questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose

Passage One
Man's story in China began many thousands of years ago. Remains of an early form of man discovered in China, known as Peking Man, indicate that Stone Age men lived in the area as long as 500,000 years ago. During the centuries that followed, their descendants laid the foundations of civilization in China.
Throughout its history, China has been a rich source of inventions. Silk, the compass, tea and porcelain originated there. In addition, they are responsible for the invention of paper and printing. The Chinese had used ink as early as 1 200 B. C. , an excellent type which they made from lampblack and which is known in English as India ink or China ink. By the end of the first century A. D. , the Chinese had invented paper.
The Chinese also invented printing. Early Chinese printing is called block printing. The printer carved raised characters on a block of wood, wet the surface of the characters with ink, and pressed sheets of paper against them. Printers in the 11th century went on to invent movable type of baked clay. The characters of the movable type could be rearranged to form different words and thus be used over and over again. The Chinese alphabet has about 40 thousand characters. Because of the difficulty of producing so many pieces of type, most Chinese printers continued to use block printing.
36. A good synonym for the underlined word "descendants" in paragraph 1 is
A. foreigners
B. following generations
C. enemies
D. fossilized remains

Passage Two
American Blacks experienced a revolution after 1945, a revolution in expectations. Following World War Ⅱ , the steady movement toward first-class citizenship for Black people quickened, with significant actions taking place in courts of law, in voting booths, in restaurants and in the streets of the nation.
A decade of intense civil rights activity was launched in 1954 when the United States Supreme Court declared segregated schools to be unconstitutional. In 1955, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. , effectively organized the Blacks of Atlanta, Georgia, in a bus boycott. The boycott lasted two years, and when it was over, Blacks no longer were degraded by being forced to sit or stand in the rear of buses.
In 1960, a group of Black college students decided that they, as well as white persons, had the right to eat at a lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina. This sit-in sparked an aggressive national movement and, in the next few years, thousands of young men and women--Black and White, North and South--overturned local laws and customs that had maintained segregation. Sit-ins, pray-ins, freedom rides, freedom marches and demonstrations to open all schools to Black children took place across the nation.
40. Several important actions took place to change the status of black people
A. after World War Ⅱ
B. in 1954
C. before 1945
D. in 1960
41. In which city was the bus boycott organized?
A. Georgia.
B. Greensboro.
C. North Carolina.
D. Atlanta.
42. Who are the first to make the success of sit-in become true?
A. Black college students and whites.
B. First-class citizens.
C. The Blacks of Atlanta.
D. Young men and women in Greensboro.
43. The best title for this passage could be
A. Black History
B. Educational Opportunities for Blacks
C. The Fight for Equality
D. Civil Rights Workers of the '60s
Passage Three
People often speak of fire as though it were a living creature--It grows, dances, needs oxygen, feeds on whatever it can find, and then dies. And when a forest fire rages out of control, threatening human lives and homes, it must be fought like a "wild animal. " The fight is often desperate, since firefighters' hest efforts may be dwarfed by the fury of a large fire. But the fire's own traits can be used against it.
The heated air above a fire rises in a pillar of smoke and burnt gases, pulling fresh air in from the sides to replace it. Firefighters use this fact when they "fight fire with fire. " They start a fire well in front of the one which they are fighting. Instead of traveling on in front of the huge fire, the smaller fire is pulled back toward it by the updrafts of the larger blaze. As it travels back to meet the large fire, the smaller backfire burns away the fuel that the forest fire needs to survive.
Even when a backfire has been well set, however, the fire may still win the struggle. The wind which the firefighters used to help them may now become their enemy. When the backfire meets the main fire, before both die for lack of fuel, there is tremendous flame, great heat and wild winds. A strong gust may blow the fire into the treetops beyond the area, giving the fire new fuel and a new life.
44. This passage focuses on
A. how fires start
B. damage caused by fire
C. the fascination of fire
D. fighting forest fires
45. A backfire is started
A. behind a forest fire
B. ahead of a forest fire
C. on the sides of a forest fire
D. all around a forest fire
46. This passage suggests that a fire will travel
A. faster than a horse can run
B. in all directions at the same speed
C. in whatever direction the wind is blowing
D. toward the nearest source of fuel
47. In the last paragraph, the writer again refers to the fire as a living creature by saying
that it
A. can be blown around by the wind
B. dwarfs man's best efforts
C. heats the air above it
D. may still win the struggle
Passage Four
When Abraham Lincoln was a lawyer in rural Illinois, he and a certain judge in town once got to bantering with one another about horse trading. The upshot of the discussion was that they agreed that the next morning, at nine o'clock, they would meet in front of the general store and make a trade. Each would bring a horse, unseen by anyone up to that hour. If either backed out of the deal, he would forfeit $25. The money from each man was held by the local banker.
The next morning, at the appointed hour, the Judge, came up the dirt road, leading the sorriest looking specimen of a horse ever seen in those parts of Illinois. The large crowd viewing the spectacle burst out laughing, already knowing that Abe Lincoln was bound to get the worst of the deal. A poorer horse just couldn't exist anywhere and still be walking.
In a few minutes, however, Mr. Lincoln was seen approaching the general store carrying something quite large and bulky on his shoulders. As he drew nearer, the crowd saw what it was, and great shouts and laughter broke out. The shouts and laughter soon broke into a thunderous roar when Mr. Lincoln, looking carefully and seriously over the Judge's animal, set down his sawhorse (锯木架) , and exclaimed, "Well, Judge, this is the first time I ever got the worst of it in a horse trade. "

