高中英语阅读专项例题
⑴ 高中英语阅读表达典型例题（我要典型题附有答案的）
1. It is _______ outside. Let’s put on our raincoats and go out, Tom.
A. cold B. hot C. sunny D. rainy
【解析】此题易误为。因为这里有个put on短语，如果不注意raincoats这个词那就很可能草率地选择A。raincoats是“雨衣”的意思，而不是一般的衣服，那么不是因为外面“冷”，而是因为“下雨”才穿“雨衣”。正确答案为D。
2. —_______ do you _______ about spring?
—The flowers and the green trees.
A. How, like B. How, think C. What, think D. What, like
【解析】此题陷阱选项为A或B或C。这是由于忽略语境造成的。由答语The flowers and the green trees. 可知，所问的是“你喜欢春天的什么?”而不是“你觉得春天怎么样?”。正确答案为D。
3. —What’s your sister like?
—_______.
A. She is a worker B. She likes pears
C. She is very thin D. She is like her father
【解析】此题陷阱选项为B或D。有很多考生一看题干中的like一词就会想当然地选择B或D。其实，问句的意思是“你姐姐长得怎么样?”因此，正确答案为C。What’s … like? 这个句型常常用来询问某人的长相或某事的情况(包括天气情况)。
4. —It’s too hot. Would you mind _______ the door?
—_______. Please do it now.
A. to open, OK B. opening, Certainly not
C. opening, Of course D. to open, Good idea
【解析】此题陷阱选项为A。一方面是由于不了解mind的用法，另一方面的由于忽略造成的。mind后面接动词时要用其ing形式。由答语中的Please do it now. 可知“不介意”。正确答案为B。
5. —If you have any trouble, be sure to call me.
—_______.
A. I am glad to hear that B. I will. thank you very much.
C. I have no trouble D. I will think it over
【解析】此题陷阱选项为A或D。由于受汉语思维的影响很容易选择A或D。其实，问句意为“如果你有麻烦，一定要打电话给我”，这是一个表示请求的句子，对于别人的请求要么拒绝要么接受，而不能含糊其辞。正确答案为C。
典型形容词和副词考题分析
1. We should keep _______ in the reading-room.
A. quite B. quietly
C. quiet D.quickly
【解析】此题容易误选A或B。选A是由于不细心，把quite当成是quiet，草率做题造成的；选B是由于把keep误认为是一般的实义动词，修饰实义动词当然得用副词。其实，这里的keep连系动词，后面要接形容词作表语。正确答案为C。
2. The light in the room wasn’t _______for me to read.
A. enough bright B. brightly enough
C. enough brightly D. bright enough
【解析】此题容易误选A或B。选A的人是受的汉语思维的影响，enough bright翻译过来正好是“足够明亮”的意思，其实这并不符合英语的习惯，在英语中当enough修饰形容词或副词时一定要后置；选B的人没有注意所缺的成分是表语，作表语时应该用形容词而不用副词。正确答案为D。
3. She is _______of the two.
A. the cleverest B. the cleverer
C. the clever D. cleverest
【解析】此题容易误选A。这是由于思维定势引起的。因为最高级的比较范围往往用of短语引出，那么一些考生一看到of一词就毫不犹豫地选择了A项。其实，由这里的two可知，两者中的比较只能用比较级，而且指特定的两者中“较……的那一个”时，比较级前往往要用定冠词the。因此正确答案为B。
4. —How far is the factory from here?
—It’s about 4 kilometres _______.
A. far B. long
C. away D. near
【解析】此题容易误选A。这是由于受到汉语思维的影响，因为译成汉语正好是“大约4公里远”。其实，问距离时可以用How far is …. ?，但是far不能与表示具体的距离连用，此时应该用away。因此，正确答案为C。
5. —Do you have enough men to carry these chairs?
—No. I think we need _______ men.
A. another B. other two
C. more two D. two more
【解析】此题容易误选A或B或C。选A的同学是由于草率做题造成的，因为这里空格后面是个复数名词，而不是单数可数名词，因此不能选A。选B或C的同学是由于汉语思维的影响引起的，汉语中说“另外两个”，但是英语中要说other two或two more，这与汉语的习惯不一样。正确答案为D。
其实，another后面也可以接一些表示时间、距离、金钱、重量等的复数名词。如：
If you give us another twenty minutes (= twenty more minutes), we will finish the work. 如果你再给我们二十分钟，我们就可以完成这项工作。
6. He is taller than _______ girl in his class.
A. any B. other
C. any other D. another
【解析】此题容易误选C。这是由于思维定势引起的。平时大家都熟悉这样的句子China is larger than any other country in Asia. Shanghai is larger than any other city in China. 于是than any other这个结构在同学们的头脑中已经根根深蒂固了。其实，到底要不要other, 关键是看主语是否也在比较的范围之内；如果在范围之内，就必须用other, 以此来避免与自身进行比较；如果不在范围之内，则不能用other, 因为没有必要把自身排除。这里主语he不属于girl in his class之列，不能用other, 因此正确为A。
