23、iness 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,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。AA graded reader is a book containing simplified languages used to help learners master the language. Readers come in different levels, from beginners to advanced. English learners need to choose a reader that is suitable for their
24、 level.Why use readers? Lots of research shows that extensive(广泛的) reading improves all aspects of language learning, including vocabulary, speaking skills, fluency(流利), writing skills and reading comprehension.Reading is a way of learning English without classes or a teacher. It helps develop learn
25、er independence. And while reading graded readers, learners dont have to run to a dictionary because the language is at their level.How do I get started? The entire class can read the same book or different books at different times. How do I know the right level? If your class is all reading the sam
26、e book, choose one that is appropriate for their level. If your students are reading different books, you can have a selection of books at different levels. In this case, dont worry too much about the level. A learner who is interested in detective stories might read a higher level book if the motiv
27、ation(动机) is there.How to read the book depends on students” age, motivation and class time available. Some classes like to read silently, others like to read aloud in small groups and some enjoy being read to by the teacher. Be sensitive to the class and ask for their opinions. Some pre-reading act
28、ivities are needed. Before students open a book, it is important to spark interest in the story and in the whole process of reading. For example, ask them to guess what the story is from cover, chapter titles and let students put them in the best order, or discuss the author. During reading, choose
29、a suitable chapter or chapters that can be broken down to make a comic strip(连环漫画). Or students select a part of the book to make into a radio play. Students can also become journalists and report on parts of the story. Choose a piece of action and have students write it up. Besides, students can ro
30、le-play an interview with a character.56The underlined word “appropriate” in the fifth paragraph probably means “_”Afamous Bsuitable Cordinary Denjoyable57Who do you think students can become journalists and report on parts o f the story ?AStudents BParents CTeachers DPupils58When do you think stude
31、nts can become journalists and report on parts of the story? ABefore reading BDuring reading CDuring warming up DBefore a test59From the passage, we can infer that _.Areaders can make classroom fun BReading can help develop learners dependenceCsome pre-reading activities are not needed Dextensive re
32、ading improves all aspects of language learning BJapan has a new craze: “the virtual pet”-Tamagocchi. The new object of consumer desire is the latest in high-tech -an electronic bird creature, the size of an egg that has been sold out everywhere and is now only available on the streets at more than
33、20 times its original price of 11,980 yen or $16. You can feed it, stroke it, carry it in your pocket and even take it to the bathroom-all with the push of a button. But be aware that if you dont take care of your Tamagocchi- Japanese word for “lovely egg”-your pet will die before your eyes and befo
34、re its time.The Tamagocchi starts life as a bird-like image on the screen of an egg-shaped key-ring device. It changes from a chick to a fully grown adult in around 10 days. However, the owner must feed, clean and calm the digital creature by pushing the proper buttons to prevent it from dying from
35、neglect. The owner may choose to feed the creature digital sweets and enjoy its sounds of delight by pressing buttons in response to the creatures movements.60Whats the meaning of “the latest in high-tech” according to the passage ?AA bird creature fed by a child BA bird creature controlled by elect
36、ricityCA bird creature controlled by election DA bird creature by buttons61What is the present price of Tamagocchi ?AAbout 18 dollars B60 dollars CAbout 320 dollars D1,200 dollars 62The underlined word “neglect” (in Para 4) means _.Alack of care or attention Bpushing the wrong buttons Cplaying too m
37、uch attention Dlack of electricity63Which of the following statements is Not true about Tamagocchi?AIt can grow up in around 10 days BIt has to be fed, cleaned and calmed in case it might die.CIt can produce a sound of delight DIt can be bought everywhere now.64What is the best title for the passage
38、?AA new type of pet BTake good care of the TamagccohiCThe popularity of the Tamagccohi DA newly found bird- the TamagocchiCMany people hurt their backs when they try to lift heavy things from the floor. It is easy to hurt your back muscles when you pick up a heavy object. However, there is a correct
39、 way to lift things form the floor. If you pick up big or heavy objects correctly, you probably will not hurt your back.To lift something from the floor correctly, first bend your knees and squat down. Keep your back straight. Dont bend over from your waist; keep your back and hips and waist in a li
40、ne. If you bend over, the muscles in your lower back can become injured very easily. If you keep your back and hips straight, the muscles are stronger, because they have much more support. The other muscles can then help the lower back muscles.As you squat down, try to get as close to the object as
41、possible. For example, if you are going to pick up a heavy box, squat down directly in front of it; maybe you will have to spread your knees and legs. Put one knee on each side of the box. Remember at all times to keep your back straight.Put your hands under the object that is in front of you, betwe
42、en your knees. To lift the object, you should stand up slowly. Use your leg muscles in order to stand up. In other words, lift with your legs, not with your back.65To lift a heavy object mainly depends on _.Alegs Bback Cknees Dhands66To lift a heavy box, the most important thing you should do is _.
