第二部分 阅读理解(共20小题;第一节共15题, 每题2分; 第二节共5题, 每题2分; 满分40分) 第一节(共15题, 每题2分,满分30分)

阅读下列四篇短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。

A

There are many fun, free activities that you can do as a family. All that is required is a bit of imagination and some time set aside for fun. And the best part is that these are the kind of memories a child will remember for a lifetime.

Family game night

Find out any of the games that are already around the house. Kids often get computer games for Christmas or birthdays, and would love to have a chance to play with their family. Or, make up some games of your own. “Charades” is a fun game to play that will challenge a child to use his/her imagination. Divide the family into teams and let each team come up with words that the other has to act out. Family art time

Pick some time for the family to sit down and come up with their own masterpiece. It doesn't need to be just a drawing -- take some old magazines sitting around the house, let the kids cut out pictures and paste them into their own montage. Or, use items from nature. Let them use leaves, pine cones, twigs and whatever else they can find to create something from their imaginations. Family Picnic

Taking the family for a picnic is a great way for some fun that doesn't cost any money. If the weather is nice, take them to a park or playground and let the kids have a day of playing. Or, if it is the middle of winter and a foot of snow is on the ground, set up a picnic in the living room. Family Field Trip

A family field trip doesn't have to cost a dime. Ask a nearby farm if it would be alright to bring your kids out for a tour and to see some of the animals. Or take them to a park and make a scavenger hunt where they need to find certain items from nature. Ask a local business if you could bring the family for a tour to see how things work -- you might be surprised at the number of people who would be thrilled to share what they do with others, and it could be an interesting lesson for the kids.

【 】41、 We can learn from the passage that “charades” ________.

A、is a computer game

B、is too difficult for children

D、should be played by more than four people B、can be held inside your house D、will cost much money if held on a farm

3 / 9

C、involves acting out words

A、should be held in the middle of winter C、will be very meaningful if held in offices

【 】42、According to the passage, the family picnic____________.

【 】43、Who might be most interested in this passage? _________.

A、Parents B、Teachers C、Kids D、People in general

B

Europe is now the biggest market for organic food in the world, having grown by 25 percent a year over the past 10 years. Denmark’s agriculture minister is herself an organic farmer. The UK market for organic food grew by 55 percent in 2000, while the food market as a whole grew by only one percent. Yet only seven percent of British shoppers account for nearly 90 percent of organic sales. However popular the idea of organic farming may be, it is still an interest for only a few people.

So what makes the idea of organic farming popular? Organic farming means farming with natural materials, rather than with man-made fertilizers or pesticides. Organic farmers rely on many methods — such as crop rotation (农作物的轮作) and the use of resistant varieties, because they are necessary for organic farmers to_compensate_for_the shortage of man-made chemicals. Organic farming is often supposed to be safer than traditional farming for the environment. Yet after a long research on organic farming worldwide for a number of years, science continues to be against this opinion. The House of Commons committee on agriculture publicized that, even with complete research work, it would fail to find any scientific evidence to prove “that any of claims (宣称) made for organic farming is always true”.

However, the talk about the benefits of organic farming is going on. This is partly because many people depend on their individual farm, the soil, the weather, and so on.

【 】44、The first paragraph mainly tells us _____.

A、organic farming has been performed only in Europe over the past 10 years B、governments of European countries have cared less about organic farming C、organic farming is far from being as popular as expected D、European countries need organic food more than the other countries in the world A、argue for B、care for C、struggle for D、pay for 【 】45、The underlined words “compensate for” in the second paragraph probably mean “________”. 【 】46、According to the third paragraph, _____. A、organic farming is safer than traditional farming for the environment B、the idea that organic farming is safer has not been proven by science C、organic farming is accepted by the UK’s House of Commons committee D、organic farming is preferred to traditional farming A、The UK’s agriculture minister is an organic farmer. B、Organic farming is popular with young people. C、Farmers make use of many different kinds of methods to improve the organic sales system. D、Ninety-three percent of British shoppers seldom buy organic products.

C

The Bronte sisters were three sisters who became famous novelists. Their lives and works are connected with the lonely moors of Yorkshire, England, where they lived. Patrick Bronte, the sisters’ father, was a poor Irishman who became the parish clergyman of the small, isolated town of Haworth, Yorkshire. Bronte was somewhat strange and tended to be strict. His wife died in 1821 and her sister brought up the family out of duty, but with little love or understanding. The sisters went to several boarding schools where they received a better education than usual for girls at that time, but in a bad atmosphere.

Few jobs were available for women at that time, and the Bronte sisters, except for occasional jobs as governesses or schoolteachers, lived their entire lives at home. They were shy, poor, and lonely, and occupied
