第二局部：阅读理解〔共两节,60 总分值〕
第一节：阅读以下短文，从每题所给四个选项中，选出最正确选项〔共25 小题：每题2分，总分值50分〕
A
Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents' home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station(加油站)about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.
I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.
Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池)was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.
"Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
"Thank you" - two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.

“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,〞 said David Belle, the founder of parkour(跑酷).
Do you love running? It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. But what if making your morning jog a creative one? Like jumping from walls and over gaps, and ground rolls? Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale? Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill(窗台) and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just bec ause of Bond’s wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.
Yes, that’s parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is considered an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.
Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that.
Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy(理念) behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said, “I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything.〞
Another philosophy we’ve learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence.
41. Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of ___________.
A. its founder, David Belle
B. the varieties of participants
C. its risks and tricks
D. the film, Casino Royale
42. The underlined word〞obstacles〞in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to〞〞
A. streets
B. objects
C. barriers
D. roofs
43. Which of the following is true of parkour?
A. It needs special training.
B. It is a good but boring sport.
C. It challenges human abilities.
D. It is a team sport.
44. As its participants move around a city, ___________.
A. they can ask for help
B. they may choose to escape
C. they must learn to survive
D. they should run to extremes
45. Which of the following is the philosophy of parkour?
A. Determination and freedom.
B. Excitement and freedom
C. Dreams and success.
D. Sports and extremes.

Running like the wind, roaring like thunder, tigers have long been feared and respected as a king of the animal world. But last week a report said that there are no more than 30 wild tigers left in south China.
This was the conclusion of a team of scientists from China’s State Forestry Administration and the World Nature Fund.
The South China tiger, also known as the Chinese tiger, is native to southern China. In the 1950s, there were over 4,000 tigers found in mountain forests in the country. But due to the destruction of their natural habitat and uncontrolled hunting, it has been pushed on to the list of the world’s top ten most endangered species.
Sixty-six of the big cats can be found in the cages of a dozen zoos around China. But they are nothing like their wild cousins. They have lost their natural skills such as hunting and killing. If they were set free they could not look after themselves.
“Breeding has damaged the quality of the species,〞 said Pei Enle, deputy director of the Shanghai Zoo.
To reintroduce the species into the wild, the country started a programme to send five to ten young tigers to South Africa. Four of them have already arrived. Progress has been made as two elder tigers have recovered some of their instincts 〔本能〕 and can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base.
“South Africans are very experienced in reintroducing big animals to the wi ld. The country has very good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in,〞 said Lu Jun, office director of the National Wildlife Research and Development Centre. “We tried in Fujian Province, but it was not successful as there was not a complete eco-chain (生物链) and there was a lack of space.〞
The tigers should return to China in when the reservations in Fujian are ready.
51. What is the main reason for the South China tiger becoming one of the world's top ten most endangered species?
A．Because it has lost its natural instincts．
B．Because there is not a complete eco-chain．
C．Because there is no space for it．
D．Because of uncontrolled hunting and destroyed its natural living conditions．52. How is the programme of sending several tigers to South Africa getting on? A．Its effect still remains to be seen．
B．Two tigers can already compete with their wild cousins．
C．Some of the tigers are already on the road to recovering their natural skills．D．The tigers should be able to recover their instincts completely by ．
53．By saying " but they are nothing like their wild cousins", the writer means that ______．
A．they are no longer feared by other wild animals
B．they don't know how to hunt or kill
C．a complete change has resulted in the species because of breeding
D．to reintroduce them into the wild has become an urgent task
54．What is the purpose of sending young tigers to South Africa?
A．To help the tigers recover their ability to live in the wild．
B．To provide them with a better environment．
C．To get the tigers to go on a tour．
D．To find a complete eco-chain for them．
55．Which one is not the reason for South Africa being chosen as the training place? A．Because the tigers can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base．B．Because South Africans are skilled at dealing with the tigers．
C．Because there is a complete eco-chain and enough space there．
D．Because the country has good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in．

one Tuesday evening in the beginning of the fall 1996 semester(学期) at shippensburg university, sirens(警笛) sounded. These sirens were not in celebration; they were a cry to the university that something was wrong. A house, only one block away, was on fire. Nine of the university's students lived there.
From the minute the word got out that help was needed, it seemed like everyone showed up. The victims〔受灾者〕 of the fire were offered endless invitations for housing for the night. The very next day, everyone got into gear to do their part in helping them. Flyers (小传单) were posted with items that were immediately needed, just to get these students through this next couple of days. Boxes for donations(捐赠物) and money jars were placed in every residence hall〔学生宿舍〕．As a residence director，I went before the students in my hall to ask them to do what they could. I knew that college students don't have much, but I asked them to do their best: “every little bit will help." I really didn't think they could do much. I was proved wrong.
At the hall council meeting the night after the fire, my residents decided to have a wing competition, where each wing of the building would team up to see who could bring in the most donations. I announced that the wing who won would receive a free pizza party.
Thursday evening we announced over the pa system that we were beginning the wing competition. Within minutes, the place exploded. The single large box that I had placed in the lobby (大厅) was over-flowing. We quickly grabbed more boxes, and we watched in amazement as they, too, filled to the brim〔边；沿〕. Members of the resident assistant staff and I began to count the items. I was astonished by what I saw, and I was inspired by these kids.
when we came to the final tally〔得分〕, the winners turned to me and announced that they would like to donate their winnings as well. They wanted the victims of the fire to have their pizza party.
Tears welled up in my eyes. I had watched these students jump to action, work tirelessly and donate all that they could. And then, as if that were not enough,
they handed over their reward. I was touched and so very proud of them.
56. The writer mainly wanted to by the story.
A. tell us the suffering of nine of the college students from a fire
B. praise the college students helping the victims selflessly
C. tell us how successful the wing competition was
D. show he was deeply moved by the college students' action
57. The phrase "get into gear" in the second paragraph means .
A. start working
B. take action
C. be prepared
D. be eager
58. At first, the residence director thought .
A .it was impossible to expect the college students to donate anything
B. it was easy to collect a lot of donations from the college students
C. the college students would donate something but not much
D. the college students would donate all the items they had
59. The wing competition was held .
A. several days after the fire
B. the night after the fire
C. a week after the fire
D. two days after the fire
60. The phrase “in amazement〞 in paragraph 5 means
A . satisfiedly B. excitedly C. surprisedly D. happily

I was playing at my cousin house. Since his family was rich than mine, he had more toys than I did. There was one on particular I’d always wanted. I put into my pocket when he wasn’t looking. I guessed, even at that age, I would never be able to enjoy to playing with the toy or faced my cousin again; I would always know I’d done something wrong. Late on, my aunt drove me home. When she dropped me off, I pulled out the toy slow and gave it back. She knows what had happened, but she thanked me and ever mentioned it again.
