Ⅲ阅读理解（共20小题;每小题1分，满分20分）
A
A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eyes. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for work so he asked the wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. The mother, preoccupied in the kitchen, totally forgot the matter.
The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle and, fascinated with its color, drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed, the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband.
When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just four words. "I Love You Darling"
The husband's totally unexpected reaction is proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he have taken time to keep the bottle away, this will not have happened. No point in attaching blame. She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.
Sometimes we spend time asking who to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. We miss out some warmth in human relationship in giving each other support. After all, shouldn't forgiving someone we love be the easiest thing in the world to do? Treasure what you have. Don't multiply pain, and suffering by holding on to forgiveness.
If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems in the world.
36. Why was the two-year-old boy dead?
A. He was deadly ill.
B. His mother killed him.
C. He killed himself.
D. He drank some medicine by mistake.
37. How did the mother probably feel at the boy’s death?
A. sad and calm.
B. surprised and terrified.
C. angry and sad.
D. surprised and annoyed.
38. Seeing his dead son, why did the man said ―I Love You Darling‖ to his wife?
A. Because his wife did the right thing.
B. Because he loved his wife more.
C. Because he wanted to comfort her.
D. Because he owned his wife an apology.
39. From the second paragraph, we know the boy was very ________.
A. naughty
B. lovely
C. careful
D. curious
40. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To persuade readers to forgive people.
B. To tell us a touching love story.
C. To warn the readers to be cautious.
D. To call on readers to show love to people.
B
As an experienced photojournalist in Nashville, Tennessee, I was hired by USA Today newspaper to photograph a spinal bifida (脊柱畸形) corrective surgical procedure. It was to be performed on a twenty-one week old fetus（胎儿）in uterus（子宫）at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. At that time, in 1999, twenty-one weeks in uterus was the earliest that the surgical team would consider for surgery. The worst possible outcome would be that the surgery would cause premature delivery, and no child born earlier than twenty-three weeks had survived.
The tension could be felt in the operating room as the surgery began. A typical C-section
incision(切口) was made to access the uterus, which was then lifted out and laid at the junction of the mother's thighs. The entire procedure would take place within the uterus, and no part of the child was to breach the surgical opening. During the procedure, the position of the fetus was adjusted by gently manipulating the outside of the uterus. The entire surgical procedure on the child was completed in one hour and thirteen minutes. When it was over, the surgical team breathed a sigh of relief, as did I.
As a doctor asked me what speed of film I was using, out of the corner of my eye I saw the uterus shake, but no one's hands were near it. It was shaking from within. Suddenly, an entire arm thrust out of the opening, then pulled back until just a little hand was showing. The doctor reached over and lifted the hand, which reacted and squeezed the doctor's finger. As if testing for strength, the doctor shook the tiny fist. Samuel held firm. I took the picture! Wow! It happened so fast that the nurse standing next to me asked, "What happened?" "The child reached out," I said. "Oh. They do that all the time," she responded.
The surgical opening to the uterus was closed and the uterus was then put back into the mother and the C-section opening was closed.
It was ten days before I knew if the picture was even in focus. To ensure no digital manipulation of images before they see them, USA Today requires that film be submitted unprocessed. When the photo editor finally phoned me he said, "It's the most incredible picture I've ever seen."
41. In 1999，people believed that it was ________.
A. possible for a fetus 21 weeks born to survive
B. likely for a fetus born 21 weeks to become deformed
C. right time for a fetus born 21 weeks to receive an operation
D. risky for a fetus 21 weeks in uterus to receive an operation
42. From the second paragraph, we can see that the surgery was ______.
A. challenging but successful
B. demanding and unsuccessful
C. simple and short
D. long-lasting and difficult
43. The underlined ―It‖ in paragr aph 3 refers to ________.
A. the shaking of the uterus
B. the arm of the fetus
C. the taking of the picture
D. the head of the fetus
44. What can we learn about the author?
A. He was an experienced interviewer.
B. He was a wonderful picture editor.
C. He was an excellent picture journalist.
D. He was a very famous child doctor.
45. From the editor said in the last paragraph, we know the editor was very ______.
A. disappointed
B. satisfied
C. annoyed
D. surprised

Founded two years ago, All Green Electronics Recycling is a full-service electronics recycler and collector.

All Green Electronics Recycling announces its new national headquarters’ grand opening on January 13, 2011 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. ---- a Green Carpet Event ---- followed by a free, three-day electronics recycling event aimed at giving back to the local community in Orange County.