B. insulting
C. joking
D. deceiving
Passage Five
Shoes are outer coverings for the foot. They have soles, and most have heels. The upper part of most shoes extend no higher than the ankle. Boots are footwear that reach beyond the ankle. People wear shoes to protect their feet from harsh weather, sharp objects, and uncomfortable surfaces. Shoes are also an important part of people's clothing. As a result, fashion often determines the style of shoes that individuals wear. The desire to be fashionable has led to many unusual shoe styles. In the 1300's, many European men wore shoes called crackowes, which had an extremely long toe. From the 1300's to the 1700's, some European women wore shoes with really thick soles causing walking to be virtually impossible without support. Shoes once worn in the Orient were connected to a stilt(高跷) as high as six inches.
Traditionally, most shoes are made of leather. But many other materials are now used. Including canvas, velvet, and synthetic substances such as plastics. Footwear materials and style vary somewhat, depending on climate, custom, or other differences. Farmers in Netherlands often wear heavy wooden shoes that protect their feet from the damp environment while Japanese wear shoes outside their home but prefer soft slippers at home. In fact, people in some regions often wear foot coverings other than shoes. Some wear sandals during the hot summer and switch to warm boots for the cold winter.
52. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. The history of the shoes.
B. Shoes around the world.
C. The definition of shoes.
D. Shoes and fashion.

54. According to the passage, what is the main reason for people to wear shoes?
A. To look fashionable.
B. To feel comfortable.
C. Because everyone else wears them.
D. To protect their feet.

许多年来,夏威夷的习俗被瞧不起或被忽视。而如今,人们对旧的方式有了新的自豪。孩子们在学习夏威夷语,学习传统的歌舞。在夏威夷大学,夏威夷岛屿的历史和过去的文化也有人感兴趣了。
到岛上来的旅游者想看的也是岛屿伊甸园过去的样子。每天都有来自大陆的众多的旅游者进入夏威夷。现代旅游的标志到处都是。火奴鲁鲁和它的郊区在30年前是一个拥有250 000人口的安静地方。现在却成了拥有800 000居民和旅游者的拥挤的地方了。
若开车环绕瓦胡岛,你会发现许多的海滨已经停止对公众开放了。越来越多的海滨度假胜地在这块还没有遭到破坏的区域建设起来。夏威夷人担心原有的生活方式将发生变化。

