第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題; 每小題2分, 滿分40分）
閱讀下列短文, 從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中, 選出最佳選項(xiàng), 并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。
A
What, besides children, connects mothers around the world and across the sea of time? It’s chicken soup, one famous American food expert says.
Chicken soup has been the medicine for those
weak in body and spirit. Mothers passed their knowledge on to ancient
writers of
Among the ancients, Aristotle thought highly of the poultry (家禽). Chickens got praise in the book of Genesis (圣經(jīng)?創(chuàng)世紀(jì)), too, where it is written that birds and fish were created on the fifth day, a day before four-legged animals.
But according to Mimi Sheraton, who has spent much of the past three years exploring the world of chicken soup, much of the reason for chicken’s real or imagined medical powers comes from its color. Her new book, The Whole World Loves Chicken Soup, looks at the beloved and mysterious soup. There has been a lot of feeling that white-colored foods are easier to eat for the weak women and the ill.
Besides, “Soups or anything that was eaten
with a spoon are considered comfort foods,” according to Sheraton. “I
love soup and I love making soup and as I was collecting recipes (處方) I began to see this as an international
dish. ” Sheraton said from her
A recent survey reported that 51 percent of the people said they bought chicken because it was healthier, 50 percent said it could be used for many purposes, 41 percent said it was economical and 46 percent said it was low in fat.
56. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. how mothers in different nations keep in contact with each other
B. how different diseases can be cured by chicken soup
C. why chicken soup has always been so popular
D. what kind of disease can be cured by chicken soup
57. The statements about the book The Whole World Loves Chicken Soup is correct except that ______.
A. it’s a book about recipes of cooking chicken
B. its author introduces it from some new angles
C. it’s a book resulting from a research of 3 years
D. making soup is a hobby of its author
58. According to the passage, ______ does NOT contribute to the popularity of chicken soup.
A. tradition B. taste C. color D. spoon
59. We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. according to Genesis，pigs were created on the fourth day by God
B. versatility (多功能性) is the biggest reason why people buy chicken
C. cooking chicken soup is what mothers in the world have in common
D. the medical powers of chicken soup are all imaginary

If you and your friends wish to share a secret, you can write it in code, and no one else will be able to read it. Codes are one way of writing in secret. Ciphers (暗碼) are another. In a code each word is written as a secret code word or code number. In a cipher each letter is changed.
Codes and ciphers have played an important role in
the history of the world. Julius Caesar, the Roman ruler who defeated almost
all the countries in
Storekeepers use codes to mark their goods. The codes show how much was paid for the goods or when they were added to the stock. Businessmen use codes to hide plans from their business enemies. Sometimes personal letters or diaries are written in code. Many people enjoy figuring out codes and ciphers simply as a hobby.
In the 16th century, codes and ciphers were very popular among scientists. They wrote messages to each other in code so that no one else would learn their secrets. Geronimo Gardano, an Italian astrologer (星相家), mathematician, and doctor, invented the trellis cipher. He took two sheets of paper and cut exactly the same holes in each one. Then he sent one sheet, which he called a trellis, to a friend and kept the other for himself. Whenever he wanted to write a message, he put his trellis over a clean sheet of paper and wrote the secret message through the holes. Then he removed the trellis and filled the rest of the paper with words that would make sense. When his friend received it, he put his trellis over the writing and read the secret message.
60. The best title of this passage is ______.
A. Codes and Ciphers B. Differences between Codes and Ciphers
C. History of Codes and Ciphers D. Inventors of Codes and Ciphers
61. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Ciphers can be broken or figured out more easily than codes.
B. You could read some words in Geronimo’ s letter without his trellis.
C. The first person who ever used a cipher in history was Julius Caesar.
D. Fondness of using codes was the hobby of the scientists in the 16th century.
62. According to Geronimo Cardano, a trellis is ______.
A. a piece of paper with many small holes
B. a secret message with a lot of small holes
C. a letter with unreadable words and sentences
D. a sheet of paper with groups of Arabic figures
63. Codes and ciphers are used for the following purpose except _____.
A. military affairs B. commercial secrets
C. scientific achievements D. personal enjoyment
C

