第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）
A
In a traditional Chinese family, women are expected to do the housekeeping and leave the “other business” to men. However, the appearance of the full-time “househusband” is changing traditional family.
A survey in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen shows that
22 percent, 73 percent, 34 percent and 32 percent of white-collar male workers, aged between 28 and 33, would be prepared to do the housekeeping if the conditions were right.
Yang Wenhui, 32 years old, worked at the office of a company prefer to quit(离开) the job. “My job was dull and steady. I was not promoted(提拔). My wife, in contrast, really likes her job. So, after our baby was born, I chose to stay at home and take care of the family while my wife works full-time outside the home,” said Yang.
Sociologists have found the full-time househusband emerges in three main situations.
Firstly, if the wife is ambitious(有雄心的), well-paid and has good job prospects, while her husband is paid poorly and has no job prospects, it makes economic sense for the woman to become the main income earner for the household. Secondly, if the wife is tired of household chores and eager to work outside the home, her husband may forfeit his job. Thirdly, if the husband can do his work at home, he may take this choice as it allows him more time to take care of the family.
Influenced by traditional ideas, some families with full-time househusbands prefer others not to know about their arrangement, concerned people would laugh at a husband with “no prospects” or wife who is “too strong”.
Zhou Wei said he has become usual to being a full-time househusband although his relatives doubted this when they gathered during the holidays. “A happy life is the most important thing, not other peoples’ opinions,” added Zhou.
56. The reason for Yang Wenhui quitting his job is that ________.
A. it is too difficult for him to do it
B. it is too boring for him to do it
C. he is too old to go on doing it
D. his wife wanted him to quit it
57. In which situation is a man unlikely to become a full-time househusband?
A. He can earn enough money to keep family and has a good job
prospects.
B. He can earn much less than his wife and will never get promoted.
C. His wife hates housework and is busy with her work outside.
D. His job can be done at home and he would like stay at home.
58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. A full-time househusband is a man without prospects in life.
B. A full-time househusband is much weaker than his wife.
C. A full-time househusband is willing to share his experience with his relatives.
D. A full-time househusband can also enjoy happiness from housework.
59. The underlined word “forfeit” probably means ________.
A. appreciate
B. quit
C. continue
D. escape
B
Goals can help you do，be and experience everything you want in life．Instead of just letting life happen to you，goals allow you to make your life happen．
Successful and happy people have an idea of how their life should be and they set lots of goals to help them succeed．By setting goals you are taking control of your life．It’ s like having a map to show you where you want to go．Think of it this way．There are two drivers．One has a destination in mind which is laid out for her on a map．She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns．The other driver has no goal or destination or map．She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver，but she drives without an aim around，never getting anywhere，just using up gas and oil．Which driver do you want to be？
Winners in life set goals and follow through on them．Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals．Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident．Goals aren’t difficult to set―and they aren’t difficult to reach．It’s up to you to find
out what your goals and ideals（理想）really are．
Research tells us that when we write a goal down，we are more likely to achieve．Written goals can be reviewed regularly，and have more power．Like a contract with yourself，they are harder to neglect（忽视）or forget．Also when you write your goals in a particular way，you are able to make yourself be continuously alert（警觉）to situations that will further your goals．
60．The writer gave the example of two drivers to show__________．A．how stupid the first driver was
B．the importance of having a map and right direction
C．how stupid the second driver was
D．the importance of setting goals
61．According to the passage，successful people are different from unsuccessful ones because _________．
A．the successful people set goals for everything and can get help from others
B．the unsuccessful people always set unrealistic plans for themselves C．the successful people set goals in their lives and make plans to carry it out
D．the unsuccessful people make plans for everything but can not work hard
62．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？
A．Goals can make you gain everything you want in life.
B．Only successful people can be happy.
C．If you want to succeed，you need to set long-term goals instead of short-term Goals.
D．When we put our goal down on papers，we are more likely to succeed.
63．Which is the best title for the passage?
A．Goals help you succeed B．How to succeed
C．Why we always fail D．A research on setting goals
C
Jim suffered heart problems. In conversation he expressed little joy and it seemed that his life was drawing to a close.
When his heart problems led to operation, Jim went through it successfully, and a full recovery was expected. Within days, however, his heart was not beating properly. Jim was rushed back to operation, but nothing was found to explain the cause of his illness. He died on the operating table on the day before his 48th birthday.
Dr. Bruce Smoller, a psychologist, had had many conversations with him, and the more he learned, the stranger he realized Jim's case was.
When Jim was a child, his father, a teacher, suffered a heart attack and stayed home to recover. One morning Jim asked his father to look over his homework, promising to come home from school at noon to pick it up. His father agreed, but when Jim returned his father had died. Jim's father was 48.
"I think all his life Jim believed he killed his father," Dr. Smoller says. "He felt that if he had not asked him to look at his homework, his father would have lived. Jim had been troubled by the idea. The operation was the trial （判决）he had expected for forty years. “Smoll er believes that Jim willed himself not to live to the age of 48.