中国人还发明了印刷术。早期的中国印刷叫雕版印刷,就是把中国的方块字刻在木板上,字体突出。把表面用墨浸湿,把纸压在上面。到ll世纪又发明了活字制版印刷。这种版是用烤制的泥制作的。这种印刷可将方块字刻重新组合,因此可以反复使用。中文的方块字大约有4万,制作这么多的字很困难,因此大多数的印刷者还沿用雕版印刷。
第二篇

40.A 41.D 42.A 43.C
【解析】
40.第一段。文章说l945年之后、二战之后,美国黑人采取了一系列的行动以改变自身的地位。选项A是正确的。选项c与事实相反,选项B和D分别是一系列运动中的一次。
41.第二段。选项D是正确的。这是马丁·路德·金领导的一次为争取黑人平等的运动,该运动是所有黑人抵制公交公司,不乘坐他们的汽车,以求得废除黑人在公共汽车内只能在后排落座或站着的制度。英文的表达习惯是城市名在前,州名在后,中间通常用逗号隔开。Atlanta,Georgia是佐治亚州亚特兰大市。同样,Greensboro,North Carolina是北卡罗来纳州,格林斯伯罗市。但这个城市开展的是另一个运动。
42.第三段。一群黑人大学生和白人大学生认为黑人与白人一样有权利在餐厅内吃饭。选项A是正确的。
43.全篇提到几次黑人为平等而战的事例,但并不是整个的黑人历史。所以,选项C是正确的。
【原文大意】
1945年之后美国黑人经历了又一次革命,是预期之内的革命。二战之后,为黑人争取上等公民权的运动加速了。其有意义的行动发生在法庭、选举站、餐厅以及国家的大街上。
10年的激烈民权活动在1 954年开始了。这一年美国最高法院宣布有种族隔离的学校是违反宪法的。1 955年,马丁·路德·金组织了佐治亚州亚特兰大市的黑人抵制公交运动。这个抵制运动持续了两年。这个运动结束时,黑人不再被迫站在或只能坐在公交车的后排了。
1960年,一群黑人大学生,也有白人,决定他们有权坐在北卡罗来纳州格林斯伯罗市的午餐柜台前。这一行动得到了全国性的响应。在以后的几年中,数千的年轻男女,包括黑人和白人,北方和南方,推翻了当地的那些种族隔离的法律和习俗。静坐抗议、祈祷抗议、自由乘坐、自由游行、所有的学校都对黑人的孩子开放等活动在全国展开了。
第三篇
【答案】
44.D 45.B 46.C 47.D
【解析】
44.第一段就提到了森林大火,接着谈及一种救森林大火的方法,继而提到彻底灭火的难度。选项D是正确的。其他选项都只是文中涉及的某个部分,过于具体。
45.第二段。In front of the huge fire表明在森林大火的前面。选项B是正确的。
46.第三段。人们可以借助风来灭火,而风也可助长火势。所以火肯定会受风的影响。选项C是正确的。
47.在第一段,作者提到火如同有生命的造物,人类与火的战斗就如同与有生命的野兽作战。最后一段,作为文章的结尾,作者又提到与野兽般的大火之战,人类不一定就是胜者。火可能是赢家,似乎火是有生命的。选项D是正确的。
【原文大意】
人们经常谈论火,似乎它是一个有生命的造物——它成长、跳舞、需要氧气、以它能找到的东西为食,然后死去。但当森林大火失去控制,威胁着人类的生命和房屋时,人们则必须与这“野兽”般的火战斗。然而,这种战斗往往是绝望的。因为大火的愤怒使得消防员们的最大努力变得相形见绌。但火自身的特点可以用来控制它。
火苗之上的热浪在烟柱和燃烧的气体中上升,把新鲜空气从两边拉入然后取代它。不过消防员正是用这个道理“以火治火”。他们在他们正在与之战斗的火的前面再燃起一把火。这个弱势的火会被巨大火苗的上升气流往后拉,而不是在火海的前面往前运动。当它往后退到强势火时,这个弱势的逆火会把森林大火赖以生存的燃料烧光。
即便逆火工作做得很好,大火仍可能赢得这场战斗。消防员本来借以用来帮忙的风此时很有可能成为敌人。当逆火与主火相遇,在两火都因缺少燃料而死亡之前,会有巨大的火苗、高温和狂暴的风。一种强有力的爆发会把火带到远离该地区的树梢上,给火提供新的燃料和新的生命。

