四、 阅读理解
阅读下列短文, 根据内容选择最佳答案。(共20小题；每小题2分, 满分40分)
A
As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up If you were like most children, you probably let your imagination run wild. Maybe you dreamed of flying into space or being a famous cook. Then perhaps over the years, your dreams became more realistic. Or you might have given up on some altogether.
It’s important to have dreams because dreams can give us the energy to succeed in life. They might take a few years or they might take a lifetime to achieve. But the most important thing is that you’re supposed to work towards your dream. And the best way to do that is by setting goals.
What is the difference between a dream and a goal It’s been said that dreams are the final destination（目的地）; goals are the stops along the way. Dreams can be very general. But the steps you take to reach them should be very specific （具体的）. Your dreams mean what you want, but goals explain how you’ll get there. That makes goal setting a necessary step in reaching your dreams.
Many successful people have spoken about dreams. Former US Secretary of State Colin Powell stressed the importance of working for your dreams. “A dream doesn’t become reality through magic. It takes sweat （汗水）, resolution and hard work.” Author Les Brown reminded us that dreams have no age limit. “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.”
If you’ve been dreaming about doing something for years, start today. Write down your dream, and set your goals. Then you’ll be on your way to making your dreams come true.
51. Who did the writer probably write this passage for
A. Teachers. B. Students. C. Workers. D. Doctors.
52．What is the most important for you to realize your dream
A. Having a dream. B. Making a promise. C. Working for the dream. D. Raising pressure.
53．What can we mainly learn from the third paragraph
A. What your dreams mean. B. What your goals mean.
C. The differences between dreams and goals. D. The difficulties in reaching our goals.
54．What can we do according to what Author Les Brown said
A. We can learn from many successful people. B. We can have dreams even when we are very old.
C. We can reach our dream through magic. D. We can reach our dream by setting goals.
55．What can be the best title for the passage
A. What Your Dreams Mean B. Successful People’s Ideas about Dreams
C. Make Your Dreams Come True D. Difficulties in Reaching Goals
B
Does the music we listen to affect us in one way or another The following questions and answers may give us some ideas.
CAN MUSIC HELP US SLEEP？
Obviously, yes! In a study, music was shown to cure insomnia (the condition of being unable to sleep). Over 80% of the people taking part in the study became better sleepers after three weeks of listening to classical music at bedtime. In another study, half of the people over the age of 60 who had difficulty falling asleep reported that they became good sleepers after a few weeks. So, if you're battling to fall asleep, make yourself a 45﹣minute playlist of slow, calming music.
CAN IT TAKE PAIN AWAY？
Well, maybe not totally, but music has been shown to help us feel better. One experiment asked people to hold their hands in freezing cold water. The people who were listening to music could handle the pain for longer, especially if they got to choose the music themselves. The same was found at dentists’ rooms —— patients felt less pain if they got to choose the music they listened to.
CAN MUSIC MAKE US ACT DIFFERENTLY？
For sure! Think about the music you hear when you’re at the shops or at a restaurant. Studies show that playing slow music at a restaurant makes you eat slower. The pace of music in a shopping center decides on how fast people walk —— you take more time to browse (look at things in a shop) if the music is calmer. Some studies have even shown that music can influence what you buy. One test done by psychologists in England in 1999 changed the background music near displays of German and French wines. When they played German music, the German wine sold twice as much. When French music was used, the French wine sold five times better!
56. _____▲_____music may help people who have problems in falling asleep.
A. Dance B. Loud C. Pop D. Classical
57. The underlined word "handle" is closest in meaning to ▲ .
A. keep on B. deal with C. break down D. focus on
58. From the third question and answer, we can learn that ▲ .
A. German wines sell better than French wines B. loud music is popular in the shopping center
C. fast music make people eat more D. music can change our way of eating and shopping
59. The text above is written to ______▲______.
A. describe different kinds of music B. introduce the effect of music
C. tell people how to create music D. test people's understanding of music
60. In which section of a magazine can you find this text？　 　
A. Book club. B. World travel. C. Science discovery. D. Big debate（辩论）.
C
“When I was at primary school, I put my shoes on the wrong way round. I didn’t notice but my friends did.” ——Max, aged 13.
“I said to a friend that my teacher looked like a lion with her new hairstyle, and then realized the ‘lion’ was right behind me.” ——Ella, aged 12.
Have you ever experienced such moments Embarrassment is a feeling that can make you laugh, cry and want to hide forever. Falling over in a shop or accidentally calling your teacher “Mum” might feel like the end of the world. But not everyone thinks it’s a big deal. What feels terrible to one person might be easily laughed off by another. Whatever you are feeling embarrassed about, remember that it’s natural to feel this way.
Scientists believe embarrassment is a way of teaching us not to repeat mistakes. You feel embarrassed because you care too much about what other people think of you. Even if you think everyone saw you with cream on your face, studies show that fewer people notice than you think.
