四、 阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，共40分）
第一节:阅读下列短文,选择正确答案标在试卷相应位置。
( A )
Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted.
Tina, and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter, “She used to cuddle up (蜷伏)with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” Said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”
Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they mustn’t give their children a mental (精神上的)break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.
56, “The door to his room is always shut.” suggests that the son______.
A, is always busy with his studies, B, doesn’t want to be disturbed,
C, keeps himself away from his parents, D, begins to dislike his parents,
57, What troubles Tina and Mark most is that ______.
A, their daughter isn’t as lovely as before,
B, they can’t read their daughter’s mind exactly,
C, they don’t know what to say to their daughter,
D, their daughter talks with them only when she needs help,
58, What can be learned from the passage?
A, Parents are unhappy with their growing children,
B, Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers,
C, Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers,
D, Parents should try to understand their teenagers,
( B )
You can have the same neighbors for years,” the old man said. “You love them or you think you love them. And you hope that they love you. But do you ever really understand them?
Charlie Kemp and his family lived next door to me for 15 years. We were good friends for all that time, I enjoy friendship---I’m sure it’s the best thing in the world. And friendship with the Kemps was easy because they seemed to welcome it.
They were interesting and intelligent (clever) people, their house caught fire twice; and twice the whole family slept in mime. They were always losing things---money, keys, or watches. Pictures fell off the walls; the children fell out of bed. …
I was their neighbor and their friend. Life was always interesting, never dull(单调的). Best of all I liked the whole family.”
One day, I lit a fire in the garden and was burning some rubbish. After a while Charlie Kemp came out of his house and walked up the road.
“Morning, Charlie,” I said. “Lovely day, isn’t it?” He smiled at me and nodded. I went on with my work.
Twenty minutes later a policeman arrived. He walked into my garden and said, “You’ll have to put out that fire. Your neighbor has complained to us. He doesn’t like the smell.”
“My neighbor…?” I said.
“Yes,” the policeman said. He took out his notebook and read, “Charlie Kemp. He lives next door, doesn’t he?”
59, ______were neighbors in this story?
A, The old man and his family, B, Charlie Kemp and his family,
C, The old man and the Kemps, D, Both A and B,
60, The old man liked the Kemps because______.

C, their house was often on fire, D, he thought they loved him,
61, The old man found that it was quite strange that ______.
A, Charlie told the police about the fire, B, they often lost things,
C, the fire burnt the whole of the Kemps’ house, D, Charlie smiled to him,
62, How did the old man help his neighbors?
A, He found the things they lost, B, He thought they were interesting and intelligent,
C, He lent them money, D, He let them sleep in his house after the fires,

Smile, when making an introduction.
Every day we meet people in a number of business and social situations. And the way we meet and greet them creates an impression. It’s important to do so in a proper way, no matter whether you are introducing yourself to someone, or introducing two people to each other. To keep you aware of this, we have gathered tips (提示)on how to make a proper introduction.
Always stand when making an introduction.
When you are seated and someone comes up to greet you, make the effort to stand up. By doing this, you show respect for yourself and for the other person.
Always maintain eye contact while making an introduction.
Many people are not aware of the value of this simple action. When you make eye contact you are giving a confident image.
Always introduce a person of lesser authority (权位)to one of greater authority. The most important thing to remember is to say the most important person’s name first.
For example, when introducing your supervisor (主管人)to a job candidate (谋职者), you would give your supervisor’s name first. “Bob Jones, may I introduce Susan Lee, who has just graduated from ABC University?”
In a situation where rank (地位)is unimportant, an introduction is based on sex and age. A man is presented （introduced）to a woman and a younger woman to an older woman.
What if you find yourself in a situation where you have forgotten the other person’s name? Start with a handshake and reintroduce yourself. By doing this, you will usually cause the other person to do the same.
However, if the other person does not take your suggestion, it is OK simply to apologize and let the person know that you cannot remember her or his name. This is not the ideal (理想的)situation, of course. But it does happen to all of us. The other person should be forgiving(原谅).
64, The article gives you advice on ______.
A, how to make a self introduction,
B, how to make a proper introduction,
C, how to leave a good impression on people,
D, how to greet people in social situations,
65, According to the passage, people will think you are ______if you don’t make eye contact with them.
A, not honest, B, not confident, C, shy, D, unfriendly,
66, What should you do when you introduce a new worker to your boss?
A, You should not give your boss’ name.
B, You should give the new worker’s name first.
C, You needn’t give your boss’ name.
D, You should give your boss’ name first.
67, If you forget the other person’s name, you’d better ______.
A, ask him or her directly,
B, apologize first and then ask him or her,
C, shake hands with the person and reintroduce yourself,
D, consider his age first,
( D )
Some people have the feeling that nothing can be done about their poor reading ability. They feel hopeless about it. Can you learn to read better, or must you agree that nothing can be done about it?
To be sure, people are different. You cannot expect to do everything as well as certain other people do. If all the students in a class tried out for basketball, some would be would be very good players; others would be very poor; and many would be in between. But even the very poor players can become much better players if they are guided in the right way, and with plenty of practice. It is the same with reading. Some seem to enjoy reading and to read well without any special help. Others find reading a slow and tiring job. In between, there are all degrees of reading ability.
Many experiments have shown that just about every poor reader can improve his reading ability. In these experiments, the poor readers were given tests of reading ability. After some of the causes of their poor reading were discovered, they were given special instruction and practice in reading. After a few months, another test of the same kind was given. In nearly all cases, these people had raised their reading scores.
68, With the example of basketball players, the author shows______.
A, why certain people are poor readers,
B, that there are differences in people’s abilities,
C, why some people are good basketball players,
D, that good basketball players can be good readers,
69, To improve their reading ability, people should ______.
A, work long and hard, B, take different forms of tests,
C, have special help and practice, D, try different reading materials,
70, The experiments mentioned in the text show that______.
A, good readers seem to enjoy reading,
B, almost all poor readers can make progress,
C, causes of poor reading are difficult to find out,
D, tests help people improve their reading ability,

___71 This was not because the woods and fields were always far away, but because they were too far from the city to permit people to make a day trip between morning and nightfall.
72 He decided to turn his little school house into a dormitory(宿舍楼) for the summer holidays. Anyone who brought his sleeping bag and cooking equipment along could stay there for a very small quantity of money. The idea was a success. A few years later, the school house was much too small to hold the many young people who wanted to stay there. 73 This was the first hostel(青年招待所).
Today, young students and workers of every country can meet in the hostel and get to know each other. When young people arrive at the hostel, they have only to show their cards of membership in a hostel organization in their own country. 74 .
Often, at the evening meal, a group of boys and girls from various parts of the country or world will happen to meet at the same hostel. They may put their food together and prepare a dinner with many kinds of dishes. Sometimes a program will be organized after the meal with dances, songs, or short talks followed by a question period. 75 For this reason, a few weeks spent “hostelling” can be just as useful a part of one’s education as classes in school.
A, In 1970, a young German school master had an idea which changed this situation.
B, People can stay in the hostel if they brought enough equipment with them.
C, One can learn a lot about other places, just by meeting people from those places.
D, As a result, a dormitory was set up in an old castle nearby.
E, For years, children in the industrial areas of Europe seldom left their cities to see the beauties of the countryside.
F, More and more young people went to the hostel for summer holidays.
G, This card will permit them to stay in a hostel all over the world for very low prices.