48.B 49.A 50.D 51.C
【解析】
48.第一段。两人决定第二天做一笔马的交易。选项B是正确的。
49.Neither…nor两者都不……。从两个人带来的马可以知道,他们二人是在开玩笑,并不是真的做交易。选项A是正确的。
50.两个人带来的都不是正经的马。一个是奇丑无比,一个是玩文字游戏,扛来一个在英文拼写中带有“马”字的锯木架。所以,这篇文章是要引读者发笑。选项D是正确的。
51.根据文章的内容,做交易的二人并不是真的做交易,而是在开玩笑。选项c是正确的。
【原文大意】
当亚伯拉罕·林肯在伊利诺伊州的乡村当律师时,他和镇上的一个法官相互开玩笑说做一笔马的交易。双方讨论的结果是第二天早晨9点钟在大商店前面完成这笔交易。每个人都必须带匹马,这匹马必须是从来没有人见过的。如果谁放弃交易,谁就损失25美元。双方的钱由当地的银行家保管。
第二天早晨,在规定的时间,法官到了肮脏的路上,牵了一匹马,这匹马之丑陋整个伊利诺伊州的所有地方都从未见过。围观的人群立刻爆发出笑声,认为亚伯拉罕·林肯肯定处于这场交易的劣势。因为,比这还要糟糕并且仍能行走的马不可能存在。
几分钟之后,人们看到林肯先生朝着大商场走来,肩上扛着又大又笨重的东西。走近之后,人们看清了,人群爆发出了喊声和笑声,这种喊声和笑声立刻成为雷霆般的吼声。林肯先生仔细而认真地看了法官的马之后,放下自己的锯木架,解释说:“好啦,法官,这是我有生以来第一次在马交易市场中所找到的最糟糕的马。”

鞋是脚的外罩。它有鞋底,大多数有后跟儿。大多数的鞋帮不高过脚腕儿。靴子要高过脚腕儿。人们穿鞋是为了保护自己的脚不受坏天气、尖利的物质以及不舒服的表面伤害。鞋也是人们服装中很重要的一部分。时装经常决定个体所穿鞋的款式。时髦的愿望成就了许多非同一般的鞋的款式。l4世纪,许多欧洲的男性穿着一种叫crackowes的鞋。这种鞋的鞋尖格外长。从l4到18世纪,有些欧洲妇女穿的鞋鞋底特别厚,以至于在没有帮助的情况下行走实际上都是不可能的。在东方的国家,鞋曾经与6英寸高的高跷连在一起。
传统上来说,大部分的鞋都是皮做的。现在有很多材料都可用来做鞋。包括:帆布、丝绒以及合成物,如塑料。鞋的材料及款式有所不同,这取决于气候、风俗及其他的差别。荷兰的农民因为环境潮湿经常穿很重的木鞋,而日本人则在室外穿鞋,在家穿软拖鞋。在有些地区,人们不穿鞋而只是穿裹脚布。有些人盛夏穿凉鞋,严冬穿靴子。

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
Man's story in China began many thousands of years ago. Remains of an early form of man discovered in China, known as Peking Man, indicate that Stone Age men lived in the area as long as 500,000 years ago. During the centuries that followed, their descendants laid the foundations of civilization in China.
Throughout its history, China has been a rich source of inventions. Silk, the compass, tea and porcelain originated there. In addition, they are responsible for the invention of paper and printing. The Chinese had used ink as early as 1 200 B. C. , an excellent type which they made from lampblack and which is known in English as India ink or China ink. By the end of the first century A. D. , the Chinese had invented paper.
The Chinese also invented printing. Early Chinese printing is called block printing. The printer carved raised characters on a block of wood, wet the surface of the characters with ink, and pressed sheets of paper against them. Printers in the 11th century went on to invent movable type of baked clay. The characters of the movable type could be rearranged to form different words and thus be used over and over again. The Chinese alphabet has about 40 thousand characters. Because of the difficulty of producing so many pieces of type, most Chinese printers continued to use block printing.
36. A good synonym for the underlined word "descendants" in paragraph 1 is
A. foreigners
B. following generations
C. enemies
D. fossilized remains
37. The name of an earlier form of man found in China is

