阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40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
Both Japan and the United States are warning North Korea against testing a new long-range missile (导弹) capable of reaching North America. “There is no good that can come from launching a North Korean missile. It will only isolate (隔离) the North Koreans further from the rest of the international community.” Thomas Schieffer, the U.S. ambassador to Japan, said Saturday.
Eight years ago, the rogue communist government shocked the world when it fired a long-range missile over Japan and into the Pacific Ocean.
The North Korean government has denied a test of the Taepodong-2 missile is forthcoming, but a South Korean newspaper reported Saturday that about 10 fuel tanks have been moved to the launch site. However, a South Korean foreign ministry spokesman couldn’t confirm the report.
The Kyodo News agency of Japan reported Saturday that the North Koreans plan to describe the missile test as a satellite launch as it did eight years ago.
There have been talks involving six nations－North and South Korea, China, Russia, Japan and the United States－but those have been delayed by a North Korean boycott. “We hope the North Koreans will not take this action and return to the six-party talks, as those talks can still be productive,” Schieffer said. If North Korea goes ahead with the test, Schieffer would only say, “all options are on the table.”
Taro also, Japan’s foreign minister, described the situation as serous. North Korea is one of the world’s two nuclear hotspots. The other is Iran.
56. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. North Korea Testing a Long-range Missile
B. U.S. And Japan Urge N. Korea Not To Test Fire Missile
C. Two Nuclear Hotspots——North Korea And Iran
D. Return To the Six-party Talks, North Korea!
57. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence in paragraph 5?
A. They will punish Korea.
B. They will take action against the missile.
C. They might do anything possible as a response.
D. They might have talks around the table soon.
58. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. North Korea has to find an excuse for the missile launched betore.
B. Six-party talks have to be dismissed due to the N. Korea boycott.
C. North Korea will be driven off the international community.
D. South Korea spokesman couldn’t believe the newspaper report.
59. ____________ might be talked about in the next paragraph of the passage.
A. Iran’s nuclear program
B. International attention on Iran’s nuclear weapons
C. Iran’s intention with nuclear bombs
D. Iran’s terrorists

One of the most popular literary figures in American literature is a woman who spent almost half of the long life in China, a country on a continent thousands of miles from the Unite States. In her lifetime she earned this country’s most highly acclaimed(称赞) literary award－the Pulitzer Prize, and also the most prestigious form of literary recognition in the world, the Nobel Prize for Literature. Pearl S. Buck was almost a household word throughout much of her lifetime because of her prolific literary output, which consisted of some eighty-five published works, including several dozen novels, six collections of short stories, fourteen books for children, and more than a dozen works of nonfiction. When she was eighty years old, some twenty-five volumes were awaiting publication. Many of those books were set in China, the land in which she spent so much of her life. Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of the East and the West. As the product of those two cultures she became as she described herself, “mentally bifocal”(双焦点的). Her unique background made her into an unusually interesting and versatile(多面的) human being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck, we cannot help but be aware that we are in fact meeting three separate people; a wife and mother, an internationally famous writer and a humanitarian and philanthropist(慈善家). One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without learning about each of the three, though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition the Nobel and Pulitzer prizes. Pearl Buck as a total human being, not only a famous author, is an attractive subject of study.
60. What is the author’s main purpose in the passage?
A. To offer a criticism of the works of Pearl Buck.
B. To illustrate Pearl Buck’s views on Chinese literature.
C. To indicate the background and diverse interests of Pearl Buck.
D. To discuss Pearl Buck’s influence on the cultures of the East and the West.
61. According to the passage, Pearl Buck is known as a writer of all of the following EXCEPT
____________.
A. novels B. children’s books C. poetry D. short stories
62. According to the passage Pearl Buck was an unusual figure in American literature in that she
_____________.
A. wrote extensively about a very different culture
B. published half of her books abroad
C. won more awards than any other woman of her time
D. achieved her first success very late in life
63. According to the passage, pearl Buck described herself as “mentally bifocal” to suggest that she was ______________.
A. capable of solving the differences between two language systems
B. quite aware of how the past could influence the future
C. capable of producing literary works of interest to both adults and children
D. equally familiar with two different cultural environments