7. How beautifully she sings! I have never heard _______ voice.
A. the best B. a best
C. the better D. a better
【解析】此题容易误选A。这是由于思维定势引起的，许多同学认为最高级前加了定冠词the肯定没错。其实，这是一个暗含比较级，它省略了一些我们很清楚的东西，句子的完整形式应为：I have never heard a better voice than her voice. 因此正确答案为D。
8. _______ fathers made them have piano lessons.
A. Peter and Ann’s B. Peter’s and Ann’s
C. Peter’s and Ann D. Peter and Ann
【解析】此题容易误选A或C。错误的原因是由于受思维定势的影响。平时考生们做多了“This is Lucy and Lily’s bedroom. ”这样的题，那么一看到这样的题就想到只是在后面一个单词后面用所有格。其实，到底用一个所有格，还是用两个所有格，取决于它们所修饰的名词：如果所修饰的名词是单数可数名词，就只在后面一个名词后面用所有格；如果所修饰的名词是复数可数名词，就两个名词都用所有格。正确答案为B。
9. There are a lot _______ people today than yesterday.
A. of B. / C. most D. more
【解析】此题容易误选A。有不少考生因受“ a lot of +名词”这一思维定势的影响，一看到a lot，就选择了A。其实，该句中的a lot是用来修饰形容词的比较级more的，than引导的是比较状语从句。正确答案为D。
3. “Excuse me, are you _______? ”
“No, we are _______. ”
A. American, Englishman B. American, Germans
C. American, Germen D. Englishman, Americans
【解析】先从词性来看，American 和 German 既可以用作名词也可以用作形容词，用作名词时，其复数形式分别为Americans 和 Germans；选项中的Englishman只能用作名词，其复数形式是Englishmen。
先看第一空：如果单从Excuse me, are you _______?来看，要是填Englishman，就应该在其前加不定冠词，即说成Excuse me, are you an Englishman? 但是，根据答语中的 we are…可知，问句中的you 其实是指“你”，而是指“你们”，所以如果用Englishman，就应换成 Englishmen 才对。由此可排除选项D。
再看第二空：由于German的复数是Germans，不是Germen，由此可确定C错误；再根据we are…可知，其后若用名词Englishman，必须要用复数Englishmen，而不能是单数，所以排除A。
所以此题答数为B
10. A spaceship flies at about eleven kilometers _______ second.
A. / B. the C. a D. an
【解析】此题容易误选B。这是由于思维定势引起的，很多同学认为这里的second是序数词，前面应该用定冠词the修饰。其实，second是“秒”的意思。正确答案为C。
11. _______ India and China are of _______ same continent.
A. /; the B. The ; the C. /; / D. /; a
【解析】此题容易误选D。这是由于受汉语思维的影响造成的，因为译成汉语时这句话的意思是“印度和中国在同一个大洲”，汉语里说“同一个”，在英语中要说“the same”，这就是此题的陷阱所在。正确答案为A
12—You’re very ______, aren’t you? —Yes. Our team has won the game.
A. happy B. worried C. sad D. afraid
解答此题时你若只看问句，填任何一个答案都是正确的，当看到答句中的has won the match才知道只有答案A正确。
13—Your spoken English is much better! —______.
A. Oh, no B. You’re right C. thank you D. Not at all
当被别人称赞时，谦虚的中国人常说“不，哪里哪里”或“不，还差得远咧”等等，若按这种思维，很容易错选答案A或D；而西方人却是向对方表示感谢，所以答案是C。
14I hear someone _______at the door. Please go and see who _______ is.
A. knock, he B. knocking, he C. knock, it D. knocking, it
【解析】此题容易误选A或B。这是由于汉语思维的影响引起的。大家都知道hear sb. do sth. 意为“听见某人做某事”，hear sb. doing sth. 意为“听见某人正在做某事”，这样一来很多人就会选择A或B，因为后面“去看看他是谁”从汉语的角度来看是没有错的。其实，在英语中常常用it来指代身份(姓名、职业等)不详的人。有人敲门时我们常常用英语问“Who is it?”正确答案为D。
15. Lucy and I are classmates. We _______ in Class One.
A. all are B. are all C. both are D. are both
【解析】此题容易误选A或C。这里受到汉语思维的影响引起的，译成汉语正好是“我们都在一班”。表示两者都要用both，both一般放在be动词、情态动词或助动词之后，行为动词之前。正确答案为D。
16. There is _______ egg at home. Will you please get _______ for me, please?
A. no, some B. not, some C. not any, any D. not an, any
【解析】此题容易误选C或D。这是由于死记语法条文引起的。因为大家都知道some一般用于肯定句中，而any一般用于疑问句或否定句中，这样一来A和B首先就给排除了。其实，在表示请求或建议的疑问句，如Would you like…? / What would you like…? / Could you/ I …? / What about…? / How about…? / Would/ will you please…?等等疑问句中习惯上要用some而不用any。又因为no可以直接修饰名词，而not必须加上a/an或any之后才可以接名词。因此正确答案为A。
