二、阅读理解、完形填空题(共5道小题)
41 When my
friend asked me, ―What will make this love last?‖
I ran through all the obvious reasons: commitment,
shared interests, unselfishness, physical
attraction, communication. Yet there’s more. We
still have fun. Spontaneous good
times.
Yesterday, after slipping the rubber band off the
rolled up newspaper, Scott flipped it playfully at
me, which led to
an all-out war. Last Saturday
at the grocery, we split the list and raced each
other to see who could make it to the checkout
first. Even washing dishes can be a blast. We
enjoy simply being together.
And there
are surprises. One time I came home to find a note
on the front door that led me to another note,
then
another, until I reached the walk-in
closet. I opened the door to find Scott holding a
―pot of gold‖ (my cooking kettle) and
the
―treasure‖ of a gift package. Sometimes I leave
him notes on the mirror and little presents under
his pillow.
There is understanding. I
understand why he must play basketball with the
guys. And he understands why, once a
year, I
must get away from the house, the kids—and even
him—to meet my sisters for a few days of nonstop
talking and
laughing.
There is
sharing. Not only do we share household worries
and parental burdens – we also share ideas. Scott
came
home from a convention last month and
presented me with a thick historical novel. Though
he prefers thrillers and science
fiction, he
had read the novel on the plane. He touched my
heart when he explained it was because he wanted
to be able
to exchange ideas about the book
after I’d read it.
There is
forgiveness. When I’m embarrassingly loud and
crazy at parties, Scott forgives me. When he
confessed
losing some of our savings in the
stock market, I gave him a hug and said, ―It’s
okay. It’s only money.‖

42. When Bill was
very young, they had been in love. Many nights
they had spent walking, talking, together. Then
something not very important had come between
them, and they didn’t speak. Impulsively, she had
married a man she
thought she loved. Bill went
away, bitter about women. Yesterday, walking
across Washington Square, she saw him for the
first time in years.
―Bill Walker,‖
she said. He stopped. At first he did not
recognize her, to him she looked so old. ―Mary!‖
Unconsciously, she lifted her face as though
wanting a kiss, but he held out his hand. She
took it. ―I live in New York
now,‖ she said.
―Oh‖ — smiling politely. Then a little frown came
quickly between his eyes. ―Always wondered what
happened to you, Bill.‖ ―I’m a lawyer. Nice
firm, way downtown.‖ ―Married yet?‖ ―Sure. Two
kids.‖
A great many people went past
them through the park. It was late afternoon.
Nearly sunset. Cold.
―And your
husband?‖ he asked her. ―We have three children.
I work in the bursar’s office at Columbia.‖
―You’re looking very …‖ (he wanted to say old)
―…well,‖ he said.
She understood. She
had been older than he then in Ohio.
―We live on Central Park West,‖ she said. ―Come
and see us sometime.‖
―Sure,‖ he
replied. ―You and your husband must have dinner
with my family some night. Any night. Lucille
and I’d love to have you.‖
The
leaves fell slowly from the trees in the Square.
Fell without wind. She felt a little sick.
―We’d love it,‖ she answered. ―There’s my bus,‖
she said. He held out his hand. ―Good-bye.‖
―When…‖ she wanted to say, but the bus was ready
to pull off. Suddenly she shrieked very loudly.
―Good-bye!‖
But the bus door had closed.
The bus started. She lost sight of Bill.
Then she remembered she had forgotten to give him
her address — or to ask
him for his — or tell
him that her youngest boy was named Bill, too.

43.
The dog, called Prince, was an intelligent animal
and a slave to Williams. From morning till night,
when
Williams was at home, Prince never left
his sight, practically ignoring all other members
of the family. The dog had a
number of clearly
defined duties and, like the good pupil he was,
Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his
abilities.
At nine every morning,
Prince ran off to the store in the village,
returning shortly with William’s daily paper and
William’s favorite tobacco. A gundog by breed,
Prince possessed a large soft mouth specially
evolved for the safe carrying
of hunted
creatures, so the paper and the tobacco came to no
harm, never even showing a tooth mark.
Williams was an engine driver, and he wore a blue
uniform which smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had
to work at
odd times ―days‖, ―late days‖ or
―nights‖. Over the years Prince got to know these
periods of work and rest, knew when
his master
would leave the house and return, and he never
wasted this knowledge. If Williams overslept,
Prince barked at
the bedroom door until he
woke, much to the annoyance of the family.
One evening William slipped and fell on the icy
pavement somewhere between the village and his
home. He was
so badly shaken that he stayed in
bed for three days; and not until he got up and
dressed again did he discover that he had
lost
his wallet. The house was turned upside down in
the search, but the wallet was not found. However,
five days after the
fall, Prince dropped the
wallet into William’s hand. Very muddy, stained
and wet through, the little case still contained
fifty-three pounds, and William’s driving
license. Where the dog had found it no one could
tell, but found it he had
recognized it
probably by the faint oily smell on the worn
leather. [共5题]
(1)How did the dog perform his
duties? [本题2分]
(A) He was delighted to show
them off.
(B) He often messed things up.
(C) He was reluctant to do them.
(D)
He had few opportunities to do them.
你选择的答案:
A [正确]
(2)According the passage, gundogs

