61
this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to
62
, “ ‘You don’t say’ actually means ‘really!’ It is an

of surprise. Perhaps you don’t pay attention to English idioms.”

第四节 阅读理解 (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和D)中选出最佳选项。A
As we know, most of the material things in our daily life have to be bought with money. But money is not all powerful. Money can’t buy many things such as time and true love. There are 24 hours in a day. Sometimes when we are very happy, we wish that the period of happiness would last longer. But no matter what we do, or how much money we are willing to pay, we cannot make a day last longer than 24 hours. On the other hand, when we are unhappy, money cannot make the unhappy time pass away more quickly. True love is another thing which money cannot buy. Suppose we have someone who really loves us very much. Once he dies, he can give us no more love. Can our money raise him from death and make him love us as before? Here we can see very clearly that money cannot buy us love. Money can buy us diamond things, beautiful clothes, but never time and love. So money, after all, is not all powerful.
66. What does “powerful” mean in the passage?
A. strong
B. effective
C. great
D. active
67. According to the passage, it is quite impossible for you to buy ______.
A. true friendship
B. real diamond

D. an expensive car
68. Which of the sentences expresses the main idea of this passage?
A. Money cannot buy time and love.

B. beautiful
C. lovely
D. useful
B
We live in central Phoenix, near the canal. Every day I used to see a homeless old man and his dirty little dog hanging out down there.
I would tell my husband we should give him food for the little dog. It wouldn’t have been a problem; we have our own “mini farm” of animals! He would say “OK!” but then blow the idea off because of our business.
Being in Phoenix, Arizona, you can just imagine how hot it gets here, but his winter was really chilly! I had just come from KFC with take-out food for dinner. As I was turning by the canal, the man and his dog were sitting right there all bundled up(穿暖). Even the dog had a coat on! Not even thinking about it, I pulled into the parking lot along the canal and piled up a plate of chicken with all the fixings for the man and his little dog. I gave it to him with a soda and a bottle of water for the little dog. He said, “Thank you, sweetie. You are an angel.” And there were tears filling his eyes! I told him he was so welcome, and then went home.
When my husband dug into the KFC gag he asked, “Were you hungry, or what?” I told him what I did and he said, “Only you!” Then he told me I had done a good thing.
A few weeks later, we were walking along the canal and found the man walking to me, with his little dog. He asked whether I would mind adopting (收养) the dog. With tears in eyes, he said it had got too hard for him to care for the dog. He added that he was planning on heading to Washington State but his dog wouldn’t have been up to it, so he hoped to give it to me. “Only you! In this city, you are the only person I can believe in!”
Now, every time I watch and pat the puppy lying near the fireplace, I will recall the old man’s words and wish him good luck.

73. What did the author’s husband feel when she told him what she had done?
A. Thankful.
B. Delighted
C. Indifferent
D. Disappointed
74. Why did the old man hope to give the dog to the author?
A. Because he knew the author was also a dog lover.
B. Because the author was the person he could trust.

