三．阅读理解(共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分)

A

“Linda, if beating yourself up were an Olympic sport, you’d win a gold medal!”

Annabel, my close friend, stunned（使…震惊）me with that frank observation after I told her how I had mishandled a situation with a st
udent in a third-grade class where I was substituting（代替）. “I should never have let him go to
the boy’s room without a pass! It was my fault he got into trouble with the hall monitor! I’m so stupid!”

My friend burst out laughing, and then made her “Olympic” comment. After a brief period of reflection I had to admit that she was right. I did put myself down an awful lot. Why, just during the previous day I had called myself “a slob” for having some papers spread out on my desk, “ugly” when I left the house without makeup and “an idiot” when I left the house for an emergency substitute job without my emergency lesson plan.

In a more reflective tone, Annabel said, “I once took a workshop at church where the woman in charge had us list all the mean things we say about ourselves.” [来源:Zxxk.Com]

“How many did you have on your list?” I asked.

“Fifteen,” she confessed. “But then the teacher said, ‘Now turn to the person next to you and say all the items on your list as if you were speaking to that person!’ ”

My jaw dropped，“What did you do?”

“Nothing. Nobody did. We all just sat there, until I said, ‘I could never say these things to anyone else!’ ”

“And our teacher replied, ‘Well, if you can’t say them to anyone else, then don’t ever say them to yourself!’ ”

My friend had a point. I would never insult a child of God---and I’m God’s child, too!

God, today let me be as kind to myself as I would be to another of Your children.

1. What does Annabel mean by the first sentence of the passage?

A. The writer is a good athlete. B. The writer scolds herself too much.

C. She is encouraging the writer. D. A gold medal is not a big deal.

2. What does the writer intends to tell us through the second and third paragraphs?

A. She has low self-esteem over s
ome small things.

B. She often makes serious mistakes in daily life.

C. She is a third-grade teacher.

D. She cares too much about her
appearance.

3. We can infer that the underlined word “slob” might be _____.

A. something untidy B. someone dangerous C. something dirty D. someone lazy

4. What can we learn about Annabel?

A. She used to put herself down a lot.

B. She often goes to chu
rch.

C. She was in charge of a workshop.

D. She used to be too shy to talk to others.

5. What does the writer mean by the last sentence of the passage?

A. She is ready
to turn to God for help.

B. She will be kind to all children.

C. She won’t insult(侮辱) herself as well as others.

D. She is willing to be a child of God.

A new report says the number of foreign students at colleges and universities in the United States increased by three percent last year. This has been the first obvious increase since 2001.

American schools last fall had 583,000 foreign students. The record is 586,000. That was set in 2002 after many years of gains. But after that the numbers fell. The terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001 led to more visa (签证) requirements. Now stronger efforts are being made to get more foreign students to study in the United States.

China remained in second place in front of South Korea but behind India, which sent almost 84,000 students last fall. The number of Japanese fell sharply by nine percent, although it remained in fourth place.

There were three percent drops from Indonesia and Kenya, the only African country in the top
twenty last year. But there were obvious increases from Saudi Arabia, Nepal and Vietnam. The number of Saudi students more than doubled, rising to nearly eight thousand.

For a sixth year, the University of Southern California in Los Angeles had the most foreign students. Columbia University in New York was second. Other schools in the top five were New York University, the University of Illinois and Purdue University.

Unlike American students in other countries, who often choose history and language study, the leading area of study in the USA was business and management. Second was engineering.

The new report also says more than 220,000 Americans studied in other countries. That was during the 2005-2006 school year. It was a record number, and an increase of eight and a half percent from the year before. But only five percent of them stayed for a full year.

1. After 2002, the number of foreign students in the USA fell mainly because ____ .

A. Americans were wo
rried that foreign students might attack them

B. few American universities welcomed stude
nts from abroad

C. their own countries could offer them a better education

D. it was harder for foreign students to get permission to study in the USA

2. Which of the following Asian countries has the largest number of students studying in the USA?

A.
