第三部分阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A
In the United States, it is important to be on time, or punctual, for an appointment, a class, a meeting, etc. However, this may not be true in all countries. An American professor discovered the difference while teaching a class in a Brazilian（巴西的）university. The two-hour class was scheduled to begin at
10 A.M. and end at 12. On the first day, when the professor arrived on time, no one was in the classroom. Many students came after 10:30 A.M. Two students came after 11 A.M. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologized(道歉)for their lateness．Were these students being rude? He decided to study the student s’ behavior.
The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both an informal and a formal situation：at a lunch with a friend and in a university class, respectively．He gave them an example and asked them how they would react. If they had a lunch appointment with a friend，the average American student defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time，On the other hand．the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes．
In an American university, students are expected to arrive at the appointed hour．In contrast, in Brazil，neither the teacher nor the students always arrive at the appointed hour．Classes not only begin at the scheduled time in
the United States，but also end at the scheduled time．In the Brazilian class, only a few students left the class at 12：00；many remained past 12：30 to discuss the class and ask more questions．While arriving late may not be very important in Brazil , neither is staying late．
56. The underlined word ‘punctual’ most probab ly means________.
A．1eaving soon after class
B．coming early
C．arriving a few minutes late
D．being on time
57. Why did the professor study the Brazilian students’ behavior?
A．He felt puzzled at the students’ being late．
B．He felt angry at the students' rudeness．
C．He wanted to make the students come on time later．
D．He wanted to collect data for one of his studies．
58. It can be inferred from the professor’s study of lateness in the informal situation that____．
A．American students will become impatient if their friend is five minutes late
B．neither Brazilian nor American students like being late in social gatherings
C．being late in one culture may not be considered so in another culture
D．Brazilian students will not come thirty-three minutes after the agreed time
59. From the last paragraph we know that in Brazil____.
A. it is important to arrive at the appointed time
B．it is rude to keep the professor staying after class
C．it is normal for students to leave during lectures
D．it is acceptable for professors to be late for class．
60. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. It is important to be on time for class in the United States．
B. The importance of being on time differs among cultures．
C. People learn the importance of time only from their own culture．
D．Students being late for class should explain the reason to their teacher．
B
Some kids start to drink alcohol(酒精) at a young age. They think it is part of becoming an adult. They also think drinking is not that bad because so many people do it. They feel it is not as bad as taking drugs. It is easy for
kids to get liquor(酒精饮料)by using fake identification(伪造证件).
Parents may start to notice a change in their child’s behavior if the child starts dri nking. Kids who drink sometimes stop doing things they normally liked to do.
They may keep telephone calls and meetings a secret and not want anybody to touch their things. They act moody(喜怒无常) and do not have the same eating and sleeping habits.
Parents need to stay involved in their kids’ lives. They should talk to their children about their problems to be aware of any change.
Parents can be the best protection. Children who get a lot of love can feel good about themselves. It helps them resist(抵抗) doing bad things even when other kids are doing them. Parents can help set a good example by not drinking and driving. They can have firm rules in the home that everyone follows.
Give the children good ideas on how to say “no” to drinking , even when they are a t a party. Try not to overreact or panic if the child tries alcohol. How you handle it can affect their attitude. It may be helpful to talk to other parents about setting up curfews(宵禁令)and rules about parties or other events.
61. Which of the following is NOT the reason why some kids have an early start
of drinking?
A. They want to show their maturity (成熟) by drinking alcohol.
B. Drinking alcohol is much cooler than taking drugs.
C. They are affected by many other people around them.
D. They can get liquor easily.
62. According to the passage, what changes may happen to the kids who
start drinking?
A. Nothing serious will happen to them.
B. They keep the same eating and sleeping habits.
C. They can control their moods quite well.
D. Sometimes they act secretly.
63. According to the writer, if parents find their children try alcohol, they had
better ________.