43、Ato put your hands under the box Bto bend your knees and squat down. Cto put one knee on each side of it Dto straighten your back at all times67When you lift a heavy thing, which of the following is wrong?AKeeping your back and hips and waist in a line. BPutting one knee in front of the thingCStandi
44、ng up slowly DPutting your hands under the thing between your knees.68Choose the correct order in which one lifts a heavy object correctly.aKeep your back straight bBend your knees cSpread your knees and legs dSquat down e.

45、Over time, the Declaration of Independence has deeply affected American history. Phrases from the document such as “all men are created equal” quickly took on a life of their own or were applied to groups that the authors never expected. Blacks quickly used this language to challenge slavery in the
46、United States. The ideal of equality led Northern states to free slaves in 1780s, 1790s, and early 1800s. black and white abolitionists(废奴主义者) used the ideal that all men were created equal to attack slavery in the South before the Civil War. And civil rights supporters gathered behind Jeffersons wo
47、rds in their fight against racism in the 1950s and 1960s. in 1848 the delegates(代表)to the Seneca Falls womens rights conference proclaimed that “all men and women are created equal”, and the 20th-centruy feminist (女权主义者) did the same.Other groups have focused on the documents defence of the right to
48、 rebel against an unjust government. The declaration of Independence had a deep effect on the French Revolution; its influence was strong in the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, adopted by the National Assembly of France in 1789. in the 19th century the principles of the declarat
49、ion were adopted by various Latin American movements fighting for independence from European colonial powers. The declaration influences more recent struggles for national identity (身份): Vietnamese Communist Leader HoChi Mink, for example, used the American document as one of the basic principles be
50、hind his fight to establish an independent and unified Vietnam.The document itself continues to be an important symbol for the American people. Today, each page of the Declaration of Independence is protected. Over one million Americans view the document each year in Washington, D,C. , where it is d
51、isplayed along with the constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights.69What can be inferred about the 20th century feminists?AThey fought against racism, using the Declaration of Independence BThey defended womens rights by referring to “men and women”CThey held conferences to discuss th
52、e Declaration of Independence.DThey proclaimed the Independence of Womens Rights.70The passage gives the example of the French Revolution to show that _.Athe Declaration of Independence ensures peoples rights to supervise(监督) the government.BThe Declaration of Independence ensures the equality for a
53、ll men.CFrench people and the U.S. are closely relatedDThe French Revolution had a strong influence on many Latin American Movements71From the last paragraph, we can see that today the Declaration of Independence _.Ahas had many of its pages lost Bis only available in Washington D. C.Cis still suppo
54、rted by the American people Dhas had many changes72What is the main idea of the passage?AThe Declaration of Independence and the French RevolutionBThe declaration of Independences influence on other countriesCThe application of the Declaration of Independence by different people DThe different purpo
55、ses of the Declaration of Independence EMagic is believed to have begun with the Egyptians, in 1700BC. A magician named Dedi of Dedsnefu was reported to have performed for the pharaoh, or the king. He was also known to have entertained the slaves who built the pyramids. The “Cups and Balls” trick wh
56、ich he was particularly good at is still performed by magicians all over the world today.The ancient Greeks and Romans were also fascinated(使着迷) by the idea of magic. Actually, one of their main interests was the art of deception. This explains why at that time the priests (牧师) even built magic devi
57、ces into their temples. These devices made it possible for doors to open by themselves and wine to flow magically out of statues mouths. This was done mainly to convince people that the priests were powerful.Magic, however, was not well accepted before the 1800s. Magicians were thought of as freaks(
58、非正常人)and were only allowed to perform in a circus. It was in the 19th century that the magician Robert Houdin came along and changed peoples views and attitudes about magic. It was also because of Robert Huoudin that many magicians were able to add Dr. or MD to their names. Today magicians try hard
59、to find new ways to show their practiced skills. Magic is now entertainment for families all over the world.73Which of the following is the best title for the passage?AMagical Tricks BA Great Magician CMagic as Entertainment DThe History of Magic74Which of the following is Not true according to the
60、passage ?ARobert Houdin changed peoples attitudes about magic in 19th century BToday magic is both entertainment and scienceCMagic is the art of deceptionDMagic was not well accepted before the 19th century 75In ancient Greece, what did the priests do to show people they had unusual power?AThey perf
