第三部分閱讀理解(共15小題;每小題2分,滿分30分)
第一節(jié)閱讀下面兩篇語言材料,然后按要求做題。(共10小題;每小題2分,滿分20分)
A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington D.C. I saw many of our nation’s treasures, and I also saw a lot of unfortunate people like beggars and homeless folks in the streets.
Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended(伸出). In a natural reaction, I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand. I didn’t even look at her. I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar.
But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money. I just need help finding the post office.”
Immediately, I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice(偏見)—I judged another person simply for what I thought she was.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in America at the age of 15. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, cashier, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other jobs, and finally I became a network engineer.
In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice. I remember a time, at age 17— I was a busboy, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well at school, he would end up like me.
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washington D.C. cured me of my blindness. She reminded me to always keep my eyes and heart open.
1. When the author came to America at first ______.
A. he usually did some work with a little payment.          
B. he used to beg for some money on the street.
C. he lived a comfortable life as a network engineer.  
D. he was respected by others all the time.
2. According to the passage, what did the author regret?
A. That he gave all his change to the blind woman.   
B. The way he treated the blind woman.
C. That he came to Washington D.C. for a visit.  
D. That he didn’t tell the woman the way to the post office.
3. The father mentioned in the passage wanted ______. 
A. to encourage his son to make a living by himself   
B. his son to become a busboy in the future  
C. his son to work harder at school
D. to remind his son to depend on himself at school
4. We can infer all of the following statements from the passage EXCEPT ______.
A. He disliked being bothered by beggars.  
B. He was delighted to give away his money to beggars.    
C. He once suffered a lot.      
D. The blind woman didn’t beg for money at that time.
5. What does the author want to tell us through this story?
A. Don’t dream up ways to get what you want.     B. Money is the root of all evils.
C. An easy life makes a person forgetful.   D. Be good to others all the time.

Effects of tourism
Nearly everybody likes traveling. Nowadays, tourism is becoming an indispensable industry in China. Moreover, our government has taken good measures to improve this new industry in recent years. For instance, many appealing scenic and historic spots have been explored. And therefore, thousands upon thousands of tourists around the world flood into China every year.
However, a coin has two sides. Advantages of tourism industry are always accompanied by disadvantages. Those who are in favour of tourism industry argue that our country can benefit a lot from it. On the one hand, we can introduce our splendid national culture to the world. On the other, we can increase our financial income. Additionally, tourism can help to promote the understanding and friendship among the peoples of the world.
The main reason why some people oppose tourism is that the masses cannot benefit from it, because too many tourists will lead to the higher prices of goods. Furthermore, it is also a danger to the environment, because too many tourists will bring more waste, which is difficult to deal with for the moment.
Anyway, as a rising industry, tourism has played its unique role in the development of China.  China is a great country which is endowed with natural beauty and possesses historic relics. So for one thing, we should display our best to the world; and for another, we should take action to avoid any negative effects.
Effects of tourism
Tourism industry is ___1___.
The government is trying to _2____ this industry
More and more tourists __3___ China.
Argument ___4__
Introduce ____5____ to the world
___6__ financial income
Promote ___7___
Argument against tourism

In conclusion 
    Show our best to the world

On December 8, Xinhua News Agency published a list of news keywords that it believes sum up the year 2009.
The phrase “l(fā)ow-carbon life” had been heard in China before 2009, but in 2009, it has become popular among young Chinese who are concerned about the environment. It comes as world leaders are talking about fighting global warming in Copenhagen, Denmark. Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, are the main cause of global warming, which leads to extreme weather and other conditions.
Living a low carbon life means trying to cut carbon dioxide emissions(排放) in one’s daily life. For example, burning less coal and oil, which produce CO2. It means walking, biking or taking buses, rather than using a private car.
“A(H1N1) flu” is also on Xinhua’s list. Since April, 2009 the virus has made over 100,000 people ill on the Chinese mainland and 325 people had died of it as of December 9. But as US magazine Newsweek pointed out recently, the best evidence suggests it is no more dangerous than a bad seasonal flu.
The year 2009 saw the growing impact of the Internet on society, with the word “duomaomao”, meaning hide-and-seek, becoming a hit on the web. On February 12, Li Qiaoming died of brain injuries several days after being detained(拘留) by police in Jinning county, Yunnan Province. Police said it was an accident sustained(遭受)while he was playing hide-and-seek with his fellow prisoners. Netizens cast doubt on this explanation and called for an investigation. It turned out that Li had been beaten to death by other prisoners.
Another phrase connected with the Internet on the list is “Net Addiction Camps”. Many parents send children obsessed(沉迷) with the web to “Net Addiction Camps” for treatment. But some camps use physical punishment or electrical shocks. In 2009, some young people died as a result of the extreme methods, which led to a nationwide discussion. In November, the Ministry of Health banned the use of physical punishment to keep children off the net and dropped the term “net addiction(網(wǎng)癮)”. It did not say that excessive(過度的) net use is a mental illness either.
66. The purpose of the passage is to ___________.
A. call on the public to live a low-carbon life
B. show the great effect of the Internet
C. introduce some news keywords of the year 2009
D. warn people not to be addicted to the Internet
67. The underlined word “Netizens” in the fifth paragraph refer to_________.
A. Li’s fellow prisoners
B. Li’s friends and relatives
C. the local people
D. people actively involved in online communities
68. What can be inferred from the incident of “duomaomao”?
A. Hide-and-seek is a dangerous game.
B. Li was beaten to death by other prisoners.
C. Police did a great job in the investigation (調(diào)查).
D. It was the influence of the Internet that led to the truth.
69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The phrase “l(fā)ow-carbon life” had been popular among young people before 2009.
B. Global warming mainly results from greenhouse gases.
C. A (H1N1) flu is more dangerous than a bad seasonal flu.
D. Li Qiaoming died of an accident while playing hide-and-seek with his fellow prisoners.
70. Which of the following doesn’t mean a low-carbon life ?
A. Using a private car.
B. Using efficient light bulbs.
C. Walking, biking or taking buses.
D. Turning your air-conditioner one degree higher.
