第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）

      阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A，B，C，D)中，选出最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

                                       A

      Insomnia is a problem to nearly everyone at some time．A person may be awake for an hour in the middle of the night and then，next morning，feel that he hardly slept all night．Normally，worrying about not getting enough sleep is the worst Aspect of most insomnia．

      If insomnia keeps happening，however，it is important to find its possible Causes and try to correct them，with the help of a doctor if necessary．

      Any of a large number of simple factors may make it difficult for someone to fall asleep or remain awake．His mattress may be too soft or too hard．If there are  too many blankets on a hot night，he may be too warm；if the bedclothes are too light he may feel cold during the night．The bedroom itself may be overheated or too cold．

      If it is not dark enough，or too noisy，this may cause difficulty in sleeping．Eating shortly before going to bed may also be responsible for insomnia．Stimulating drinks，such as tea or coffee，can also keep people awake．

      Inability to fall asleep is sometimes a symptom of emotional or mental disorders. Insomnia may also be caused by pain and，very rarely，it can be a symptom of a physical disease．

      The cause of insomnia may be easy to correct．The sufferer should check the mattress，bedclothes and bedroom temperature，and make any necessary changes．An eye mask keeps out the light and earplugs shut out sound．He should rest for an hour or two before bedtime，perhaps by reading a book，watching television or taking a warm bath．If he wakes during the night he should try turning on the light and reading for a while．Taking warm milk and a biscuit or two may be helpful．Above all，he should try not to worry about sleeplessness--when someone is tired enough he nearly always falls asleep．

    56. It is implied in the passage that the main cure for insomnia is not to_____．

     A．read too much at night

      B． drink too much for supper

     C． be too anxious about sleeping

     D． watch too much television

     57． According to the passage，insomnia is_____．

     C． a common trouble

     D． a disease men suffer most

     58． Insomnia needn’t be taken seriously because _____．    

     A． it can be easily cured by doctors

     B． it often can be corrected by taking good care of oneself

     C． it can be stopped by taking medicine

     D． people can sleep more during the clay

    59． Who is most probably the writer of this passage?        

    A． An insomnia sufferer．

    B． A specialist in insomnia．

    C． A magazine reader．

     D． A newspaper editor

                                                                 B

      People have smoked cigarettes for a long time now．The tobacco which is used to make cigarettes is first grown in the place which is now part of the United States．Christopher Columbus who discovered America，saw the Indians smoking．Soon the dried leaves were sent to Europe where smoking began to catch on．In the 1800s，the Turks made cigarettes popular．

      Cigarettes have at least two harmful materials: tar and nicotine．Tar, which forms as the tobacco burns，harms the lungs．Nicotine which is found in tobacco leaves，causes the heart to beat faster and increases the frequency of breathing many times．

      Smoking cigarettes is dangerous．The United States Public Service says that cigarette smoking is the cause of lung cancer and several other deadly illnesses．The US government now requires that each package of cigarettes should have a special warning about the danger of smoking．

      60. As mentioned, smoking may cause _____. Which is not right?   

       A. heart beating faster.

       B. lung cancer.

       C. many other deadly illness.

      D. brain working faster

       61． This passage suggests that_____．

       A． the Turks were very brave because they paid little attention to the danger of smoking．

       B. the people in Europe didn’t smoke cigarettes before America was discovered．

       C． nicotine isn’t in the tobacco．   

       D． tar can harm the lungs when people\"s hearts heat faster

       62． The U．S government has a special warning on the package of cigarettes_____．

      A． to make people all the time realize smoking is dangerous

       B． because the cigarettes are dangerous

      C． because it wants to remind people of the use of the tobacco

       D． because it wants to forbid people to smoke other cigarettes

      63． The lung cancer has nothing to do with_____．

       A． the tobacco                  

       B． cigarette smoking

       C． the package of the cigarettes 

       D． passive smoking

                                                                C             

      Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer．I always encourage such people，but I also ex-plain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing．In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame ,not the long hours alone at a typewriter．“You want to write，”I say to them，“not want to be a writer．”    

      The reality is that writing is a lonely，private and poor-paying affair．For not every writer kissed by fortune, there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded．When I left a 20 year career in the U．S Coast Guard to become a freelance writer，I had no hope at all．What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building．It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom I immediately bought a used typewriter and felt like a real writer．

      After a year or so，however，I still hadn’t got a break and began to doubt myself．It was so hard to sell a story that I hardly made enough to eat．But I knew I wanted to write．I had dreamed about it for years．I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering, what if? I would keep putting my dream to the test -even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure．This is the shadow land of hope，and anyone with a dream must learn to live there．

   64． The passage is meant to_____．            

   A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience

   B． advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer

   C. show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to seek wealth and fame

       D. encourage young people to consider writing as a career

       65. What can be concluded from the passage?

       A. Real writers often find their work interesting and rewarding．

       B. A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on effort．

       C. Famous writers usually live in poor condition．

       D． The chances for a writer to become successful are small．

      66． Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?

