三、阅读理解（1×30）

A

My grandfather grew up in war – torn Europe. When German soldiers occupied his home –

town, the thriving city of Tarow, Poland, he refused to obey them and eventually joined the Soviet army to fight for his country’s freedom. “Stand straight, stand tall,” he told himself.

After the war, in 1947, he boarded a boat for Manhattan. He was hungry and suffering from seasickness. All alone in a new country, he was frightened about his future .Still, he marched head-on into the hustle and bustle of the streets of New York. Soon he met other European immigrants, each of them trying to find his or her own way. If they could do it, why couldn’t he? “Stand straight, stand tall,” he would remind himself.

Thanks to the help of a loyal and trusting friend, my grandfather gained a jewelry booth on Canal Street, New York City. He once told me how nervous he was on that first day of work. He was not only trying to learn this tough new business, but also a new language.

To his surprise, the men in neighboring booths—who could have taken advantage of him—offered their help and advice. Within months, my grandfather was commanding his spot behind the counter, selling diamonds and cultured pearls as if he’d been doing it his whole life.

Stand straight and stand tall.

In later years, my grandfather would take both my mother and her sister down the aisle at their weddings. As he stood with each of them, he thought about their new beginnings, and of the adventures and journeys they would experience together .He also thought about the children who would one day carry on his family name.

I am so proud to be one of those children. Listening to my grandfather’s remarkable experiences has changed the way I view my own life.

a. My grandfather took both my mother and her sister down the aisle at their weddings.

c. My grandfather went to America.

d. My grandfather began to run his diamond business.

C．b, c ,e , a ,d D．c, b ,e ,d ,a

A．My grandfather was a soldier during World War II.

B．My grandfather went to America by sea.

C．My grandfather had been doing a jewelry business his whole life.

D．My grandfather ran his business successfully.

58．What does the underlined word “aisle” in the last but one paragraph mean?

B

The Food and Drug Administrator is, again, threatening to impose milk and meat from cloned animals on a public that opposes the technology and its products.

Respected polls report that more than 60% of Americans think animal cloning is immoral, and that most people said they wouldn’t knowingly eat the products even if the FDA approved them. But because the FDA would allow cloned meat and milk to be sold without identifying labels, consumers wouldn’t be able to avoid them. The FDA has consistently tilted toward those who want cloned milk and meat in our food. Agency officials have repeatedly asserted that science shows cloned milk and meat are safe for humans. But the FDA has never published the complete scientific studies it says support that claim.

The argument that cloning is safe for animals is unconvincing. Cloned meat and milk offer no public economic benefits. Having cloned cows produce more milk wouldn’t reduce milk prices. US farmers produce more milk than we drink, and the government is required to buy the surplus. Since 2000, dairy support programs have cost taxpayers more than $ 5 billion.

Most important, this first decision to advance animal biotechnology raises ethical issues beyond the FDA’s expertise. Techniques used to clone animals will advance the ability to clone humans－and create animals with human genes. Neither the agency nor animal scientists are qualified to tell us whether and when it is ethically acceptable for humans to alter the essential nature of animals. We need a national discussion, including ethicists and religious leaders, to consider the wisdom of cloned and transgenic animals. Given the risk of unintended consequences, we should proceed cautiously. The president should halt further FDA action on cloning and set in motion a process for beginning this broader discussion.

66．The author’s attitude towards cloning is __________.

A．neutral B．opposed C．approving D．supportive

67．In US many people buy cloned foods __________.

A．to support the new technique

B．because FDA approved them

C．because they cannot tell which is cloned food

D．because they cannot read the labels.

68．Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．Because more milk is produced by cloned cows, the milk price is reduced.

B．American farmers produce more milk than the people can consume.

C．FDA approved that cloned food is safe for human beings.

D．More and more people accept cloned milk and meat.

69．From the text we know that cloning technique ___________.

A．developed well enough to clone human beings

B．may cause unintended bad results to human beings

C．will bring more unexpected economic benefits

D．is supported by ethicists and religious leaders

70．What’s the best title of this passage?

A．Publice Is Against Cloned Food B．Benefits of Cloned Food

C．Cloned Food Is Illegal D．Technique in Cloned Food

C

请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填上最恰当的单词。（每

空1个单词）

Since the beginning of human evolution, men have migrated (迁移) across continents in search of food, shelter, safety, and comfortable weather. People still move for these reasons, but new reasons for human migration are arising, such as job relocation (重新安置) and overpopulation.

Three million migrants are moving from poor countries to wealthier ones each year, and increasingly, their destination is a neighboring country in developing parts of the world. People are moving within the developing world for the same reasons as they migrate to wealthier nations. People from poor countries are going to less poor countries, fleeing wars and conflicts. They are also responding to population pressures because some countries are densely populated, and they often have high population growth. Those people need to go somewhere else.

There are three main reasons why people move. The basic categories and percentages are as follows, according to the Current Population Surveys (CPS):

Family – related reasons account for 26.3%, including changes in marital (婚姻的) status, establishing a household and other family reasons; work – related reasons 16.2%, including job transfer, retirement, and other job – telated reasons; housing – related reasons 51.6%, including new and better houses, better neighborhood, cheaper housing and other housing reasons; the remaining 5.9% of other reasons are attending college, the change of climate and health reasons.

Americans have been migrating south and west for decades in search of better job opportunities and warmer climates. They have also been moving the places a little far from cities, in search of bigger yards and houses, lower crime rates and better schools. In 1950, nearly a fifth of the population lived in the nation’s 20 largest cities. In 2006, it was about one in ten. That’s why many American people say, “Big Cities Shrink as People Move South, West.”

Between March 2005 and March 2007. 73.4 million Americans moved. Fifty – six percent of these moves were within the same country. Twenty percent were between counties but in the same state. Nineteen percent were moves to a different state. Some families even went abroad.

Title: People on the 71

Lead - in

Throughout human 72 , people have migrated across continents.

An 73 number of people from poor countries are moving to

74 countries, especially neighboring ones.

75 for people’s migration

According to the CPS, the 76 of people move to other places for reasons 77 to housing.

Americans have long been moving south and west, looking 78 a better job chance, a warmer 79 and a bigger yard, etc.

Conclusion

Now every year more and more people move to other places, which seems to have become a global 80 .
