第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分）。
第一節(jié) 選擇題（共17小題；每小題2分，滿分34分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題中所給的四個選項（A.B.C.D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A
On the whole, it’s not something we parents shout about, but one in four of us does it. Hiring private tutors(指導老師) for our children is now widespread. And this year, as always, the Easter holidays will be peak time(高峰期) for tutor demand.
“My husband and I tried to tutor her at home, but we found all our knowledge was out of date and we were only confusing Zarreen. We also tried a group revision course but all the children were sitting exams for different boards(入學考試). On the whole, we think one-to-one tuition works best and it is worth the money. In our case, Preeta is a bit like an elder sister to Zarreen and that’s the most important,” says Ashan Sabri from London, whose daughter Zarreen, 18, is having tuition in biology and chemistry in preparation for A-levels this summer.
In fact, Preeta Datta is only six years older than her pupil and she is happy to provide extra tuition through mobile phone. “Maybe Zarreen will call me two or three times a week with a question about biology or chemistry, and that’s fine to me,” says Datta.
The real question is: does tutoring do any good?
“It’s not the magic bullet,” says Professor Judith Ireson. “It’s still up to the child to do the learning. If he or she isn’t interested, then sending them to a private tutor won’t do any good.”
In which case, surely it’s time to break open the
Champagne(香檳酒)? Not
necessarily, says Elaine Tyrrell, head of the
“While we recommend private tutoring for a few children whose first language isn’t English, we don’t encourage it for the others,” says Tyrrell. “With the level of education they get here, children really ought to be able to pass the entrance exams without any extra teaching. Besides, our biggest worry is that they might just get in with the help of last-minute tutoring, but, once they actually get to that school, they won’t be able to manage.”
It’s a point worth considering. After all, who would want their child to stay at the bottom of the class?
56. The passage is most probably written by .
A. a parent B. a famous professor
C. a student D. a famous headmaster
57. In Ashan Sabri’s opinion, which method is most suitable for her daughter? .
A. Taking different kinds of exams B. Teaching her at home by herself
C. Finding a private tutor to help her D. Taking part in group revision courses
58. Elaine Tyrrell doesn’t encourage parents to hire private tutors for their children mainly because .
A. children may be misled by private tutors
B. the quality of private tutoring may be poor
C. the education that children receive in class is enough for them
D. children may not have the real ability to deal with their further studies
59. What attitude does the author hold towards home tutoring? .
A. Critical B. Uncertain C. Supportive D. Uninterested
60. From the passage we know that .
A. Preeta Datta is only twenty four years old.
B. Preeta Datta is head of the
C. Judith Ireson is a
teacher of the
D. Ashan Sabri has a daughter named Zarreen, who is over 18

Do you want to see the effects of global warming? Then head north．Will Steger is going to take all of us there．
Steger，64，the first person to make a dogsled trip to the Noah Pole，is a very famous and admired polar explorer．He’s at home in frozen parts of the world where few humans ever step on．Steger is also a devoted environmentalist who was early to ring the alarm bell on global warming．He saw its effects firsthand in frequent polar expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctica．
Steger is about to lead a team of six young adventurers on a 1,400-mile，60-day-long dogsled trip across Ellesmere Island，in the Canadian Arctic．The sea ice in that region should still be frozen．“We want to take our audience to the front lines of global warming，”says Steger．The team will be uploading videos，stories and photos to the website global-warming l01.com as they march along，allowing armchair adventurers and kids in classrooms to follow their progress day to day．“We can actually bring the audience up there，”Steger says．
Stege's team will include some already-famous young explorers．Sam Branson，the 22-year-old son of British airline tycoon(大亨) Richard Branson，is an experienced Arctic traveler．Also on the journey will be 27-year-old Norwegian Sigrid Ekran．Last year，Ekran became only the second woman in history to win Rookie(新秀) of the Year for the Iditarod Sled Dog Race.
What they will see may be surprising．Even Steger doesn’t know exactly what to expect．Climate change has already reshaped the geography of the Arctic．“Within a decade or less，it's going to be impossible to reach the North Pole by dog team，without flotation(漂浮)，”says Steger．
Climate change is happening，but people can change too．Their willingness to change will determine the shape of Earth’s future．
61. Steger is the following except ．
A．a(chǎn) sixty-four-year old man B．a(chǎn) very famous polar explorer

D．getting used to the present changes of the earth
65．The best title for this passage would be ,
A．The Arctic Is In Danger B．Discoveries of the
C．Sledding Through the Arctic D．Consequences of Global Warming
C
A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made----the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than the common labors or even the skilled factory workers，he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort．
This attitude toward manual(體力的) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life．One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies，and college education for the children；yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward，furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery．And the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes．A professional man may talk about washing the car，digging in his flowerbeds，painting the house．His wife may even help with these things，just as he often helps her with the dishwashing．The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living，or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.
66．According to the passage，the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because .
A．servants in
B．she takes pride in what she can do herself
C．she can hardly afford servants
D．it is easy to prepare a meal with canned food．
67. The expression “wait on table" in the second paragraph means “ ”.
A．work in a furniture shop B．keep accounts for a bar
C. wait to lay the table D. serve customers in a restaurant
68. Which of the following may serve as the best title of the passage? .
A. A Respectable Self-made Family B. American Attitude Toward Manual Labor
C. Characteristics of American Culture D. The Development of Manual Labor

In traditional coal-fired power stations, the coal is burned in air in a big furnace（爐子） and the carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.

Dear Bede,
I share a dormitory（寢室） with seven of my classmates. We share nearly everything. We study, play, and sleep together. Everything is great except for one thing―two of them have very smelly feet. The smell makes me sick. I have failed to persuade them to wash their feet every day. The situation is so bad that I’ve even tried to swap places with students in another dormitory, but they’ve refused my request. What can I do?

Dear Dong Zhitao,
This is quite a difficult question to answer. On one hand you are upset by your classmates refusing to wash their feet, and on the other hand you don’t wish to offend your friends by making a big issue out of the problem.
My advice to you is this:
As you have clearly failed to get your friends to change their ways by asking them yourself, you should now involve someone in authority.
Approach one of your teachers, or the head of the dormitory, and explain the situation to them.
Ask them politely to remind everyone staying in the dormitory to wash every day, as personal hygiene is extremely important. You can also ask your teacher/dormitory head to mention your complaint. Hopefully a word to your classmates from a teacher will solve your problem. I hope this helps.
