第二部分 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)

在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Growing up in Philadelphia, Lieberman started cooking with his stay-at-home dad
when he was seven. His food-loving family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned
what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills greatly
during a year abroad before college, learning from a cook in Italy and studying local
specialties (A&^T ^F fe^) in Germany, Spain and France. At Yale, he was known for
throwing dinner parties, single-handedly frying and baking while mixing drinks for
dozens of friends. Just for fun, he and some friends decided to tape a show named
Campus Cuisine about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his
classmates how to do things like make drinks out of dining-hall fruit. That helped
the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after
classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, with
which his name went beyond the school and finally to the Food Network.
Food Network producer Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network
television. He says Lieberman' s charisma is key. " Food TV isn' t about food
anymore," says Flay. " It' s about your personality (^"ft) and finding a way to keep
people* s eyeballs on your show. "
But Lieberman isn' 1 putting all his eggs in one basket. After taping the first
season of the new show, Lieberman was back in his own small kitchen preparing
sandwiches. An airline company (M $'^'Xl) was looking for someone to come up with
a tasteful, inexpensive and easy-to-make menu to serve on its flights. Lieberman
got the job.
41. We can learn from the text that Lieberman' s family _______.
A. have relatives in Europe
own a restaurant
B. love cooking at home
C. often hold parties
D.
42. The Food Network got to know Lieberman _______.

