　　阅读理解（满分分）

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

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

　　A. Upset

　　B. Nervous

　　C. Satisfied

　　D. Cheerful

　　42. 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.

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

　　A. Strike while the iron is hot

　　B. Put oneself in other’s shoes

　　C. Have a good word for one’s friend D. A friend in need is a friend indeed

　　B

　　George Gershwin, born in 1898, was one of America’s greatest composers. He published his first song when he was eighteen years old. During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.

　　Many of Gershwin’s songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City. These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s. Many of his songs have remained popular as ever. Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way梖rom jazz to country.

　　sIn the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music. Could jazz, some people asked, be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music. Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time, he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.

　　In 1928, Gershwin went to Paris. He applied to study composition（作曲）with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger, but she rejected him. She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style. While there, Gershwin wrote An American in Paris. When it was first performed, critics（评论家）were divided over the music. Some called it happy and full of life, to others it was silly and boring. But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States. It still remains one of his most famous works.

　　George Gershwin died in 1937, just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages. People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.

　　44. Many of Gershwin’s musical works were ________.

　　A. written about New Yorkers

　　B. composed for Paul Whiteman

　　C. performed in various ways

　　D. played mainly in the countryside

　　45. What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris?

　　A. He changed his music style

　　B. He studied with Nadia Boulanger

　　C. He argued with French critics D. He created one of his best works

　　46. What do we learn from the last paragraph?

　　A. Many of Gershwin’s works were lost

　　B. The death of Gershwin was widely reported

　　C. A concert was held in memory of Gershwin

　　D. Brain cancer research started after Gershwin’s death

　　47. Which of the following best describes Gershwin?

　　A. Talented and productive

　　B. Serious and boring

　　C. Popular and unhappy

　　D. Friendly and honest

　　C

　　We’ve reached a strange—some would say unusual—point. While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization（WHO）, more people now die from being overweight, or say, from being extremely fat, than from being underweight. It’s the good life that’s more likely to kill us these days.

　　Worse, nearly 18 million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight. What’s going on?

　　We really don’t have many excuses for our weight problems. The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by public-health campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting through梪p to a point.

　　HIn the 1970s, Finland, for example, had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause. Not any more. A public-health campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 percent over the past three decades.

　　Maybe that explains why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001 and 2005, and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body. That has become a sort of fashion. No wonder it ranks as the world’s most body-conscious country.

　　We know what we should be doing to lose weight梑ut actually doing it is another matter. eBy far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise. More than half of us admit we lack willpower.

　　Others blame good food. They say: it’s just too inviting and it makes them overeat. Still others lay the blame on the Americans, complaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much American-style fast food.

　　Some also blame their parents梩heir genes. sBut unfortunately, the parents are wronged because they’re normal in shape, or rather slim.

　　It’s a similar story around the world, although people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight. Parents are eager to see their kids shape up. Do as I say梟ot as

　　I do.

　　48. What is the “strange” point mentioned in the first sentence?

　　A. Overweight issue remains unresolved despite WHO’s efforts

　　B. Starvation is taking more people’s lives in the world

　　C. WHO report shows people’s unawareness of food safety

　　D. The good life is a greater risk than the bad life

　　49. Why does the author think that people have no excuse for being overweight?

　　A. A lot of effective diet pills are available

　　B. They have been made fully aware of its dangers

　　C. Body image has nothing to do with good food

　　D. There are too many overweight people in the world

　　50. The example of Finland is used to illustrate ________.

　　A. the cause of heart disease

　　B. the effectiveness of a campaign

　　C. the fashion of body shaping

　　D. the history of a body-conscious country

　　51. Which would be the best title for the passage?

　　A. Actions or Excuses?

　　B. Overweight or Underweight?

　　C. WHO in a Dilemma

　　D. No Longer Dying of Hunger

　　D

　　Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.

　　However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.

　　This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.

　　When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.

　　Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.

　　52. Paragraph I mainly talks about ________.

　　A. the reasons for success

　　B. the meaning of success

　　C. the standards of success

　　D. the importance of success

　　53. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word that refers to ________.

　　A. being good at something

　　B. setting a practical goal

　　C. putting in more time

　　D. succeeding in life

　　54. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ________.

　　A. one tends to enjoy his work

　　B. work makes one feel pain

　　C. one gives up his work easily

　　D. it takes a lot of time to succeed

　　55. What is the main theme of the passage?

　　A. Having a goal is vital to success

　　B. Being good is different from being great

　　C. One cannot succeed without time and practice

　　D. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success

　　E

　　Forgiveness

　　To forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.

　　56

　　Try the following steps:

　　Calm yourself.

　　57

　　You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.

　　Don’t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way.

　　58

　　Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.

　　Take the control away from your offender（冒犯者）. Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who caused you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.

　　59

　　If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.

　　Don’t forget to forgive yourself.

　　60

　　But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don’t do it.

　　A. Why should you forgive?

　　B. How should you start to forgive?

　　C. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.

　　D. Try to see things from your offender’s angle.

　　E. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.

　　F. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.

　　G. If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.
