(共两节，满分30分)
第一节阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的ABC和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
The United Nations says forty million people or so around the world went hungry in 2008, mainly because of higher food prices. Early estimates from the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) show that 963 million people did not get enough to eat.
World food prices have dropped since early 2008. Prices of major crops have decreased by more than half from their height earlier last year. But they remain high compared to earlier years.
But FAO official Hafez Ghanem says lower prices have failed to end the food crisis (危机) in many poor countries. “For millions in developing countries,” he says, “getting enough food every day to live an active and healthy life is a distant dream. ”
The FAO says food shortage is a threat to people's health. Today, two-thirds of the world's undernourished people live in just a few countries. These are India, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Pakistan, Ethiopia and so on.
A report on food insecurity warns that the current economic crisis could send even more people into hunger and poverty.
In sub-Saharan Africa, the percentage of the people who continually go hungry fell from 34% in 1997 to 30% in 2008. But the FAO says Ghana is the only country that has reached two sets of hunger reduction targets. These were set by the 1996 World Food Summit and the Millennium Development Goals. The main reason is the growth in agricultural production in Ghana.
The FAO says some countries in Southeast Asia like Thailand and Vietnam have made progress in hunger reduction goals. But South Asia and Central Asia haven't, and North Korea is still in hot
water.
56. What FAO official Hafez Ghanem says implies（暗示）__________
A. it's easy but takes long to provide people with enough food
B. enough food can make people more active and healthier
C. there is difficulty solving the food shortage in a short time
D. people in developing countries will never get enough food
57. The underlined word "undernourished" in Para. 4 probably means ________.
A. hungry and unhappy
B. unhealthy for lack of food
C. not fat because of poverty
D. undeveloped and poor
58. What is the best title of this passage?
A. The food production of the world
B. The hunger reduction target of the FAO
C. The food shortage around the world
D. The solution to the global food shortage
B
French surgeons have performed what they said on Wednesday was the world's first partial face transplant--- giving a new nose, chin and lips to a woman attacked by a dog.
Specialists from two French hospitals carried out the operation on a 38-year-old woman on Sunday in the northern city of Amiens by taking the face from a brain-dead woman, who had hanged herself just hours before the operation. Her family agreed on the operation.
“The patient is in an excellent state and the transplant looks normal,” the hospitals said in a brief statement after waiting three days to announce the pioneering surgery.
The woman had been left without a nose and lips after the dog attacked her last May, and was unable to talk or chew properly. Such injuries are “extremely difficult, if not impossible” to repair using normal surgical techniques, the statement said.
The statement did not say what the woman would look like when she had fully recovered, but medical experts said she was unlikely to resemble the woman who had been the source of her new face.
The operation was led by Jean-Michel Dubernard, a specialist from a hospital in Lyon who has also carried out hand transplants,
Skin transplants have long been used to treat burns and other injuries, but operations around the mouth and nose have been considered very difficult because of the area's high sensitivity to foreign tissue.
Teams in France, the United States and Britain had been developing techniques to make face transplants a reality
There was a short-term risk for the patient if blood vessels became blocked, a medium-term danger of her body rejecting the new skin and a long-term possibility that the drugs used could cause cancers.
Experts say that although such medical advances should be celebrated, the transplant had thrown up moral（道德的）and ethical(伦理的)issues. Little is known about the psychological effect of the transplant.
59. The best title for the passage would be ________.
A. French Woman has First Partial Face Transplant
B. First Face Transplant Opens Debate
C. Risks and Ethical Problems of a Face Transplant
D. A Complete Face Transplant of a French Woman
60. Why did the woman need such an operation?
A. Her face had been bitten by a dog
B. Her face had been burnt in a fire.
C. She was born especially ugly
D. She wanted to test such an operation.
61. The underlined word "resemble" means ________.
A. to remember forever
B. to recognize immediately
C. to set as an example
D. to present similarity or likeness to
62. What can we learn about the operation?
A. The woman had used the dead woman' s whole face.
B. There has arisen a debate about the operation.
C. The woman will suffer from psychological damage soon.
D. Such transplants have been performed by doctors.
C
As parents we like to make sure that our children are eating well and getting all the nutrients（营养）they need. Children need two to three kinds of vegetables every day.
