第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
In order to know a foreign language completely, four things are necessary. First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence and without hesitation (犹豫). Thirdly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar. There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must “Learn through use”. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can.
56. The most important things to learn a foreign language are
.
A. understanding and speaking
B. hearing, speaking, reading and writing
C. writing and understanding
D. memorizing and listening
57. Someone hears and writes English very well, but he speaks it very badly. This is because
.
A. he doesn’t understand the language when he hears it spoken
B. he doesn’t have a good memory
C. he always remember lists of words and their meanings
D. he often hesitates to practise speaking it
58. One can never learn a foreign language well only by
.
A. much practice
B. studying the dictionary
C. learning through use
D. using the language
B
Having friends may well keep you healthier and help you deal with stress better. Some studies show that people with close friends have a greater ability to fight disease than people who are alone.
Place friendship in the first place. Find the time to be with friends even if it means letting the lawn go unmowed or the dishes unwashed for a while. When you can’t get together, use the phone to keep in touch.
Open up to close friends. Keeping a deep friendship requires a level of “heartfelt” intimacy (亲密).Don’t be afraid to express your inner fears and disappointments. Listen to your friends when they have problems，but offer advice only when it’s wanted. Help raise friends’ selfesteem(自尊) when they are sad about a job loss, or other such events.
Have different friends for different activities, such as going to the movies，singing in a choir，and joining in a bowling league.
Don’t wait for a friend to ask . When a friend has the flu，offer to go to the store or drive his or her children to their afterschool activities.
Never take a friendship for granted. Like a good marriage，friendship needs care and patience. Become a joiner. Find a group that matches your interests.
Talk to strangers. Conversations started in museums, laundry rooms，or bookstores can lead to firm friendship.
Enroll in an adulteducation course. A classroom is an ideal place to meet others with similar interests.
6. People with close friends have a
ability to fight disease than people who are alone.
A. less
B. greater
C. poorer
D. little

书面表达：
听力录音稿
( Text 1)
W: Do you go to school by bus?
M: No, never. I usually go on my bike. But if it rains, my father drives me there.
W: I usually go by bus, but sometimes when there’s heavy traffic, I will take the subway.
(Text2)
W: Would you like to visit Alice with me after school? She’s been sick for two days.
M: Well, I’d have to bring my little sister, Mary.
W: That’s no problem.
(Text3)
W: Do you really need to leave now? It’s still early.
M: Thank you, but I’ve got to get up early tomorrow morning. I had a wonderful time tonight, though.
W: Me, too. Be sure to give my best wishes to your wife.
(Text4)
M: Why are you going to Boston?
W: I’m going there to see my grandparents. My parents and I don’t live with them, so they sometimes get lonely. I usually visit them twice a year.
(Text5)
W: Don’t be upset. Nobody is perfect. Everybody makes mistakes. Mistakes can even make you do things better when you learn from them.
M: Thank you very much for trying to make me feel better. You’re so nice.
(Text6)
W: Wow, what a nice bike!
M: Thank you. I just bought it.
W: Why did you get it?
M: Riding a bike is better than driving a car in this city.
W: That is a good point. How much was it?
M: $ 80 . They are selling them down the street three blocks away.
W: 80 bucks, huh? That’s not very expensive.
M: Yeah, I think it’s a good investment. It will save me a lot of money on gas, too.
W: That’s great. Well, I have to go to work. See you later.
(Text7)
W: Good afternoon, sir. Can I help you?
M: Yes. I have reserved a double room here.
W: What’s your name, please?
M: My name is Neil Brown.
W: Okay, just a second, please. Yes. A double room for three nights.
M: That’s right. Is the room ready?
W: Yes, it’s ready. How will you be paying for the room, sir?
M: With my credit card.
W: Very good, sir. If I could have your card for a moment… Here’s the key. Your room number is 309.
M: Thank you. Where’s the elevator?
W: The elevator is on your left. Have a nice stay.
M: Thanks.
(Text 8)
W: I’m lost! Is this the way to the China International Trade Center? I’m going to see my sister who lives nearby. Can you help me?
M: Certainly. Walk down this street through the first intersection, and then turn left at the second corner. You will see the No. 3 bus stop on your left. That bus will take you right there.
W: Is that the quickest way?
M: That is probably the quickest and cheapest way to get there from here.
W: Is it possible to get a bus right from here?
M: I’m afraid there aren’t any direct buses from here. Even though there are stops at almost every block, the buses here do not go in that direction. You would have to change buses at least twice.
W: All right. Thank you.
M: You’re welcome. By the way, I suggest that you take the subway next time. It might be more expensive than the bus, but it is certainly the easiest way to get around this city.
(Text 9)
M: Can I help you?
W: Yes, please. Could you show me that overcoat displayed on the shelf?
M: Sure. It’s the latest fashion and the design comes in five colors and all sizes. I think you should try the purple one. It’s a beautiful color and it would look great on you. The fitting room is over there.
W: Thank you… well, it feels a little tight in the waist. Do you have this in a larger size?
M: Of course, try this one on … oh, it’s beautiful! It looks as if it were made for you. It is only 880 yuan.
W: Oh, dear, that’s too expensive.
M: Madam, look at the quality and the style. It’s worth the price.
W: How about 400 yuan?
M: You must be joking. No one would sell such a nice overcoat at such a low price.
W: But 880 yuan is a lot more than I wanted to pay. Can you give me a better price?
M: Well, it’s already a bargain, but if you really like it, I suppose I could let you have it for 600 yuan. But this is my lowest price.
W: OK. I’ll take it.

Dave Carter is my best friend. We met when we were five years old because our parents were friends and we went to the same school. He works in a different city now, so I only see him on weekends and during the holidays. He’s important to me because he knows me so well. We laugh a lot together and we enjoy the same things: football, going to bars… the usual staff. When I’m feeling down or when I need to talk to somebody, I can always call him. Recently, I was in trouble with my girlfriend and he was a big help—he’s really good listener. He just let me speak my mind while he listened. But he isn’t perfect! He’s always late and he never apologizes! The last time I saw him was last weekend. We arranged to meet at four o’clock to play football, and he arrived at half past six! It was nearly dark! Oh, well, nobody’s perfect, right? He’s still a really good friend.
