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)
第一节 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,
并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
I know what you’re thinking : pizza (比萨饼)? For breakfast? But the truth
is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a. m. if you want to
I know lots of women who skip breakfast (不吃早餐) , and they have a ton of
different excuses for doing it . Some say they don’t have time. others think they’re
“saving” calories (卡路里), still others just don’t like breakfast food .
But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re
trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would
be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking , R , D , who developed
the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can
be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.
Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success
stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in
the day. Researchers at the University of Southem California found that breakfast
skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a
morning meal.
So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up
having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try
heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do
it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the
leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save yourself some
pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.
41. The word “leftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.
A. food remaining after a meal
B. things left undone
C. meals made of vegetables
D. pizza topped with fruit
42. What can we infer from the text?
A. Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry.
B. Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast.
C. There are some easy ways of cooking a meal.
D. Eating vegetables helps save energy.
43. According to the last paragraph, it is important to____________.
A. eat something for breakfast
B. be careful about what you eat
C. heat up food before eating it
D. eat calorie-controlled food
44. The text is written mainly for those_____________.
A. who go to work early
B. who want to lose weight
C. who stay up late
D. who eat before sleep
B
Having a husband means an extra seven hours of housework each week for women,
according to a new study. For men, getting married saves an hour of housework a week.
“It’s a well-known pattern,” said lead researcher Frank Stafford at University
of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research. “Men usually work more outside the
home, while women take on more of the housework.”
He points out that differences among households(家庭)exist. But in general,
marriage means more housework for women and less for men. “And the situation gets
worse for women when they have children,” Stafford said.
Overall, times are changing in the American home. In 1976, women busied
themselves with 26 weekly hours of sweeping-and-dusting work, compared with 17 hours
in 2005. Men are taking on more housework, more than doubling their housework hours
from six in 1976 to 13 in 2005.
Single women in their 20s and 30s did the least housework, about 12 weekly hours,
while married women in their 60s and 70s did the most-about 21 hours a week.
Men showed a somewhat different pattern, with older men picking up the broom
more often than younger men. Single men worked the hardest around the house, more
than that of all other age groups of married men.
Having children increases housework even further. With more than three children,
for example, wives took on more of the extra work, clocking about 28 hours a week
compared with husbands’10 hours.
45.

to
the “well-known
pattern” in
Paragraph
1,

46. How many hours of housework did men do every week in the 1970s?

C. About 13.
B. About 26.
D. About y.
47. What kind of man is doing most housework according to the text?
A. An unmarried man.
B. An older married man.
C. A younger married man.
D. A married man with children.
48. What can we conclude from Stafford’s research?
A. Marriage gives men more freedom.
B. Marriage has effects on job choices.
C. Housework sharing changes over time.
D. Having children means doubled housework.

GUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) – A fish that lives in mangrove swamps(红树沼泽)
across the Americas can live out of water for months at a time, similar to how animals
adapted(适应)to land millions of years ago, a new study shows.
The Magrove Rivulus, a type of small killifish, lives in small pools of water
in a certain type of empty nut or even old beer cans in the mangrove swamps of Belize,
the United States and Brazil. When their living place dries up, they live on the
land in logs(圆木),said Scott Taylor, a researcher at the Brevard Endangered Lands
Program in Florida.
The fish, whose scientific name is Rivulus marmoratus, can grow as large as three
inches. They group together in logs and breathe air through their skin until they
can find water again.
The new scientific discovery came after a trip to Belize.
“We kicked over a log and the fish just came crowding out,” Taylor told Reuters
in neighboring Guatgemala by telephone. He said he will make his study on the fish
known to the public in an American magazine early next year.
In lab tests, Taylor said he found the fish can live up to 66 days out of water
without eating.
Some other fish can live out of water for a short period of time. The walking
catfish found in Southeast Asia can stay on land for hours at time, while lungfish
found in Australia, Africa and South America can live out of water, but only in an
inactive state. But no other known fish can be out of water as long as the Mangrove
Rivulus and remain active, according to Patricia Wright, a biologist at Canada’s
University of Guelph.
Further studies of the fish may tell how animals changed over time.
“These animals live in conditions similar to those that existed millions of
years ago, when animals began making the transition(过渡)from water onto land,”
Wright said.
49. The Mangrove Rivulus is a type of fish that _______.
A. likes eating nuts
B. prefers living in dry places
C. is the longest living fish on earth
D. can stay alive for two months out of water
50. Who will write up a report on Mangrove Rivulus?
A. Patricia Wright
B. Researchers in Guatemala
C. Scientists from Belize
D. Scott Taylor
51. According to the text, lungfish can________
A. breathe through its skin
B. move freely on dry land
C. remain alive out of water
D. be as active on land as in water
52. What can we say about the discovery of Mangrove Rivulus?
A. It was made quite by accident
B. It was based on a lab test of sea life
C. It was supported by an American magazine
D. It was helped by Patricia Wright

The American newspaper has been around for about three hundred years. In 1721,
the printer James Franklin. Benjamin's older brother, started the New England
Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper. He filled
his paper with stories of adventure, articles on art, on famous people, and on all
sorts of political subjects.
Three centuries after the appearance of Franklin's Courant. few believe that
newspapers in their present printed form will remain alive for long Newspaper
complies are losing advertisers(广告商), readers, market value. and. in some cases,
their sense of purpose at a speed that would not have been imaginable just several
