19、）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项, 请将答案按题号涂到对应的答题卡题号上。 ASome people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together, they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: international competitions encourage false national
20、 pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred. There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was there the tragic incident including the murder of athletes, but the
21、 Games were also ruined by incidents caused mainly by smaller national contests. One country received its second-place medals with visible anger after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were sure that one of
22、 their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents victory was unfair. Their manager was in great anger when he said, “This wasnt hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the
23、 suspension（停赛）of the team for at least three years. Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the pre
24、sent organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism (爱国主义).46. According to the author, recently the Olympic Games have _.A. created goodwill between the nations B. brought about only false national prideC. hardly showed any international friendship D. put a
25、n end to misunderstanding and hatred47. The underlined word “disallowed”(in Paragraph 2) means “_”.A. permitted to pass B. considered as reasonableC. won by the other side D. refused to accept48. What did the manager mean by saying, “Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished?A. His
26、 team would no longer take part in international games.B. Hockey and the Federation are both ruined by the unfair decisions.C. There should be no more Hockey matches organized by the Federation.D. The Federation should break up.49. The author gives the example in paragraph 2 to show _.A. how false n
27、ational pride led to undesirable incidents in international gamesB. that sportsmen are often against the final decisionsC. that competitiveness in the games discourages international friendshipD. that unfair decisions are common in the Olympic Games50. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?A
28、. The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved.B. Athletes should compete as individuals in the OlympicGames.C. A game should be played competitively rather than for the love of the game.D. More and more athletes will compete for their own honor. BLike any good mother, when Karen found out
29、 that another baby was on the way, she did what shecould to help her 3-year-old son, Michael, prepare for a new baby. They find out that the new baby is going to be a girl, and day after day, night after night, Michael sings to his sister in Mommys stomach.In time, the labor pains come. But complica
30、tions arise during delivery. Finally, Michaels little sister is born. But she is in serious condition. With alarm in the night, the ambulance rushes the infant to the neonatal intensive care unit at St. Marys Hospital, Knoxville, Tennessee. The days go by. The little girl gets worse. The pediatric (
31、儿科的) specialist tells the parents, “There is very little hope. Be prepared for the worst.”Karen and her husband contact a local cemetery about a burial plot. They have fixed up a special room in their home for the new baby, but now they plan a funeral. Michael keeps begging his parents to let him se
32、e his sister, I want to sing to her, he says. But kids are never allowed in Intensive Care. Karen makes up her mind. She will take Michael whether they like it or not. If he doesnt see his sister now, he may never see her alive.She dresses him in an oversized suit and marches him into ICU. He looks
33、like a walking laundry basket, but the head nurse recognizes him as a child and shouts, Get that kid out of here now. No children are allowed. Never disturb patients here.” The mother rises up strongly and said, He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!Karen leads Michael to his sisters bedsid
34、e. He gazes at the tiny infant losing the battle to live. And he begins to sing. In the pure hearted voice of a 3-year-old, Michael sings: You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray Instantly the baby girl responds. The pulse rate begins to calm down and becomes ste
35、ady.“Keep on singing, Michael.”encouraged Karen with tears in her eyes. You never know, dear, how much I love you, please dont take my sunshine away.The next day, the very next day, the little girl is well enough to go home! Womans Day magazine called it the miracle of a brothers song. The medical s
36、taff just called it a miracle. Karen called it a miracle of Gods love!Never give up on the people you love.51. What may the underlined words the infant refer to?A. The baby B. KarenC. Mary D. Michael52. What do we know about the little sister after she was born?A. She was driven to St. Marys shop. B
37、. A doctor came to see her in her house.C. She was very thin and couldnt speak. D. She was in great danger.53. Why did Karen firmly let little Michael see his sister in ICU?A.

39、ers life.BThe little girl is well enough to go home.CMichaels little sister is born with a serious disease.DNo children are allowed to enter the intensive care unit.CA child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead p
40、arents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tale
41、s is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of child
42、ren being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds
43、 that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar that I
44、do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl -friend.No fairy story ever declared to be a description of th
45、e real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.56. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is _.A. repeated without any change B. treated as a jokeC. made some changes by the parent D. set in the present57. According to the passage, great fear can take place
46、 in a child when the story is _.A. in a realistic setting B. heard for the first timeC. repeated too often D. told in a different way58.The advantage claimed (提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it _.A. makes them less fearfulB. develops their power of memoryC. makes them belie
47、ve there is nothing to be afraid ofD. encourages them not to have strange beliefs59.The authors mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that _.A. fairy stories are still being made upB. there is some misunderstanding about fairy talesC. people try to modernize old fairy storiesD. there
48、is more concern for childrens fears nowadays60. One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that _.A. they are full of imaginationB. they just make up the stories which are far from the truthC. they are not interestingks5uD. they make teachers of history difficult to teachD
49、The African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on earth, is of great importance to African ecosystem (生态系统). Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. As a big planteater, it largely shapes the forestandsavanna (稀树草原) surroundings in whi
50、ch it lives, therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat.It is the elephants great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must h
51、ave every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches of big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a v
52、ariety of other planteaters.Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the fores
53、t floor. In such situations, the forests become suitable for large hoofed planteaters to move around and for small planteaters to get their food as well.What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other a
54、nimals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.61. What is the passage mainly about? A. Disappearance of African elephants.B. Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants.C. The effect of African elephants search for foo
55、d.D. The eating habit of African elephants.62. What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean? A. Fixing the time. B. Worsening the state.C. Improving the quality. D. Deciding the conditions.63What do we know about the open spaces in the passage? A. They result from the destr
56、uction of rain forests.B. They provide food mainly for African elephants.C. They are home to many endangered animals.D. They are attractive to planteating animals of different kinds.64According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The African elephant is the largest animal on
57、 earth.B. African elephants have 300 pounds of plants every day, including small trees and under bushes.C. The African elephant is in a way the builder of the environment like other land animals.D. If the African elephant disappears, the whole ecosystem wont be affected.65The passage is developed ma
