四. 閱讀理解(共20個小題,每題2分)

Today almost everyone knows computers and the Internet．If I ask you “What is the most important in your life?” maybe you will say “Computers and the Internet．”

The first computer was made in 1946.It was very big but it worked slowly. Today computers are getting smaller and smaller． But they work faster and faster． What can computers do? A writer has said, “People can’t live without computers today．”

  The Internet came a little later than computers. It is about twenty-five years later than computers． But now it can be found almost everywhere． We can use it to read books, write letters, do shopping, play games or make friends．

Many students like the Internet very much．They often go into the Internet as soon as they are free． They make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They don’t know their real names, ages, and even sex (性別)． They are so interested in making the “unreal friends” that they can’t put their hearts into study． Many of them can’t catch up with others on many subjects because of that．

We can use computers and the Internet to learn more about the world． But at the same time, we should remember that not all the things can be done by computers and the Internet．

56．When the computer was invented, it was ____．

       A．large and worked quickly      B．small and worked slowly

A
The key to happiness is how quickly you can get back your focus on what’s important．
-----Anonymous
Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cab．Here's what happened．I hopped in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station．We were driving in the right lane when, all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us．My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car’s back end by just inches!
The driver of the other car, who almost caused a big accident, started yelling bad words at us．My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy．And I mean, he was friendly．So, I said, "Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!" And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call "The Law of the Garbage Truck．"
Many people are like garbage （rubbish） trucks．They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment．As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it．And if you let them, they'll dump it on you．When someone wants to dump on you, don't take it personally．You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on．You'll be happy you did．
I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets? It was that day I said, "I'm not going to do anymore．"
Good leaders know they have to be ready for their next meeting．Good parents know that they have to welcome their children home from school with hugs and kisses．Leaders and parents know that they have to be fully present, and at their best for the people they care about．The bottom line is that successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their day．What about you? What would happen in your life, starting today, if you let more garbage trucks pass you by? Here's my bet．You'll be happier．Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets．So, Love the people who treat you right．Forget about the ones who don't．
36．What happened one day when the author was taking a taxi?
A．The taxi almost hit another car．
B．The taxi driver was injured．
C．The author scolded the driver of the other car．
D．The author learned a lesson from the driver of the garbage truck．

A．He yelled back at the driver．         B．He sent the driver to the hospital．
C．He was friendly towards the driver．     D．He dumped some garbage in front of his car．
38．What does the taxi driver think of people according to Paragraph 3?
A．Many people like to drive garbage trucks．
B．Many people dump garbage wherever they like．
C．Many people are warm-hearted to make others happy．
D．Many people tend to be very much depressed．

A．The author used to have a lot of garbage trucks．
B．The author used to complain a lot．
C．The author used to have a lot of money．
D．The author used to be a good manager．

B．Try our best to persuade them not to do that again．
C．Tell them to dump the garbage in the right place．

三、閱讀理解（共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分）
閱讀下面短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A．B．C和D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項的標號涂黑。
A
I remember a day when I was a little kid. I was making a sandwich in the kitchen when I noticed the date on one of the wine bottles.
"Dad, dad!" I cried. "This wine is too old to drink."
"Son, hold on," he said.
"No, you can't drink this tonight! This bottle of wine was made 10 years ago."
"Wait, let me tell you..."
"Would you like me to throw it away for you?" I asked.
"Son, wait a second," he said. "Son, some wines get better over time. The longer you wait to drink it, the better it will be. Although this may seem strange, it is true."
When I was young, I didn't have any understanding of what this meant, but now, this would have been very helpful to remember as I went through my teenage years.
In our society, we forget this simple role: The longer you wait for certain things, the better they will be. But we want the best job as quickly as possible; we want to graduate from college in as few years as possible; we even speed through our homework just to chat with friends. When we do this, we lose something of great importance.
We all want to get to the next step so quickly that perhaps we don't get ready enough to get there. This has a negative effect on our society. When trying to go to the right college, we will do anything to get in and when we rush through our class－work, we may not study enough for the test, and end up failing. We need to be ready for whatever comes, ready for the unexpected. Wine gets better over time, so do the things in our paths of life.
56．Why did the author tell his father not to drink the bottle of wine?
A．Because it smelt terrible.
B．Because it was mixed with something else.
C．Because his father drank too much that night.
D．Because it had been kept for years.
57．What the author's father said______.
A．made the author puzzled when he was a little child
B．was too simple a rule to be meaningful to the author
C．threw the author into deep thought then
D．was an excuse to drink the wine
58．In the author's opinion, if we do things too quickly we will______.
A．do it better                                                                 B．save much time
C．graduate from college more quickly          D．miss something useful to us in life
59．Which of the following best reflects the main idea of the passage?
A．Well begun is half done.                       B．More haste, less speed.
C．Failure is the mother of success.       D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

The 2009 outbreak of HINI is a new kind of influenza virus, commonly referred to as “swine flu”. It is thought to be a break of four known kinds of influenza. A virus subtype H1N1: one endedmic(流行病) in humans, one endemic in birds, and two endemic in pigs (swine). The source of the outbreak in humans is still unknown, but cases were first discovered in the U.S. and soon after in Mexico.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC)，it is not yet clear how serious this new virus actually is compared with other influenza viruses, although on May 26 they stated that new cases in the U.S. have probably reached the hightest point, and most cases have so far been mild relative to “seasonal flus”. But because this is a new virus, most people will not have immunity(免疫性) to it, and illness may eventually become more severe and widspread. The H1N1 flu mainly spreads in the same way that regular “seasonal influenza” spreads through the air from coughs and sneezes or touching those infected. It cannot be transmitted from eating cooked pork or by being in close contact with pigs.

As yet there is no vaccine(疫苗) available to prevent infection although companies are in the planning stages for having one available later this year. But there is concern that the virus could vary again over the coming months, leading to a new and potentially more dangerous flu outbreak later in the year, and a vaccine that will be less effective in preventing its spread.

As of May 27, the virus had spread to more than 50 countries; however, over 80% of reported deaths have taken place in Mexico. According to the CDC, the fact that the flu’s infection activity is now monitored more closely may help explain why more flu cases than normal are being recorded in Mexico, the United States and other countries.    

1. The 2009 outbreak of H1N1 is thought to      .

A.be concerned with four endmics                                             

B.have come from the virus from pigs

C.occur because of unknown virus in Mexico

D.be caused because of people without immunity

2.According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, ______.

A.most people won’t be infected with the flu                                           

B.the H1N1 will not be too mild to cause many deaths in the world

C.the present situation allows of no optimist

D.H1N1 can be transmitted by touching pigs                             

3.To make people worried more is that      .

A.no effective vaccine can prevent the virus from spreading

B.the virus will mutate in the following months

C.a seasonal influenza will break out

D.the newly-developed vaccine will lose effectiveness

4.From the passage we can learn that      .

A.every country is watching closely the spreading of the H1N1                        

B.more than one-fourth of the deaths from the H1N1 are in Mexico                          

C.only the United States and Mexico recorded the cased of influenza                                                                     

D.effective medicine has been produced to cure the H1N1
