第三部分 : 阅读理解(共20小题 , 每下题2分,计40分)
阅读下面短文 , 然后从每题所给的 A , B , C , D四个选项中选出最佳答案 .
(A)
Language learning begins with listening.Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners.Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child.Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.
Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties.It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on.But since these can’t be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language.It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store.This self-imitation(模拟)leads on to deliberate(有意的)imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people.The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.
It is a problem we need to get out teeth into.The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world.Thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes.Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself, I doubt, however whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds .
56. Before children start speaking _______.
A.they need equal amount of listening
B.they need different amounts of listening
C.they can’t understand and obey the adult’s oral instructions
D.they are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructions
57. Children who start speaking late _______.
A.may have problems with their listening
B.probably do not hear enough language spoken around them
C.usually pay close attention to what they hear
D.often take a long time in learning to listen properly
58. A baby’s first noises are _______.
A.an expression of his moods and feelings
B.signs that he means to tell you something
C.an imitation of the speech of adults
D.an early form of language
59. The speaker implies_______.
A.parents can never hope to teach their children new sounds
B.children no longer imitate people after they begin to speak
C.children who are good at imitating learn new words more quickly
D.even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitating
(B)
The interview has been going on for about 20 minutes and everything seems to be going well.Then, suddenly, the interviewer asks an unexpected question, “Which is more important, law or love?”
Job applicants in the West increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this.And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.
Employers want people who are skilled, enthusiastic and devoted.So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicant will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are.In response, employers are increasingly using the questions which try and show the applicant’s true personality.
The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called the Kiersey Temperament Sorter.It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems, rather than what they know.This is often called aptitude (天资)test.
According to Mark Baldwin of Alliance, many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult.“When a Chinese fills out an aptitude test, he or she will think there is a right answer but they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.”
This is sometimes called the prisoner’s dilemma (窘境).Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest, but they fail because they don’t understand what the interviewer is looking for.Remember that in an aptitude test, the correct answer is the honest answer.
60. What is the purpose of the passage?
A.To give a piece of advice for job interviewees.
B.To tell you how to deal with job interviews.
C.To advise you how to find a good job.
D.To describe an aptitude test.
61. Now employers want to hire workers ________.
A.who know much more than others
B.who will work harder than others
C.who are able to solve the problems
D.who are better educated than others
62. According to the writer, in an aptitude test, Chinese job applicants should ________.
A.not tell the truth B.offer a complete answer
C.learn to tell what they really think D.find out what the examiner wants to know
63. From the passage we know that ________.
A.job applicants are always asked such questions
B.applicants should not act as cleverly as possible
C.more Chinese applicants fail to find a job
D.aptitude test is becoming world-wide popular
(C)
People often talk as if shyness is a disease or mental condition that can be cured.I prefer to think of it as an emotional disability.It’s something we are born with and something we carry with us in our entire lives.There are too many people, however, who seem to be determined to find some way of doing away with their shyness.In my opinion, it’s a waste of time.I don’t mean that we should do nothing about it; quite the contrary, I think we need to separate the basic fact of our shyness from our ability to take part in a social environment.
Look at one of the most famous shy people of them all, Johnny Carson.This man is painfully shy, yet for decades he made a living talking and associating with different people every night, in front of a national audience.Carson has never done away with his shyness, but he has successfully found a way to deal with it to the extent that he could be, not just a talk show host, but a legend among talk show hosts.Look also at Sally Fields, who has recently admitted her problem with shyness.This is a woman who has appeared in many films, TV shows and interviews, yet in her early years she was so shy that she turned down a lunch invitation from Jane Fonda because she was terribly afraid of meeting her.
I guess that our shyness is there because each of us is born with some insecurity and this insecurity prevents us from reaching out to others the way people with a more open personality do.As we grow up and become adults, we allow our social skills to grow and develop.But we are still stuck in kindergarten or elementary school or wherever it was when our shyness took root in our soul.
64. In the author’s view, shyness can be explained as ________.
A.a not very normal mental condition
B.a disease that can be easily cured
C.something we pick up after birth
D.a kind of emotional disability
65. Which of the following is TRUE about Johnny Carson?
A.He has dealt with shyness very successfully.
B.He has done away with his shyness carefully.
C.He is described as a hero in some legend books.
D.He failed to become a good talk show host.
66. The passage tells us that Sally Fields was ________.
A.proud all the time B.close to Jane Fonda
C.shy in her early years D.impolite when young
67. The author thinks that our shyness is there because ________.
A.we are not open enough
B.we don’t feel secure at heart
C.we try to reach out to others all the time
D.we lack some social skills
(D)
Recently, in the hope of earning both money and social experience, I became a door-to-door salesman.
