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A, B, C, D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Many ESL (English as a Second Language) students in the United States enroll in (注册学习) academic preparation programs and are in their late teens or early twenties. This is often a time when students are looking back on childhood in a different way. Their childhood memories and their viewpoint on those memories can be very useful for the production of wonderfully creative writing.
For this project, the students began in class by closing their eyes and trying to return to their childhood years in order to bring early memories to their mind. After imagining for a few minutes, they began to tell each other what they remembered about those years and tried to describe a particular incident that stood out in their memories.
That evening they wrote in their journals about the incident, embellishing (润饰) the story as much as possible. The next day, they read the story to a different partner and got feedback (反馈意见). The partner’s job was t ask more questions to bring back the writer’s memory; help the writer make sure that past tense verbs were used correctly, focusing on the difference between those things that were still true and needed present tense and those things that belonged specifically to the past. Two days later, students made necessary changes or additions and turned in a typed copy of their story. I then made my own comments about their work and asked them to revise their work. The third draft (稿子) produced some very good work.
51．The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to ________.
A. tell readers how he taught his ESL students to write
B. explain his idea of English learning
C. show readers how ESL students live and study
D. show readers the difficulty he had in his work
52．What did the author ask his students to write about?
A. What they saw around them. B. Their predictions for the future.
C. Their opinions of the
United States. D. Their childhood memories.
53．In what order do the students write their compositions according to the passage?
a. share their writing with their classmates
b. exchange their memories
c. write their stories
d. ask for others’ feedback
e. make some changes to their compositions and have them typed
f. corrected by the teacher
g. recall their stories
A. d-e-f-g-a-c-b B. g-c-a-d-b-f-e C. e-f-b-c-a-g-d D. g-b-c-a-d-e-f
54．A partner may help do the following things EXCEPT ________.
A. find spelling mistakes B. make the memory more complete
C. check the tense of the verbs D. give some feedback
B
As prices and building costs keep rising, the “do-it-yourself” (DIY) trend in the
U.S. continues to grow.
“We needed furniture for our living room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.
Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I’ve finished a car repair course. I should be able to fix the car by myself.”
John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.
55．We can learn from the text that many newly married people ________.
A. find it hard to pay for what they need
B. have to learn to make their own furniture
C. take DIY courses run by the government
D. seldom go to a department store to buy things
56．John and his wife went to evening classes to learn how to ________.
A. run a DIY shop B. make or repair things
C. save time and money D. improve the quality of life
57．When the writer says that Jim has a full-time job at home, he means Jim ________.
A. keeps house and looks after his children B. does his own car and home repairs
C. does extra work at night D. makes shoes in his home
58．Jim Hatfield decided to become a do-it-yourselfer when ________.
A. he had to raise the children all by himself B. the car repair class was not helpful
C. he could not possibly do two jobs D. his car repairs cost too much
59．What would be the best title for the text?
A. the Joy of DIY B. You Can Do It Too!
C. Welcome to Our DIY Course! D. Ross and Hatfield: Believers in DIY

How many people have I met who have told me about the book they have been planning to write but have never yet found the time? Far too many.
This is Life, all right, but we do treat it like a rehearsal (排演) and, unhappily, we do miss so many of its best moments.
We take jobs to stay alive and provide homes for our families always making ourselves believe that this style of life is merely a temporary state of affairs along the road to what we really want to do. Then, at 60 or 65, we are suddenly presented with a clock and several grandchildren and we look back and realize that all those years waiting for Real Life to come along were in fact real life.
In America they have a saying much laughed at by the English: “Have a nice day” they speak slowly and seriously in their shops, hotels and sandwich bars. I think it is a wonderful phrase, reminding us, in effect, to enjoy the moment: to value this very day.
How often do we say to ourselves, “I’ll take up horse-riding (or golf, or sailing) as soon as I get a higher position,” only to do none of those things when I do get the higher position.
When I first became a reporter I knew a man who gave up a very well paid respectable job at the Daily Telegraph to go and edit a small weekly newspaper. At the time I was astonished by what appeared to me to be his completely abnormal mental state. How could anyone turn his back on Fleet Street in central London for a small local area? I wanted to know.
Now I am a little older and possibly wiser, I see the sense in it. In Fleet Street the man was under continual pressure. He lived in an unattractive London suburb and he spent much of his life sitting on Southern Region trains.
63．The first paragraph of the passage tells us that ________.
A. we always try to find some time to write a book
B. we always make plans but seldom fulfil them
C. we always enjoy many of life’s best moments
D. we always do what we really want to do
64．The underlined phrase “turn his back on” ( Paragraph 6 ) most probably means ________.
A. leave for B. return to C. give up D. rely on
65．The man (Paragraph 6 ) left his first job partly because he was ________.
A. not respected B. under too much pressure
C. not well paid D. in an abnormal mental state
66．What is probably the best title for the passage?
A. Provide Homes For Our Family B. Take Up Horse-riding
C. Value This Very Day D. Stay Alive
E
Fatimah Bamun dropped out of
Balizenda Primary School in the first grade, when her father refused to buy her pencils and paper. Only after her teachers said to him that his daughter showed unusual promise did he change his mind. Today, Fatimah, 14, tall and slender, studies math in a dirt-floored fourth-grade classroom.
Whether she will reach the fifth grade is another matter. Fatimah is facing the realities of a school with no toilet, no water, no hope of privacy (隐私) other than the shadow of a bush, and no girlfriends with whom to share feelings. Fatimah is the only girl of the 23 students in her class. In fact, in a school of 178 students, she is one of the only three girls who have made it past the third grade.
“I have no friend in the class,” she said. “Most of my friends have dropped out to get married. So during the break, I just sit in the classroom and read.”
Her father, however, now says he is fully behind her. “The people from the government are all the time telling us to send our daughters to school, and I am listening to these people,” he said.
But in many cases, parents don’t listen. Parents think that if the girls stay home, they can help with the harvesting, fetch the water and collect the firewood. So they take them out of school.
In a region where poverty, tradition and ignorance make about 24 million girls not even have an elementary school education. There are many other barriers (障碍) that prevent girls going to school, such as the lack of school toilets and water.
The issue is not only equality. The World Bank thinks that if women in sub-Saharan
Africa had equal education, land and other wealth, the region’s economy could improve greatly. There is a connection between growth in
Africa and sex equality. It is of great importance but still ignored by so many people.
67. The author’s purpose in writing the passage is to _______.
A. find the cause of
Africa’s poverty
B. describe the poor education conditions of African girls
C. prove the inequality in African society
D. reform the present schooling systems in
Africa
68. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Fatimah is a girl who shows signs of success for the future.
B. Fatimah’s father is now giving a lot of support to her.
C. Fatimah is the only girl who has made it past the fifth grade in her school.
D. Fatimah has no friends at school because they most of them have dropped out to get married.
69. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
A. most African girls are treated equally in society
B. African governments don’t care whether girls go to school or not
C. most African girls would rather get married than go to school
D. African girls can’t enjoy equal chances for education
70. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. School barriers for African girls. B. African girls fail at school.
C. Schools say “no” to African girls. D. African girls achieve a lot at school.

其他三个动词不合题意。

34．A 根据常理，不会舍近求远，所以用the nearest。
35．A 从上文得知，作者没有提出回旅馆的要求，可见是律师建议的。