17. —A latest English newspaper, please!
—Only one left. Would you like to have _______, sir?
A. one B. this C. that D. it
【解析】此题容易误选A。这是由于忽略语境和思维定势造成的。这里是在询问是否有报纸卖，很多同学认为这里最后一句话的意思是“先生，你是否想要一份”。其实，由上文中的Only one left. 可知，只剩下一份报纸了，这暗示了购买者别无选择，只能买“它”了。正确答案为D。
18. —Don’t make any noise in the living room! My baby is sleeping.
—_______.
A. Sorry, I won’t B. It doesn’t matter
C. Excuse me, I’m wrong D. Certainly, I won’t
【解析】此题容易误选 C 或 D。一方面可能由于不知道 Excuse me. 与 Sorry. 的区别，而误选为C；另一方面可能由于不理解这一语境而误选为D。这里听话者是做错了事情，做错的事情首先应该说 Sorry 表示歉意，然后现表示不会再那样做了。正确答案为A。
19. —I haven’t seen Jack for three days, is he ill?
—_______. His mother told me that he was in hospital.
A. I am afraid so B. I hope not
C. I don’t expect D. I am afraid not
【解析】此题容易误选B或D。一般来说我们不希望别人生病，如果不注意语境的话，就很可能误选为B或D。由下文His mother told me that he was in hospital. 可知Jack可能生病了。I am afraid so. 意为“恐怕是这样的”，常用来表示一种不太肯定的语气。正确答案为A
20. —Excuse me. May I use your computer?
—_______. It’s broken.
A. Sure B. Yes, here you are
C. With pleasure D. I’m afraid not
【解析】此题易犯草率答题的错误而误选A或B。对于别人的请求大多数要用肯定回答，如果没有下文的It’s broken. 选择A或B那肯定是正确的。由下文的It’s broken. 可知，这里应该拒绝对方的请求，故正确答案为D。这里I’m afraid not. 意为“恐怕不行”。
21. —Can I get you something to drink, Mr Smith?
—_______. I am thirsty.
A. Here you are B. No, thank you
C. You’re welcome D. Yes, please
【解析】此题容易误选B。因为当对方问自己是否需要某物时可以说Yes, please. 表示接受，也可以说No, thank you. 表示拒绝。如果不注意看下文的I’m thirsty. 就很可能误选为B。正确答案为D。
22. —Your sweater is very beautiful, Joan!
—_______.
A. thank you all the same B. Not at all
C. Just so-so D. thank you
【解析】此题容易误选B或C。在汉语中受到别人的表扬或赞美时往往感到不好意思，要谦虚一番，受汉语思维的影响就很容易选择B或C。在英语中受到表扬或赞美时往往要欣然接受，向对方表示谢意。如果草率做题此题也很可能会误选为A。正确答案为D。
23. —What do you do? —_______.
A. I am thirteen B. I work hard
C. I’m fine D. I’m a student
【解析】此题容易误选B。What do you do? 所问的不是经常“做什么”，而是在询问对方的“职业”，它相当于What’s your job? 因此正确答案为D。
注意：以下句型的意思：What is he? (用来询问职业)他是干什么的？What does he do? (= What’s his job? ) (用来询问职业) What is he like? (用来询问长相或人品) 他长得怎么样？/他是怎样一个人？ How is he? (用来询问身体状况)他身体怎么样？How old is he? (用来询问年龄) 他多大了？
24. —Andy isn’t going out this evening, is she?
—_______. She has to stay at home to look after her sick mother.
A. Yes, she is B. No, she isn’t
C. Yes, she isn’t D. No, she is
【解析】此题容易误选C。答语应译作“是，她不出去”才对，因此受到汉语思维的影响此题就很可能选C，但是这不符合英语的习惯。其实，否定的疑问句回答与肯定的疑问句的回答方式是一样的，答案肯定的就用“Yes, + 肯定的省略句”；答案是否定的就用“No, +否定的省略句”。只不过否定疑问句的答语中Yes要译作“不”，No要译作“是的”，这一点与汉语有点错位。例如：你是一名学生，假如有人这样问你：Are you a student? / Aren’t you a student? / You are a student, aren’t you? / You aren’t a student, are you? 那么你的回答都应该是“Yes, I am.”。只不过应注意在回答第2和第4个问句时Yes要译作“不”。
25. —Hello. May I speak to Mr. Wang?
—Who’s calling, please.
—_______.
A. I’m Mr. Wang B. Mr. Wang is here
C. This is Mr. Wang speaking D. Mr. Wang is calling
【解析】此题容易误选A或B或D。这是受的汉语思维的影响，因为汉语中在电话时常常说“我是某人”时，但是英语中不说“I am… / … is here. ”而习惯上说“This is … (speaking). / Speaking. ”正确答案为C。
26. —I fell and hurt my leg just not.
—_______.
A. Be careful B. It doesn’t matter