I once read a saying: “If somebody wants something of yours, you will be treated as warmly as spring, but if they don’t, you may be treated as coldly as winter.” You may consider this an exaggeration (夸张), but if you are a salesman, it is clearly correct.
You would never have found it to be so true if you hadn’t been a salesman.You needn’t stand doubtful looks and unfriendly comments; you needn’t listen to something completely wrong and nod to say that it was quite right; you needn’t worry about being refused time after time; you needn’t always keep patience and a smile; you needn’t repeat the same sentences over and over again; you needn’t talk to somebody you dislike…
I did this work for a month, then I decided to give it up.Apart from the reasons above, I found I was paying too much attention to the job and thus sacrificing my study time.The latest test result proved that my grades were getting worse.
Even worse, I hadn’t enough time to join my classmates in college activities.Sometimes I felt lonely and unhappy because of both my study and my part-time job.Now I don’t think it is worth doing such a thing for even though I was earning money it came at great cost.
Newspapers and magazines often publish stories about excellent students who do part-time work while also keeping high scores in class.But according to my experience, part-time work can have some strong negative influences on study.
Most students don’t view the relationship between study and work correctly.In my opinion, if it isn’t a must for financial reasons, students should be careful about taking up a part-time job.
68. From the text, we can tell that the writer is _____.
A.an unemployed man B.a middle-school student
C.a college student D.a door-to-door salesman
69. Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word “sacrificing”?
A.losing B.using C. wasting D.getting
70. In the writer’s opinion, ______.
A.part-time jobs had good effect upon students’ study
B.part-time jobs would be good for every college student
C.it was hard to deal with the relationship between study and work correctly
D.to do a part-time job was unnecessary for most of the college students
71. What would be the best title for the text?
A.Part-time Jobs Are Useful
B.Part-time Jobs Can Cost Dear
C.Students shouldn’t Take Part-time Jobs
D.Part-time Jobs Are Important to Many Students
(E)
BEUING (Associated Press 美联社) — China has a growing middle class, a tradition (传统) of expecting education and 21 million new babies every year.Selling educational toys should be easy.
While China may be the world’s biggest toy maker, many of the best are exported (出口).Department stores here do not have enough high quality toys.It is said that the demand for educational toys is low.
A US company, Baby Care, is trying to change that with a new way to sell toys in China.
Baby Care works basically together with doctors in Beijing hospitals.People who join the company’s “mother club” can get lectures and newsletters on baby and child development at no extra cost, if they agree to spend 18 dollars a month on the company’s educational toys and childcare books.
“We want to build a seven-year relationship with those people,” said Matthew J.Estes, Baby Care’s president.“It starts during pregnancy (孕期), when the anxiety and needs are highest.” Baby Care works on a one-to-one basis.Doctors, nurses, and teachers paid by Baby Care advise parents, explain toys that are designed for children at each stage of development to age six.
Baby Care opened its first store in China last June in a shopping center in central Beijing and another near Beijing Zoo.It plans to have 80 stores in China within six years.
It is a new model for China and develops a market in young children’s education and health that no other companies are in.
72. What do the first two paragraphs mainly tell us?
A.Educational toys and foreign toy markets.
B.Problems with China’s toy market and education.
C.Reasons for pushing sales of educational toys in China.
D.Baby population and various kinds of toys made in China.
73. Which of the following is a fact according to the passage?
A.Club members buy Baby Care products for free child care advice.
B.Doctors in Beijing help in making Baby Care products.
C.Parents are encouraged to pay $ 18 for club activities.
D.Baby Care trains Chinese doctors at no extra cost.
74. Baby Care is developing its business in China by ________.
A.opening stores in Beijing hospitals
B.setting up children’s education centers
C.offering 18-month courses on child care
D.forming close relationships with parents
75. Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the passage?
A.Mothers’ Club in China. B.Baby Care and Doctors.
C.American Company Model. D.Educational Toys in China.

Dear Mayor,
I am a middle-school student . I’m writing to tell you about the traffic problem facing us .
Our school is located near the main street -----Zhongyuan Road , and many students have to cross the street before entering the schoolyard . During the rush hour we have to thread our way between the moving cars and buses , which is very dangerous . In order to make sure of the safety , many parents have to send and pick up their children to and from school every day . As a result , the street near our school is always blocked with walking people and passing cars .
I think the government should take some measures to solve this problem . In my opinion , an overpass should be built or Zhongyuan Road should be widened to prevent accidents from happening .
I am looking forward to your reply .
