The reason so many talented people are poor is because they 53 on building a better hamburger and know little or 54 about business systems. The world is filled with talented poor people.

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和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my mother’s words as if it were yesterday: “Kerrel, I don’t want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him.”
AIDS wasn’t something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father’s other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.
We couldn’t afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to work, I had no money for school supplies and often couldn’t even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teacher’s words muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.
I did not share my burden (负担) with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.
I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret. I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life.
I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone, even me. He didn’t want to call attention to AIDS. I do.
56. What does Kerrel tell us about her father
A. He had stayed in the hospital since he fell ill.
B. He depended on the nurses in his final days.
C. He worked hard to pay for his medication.
D. He told no one about his disease.
57. What can we learn from the underlined sentence
A. Kerrel couldn’t understand her teacher.
B. Kerrel had special difficulty in hearing.
C. Kerrel was too troubled to focus on the lesson.
D. Kerrel was too tired to bear her teacher’s words.
58. Why did Kerrel keep her father’s disease a secret
A. She was afraid of being looked down upon.
B. She thought it was shameful to have AIDS.
C. She found no one willing to listen to her.
D. She wanted to obey her mother.
59. Why did Kerrel write the passage
A. To tell people about the sufferings of her father.
B. To show how little people knew about AIDS.
C. To draw people’s attention to AIDS.
D. To remembered her father.
B
In the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. Many TV stations, newspapers, magazines, radio stations are privately owned. The government does not give them money. So where does the money come from From advertisements. Without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses.
Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is Through the years, people have given different answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of “Keeping your name before the public”. And some people thought that advertising was “truth well told”. Now more and more people consider it in this way: Advertising is the paid, non-personal, and usually persuasive presentation of goods, services and ideas by some certain sponsors (发起人) through various media.
First, advertising is usually paid for. Various sponsors pay for the advertisements we see, read, and hear over the various media. Second, advertising is non-personal. It is not face-to-face communi cation. Although you may feel that a message in a certain advertisement is aimed directly at you, in reality, it is directed at large groups of people. Third, advertising is usually persuasive. Directly or indirectly it asks people to do something. All advertisements try to make people believe that the product, idea, or service advertised can benefit them. Fourth, the sponsors of the advertisement must show their names. From the advertisement, we can see if the sponsor is a company, or a single person. Fifth, advertising reaches us through old and modern mass media. Included in the old media are newspapers. magazines, radio, television, and films. Modern media include emails, matchbox covers, and boards on top of buildings.
60. The existence of the privately owned mass media depends on the support of _____ .
A. the government B. their owners’ families
C. advertisements D. the TV stations
61. The passage seems to say that different ideas of advertising are given due to _______.
A. the change of time B. the subject of the advertisements
C. people's age difference D. peoples different opinions
62. Which of the following is considered modern mass media
A. Newspapers. B. Emails. C. Magazines. D. Films.
63. According to the passage, which of the following statements about advertisements is NOT true
A. The sponsors are always mentioned.
B. Advertising must he honest and humorous.
C. There is the description of things advertised.
D. Advertising is meant for large groups of people.
C
When nature is left alone, a balance is reached among the animals and plants living in one area. But when man starts his work in nature, the balance is likely to be destroyed. He grows a crop and takes it away to eat; then there are no dead leaves to fall on the ground, holding water while it sinks into the surface, or decaying(腐烂) and adding humus(腐殖质) to the soil. Unless a farmer acts with knowledge and skill, he is therefore most likely to make the land poorer. To take the place of the useful matter in the crops that he removes, he uses some kind of fertilizer. Chemical fertilizers are of great help, but the waste products of animals and decaying remains of plants should also be put on the land. In some places, it is a habit to burn waste material lying about, but such burning destroys the useful matter in the dead plants. Although the ashes that are left are valuable when put on the land, a better practice is to bury the waste so that it decays and increases the humus in the soil.
In the past, when the world population was much lower than it is now, a man had little difficulty in ordinary times in growing the food that was needed. When a field had been used some years and had become tired, the farmer could move to another place. The tired land then slowly recovered. Gradually grasses and other plants would appear on it and its productive power would slowly return to normal through their decay. But nature, left alone, would take a long time to bring back the land to its former state; the length of time required would depend on local conditions, but it might well be ten years.
It is a bad practice to grow the same crop in a field year after year. If the crop is changed, the land will suffer less because it is treated and used in a different way. Different plants have different effects on the soil. Therefore, a change of crop will do less harm than the growing of the same crop year after year and a regular change to grass will do good to the soil. Much will therefore be gained if different crops are grown one after another, a method known as the rotation(轮作) of crops.
64. According to the passage, the land will become poorer, _________.
A. if all the dead leaves are cleared away
B. if the humus is increased after the harvest
C. if dead leaves decay in the soil by themselves
D. if waste plant material lying about is buried
65. We can learn from the passage that the tired land has gradually recovered _________.
A. when grasses and other plants appear again
B. when the treatment is given by nature alone
C. after new grasses and other plants have decayed again
D. after nature has been left alone for several months
66. A modern farmer can hardly move to another place as he did before because _________.
A. the productive power of a new field isn't higher than that of an old one
B. there are few free fields left for him to do farming
C. it takes a farmer more than ten years to start farming in a new field
D. there will be too many grasses in a new field to grow crops
67. It is most likely that the author will go on to _______ in the paragraph following the passage above.
A. introduce other methods of planting crops
B. deal with how to prevent land getting tired
C. start another topic of how to make use of land
D. further explain what the rotation of crops is
D
One of the United States’ social problems is the breakdown of the two-parent family. Today, millions of American children grow up without fathers. Too often, these children lack the love and help they badly need and which they would ordinarily receive from not one but two parents. In the old days, American parents placed the needs of their children above their own. At present, however, nearly one half of all new marriages end in divorce, with often troubling results for their children. Worse, every year, thousands of teenage, unmarried Americans become mothers outside marriage, with generally terrible results for the mothers and children alike and for American society more generally. However, Chinese continue to value whole marriages. This is not to say that Chinese marriages are all perfect. They certainly are not, judging from increasing rates of divorce and extramarital affairs－but the willingness of Chinese to set aside their own needs and stay together for the sake of the children is admirable and worthy of study.
Families, in whatever form they may take, are important to Americans. If one was to ask a group of Americans what is the dearest to them, the majority would say“family”.And yet, so many Americans spend much more time at work, that is, beyond the formal forty-hour work week-than they do with their own families. Obviously, the USA is one of the most powerful in the world, owing in large measure to“workaholism”（工作狂）.
It seems to me that Chinese generally find a better balance between work and family needs than many Americans do. I don’t see the number of workaholics in China that I do in the United States（or American organizations in China）.Instead, average Chinese usually head home right after work（in the office or field），have meals together, and spend time with their family members. What’s more, Chinese try to make more time for grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins than many Americans; in many cases, multigenerational families live together.
Of course, like many facts of Chinese society, this is all changing; increasing numbers of“New Chinese”are working longer hours and spending less time with their families than ever before. Still, while Americans do value their loved ones, I think we have something to learn from the Chinese about finding the proper balance between work and family.
68．The main point of the passage is .
A．family plays a very important role in America
B．there is something about family for Americans to learn from China
C．a proper balance between work and family needs to be found for Chinese
D．the Chinese have a proper balance between work and play
69．According to the passage, the American family value in the past is that .
A．Americans love their families more than their jobs
B．Americans often set aside their children’s needs
C．Americans have a strong work desire
D．American parents place the needs of their children above their own
70．It can be concluded from the passage that .
A．in the author’s eyes, the breakdown of the two-parent family in China will be more serious than that in the U. S. in the future
B．today young Americans should reduce their material comforts in the interests of their children’s future
C．Chinese marriage is said to be all perfect
D．at present, nearly one half of all new marriages end in divorce in China
71．What does the author think according to the passage
A．Children living in one-parent families badly need their parents’ love and help
B．Children with one-parent need their parents’ money badly.
C．Chinese value whole marriage more than before.
D．Work is the dearest to most Chinese.