on a television program

A. A natural ability to attract others.
C. Lieberman' s after-class interest.
B. A way to show one's achievement.
D. Lieberman' s fine cooking skill.
44. Why did the airline company give Liebeman the job?
A. He could prepare meals in a small kitchen.
B. He was famous for his slows on Food TV.
C. He was good at using eggs to make sandwiches.
D. He could cook cheap, delicious and simple meals.
45. What can we learn about Lieberman from the text?
A. He is clever but lonely.
C. He enjoys traveling around.
B. He is friendly and active.
D. He often changes his menus.
B
Some people have the feeling that nothing can be done about their poor reading
ability (能力). They feel hopless about it. Can you learn to read better, or must
you agree that nothing can be done about it?
To be sure, people are different. You cannot expect to do everything as well
as certain other people do. If all the students in a class tried out for basketball,
some would be very good players; others would be very poor; and many would be in
between. But even the very poor players can become much better players if they are
guided in the right way, and with plenty of practice. It is the same with reading.
Some seem to enjoy reading and to read well without any special help. Others find
reading a slow and tiring job. In between, there are all degrees of reading ability.
Many experiments have shown that just about every poor reader can improve his
reading ability. In these experiments, the poor readers were given tests of reading
ability. After some of the causes of their poor reading were discovered, they were
given special instructiong and practice in reding. After a few months, another test
of the same kind was given. In nearly all cases, these people had raised their reading
scores.
46. With the example of basketball players, the author shows
.
A. why certain people are poor readers.
B. that there are differences in people’s abilities
C. why some people are good basketball players
D. that good basketball players can be good readers
47. To improve their reading albility, people should
.
A. work long and hard
C. have special help and practice
B. take different forms of tests
D. try different reading materials
48. The experiments mentioned in the text show that
.
A. good readers seem to enjoy reading
B. almost all poor reders can make progress
C. causes of poor reading are difficult to find out
D. tests help people improve their reading ability
C
Odiand remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant
in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and
important woman.
Thirty years have passed, but Odiand can' t get the memory out of his mind, nor
the woman' a kind reaction ( fsi^L). She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a
kind voice, told the young Odiand, " It' s OK. It wasn' t your fault. " When she
left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO (^.lHO with a life
lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.
Odiand isn't the only CEO to have made this discovery. Rather, it seems to be
one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. It' s hard
to get a dozen CEOs to agree about anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule.
They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is
like a window into the soul.
Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, " I
could buy this place and fire you," or "I know the owner and I could have you fired.
" Those who say such things have shown more about their character (\!m) than about
their wealth and power.
The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO
Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swanson' s Unwritten Rules of
Management.
"A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice
person," Swan-son says. " I will never offer a job to the person who is sweet to
the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables. "
49. What happened after Odiand dropped the ice cream onto the woman' s dress?
A. He was fired.
C. The woman comforted him.
B. He was blamed.
D. The woman left the restaurant at once.
50. Odiand learned one of his life lessons from ______.
A. his experience as a waiter
C. an article in Fortune
B. the advice given by the CEOs
D. an interesting best-selling
book
51. According to the text, most CEOs have the same opinion about _______.
A. Fortune 500 companies
C. Swanson' s book
B. the Management Rules
D. the Waiter Rule
52. From the text we can learn that _______.
A. one should be nicer to important people
B. CEOs often show their power before others
C. one should respect others no matter who they are
D. CEOs often have meals in expensive restaurants
D
It is difficult for doctors to help a person with a damaged brain. Without enough
blood, the brain lives for only three to five minutes. More often the doctors can'
t fix the damage. Sometimes they are afraid to try something to help because it is
dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person worse if he operates
on the brain.
Dr. Robert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help.
He thinks doctors should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain
can live without blood for 30 minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do
something for the brain.
Dr. White tried his idea on 13 monkeys. First he taught them to do different
jobs, then he operated on them. He made the monkeys' blood go through a machine.
The machine cooled the blood. Then the machine sent the blood back to the monkeys'
brains. When the brain' s temperature was 10°C, Dr. White stopped the blood to the
brain. After 30 minutes he turned the blood back on. He warmed the blood again. After
their operations the monkeys were like they had been before. They were healthy and
busy. Each one could still do the jobs the doctor had taught them.
53. The biggest difficulty in operating on the damaged brain is that _______.
A. the time is too short for doctors
C. the damage is extremely hard to fix
B. the patients are often too nervous
D. the blood-cooling machine might
break down
54. The brain operation was made possible mainly by _______.
A. taking the blood out of the brain
B. trying the operation on monkeys
first
C. having the blood go through a machine D. lowering the brain' s temperature
55. With Dr. White' s new idea, the operation on the damaged brain _______.
A. can last as long as 30 minutes
C. can keep the patient' s brain healthy
B. can keep the brain' s blood warm
D. can help monkeys do different
jobs
56. What is the right order of the steps in the operation?
a. send the cooled blood back to the brain
b. stop the blood to the brain
c. have the blood cooled down
d. operate on the brain
A. a,b,c,d
B. c,a,b,d
b, c, d, a
E
C. c, b, d, a
D.
Most people want to know how things are made. They honestly admit, however, that
they hardly know a thing when it comes to understanding how a piece of music is made.
Where a composer (f^ft^) begins, how he manages to keep going - in fact, how and
where he leams his trade -all are covered in complete darkness. The composer, in
short, is a man of mystery (tt%).
One of the first things the common man wants to know about is the part inspiration
(^.^) plays in a composer' s work. He finds it difficult to believe that composers
are not much interested in that question. Writing music is as natural for the composer
as eating or sleeping for all. Music is something that the composer happens to have
been born for.
The composer, therefore, does not say to himself: "Do I feel inspired?" He says
to himself:
"Do I feel like working today?" And if he feels like working, he does. It is more
or less like saying to himself: "Do I feel sleepy?" If you feel sleepy, you go to
sleep. If you don't feel sleepy, you stay up. If the composer doesn' t feel like
working, he doesn' t work. It' s as simple as that.
57. What would be the best tide for the text?
A. Composer: a man of mystery
C. Relation between sleeping and music
B. Practice makes good music
D. Music: product of nature
58. The words "covered in complete darkness" underlined in Paragraph I most probably
mean
A. difficult to be made
B. without any light
C.
black
in
color
D. not known
59. Most people seem to think that a composer _______ .
A. finds it difficult to write music
B. considers it important to have a
good rest
C. should like to talk about inspiration
D. never asks himself very simple
questions
60. The author will most probably agree that composers _______
A. are bornwith a gift for music
C. work late at night for their music
B. are people full of mystery
D. know a lot about eating and
sleeping
