Text 3
M：Hello.I'd like to make an appointment with Dr Cooper.Could I meet him Monday afternoon?

M：It's the wrong size.I wear size 42，but it's a size 40.
W：I remember now.Your wife bought it yesterday.She wanted a size 41，but we didn't have it.She took the smaller size.
M：She didn't know that I now wear size 42.
W：We don't have a size 42，either.OK，I'll get your money for you.

M：Kathy，have you ever been to Suzhou in East China's Jiangsu Province?
W：Not yet.But I know Suzhou is known as a garden city.
M：Right.The earliest gardens of Suzhou belonged to the King of Wu.They date far back to the Spring and Autumn Period of the 6th century BC.And more gardens were built in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
W：Yes.The number of gardens in Suzhou increased to over 200 from the 16th to the 18th century.Dozens of them have survived to the present and are kept in a good state of preservation.
M：These gardens often have to be constructed in a limited amount of space but still enable one to feel the charm of mountains，forests and springs.Walkways and bridges divide the whole area into smaller gardens within gardens and by the technique of “borrowing views”，scenery is borrowed both from outside and inside the garden.
W：Exactly.Among the classical gardens of Suzhou，I like the Humble Administrator's Garden most，or in Chinese Zhuozheng Yuan.It is the largest private garden in Suzhou，as well as one of the four most famous classical gardens in China.
M：How I wish I could have such a garden of my own!
W：I am afraid this is a dream of many，but one that only very few can realize.Still，we can go to Suzhou to have a look，even though we can't own it.

M：OK.
W：One moment，please.Yes，we've got his reservation here.There's another flight at 11：30 tonight.

Do you like to look at buildings？I do！Today I will visit some very spectacular local e with me On the Go！The first building I visit is Taipei Story House.The building looks European.The Story House has two levels and is made of wood and brick，like most of the houses in Europe.It is amazingly beautiful.
Another interesting building is the Great Church.It is also in European design.It looks like a tall tower.
The Grand Hotel is a landmark of Taipei.It looks like a big palace.We can see many dragons around it.There are over 200，000 dragons around the building!
In my opinion，buildings of the future will look different because of the new technologies.These buildings will have many lights and glass.A future building may look somewhat like a space station!

Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?
The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences.To the Egyptians，green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring，while for Muslims，it means heaven.Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures.In China，children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year.For many nations，blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs.Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils(灾祸)．People's choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies' reactions toward them.Green is said to be the most restful color.It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically.People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.
Red can cause a person's blood pressure to rise and increase people's appetites(食欲)．Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant.Similarly，many commercial websites wi ll have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that easily catches a person's eye.
Blue is another calming color.Unlike red，blue can cause people to lose appetite.So if you want to eat less，some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.
The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room，think about the color carefully.
【解题导语】本文从多方面介绍了颜色对人们的影响和作用，希望我们在生活中能利用这种影响，使生活更加美好。

25．Muslims regard green as a symbol of heaven mainly because of their ________．A．cultural values
B．commercial purposes
C．personal experiences
D．physical reactions to the color
答案 A [细节理解题。

由文章第二段The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences.和．..for Muslims，it means heaven.可知，穆斯林把绿色当做a symbol of heaven更多地是因为cultural values。

注意：句中有as well as时更多地是强调as well as前面的内容，因此选择A项。

]
26．Why will many commercial websites have a red“Buy Now” button?
A．To relax people physically.
B．To increase people's appetites.
C．To encourage people to make a purchase.
D．To cause a person's blood pressure to rise.
答案 C [推理判断题。

根据文章第四段可知，红色能使人血压升高，增强食欲，而商业网站上的红色“Buy Now”按钮的目的根本不是为使人身体得到放松，也不是增强人的食欲和使人血压升高。

商业网站的目的就是为了自己的商业利益，因此，按钮的目的是为了让人购买商品，选择C项。

]
27．Which of the following would be the most proper title for the text?
A．Colors and Human Beings
B．The Cultural Meaning of Color
C．Colors and Personal Experiences
D．The Meaning and Function of Color
答案 D [主旨大意题。

通观全文，文章叙述了颜色cultural values，personal experiences，bodies' reactions等方面的作用和影响，作为文章的题目A项过于宽泛，B 项只提及Cultural Meaning，C项只提及Personal Experiences又不够全面。