Passage Two
American Blacks experienced a revolution after 1945, a revolution in expectations. Following World War Ⅱ , the steady movement toward first-class citizenship for Black people quickened, with significant actions taking place in courts of law, in voting booths, in restaurants and in the streets of the nation.
A decade of intense civil rights activity was launched in 1954 when the United States Supreme Court declared segregated schools to be unconstitutional. In 1955, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. , effectively organized the Blacks of Atlanta, Georgia, in a bus boycott. The boycott lasted two years, and when it was over, Blacks no longer were degraded by being forced to sit or stand in the rear of buses.
In 1960, a group of Black college students decided that they, as well as white persons, had the right to eat at a lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina. This sit-in sparked an aggressive national movement and, in the next few years, thousands of young men and women--Black and White, North and South--overturned local laws and customs that had maintained segregation. Sit-ins, pray-ins, freedom rides, freedom marches and demonstrations to open all schools to Black children took place across the nation.
40. Several important actions took place to change the status of black people
A. after World War Ⅱ
B. in 1954
C. before 1945
D. in 1960
41. In which city was the bus boycott organized?
A. Georgia.
B. Greensboro.
C. North Carolina.
D. Atlanta.
42. Who are the first to make the success of sit-in become true?
A. Black college students and whites.
B. First-class citizens.
C. The Blacks of Atlanta.
D. Young men and women in Greensboro.
43. The best title for this passage could be
A. Black History
B. Educational Opportunities for Blacks
C. The Fight for Equality
D. Civil Rights Workers of the '60s
Passage Three
People often speak of fire as though it were a living creature--It grows, dances, needs oxygen, feeds on whatever it can find, and then dies. And when a forest fire rages out of control, threatening human lives and homes, it must be fought like a "wild animal. " The fight is often desperate, since firefighters' hest efforts may be dwarfed by the fury of a large fire. But the fire's own traits can be used against it.
The heated air above a fire rises in a pillar of smoke and burnt gases, pulling fresh air in from the sides to replace it. Firefighters use this fact when they "fight fire with fire. " They start a fire well in front of the one which they are fighting. Instead of traveling on in front of the huge fire, the smaller fire is pulled back toward it by the updrafts of the larger blaze. As it travels back to meet the large fire, the smaller backfire burns away the fuel that the forest fire needs to survive.
Even when a backfire has been well set, however, the fire may still win the struggle. The wind which the firefighters used to help them may now become their enemy. When the backfire meets the main fire, before both die for lack of fuel, there is tremendous flame, great heat and wild winds. A strong gust may blow the fire into the treetops beyond the area, giving the fire new fuel and a new life.
44. This passage focuses on
A. how fires start
B. damage caused by fire
C. the fascination of fire
D. fighting forest fires
45. A backfire is started
A. behind a forest fire
B. ahead of a forest fire
C. on the sides of a forest fire
D. all around a forest fire
46. This passage suggests that a fire will travel
A. faster than a horse can run
B. in all directions at the same speed
C. in whatever direction the wind is blowing
D. toward the nearest source of fuel
47. In the last paragraph, the writer again refers to the fire as a living creature by saying
that it
A. can be blown around by the wind
B. dwarfs man's best efforts
C. heats the air above it
D. may still win the struggle
Passage Four
When Abraham Lincoln was a lawyer in rural Illinois, he and a certain judge in town once got to bantering with one another about horse trading. The upshot of the discussion was that they agreed that the next morning, at nine o'clock, they would meet in front of the general store and make a trade. Each would bring a horse, unseen by anyone up to that hour. If either backed out of the deal, he would forfeit $25. The money from each man was held by the local banker.
The next morning, at the appointed hour, the Judge, came up the dirt road, leading the sorriest looking specimen of a horse ever seen in those parts of Illinois. The large crowd viewing the spectacle burst out laughing, already knowing that Abe Lincoln was bound to get the worst of the deal. A poorer horse just couldn't exist anywhere and still be walking.
In a few minutes, however, Mr. Lincoln was seen approaching the general store carrying something quite large and bulky on his shoulders. As he drew nearer, the crowd saw what it was, and great shouts and laughter broke out. The shouts and laughter soon broke into a thunderous roar when Mr. Lincoln, looking carefully and seriously over the Judge's animal, set down his sawhorse (锯木架) , and exclaimed, "Well, Judge, this is the first time I ever got the worst of it in a horse trade. "