In fact, those with at least 10 computers, monitors and televisions can go to:https://www.360docs.net/doc/a311806485.html, to schedule a free pick up in many areas.
Unlike many of its competitors, the company sorts and separates all e-waste within their warehouse and does not ship anything overseas for processing. It also ensures that any electronics placed in its care will never find its way into a landfill.
All Green already has a recycling facility in Sacramento and is set to expand its New York operations within 60 days.

After lots of hype, the new iPhone 3GS has arrived, boasting an improved camera, better battery life, and speedier performance. But is it a must?
The iPhone 3GS is available in two versions: 16GB and 32GB. The 16GB version costs $199, while the 32GB version costs $299. From the outside, the iPhone 3GS looks exactly like the iPhone 3G. Like the iPhone 3G, the new model comes in black and white versions, and sports a 3.5-inch touch screen. Most of the changes to the iPhone 3GS have been made on the inside. Apple says that battery life is better, but the biggest boost is in the iPhone's speed: The iPhone 3GS runs twice as fast as the iPhone 3G. Instead of a lot of software installed on it, the iPhone 3GS comes with the most recent version of the iPhone Software -- version 3.0 – installed, but it does come with easy access to Apple's App Store. The speedier performance of the iPhone 3GS extends to surfing the Web, too. You can see entire Web pages, and can zoom in and out with ease.
The notable new messaging feature on the iPhone 3GS is support for MMS. You can send pictures and videos by SMS, rather than having to send them via e-mail. Other new and very-handy e-mail features include the ability to search through your e-mail messages and contacts, as well as the option to use a landscape-oriented keyboard when composing messages.
The camera has been upgraded from 2 megapixels to 3 megapxiels, and adds auto-focus. If you already own an iPhone 3G, the iPhone 3GS may not be worth the additional cost, since you can get many of its cool features for free with the iPhone 3.0 software upgrade. But if you've been using an older iPhone or smart phone, or are new to the smart phone world, the iPhone 3GS will amaze you with its speed and plentiful features.
51. The difference between 3G and 3GS lies mainly in ________.
A. their colors
B. their outside shapes
C. their screens
D. their batteries and speeds
52. What can we infer from the second paragraph about 3G?
A. It offers an easy access to the web pages.
B. It has two versions: either black or white.
C. In spite of slow speed, it functions the same as 3GS.
D. It has the latest iPhone software installed.
53. What does MMS probably refer to in the passage?
A. Multi-media Messaging Service.
B. Membership Management System.
C. Major Messaging Software.
D. Multi-Media Software Store.
54. According to the text, what is the notable advantage 3GS has in messaging?
A. Pictures and videos can be sent more quickly.
B. Pictures and videos can be sent through SMS.
C. It’s more convenient to send and receive messages.
D. It’s more convenient to compose messages via keys.
55. What is the best title of the text?
A. 3GS is a must nowadays.
B. 3GS is the best choice nowadays.
C. Is 3GS a must nowadays?
D. Is 3GS worth your money?

Recently, children's literature(文学) has become more and more popular. In fact, children's literature has been welcomed by both children and adults. People have tried to find out why adults love children's literature just like children themselves. But there is no final answer.
Children's literature is very different from adults' literature. Most of it is fantasy(幻想). That means children can use their imagination. They can enjoy the fantasy world, which is never boring. The most important thing is that the world is bright and hopeful. In the fantasy world, dead people can be alive again and broken legs can grow once more. Right always beats wrong in the end.
Children's literature can also influence children a lot in education. When they read, their knowledge is increased and children know more about the truth.. For a child who just learns to read, understanding the meaning of a word may be greater than learning the word itself.
Children's literature is not only for children. A large number of adults like it too. Not only young adults, parents and teachers, but also other people of all ages enjoy it. Both children and adults who love children's literature can get much pleasure from it.

Are (A)morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. (B)In my early 20, I rarely went to bed before midnight, and I would almost always get up late the next morning.
But after a while I couldn’t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity was almost always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was (C) always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed me that I was using the wrong strategy.
The most common wrong strategy is this: You assume that if you’re going to get up earlier, you’d better go to bed earlier. I t sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail.
There are two main schools(流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you’re tired and get u p when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both of them are
wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at set hours, you’ll sometimes go to bed when you aren’t sleepy enough. (B)You’re wasting time lie in bed awake and not being asleep.
(D)If your sleep is based on what your body tells you, you’ll probably be sleeping more than you need. Also, your mornings may be less predictable if you’re getting up at different times.
The solution for me has been to combine both methods. I go to bed when I’m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 am), but I go to bed at different times every night — sometimes at 9:30pm, and other times at midnight. Most of the time I go to bed between 10-11 pm.
However, going to bed only when I’m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning is my way. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.
