15、, Professor Donald Crouch came to our school. He was a retired college professor. English was his 40 subject; poetry was his deepest love. He held a book of poems 41 it were a diamond necklace, turning pages as if uncovering treasures. When he heard our school was teaching Shakespeare and other clas

There was, however, one 45 between usProfessor Crouch could not stand the 46 that I refused to read my poems to the class.“Jim, poetry is 47 to be read aloud,” he said.
17、 “You should be able to speak those beautiful words.” I shook my head and 48 .Then he tricked me. After handing in a poem, I waited for his 49 . It didnt come.

With knees shaking, I walked up. For a moment I stood 53 . Then I began, and kept going. I recited my poem all the

22、nterest第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。AAs the only physician in a small local clinic and hospital, Katrina Poe sees dozens of patients on any given day. Shes on call at the hospital in Kilmichael every day, and she gets little time with her sons, aged 3 and 3 months. Bu
23、t the country doctor doesnt complain about her job. Its the one she chose for herself 25 years ago while she was a fifth-grader in Kilmicahael.The daughter of two workers in a town that had produced only two other doctors, Poe might not have been expected to go to college at all, let alone medical s
24、chool. But it was a challenge at first, being the towns first female and first black doctor. She even had patients who refused to see her at first. But a lot of those patients who were unwilling in the beginning are now some of her most favorite patients and have accepted her, finally. Many patients
25、, in fact, now refuse to seek health care elsewhere.Though shes working at least 80 hours a week, Poe is sorry that she sometimes has to turn patients away. “I just cant see everybody,” she says. “Im seeing patients after hours, so its just very busy.” In addition to her work at the hospital and cli
26、nic, Poe cares for all residents of the local nursing home and the local mental health facility during monthly visits. “This town and the little hospital are fortunate to have her,” says Calvin Johnson, Poes husband. He says it is without a doubt “the love and support of the people” that make living
27、 in Kilmichael worthwhile for the family.In recognition of her services to rural medicine, the Texas-based physician staffing firm Staff Care Inc. named Poe, 35, the “2005 Country Doctor of the Year.”56Which of the following statements is NOT true?APoe is too busy to spare time for her family.BPoe d
28、ecided to be a doctor when she was in Grade 5.CThere are three doctors in Poes family.DPoes husband takes pride in her.57When Katrina Poe began her work at the beginning, it was difficult because _.Ashe was not accepted by the local peopleBshe was poor in medical skillsCthere were few patients in th
29、e townDthe town had other good hospitals58What would be the best title for the passage?AThe Only Physician in A TownBA Black Doctor Popular with PatientsCA Hard-working Doctor in a TownDDoctors in Great Need in KilmichaelBHappy birthday! Do birthdays really make people happy? Of course they do. Birt
30、hdays celebrate the day we were born. Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of growth and maturity(成熟)or so we hope. We all like to imagine that were getting wiser and not just older. Most of us enjoy seeing the miracle(奇迹) of growth in others, as well. For instance, seeing ou
31、r children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud. For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process(过程). But growing old? Thats a different story.Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented(以年轻人为中心) American culture. Most Americans like to
32、 look young, act young and feel young. As the old saying goes, “Youre as young as you feel.” Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old. People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor those that are
33、 young, or at least “young at heart.”Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything but golden. Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just to get by. Retirement(退休) at age 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income. Social security(安全) benefits usually cannot make up the dif
34、ference. Older people may suffer from poor nutrition(营养), medical care and housing. Some even experience age discrimination. In 1987, American sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets. She was often treated rudelyeven cheated and robbed. However, dressed as a y
35、oung person, she received much more respect.Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing fast. Why? People are living longer. Fewer babies are being born. And middle-aged “baby boomers” are rapidly entering the groups of the elderly. America may soon be a place where wrinkles(皱纹) a
36、re “in”. Marketing experts are already noticing this growing group of consumers.59Growing up is a wonderful thing because _.Apeople can celebrate their birthdaysBpeople can become more mature and wiserCpeople can receive many presentsDpeople will feel younger at heart60We can infer from the second p
37、aragraph that _.Ayoung people lack experience and wisdomBAmerican older people often joke about their old ageCAmerican culture is very youngDdifferent countries have different opinions on the old age61The underlined sentence (in Paragraph 3) means “_.”AThe golden years can make the old earn lots of
38、money and receive good medical careBThe old people in America are leading a hard life without good nutrition, medical care or housingCThe old in America have to retire at the age of 65DAmerican social security benefits are not good62From the last paragraph we know that the underlined word “in” can b
39、e replaced by _.AseriousBbadCdisappearing slowlyDgrowing fastCWhat should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineer
40、ing career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be
41、 used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may have taught you skills, such
42、 as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to g
43、et to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also
44、part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your
45、background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.63What is the passage mainly about?AThe significance of working hard at school.BThe direct and indirect value of school work.CHow to face ones weakness.DChoosing a career acco