Passage Five
Shoes are outer coverings for the foot. They have soles, and most have heels. The upper part of most shoes extend no higher than the ankle. Boots are footwear that reach beyond the ankle. People wear shoes to protect their feet from harsh weather, sharp objects, and uncomfortable surfaces. Shoes are also an important part of people's clothing. As a result, fashion often determines the style of shoes that individuals wear. The desire to be fashionable has led to many unusual shoe styles. In the 1300's, many European men wore shoes called crackowes, which had an extremely long toe. From the 1300's to the 1700's, some European women wore shoes with really thick soles causing walking to be virtually impossible without support. Shoes once worn in the Orient were connected to a stilt(高跷) as high as six inches.
Traditionally, most shoes are made of leather. But many other materials are now used. Including canvas, velvet, and synthetic substances such as plastics. Footwear materials and style vary somewhat, depending on climate, custom, or other differences. Farmers in Netherlands often wear heavy wooden shoes that protect their feet from the damp environment while Japanese wear shoes outside their home but prefer soft slippers at home. In fact, people in some regions often wear foot coverings other than shoes. Some wear sandals during the hot summer and switch to warm boots for the cold winter.
52. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. The history of the shoes.
B. Shoes around the world.
C. The definition of shoes.
D. Shoes and fashion.
53. What can be inferred from the passage about different types of shoes?

54. According to the passage, what is the main reason for people to wear shoes?
A. To look fashionable.
B. To feel comfortable.
C. Because everyone else wears them.
D. To protect their feet.
55. What is a type of shoes that is mentioned in the passage?

35.根据上下文,对如此多的度假胜地的建设,对于沙滩的关闭,当地人很担心,不知未来的生活会是怎样的。选项D是正确的。
【原文大意】
夏威夷,这个美国最年轻的州,与大陆的其他州有很多不同的地方。夏威夷的居民是由最初的夏威夷人和后来的移民组成的。在20世纪初,人们开垦菠萝种植园时,住在这儿的人数量不够从事这项工作,所以,来了很多的人,中国人、日本人和葡萄牙人最多。
许多年来,夏威夷的习俗被瞧不起或被忽视。而如今,人们对旧的方式有了新的自豪。孩子们在学习夏威夷语,学习传统的歌舞。在夏威夷大学,夏威夷岛屿的历史和过去的文化也有人感兴趣了。
到岛上来的旅游者想看的也是岛屿伊甸园过去的样子。每天都有来自大陆的众多的旅游者进入夏威夷。现代旅游的标志到处都是。火奴鲁鲁和它的郊区在30年前是一个拥有250 000人口的安静地方。现在却成了拥有800 000居民和旅游者的拥挤的地方了。
若开车环绕瓦胡岛,你会发现许多的海滨已经停止对公众开放了。越来越多的海滨度假胜地在这块还没有遭到破坏的区域建设起来。夏威夷人担心原有的生活方式将发生变化。

