10、，从每题所给的四个选项 （A 、B 、C 和 D ）中 ，选出最佳选项。A A store that sells husbands has just opened in Ottawa where a woman may go to choose a husband from many men. The store consisted of 6 floors and the men increase in positive attributes（品质，特点）as the shopper goes up the flights. There is, however, a catch（陷阱）. As
11、 you open the door to any floor you may choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back down except to exit the building. So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 These men have jobs. The woman reads t
12、he sign and says to herself, “Well, thats better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder whats further up?” So up she goes. The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 These men have jobs and love kids. The woman remarks to herself, “Thats great, but I wonder whats further up?” And up she goes again. The thir
13、d floor sign reads: Floor 3 These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good-looking. “Hmm, better.” The fourth floor sign reads: Floor 4 These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good-looking and help with the housework. “Wow!” exclaims the woman, “Very tempting. But, there must be more, f
14、urther up!” And again she heads up another flight. The fifth floor sign reads: Floor 5 These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good-looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic character. “ Oh, mercy me! But just thinkwhat must be awaiting me further on?” So up to the sixth floo
15、r she goes. The sixth floor sign reads: Floor 6 You are visitor 3, 456, 789,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. Thank you for shopping Husband Mart and have a nice day.21. Women tend to go up the floor until they reach the top floor because _. A. they think the husbands downstairs are
16、 not suitable B. they are sure that the best husbands are on the top floor C. they think even better husbands may be upstairs D. they know the catch very well22. The writer intends us to believe that _. A. husbands are hard to shop B. women are hard to please C. women think they are better than men
17、D. women cant be too careful when choosing husbands23. We can infer from the passage that _. A. women are not good at shopping husbands B. more women will leave the shop alone C. women are romantic D. women are more kind than men B Death is natural, but do you have any idea of the process of dying?
18、Modern scientists divide the process of dying into two stages-clinical or temporary death and biological death. Clinical death occurs when the vital organs, such as the heart or lungs, have ceased to function, but have not suffered permanent damage. The organism can still be revived(复活). Biological
19、death occurs when changes in the organism lead to the “breaking up” of vital cells and tissues. Death is then unchangeable and final. Scientists have been seeking a way to lengthen the period of clinical death so that the organism can remain alive before biological death occurs. The best method deve
20、loped so far involves cooling of the organism, combined with narcotic（麻醉的) sleep. By slowing down the bodys metabolism(新陈代谢), cooling delays the processes leading to biological death. To illustrate how this works, scientists performed an experiment on a six-year-old female monkey called Keta. The sc
21、ientist put Keta to sleep with a narcotic. Then they surrounded her body with ice-bags and began checking her body temperature. When it had dropped to 28 degrees the scientists began draining（流光） blood from an artery（动脉）. The monkeys blood pressure decreased and an hour later both the heart and brea
22、thing stopped: clinical death set in. For twenty minutes Keta remained in this state. Her temperature dropped to 22 degrees. At this point the scientists pumped blood into an artery in the direction of the heart and started artificial breathing. After two minutes Ketas heart became active once more.
23、 After fifteen minutes, spontaneous(自发的)breathing began, and after four hours Keta opened her eyes and lifted her head. After six hours, when the scientists tried to give her a penicillin injection, Keta seized the syringe（注射器）and ran with it around the room. Her behavior differed little from that o
24、f a healthy animal.24. For a person who suffers from the clinical death _. A. he still has the possibility of getting back to life B. his most important organs are damaged. C. he can not avoid final death. D. he is still very much alive25. Scientists try to make the time of clinical death longer in
25、order to_. A. slow down the bodys metabolism. B. bring vital cells and tissues back to active life. C. delay the coming of biological death.D. cool the organism.26. How did the scientists put Keta into clinical death? A. By surrounding her body with ice-bags and draining her blood. B. By lowing her
26、blood pressure and stopping her heart from beating. C. By draining her blood, lowering her blood pressure and stopping her breathing. D. By putting her to sleep, lowering her temperature and draining her blood.27.All of the following indicate that the monkey has almost restored to her original physi
27、cal state except the fact that_. A. her heart beat again. B. she regained her normal breath. C. she rejected a penicillin injection. D. she acted as lively as a healthy monkey. C “OK,” I said to my daughter as she bent over her afternoon bowl of rice. “Whats going on with you and your friend J.? ” J
28、. is the leader of a group of third-graders at her campa position Lucy herself occupied the previous summer. Now shes the one on the outs. and every day at snack time, she tells me all about it, while I offer the unhelpful advice all summer long. “Shes fond of giving orders, “Lucy complained. “Shes
29、turning everyone against me. Shes mean. And shes fat.” “Excuse me,” I said, struggling for calm. “What did you just say?” “Shes fat.” Lucy mumbled (含糊地说). “Were going upstairs,” I said, my voice cold. “Were going to discuss this.” And up we went. Id spent the nine years since her birth getting ready
30、 for this day, the day wed have the conversation about this horrible word. I knew exactly what to say to the girl on the receiving end of the teasing, but in all of my imaginings, it never once occurred to me that my daughter would be the one who used the F wordFat. My daughter sat on her bed, and I
31、 sat beside her. “How would you feel if someone made fun of you for something that wasnt your fault?” I began. “She could stop eating so much,” Lucy mumbled, mouthing the simple advice a thousand doctors have given overweight women for years. “Its not always that easy,” I said. “Everyones different
