第二部分 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）

阅读下面四篇文章，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching, and I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly（固执地）and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.

“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”

I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?

In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.

When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”

“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.

“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.

“The artwork?” I was puzzled.

The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.

What a relief!

21. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling that morning?

A. Upset. B. Nervous. C. Satisfied. D. Cheerful.

22. What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?

A. The laughing assistant of the dentist.

B. The dentist’s being as busy as the other dentists.

C. The surroundings of the dentist’s office.

D. The dentist’s agreeing to treat her at very short notice.

23. What did the author learn from her experience most probably?

A. Strike while the iron is hot.

B. Put oneself in others’ shoes.

C. Have a good word for one’s friend.

D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

B

An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son. Suddenly a crow(乌鸦) rested on their window.

The father asked his son, “What is this?”

The son replied “It is a crow.”

After a few seconds the father asked his son the second time, “What is this?”

The son said, “Father, I just now told you; it is a crow.”

After a little while, the old man again asked his son the third time, “What is this?”

At this time some expression of anger was felt in the son’s tone when he said to his father, “It is a crow, a crow.”

A little later, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “What is it?”

This time the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? Although I have told you so many times? It is a crow. Are you not able to understand this?”

A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old diary which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. The following words were written in it:

Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa. When a crow was sitting on the window, my son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question again and again for 23 times. I did not at all feel angered. I rather felt affection for my innocent(单纯的) child.

So ……

If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but be kind to them. Be considerate to your parents.

Beginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made; your future begins here.

However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environment. Many of us can be easily defeated by the details of running a well-balanced life. While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you.

The following you may find useful about life on campus:

? Plan well. There are so many new things to do at a new college or university. Give yourself time to make new friends and became familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there. Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.

? If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now (like a day timer, a computer data book), get one. Most of all, don’t depend on your memory.

? Don’t miss the guidelines. The restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student’s handbook. Consider them well-balanced food for thought. What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can / can’t you do in your student residence（住处）? Who has the right for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?

? Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of your bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table. Consider this — you are paying thousands of dollars for your course. You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.

? Build your identity. This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do. Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas. Do not be afraid of the beyond. This is learning to make good choices.

28. What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To offer advice on college life.

B. To explain why college life is exciting.

C. To describe the importance of college life.

D. To persuade you to go to college.

29. According to the passage, why is it exciting to begin college life?

A. Because you will have more freedom at college.

B. Because you will no longer be afraid of the beyond.

C. Because you prepare for your future career and life there.

D. Because professors there will provide you with many new ideas.

30. The underlined word “know-how” refers to _________.

A. an understanding of college communities

B. practical knowledge concerning college life

C. college halls where rules and regulations are presented

D. an environment completely different from the one you’re used to
