Ⅳ. Reading Comprehension (60 points)
Directions: There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four
questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose
one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
Passage One
Many people are wondering if it is safe to talk on the phone while driving. There have been quitea few accidents while drivers were talking on the phone. Some research is being done to find out ifdriving while talking on the phone is dangerous.
When there is a car accident police officers will find out if any of the drivers were using a cellphone. They will write this information in a report. The information will be saved and later studied.
There have been some very bad car accidents caused by drivers being distracted by cell phones.
Drivers sometimes forget to watch the road carefully when they are using their phones. Not payingattention to the road can be dangerous, even deadly.
It is important for drivers to focus on the road. They need to pay attention to what is going on
around them. They might need to stop or swerve quickly.
People want to make sure that the roads are safe for everyone. Studies will be done using the
information police officers collect at accidents. Maybe someday this information will lead to laws aboutdriving and using cell phones.
36. While driving, drivers must keep an eye on what is happening
A. in other cars
B. on the phone
C. around them
D. at home
37. Driving and talking on the phone at the same time could be, research says.

B. dangerous
C. illegal
D. fun
38. What will police officers do after a car accident? They will
A. send the driver to the hospital
B. check how seriously the car is damaged

D. find out if a cell phone is used
39. The studies are based on

Passage Two
If the teacher asks a question, you are expected to give an answer. If you do not understand the
question, you should raise your hand and ask the teacher to repeat the question. If you do not know theanswer, it is all right to tell the teacher that you do not know. Then he or she knows what you need tolearn.
There is no excuse for not doing your homework. If you are absent, you should call your teacher
or someone who is in your class and ask for the assignment. It is your responsibility to find out whatassignments you have missed. It is not the teacher's responsibility to remind you of missedassignments.
You must not be absent on a test day. If you are seriously ill, call and let the teacher know you
will not be there for the test. If your teacher allows make-up tests, you should take the test within oneor two days after returning to class. Serious illness is the only reason for missing a test.
Be on time! It is considered rude to be late. Also, it bothers other students. If you must come in
late, be sure to do it quietly. Have your books and papers out of your bag before you come into theroom. Then go to your seat and sit quietly. In the U.S. it is not necessary to knock before you enterthe classroom. Most of the ELC teachers will give you a low grade if you are often late.
Have your book out and be ready to begin when the class starts. Your teacher should not have toask you every day to take out your book. Be sure you have a paper and a sharp pencil ready.
40. If you are puzzled with the question teacher asks, you shouldfirst.

Passage Three
Imagine going to sleep in October and waking up in May! Well, marmots and ground squirrels
stay warm by sleeping all winter. All this time, they do not wake up once. This special kind of sleep iscalled hibernation. During this sleep, the heart slows down, and the animal breathes more slowly, itdoesn't move around, so it uses less energy.
Animals like the marmot and the ground squirrel inhabit the coldest parts of the world. They needspecial talents to survive in these frigid places. Their furry coats keep them snug when the temperaturefalls below zero. It often gets this cold in the Arctic, a land that is just below the North Pole.
Before the long winter, some animals eat and eat. After a while, they grow very fat. When the
winter comes, they live on the fat saved up in their bodies. Layers of fat keep an animal warm.
Arctic animals also have other ways to beat the cold. Rabbits in the Arctic, for example, have
very small ears. Small ears keep heat in, while big ears let it out. Small things usually keep heat in.
Have you ever slept in a room that is very small, and noticed how hot it can get?
It rarely gets warm in the Arctic. But although summer seasons there are very short, the sun
shines brightly. Plants seem to spring up before your eyes! Animals such as caribou look forward allyear to summer, when they can eat fresh grass again. Every minute of sunshine is important to theirlives.

Passage Four
Today, the Indianapolis 500, one of the world's most famous car races, takes about four hours to
run. If the Indy 500 had been held in 1895, it would have taken almost three days. The horseless
carriage had just been invented a short time before. Top speeds back then were much lower than theyare today. For most people, just seeing a car move without a horse pulling it was thrilling enough. Thedriver's main concern was making sure the car didn't break down.
One of the first car races was held in Chicago on Thanksgiving Day in 1895. Folks crowded thestreets togawkat the new machines. The route of the race went through the heart of town. The carswere to go out to a nearby suburb and back. The race covered a distance of about 54 miles. That's lessthan one-tenth the distance at Indy. The drivers cranked up their engines and prayed that they wouldn'tbreak down. Then they were off. The race proved too much for some of the cars. Perhaps they couldn'twithstand the high speeds. The winner of the contest was J. Frank Duryea. He finished the race a bitmore than seven hours after he started. He had covered the grueling distance at an average speed of7.5 miles per hour. That is slower than a modern marathoner can go on foot. Even so, as Duryeafinished, the crowd went wild.

