第三题、阅读理解（共20题；每小题2分，满分40分）
A
Someone can be overweight，underweight，or at an ideal weight. There is no one perfect weight for a kid to be, but there are ideal weight ranges(范围)for kids based on height and whether the person is a girl or a boy. Though healthy kids can weigh more or less，a good weight range is
about 15 to 70 pounds (about 23 to 32 kilograms) for a kid who’s 8 years old.
But being overweight is more than a number on the scale（天秤）. A doctor is a good person to make a judgment about a kid’s weight. The doctor can look at a kid’s ideal weight range while also t aking the kid’s weight into account. A taller kid naturally could weigh more than a shorter kid and not be overweight. Perhaps the best way to determine if a kid is overweight is to use something called body mass index, or BMI.
BMI uses a kid’s height and weight in a calculation that results in a number. That number can be marked on a chat(图表) that also considers the kid’s age and if the kid is a girl or a boy. BMI can show how much body fat the person has，but it’s only an estimate（估计）. Because muscle weighs more than fat，it’s possible for a muscular person to have a high BMI，but that does n’t mean he or she is overweight. Likewise，it’s possible for someone to have a low or ideal BMI but still have too much body fat.
36.The ideal weight of an eight-year-old girl may be _____.
A. 13 kilograms
B. 25 kilograms
C. 20 kilograms
D. 15 kilograms
37. BMI perhaps is something to be used to decide_____.
A. if a kid is too fat
B. if a kid is short
C. if a kid is tall
D. if a kid is too young
38. We can know from this passage that _____.
A. only a few kids have perfect weight
B. a kid who has a low BMI must be overweight
C. a taller kid is most likely to be overweight
D. a kid who has a high BMI can’t be overweight
39. The underline word “Likewise” in the last paragraph means“______”
A. To one’s surprise
B. I n the same way
C. What is more
D. sooner or later
40. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. The weight of a boy is different from the weight of a girl.
B. The doctor can tell whether a kid is fat or thin.
C. The ways to decide what a ki d’s weight is like.
D. BMI is very important to kids who are overweight.
B
If you are having trouble falling asleep, you’re in good company. About 65% of Americans said they have sleeping problems a few nights each week, according to a recent study by the National Sleep Foundation. Sleeping too little can lead to a higher risk of becoming fat and getting depressed. But before you go to a doctor for advice, it’s worth examining your sleeping habits one more time. Some of your favorite evening habits may have something to do with the sleeping problems.
1.Setting a Bright Alarm Clock
The light of your bright alarm clock can prevent you from falling asleep. You can make your room as dark as possible. Cover the bright numbers with a book or consider buying a small travel clock. Your cell phone clock may also do the trick.
2.Counting Sheep
When you just can’t fall asleep, it is useless to stay in bed to count sheep. If you’ve been trying to fall asleep for more than 30 minutes, the National Sleep Foundation suggests that you get up to do some reading or watch TV for a while. Such activities will make you sleepy. Before you know it, you will be going back to bed really tired.
3. Exercising Late at Night
Daytime workouts (锻炼) will keep you full of energy for hours. That’s why you don’t want to exercise within three hours of hitting the sack. . Fierce physical activity raises your body temperature and pumps your energy level --- both are bad for a good night’s sleep.
41. What can we learn from the first sentence of the passage?
A. It’s not good to fail to fall asleep at night.
B. People in a good company often have sleeping problems.
C. There are many people who have sleeping problems.
D. You should find someone to talk t o if you can’t fall asleep.
42. The underlined part “hitting the sack” in the last paragraph means “”.
A. going back home
B. going to bed
C. going to the gym
D. falling asleep
43. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Why watching TV and reading books make people sleepy.
B. Why the bright alarm clock keeps you awake.
C. What to do if you can’t fall asleep after 30 minutes.
D. The bad results of getting too little sleep.
44. By writing the passage, the writer mainly wants to tell us .
A. why so many people can’t sleep well at night
B. how to enjoy a good night’s sleep
C. that sleeping problems are troubling more and more people
D. that people may solve their sleeping problems by changing some habits
C
No one is glad to hear that his body has to be cut open by a surgeon（外科医生）and part of it taken out．Today, however, we needn’t worry about feeling pain during the operation．The sick person falls into a kind of sleep, and when he awakes, the operation is finished．But these happy conditions are fairly new．
Long ago，operation had usually to be done while the sick man could feel everything．The sick man had to be held down on a table by force while the doctors did their best for him．He could feel all the pain if his leg or arm was being cut off, and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched．
Soon after 1770, Joseph Priestley discovered a gas which is now called “laughing
gas”．Laughing gas became known in America．Young men and women went to parties to try it．Most of them spent their time laughing, but one man at a party, Horace Wells, noticed that people didn’t seem to feel pain when they were using this gas．He decided to make an experiment on himself．He asked a friend to help him．
Wells took some of the gas, and his friend pulled out one of Wells’’teeth．Wells felt no pain at all．
As he didn’t know enough about laughing gas，he gave a man less gas than he should have．The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out．
Wells tried again，but this time he gave too much of the gas, and the man died．Wells never forgot this terrible event．
45. Long ago, when the sick man was operated on, he ．
A. could feel nothing
B. could not want anything
C. could feel all the pain
D. could do anything
46. Using the laughing gas, the people did not seem to _________．
A．be afraid of anything B．feel pain C．want to go to the parties D．be ill 47. If a man took less laughing gas than he should have when an operation went on, he _________．
A. felt nothing
B. felt very comfortable (舒服的)
C. still felt pain
D. would die
48. One who took too much of the laughing gas ．
A. would laugh all the time
B. would die
C. would never feel pain
D. would be very calm
D
As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.
Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(录像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And t he more children there are, the less question-asking there is.”
The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who ne eds the most attention. “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”
49. The writer’s purpose in writing the passage is to .
A. show the relationship between parents and children
B. teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table
C. report on the findings of a study
D. give information about family problems
50. Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because .
A. they are busy serving food to their children
B. they are busy keeping order at the dinner table
C. they have to pay more attention to younger children
D. they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family
51. By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle
children .
A. have to help their parents to serve dinner
B. get the least attention from the family
C. are often kept away from the dinner table
D. find it hard to keep up with other children
52. Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?
A．It is important to have the right food for children.
B．It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.
C．Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.
D．Elder children should help the younger ones at Dinner
E
There are a lot of dangerous and terrible pests in India, but the bees are the most terrible．They are killers．
Last year I was on holiday there．Riding along a road one sunny morning I found the air above me suddenly became thick with bees．Although it was hot, I went cold all over．To run away fast seemed the only thing to do, but my horse was frightened, too．He jumped and then threw me to the ground．
The village was about half a mile away．I began to run．But by now I was covered from head to foot with bees．They crawled（爬满）all over me, stinging (刺) with terrible pain．I tore them away（使它们离开）, but make room for others．Each time I opened my lips（嘴唇）for breath, more bees entered my mouth．I could hardly breathe．
Then I reached the village．I ran towards a house that was being built．As soon as the men working there saw the bees, they ran for safety at top speed．
My eyes had completely closed．I went into a pile of something soft．I pushed myself down into this until my head and shoulders were covered．This made bees angry and they began to attack my legs．I struggled but soon became tired out．The bees had won．
At last I was saved by two clever soldiers．They ran to fetch a pile of（一堆）dry grass and quickly surrounded me with fire．I later learned, they looked after me for the next three hours until a doctor was found and brought．
53．When the air suddenly became thick with bees, ____ ．
A．it became cold B．the writer went cold with fear
