AI was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought.I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”At tha t time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone!” And she swept it into the wastebasket.I stood watching her, speechless. What on earth...?She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room-- if you do anything to upset my husband , out you go!”The n she turned to me, kissed me, an d said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood（情绪）had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her antics helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him calmly.21. Why did the author shout at the telephone?A. He was mad at the telephone.B. He was angry with his agent.C. He was anxious about his wife.D. He was impatient with the secretary.22. What made the author laugh?A. His own behavior.B. His wife’s suggestion.C. His changeable feelings.D. His wife’s sweet kiss.23. What does the underlined word “antics” refer to?A. Smart words.B. Unusual actions.C. Surprising looks.D. Anxious feelings.BSomething in chocolate could be used to stop coughs and lead to more effective medicines, say UK researchers.Their study found that theobromine, found in cocoa, was nearly a third more effective in stopping coughs than codeine, which was considered the best cough medicine at present.The Imperial College London researchers who published their results online said the disc overy could lead to more effective cough treatment. “While coughing is not necessarily harmful, it can have a major effect on the quality of life, and this discovery could be a huge step forward in treating this problem,” said Professor Peter Barnes.Ten healthy volunteers were given theobromine, codeine or placebo, a pill that contains no medicine, during the experiment. Neither the volunteers nor the researchers knew who received which pill. The researchers then measured levels of capsaicin, which is used in research to cause coughing and as a sign of how well the medicine is stopping coughs.The team found that, when the volunteers were given theobromine, the capsaic in needed to produce a cough was around a third higher than in the placebo group. When they were given codeine they need only slightly higher levels of capsaicin to cause a cough compared with the placebo.The researchers said that theobromine worked by keeping down a nerve activity (神经活动), which causes coughing. They also found that unlike some standard cough treatments, theobromine caused no side effects such as sleepiness.24. According to Professor Barnes, theobromine ______.A. cannot be as effective as codeineB. can be harmful to people’s healthC. cannot be separated from chocolateD. can be a more effective cure for coughs25. We learn from the text that volunteers in the experiment _______.A. were patients with bad coughsB. were divided into three groupsC. received standard treatmentsD. suffered little side effects26. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Codeine: A New MedicineB. Chocolate May Cure CoughsC. Cough Treatment: A Hard CaseD. Theobromine Can Cause CoughsCWe were on the way from Hutchinson to Chicago for a short spring break. For many years I had wanted to take my family on the train. We all had been to Chicago four years ago, and the kids loved it. Chicago is one of my favorite cities, too, so the thought struck me again last fall to ride the train to Chicago. Of course, flying wou ld have been faster. But I don’t think flying is easier, especially these days, with all the security and waiting in lines at airports.Though we were tired in the middle of the night, the kids got on the train with the exhilaration of this adventure. “We’re moving,” my son William shouted happily with big e yes as the train began to pull away from the Hutchinson station.I removed my shoes and lay down to try to finish my night’s sleep. The sleeper car would have better enabled that, but the ordinary train seats were not too bad. An airline flight is a harder experience for me: not enough room, two hours of pain with my knees almost touching my mouth. On the train I could almost outstretch all of my 6-foot-2-plus body in the generous legroom.The journe y didn’t feel at all as long as it was. We all found the train ride a joy. The car ride would have felt every minute of 13 hours. But on the train you are free to walk around, sit in the observation carriage for a while and enjoy the scenery out the windows, have a nice meal in the dining car, read a book, or play a board game.In short, the train is all about enjoying the trip, which isn’t somethingI do so much when traveling by airline or by car, when the trip seems more ofa mission (任务) to get there than an experience to enjoy along the way.Chicago offers much to do for a family. This time, getting there was half the fun.27. We can learn from the first paragraph that _____.A. the kids love the train journeyB. it was the first time that the kids were taken on the trainC. the author didn’t enjoy the long train journeyD. Chicago is one of the kid’s favorite cities28. What does the underlined word “exhilaration” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Tiredness.B. Relaxation.C.Excitement. D. Worry.29. In the third paragraph, an airline flight experience is mentio ned to show _____.A. a train ride is more comfortableB. a train ride is too longC. an airline flight is miserableD. an airline flight is easier30. Which of the following words best describes the whole family’s feeling about the train journey?A. Moved.B. N ervous.C. Disappointed.D. Delighted.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