Ⅳ.Reading Comprehension
第一篇
【答案】
36.C 37.B 38.D 39.D
【解析】
36.倒數(shù)第二段。司機(jī)要隨時(shí)注意周圍的情況。In other cars在別人的車?yán)铩_x項(xiàng)C是正確的。
37.第一段最后一句。選項(xiàng)B是正確的。Illegal非法的。根據(jù)最后一段,有關(guān)法律還未出臺(tái),所以還不能斷然說(shuō)是非法的。
38.第二段。在車禍現(xiàn)場(chǎng),警察要做的是詢問(wèn)司機(jī)是否在用手機(jī)。收集其信息作研究,而不是對(duì)車禍本身做研究(選項(xiàng)C)。選項(xiàng)D是正確的。
39.最后一段。選項(xiàng)D是正確的。研究要靠從車禍?zhǔn)占瘉?lái)的信息來(lái)做。人們擔(dān)心的就是道路是否足夠安全,而研究也是為此而做。選項(xiàng)A可以是做這種研究的原因或目的。選項(xiàng)B太籠統(tǒng),強(qiáng)調(diào)的是車禍本身,而不是有關(guān)車禍起因的信息。研究之后才有可能是有關(guān)法律的制定,不可能基于有關(guān)的法律做研究。所以,選項(xiàng)C是不正確的。
【原文大意】
許多人想知道開車時(shí)打電話是否安全。很多車禍都是發(fā)生在司機(jī)打電話時(shí)。一些研究正在進(jìn)行中以證明一邊打電話一邊開車是危險(xiǎn)的。
如果發(fā)生車禍,警察會(huì)差名司機(jī)是否在用手機(jī)。他們會(huì)把這個(gè)信息記入報(bào)告中,這個(gè)信息被存儲(chǔ)以備以后研究之用。
有些非常嚴(yán)重的車禍就是因?yàn)樗緳C(jī)受手機(jī)影響精神不集中造成的。在用手機(jī)時(shí),司機(jī)往往忘了注意路上狀況。忽略路況是非常危險(xiǎn)的,甚至是致命的。
注意路況對(duì)司機(jī)來(lái)說(shuō)是非常重要的。他們需要注意周圍的情況,以便能快速停車或轉(zhuǎn)向。
人們想確定道路對(duì)每一個(gè)人都是安全的。人們將基于車禍時(shí)收集的信息作研究,將來(lái)的某一天,會(huì)制定出有關(guān)開車時(shí)使用手機(jī)的法律。