When Peng Liyuan stepped off the plane in Moscow, the whole world wanted to know who dressed the elegant(优雅的) first lady. The reporter gave away the secret—Ma Ke.
Peng Liyuan has been wearing Ma Ke's designs for more than a decade, a fact that was only highlighted recently when she was on her first state visit, accompanying her husband President Xi Jinping. The elegant and attractive Peng, formerly a popular singer, has been compared with the US’ first lady Michelle Obama and France’s Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, since stepping off the airplane in Moscow on March 22. Suddenly, everyone was curious to know more about the first lady’s wardrobe (衣柜).
Even so, Ma prefers a low-key way. “If you eat a tasty egg why would you want to see the hen?” she says of all the media attention.
Ma’s relationship with Peng began 10 years ago after a concert in Guangzhou when a reporter told Peng she knew the designer behind the label Exception de Mixmind. Peng asked for an introduction because she was a fan of Ma’s designs and had been wearing them for years.
The two naturally became friends. Ma says: “The painting reflects the painter, and clothes reflect both the designer and the wearer. Someone desires fame and wealth, or love and sympathy; what you have in your heart is reflected in the design. Those who don’t share my philosophy(哲学) won’t buy my clothes. Peng is a caring person, devoted to charity and environmental protection, which is exactly what I’m doing now.”
However, regardless of the brand, Peng’s support of Chinese labels has surprised millions of Chinese who favor foreign fashion brands.
“Instead she presented a vision of Chinese fashion, desiring to bring Chinese designers to the world stage,” says a western designer.
The first lady’s double-breasted coat and her black leather handbag aren’t available(可得到的)at any of Exception’s shops, though Exception’s physical stores do have seen a rising number of visitors.
76. The passage mainly discusses _________.
A. the designer of the first lady Peng Liyuan’s dress, Ma Ke
B. the friendship between Peng Liyuan and her designer
C. Peng Liyuan’s clothes on her first state visit
D. the reactions to Peng Liyuan’s first visit to Moscow
77. In the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 Ma Ke mentioned “an egg and the hen” to show _________.
A. it is hard to explain “Which came first, the egg or the hen?”
B. paying such great attention to her was unnecessary
C. the outcome was more important than the process
D. her dissatisfaction with the media attention on her dress
78. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. First ladies compete with each other whenever they are together.
B. Peng’s suits can be bought in Ma Ke’s clothes stores.
C. Ma Ke offered to design the first lady’s clothes through her friends.
D. Peng had liked Ma’s designs long before she got to know her .
79. In the passage, Peng Liyuan _________.
A. often reflects on what she has in her heart before choosing clothes
B. is sympathetic (有同情心) and has a strong environmental consciousness
C. always desires the exceptional charm of the brand
D. is knowledgeable in philosophy
80. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Peng wears the dress designed by a Chinese designer probably to support Chinese brands.
B. Many citizens found Peng Liyuan’s choice quite unexpected.
C. Black leather handbags like Peng’s are widely sold in bag stores in big cities.
D. After Peng Liyuan’s visit to Moscow Ma Ke’s clothes became more popular.

Dear Peter,
How is everything going? Recently I bought an e-reader and it is very useful.
The e-reader doesn’t use any paper and helps save resources. That means so many trees won’t be cut down. Besides, it’s able to store about 10,000 books that can be easily downloaded from the Internet. On the Internet resources are rich and there are many reading materials. What’s more, the e-reader is easy to carry around.
With an e-reader, we can fully enjoy reading just like in the library. So I strongly suggest you should buy one.
Yours
Li Hua

W: What makes you believe that?
M: A science book says, when lightning quickly beats the air, it will cause thunder.

M: Are you going to Helen’s birthday party on Friday evening?
W: I wouldn’t miss it for the world! It’s sure to be fun. She’s invited a lot of friends. Do you think everyone will be able to get into her house?
M: If everyone turned up, it would be very crowded. But a few said that they couldn’t go, so I think it should be OK.
W: Are you taking anything?
M: I’ve got her a birthday present and I’ll take a bottle of wine too.
W: That’s a good idea. She has bought plenty of food and drinks. It’s going to be a noisy party. I hope her neighbours don’t mind too much.
M: Helen gets on very well with her neighbours.I wouldn’t be surprised if they went to the party too.

To the firemen’s surprise, dropping a spoon may have saved Joy Horton’s life. The 73-year-old woman has been living alone. She was preparing some food in her western New York home on Lake Ontario on Monday morning. As she was washing something near the kitchen sink, the spoon she washed happened to drop onto the floor of her kitchen, so she bent down to pick it up. Just then her house exploded.
The explosion destroyed her home in the Wayne County town of western New York. Everything in the house was badly damaged, but Joy Horton wasn’t seriously injured. She crawled out from underneath the broken bricks and walked to her daughter’s home nearby to get help.
Fire officials said no people were injured besides Joy Horton in the explosion. Because Horton was bending down when the explosion happened, the kitchen sink and counter top helped keep the broken things from hitting her. Horton had only small injuries. The police haven’t found out what caused the explosion. They’re still looking into the cause.
