第二大题 阅读理解(共 25 小题。第一节每小题 2 分,第二节每小题 1 分;满分 45 分)
第一节 阅读下列短文,从每题所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选
项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
For centuries ,the only form of written correspondence ( 通 信 ) was the
letter .Letters were ,and are ,sent by some form of postal service ,the history of
which goes back a long way. Indeed ,the Egyptians began sending letters from about
2000 BC, as did the Chinese a thousand years later.
Of
course
,modern
postal
services
now
are
much
more
developed
and
faster ,depending as they do on cars and planes for delivery .Yet they are still
too slow for some people to send urgent documents(紧急文件)and letters.
The invention of the fax(传真)machine increased the speed of delivering
documents even more .When you send a fax ,you are sending a copy of a piece of
correspondence to someone by telephone service .It was not until the early 1980s
that such a service was developed enough for businesses to be able to fax documents
to each other.
The fax service is still very much in use when copies of documents require to
be sent ,but ,as a way of fast correspondence, it has been largely taken the place
of by email. Email is used to describe messages sent from one computer user to
another.
There are advantages and disadvantages with emails. If you send someone and email,
then he will receive it extremely quickly. Normal postal services are rather slow
as far as speed of delivery is concerned.
However ,if you write something by email ,which you might later regret ,and send
it immediately ,there is no chance for second thoughts. At least ,if you are posting
a letter you have to address and seal(封)the envelope and take it to the post
box .There is plenty of time to change your mind. The message is think before you
email!
41.We can learn from the text that
.
A.email is less popular than the fax service
B.the postal service has over the years become faster
C.the postal service has over the years become slower
D.the fax service has a history as long as the postal service does

C.the fax machine was invented after the 1980s
D.letters have been used in Egypt for about 2,000 years
43.In the last paragraph ,the writer mentions “think before you email” to show
that
.
A.you may regret if you don’t seal your envelope
B.you may regret before you send something by email
C.you’d better not send your email in a hurry
D.you need plenty of time to send an email
44.The text mainly deals with

If you’re like most students , you probably read both at home and outside your
home: perhaps somewhere on your schoolyard and maybe even at work during your breaks.
Your reading environment can have a great effect on your understanding ,so give some
thought to how you can create(营造)or choose the right reading environments. The
right environment allows you to stay alert(专注的)and to keep all of your attention
on the text, especially when it is both interesting and difficult.
When you’re at home ,you can usually create effective conditions for reading.
You might want to choose a particular place— a desk or table, for example –where
you always read .Make sure the place you choose is well lighted ,and sit in a chair
that requires you to sit straight. Reading in a chair that’s too soft and comfortable
is
likely
to
make
you
sleepy!
Keep
your
active
reading
tools
(pens ,markers ,notebooks or paper) and a dictionary close at hand.
Before you sit down for a reading period ,try to reduce all possible
interruptions. Turn off your phone, the television, and the radio. Tell your family
members or roommates that you’ll be busy for a while .If necessary, put a “Do not
disturb” sign on your door! The more interruptions you must deal with while you
read, the harder it will be to keep your attention on the task at hand.
49.The author believes that the right reading environment __________.
A.helps readers a little in their reading tasks
B.helps readers a lot in their reading tasks
C.can only be created at one’s home
D.can only be created outside one’s home
50.Which type of the following interruptions is mentioned in the text?

C.The Ways to Reduce Possible Interruptions
D.What to Read
D
In many countries the standard of living enjoyed by their people has increased
rapidly in recent years. Sadly, not everyone in these countries is so fortunate and
many people in rich countries are homeless.
The reasons for homelessness are various, but poverty(贫穷) is undoubtedly one
of the main causes. The homeless people may have become jobless and then been unable
to pay their rent and so no longer have a roof over their heads. Often, the fact
that unemployed people get help from the government prevents this from happening,
but not always.
Some homeless people are mentally ill and have no one to look after them. Some
are young people who, for one reason or another, have left home and have nowhere
to live. Many of them have had a serious disagreement with their parents and have
left home, choosing to go to a city and live on the streets. Sometimes they have
taken such action because they have been unable to get on with a step-parent.
Many homeless people get into the habit of begging to get enough money to stay
alive, but many of the general public refuse to give anything to beggars. Often they
are moved on by the police, being accused(指控), whether rightly or wrongly, of
forceful begging. There are many who disrespect homeless people.
Some cynics(愤世嫉俗的人) declare that homeless people choose to live the life
which they lead. But who would willingly choose to live in a shop doorway, under
a bridge or in a cardboard box?
52.According to the text, what causes some people to be homeless?
A.Lack of money.
B.The increased standard of living.
C.No government help.
D.Agreement with their parents.
53.It can be inferred from the text that _________.
