20、小题2分，共50分）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。AYou hear the comment all the time: the U.S. economy looks good by figures, but it doesnt feel good. Why doesnt ever-greater wealth promote ever-greater happiness? It is a question that dates at least to the appearance in 1958 of The Wealthy S
21、ociety by John Kenneth Galbraith, who died recently at 97.The Wealthy Society is a modern classic because it helped describe a new moment in the human condition. For most of history, “hunger, sickness, and cold” threatened nearly everyone, Galbraith wrote. “Poverty (贫穷) was found everywhere in that
22、world. Obviously it is not of ours.” After World War II, the fear of another Great Depression gave way to an economic growth. In the 1930s unemployment had averaged 18.2 percent; in the 1950s it was 4.5 percent.To Galbraith, materialism (物质主义) had gone mad and would cause discontent. Through adverti
23、sing, companies conditioned consumers to buy things they didnt really want or need. Because so much spending was artificial, it wouldbe unsatisfying. Meanwhile, government spending that would make everyone better off was being cut down because people wrongly considered government only as “a necessar
24、y bad.”Its often said that only the rich are getting ahead; everyone else isstanding still or falling behind. Well, there are many undeserving rich overpaid chief managers, for instance. But over any meaningful period, most peoples incomes are increasing. From 1995 to 2004, people feel “squeezed” be
25、cause their rising incomes often dont satisfy their rising wants for bigger homes, more health care, more education, and faster Internet connections.The other great disappointment is that it has not got rid of insecurity. People regard job stability as part of their standard of living. As company un
26、employment increased, that part has gradually become weaker. More workers fear theyve become “the disposable American,” as Louis Uchitelle puts it in his book by the same name.Because so much previous suffering and social conflict resulted from poverty, the arrival of widespread wealth suggested uto
27、pian (乌托邦式的) possibilities. Up to a point, wealth succeeds. There is much less physical suffering than before. People are better off. Unfortunately, wealth also creates new complaints.Advanced societies need economic growth to satisfy the multiplying wants of their citizens. But the search for growt
28、h cause new anxieties and economic conflicts that disturb the social order. Wealth sets free the individual, promising that everyone can choose a unique way to self-accomplishment. But the promise is so unreasonable that it leads to many disappointments and sometimes inspires choices that have anti-
29、social consequences, including family breakdown. Figures indicate that happiness has not risen with incomes.Should we be surprised? Not really. Weve simply confirmed an old truth: the seeking of wealth does not always end with happiness.41.The Wealthy Society is a book _. A. about poverty in the pas
30、t B. written by Louis UchitelleC. indicating that people are becoming worse offD. about why happiness does not rise with wealth 42.According to Galbraith, people feel discontented because _. A. materialism has run wild in modern society B. they are in fear of another Great Depression C. public spend
31、ing hasnt been cut down as expected D. the government has proved to be necessary but ugly43.Why do people feel“squeezed”when their average income rises considerably? A. They think there are too many overpaid rich.B. There is more unemployment in modern society.C. Their material demands go faster tha
32、n their earnings.D. Health care and educational cost have somehow gone out of control.44.What does Louis Uchitelle mean by “the disposable American” ? A. People with a stable job.B. Workers who no longer have secure jobs.C. Those who see job stability as part of their living standard.D. People who h
33、ave a sense of security because of their rising incomes.45.What has wealth brought to American society? A. Stability and security.B. Materialism and content.C. A sense of self-accomplishment.D. New anxiety, conflicts and complaints.B Driving to a friends house on a recent evening, I was attracted by
34、 the sight of the full moon rising just above my friends rooftop. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it is that most city people - myself included - usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors. My friend had also seen it. He grew up livin
35、g in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life. I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water
36、. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever
37、known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply. Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We have television,cell phones, pagers, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers. Struggling through traffic
38、 that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought, “Before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. And perhaps write, but not in anger. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my
39、trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touched the moon.”46. The best title for the passage would be _.A. Touched by the Moon B. The Pleasures of Modern LifeC. A Bottomless well of SilenceD. Break away from Modern life4
40、7. The writer felt sorry for himself because _.A. there was too much pollution.B. he failed to see the fullest moon.C. he didnt adapt to modern inventionsD. there were too many accidents on the road.48. What impressed the writer most in the mountainous jungle of northern India?A. No modern equipment
41、.B. Complete silence.C. The nice moon. D. The high mountain.49. Modern things are mentioned mainly to _.A. show that the writer likes city life very much.B. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life.C. explain that people have less chances to enjoy nature.D. show that we can also enjoy na
42、ture at home through them.50. The author wrote the passage to _.A. express the feeling of returning to nature.B. show the love for the moonlight.C. advise modern people to learn to live.D. want to communicate longing for modern life. CThe engineer Camilla Olivetti was 40 years old when he started th
