15、选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A.Lisa is ten years old. She is handicapped because she has brain damage. She could not do even the simplest thing until a year ago. She could not comb her hair or feed herself. Her parents loved her. And they treated her like a baby.Mr. Cling has a daughter and a son. They are b
16、oth grown. They live far from their father. Mr. Cling felt lonely. So he decided to become a foster grandfather to a handicapped child. And that was how he met Lisa.Foster grandparents are grandparents who are not related by birth, but foster parents love the children they care for. They also help t
17、he handicapped children in special ways. They help to dress and feed the children. They read to them and tell them stories. They also help with handicapped childrens therapy. Therapy is the treatment of a disease or disorder. It helps the children overcome their handicaps.Mr. Cling became a foster g
18、randparent to Lisa when she was nine years old. At first, Lisa was shy. She was afraid because Mr. Cling was a stranger. But he came to see her every day, gradually she began to trust him. At last, Lisa let Mr. Cling do things for her.Cling speaks for most foster grandparents when he says, “We all b
19、enefit. The handicapped children benefit because we help them live more useful lives. And we benefit because we know the children need us and love us. For any person, there is no greater happiness than that.”41. Why did Lisa need help?A. She was a babyB. She did not want to do anything.C. She had br
20、ain damage.D. She was a blind girl.42. What does the underlined word “foster” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Old-aged. B. Related by birthC. Not related by birth D. Kind-hearted43. Which five things do foster grandparents do for handicapped children?a. help with their treatment b. dress them c. live in thei
21、r homesd. feed them e. charge them money f. read to themg. tell them stories h. make fun of themA. a,b,d,e,f B. a,c,e,f,h C. b,c,d,f,g D. a,b,d,f,g44. Why did Mr. Cling foster Lisa?A.

The Greatest Happiness!BMost people think that the capital of the movie world is Hollywood, in the United States. However, the r
23、eal movie capital is Mumbai, in India. Mumbai used to be known as Bombay, and so the film industry there is called “Bollywood.” Bollywood makes twice as many movies each year as Hollywoodmore than 800 films a year.The movies from Bollywood are very different from Hollywood movies. For one thing, Bol
24、lywood movies are much longer than most Hollywood movies. Most Bollywood movies are more than three hours long, and contain singing, dancing, action, adventure, mystery, and romance (but usually no kissing). Because Bollywood films contain so many different features, this style of film is sometimes
25、called a “masala” film. (“Masala” is an Indian word for a mixture of spices.)Another big difference between Bollywood and Hollywood movies is the way movies are made. It takes much longer to make a movie in Hollywood than in Bollywood. In fact, filming may begin on a Bollywood movie before the scrip
26、t even finished. The director and writers can make up the story while the film is being made. Sometimes they will even write the script by hand instead of taking time to type it.Bollywood actors are very popular and some are in such high demand that they may work on several movies at the same time.
27、They may even shoot scenes for several films on the same day using the same costumes and scenery. Since most Bollywood movies follow the same kind of story, shooting scenes for several films at the same time is not a big problem for actors or directors. This also helps keep the cost of Bollywood mov
28、ies lower than the cost of Hollywood movies. The average Bollywood film, with a budget of only two million U.S. dollars, seems very cheap compared to the average budget of sixty million U.S. dollars for a Hollywood film- thirty times as much! 46. What is the main topic of the reading?A. famous stars
29、 in Bollywood B. how Hollywood movies are madeC. the differences between two movie industries D. the history of movie-making in India47. What is NOT true about Mumbai?A.

They are much longer than Hollywood films. D. They mix different styles of movies.49. Bollywood movies are cheap to make because _ .A. they are
31、shorter than Hollywood films. B. the scripts are written by hand.C. the movies do not use any special effects. D. one movie can reuse things from other movies.50. Which of these statements would the writer probably agree with?A. Most Bollywood movies are very similar.B. It takes a lot of money to ma
32、ke a good movie.C. Only Indian people can understand Bollywood movies.D. Hollywood movies are too violent.CTwo American scientists told the people in industrial nations that they would be much healthier if they ate more of the same kind of foods eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.The
33、scientists say that the human body has changed very little since human first appeared on earth, but the way we live has changed greatly. Our body has not been able to deal with these changes in life style and this has led to new kinds of sicknesses. These new sicknesses were not known in ancient tim
34、es. So they are called diseases of civilization. Many cancers and diseases of the blood system, including heart attacks and strokes are examples of such diseases.Scientists noted that early stone-age people used very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none. Ancient people also got a great deal of p
35、hysical exercise, but a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and life today.Stone-age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than farm animals. They also ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables, and fruits. They did not use milk and other
36、 dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. But today, we eat a large amount of dairy products and grain foods. We eat six times more salt than stone-age people. We eat more sugar. We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.People today probably
37、 do not want to live as people thousands of years ago did, but scientists say that we would be much healthier if we ate as those ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet foods.51.
