三.阅读理解
A
When meeting strangers, we usually notice their hair, skin colour and clothes.
We like to group those things we don't know by comparing them with the things we
know.
So what's wrong with this? For example, we think that short boys can't possibly
be good basketball players. The girls who love to be dressed up can't be excellent
students. Or we think shy students can't be good at giving speeches. These are
typical(典型的) examples of stereotypes.
Stereotypes make people form a wrong opinion about others at first sight. In
fact, it takes a lot more than just looking at a person to know and understand him
or her. The following is my story.
One day, it was snowing, but not very heavily. Before class, I collected all
the exercise books and sent them to the teachers' office. The exercise books looked
piles in my arms, so I could hardly see the ground. Suddenly, I slipped over(滑
倒) and dropped all the exercise books I was carrying.
I tried to stand up but failed, I was about to pick them up when I saw a boy
coming towards me. It was Mike.
Mike and I had been classmates for over 2 years, but we had never shared more
than 5 sentences together. He was a boy with few words, but I liked talking. We were
totally different. I didn't like him and didn't want to be seen at that moment.
"Anything serious?" His words brought me out of my thoughts. "I saw you sitting
on the ground from the back window, so I rushed here. Let me help you!" He helped
me up and picked all the exercise books up.
Seeing this, I was so moved that I couldn't say a single word.
We walked towards the teachers' office and this time, he talked a lot to me.
I found quite a different Mike.
I took a deep breath and said to myself, "I nearly made a big mistake —
judging(判断) MIke only by his appearance."
1. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as typical examples of stereotypes?
A: Dishonest children can't be others' true friends.
B: Shy students can't be good at giving speeches.
C: Short boys can't possibly be good basketball players.
D: The girls who love to be dressed up can't be excellent students.
2. Why did the writer dislike Mike at the beginning?
A: Because the writer didn't know Mike at all.
B: Because Mike didn't hand in his exercise book.
C: Because the writer thought they weren't the same type.
D: Because Mike didn't help the writer collect the exercise books.
3. The writer probably wants to tell us _______.
A: we'd better not go outside on snowy days
B: we should get along well with our classmates
C: people shouldn't judge someone at first sight
D: people with different personalities can't be friends
B
The Diary of a Young Girl was written by a girl named Anne Frank. It is a true
experience of a teenager in wartime(World War II, 1939—1945) and it has also become
a symbol of the victory of the human spirit.
Here's one of Anne's diaries.
1. The underlined phrase "something wonderful" refers to(指代) that _______.

C: the Dutch program was uplifting
D: Mr. Koophuis was cheerful
2. What is the most probable date that Mr. Koophuis returned from hospital?
A: 10 September.
C: 3 October.
3. Which of the following is probably NOT true according to the passage?
A: Anne often faced unpleasant things.

D: 17 October.
Have you ever wondered how we know the things that we know? How do we know, for
example, that the stars are really huge balls of fire like the Sun and very far away?
And how do we know that the Earth is a smaller ball turning round one of those stars,
C
the Sun?
The key to these questions is "evidence", which means the facts, signs or objects
that make you believe something is true.
Sometimes evidence means actually( 实 际 地 ) seeing(or hearing, feelings,
smelling ...) that something is true. Astronauts have travelled far enough from the
Earth to see with their own eyes that it is round. Sometimes our eyes need help.
The "evening star" looks like a bright twinkle in the sky, but with a telescope(望
远镜) you can see that it is a beautiful ball. Something that you learn by direct
seeing(or hearing or feeling ...) is called an observation.
Often evidence isn's just observation on its own, but observation always hides
at the back of it. If there's been a murder, often nobody(except the murderer and
the dead person!) actually observed it. But detectives can gather together lots of
other observations which may all point towards the suspect. If a person's
fingerprints match those found on a knife, this is evidence that he touched it. It
doesn't prove that he did the murder, but it can help when it's joined up with lots
of other evidence.
Prediction(预测) helps to look for evidence. Scientists make a guess about what
might be true. For example, if the world is really round, we can predict that any
of us, going on and on in the same direction, should eventually find ourselves back
where we started.
People sometimes say that you must believe in feelings deep inside, but not all
the inside feelings are real evidence.
What can we do about all this? When somebody tells you something that sounds
possible, think to yourself: "Is there any evidence for that?" And, next time
somebody tells you that something is true, why not say to them: "What kind of evidence
is there for that?" Remember, always think carefully before you believe a word.
1. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A: What you see directly is real evidence.
B: Prediction helps to prove something if it is true.
C: People should always believe their inside feelings.
D: Astronauts find the Earth is round with a telescope.
2. Why does the writer use the example of a detective in Paragraph 4?
A: To explain what prediction is.
B: To tell what observation is called.
C: To introduce how detectives work.
D: To prove evidence is not just observation.
3. The underlined word "eventually" in Paragraph 5 means _______.
A: finally
4. What's the best title of the passage?
A: Evidence speaks
B: Scientists make predictions
C: Inside feelings help get ideas
D: Observation offers the facts
C: completely
B: probably
D: luckily

playing with his classmates. But he hadn't been playing at all.
He had been "kept in" by the school librarian, because he had made the l

Some people have found that they always spend much more on travelling than
planned. Here is how it happens:
1. Preparing too much before travelling
Some people, especially females, like to travel as if starting a new life.
Several weeks before the trip, they would be busy shopping for new dresses, better
sunglasses and best-selling books. They would rather fill their travelling bags up
with all fashionable things. Just travelling? Attending a fashion show more like
it. They care more about their appearance than the sights they see during the trip.
2. Following other travellers blindly
They can't stop shopping for objects they would never normally buy and would
certainly never use. For example, we can find a group of travellers "getting ahead"
to buy "Christmas" presents even in summer.
3. Replacing things that are forgotten to bring
They don't remember to bring things like trainers, cool bags, toothbrushes or
beach towels. The towels sold near beaches are nearly the price of gold leaves. They
spend a lot on those things. However, plenty of new towels are sleeping in their
bathroom at home.

Giving up studying in China's top universities is truly surprising. It's
reported that two young people dropped out of Tsinghua University after they found
they had no interest in their majors(专业). They took the CEE(college entrance
examinations) again. Luckily, they passed the exams and studied new majors in Peking
University. Their actions have come under hot discussion among the public.
Supporters praise the two students for being brave enough to chase(追逐) their
goals.
1. We shouldn't blame(责怪) those who are willing to take a risk and take the
CEE again. It's OK for everyone to choose their favourite major for a better career
in the future.
2. The two students prove that life is full of changes and possibilities. They
set up an example of the power of courage in changing lives.
However those who are against their actions criticize them for being
capricious(任性的).
1. By dropping out after studying for a period of time, the two students have
wasted educational resources, which could have been provided for others.
2. The two students were not wise enough to choose their majors when they first
applied to go to college. Their actions should be a warning to other young people
instead of being followed.