46、rding to ones strong points.64According to the passage, doing a part-time job as a student _.Acan help afford ones educationBis a good way to practice the skills learnt in schoolCcan help you to prepare for future workDis a waste of time that could have been spent on study65From the passage we learn
47、 that if a students school performance is not good, he _.Ashould pay more attention to learning skills and developing abilitiesBwill be regretful about his bad resultsCmay also do well in his future workDshould restart his study in school66The underlined phrase “be all thumbs” (in Paragraph 3) proba
48、bly means “_”.Abe clumsy at doing thingsBbe skillful in doing thingsCdo not have interest in certain thingsDbe easily bored in doing things67From the last paragraph we know one should _.Amake full use of ones own weak pointsBstudy harder for a new school recordCface ones own weak points bravelyDapol
49、ogize for ones own school recordDMore than seven hundred students will serve for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games not as volunteers but as interns(实习生), working for months before the event and during the Games to help ensure its success.A co-operation agreement was signed between the Beijing Organizin
50、g Committee for the Games of the XXIX Olympiad (GOCOG) and 16 Beijing-based universities and colleges. The schools will prepare the students to be interns.Although the interns will work without pay, they are considered different to volunteers, who will also provide services for the Games.Well-known
51、schools such as Peking University, Tsinghua University, Renmin University of China, Beijing Normal University and Beijing Jiaotong University are included on the list.The interns will work much longer than the Games volunteers, since they have to begin their work at BOCOG as early as one year before
52、 the Games start, while most of the volunteers work only during the 16 days of the Games. They have to finish the required lessons of their universities first and then learn more in their specialities to qualify to work for the BOCOG. They will take some special classes on Olympic knowledge and cert
53、ain professional lessons outside the university to meet the needs of serving in the Olympics.The 706 interns will be made up of 446 postgraduates, 118 undergraduates and 142 higher vocational students. They will come from such majors as foreign languages, media and communications, logistics and lega
54、l affairs.According to university officials, the undergraduates will be students who have been admitted to college this year (2005) while the postgraduates will be those who enter next year.68The interns will be chosen from _.Astudents whose homes are in BeijingBstudents studying in BeijingConly 6 f
55、amous schoolsDschools all over China69Whats the difference between the interns and the volunteers?AThe volunteers receive no pay.BThe interns work during the Games.CThe volunteers come mainly from universities.DThe interns provide longer, more specialized services.70The chosen students will be busy
56、because they have to _.Alearn both in and outside the universityBgraduate ahead of timeClook for part-time jobsDlearn many extra subjects at college71A chosen undergraduate will begin to work for BOCOG _.Ain his or her first college yearBin his or her second college yearCin his or her third college
57、yearDin his or her fourth college year2,4,6EIn todays Internet age, the demand for online games continues to grow. Online computer game centers exist in many cities and towns throughout Asia. Facing the pressures of school and life, people tend to the virtual world, expecting a diversion from these
58、problems. Too often, however, they can lead to problems and unhealthy addictions.This is most clearly seen in the example of South Korea. The country has the worlds highest percentage of high-speed Internet services. It also has a high number of online game players and related problems. In 2002, a y
59、oung man collapsed(突然晕倒) and died while playing online games. He had been playing almost nonstop for 86 hours at an Internet caf. Another young man killed his sister after becoming confused between the online world and real life. A 12-year-old boy stole US $ 16,000 from his father and ran away from
60、home. He did this to continue his obsession(着迷) with an online game. Such problems, however, dont just happen in South Korea. They are spreading to other parts of Asia, as well.What kinds of people develop online game addiction? What does the problem look like? Dr. SueHuei Chen, a clinical psycholog
61、ist, researches Internet addiction. She discovered some signs of at-risk individuals such as lack friendships and good social skills. Those problem individuals feel it so compulsive to play online games that they could sacrifice things such as school or family. They feel the need to spend more and m
62、ore time online. And they become upset if anyone tries to limit their online game playing.How many problem game players are there? In mainland China, the potential number of problem online gamers is alarming. In 2004, the China daily reported that China had 13.8 million online game players. Furtherm
63、ore, it stated that 80 percent of these were under 25 and had signs of addiction. Such numbers point toward a growing problem among Chinese youth.Make sure to keep control over your online game playing. If you dont control it, it can get control of you.72What is mainly discussed in the passage?AThe
64、disadvantages of the Internet.BThe online game problems in Asia.CThe popularity of online games worldwide.DThe cause of online game addiction.73The underlined word “diversion” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _.AcareerBcomfortCescapeDsupport74According to Paragraph 2, which of the fol
65、lowing statements is NOT true?AOnline violence is blamed for the young killers wrong action.BOnline game playing is responsible for the young mans death.CPeople in South Korea have access to the Internet most easily.DThe teenage boy stole money due to his playing games online.75What can we learn fro
66、m the passage?AMost people in Asia have developed an addiction to online games.BOnline game addictions cause many life-and-death problems in South Korea.CLonely and unsocial people seem to more easily develop Internet addictions.DIn the year 2004 there were a total of 13.8 million Chinese visiting t