C. I’m sorry to hear that D. Nothing serious
【解析】此题容易误选A或B或D。这里也很容易受到汉语思维的影响，因为平时对方告诉我们说他或她摔倒了，我们总会对他或她进行安慰说一些“小心点”，“没关系”等等之类的话。而在英语中听到对方诉说一些不幸的事情时往往要说“I’m sorry to hear that. / Bad luck!”之类的话表示同情或安慰，这一点与汉语的习惯不一样。正确答案为C。
27. —_______.
—thank you very much. I will.
A. Congratulations! B. Best wishes to you
C. Please say hello to your family. D. What a good wish to your family!
【解析】此题容易误选A或B。因为A和B两项都可以用thank you very much. 来回答，如果不注意后面的I will. ，那么选择A或B的可能性是非常大的。正确答案为C。Please say hello to your family. 意为“请代我向你的家人问好”。
28 Is there ______ food in the fridge？I’m hungry.
A. some B. any C. something D. anything
本题是考查不定代词的用法，从题干上可知C、D不作定语，应考虑A、B两个选项，这时就需要领会附加成分I’m hungry. 的含义，它的意思是“我饿了。”，言下之意希望冰箱里有食物，即希望肯定回答，故选A。
29 ______ have you been to Xi’an？
—Twice. (from www.zkenglish.com)
A. How soon B. How m any times
C. How often D. How long
本题主要是对疑问词的考查，由于A用于将来时态，D用于表段时间，本题只有在B、C中选择了。有的同学一见Twice就会选C，本题的关键也确实在Twice这个附加成分上，仔细分析Twice，它表示“两次”，并不是多久两次，故选B。
30 There are a lot ____ people today than yesterday.
A. of B. most C. / D. more
有的同学一看此题，就会认为选A，因为是固定搭配a lot of。如果我们仔细分析一下题干可知，此句有一连词than引导的比较状语从句，这是个比较结构，排除A、C项，B是最高级应排除，故答案理所当然应选D。本题的考查点应是副词a lot修饰比较级m ore，意为“多得多”。
31 Shanghai is larger than ____ city in New Zealand.
A. any other B. other C. all other D. any
此题是考查比较级句型，很多考生就容易误选A，因为“比较级＋than any other ＋名词”这一比较模式在学生的思维中已成定式，印象很深。可是新西兰这个国家与上海所在国家(中国)不是同一地理范围，上海不是与本国的城市相比，而是与它国的城市相比，不必排除“自身”这个比较对象。不必加other一词。故本题选D。
32 —Would you like some more fish？
—______, I’m full.
A. Yes, please B. No, thanks
C. No, I won’t have it D. Yes, I won’t to
本题考查英语的口语表达习惯，在西方国家，想接受或拒绝对方盛情时用“Yes，please.”或“No，thanks.”，由题意应选B。而很多学生受母语“我想要”或“不想”的影响，易误选C。
33 —You are a beautiful girl. —_____.
A. No，I am not beautiful B. thank you
C. Not at all D. I’m not so beautiful as you.
本题应选B。根据英美人士的习惯，当别人夸奖或赞美你时，你不应过分谦虚，而应该表示感谢以示礼貌和自信(尽管明知自己在此方面不行)，千万别受母语影响，说一些自谦的话而选A或C。
34I will ring you up when I ____ Wuhan tomorrow.
A. will reach B. reached C. reaches D. reach
本题考查的是动词时态，有些同学一见从句后有tom orrow，就选A，实际上在我们学习语法知识时有这样一条“如果主句是一般将来时态、情态动词加动词原形、祈使句时，由if引导的条件状语从句和when，until，be-fore，after，as soon as引导的时间状语从句用一般现在时代替一般将来时”。所以本题应选D。
35 He told m e that the sun ____ in the east.
A. rose B. had risen C. rises D. have risen
本题是考查动词的时态，有些同学认为当主句是过去式时，宾语从句应是与过去有关的各种时态，很容易选B。如果我们仔细分析一下that引导的宾语从句，就可知“太阳从东方升起”应是一种自然现象。我们都知道表述客观真理、自然现象和客观规律时，不受其他条件影响一律用一般现在时，故本题应选C。
36 The People’s Republic of China was founded.
A. on October 1, 1949 B. 1949, on October 1
C. in October 1, 1949 D. 1949, in October 1
(2) Which is ____, the moon or the earth？
A. big B. bigger C. biggest D. the biggest
显而易见，题1涉及历史知识“中华人民共和国建立于1949年10月1日”，根据这一历史知识应选A。题2涉及的是天文知识“地球与月亮哪个大”，两者相比用比较级，故本题选B。
37. 熟记语法知识，注意习惯用法
近年来，有的中考题淡化了语法知识考查，但记牢最基本的语法知识仍有利于我们理解题意和答题。
The farm ers are all busy ____ apples.
A. pick B. to pick C. picking D. to picking
根据语法知识，be busy的习惯用法是be busy后接动词-ing形式。故本题应选C。像这样的固定用法还有enjoy doing sth, keep(sb ／sth )doing sth, finish doing sth, can’t help doing sth, feel like doing sth, m ind doing sth, prerfer doing sth to doing sth 等等。