64. Which is the main subject discussed in the passage?

65. From the last sentence of the first paragraph, we can see_______.
A. if you are not an adult, you can’t buy liquor according to the law
B. the children can buy liquor without using fake identification.

D. using fake identification is allowed.
C
When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，”Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault.” or “I know I’m late，but it’s not my fault；the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success. Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on the person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.
66. According to the passage, winners .
A. deal with problems rather than blame others
B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C. have responsible and able colleagues
D. blame themselves rather that others
67. The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .
A. avoid
B. accept
C. improve
D. consider
68. When your colleague brings about a problem, you should .
A. blame him for his lack of responsibility
B. find a better way to handle the problem
C. tell him to find the cause of the problem
D. ask a more able colleague for help
69. When problems occur, winners take them as .
A. excuses for their failures
B. barriers to greater power
C. challenges to their colleagues
D. chances for self-development
70. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. A Winner’s Problem.
B. A Winner’s Secret.
C. A Winner’s Opportunity.
D. A Winner’s Achievement.

A survey done in this summer suggests the college students in Shenyang spend most of their money on the opposite sex. The survey, done by Li Xinfang, a student mental health center at Shenyang Normal University, shows almost half of all college students’ daily spending goes on their girlfriends or boyfriends. The rest is spent
on their lodgings（住宿）, 30 percent, hairdressing （美发）and clothes, 5 percent, and study fees, 3 percent. This means money spent on their partner comes first, while money spent on study comes last. The surveyors interviewed 1,000 college students in Shenyang, Liaoning Province.
“This result is surprising. We never knew that they spent so much on their partners rather than on their studies,” said Zou Rulian, director of the center. “It is their own business as they are all over 18 years old, but the point is that they live on their parents, not themselves.”
According to the survey, 69 percent of students spent over 10,000 yuan (US$1,250) a year, a figure that included tuition fees and daily expenditure（花费）.
Statistics from the Shenyang Statistics Bureau show last year the average monthly salary in Shenyang was 1,366 yuan (US$171), 134 yuan (US$17) less than the national average.
“One college student spends more than half the annual income（收入）of the average family in Shenyang. But students do not spend on study, they spend on something else,” added Zou.
Wang Dan, at the local Dongbei University, spends around 1,000 yuan(US$120) every month, with over half going on dating. He receives 700 yuan (US$86) from his family each month. In addition, Wang has part-time jobs, like tutoring（辅导）a high school student, to bring in extra income. “It is my duty to buy my girlfriend food, clothes and other things. I’d like to do more part-time work to afford this,” he said.
1.What is the best title for this passage? (please answer within 10 words)

2.Find a phrase in the passage which has the similar meaning of the word “besides”.

3.How much was Shenyang’s average monthly salary in 2005? (please answer within 6 words)

Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is “Early Money”. I’m going to tell you something about money used in the early days. To be honest, we know little about how early people came to use money, but we do know some things which have been used as money. In early times, in some European countries, salt was used as money. In some parts of Asia, tea was used for money. The American Indians used nuts and other things. Perhaps the most common money of all was animal of some kind. In some places today, cows are still used as a kind of money. So you see, things highly valued by everybody may serve as money.
The Chinese were the first people to use coins as money. Oh, sorry, you don’t know the w ord? Well, it is spelled C-O-I-N. Here are some coins of the past. You can come over and have a look.

书面表达（One possible version）
Dear editor,
The other day we had a heated discussion about whether middle school students should enter a net bar to
60% of the students think it should be forbidden. For one thing, surfing online or playing computer games is a waste of time. And it costs a lot of money to go to a net bar. For another, some students go to class during the day and surf online until deep into the night. As a result, they always feel sleepy in class. Besides, the content of some websites is harmful.
On the other hand, about 40% believe that the net is good thing. On the net we can get some information useful in our study. The net can broaden our horizon, and through the Internet we can make many new friends. It can also help us to improve our skill in operating the computer.
As far as I am concerned, we should control ourselves while surfing online.
Such is our discussion about the question.。
