very expensive to transport(carry) them from Italy to the United States, Mr. Johns sent out a young scientist to seek a source nearer home. This young man found great vein（岩脉） in the province of Quebec in Canada. Ever since 1881, Quebec has led the world in the production of this unusual mineral, which is made up of magnesium, silicon, iron, and oxygen. When it is mined, the asbestos is heavy, just as you would expect a mineral to be. When it is separated, a strange thing happens: the rock breaks down into fine, soapy fibers（滑腻的纤维）。 Scientists do not know why the rock can be separated easily into threads（线）,but they have found thousands of uses for this fireproof material, often called the “cloth of stone”. 1. The title that best expresses the main idea of the passage is _____. A. Asbestos mined in Canada B. Fireproof matter C. A “wonder” mineral D. A new roofing material 2. Johns proved his ability （能力）as a salesman by_____. going into the roofing business carrying asbestos from Italy sending a trained scientist showing the use of asbestos gloves 3. Which is the most important character of asbestos that the author wants to show us? A. It is like thread B. It feels soapy C. It bums easily D. It is unusually heavy 4. The author’s main purpose in writing this passage is to______. show the need for more scientists compare asbestos with other minerals increase the sales of asbestos present facts about asbestos

For more than six million American children, coming home after school means coming home to an empty house. Some deal with the situation by watching TV. Some may hide. But all of them have something in common. They spend part of each day alone. They’re called latchkey children. They’re children who look after themselves while their parents work and their bad condition has become a subject of concern（关心）。 Lynette Long was once the principal（校长）of an elementary school. Said, “We had a school rule against wearing jewelry. A lot of the kids had chains around their necks with keys attached（附带）。 I was often telling them to put them inside their shirts. There were so many keys that it never came to my mind what they meant.” Slowly, she learned they were house keys. She and her husband began talking to the children who had them. They learned of the effect working couples and single parents had on their children Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone. One in each three latchkey children the Longs talked to reported being scared（害怕）.Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety. The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. It might be in a shower stall, under a bed, in a closet. The second is TV. They’ll often play it high volume. It’s hard to get statistics（统计数字）on latchkey children, the Longs learned. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone. 1. The main idea about “latchkey” children is that they ______. are growing in numbers are also found in middle-class neighborhoods watch too much TV during the day suffer problems from being left alone 2. Which sentence in the second paragraph is the topic sentence? We had a school rule against wearing jewelry. A lot of kids had chains around their necks. I was often telling them to put them inside their shirts. She learned they were house keys. 3. The main feeling these children have when they are at home by themselves is ______. A. tiredness B. freedom C. loneliness D. fear 4. The word “nightmare” in the third paragraph probably means______. A. night suit B. night habit C. terrible dream at night D. staying up at night 5. We may draw a conclusion that_______. latchkey children enjoy having such a large amount of time alone latchkey children try to hide their feeling latchkey children often watch TV with their parents it’s difficult to find out how many latchkey children there are