The nervous-looking young man had waited for a few moments outside the jeweler’s before he got enough courage to enter. He was warmly greeted by a young assistant. James felt a rush of blood to his face as he explained he would be bringing in his future wife to choose a birthday present. The assistant listened carefully and told him he’d better buy a necklace. He wasn’t used to buying jewellery and was a little worried about overspending. After some discussion as to a reasonable price and the type, the assistant showed him dozens of necklaces and helped him to choose. At last James chose one and left the shop promising to return at five o’clock. When, half an hour later than planned, James did return to the shop with his future wife Laura, the assistant acted as if she had never seen him before. When she was asked to show them some necklaces, she first brought out some inexpensive ones for them to choose, and then gave them the one she had prepared. A choice was soon made and they went away satisfied. James would certainly come back to buy what he wanted when he got married.

A large number of women in Western European countries wish that they were born men. The number is said as high as 60% in West Germany.
“Women often wish that they had the same chance as men have, and believe it’s still a men’s world,” said Dr James Holden, one of the scientists who did the study.
Anne Harper has a very good job for an international oil company. She also believes in “Women’s Liberation”. “I don’t wish that I were a man, ” she says, “and I don’t think many women do. But I do wish that people would stop looking down upon us women. At work, for example, we often do the work that men do but get paid less. There are still a lot of jobs that are usually the best ones and open only to men. If you are a man you have a much better chance of leading an exciting life. How many women pilots are there… or engineers or scientists?”