A local community college professor decided to fight back. “The price of books for our students is just getting higher and higher and, combined with the rising cost of tuition, it’s killing these kids,” said Peter Jason, Ph.D. “Remember, students are one of the poorest groups of people in America. Almost half of them have at least one part-time job. In fact, one of my students has three jobs. She is a part-time sales clerk at a clothing store three days a week, then works three evenings a week as a pizza cook, and on weekends she does manicures(修指甲)at a beauty salon. And she still manages to have a high GPA(grade point average)and go to school full-time. ”
Textbook prices are traditionally high. Adding to that problem, many college instructors change textbooks year after year; they either upgrade to a new edition or switch to an entirely different textbook. This further hurts students because if an instructor no longer uses a particular textbook, that book has no resale value.
Dr. Jason decided to make life a little easier and a lot cheaper for his students by writing his own book on public speaking. “Many books have an increased price because of bells and whistles：CD-ROMs, lots of color photographs and lots of graphics. I talked to my students, and many of them like me prefer to keep things simple. So, during a vacation a few years ago, I wrote my own textbook. I made sure that it wasn’t long-winded. I called it Successful Public Speaking：How To Be Brief, Concise and to the Point. ”
“Compared to most other public speaking books, mine is half the number of pages, and one-third the price. That is, $30 instead of $90. Plus, it is published in a three-ring binder format. So, when I wrote a second edition last year, students only had to buy the 35 new pages and delete 35 of the original pages. For only $7.00, they had upgraded to the new edition. I’ve had great feedback from my students about this loose-leaf concept. Maybe the word will get out, and more writers and publishers will try it. ”
68. The reason why some students have to work is that ______.
A. they have to support themselves B. they lack the money for their education
C. the cost of living is rising rapidly D. a high GPA is required for further studies
69. More money is spent on textbooks because ______.
A. publishers pay more to the writers B. students need textbooks with pictures
C. textbook prices are traditionally high D. textbooks may be changed every year
70. Dr. Jason wrote his own textbook to ______.
A. make it short B. increase its price
C. make it easy to update D. add CD-ROMs and photos
71. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
A. a college professor objects to writing textbooks
B. instructors don’ t use particular textbooks any longer
C. more writers and publishers will write shorter textbooks
D. the loose-leaf concept is well received among the students

When I was in seventh grade, I volunteered to work at a local hospital in my town about thirty to forty hours a week during the summer. Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never had any visitors, and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. But he responded with only an occasional squeeze（壓榨）of my hand. Mr. Gillespie was in a coma(昏迷).
I left for a week to vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was gone, I didn’t have the nerve to ask any of the nurses where he was. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year.
Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face. When I realized who it was, my eyes were filled with tears. He was alive! I got up the nerve to ask him if his name was Mr. Gillespie, and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an uncertain look on his face, he replied yes. I explained how I knew him. His eyes welled up with tears.
He began to tell me how, as he lay there comatose, he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angel, not a person, who was there with him.
Then he told me about his life and what happened to him to put him in the coma. At last we said our good-byes.
Although I haven’t seen him since, he fills my heart with joy every day. I will never forget him and what he did for me: he made me an angel.
72. From the passage we know the author ______.
A. was Mr. Gillespie’s best workmate B. may be the son of Mr. Gillespie
C. may feel happy anytime he thinks of Mr. Gillespie
D. must turn out to be an angel after he met Mr. Gillespie
73. The underlined word welled up in the passage probably means ______.
A. flowed B. started C. rose D. shut
74. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. The author didn’t dare to ask the nurses why Mr. Gillespie was gone.
B. Mr. Gillespie was a dishonest man.
C. The author’s voice and touch may keep Mr. Gillespie alive.
D. Mr. Gillespie knew the author well.
75. Which of the following proverbs can best describe the passage?
A. Fortune favors the brave. B. To kill two birds with one stone.
C. A friend in need is a friend indeed. D. Helping others is helping ourselves.