【原文大意】
如果老師提問(wèn),你應(yīng)當(dāng)回答問(wèn)題。如果你沒(méi)有明白那個(gè)問(wèn)題,應(yīng)當(dāng)舉手請(qǐng)老師重復(fù)那個(gè)問(wèn)題。如果你不知道答案,沒(méi)關(guān)系,告訴老師你不知道。這樣,他就知道你需要學(xué)的是什么了。不能有任何借口不做作業(yè)。如果你缺課,應(yīng)當(dāng)向老師或同學(xué)詢問(wèn)作業(yè)。你有責(zé)任去問(wèn)你落的作業(yè)是什么。老師并沒(méi)有責(zé)任提醒你落的作業(yè)是什么。
你絕不應(yīng)缺席考試。如果你病得很厲害,要告知老師你不能參加考試。如果老師允許補(bǔ)考,你應(yīng)在返校后的一兩天內(nèi)補(bǔ)上錯(cuò)過(guò)的考試。缺考的唯一可接受的理由是重病。
不要遲到!遲到是很無(wú)禮的行為。同時(shí),遲到還會(huì)影響其他學(xué)生。如果你不得不遲到,動(dòng)作一定要輕。進(jìn)教室前就把書和紙從包里取出來(lái),然后走到你的座位,靜靜地坐好。在美國(guó),進(jìn)教室前不必敲門。如果你經(jīng)常遲到,ELC老師不會(huì)給你好成績(jī)。
書取出來(lái)之后準(zhǔn)備上課。老師不會(huì)天天提醒你把書取出來(lái)。一定要記住準(zhǔn)備好紙和削好的鉛筆。
第三篇
【答案】
44.C 45.D 46.B 47.A
【解析】
44.全篇文章中心講的是北極圈的動(dòng)物是如何保持溫暖的。選項(xiàng)C是正確的。選項(xiàng)A,北45.第二段。土撥鼠有非常厚的毛皮以御寒。選項(xiàng)D是正確的。選項(xiàng)A在第三段,有些動(dòng)物是靠多吃增加脂肪以御寒。選項(xiàng)B在倒數(shù)第二段,小耳朵比大耳朵少釋放熱量。選項(xiàng)C在最后一段,講的不是冬天如何御寒的問(wèn)題。
46.第一段。運(yùn)動(dòng)越少能量消耗得越少,這也是在寒冷地方保暖的一種方式。選項(xiàng)B是正確的。
47.倒數(shù)第二段。作者用一系列的例子說(shuō)明小空間可以保持溫度不釋放掉。選項(xiàng)A是正確的。
【原文大意】
想象一下吧,l0月開始睡,5月醒來(lái)。土撥鼠和松鼠靠睡覺來(lái)保持整個(gè)冬天的溫暖。這段時(shí)間一刻不醒。這種特殊的覺就叫冬眠。睡覺過(guò)程中,心跳頻率下降,動(dòng)物的呼吸也慢了許多,它不四處走動(dòng),所以能量消耗得少。
像土撥鼠和松鼠一樣居住在世界最冷地方的動(dòng)物,它們需要特別的天賦以生存在這樣寒冷的地方。在溫度降到零度以下時(shí)它們的毛皮使它們保持溫暖。就在北極下面的北極圈經(jīng)常是這么冷。
長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的冬季到來(lái)之前,有些動(dòng)物會(huì)不停地吃,很快,它們就會(huì)長(zhǎng)得很胖。冬天到來(lái)時(shí),它們就靠著積攢起來(lái)的脂肪生存了。脂肪幫助動(dòng)物保持溫暖。
北極圈的動(dòng)物還有其他的方法抗擊嚴(yán)寒。例如,北極圈的兔子耳朵非常小。小耳朵可以把熱量擋在體內(nèi),而大耳朵則會(huì)把熱量放出去。小東西總是會(huì)把熱量存在里面。你注意過(guò)嗎?你在非常小的房間里睡覺會(huì)感覺非常熱。
在北極圈難得溫暖。盡管夏季非常短暫,但總是有太陽(yáng)的明亮照射。植物在你眼前迅速成長(zhǎng)。動(dòng)物們?nèi)绫泵礼Z鹿,企盼了整整一年的夏天,他們又可以有鮮草吃了。每分鐘的陽(yáng)光對(duì)它們的生命都是非常重要的。
第四篇
【答案】
48.C 49.A 50.C 51.B
【解析】
48.文章講的是早期的機(jī)動(dòng)車賽。選項(xiàng)A只是一個(gè)例子簡(jiǎn)要說(shuō)明早期車賽的歷史。選項(xiàng)C是正確的。
49.第一段和第二段都提到司機(jī)最擔(dān)心的是汽車會(huì)拋錨,可見汽車拋錨在當(dāng)時(shí)是最常發(fā)生的。因此,如果汽車沒(méi)有完成比賽,很可能就是汽車拋錨了。選項(xiàng)A是正確的。其他選項(xiàng)的問(wèn)題并未在文章中提到。
