Reading Comprehension Section A(15%)A person may have an idea about himself that will prevent him from doing good work. He may have the belief that he is not capable of it.
25、 A child may think he is stupid because he doesnt understand how to make the 46 of his mental abilities. Older people may be mistaken that they are incapable of learning things new because of their 47 .A person who knows that he is capable will not make a real 48 because he feels that it would be us
26、eless. He wont go at a job with the confidence necessary for success, and he wont work his hardest way, 49 he may think he is doing so. He is 50 likely to fail, and the failure will 51 his belief in his inability.Alfred Alder, a famous doctor, had an experience like this. When he was a small boy, he
27、 had a poor 52 in maths. His teacher told his parents he had no ability in maths in order that they would not 53 too much of him. In his way, they two developed the idea. He accepted 54 mistaken thinking of his ability, feeling that it was useless 55 and was very poor at maths, just as they expected
28、.One day he worked at a problem which none of the other students had been able to solve. Alder 56 in solving the problem. This gave him confidence. He now worked with interest, 57 and purpose, and he soon became especially good at maths. He not only 58 that he could learn maths well, but luckily he

But now as grown-ups, some adults find the
32、y cannot leave childhood behind. They become kidults (kid+adult). Being a kidult has become a lifestyle-choice among young people across Asia. Some kidults collect toys they once played with. Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Snoopy have many adult fans around the world. It is not unusual to see a 20-somet
33、hing woman with a big, Garfield-shaped cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory. Other kidults still enjoy childrens stories and fairy tales. For example, Bloomsbury even published the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. That way, no one else on the subway will know that an a
34、dult is actually reading a childrens book! Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure, child-like emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society, said Lee Sojung, professor of Foreign Studies at Hankuk University. He added that kidult culture
35、 may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. It could give children and their parents books, movies, and cartoon shows to enjoy together. He may be right. Tim Greenhalgh, a professor, explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They cling to(舍不得放弃) childhood because life in a busy a
36、nd stressful city frightens them. Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood. “ So, they can escape from increasingly complex and stressful lives that are hard to deal with.” Greenhalgh said.61.We can know from the passage that kidults are _.A. childre
37、n who cant wait to grow up.B. Grown-ups who hold on to child- like emotionC. people who enjoy playing sports.D. young people who pretended to be grown-ups when young.62. According to the passage, kidults would like to do the following except _.A. buy Hello Kitty mobile phone accessories.B. read a ch
38、ildrens book on the subway.C. work in a busy and stressful city.D. Collect toys they once played with.63. In the opinion of the professor in a Korean University, kidults are _.A. immature and weak.B. necessary to our society.C. bad to the development of society.D. getting more and more.64. The main
39、cause of the kidult culture is that _.A. some companies are taking advantage of it.B. modern life is stressful and hard.C. some people like to stay young and energetic.D. some people wish to fill the generation gap.(B)Look at this mail-order advertisement:SUNSHINE COMPANYProducts for a Safe Environm

44、she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, “Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story”, shown in late April. Liz Murray, a 22-
45、year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was
46、just 15 years old. The effect of that loss became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it. Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was
47、 homeless. At night, she lived on the streets.“What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other way of being. I had only experienced a small part of the society,”she wrote in her book Breaking Night. She admitted that she used envy to dri
48、ve herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe living environment, to encourage herself that “next to nothing could hold me down”. She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top u
49、niversity a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. “I love my parents so much. They are drug addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time.” Liz wants moviegoers to come away with the idea that changing your life is “as simpl
50、e as making a decision”.69. In which order did the following things happen to Liz?a. Her mother died of AIDS.b. She worked at a petrol station.c. She got admitted into Harvard.d. The movie about her life was put on.e. She had trouble finding a place to sleep.Ab, a, e, c, d Ba, b, c, e, d C e, d, b,
51、a, cDb, e, a, d, c70. The main idea of the passage is _.Ahow Liz managed to enter Harvard UniversityBthe hard time Liz had in her childhoodCwhy Liz loved her parents so muchDhow Liz struggled to change her life71. What decision did Liz make that changed her life? A. To write Breaking Night B. To go
52、to the best university. C. To live through the difficult time. D. To live a different life from her parents.72. When she wrote “What drove me to live on.I had only experienced a small part of the society”, she meant that _.Ashe had little experience of social lifeBshe could hardly understand the soc
53、ietyCshe would do something for her own lifeDshe needed to travel more around the worldSection c(8%)Directions: Read the passage carefully and then answer the questions or complete the statements in no more than ten words.A rain forest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall sp
54、reading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dripping below 16. Rain forests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate. Without the forest cover, these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere (大气), wa
55、rming the rest of the world. Losing the rain forests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns, potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.In the past hundred years, humans have begun destroying rain forests in search of three major resources: land for crops, wood for paper
56、 and other products, land for raising farm animals. This action affects the environment as a whole. For example, a lot of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳）in the air comes from burning the rain forests. People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting down trees but we will suffer much more t
57、han we will benefit. There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, when people cut down trees, generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly, cutting large sections of rain forests may provide a good supply of wood right now, but in the long run it actually reduces the worlds wood
58、 supply.Rain forests are often called the worlds drug store. More than 25 percent of the medicines we use today come from plants in rain forests. However, fewer than 1 percent of rain forest plants have been examined for their medical value. It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseas
59、es lies somewhere in the worlds shrinking rain forests. 73.Why can rain forests help to adjust the climate?74.What may be directly influenced according to the first paragraph if we lose the rain forests?75.The underlined word this in the third paragraph refers to _.76.Rain forests are often called t