Embarrassment can’t be avoided in our life, so why not learn some tips for dealing with it
Try making a joke out of it. If something isn’t very serious, a joke may help. For example, you are listening to music so carefully that you walk into the wall. What to do Say like “The wall is truly harder than my head!” Laughter can show people that there’s nothing to worry about.
Talk to a person you trust. If someone is making you feel stupid, this is a type of bullying. Sometimes embarrassment can stop you trying new things. If this happens, it’s better to share your feelings with a person you trust.
▲ Sometimes we’re embarrassed when we do something wrong to others. In that case, try saying how sorry you are and that you regret what happened. Facing the mistakes bravely can be a first step in moving on.
61．How does the writer start the text
A. By giving advice. B. By sharing experiences.
C. By listing numbers. D．By showing opinions.
62．The underlined word “embarrassment” probably means the feeling of ▲ .
A. pleasure. B. sadness. C. uncomfortableness. D. excitement.
63．According to the text, why do we feel embarrassed
A. We care much about others’ views. B. We don’t believe in ourselves.
C. We are too shy to express ourselves. D．We are not good at making jokes.
64．Which of the following can be put into ▲ in the last paragraph
A. Forget what has happened. B. Tell someone your feelings.
C．Stop making silly mistakes. D．Be brave to say sorry.
65．What is the best title for the text
A. Facts about Embarrassment B. Moments We Feel Embarrassed
C. Advice on Dealing with Embarrassment D. Ideas about How to Avoid Mistakes
D
We like to believe that before we make a decision, most of the time, we take time to consider all the facts carefully. However, experts believe that only 5% of our decisions are based on a rational（理性的） thought process. So,what influences our decision-making process
We often leave decision-making to our instincts（本能）. Scientists have found out that if we had the choice, we like to avoid pain rather than get something. In fact, we’re twice as happy when we try to avoid a bad situation than when we experience a good one. This is why when companies send ads, they use phrases like “How to avoid...”, “Don’t miss out!”, etc.
There are also physical reasons that affect our decision-making. Psychologist （心理学家）John Bargh carried on an experiment where people were asked what they thought of a fictional person, while holding a cold or a hot cup of coffee. Those holding the hot cup believed the person to be warmer and more sociable than those holding the cold cup. So, when temperatures rise, the more likely we are to believe in strangers.
Stress is another thing which affects our decisions. Different situations are more or less stressful for different people. Researchers have found, though, that women are more conservative （保守的） about decisions when stressed, while men are to make riskier choices.
It may come as a surprise but every day from the minute we get up, we have to make countless decisions, like what to wear, what coffee to have and so on. Each choice makes our brain a little bit more tired, and this affects our decision-making. That’s why important people, like presidents wearing the same three suits all the time, want to limit the small choices and spend more brain power on the bigger ones.
66．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage
A． B． C． D．
67．What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A. Making fewer decisions helps to save brain power.
B. People sometimes judge(评判) a person by what he wears.
C. Every day we have to make lots of big decisions.
D. What people wear influences their decision making.
68. What does the underlined word “this” refer to？
A. We have to make a lot of decisions every day.
B. Each choice makes our brain a little more tired.
C. We have to decide what to wear from the minute we get up.
D. It is important for us to make a decision carefully.
69．What can we learn from the passage
A. We make most of the decisions after our careful thinking.
B. People are likely to be happier to avoid something bad.
C. As the temperature is low, we are likely to believe others
D. People usually have risky decisions under heavy pressure.
70. The purpose of the passage is to____▲______.
A. warn people not to make risky decisions B. advise people to make rational decisions
C. tell us what influences decision-making D. show disadvantages of rational decisions

Do you think you are a top student in your school The middle school is going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won’t only have high marks, they will also be kids who don’t do anything against the school rules like dyeing their hair, smoking or drinking wine.

My growing pain
My middle school life is coming to an end. During the three years, not only did I have a happy time, but I had kinds of problems. My biggest problem was from my parents. They wanted me to spend all my time on my lessons. They didn’t allow me to play computer games or have outdoor activities with my friends.
I couldn’t stand the strict rules! So I wrote a letter and told my parents I knew it was important to do well in schoolwork. I would make good use of the time and try to do well in schoolwork first. After a long talk with my parents, they agreed that I could have spare time and do something I like.
Now I have realized communicating with our parents is a good way to solve our problems.
My growing pain
Youth is not always full of joy. Sometimes I have my own problems.
Since I entered Grade 9, I have become more and more stressed. My parents hope I can enter a good high school and so do I. As a result, I have piles of homework to finish every day. Besides, all my classmates work so hard at school that I have to work as hard as them. I am afraid I will fall behind other classmates if I don't try my best.
Luckily, my parents discovered this and they encouraged me to believe myself. They told me the process mattered more than the result. With these words, I felt more confident and powerful. Now I am not as stressed as before. I believe if I try my best, I can make my dream come true.