43、e company in 1908. At his factory in Ivrea, he designed and produced the first Italian typewriter. Today the companys head office is still in Ivrea, near Turin, but the company is much larger than it was in those days and there are offices all around the world, By 1930 there was a staff of 700 and t
44、he company turned out 13.000 machines a year. Some went to customers in Italy, but Olivetti exported more typewriters to other countries. Camillos son, Adriano, started working for the company in 1924 and later he became the boss. He introduced a standard speed for the production line and he employe
45、d technology and design specialist. The company developed new and better typewriters and then calculators(计算器). In 1959 it produced the ELEA computer system. This was the first mainframe(主机) computer designed and made in Italy.After Adriano died in 1960, the company had a period of financial problem
46、. Other companies, especially the Japanese, made faster progress in electronic technology than the Italian company.In 1978, Carlo de Benedetti became the new boss. Olivetti increased its marketing and service networks and made agreements with other companies to design and produce more advanced offic
47、e equipment. Soon it became one of the worlds leading companies in information technology and communications. There are now five independent companies in the Olivetti groupone for personal computers, one for other office equipment, one for systems and service, and two for telecommunications.51.From
48、the text we learn that A. by 1930 Olivetti produced 13.000 typewriters a yearB. Olivetti earned more in the 1960s than in the 1950sC. some of Olivettis 700 staff regularly visited customers in ItalyD. Olivetti set up offices in other countries from the very beginning52.

The Success of Olivetti.C. The History of Olivetti D. The Production of Olivetti.DIf I raised the questi
51、on, “What would be the last thing you would expect to happen while watching your sons flag football game?” you probably still couldnt come up with what happened to me and my family.As we were sitting on the sidelines enjoying the game, a low-flying bird came swooping in attempting to land on my daug
52、hters head! It honestly came out of nowhere. We were seated by ourselves on the tree lined side of the field. I was able to calm my daughters shock and fear once I showed her that the bird was not some wild animal, it was in fact, somebodys pet!Now, were sitting at the outdoor fields of the Pontiac
53、Silverdome, far from any populated area, wondering where this very social cockatiel, an Australian parrot (澳洲鹦鹉) could have come from. I walked up to the bird and put out my hand. Immediately, it hopped on and chirped in a friendly way. We looked around us and knew that we could not just leave and s
54、uppose that the bird would return to where it came from. This was a very domesticated bird that needed help or it would not survive.The flag football game had ended so we walked the bird over to other groups of adults and asked if they knew of anyone who had lost a bird. All the kids were excited ab
55、out the bird and fed it with some post game snacks. The birds nails were getting long and he was looking pretty dirty, so we knew it had been out here for a long time and was hungry. Since its wings were clipped, it could fly a little but probably not more than 100 yards or so at a try. We all just
56、scratched our heads as a group wondering what to do with the lost bird.We explained to the kids that this bird needed our help since it was someones pet and would not know how to get its own food, and it could not fly well since its wings were clipped. The kids understood, and all of them wanted to
57、take the bird home! The parents however, knew this was not a good choice as one had a large dog, another two cats, etc. We explained to the kids that one of us could take the bird home for the night and then bring it to the Humane Society in the morning in hopes to connect it to its owners. We could
58、nt keep the bird. It wasnt ours. This was tough for the kids to understand at first. We couldnt just leave the bird either. There was no way it could attend itself. The group of us sat around the Silverdome practice fields for quite a while trying to determine the best course of choice for the lost
59、bird. It was getting dark out but no one was willing to leave that parking lot until we had a game plan for how to help the bird.The owner of the football league, Chris Novak, offered to take the bird. It was extremely nice of him and he really stepped in to help while all the rest of us who had kid
60、s tugging on our shirts and begging to take it home. We took a box and put a bunch of holes in it and he brought it home for the night. Another mom went online and found a family that had lost a bird that looked just like the one wed found. She emailed the info to Chris who got in touch with the fam
61、ily and the next day, reunited the bird with the family that lost it almost 3 weeks earlier! When Chris emailed us to let us know, we could not believe that this bird had traveled from The Rochester Tienken area all the way to the Silverdome!We were so happy to be able to save this bird and get it b
62、ack to its family. I showed my kids the email about how the other family got their pet back. The family has 3 kids who were so happy to see their bird. My kids realized what a nice ending this story had. Not only had we been able to save this birds life, but we were able to bring it back to the fami
63、ly that loves and misses him.The life lesson in the missing bird story seemed to miss its mark with my kids at first. They were a little bummed out that they couldnt keep the lost bird. I explained to them that when an animal or someone needs help, you just cant turn a blind eye and hope everything
64、works out OK. The “lost bird incident” was also a reminder to them that teamwork and the kindness of strangers can make a world of difference and that a group of well-meaning strangers can work together to help someone. It wasnt a heroic act, but one that I knew had sunk in with my kids when they re
65、alized that trying to help was the best and only real course of action. 55. What happened when the author watched his sons football games? A. A parrot tried to eat their food. B. His daughter was hurt by a parrot. C. A parrot flew towards his daughter. D. A parrot landed on his daughters head.56. Th
66、e underlined word “domesticated” in the second paragraph probably means_.