runners of all dogs

them
(D) are loyal friends to their master
你选择的答案: C [正确]
(3)As a result of
Williams’ work __________. [本题2分]
(A) he
did not get enough sleep
(B) there was an
oily smell from his clothes
(C) the dog
grew used to traveling by train
(D) the dog
was confused about the time of the day
你选择的答案: B [正确]
(4)It upset William’s
wife and family when __________. [本题2分]
(A)
Williams was on his night shift
(B) the dog
made too much noise in the house
(C)
Williams made them all get up early
(D) the
dog would only follow Williams’ order
你选择的答案:
B [正确]
(5)Why didn’t Williams realize his
loss for several days? [本题2分]
(A) Because
he thought his wife had kept it for him.
(B) Because he lost his conscious all that time.
(C) Because he thought the wallet was in the
house.
(D) Because he had no occasion to
feel in his pockets.
你选择的答案: D [正确]

About ten men in every hundred suffer from colour
blindness in some way; women are luckier only
about one
in two hundred is affected in this
manner. There are different forms of color
blindness. A man may not be able to see deep
red. He may think that red, orange and yellow
are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot
tell the difference
between blue and green. In
rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in
shades of green---a strange world indeed.
In certain occupations colour blindness can be
dangerous and candidates are tested most
carefully. Colour
blindness in human beings is
a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there
are millions of very small things called
―cones‖. These help to see in a bright light
and to tell the difference between colours. There
are also millions of ―rods‖ but
these are used
for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us
shape but not colour. Wait until it is dark
tonight, and then
go outside. Look round you
and try to see what colors you can recognize.
Birds and animals which hunt at night
have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so
they cannot see colours.
As far as we know,
bats and adult owls cannot see colours at all only
light and dark shapes. Similarly cats and dogs
cannot
see colours as well as we can.
Insects can see ultraviolet rays which are
invisible to us, and some of them can even see
X-rays. The wings of a
moth may seem grey and
dull to us, but to insects they may appear
beautiful, showing colours which we cannot see.
Scientists know that there are other colours
around us which insects can see but which we
cannot see. Some insects have
favorite
colours. Mosquitoes like blue, but do not like
yellow. A red light will not attract insects but a
blue lamp will.
(1)Which of the following is
true about the people who suffer from colour
blindness? [本题2分]
(A) Some of them may see
everything in shades of green.
(B) Few of
them can tell the difference between blue and
green.
(C) Few of them may think that red,
orange and yellow are all shades of green.
(D) Very few of them may think that everything in
the world is in green.
你选择的答案: D [正确]
(2)When millions of rods in our eyes are at
work in darkness we can see __________. [本题2分]

(C) shapes only
(D) both A and C
你选择的答案: C [正确]
(3)According to the
passage, bats and adult owls cannot see colours
because __________.
(A) they hunt at night
(B) they cannot see light (C) they have no rods
(D) they have no cones
你选择的答案: D [正确]
(4)According to the passage, dogs and cats
__________. [本题2分]
(A) as well as human
beings can not see some colours
(B) have
fewer cones than human beings
(C)
have less rods than human beings
(D) can
see colours as well as human beings
你选择的答案: B
[正确]
(5)Which of the following is NOT true
about insects? [本题2分]
(A) Insects can see
more colours than human beings.
(B) Insects
can see ultraviolet rays which are invisible to
men.
(C) All insects have their favorite
colours.
(D) The world is more colorful to
insects than to human beings.

二、阅读理解、完形填空题(共5道小题)
41 When my
friend asked me, ―What will make this love last?‖
I ran through all the obvious reasons: commitment,
shared interests, unselfishness, physical
attraction, communication. Yet there’s more. We
still have fun. Spontaneous good
times.
Yesterday, after slipping the rubber band off the
rolled up newspaper, Scott flipped it playfully at
me, which led to
an all-out war. Last Saturday
at the grocery, we split the list and raced each
other to see who could make it to the checkout
first. Even washing dishes can be a blast. We
enjoy simply being together.
And there
are surprises. One time I came home to find a note
on the front door that led me to another note,
then
another, until I reached the walk-in
closet. I opened the door to find Scott holding a
―pot of gold‖ (my cooking kettle) and
the
―treasure‖ of a gift package. Sometimes I leave
him notes on the mirror and little presents under
his pillow.
There is understanding. I
understand why he must play basketball with the
guys. And he understands why, once a
year, I
must get away from the house, the kids—and even
him—to meet my sisters for a few days of nonstop
talking and
laughing.
There is
sharing. Not only do we share household worries
and parental burdens – we also share ideas. Scott
came
home from a convention last month and
presented me with a thick historical novel. Though
he prefers thrillers and science
fiction, he
had read the novel on the plane. He touched my
heart when he explained it was because he wanted
to be able
to exchange ideas about the book
after I’d read it.
There is
forgiveness. When I’m embarrassingly loud and
crazy at parties, Scott forgives me. When he
confessed
losing some of our savings in the
stock market, I gave him a hug and said, ―It’s
okay. It’s only money.‖