People who are hit by lightning and survive often have long-term effects. These may include memory loss, sleep disorders, muscle pain and depression.
Experts tell people to seek the safety of a building or a hard-top vehicle any time they hear thunder, even if it is not raining. They say lightning can strike as far as sixteen kilometers from any rainfall. Lightning can travel sideways. And at least ten percent of lightning happens without any clouds overhead that you can see.
People who are outdoors should make sure they are not the tallest thing around. Bend low to the ground, but do not lie down. And do not stand near a tree or any tall subject. Get away from water and anything made of metal. A car is safe, but do not touch any metal inside.
Safety experts say people in buildings should stay away from anything with wires or pipes that lead to the outside. The National Weather Service says if you plan to disconnect any electronic equipment, do so before the storm arrives. Do not use a wired telephone. Do not use water. All these can carry electricity.
Some people think a person struck by lightning carries an electrical charge (电荷) afterward. Experts say this is not true. It is safe to begin emergency treatment.
Each year about four hundred people in the United States are struck by lightning. Last year forty four people died. The average is close to seventy. The National Weather Service says that is more than the number of people killed by severe storms.

The United States is a large country. From the East Coast to the West Coast it is about 3, 000 miles wide. The Atlantic Ocean is on the East Coast and the Pacific Ocean is on the West Coast. Canada is the country to the north of the United States and Mexico is the country to the south. There are many rivers in the United States. The most important ones are the Mississippi River and the Missouri River in the central part of the country, and the Colorado and Columbia River in west. There are 50 states in the United States today.
The American people are of almost every race in the world. This is because of immigrations from abroad throughout American history. The population is now over two hundred million.

