二、阅读理解

Whoever has made a voyage up the Hudson River must remember the Catskill Mountains. They are a branch of the great Appalachian family, and can be seen to the west rising up to a noble height and towering over the surrounding country. When the weather is fair and settled, they are clothed in blue and purple, and print their beautiful shapes on the clear evening sky, but sometimes when it is cloudless, gray steam gathers around the top of the mountains which, in the last rays of the setting sun, will shine and light up like a crown of glory(华丽的皇冠).

At the foot of these mountains, a traveler may see light smoke going up from a village.

In that village, and in one of the houses (which, to tell the exact truth, was sadly time-worn and weather-beaten), there lived many years ago, a simple, good-natured fellow by the name of Rip Van Winkle.

Rip’s great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money-making labor. It could not be from lack of diligence, for he could sit all day on a wet rock and fish without saying a word, even though he was not encouraged by a single bite. He would carry a gun on his shoulder for hours, walking through woods and fields to shoot a few birds or squirrels. He would never refuse to help a neighbor, even in the roughest work. The women of the village, too, used to employ him to do such little jobs as their less helpful husbands would not do for them. In a word, Rip was ready to attend to everybody’s business but his own.

If left to himself, he would have whistled life away in perfect satisfaction; but his wife was always mad at him for his idleness(懒散). Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was endlessly going, so that he was forced to escape to the outside of the house—the only side which, in truth, belongs to a henpecked husband. 21．Which of the following best describes the Catskill Mountains?

A. They are on the west of the Hudson River.

B. They are very high and beautiful in this area.

C. They can be seen from the Appalachian family.

D. They gather beautiful clouds in blue and purple.

22．The hero of the story is probably ______.

A. hard-working and likes all kinds of work

B. idle and hates all kinds of jobs

C. simple, idle but very dutiful

D. gentle, helpful but a little idle

23．The underlined words “henpecked husband” in the last paragraph probably means a man who _______.

A. likes hunting

B. is afraid of hens

C. loves his wife

D. is afraid of his wife

24．What would be the best title for the text?

A. Catskill Mountains.

B. A Mountain Village.

C. Rip Van Winkle.

D. A Dutiful Husband.

What benefits can you have from a film? A well-made film offers a whole world of things to watch. First there are the story aspects —the plot, characters, dialogue and themes. Then there are the technical aspects — the camera work, cuttings and special effects. And there are many other things, like the credits, musical score and the acting. A well-made film offers much more than you see in one viewing (观看).

Films are a means o f communication. They can tell you things, just as newspapers do, or television, or any other means of communication. Sometimes they communicate important things to you, like ideas or lifestyles or ways of looking at the world. Sometimes people are aware of this, and sometimes not. The more you are aware of this, the better you are.

Notice, for example, the way films sometimes affect fashion. A star dresses or wears her hair in a certain way, and suddenly everyone is imitating (模仿) her. Boys in the 1950s could sometimes be seen wearing black leather jackets, idling (闲逛) on street corners and smoking cigarettes. They were imitating Marion Brando. His films taught them a certain way to behave.

Films can also teach politics. In Star Wars, the heroes were a bunch of lovable incompetents (无能者) fighting with guts (胆量) and not muc h else. They were, in fact, rather like the British in the early days of WW II. Their enemies, like the Nazis, had a big advantage in equipment and numbers of troops, and they were like the Nazis in discipline and heartlessness too. The whole film, in fact, was a re-run(重演) of WW II, and taught values like faith and love of liberty. This is all to the good, but the point is, did you notice it?

25．All of the following are mentioned as noticeable aspects of a film EXCEPT________.

A. the list of names of actors and directors，etc.

B. the cost of a film

C. the music for a film

D. the language used in a film

26．The last sentence in Paragraph 1 probably means ________.

A. a high quality film can be appreciated repeatedly from different angles

B. a good film always attracts a lot of viewers

C. a well made film usually has more than one theme

D. one can never find out how many characters there are in a good film

27．It can be inferred from the passage that in his film，Marion Brando was ________.

A. a motorist who always wore a black leather jacket

B. a homeless man who died of excessive smoking

C. a rebellious man during WWⅡ

D. an idler who didn't have any serious things to do

28．Star Wars is a film________.

A. about WWⅡ

B. for politics

C. reflecting WWⅡ

D. for peace lovers

Norm Pethrick, a 36-year-old man in Australia’s northern city Darwin, was praised on Thursday for jumping onto a crocodile’s back to save his wife Wendy at Litchfield National Park, a popular tourist spot southwest of Darwin, a local newspaper reported.

Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (扑), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater.

Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free.

Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers.

“This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.

He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husband’s “quick and diligent actions”. Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria on the teeth of the crocodile.

34．Today many people say that women have the same chance as men in society. But this was not always so. In the past, women all over the world had to fight to get the same chance as men in education and jobs. Many people said that women should not receive much education because they would not do as well as men when they went to work.

One woman who showed that women should have the same chance was Marie, a scientist. In the 1800s scientists

knew that a metal, uranium, gave off radiation. They also knew how much radiation came from his element. But they didn’t know what this radiation was like; they wondered why and how uranium gave off radiation. Marie Curie set out to answer these questions. In one of her experiments she was studying a certain material which, she knew, contained uranium, But it gave off 4 times as much radiation as usually does. What could explain this fact? Marie Curie thought that there must be another source of radiation in this material.

In 1898 Marie Curie set out to find out t his new source of radiation, which she named “radium”. Her husband, who was also a scientist, helped her. They set up a laboratory in an old building behind a school. For four years Curies searched, doing many experiments, And one morning in 1902 Marie found the source of the radiation. Marie Curie proved to the world that there was element that gave off radiation. And she also proved to the world that, if women are given truly equal chance, they can really help society.

If you have decided to take some English courses in the UK, there are some exams that you have to take to determine which classes you should be taking. The first exam that you have to take is the Key English Test, which determines how well you can handle speaking English on a day-to-day basis along with written English skills.

The KET has three parts. They are the basic reading and writing test, the listening exam and the speaking exam. Once you have passed this, you can take the PET exam, which stands for the Preliminary English Test. This test is just for people who already have both basic oral and written skills.

If you can read such items as newspapers, signs, magazines and books, you may be ready to take the next step. Try practicing your writing skills as well and when you think you have good enough writing skills, take this test. There are three sections to this test, the reading, writing and spoken English comprehension skills.

Once you have successfully passed the PET test, you can then move on to the more advanced classes and tests, like the FCE, which is the First Certificate Exam. This exam is harder and more advanced than the other tests. If your job depends on English speaking or writing, then this test is a must to pass. You will need to have passed the last two tests in order to take this one. You will also need to have more of a background when it comes to the English language. By passing the FCE, you have showed that your English speaking ability is of high level.

66．How can we keep our personal information off the Internet?

As is reported , more and more people are annoyed by strangers because our personal information ,such as phone numbers, Emails and so on, is exposed to the Internet．

It’s almost impossible to keep all personal information off the internet．However, we can take some measures to minimize the amount of information we reveal as we travel the internet．

First, shopping online is the ultimate in convenience, but we muse make sure that the checkout page on the site is secure．Secondly, we can only provide information to sites that promise not to share it without our permission and avoid giving permission to share our information with "selected partners"．Besides, we shouldn’t post too much information on social networking sites, message boards and chat rooms．And chat rooms are meant for sharing．And if we blog, we should be careful not to reveal too much about ourselves．

Obviously, the larger an online presence we have, the more information about us there is going to be online．An online presence is not necessarily a bad thing, as it can open a whole world of opportunities．