42. When Bill was
very young, they had been in love. Many nights
they had spent walking, talking, together. Then
something not very important had come between
them, and they didn’t speak. Impulsively, she had
married a man she
thought she loved. Bill went
away, bitter about women. Yesterday, walking
across Washington Square, she saw him for the
first time in years.
―Bill Walker,‖
she said. He stopped. At first he did not
recognize her, to him she looked so old. ―Mary!‖
Unconsciously, she lifted her face as though
wanting a kiss, but he held out his hand. She
took it. ―I live in New York
now,‖ she said.
―Oh‖ — smiling politely. Then a little frown came
quickly between his eyes. ―Always wondered what
happened to you, Bill.‖ ―I’m a lawyer. Nice
firm, way downtown.‖ ―Married yet?‖ ―Sure. Two
kids.‖
A great many people went past
them through the park. It was late afternoon.
Nearly sunset. Cold.
―And your
husband?‖ he asked her. ―We have three children.
I work in the bursar’s office at Columbia.‖
―You’re looking very …‖ (he wanted to say old)
―…well,‖ he said.
She understood. She
had been older than he then in Ohio.
―We live on Central Park West,‖ she said. ―Come
and see us sometime.‖
―Sure,‖ he
replied. ―You and your husband must have dinner
with my family some night. Any night. Lucille
and I’d love to have you.‖
The
leaves fell slowly from the trees in the Square.
Fell without wind. She felt a little sick.
―We’d love it,‖ she answered. ―There’s my bus,‖
she said. He held out his hand. ―Good-bye.‖
―When…‖ she wanted to say, but the bus was ready
to pull off. Suddenly she shrieked very loudly.
―Good-bye!‖
But the bus door had closed.
The bus started. She lost sight of Bill.
Then she remembered she had forgotten to give him
her address — or to ask
him for his — or tell
him that her youngest boy was named Bill, too.

43.
The dog, called Prince, was an intelligent animal
and a slave to Williams. From morning till night,
when
Williams was at home, Prince never left
his sight, practically ignoring all other members
of the family. The dog had a
number of clearly
defined duties and, like the good pupil he was,
Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his
abilities.
At nine every morning,
Prince ran off to the store in the village,
returning shortly with William’s daily paper and
William’s favorite tobacco. A gundog by breed,
Prince possessed a large soft mouth specially
evolved for the safe carrying
of hunted
creatures, so the paper and the tobacco came to no
harm, never even showing a tooth mark.
Williams was an engine driver, and he wore a blue
uniform which smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had
to work at
odd times ―days‖, ―late days‖ or
―nights‖. Over the years Prince got to know these
periods of work and rest, knew when
his master
would leave the house and return, and he never
wasted this knowledge. If Williams overslept,
Prince barked at
the bedroom door until he
woke, much to the annoyance of the family.
One evening William slipped and fell on the icy
pavement somewhere between the village and his
home. He was
so badly shaken that he stayed in
bed for three days; and not until he got up and
dressed again did he discover that he had
lost
his wallet. The house was turned upside down in
the search, but the wallet was not found. However,
five days after the
fall, Prince dropped the
wallet into William’s hand. Very muddy, stained
and wet through, the little case still contained
fifty-three pounds, and William’s driving
license. Where the dog had found it no one could
tell, but found it he had
recognized it
probably by the faint oily smell on the worn
leather. [共5题]
(1)How did the dog perform his
duties? [本题2分]

them off.

About ten men in every hundred suffer from colour
blindness in some way; women are luckier only
about one
in two hundred is affected in this
manner. There are different forms of color
blindness. A man may not be able to see deep
red. He may think that red, orange and yellow
are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot
tell the difference
between blue and green. In
rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in
shades of green---a strange world indeed.
In certain occupations colour blindness can be
dangerous and candidates are tested most
carefully. Colour
blindness in human beings is
a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there
are millions of very small things called
―cones‖. These help to see in a bright light
and to tell the difference between colours. There
are also millions of ―rods‖ but
these are used
for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us
shape but not colour. Wait until it is dark
tonight, and then
go outside. Look round you
and try to see what colors you can recognize.
Birds and animals which hunt at night
have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so
they cannot see colours.
As far as we know,
bats and adult owls cannot see colours at all only
light and dark shapes. Similarly cats and dogs
cannot
see colours as well as we can.
Insects can see ultraviolet rays which are
invisible to us, and some of them can even see
X-rays. The wings of a
moth may seem grey and
dull to us, but to insects they may appear
beautiful, showing colours which we cannot see.
Scientists know that there are other colours
around us which insects can see but which we
cannot see. Some insects have
favorite
colours. Mosquitoes like blue, but do not like
yellow. A red light will not attract insects but a
blue lamp will.
(1)Which of the following is
true about the people who suffer from colour
blindness? [本题2分]
(A) Some of them may see
everything in shades of green.
(B) Few of
them can tell the difference between blue and
green.
(C) Few of them may think that red,
orange and yellow are all shades of green.
(D) Very few of them may think that everything in
the world is in green.
你选择的答案: D [正确]