In the United States, it is not usual to telephone someone early in the morning. If you telephone early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. So it is with the telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call ring sleeping hours, he may think that it’ a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
In social life, time plays a very important part. In the USA guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party reaches them only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time is not the same in different cultures that treat time differently; being on time is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not on time, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the USA no one would think of keeping a business friend for an hour; it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late is expected to make a shout apology. It he is less than 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.
1．A call at midnight would mean_________.
A. the matter is less important
B. the matter is too difficult to handle
C. the matter requires immediate attention
D. it is a matter of life and death
2．According to the passage, time plays a very important part in_______.
A. everyday life B. private life

A. three or four days before the party date in all cultures
B. three or four days before the party date in some cultures
C. three or four days before the party date in the USA
D. at your chosen time

Napoleon agreed to plans for a tunnel (隧道) under the English Channel in 1802. The British began digging one in 1880. Neither tunnel was completed. Europe has had to wait until the end of the 20th century for the Channel Tunnel. After nearly two centuries of dreaming, the island of Great Britain is connected to Continental Europe for the first time since the Ice Age, when the two land masses moved apart.
On May 6, 1994, Britain's Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ and France's President Mitterrand carried out the official opening.

About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man can not see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green - a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called“cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of“rods” but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but no color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes (蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. y red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of </PGN0007B.TXT/PGN>the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible (看不见的) colors around.
1．Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?
A．Women are more careful.
B．There are few color-blind women.
C．Women are fonder of driving than men.
D．Women are weaker but quicker in thinking
2. This passage is mainly about ________.
A．color and its surprising effects
B．women being luckier than men
C．danger caused by color blindness
D．color blindness
3．According to the passage, with the help of the“cones”， we can ________.
A．tell orange from yellow
B．see in weak light
C．kill mosquitoes
D．tell different shapes
4．We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a ________. A．red light B．yellow light C．blue light D．green light

When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.

Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people on the island had a disease called beri?鄄beri. He was going there to try and find a cure.
At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (细菌) caused beri?鄄beri. He raised some chickens. He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate — refined white rice (精炼米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (维生素). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food.
Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills.
61. The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.
A. a medical treatment B. a kind of vitamin
C. a kind of germ D. a kind of rice
62. Christian Eijkman went to the island of Java to ______.

C ★★
America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
66. The writer of this passage must be ______.
A. an American B. a Chinese
C. a professor D. a student
67. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
68. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.
A. warmly welcomed at the airport
B. offered a ride to his home
C. treated hospitably at his home
D. treated to dinner in a restaurant
69. The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
A. strict with time B. serious with time
C. careful with time D. willing to spend time
70. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.
A. Friendships between Chinese
B. Friendships between Americans

The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:
“I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They can’t even understand a bit of music.”
“I’m never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.”
But, one younger musician said, “There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play. I’m also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.”
I’ve heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are.
Attitudes are important. Whether they’re positive or negative, they’re rubbing off on you. If you’re around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame (责怪) others, and you play the role of victim (受害者), chances are you will start to as well. So it’s time to take a look at the people you call “friends”.
This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard (标准) for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard.
Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it. Ask if they will help you get the work you’re looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.
71. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. A friend in need is a friend indeed
B. How to make friendship last for ever
C. You are who your friends are
D. Friends are the most important in one’s success

A. they’ll push you ahead

73. The musicians’ words at the beginning are written mainly to show ______.
A. the musicians’ living conditions are quite poor
B. people have poor taste in music
C. people have different attitudes towards the same thing
D. young people have greater chances of succeeding
74. By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7, you can ______.

Norm Pethrick, a 36-year-old man in Australia’s northern city Darwin, was praised on Thursday for jumping onto a crocodile’s back to save his wife Wendy at Litchfield National Park, a popular tourist spot southwest of Darwin, a local newspaper reported.
Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (扑), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater.
Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free.
Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (伤口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers.
“This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.
He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husband’s “quick and diligent actions”.
Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria (细菌) on the teeth of the crocodile.
56. This passage is most likely to be found in _____.
A. a travel guide B. a newspaper

There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.
Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.
Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.

English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.
However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.
And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.
71. According to the passage ______.
A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different things
B. there should be egg in an eggplant
C. pineapples are the apples on the pine tree
D. boxing rings should be round
72. Which of the following is the correct plural?
A. Beeth. B. Geese. C. Meese. D. Tooth.
73. Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning?
A. A wise man and a wise guy.
B. Overlook and oversee.
C. Quite a lot and quite a few.
D. Hot as hell and cold as hell.