第一篇
【答案】
36.B 37.C 38.C 39.D
【解析】
36.后面的“他们的”指的是前面提到的猿人,在他们“以后的世纪中”的人肯定是他们的后人。选项B是正确的。

39.从中国的猿人到中国的丝绸,再到中国的印刷,显而易见是讲的中国历史。选项D是正确的。
【原文大意】
中国的人类史开始于数千年以前。在中国发现的早期人类是北京人,证明这个地区的石器时代的人类开始于50万年前。在这之后的数世纪以后,他们的后代建立了中国文化。
整个历史表明,中国有着丰富的发明。丝绸、指南针、茶以及瓷器都源于此。另外,他们还发明了纸和印刷术。中国人用墨水的历史始于公元前l 200年。这种墨水用灯黑制成,英国人把它叫印度墨或中国墨。公元l世纪末,中国人发明了纸。
中国人还发明了印刷术。早期的中国印刷叫雕版印刷,就是把中国的方块字刻在木板上,字体突出。把表面用墨浸湿,把纸压在上面。到ll世纪又发明了活字制版印刷。这种版是用烤制的泥制作的。这种印刷可将方块字刻重新组合,因此可以反复使用。中文的方块字大约有4万,制作这么多的字很困难,因此大多数的印刷者还沿用雕版印刷。
第二篇
【答案】
40.A 41.D 42.A 43.C
【解析】
40.第一段。文章说l945年之后、二战之后,美国黑人采取了一系列的行动以改变自身的地位。选项A是正确的。选项c与事实相反,选项B和D分别是一系列运动中的一次。
41.第二段。选项D是正确的。这是马丁·路德·金领导的一次为争取黑人平等的运动,该运动是所有黑人抵制公交公司,不乘坐他们的汽车,以求得废除黑人在公共汽车内只能在后排落座或站着的制度。英文的表达习惯是城市名在前,州名在后,中间通常用逗号隔开。Atlanta,Georgia是佐治亚州亚特兰大市。同样,Greensboro,North Carolina是北卡罗来纳州,格林斯伯罗市。但这个城市开展的是另一个运动。
42.第三段。一群黑人大学生和白人大学生认为黑人与白人一样有权利在餐厅内吃饭。选项A是正确的。
43.全篇提到几次黑人为平等而战的事例,但并不是整个的黑人历史。所以,选项C是正确的。
【原文大意】
1945年之后美国黑人经历了又一次革命,是预期之内的革命。二战之后,为黑人争取上等公民权的运动加速了。其有意义的行动发生在法庭、选举站、餐厅以及国家的大街上。
10年的激烈民权活动在1 954年开始了。这一年美国最高法院宣布有种族隔离的学校是违反宪法的。1 955年,马丁·路德·金组织了佐治亚州亚特兰大市的黑人抵制公交运动。这个抵制运动持续了两年。这个运动结束时,黑人不再被迫站在或只能坐在公交车的后排了。
1960年,一群黑人大学生,也有白人,决定他们有权坐在北卡罗来纳州格林斯伯罗市的午餐柜台前。这一行动得到了全国性的响应。在以后的几年中,数千的年轻男女,包括黑人和白人,北方和南方,推翻了当地的那些种族隔离的法律和习俗。静坐抗议、祈祷抗议、自由乘坐、自由游行、所有的学校都对黑人的孩子开放等活动在全国展开了。
第三篇
【答案】
44.D 45.B 46.C 47.D
【解析】
44.第一段就提到了森林大火,接着谈及一种救森林大火的方法,继而提到彻底灭火的难度。选项D是正确的。其他选项都只是文中涉及的某个部分,过于具体。
45.第二段。In front of the huge fire表明在森林大火的前面。选项B是正确的。
46.第三段。人们可以借助风来灭火,而风也可助长火势。所以火肯定会受风的影响。选项C是正确的。
47.在第一段,作者提到火如同有生命的造物,人类与火的战斗就如同与有生命的野兽作战。最后一段,作为文章的结尾,作者又提到与野兽般的大火之战,人类不一定就是胜者。火可能是赢家,似乎火是有生命的。选项D是正确的。
【原文大意】
人们经常谈论火,似乎它是一个有生命的造物——它成长、跳舞、需要氧气、以它能找到的东西为食,然后死去。但当森林大火失去控制,威胁着人类的生命和房屋时,人们则必须与这“野兽”般的火战斗。然而,这种战斗往往是绝望的。因为大火的愤怒使得消防员们的最大努力变得相形见绌。但火自身的特点可以用来控制它。
火苗之上的热浪在烟柱和燃烧的气体中上升,把新鲜空气从两边拉入然后取代它。不过消防员正是用这个道理“以火治火”。他们在他们正在与之战斗的火的前面再燃起一把火。这个弱势的火会被巨大火苗的上升气流往后拉,而不是在火海的前面往前运动。当它往后退到强势火时,这个弱势的逆火会把森林大火赖以生存的燃料烧光。
即便逆火工作做得很好,大火仍可能赢得这场战斗。消防员本来借以用来帮忙的风此时很有可能成为敌人。当逆火与主火相遇,在两火都因缺少燃料而死亡之前,会有巨大的火苗、高温和狂暴的风。一种强有力的爆发会把火带到远离该地区的树梢上,给火提供新的燃料和新的生命。

