“so do+主语”这种结构中的主语与上文中的主语是不同的。

词序倒装，助动词do位于主语之前；so的意义相当于in the same way,有“同样”“也那样”的含义。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876,he could never have predicted what it would be able to do in the future.Now,130 years late, it’s no surprise when someone takes out a cellphone to make a call while on the move.
But phones are no longer just used to make calls. Japan’s 90 million cellphone owners also use their machine’s modern technology and tiny screens(hal f the size of business card)to play video games, send e-mails, read news, download music, store photos and surf the Internet. Since April,2006,they’ve been able to use their cellphones to watch TV.
Following several months of test broadcasts, digital(数码的)TV broadcasts for cellphones with special receivers began in Japan’s major cities. The special cellphones are hard to find because only a small number were put on sale. The excitement surrounding mobile TV means that the limited number of handsets(耳机)quickly sold out.
Misogo Kado, a 37-year-old software designer from Yokohama, near Tokyo, bought one of the new cellphones earlier this month.
He is a big fan of the new technology. “You know how every cellphone now comes with a digital camera? In the same way, this is going to become a standard feature,” Kado said of the TV service. “It’s not something you have to pay for.If you’re buying a cellphone, you might as well get one with it.” While the service is new for Japan, it is not the world’s first. South Kore a and Britain have made TV available to their cellphone customers with the use of slightly different technology. The new service in Japan, however, is free.
Not only that, it uses broadcasting airwaves(电视频道)instead of an Internet connection. The images are sent through the air by TV towers, on satellites. This terrestrial(陆地的)digital broadcast system means that more people will be able to use the service. Imagine what our phones will be able to do in another 130 year’s time!
36．How much does the new service of a mobile phone to watch TV in Japan cost?
A. Half as much as the mobile phone costs.
B. As much as the mobile phone costs.
C. Slightly more than the mobile phone costs.
D. It doesn’t cost any money.
答案：D细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。

原文第五段末句“The new service in Japan, however, is free.”体现答案。

37．In which country can people still not watch TV on a mobile phone?
A. Japan.
B. Britain.
C. America.
D. South Korea.
答案：C细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。

原文第五段中“While the service is new for Japan, it is not the world’s first.South Korea and Britain have made TV available to their cellphone customers with the use of slightly different technology.”体现答案。

38．What does the word “it” refer to in the sixth paragraph?
A. The new service in Japan.
B. Japan.
C. Internet connection.
D. A mobile phone.
答案：A语境词义判断题，可用推断法来解。

认真阅读分析该词所在句及前一句内容可知，这两句均介绍了日本和韩国、英国在手机看电视新功能上的区别，可见it应指代日本手机看电视这一新功能The new service in Japan.
39．Through what are the TV images of a mobile in Britain sent?
A. Air.
B. Satellites.
C. Broadcasting airwaves.
D. The text doesn’t tell us.
答案：B推理判断题，可用逻辑推断法来解。

由原文第六段中“The images are sent through the air by TV towers, not satellites.”可知，这是日本可看电视新款手机与英国可看电视新款手机的区别，可见英国可看电视新款手机是通过卫星传送图像的。

40．What is the best title of the text?
A. TV Goes Mobile
B. Mobile will Be More Popular
C. Mobile Is on TV
D. Mobile Goes TV
答案：A标题判断题，可用标题判断三原则来解。

认真阅读分析原文不难发现，本文自始至终介绍日本推出可以看电视的手机新品种，因此以TV Goes Mobile为题既具有高度的概括性、强烈的针对性，又因言简意赅、新颖时尚而具有一定的醒目性。

B
Girls think more quickly than boys
New research, attempting to throw light upon how male and female brains differ has found that timing is everything. American V anderbilt University researchers Stephen Camarata and Richard Woodcook discovered that females have a significant advantage over males in timed tests and tasks. The study involved more than 8000 males and females ranging in age from 2 to 90 from across the US.
“We found hardly any differences in overall（全面的）intelligence. But we discovered that females performed better than men in time limited situations,” Camarate said. “It is v ery important for teachers to understand it in males and females when it comes to assigning work and test. Many males can do a better job without strict time limits,” added Camarate.
“Consider that many classroom activities, including testing, are directly or indirectly related to processing speed,” the researchers wrote in their report. “The higher performance in females may contribute to a classroom culture that favour females, not because of teacher bias(偏见)but because of inherent(与生俱来的)differences in gender(性别)processing speeds.”
The researchers found that males scored lower than females in all age groups in tests measuring processing speed. However, the study also found that males consistently(一贯地)outperformed females in some language abilities, such as identifying objects and knowing antonyms(反义词)and synonyms(同义词).The research contradicts（与……矛盾）the popular belief that girls develop all communication skills earlier than boys.
The researchers found no significant overall intelligence differences between males and females in any age groups.
“We believe there are fundamental(本质的)differences in how male and female brains end up getting organized,” Camarata said. “Our next studies will give us some insight(洞察力)into where these processing differences are occurr ing.”
41．What is the purpose of the new research?
A. To explain how male and female brains differ.
B. To explain male is cleverer than female.
C. To explain female is cleverer than male.
D. To help boys and girls work hand in hand.
答案：A推理判断题，可用逻辑推断法来解。

由原文首句可以推出这个新研究是为了解释男女的智力是如何有区别的。

42．What does the second “it” refer to in the second paragraph?
A. Females performed better than men in timed tests and tasks.
B. Assigning work and tests.
C. Overall intelligence.
D. Females performed better than men.
答案：A代词指代对象判断题，可用语境推断法来解。

认真阅读分析该词所在句子可知，“females performed better than men in time limited situations”为该词的背景信息，由此不难推出正确答案。

43．The female’s better performance ability in timed tests is _________.
A. developed in the life
B. promoted by teaching
C. born
D. affected by meals
答案：C细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。

原文第三段中的inherent体现答案。

44．What is true according to the passage?
A. The males score lower than females in timed tests.
B. Males perform better than females in all language abilities.
C. Girls develop all communication skills earlier than boys.
D. There are obvious intelligence differences between males and females.
答案：A细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。

原文第四段首句表明A正确，原文第四段中“However, the study also found that males consistently(一贯地)outperformed females in some language abilities, such as identifying objects and knowing antonyms(反义词)and synonyms(同义词)”,表明B错误，原文第四段末句表明C错误，原文第五段内容表明D错误。

Fast Food
Fast food is becoming more and more popular in China, especially among children and teenagers.
There are several reasons for its popularity. First, it is very convenient and saves a lot of time. You just go into a fast food restaurants, order your food, and your food is ready in no time. Second, you can either eat it there or take it away. Third, the environment of fast restaurant is both clean and comfortable. Fourth, it has excellent service, and the quality of food is guaranteed. However, in terms of nutrition, fast food is far from satisfactory. It is usually not a balanced diet and low in nutritional value.
Fast food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and turn to it once in a while. It’s not good for people, especially children, to eat fast food as little as possible.。