32、in terms of how they treat food.” Lucy looked at me, waiting for me to go on. I opened my mouth, then closed it. Should I tell her that, in teasing a womans weight, shes joined the long tradition of critics? Should I tell her I didnt cry when someone posted my picture and commented, “Im sorry, but a
33、rent authors who write books marketed to young women supposed to be pretty?” Does she need to know, now, that life isnt fair? I feel her eyes on me, waiting for an answer I dont have. Words are my tools. Stories are my job. Its possible shell remember what I say forever, and I have no idea what to s
34、ay. So I tell her the only thing I can come up with that is absolutely true. I say to my daughter, “I love you, and there is nothing you could ever do to make me not love you. But Im disappointed in you right now. There are plenty of reasons for not liking someone. What she looks like isnt one of th
35、em.” Lucy nods, tears on her cheeks. “I wont say that again,” she tells me, and I pull her close, pressing my nose against her hair. As we sit there together, I pray for her to be smart and strong. I pray for her to find friends, work she loves, a partner who loves her. And still, always, I pray tha
36、t she will never struggle as Ive struggled, that weight will never be her cross to bear. She may not be able to use the word in our home, but I can use in my head. I pray that she will never get fat.28. Why does the author want to discuss with Lucy? A. Because she wants to offer some other helpful a
37、dvice. B. Because she is really shocked at Lucys rudeness. C. Because she has prepared the conversation for nine years. D. Because she decides to tell Lucy a similar story of her own.29.What does the author want to tell her daughter? A. It is not easy to take the doctors advice to eat less. B. Peopl
38、e shouldnt complain because life is unfair. C. People shouldnt be blamed for their appearance. D. She herself was once laughed at for her appearance.30.It can be inferred from the passage that_.

A. satisfied and friendly B. indifferent but patient C. loving but strict D. unsatisfied and angry D Children
40、s lives have changed greatly over the last 50 years. But do they have a happier childhood than you or I did? Its difficult to look back on ones own childhood without some element of nostalgia(怀旧的). I have four brothers and sisters, and my memories are all about being with them, playing board games o
41、n the living room floor, or spending days in the street with the other neighborhood children, racing up and down on our bikes, or exploring the nearby woods. My parents scarcely appear in these memories, except as providers either of meals or of severe blame after some particularly risky adventure.
42、These days, in the UK at least, the nature of childhood has changed dramatically. Firstly, families are smaller. It is common for both parents to work outside the home and there is the feeling that there just isnt time to bring up a large family, or that no one could possibly afford to have more tha
43、n one child. As a result, todays boys and girls spend much of their time alone. Another major change is that youngsters today tend to spend a huge amount of their free time at home, inside. This is due to the fact that parents worry far more than they used to about real or imagined dangers, so they
44、wouldnt dream of letting their children play outside by themselves. Finally, the kind of toys children have and the way they play is totally different. Computer and video games have replaced the board games and more interesting activities of my childhood. The irony(讽刺) is that so many ways of playin
45、g games are called “interactive”. The fact that you can play electronic games on your own further increases the sense of loneliness felt by many young people today. Do these changes mean that children today have a less relaxing childhood than I had? I personally believe that they do, but perhaps eve
46、ry generation feels exactly the same. 32. What is the purpose of the direct question given in the first paragraph? A. To get peoples attention and lead in the topic. B. To gather peoples opinions on childhood. C. To show who the passage is written for. D. To compare the childhood lives of two genera
47、tions.33. Which is NOT a reason for the changes? A. Families are smaller today. B. Parents worried too much about their children. C. Toys can be played by children alone at home. D. Its too dangerous to play outside.34. What has the writer focused on in the fourth paragraph? A. Young people today sh
48、ouldnt play electronic games. B. Some games that young people play today arent really good. C. Computer and video games have replaced the board games. D. Board games are much more interesting than computer games.35. The writers attitude towards the childhood changing is _ . A. approvingB. unconcerne
49、dC. objectiveD.optimistic第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Home on the Way People need homes. Children assume their parents place as home. Boarders call school “home” on weekdays. Married couples work together to build new homes and travelers have no place to call “home
50、”, at least for a few nights.36? Dont they have the right to a home? Of course they do. Some regular travelers take their own belongings like bed sheets, pillowcases and family photos to make them feel like home no matter where they are. Some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as a result b
51、ecome very familiar with service and attendants. 37.Furthermore, driving a camping car during ones travels and sleeping in the vehicle at night is just like homeonly mobile! And how about keeping relationships while in transit(运输中)?38. Some send letters and postcards, or even photos. Others may just
52、 call and say Hi just to let their friends know that theyre still alive and well. People find ways to keep in touch. Making friends on the way helps travelers feel more or less at home.39. Nowadays, fewer people are working in their local towns, so how do they develop a sense of belonging? Whenever
53、we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home” waiting to be found.40, we can make the place we stay “home”.A. Hostels（招待所） provide a clean safe place to stay while you are travelling the worldB. Others may simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make things more homelyC.
54、 Backpackers in youth hostels may become very good friends,even closer than siblings(手足)D. So how about people who have to travel for extended periods of timeE.