49.Neither…nor两者都不……。从两个人带来的马可以知道,他们二人是在开玩笑,并不是真的做交易。选项A是正确的。

51.根据文章的内容,做交易的二人并不是真的做交易,而是在开玩笑。选项c是正确的。
【原文大意】
当亚伯拉罕·林肯在伊利诺伊州的乡村当律师时,他和镇上的一个法官相互开玩笑说做一笔马的交易。双方讨论的结果是第二天早晨9点钟在大商店前面完成这笔交易。每个人都必须带匹马,这匹马必须是从来没有人见过的。如果谁放弃交易,谁就损失25美元。双方的钱由当地的银行家保管。
第二天早晨,在规定的时间,法官到了肮脏的路上,牵了一匹马,这匹马之丑陋整个伊利诺伊州的所有地方都从未见过。围观的人群立刻爆发出笑声,认为亚伯拉罕·林肯肯定处于这场交易的劣势。因为,比这还要糟糕并且仍能行走的马不可能存在。
几分钟之后,人们看到林肯先生朝着大商场走来,肩上扛着又大又笨重的东西。走近之后,人们看清了,人群爆发出了喊声和笑声,这种喊声和笑声立刻成为雷霆般的吼声。林肯先生仔细而认真地看了法官的马之后,放下自己的锯木架,解释说:“好啦,法官,这是我有生以来第一次在马交易市场中所找到的最糟糕的马。”

54.第一段。人们穿鞋就是为了保护脚不受伤害。选项D是正确的。

鞋是脚的外罩。它有鞋底,大多数有后跟儿。大多数的鞋帮不高过脚腕儿。靴子要高过脚腕儿。人们穿鞋是为了保护自己的脚不受坏天气、尖利的物质以及不舒服的表面伤害。鞋也是人们服装中很重要的一部分。时装经常决定个体所穿鞋的款式。时髦的愿望成就了许多非同一般的鞋的款式。l4世纪,许多欧洲的男性穿着一种叫crackowes的鞋。这种鞋的鞋尖格外长。从l4到18世纪,有些欧洲妇女穿的鞋鞋底特别厚,以至于在没有帮助的情况下行走实际上都是不可能的。在东方的国家,鞋曾经与6英寸高的高跷连在一起。
传统上来说,大部分的鞋都是皮做的。现在有很多材料都可用来做鞋。包括:帆布、丝绒以及合成物,如塑料。鞋的材料及款式有所不同,这取决于气候、风俗及其他的差别。荷兰的农民因为环境潮湿经常穿很重的木鞋,而日本人则在室外穿鞋,在家穿软拖鞋。在有些地区,人们不穿鞋而只是穿裹脚布。有些人盛夏穿凉鞋,严冬穿靴子。