      A. He wasn’t able to produce a single book．

       B． He hadn’t seen a change for the better．

       C. He wasn’t able to have a rest for a whole year．

    D． He found his dream would never come true．                                       D                             

       If parents bring up child with the aim of turning the child into a genius，they will cause great damage to him．According to several leading educational psychologists，this is one of the biggest mistakes which some parents make．Generally，the child will understand very well what the parent expects，and will fail .Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children．  

      However，if parents are not unrealities about what they expect their children to do，but are hopeful in a sensible way，the child may succeed in doing very well-especially if the parents are very supportive of their child． 

      Michael Li is very lucky．He is very fond of music，and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him．They even drive him 50 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons．Although Michael’s mother knows very little about music．Michael’s father plays the trumpet in a large orchestra．However，he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling．

      Michael’s friend，Winston Chen，however，is  not so lucky．Although both his parents are successful musicians，they set too high a standard for Winston．They want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him in every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win．“When I was your age，I used to win every competition I entered．”Winston\"s father tells him．Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy．

       67． The main idea of the passage is _____． 

      A． how parents should make a child a musician

      B． how parents should bring up a child

      C． what differences there are between two kinds of parents

       D． what aim of a child can be much easier to reach

       68． Michael is lucky because _____.

      A． his parents help him in a sensible way  

      B． his family is rich enough to have a car

       C. his father is a musician in a orchestra

      D． he is free to do anything that he likes best

          69． Winston\"s parents set so high a standard for him that _____．

     A． he has to do his best to do everything

     B． he has made greater progress in music 

     C． he is afraid he may disappoint them

     D． he often wants to kill himself some day

      70． It is one of parents’  worst mistakes if_____．

     A． they want their child to be a musician

      B． they help their child to win music competi-tions

      C． they don\"t care for their child\"s education mu-ch

    D． they make their child try to achieve too much

       It may be the last book you\"ll ever buy. And certainly, from a practical standpoint, it will be the only book you\"ll ever need. No. It\"s not the Bible or some New Age tome promising enlightenment-although it would let you carry around both texts simultaneously. It\"s an electronic book-a single volume that could contain a library of information or, if your tastes run toward what\"s current, every title on today\"s best seller list. And when you\"re done with those, you could refill it with new titles.

       Why an electronic book? Computers can store a ton of data and their laptop companions make all that information portable. True enough. But laptops(便携式电脑) and similar portable information devices require a lot of power-and heavy batteries-to keep their LCD screens operating. And LCDs are not easy to read in the bright light of the sun.

       Fact is, when it comes to portability, easy viewing, and low power requirements, it\"s hard to beat plain old paper.

       So let\"s make the ink electronic.

       That\"s the deceptively simple premise behind a project currently coming to fruition at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Some hurdles-mostly having to do with large scale manufacturing-remain, so it will be a few years before you see an electronic book for sale in stores. But the basic technology already exists, developed at the Institute\"s Media Lab by a team led by physicist Joe Jacobson.Thanks to electronic ink, the book essentially typesets itself, receiving instructions for each page via electronics housed in the spine. From a power standpoint, this process makes the electronic book very efficient. Unlike an LCD screen, which uses power all the time, energy is no longer needed to view the electronic book\"s pages once they are typeset. Only a small battery would be required, as opposed to the large ones needed to power laptop computers and their LCDs.    

       Convenience, though, is still the main attraction-and that means more than simple portability. Because the information is in electronic form, it can be easily manipulated.

       Jacobson thinks an electronic book will be affordable-around $200 for a basic read only model to about $400 for one that would record your margin scribbles. Some hurdles remain, though, before you can take an electronic book with you anywhere. Paper is produced in long sheets, and Jacobson is still working on the best method to integrate electronic ink into that process. To avoid having to use thousands of tiny wires on each page, the ink itself must be conductive. Such ink was recently demonstrated in the lab but has yet to be produced in volume. "Essentially," notes Jacobson, "We\"re trying to print chips."   

       Jacobson is confident, however, that this can be done on a large scale. If Jacobson succeeds, he will have made the book for the 21st century.  

       71. According to the passage, which book is the only book you\"ll ever need?     

      A. The Bible.               B. A single volume.

       C. New Age tome.     D. An electronic book.

       72. About electronic book, which of the following statements is NOT true?

       A. It can contain a library of information or every title on today\"s best seller list. 

       B. Although we know the basic technology, we can\"t see it for sale now. 

       C. The laptop needs a lot of power to keep LCD screens work, and those screens have shortcoming.

       D. You can change the title and the content in the electronic book as you like.      

       73. What is the premise behind a project of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology?

       A. Electronic ink.        B. Electronic book.

       C. Laptop.                      D. LCD screen.

       74. What is the main difference between an electronic book and a LCD screen?

       A. The power they need.

       B. The portability they come to.

       C. The convenience they make.

       D. The content they store.

       75.It will be a few years before we can see electronic book for sale because ____.

       A. we haven\"t mastered the manufacturing technology yet

       B. the electronic ink which must be conductive couldn\"t be produced in large scale

       C. the electronic book will be too expensive to buy        D. you can\"t take an electronic book with you anywhere
