第三局部：阅读理解(共20小题；每一小题2分，总分为40分)
阅读如下短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最优选项。

A
The past three decades have seen great progress in our knowledge of dealing with travel dangers.But our attention is easily drawn to the new, the fascinating and the challenging, and there has not been much effort to solve the_old_problem and change the way people behave in the sun.
We understand the harmful effects of strong sunlight.As
with cigarettes and lung cancer, there's no need for more
research to tell us what we should do.Nor is much research being
carried out.Of the hundreds of papers presented at an
international conference on travel illnesses, there was only a single paper on the sun.
Last month, a five­month­old baby almost died from sunburn — suffering burns to 40 percent of its skin surface while sleeping on the beach.
Sunburn is only one of the problems caused by strong sunlight and research results are shocking.In men, the death rate for malignant melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, has more than doubled in the past 30 years —from 1.5 per 100,000 population to 3.1 per 100,000, according to Cancer Research UK.It is no coincidence (巧合)that the same 30­year period has seen a rise in traveling.In older age groups, the death rate is much higher.Meanwhile, the number of new cases of melanoma has grown fivefold.More women are being diagnosed with melanoma but more men are dying from it — men are less likely to seek treatment in time.Other more treatable skin cancers are also on the rise, with an estimated 100,000 cases every year.
The underlying reason comes down to this: most pale­sk inned people have a strong belief, deeply rooted in our culture, that they look better with browner skin.They will risk cancer and pain to support their goal, and medical education seems to make little difference.
语篇解读：很多人都知道太阳光线可能造成的伤害，但并没有改变行为方式来减少这一伤害。

51．The underlined part “the old problem〞 in the first paragraph refers to________.
A．difficulties in traveling
B．the harm that strong sunlight can do
C．the challenges during the travel
D．the death rate of skin cancer
解析：选B。

推理判断题。

根据第二段的We understand the harmful effects of strong sunlight.可知答案。

52．According to the 4th paragraph, the death rate for skin cancer has increased probably because________.
A．the air is more polluted than before
B．skin cancer can't be treated
C．people are under greater pressure
D．more and more people are traveling
解析：选D。

推理判断题。

根据第四段的It is no coincidence that the same 30­year
period has seen a rise in traveling.可知答案。

53．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．The death rate for skin cancer among old people is lower.
B．More babies are dying from skin cancer.
C．Women are more likely to get treatment in time.
D．Fewer women get skin cancer now.
解析：选C。

细节理解题。

根据第四段的More women are being diagnosed with melanoma but more men are dying from it — men are less likely to seek treatment in time.可知男人不太寻求与时治疗，相比之下，女人如此更可能寻求这方面的治疗，由此可知答案。

54．We can learn from the last paragraph that________.
A．pale­skinned people are usually ill
B．nobody will risk cancer to look better
C．our culture doesn't believe browner skin looks better
D．medical education will not change people's desire for browner skin
解析：选D。

细节理解题。

根据最后一段的They will risk cancer and pain to support their goal, and medical education seems to make little difference.可知答案。

B
Held in each August Bank Holiday since 1966, the Notting Hill Carnival is the largest festival celebration of its kind in Europe.Every year the streets of West London come alive, with the sounds and smells of Europe's biggest street festival.Twenty miles of colourful costumes surround over 40 sound systems, hundreds of Caribbean food stalls (摊位), over 40,000 volunteers and over 1 million Notting Hill carnival revelers (狂欢者)．
Starting its life as a local festival set up by the West Indian community of the Notting Hill area, it has now become a real Caribbean carnival, attracting millions of visitors from all over the globe.With many astonishing floats (彩车) and the sounds of the traditional steel drum bands, scores of sound systems plus the hundreds of stalls that line the streets of Notting Hill, the Notting Hill Carnival is arguably London's most exciting annual event.
The Notting Hill Carnival used to get under way on the Saturday with the steel band competition.Sunday is Kids' Day, when the costume prizes are awarded.On Bank Holiday Monday, the main parade takes place.It generally begins on Great Western Road, then winds its way along Chepstow Road, on to Westbourne Grove, and then Ladbroke Grove.In the evening, the floats leave the streets, and people continue
to have fun at the many Notting­Hill­Carnival­after parties.
The Notting Hill Carnival dates for 2010 were August 29th and 30th.The proposed dates for Notting Hill Carnival 2011 are August 28th and 29th.
If you are looking to have a stall at the Notting Hill Carnival, you will need to apply for a trading licence.Find out more on our links page.