Sometimes in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions from communication experts working on the newspaper of the future. Pictured as part of broader home based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of news events.
Most of the technology is available now, but convincing（说服） more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance to computer newspapers may be stronger from within journalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation realize that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable.
Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replace news-print with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial（金融的） interests in the paper industry.
72. The best title for this passage is __________.
A. Computer Newspapers Are Well Liked
B. Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on Computers
C. Paper Newspapers Are out of Fashion
D. Communications Technology in the Future
73. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers
A. They are cheaper than newspapers.
B. They are convenient to use.
C. You can get more information from them quickly.
D. You can easily save information for future use.
74. The reason why journalists are not eager to accept computer newspapers is that __________.
A. they don’t know how to use computers
B. they think computer newspapers take too much time to read
C. they are afraid that they might be unfit for their jobs
D. they have been trained to work for traditional newspapers
75. We can infer from the passage that __________.
A. all technological changes are good
B. all technologies will eventually replace old ones
C. new technologies will replace old ones sooner or later
D. traditional newspapers will stay for another century

第一节 任务型读写（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）
There has been much disagreement over children’s education in recent years. One of the questions is whether children benefit more from boarding to schools or from going to day schools and staying with their parents after school. It is becoming a matter of concern for more and more people, especially for parents with only one child.
The people who are in favor of children going to boarding schools point out that a boarding school is an ideal place for building up children’s independence , which they seldom learn from their parents at home. Children who have the experience of going to boarding schools will come up with their own ways to problems they meet with instead of turning to their parents or others for help. What’s more, these children usually enjoy team work than the little emperors’ in many one-child families. They are generally more used to competing with others and will find it easier to fit modern society, which is full of competition when they grow up.
On the other hand, those who are against children going to boarding schools argue that these schools are usually much more expensive than ordinary day schools. Usually children from rich families gradually develop a sense of pride toward those from other families. And children at boarding schools have less time to be with their parents, which may lead to a gap between them and weaken family ties.
Title: Arguments about 76_______schools
More and more people came to be 77______about children’s education in recent years.
Advantages of boarding at school ●Becoming more 78______●Coming up with their own ways to solve problems ●79_____team work; Fitting 80_____, competitive society
81_______of boarding at school ●82_______much more money for boarding school ●Having less time to be with their parents, 83_________a gap.●84__________a sense of pride toward those from other families
85______ Every coin has two sides
