第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，共40分）
A graded reader is a book containing simplified languages used to help learners master the language. Readers come in different levels, from beginners to advanced. English learners need to choose a reader that is suitable for their level.
Why use readers? Lots of research shows that extensive (广泛的) reading improves all aspects of language learning, including vocabulary, speaking skills, fluency, writing skills and reading comprehension.
Reading is a way of learning English without classes or a teacher. It helps develop learner independence. And while reading graded readers, learners don't have to run to a dictionary because the language is at their level.
How do I get started? The entire class can read the same book or different books at different times.
How do I know the right level? If your class is all reading the same book, choose one that is appropriate for their level. If your students are reading different books, you can have a selection of books at different levels. In this case, don't worry too much about the level. A learner who is interested in detective stories might read a higher level book if the motivation is there.
How to read the book depends on students' age, motivation and class time available. Some classes like to read silently, others like to read aloud in small groups and some enjoy being read to by the teacher. Be sensitive to the class and ask for their opinions.
Some pre-reading activities are needed. Before students open a book, it is important to spark interest in the story and in the whole process of reading. For example, ask them to guess what the story is from cover, chapter titles and let students put them in the best order, or discuss the author.
During reading, choose a suitable chapter or chapters that can be broken down to make a comic strip (连环漫画). Or students select a part of the book to make into a radio play. Students can also become journalists and report on parts of the story. Choose a piece of action and have students write it up. Besides, students can role-play an interview with a character.
56. When do you think students can become journalists and report on parts of the story?
A. Before reading.
B. During reading.
C. During warming up.
D. Before a test.
57. The underlined word "appropriate" in the fifth paragraph probably means "________".
A. famous
B. suitable
C. ordinary
D. enjoyable
58. Who do you think the passage is written mainly for?
A. Students.
B. Parents.
C. Teachers.
D. Pupils.
59. From the passage, we can infer that _______.
A. readers can make classroom fun
B. reading can help develop learners dependence
C. some pre-reading activities are not needed
D. extensive reading improves all aspects of language learning
B
Brazil has become one of the developing world's great successes at reducing population growth — but mere by accident than design. While countries such as India have made joint efforts to reduce birth rates, Brazil has had better result without really trying, says George Martine at Harvard.
Brazil's population growth rate has dropped from 2.99% a year between 1951 and 1960 to 1.93% a year between 1981 and 1990, and Brazilian women now have only 2.7 children on average. Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 1990, an achievement that makes it the envy of many other Third World countries.
Martine puts it down to, among other things, soap operas and installment (分期付款) plans introduced in the 1970s. Both played an important, although indirect, role in lowering the birth rate. Brazil is one of the world's biggest producers of soap operas. Globo, Brazil's most popular television network, shows three hours of soaps six nights a week, while three others show at least one hour a night. Most soaps are based on wealthy characters living the high life in big cities.
"Although they have never really tried to work in a message towards the problems of reproduction (生育), they describe middle and upper class values — not many children, different attitudes towards sex, women working," says Martine. "They sent this image to all parts of Brazil and made people conscious of other patterns of behaviour and other values, which were put into a very attractive package."
Meanwhile, the installment plans tried to encourage the poor to become consumers. "This led to an enormous change in consumption patterns and consumption was incompatible (不能共存的) with unlimited reproduction," says Martine.
60. According to the passage, Brazil has cut back its population growth ________.
A. by educating its citizens
B. by careful family planning
C. by developing TV programmes
D. by chance
61. According to the passage, many Third World countries ___________.
A. haven't paid enough attention to birth control
B. would soon join Brazil in controlling their birth rate
C. have great difficulty controlling their population
D. make no use of TV plays in family planning
62. Soap operas have helped in lowering Brazil's birth rate because _________.
A. they keep people sitting long hours watching TV
B. they have gradually changed people's way of life
C. people are drawn to their attractive package
D. they popularize government's birth control measures
63. What is Martine's conclusion about Brazil's population growth?
A. The increase in birth rate will raise consumption.
B. The desire for consumption helps to reduce birth rate.
C. Consumption patterns and reproduction patterns are incompatible.
D. A country's production is limited by its population growth.
C
Over time, the Declaration of Independence has deeply affected American history. Phrases from the document such as "all men are created equal" quickly took on a life of their own or were applied to groups that the authors never expected. Blacks quickly used this language to challenge slavery in the United Sates. The ideal of equality led Northern states to free slaves in the 1780s, 1790s, and early 1800s. Black and white abolitionists (废奴主义者) used the ideal that all men were created equal to attack slavery in the South before the Civil War. And civil fights supporters gathered behind Jefferson's words in their fight against racism in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1848 the delegates (代表) to the Seneca Falls women's rights conference proclaimed that "all men and women are created equal", and the 20th century feminist (女权主义者) did the same.
Other groups have focused on the document's defence of the right to rebel against an unjust government. The Declaration of Independence had a deep effect on the French Revolution; its influence was strong in the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, adopted by the National Assembly of France in 1789. In the 19th century the principles of the declaration were adopted by various Latin American movements fighting for independence from European colonial powers. The declaration influences more recent struggles for national identity: Vietnamese Communist leader Ho Chi Mink, for example, used the American document as one of the basic principles behind his fight to establish an independent and unified Vietnam.
The document itself continues to be an important symbol for the American people. Today, each page of the Declaration of Independence is protected. Over one million Americans view the document each year in Washington, D.C., where it is displayed along with the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights.
64. What can be inferred about the 20th century feminists?
A. They fought against racism, using the Declaration of Independence.
B. They defended women's rights by referring to "men and women are created equal".
C. They held conferences to discuss the Declaration of Independence.
D. They proclaimed the Independence of Women’s Rights.
65. The passage gives the example of the French Revolution to show that _________.
A. the Declaration of Independence ensures people's rights to supervise (监督) the government
B. the Declaration of Independence ensures the equality for all men
C. French people and the U.S. are closely minted
D. the French Revolution had a strong influence on many Latin American Movements
66. From the last paragraph, we can see that today the Declaration of Independence _________.
A. has had many of its pages lost
B. is only available in New York
C. is still supported by the American people D. has had many changes
67. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The Declaration of Independence and the French Revolution.
B. The Declaration of Independence' s influence on other countries.
C. The application of the Declaration of Independence by different people.
D. The different purposes of the Declaration of Independence intended by its authors.
