第三部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)

第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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。

A

One of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admit one's mistakes.It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like “I was wrong about that，”and it is even harder to say，“I was wrong，and you were right about that.”

I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago.He told me he had been the manager of a certain grocery store in the neighborhood where I grew up，and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons (箱子)．Then he related an incident and I began to remember clearly the incident he was describing.

I was about eight years old at the time，and I had gone into the store with my mother to do the weekly grocery shopping.On that day，I must have found my way to the dairy (乳品的) food department where the incident took place.

There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there was an impressive display of eggs in dozen and half-dozen cartons.The cartons were stacked(堆放) three or four feet high.I must have stopped in front of a display to admire the stacks.Just then a woman came by pushing her grocery cart and knocked off the stacks of cartons.For some reason，I decided it was up to me to put the display back together，so I went to work.

The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened.When he appeared，I was on my knees examining some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken，but to him it looked as though I was the criminal.He severely scolded me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs.I protested(抗议)my innocence and tried to explain，but it did no good.Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident，obviously the manager did not.

51．The author was ________ when he wrote this article.

A．about 8　　　　　　　　 B．about 18

C．about 23 D．about 15

52．Who should have been blamed for knocking off the stacks of cartons?

A．The author. B．The manager.

C．The woman. D．The author's mother.

53．When the manager scolded him，the author ________.

A．was frightened and cried

B．felt the manager was right

C．did not say anything

D．tried to explain

54．It can be inferred that the author ________.

A．regrets arguing with the manager for what he didn't do

B．has forgiven the manager for what he did to him fifteen years ago

C．would like to tell people never to be fooled by an egg sale

D．expects the woman to say sorry to him for the mistake she made

Rachel Carson，a well-known nature author in America，was happiest writing about the strength and stability of natural systems.Her books mainly described the inter connectedness of nature and all living things.

Completing Silent Spring took Carson four years.First published in The New Yorker in June 1962，the book alarmed readers across America.It described how DDT entered the food chain and accumulated (堆积) in the fatty tissues of animals，including human beings，and caused cancer and genetic damage.

Carson begins by describing exactly these ef