Seeing a volcano erupt is a wonderful experience, and you can really feel the beat by climbing to the summit (山顶) of Pacaya for a close­up view.There are guided tours every day up this highly active volcano from Antigua, giving travelers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most powerful.
Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua, a beautiful city with many colorful houses along its old streets that are turned into art­works during its Holy Week festival.No matter when you come to Antigu a, you won't miss the Pacaya­tour companies.
But climbing Pacaya is no easy job: it is 2,560 metres high, and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly one­step­forward and two­step­back movements.As you climb, you hear the dull sounds of eruptions high above.Steaming hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you near the active summit — the McKenney Cone (火山锥)．Just as though you were going to walk over to the edge of the cone, the road turns to the left and up to the relative safety of the old, inactive summit.
Many tours are timed so that you arrive at the cone of the volcano in plenty of time for sunset and the full contrast between the erupting red lava and the darkening sky.On a good day the view from the summit is extremely exciting.The active mouth boils, sending red lava over its sides, and once in a while shoots hot streams up to 100 metres into the air.There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone.As evening turns deeper into the night, the burning lava quietly falls down to a side of the volcano.For you, too, it is time to get down.
59．What is the main purpose of this passage?
A．To attract tourists to Pacaya.
B．To describe the beauty of Pacaya.
C．To introduce guided tours to Pacaya.
D．To explain the power of nature at Pacaya.

D
I'm a fifth­genera tion journalist.When I was a baby, my family moved from France to Switzerland to London, where my father ran the photo business for U．P.I (United Press International)．
I remember the day John F．Kennedy was murdered, when I was 12.It was a huge event globally.My father took me to his office, where everyone was in shock.It was then that I decided to become a journalist.
I graduated from a French high school in London, in 1968.Then I got a part­time job as a photo journalist with U．P.I.My parents had moved to Brazil, and in 1970 I visited them and decided to stay.I dropped out of college and got a job as a sports editor for the local English­language newspaper.
Six months later I became editor in chief, at age 20.A military group was in power at that time, so I often received a telephone call in the morning and was informed what topics we couldn't publish.It was a very exciting time for me.But I learned all the details of putting a newspaper to bed each day.
In 1973, I started a weekly section about computers called DataNews.And later I joined I．D.G (International Data Group) as vice president for Latin America, and we established a network of magazines in the region.
I spent the next 10 years building I．D.G.'s businesses there.I moved to the
United States in 1986 to become president of InfoWorld, an I．D.G. magazine.In 1989, Bill Ziff, owner of Ziff Davis, hired me as publisher of PC Magazine.After that I was president and then C．E.O.of Ziff st June, I became C．E.O.of TheHuffingtonPost.
My career has taught me that you have to go through life with your eyes wide open and be curious.If you do this, you'll find incredible opportunities.Just jump on them and achieve your dream.

E
I was giving the class when her giggling (格格笑) drew my attention. Walking over to the young troublemaker, I asked for the note in her hands.
It was a hand­drawn picture of me, teeth blackened, nostrils (鼻孔) upwards, and the words “I'm stupid〞 coming out of my mouth. I managed to fold up the picture calmly and continue the class. My mind, however, was working angrily. I knew the two most likely suspects for drawing the picture. Maybe it was high time that I taught them a lesson!
Somehow, in the very moment of real hurt and anger, I asked myself very softly, “How can I ever bring good out of this？〞
When there were about six minutes left of the class, I showed the kids the picture. The whole class was silent. I told them there must be a reason behind such a picture and that now was their chance to tell me the reason. Then I let them write silently while I stood sadly in the back of the classroom.
Most of them either blamed the artist or felt sorry. But two notes, from the girls I figured were behind the picture, had a list of issues. I was too mean and too strict. Reading those notes, I realized that where I thought I was driving them to success I was actually driving them away. I had some apologizing to do.[ When the kids walked into my classroom the next day, one boy and one girl each handed me a card. The one signed by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke. The one from the girls asked for forgiveness. I was extremely surprised. And more than a little shameful. I had my little speech all ready to give to the kids, but they did it before me.