D项涉及颜色的Meaning 和 Function两方面，能概括全文大意，因此选择D项。

Owls (猫头鹰) are mysterious creatures.We often think of them as scary.They sometimes live in abandoned houses.They fly without a sound through backyards at night.In stories，they appear with ghosts.When we hear an owl's familiar “whooo...whooo...，”it can make us feel very frightened.Owls fly silently，without even a whisper of wings moving through the air.It's as though they appear out of nowhere—like ghosts on wings.Owls fly and hunt on the darkest of nights.An owl's night habits make it unique.Do these creatures of the night possess strange powers?
Owls possess unusual powers of sight and hearing，but they are not supernatural powers.They are natural adaptations that let them live most efficiently (高效地) at night.There is no reason to fear owls.Their habits make them helpful to humans.By hunting mice and other rodents (啮齿目动物)，owls help to keep a natural balance between plant and animal life.Without owls，there would be a large number of rodents in farmers' fields and storage barns.
More than 100 species of owls occupy a variety of habitats around the world.A few oceanic islands and the Antarctic have no owls.The world's owls come in large，medium，small，smaller，and smallest.For example，the Eurasian eagle owl—one of the largest—has a body that is two to three feet long，with a wingspan (翼展) of up to five and one－half feet.The North American elf owl (the world's smallest owl) is five to six inches long and has a wingspan that measures slightly more than one foot.
Most male and female owls of the same species look alike，although females are usually larger.In some species，the female's colors are like those of the trees or grass where she makes her nest.
Baby owls，called chicks，stay with their parents until they are about three months old.They soon find their own hunting areas，where they may stay for the rest of their lives.Some owls can live 20 years or more.
【解题导语】本文是说明文。

文章介绍了猫头鹰的生活习性及不同种类的特征。

28．Most people regard owls as ________．
A．clever B．hard－working
C．terrifying D．shy
答案 C [推理判断题。

由第一段中的Owls are mysterious creatures.We often think of them as scary可知答案。

]
29．Owls help humans in that they ________．
A．help preserve the balance of nature
B．frighten rodents away from humans
C．have unusual powers
D．help guard backyards
答案 A [细节理解题。

]
30．What is special about owls?
A．They fly silently.
B．They are night hunters.
C．They possess supernatural powers.
D．They can be found around the world.
答案 B [细节理解题。

]
31．The third paragraph is mainly about owls'________．
A．habitats B．sizes
C．species D．wingspans
答案 C [段落大意题。

第三段首句More than 100 species of owls occupy a variety of habitats around the world是主题句，再根据本段中所举的几种猫头鹰可知，本段主要讲猫头鹰的种类。

(2013·辽宁卷)China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a lions of them，all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year，I've found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However，people still use their bicycles to get around.For many，it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors—silver，green，red，blue，yellow，whatever you want.
It's fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads，move skillfully through traffic，and ride even on sidewalks(人行道)．Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.
Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture，I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的)．To be safe，I stayed with a“pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn't want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide，so crossing took time，skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world
as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.

It prevents you from losing an idea.Have you ever forgotten an idea only to lose it later because you didn't write it down？__37__ But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible.If I'm away from my computer，I usually write it down on a piece of paper that I bring wherever I go.I will then transfer the idea to the journal in my computer.

You can use the ideas to propel (鞭策) yourself forward.
__39__ After keeping a journal for years，you can look back at it and see how far you've gone.Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today.The raw ideas you had in the past might have been realized today.

The little parrot __48__ climbed to the macaw's branch and began to move slowly
toward a bit of empty perch near the larger bird，__49__ keeping a watchful eye on any sign of hostility (敌意)．
__50__，the red macaw began to raise his wing；the little bird __51__—this might be a __52__ of hostility.And the macaw was a much bigger bird.
__53__，as he opened his large wing，the macaw looked the little parrot in the eye.What the smaller bird __54__ was not hostility，but friendship.He would have to __55__ the chance.After only a moment's __56__，the little parrot slowly edged over and took shelter under the macaw's __57__ wing.The large bird then hugged the little bird.
This unusual scene of __58__ between strange birds was witnessed by Becky Long，who said，“It was a(n) __59__ event in my life and a moment of such pure sweetness that I will never forget.__60__ this，I never really gave a lot of thought to the expression ‘taking someone under your wing.’”
