请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
I suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened. Looking down I immediately recognized that something was wrong and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Shwe with her three-month-old calf struggling in the fast-rising water and it was a life-and-death struggle. Her calf was floating and screaming with fear. Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole body against the rushing water and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body. Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away.
There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother’s body and was gone. Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk（象鼻）against the rocky bank .Then with a huge effort she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rock.
Just at this moment she fell back into the river .If she were carried down ,it would be certain death. I knew as well as she did ,that there was one spot（地点）where she could get up the bank but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf.
While I was wondering what I could do next, I heard the sound of a mother’s love. Ma Shwe had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could, roaring（吼叫）all the time but to her calf it was music.
56．The moment the author got down to the river bank he saw______.
A．the calf was about to fall into the river
B．Ma Shwe was placing the calf on the rock
C．the calf was washed away by the rising water
D．Ma Shwe was holding the calf against the rushing water
57．How did Ma Shwe manage to save her calf from the fast-flowing water
A．By putting it on a safe spot
B．By pressing it against her body
C．By taking it away with her
D．By carrying it on her back
58．How did the calf feel about the mother elephant’s roaring
A．It was a great comfort B．It was a sign of danger
C．It was a call for help D．It was a musical note
59．What can be the best title for the text

Rising above the names
I was shopping in the supermarket when I heard a young voice.
“Mom, come here! There’s this lady here my size!”
The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize.
I smiled and told her, “It’s okay.” Then talked to the boy, “Hi, I’m Darry Kramer. How are you ”
He studied me from head to toe, and asked, “Are you a little mommy ”
“Yes, I have a son,” I answered.
“Why are you so little ” he asked.
“It’s the way I was born,” I said. “Some people are little. Some are tall. I’m just not going to grow any bigger.” After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy’s hand and left.
My life as a little person is filled with stories like that. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents.
It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness. I stand three feet nine inches tall. I was born an achondroplasia dwarf (侏儒). Despite this, I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up.
I didn’t realize how short I was until I started school. Some kids picked on me, calling me names. Then I knew. I began to hate the first day of school each year. New students would always stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs.
But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed in my whole life. I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality.
I’m 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as I’ve grown older. People are amazed when they see me driving. I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have – a great family, nice friends.”
It’s the children’s questions that make my life special. I enjoy answering their questions. My hope is that I will encourage them to accept their peers (a person of the same age, class, position, etc.), whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect.
60．Why did the mother apologize to the author
A．Because the boy ran into the author.
B．Because the boy laughed at the author.
C．Because they boy said the author was fatter than him.
D．Because the mother thought the boy’s words had hurt the author.
61．When did the author realize that she was too short
A．When she grew up.
B．When she was 47 years old.
C．When she began to go to school.
D．When she met the boy in the supermarket.
62．Which of the following word can best replace the underlined word “diminished”
A．dismissed B．increased C．decreased D．discriminated
63．How does the author feel about people’s stares
A．Angry. B．Calm. C．Painful. D．Discouraged.
C
Wash Your Clothes with a Cup of Water
A washing machine that uses only a cup of water to carry a full wash, leaving clothes completely dry, has been developed by British inventors. Researchers say the technology, which uses less than 2 percent of the water and energy of a traditional machine, could save billions of litres of water each year.
The machine works by using thousands of plastic chips— each about half a centimeter in size— to absorb and remove dirt. Around 20 kilos of the chips are added to each load, along with a cup of water and detergent（洗涤剂）. During the washing cycle, the water is heated to help dissolve the dirt, which is then absorbed by the plastic chips. The inventors say the chips should be removed at the end of each wash, but can be used up to 100 times.
The technology, called Xeros, is already being compared to the Dyson bagless vacuum cleaner, which revolutionized the home cleaning industry when it was first introduced to the public in the mid-1990s.
If adopted by many homes across the UK, the machine could save billions of litres of water each year. According to data, washing machine use has risen by 23 percent in the past 15 years, up from three times a week in 1990 to an average four times now. The average UK household uses most 21 litres of water daily on clothes washing. Nationally, this equals to approximately 455 million litres of water a day — enough to fill 145 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
Although the Xeros is currently in the design and testing stage, the inventors say they are in talks with a commercial partner. The machine could be in the market as early as next year. Tests have produced quite astonishing results. “We’ve shown that it can remove all sorts of everyday stains including coffee and lipstick while using a tiny fraction of the water used by traditional washing machines,” said one of the inventors.
