科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2010—2011學(xué)年黑龍江省哈爾濱市第六中學(xué)高二下學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)卷 題型：閱讀理解

Ok, I admit it: Emoticons(表情符號(hào)) are popular. Some people even think they are fun. Many seem unable to get through an e-mail or Instant Message chat sentence without using one. Some feel that they add feeling and character to otherwise cold digital communications.
Some, however, such as editor and Hollywood scriptwriter John Blumenthal, blast the use of emotions as “ infantile(幼稚的) just like the people who use them”. He believes that words themselves should be enough. “If you’re being funny, happy or sad, that should be apparent from the comment that goes before the emoticons,” he argues.
In the eyes of Blumenthal, the use of emoticons is a gender issue. “Men don’t use emoticons very much. Maybe not at all.,” he said. “Teenage girls and women seem to use them a lot. Maybe there’s an emoticons gene.”
It’s an interesting opinion, but it is not shared by all.
In an interview with The New York Times, Dacher Keltner, professor of psychology at the University of California, said that emoticons are popular because our brains are programmed “ to seek out representations of humanity”. He believes that they appeal not because they are shortcuts for the lazy, but because they tap into（輸入）something beyond language. They reach to our need to be with and communicate with people.
All of these arguments may be somehow valid（正確的）. Each one of us will choose to communicate in our own way. I do not have much time for emoticons. I tried to use one once and felt like I was stealing into a primary school class that I had no place being in. I’d rather let my words do the talking.
Friends, however, send me messages and e-mails full of emoticons. I have no problem with this, I don’t regard any of my friends as lazy or immature. It’s just a question of individuality.
【小題1】According to the article, emoticons are popular because_________.

A．most of them look funny
B．they are easy for lazy people to use
C．they add feeling and character to a communication
D．a(chǎn) reader cannot understand a message without them
【小題2】 Which of the following views would John Blumenthal agree with ?
A．Instant Message chatters are childish.
B．It’s enough to use language in digital communication.
C．Men never use emoticons.
D．There is an emoticon gene in everybody.
【小題3】From the text, we can conclude that the author________.
A．feels he has no difficulty using emoticons
B．thinks emoticons don’t suit him
C．encourage his friends to use emoticons
D．believes that emoticons are suitable for everyone
【小題4】What is the main point of the article ?
A．Advice on language used over the Internet.
B．The history of emoticons.
C．Arguments over the use of emoticons.
D．Reasons for the popularity of emoticons.

  Dolphins and sharks are showing up in surprisingly shallow water just off the Florida coast．Mullets，crabs，rays and small fish gather by the thousands off an Alabama pier．Birds covered in oil are crawling（爬）deep into marshes（沼澤），never to be seen again．
Marine scientists studying the effects of the BP disaster（英國(guó)石油公司漏油事件）are seeing some strange phenomena．Fish and other wildlife seem to be fleeing the oil out in the Gulf and gathering in cleaner waters along the coast in a trend that some researchers see as a potentially troubling sign．The animals.presence close to shore means their usual habitat is badly polluted，and the crowding could result in mass die-offs as fish run out of oxygen．Also，the animals could easily be captured by their enemies．
The nearly two-month-old spill（漏油）has created an environmental disaster in US history as tens of millions of gallons have flown into the Gulf of Mexico ecosystem．Scienfists are seeing some unusual things as they try to understand the effects on thousands of species of marine life．For nearly four hours Monday，a three-person crew with Greenpeace cruised（巡航）past delicate islands and mangrove-dotted inlets in Barataria Bay off southern Louisiana．They saw dolphins by the dozen frolicking（嬉戲）in the oily sheen（光澤）and oil-tinged pelicans feeding their young．But they spotted no dead animals．
“I think part of the reason why we’re not seeing more yet is that the impacts of this crisis are really just beginning，”Greenpeace marine biologist John Hocevar said．
The counting of dead wildlife in the Gulf is more than an academic exercise；the deaths will help determine how much BP pays in damages．
【小題1】What do the marine life react to the BP disaster？

A．Dolphins and sharks show up in deep water．
B．Tens of thousands of marine animals are found dead．
C．Sea creatures flee from oil spill，gathering near seashore．

【小題4】From the passage，we can infer that         ．

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is one of the most loved children’s books of all time, and many adults enjoy it as well. It tells the story of a young girl named Alice, who follows a rabbit entering a magical world called Wonderland. She has many experiences which seem to change the rules of reasoning or common sense. The popularity of the book comes from its imagination, interesting story, and art work.
The writer of the book is Lewis Carroll. In fact, Lewis Carroll was not the writer’s real name. His real name was Charles Dodgson. One day, he took a boat ride down the Thames River to have a picnic with three little girls who were friends of the family. To keep them entertained on the ride, he told them a story in which Alice, the middle child, was the main character. They enjoyed the story very much.
Charles later wrote the story down under the name Alice’s Adventures Under Ground and gave it to Alice as a Christmas present. Later, he gave a copy to his friend George MacDonald.

She immediately requested a collection of all of Lewis Carroll’s works. She was surprised to find that they included many works on math. In fact, Charles Dodgson was a highly respected mathematician.