50.第一段和第二段都提到人們對(duì)沒(méi)有馬拉的車居然能走很是驚訝。至于速度的快慢不在他們關(guān)注的范疇。選項(xiàng)C是正確的。
51.第二段。Glare瞪眼,stare盯著看。文中提到人們的驚異感覺,所以對(duì)這新奇的機(jī)器應(yīng)該是盯著看。選項(xiàng)B是正確的。
【原文大意】
現(xiàn)在,世界最著名的車賽之一印第安納波里(美國(guó)印第安納州首府)500需要約4小時(shí)的時(shí)間完成。如果這種車賽在1895年舉行恐怕需要3天的時(shí)間。這種沒(méi)有馬拉的車就在那一年前不久剛剛發(fā)明。那時(shí)的最高速度比今天要低得多。對(duì)大多數(shù)人來(lái)說(shuō),就看看無(wú)馬的車能走就已經(jīng)很驚異了。司機(jī)最擔(dān)心的是車不要拋錨。
第一次車賽是在1895年芝加哥感恩節(jié)那一天。當(dāng)?shù)鼐用穸季奂诮稚献⒁曋@個(gè)新機(jī)器。比賽的路線是穿過(guò)鎮(zhèn)中心。車從附近的郊區(qū)出發(fā),再返回。整個(gè)賽程約54英里。這個(gè)賽程還不到Indy車賽的十分之一。司機(jī)們用曲柄開動(dòng)引擎,祈禱車千萬(wàn)別拋錨,然后出發(fā)上路。這場(chǎng)車賽的確考驗(yàn)了一些車,它們很可能是承受不了這么高的速度。車賽的勝利者是J.Frank Duryea,他用了7個(gè)小時(shí)多一點(diǎn)的時(shí)間完成了比賽,平均速度是每小時(shí)7.5英里,比現(xiàn)代的跑步馬拉松要慢一些。即便如此,當(dāng)Duryea結(jié)束時(shí),人群瘋狂了。
第五篇
【答案】
52.B 53.C 54.D 55.A
【解析】
52.第一段。Pay his way through school付學(xué)費(fèi)。小男孩挨家賣貨是為了付學(xué)費(fèi)。選項(xiàng)B是正確的。賣貨的過(guò)程當(dāng)中突然發(fā)現(xiàn)口袋里沒(méi)有錢,而賣貨不是為了賺零錢,所以D錯(cuò)誤。
53.第二段。他們?cè)俅蜗嘤鰰r(shí)在醫(yī)院,男孩已成了醫(yī)學(xué)專家。選項(xiàng)C是正確的。醫(yī)生一眼就認(rèn)出了那位婦女,所以不存在二者都變化太大以致互相認(rèn)不出來(lái)的情況(選項(xiàng)A)。選項(xiàng)B與事實(shí)相反。
54.從第一段結(jié)尾到第二段說(shuō)他特別關(guān)注這個(gè)病人,可以看出他是為了報(bào)答。選項(xiàng)D是正
確的。
55.作者在敘述故事時(shí),從男孩本想要頓飯改成一杯水,到婦女給的是牛奶,從醫(yī)生對(duì)婦女的特殊照顧到最后的賬單。可以看出,作者想要說(shuō)的是:好心有好報(bào)。A選項(xiàng)正確。
【原文大意】
一天,一個(gè)男孩正挨家叫賣商品以籌學(xué)費(fèi),突然發(fā)現(xiàn)身上只剩下了一個(gè)一角硬幣,但是他很餓。他決定到下一家討一頓飯。但到了那一家,一位年輕的婦女打開門時(shí),他卻失去了勇氣,他沒(méi)有要吃的,而是要了一杯水。這位婦女覺得他看起來(lái)很餓,便拿給他一大杯牛奶。他慢慢地喝完,然后問(wèn)道,“我欠您多少錢?…‘你什么都不欠我的,”她答道。“我真心地感謝你,”他說(shuō)。
數(shù)年之后,那位婦女病得很厲害,當(dāng)?shù)氐尼t(yī)生把她送到大城市,這里有專門研究她這種少見的疾病的專家。Howard Kelly醫(yī)生被叫來(lái)會(huì)診。當(dāng)他聽到她來(lái)自那個(gè)小鎮(zhèn),立刻起身奔向她的病房。他穿著醫(yī)生的外套去見她。他立即認(rèn)出了她。他回到會(huì)診室,決定要盡一切努力挽救她的生命。從那天起,他給這個(gè)病號(hào)以特別的關(guān)注。經(jīng)過(guò)長(zhǎng)時(shí)期的斗爭(zhēng),終于勝利了。
Kelly醫(yī)生要求辦公室把賬單給他證實(shí)一下,他在賬單旁邊寫了些什么。賬單被送到她的房間。她不敢打開看,知道她要用自己整個(gè)的余生來(lái)還賬。她終于打開來(lái),賬單邊上的字吸引了她:“賬已經(jīng)用一杯牛奶付過(guò)了”。