Chris Novak C. The Humane Soci
67、ety D. A participants mother 58. What can be learned from the “lost bird incident”? A. Strangers can also work well together. B. Humane Society helps children in teamwork. C. Children can keep lost injured pet birds home. D. Helping others is always regarded as a heroic act.59. What did the author w
68、ant to tell in the text? A. How to help a lost parrot to find home. B. The experience of watching a football games. C. The importance of teamwork and helping others. D. How a parrot can fly a long distance from home. 60. The best title of the text should be_. A. What Animals Can Teach Us B. Complete
69、 Care for a Lost Bird C. Life Lessons When You Least Expect It D. Love First, Teamwork and Kindness Second 第二节：虎妈，美国耶鲁大学的华裔教授蔡美儿Amy Lynn Chua，出版了一本名叫虎妈战歌Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother的书，在美国引起轰动。在接受采访时，回答了记者的5个问题（第6165题）。请从下列提问（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出与她的回答相匹配的问题，并在答题卡上将相应选项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。QuestionsAWhat do y
70、ou think of the competition between China and the US?BWhat do you think of the image of “tiger mom?”CHow do your daughters take the criticism about you after your book was published?DYou said you would not get her Christmas gifts or anything when your daughter refused to repeatedly practice the musi
71、c. How did your husband respond?EWhat do you think makes a good mother?FWhat does your husband think of your method of bringing up kids?61. Chuas answer: Well, actually I think there are many ways of being a good mother. In my book my focus is just a memory about my own family story, me trying to ra
72、ise my own children in a kind of traditional Chinese way. I make mistakes and I make fun of myself. Its amazing the way the book has been received internationally, because. I didnt intend my book to be telling other people of view and I am a proud strict “tiger mom”. But Im not trying to tell other
73、people what are the best ways to teach or raise their children.62. Chuas answer: Well, the title may sound a little frightening. Let me tell you why I chose the title. I was born in the year of the tiger. And “battle Hymn” in the United States comes from “The Battle Hymn of the Republic”. The book i
74、s really about finding some sort of balance: how can we find the balance between the eastern way of parenting and the western way of parenting. In ways the book as been misunderstood maybe because of the title.63. Chuas answer: I didnt write this book to have any foreign policy implications. But its
75、 been taken into the foreign policy realm. It is of course true that there is a connection between child-raising and the future of nations. We are raising, as parents, the next generation. So I think Henry is right. We tapped into this thing of insecurity, Americans fear about the rising power of ch
76、ina. A friend of mine told me that if the book had been called The Battle Hymn of an Italian Mother or The Battle Hymn of a Mexican Mother, nobody would have cared. Its really “China”. you know.64. Chuas answer: I dont think he opposes my idea of raising children. Id like to think we have a combinat
77、ion, which is the right solution. You need a balance. From my perspective, what I give my kids is something that I thought was lacking in the US educational system. You know, they hate memorization, while in China you have too much of it. In the US, learning should be fun, a lot of games,. So I brou
78、ght hard work and disciplines. My husband and I think this is a great thing always teaching them to question the authority and to ask why. Dont accept everything just because somebody tells you. Figure it out yourself. I really think you need to combine both these qualities if you want creativity an
79、d dynamism.65. Chuas answer: They both are stronger than I am. I am really proud of them. Their friends and communities supported them. At a time, I couldnt even look at the Internet because there are so many negative comments. And they would find the good ones and text them to me, saying “heres a g
80、ood one mommy, hang in there.” This experience has actually brought my family together. Believe it or not, not just my kids, also my parents and my three younger sisters have supported me.第卷（非选择题，共40分）第三部分：写作（共两节，满分40分）第一节：短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）下面短文中有10处语言错误，请在有错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词。 增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号（），并
