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）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B 、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

JINTAN, JIANGSU: The 20 students — 18 boys and 2 gi
rls —had a thousand reasons to be proud of themselves. They had just climbed their way to the top rung（阶梯）out of 4 million students taking part in the Fifth National Hua Luogeng Gold Cup Mathematics Contest（竞赛）on Tuesday evening. The 20 gold medal winners are all primary and middle school students under the age of 14. ‘Many of the problems are of college level and these pupils can figure them out. It is just unbelievable!’said a teacher from Guangdong province. Named after China's most famous mathematician, Hua Luogeng, the contest started in 1986,one year after his death. In less than 10 years, it has been recognized by the State Education Commission（国家教委） as the country's biggest and best contest of its kind.

36. This news story is mainly about________ .

　　A. when the contest started B. how the contest got its name

　　C. the 20 pupils who have won gold medals in the contest

　　D. the 5th National Hua Luogeng Gold Cup Mathematics Contest

37. This news story most probably appeared in a newspaper in ________. [来源:Z§xx§k.Com]

　　A. 1986 B. 1987 C. 1995 D. 1997

38. It can be inferred from the text that the teacher from Guangdong province ________.

　　A. felt proud of the gold medal winners B. wondered if the students were honest

　　C. thought that the problems were too difficult for the students

　　D. believed that the twenty winners could go to study at university

39. The underlined phrase ‘figure out’ in the text means_________ .

A. work out B. add up C. guess D. study

B

　　America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect （影响） American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying of America has made us a very different society— one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior（行为）is suitable （合适）at various ages. A pe
rson's age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health. There's no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school ,get a job, or stop working isn't as strong as it used to be. It doesn't surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the firs time. Public ideas are changing. Many people say, 'I am much younger than my mother - or my father - was at my age.' No one says ‘Act your age’ anymore. We've stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.

40.It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America_________ .

　　A. has made people feel younger B. has changed people's social position

　　C. has changed people's understanding of age

　　D. has slowed down the country's social development

41.The underlined word ‘one’ refers to_________.

　　A. a society B. America C. a place D. population

42.‘Act your age’ means people should_________.

　　A. be active when they are old B. do the right thing at the right age

　　C. show respect for their parents young or old

　　D. take more physical exercise suitable to their age

C

Students in many countries are learning English. Some of these students are small children. Others are teen-agers. Many are adults. Some learn at school, others by themselves. A few learn English by learning the language over the radio, on TV, or in film. One must work hard to learn another language.

Why do all these people want to learn English? It is difficult to answer this question. Many boys and girls learn English at school because it is one of their subjects required for study. They study their own language and maths and English: Some people learn it because it is useful for their work. Many people learn English for their work. Many people learn English for their higher studies, because at college or university some of their books are in English. Other people learn English because they want to read newspapers or magazines in English.

44.People learn English _______.

A. at school B. over the radio C. on TV D.