A simple way to get our children to eat vegetables is by eating them ourselves. Following our example, they may start eating vegetables themselves. Don’t say things like, “If you eat your vegetables, you can have dessert. ” These methods work for a little while but can possibly lead them
to hate vegetables more. Give your children new varieties of foods which will help them develop a taste for trying new things.
Sometimes the simple things just don’t work. We have to start becoming a little creative to make our children eat vegetables. By doing this in the beginning when children are small, we will help them learn to love vegetables.
Think of creative ways to make children eat vegetables. For example, cut up vegetables like carrots, cucumbers and place them in a creative way on a plate for an afternoon snack. Or try using cheese sauce either by dipping the vegetables in it or by putting the cheese right on top of cooked or raw vegetables.
If you prefer, you can also add a teaspoon of sugar on top of cooked green beans and peas to make them taste a little sweeter. Doing this shouldn’t lead to a sweet tooth as long as you only give them a small amount.
If you have children that refuse to eat vegetables, some of these suggestions I’ve listed will help to turn that around. In the end, you’re not only just getting them to eat vegetables, you’re also helping them to live a healthier lifestyle.
63. According to the passage, all the following ways to get children to eat vegetables are creative EXCEPT _____.
A. preparing carrots in an attractive way
B. adding some cheese sauce to vegetables
C. putting cheese on top of vegetables
D. making vegetables much sweeter
64. If you want your children to develop the habit of eating vegetables, you should _____.
A. set an example to them
B. be very patient to them
C. give dessert to them as an award
D. cut vegetables into different types to meet their tastes
65. The best title for the passage would probably be “_____”.
A. Vegetables are very important for children’s health
B. How to make children eat more vegetables
C. More and more children like eating vegetables
D. There are many kinds of vegetables for children
第二节信息匹配题
阅读下面的短文，然后从A-F选项中，为每一小段选择合适的标题, 并把答案写在答案卷上。

66. _____________
Listening is not as easy as someone thought. Even good listeners may recall only fifty percent of what they hear. Retention, the ability to remember and recall information, decreases about twenty to twenty-five percent after a few days. So no matter how well you listen in class, you’re always going to have to refresh your memory before a test! Unfortunately, many people have poor listening habits, and little listening training. To improve your listening skills, it’s important to understand what causes poor listening.
67. ___________
If you find it difficult to concentrate solely on what a speaker is saying, there’s a good reason. The mind processes information much faster than a speaker can speak. The brain can process over 500 words per minute, while the average speaker talks at a rate of 124 to 250 words per minute. That means the mind can hear what’s being said and can think about something else at the same time.
68. ____________
If you have a negative idea about the speaker or the topic, you’ll find it difficult to listen attentively. Hostile or captive audiences often have more difficultly listening than do favorable or voluntary ones.
69. ____________
If a speaker speaks “above the heads” of an audience, people find it difficult to concentrate. Speakers who use unfamiliar words or who use incomplete explanations make it more difficult to
listen. Speakers who “speak down” to audiences, failing to acknowledge what the audience already knows, also create mental blocks.
70. ___________
When people listen selectively, they simply block out what they don’t want to hear. For instance, many people have habits that are dangerous to their health, like smoking. However, they often choose to block out what a speaker says about health risks. They may listen to a speech and think that the speaker’s message applies to other people, not them. In other words, they hear what they want to hear and ignore what they don’t want to hear.

One possible version：
Travelling is a good activity. When you are free, you can go to a beautiful place to enjoy the
beauty of nature and other cities. You can breathe the fresh air, meet different people and make
friends with them. Thus you will relax and restore.
But travelling is not always pleasant. For example, the weather can be changeable. You may be caught in the rain and may catch a cold while travelling. You may have your money stolen or may be injured.
Therefore, when going on a trip, you must prepare yourself carefully. You should have clear information about the weather, choose a good travelling companion and be very careful about where you go so as to avoid accidents. If so, you will surely enjoy yourself.。