Jim's case shows the powerful role that attitude plays in physical health, and that childhood experiences produce far-reaching effect on the health of grown-ups. Although most cases are less direct than Jim's, studies show that childhood events, besides genes, may well cause such midlife diseases as cancer, heart disease and mental illness.
64．Jim was sent back to operation because ________.
A．his heart didn't work well B．he expected a full recovery
C．his life was drawing to a close D．the first one wasn't well performed
65．What made Dr. Smoller feel strange about Jim's case?
A．Jim died at a young age.
B．Jim died on the operating table.
C．Both Jim and his father died of the same disease.
D．Jim's death is closely connected with his father's.
66．From Smoller's words, we can infer that ________.
A．Jim's father cared little about his study
B．Smoller agreed that Jim did kill his father
C．Jim thought he would be punished some day
D．Smoller believed Jim wouldn't live to the age of 48
67. Which of the following could have strong effect on one's physical health according to the text?
a. One's genes.
b. One's life in childhood.
c. One's physical education.
d. The date of one's birthday.
e. The opinions one has about something.
A．a, b, d B．a, b, e C．a, c, e D．b, c, d
D
If You Make a Mistake, Don’t Worry!
Yeah, you may want to forget about them, but mistakes can be useful. Making a mistake doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world. In your real life you have to grow and mature, and you will experience some growing
pains.
You know you should have studied hard but you went out with some friends instead. You know you should have put the money into the bank for a rainy day instead of spending it on all kinds of things you didn’t need.
Most people experience growing pains and make mistakes when they are growing up. If you make mistakes, face them and learn from them. All of the famous people you wish to copy have made mistakes. They’ll continue to make mistakes for all their successes.
One of the major differences between people like them and the majority of others is that they don’t let their mistakes stop them. Instead, they use their mistakes as learning tools.
At the very least, when you make a mistake, you’ll know what not to do. And you can help others by warning them of the mistakes you’ve made. Don’t let mistakes stop you from doing anything. Learn from them, and don’t hide. Fac e up to your mistakes now and later you will mature.
What mistakes are you making now? Take a look at anything you might be doing wrong. Take a step back and evaluate（评估）your situation, and then correct your mistakes. Then move forward.
Always remember your mistakes to remind yourself of what not to do for the future.
68. Why does the writer say mistakes can be useful?
A. Because you can get to the end of the world.
B. Because famous people also make mistakes.
C. Because you can mature by facing and learning from mistakes.
D. Because you spend money on something you don’t need.
69. When you make mistakes next time, what should you do?
A. Try to face the mistakes.
B. Let mistakes stop you from doing anything.
C. Forget the mistakes you make.
D. Expect others to make the same mistakes.
70. What can you learn from the passage?
A. Before you make any mistake, you had better hide in your room.
B. Remember your mistake and don’t make the same mistake again.
C. Don’t go out with some of your friends any more.
D. Forget your mistakes.

第二节：任务型阅读（每空一词，满分10分）：
Is there a "success personality"—some winning combination of qualities that leads almost inevitably(必然地) to achievement? If so, exactly what is that secret success formula(公式), and can anyone develop it?
At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success, inquiring into the attitudes of 1500 distinguished people selected at random（任意地）from Who's Who in America. Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers. Here is one of the most important, that is common sense.
Common sense is the most widely possessed quality of the people surveyed. 79 percent award themselves a top score in this quality. And 61 percent say that common sense is very important in contributing to their success.
To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this, one has to remove extra ideas and get right to the key points of what matters. A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way: "The key ability for success is simplifying. In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important."
Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it? The oil man's answer is that common sense can definitely be developed. He owes his to learning how to debate in school. Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their—and your own—mistakes.
Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success: knowing your field, self-reliance, intelligence, the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck. But common sense stands out. If you develop these qualities, you'll succeed. And you might even find yourself listed in Who's Who someday.
Topic: Secrets to Success
Finding of the (81)________ Top achievers have some common (82)______, one of which is common sense.
The most important quality 79 percent of the people surveyed (83)______ highly of common sense. And 61 percent say it plays an important role in their success.
Understanding of common sense To most, it means one is able to(84) ________ daily affairs reasonably by (85)________ on what really counts.
(86)________ to get common sense ●(87)________ it through activities like learning how to debate in school.
●Increasing it through (88)________ by observing others.
Other factors leading to success (89)_______ from common sense, many other factors contribute to success, luck (90)_______. But common sense is the most outstanding.

Is daily homework necessary？
Recently our school students have had a discussion about whether it is necessary to have daily homework. Different students have different opinions.
Seventy percent of the students are willing to accept daily homework．They think homework
helps them review and practice what has been taught in class．Besides，by doing daily homework,
students can better understand their lessons．Furthermore，their skills in managing time can also be improved through homework．
However, thirty percent of the students have different opinions. They believe homework reduces their amount of leisure time with their families，not to mention the time for other activities．With a lot of homework to do，students feel tired，and will gradually lose interest in their lessons.
In my opinion, daily homework is necessary, but it must be fit for a student’s ability．Also，the amount of homework should be limited，for a student’s all-around development is more important than anything else in his or her life. (153 words)