An expert said, “This is one of the most surprising and remarkable technologies I’ve encountered in recent years. Xeros has the ability to save billions of litres of water per year and, we believe, the potential to revolutionize the global laundry market.
pared to the traditional washing machine, the most outstanding feature of the Xeros is that ___________.
A. it doesn’t need any detergent
B. it saves a large amount of water
C. it can remove all sorts of everyday stains
D. the plastic chips can be removed at the end of each wash
65. The writer supports his idea with ____________ in Paragraph 4.
A. examples B. quotes C. data D. charts
66. What is the writer’s attitude toward the new technology in this passage
A. Optimistic B. Critical C. Indifferent D. Doubtful
D
Reading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text.The reader puts questions ,as it were,to the text and gets answers.With the help of these, he puts further questions.
For most of the time this "cocversation"goes on below the level of unconsciousness.At times, however,we become conscious.This is ususlly when we are running into difficulties,when mismatch is occuring between expectations and the meaning of a text.When successful matching is being experienced,our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level.
Different people converse(交流) with the text differently.Some stay very close to the words on the page;others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining them.The former represents a kind of comprehension which is written in the text.The latter represents high levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.
There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is read.We call this a "process"conversation as opposed to a "content"conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we use in reading. If we are an advanced reader, our ability to hold a process conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a process conversation. It is exactly this kind of conversation that is of improtance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a high level.
67.Reading as a kind of conversation between the reader and the text becomes conscious only when________.
A. the reader’s expectations agree with what is said in the text
B. the reader has trouble understanding what the author says
C. the reader asks questions and gets answers
D. the reader understands a text very well
68. At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to ____________
A. read a text slowly B. read without thinking hard
C. interpret a text in their own way D. concentrate on the meaning of words only
69. A “process” conversation has to do with _____________.
A. the application of reading strategies
B. match our expectations with the meaning of a text
C. the development of our ability to check the details
D.determining the main idea of a text
70. According to the passage , it is of great importance for readers at a higher level to maintain a balance between ______________.
A. conscious and unconscious levels of comprehension
B. the reader’s expectations and the meaning of a text
C. lower and higher level of comprehension
D. interpreting and criticizing a text
第四部分：任务型阅读(共１０小题，每小题１分，满分１０分)
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应的横线上。
I used to be the messiest person alive. Over the years, through watching others and by trial and error, I have finally found ways to come up with plans, organize them and follow through with them.
Make an outline of everything you need to have and do to make your plan happen. Make a list of all of the steps that need to be accomplished and think about what needs to be done.
Detail everything thoroughly and read over it so you can start coming up with some mental solutions of how to carry out your plans.
You should ensure that if for some reason way one doesn’t work, you have way two and way three to lean back on. Therefore, different ways are needed at hand. It’s just a matter of being organized. Chances are that there is always more than one way of doing things, and chances are that if one of those ways doesn’t work, one of the other ones will.
Committing yourself to finishing at least part if not all of your plan at once is also necessary. It will show that you not only have initiative to get things rolling, but that you are interested in the results obtained with making the move to get everything done.
If you make a commitment to finish before a specific time, make sure that you carry that out, and be sure to do everything in the way you said you would, within the time-frame you set for yourself.
Don’t try to tackle more things all at a time. All that does is delay your progress, distract you and make you lose your interest, motivation and energy.
Carrying out an effective plan requires being as organized as possible. You will only achieve this by sticking to the order of the plan and not deviating or trying to do more at a time.
Last but not least, you should never abandon things mid-project. It will only annoy everyone around you including yourself. Unfinished plans are a waste of time, energy and, in some cases, even money.
So, don’t be afraid of organization. The older we get, the more necessary it becomes to have the skills necessary to follow through with confidence and to be able to carry through plans in an organized and manageable way. It pays to be organized, after all.
Title: Tips on how to be (71)___________ in your life
