第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（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，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

A
Recently a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life.
He says our relation with others often become clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you’ll know him only when you ask to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stranger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.
Since money is important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book. Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a self-made man?
Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me so much respect. I’m nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is rich.
People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In this book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society; to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the modern world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.
21. According to the first paragraph, people haven’t realized __________.
A. how important money is in their day-to-day life
B. how one spends money shows what is important to him

22. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money __________.
A. is a good way to test your friend
B. will do harm to your friend
C. will strengthen your friendship
D. is a good way to break off your friendship
23. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?
A. He doesn’t feel that he is well educated
B. He doesn’t think he is a very important person
C. He doesn’t think being rich deserves so much attention
D. He doesn’t consider himself to be very successful
24. What does the professor want to explain in his book?
A. Money is an end.
B. Money is a means.
C. Money is everything.
D. Money is unimportant.
25. Which of the following might the author disagree?

D. Happiness is not necessarily the result of wealth.
B
As we all know, it was Thomas Jefferson who wrote the Declaration of Independence (《独立宣言》). He wrote it in two weeks, and after a few changes, it was accepted by the Congress (国会). As a result, he became famous.
Born in Virginia, Thomas Jefferson, a brilliant student at school and almost talented lawyer later, was much interested in politics.
Jefferson was elected the Governor of Virginia in 1779, and he was sent to France as the representative of the American government in 1784. Sixteen years later, at the age of 57, he was elected president after Washington and Adams.
Far from a handsome man, he was tall with long arms and big hands. Jefferson, who was an amusing talker in conversation but a poor speaker, was generally good-natured.
Jefferson was regarded as a defender of freedom in America. As a president, he protected the right of free speech. Interestingly enough, in his eight years as president, Jefferson never vetoed (否决) a bill which the Congress had passed. He did a lot in organizing the new University of Virginia.
Thomas Jefferson died on July the fourth, 1826, the fiftieth anniversary of American Independence.
26. From the passage we can infer that America won its independence in _______.
A. 1786
B. 1800
C. 1842
D. 1776
27. How old was Thomas Jefferson when he became the Governor of Virgina?
A. He was 26.
B. He was in his forties.
C. He was 36.
D. We don’t know.
28. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Jefferson wan an amusing talker, but not good at speaking in public.
B. Jefferson was not an easy person to get along with.
C. Jefferson was not only very talented but also very handsome.
D. Not being politically minded, Jefferson never vetoed a bill passed by the
Congress.
29. Jefferson died when he was ________.

B. 83
C. 73
D. 92
30. Jefferson’s greatest contribution in American history should be that ________.

B. he was strongly against the slavery
C. he wrote the Declaration of Independence
D. he was for the right of free speech
C
History books tell us that the city of Rome was set up in 152 B.C. It’s a fact, however, that by 100 A.D., Rome was the centre of a big empire. It was from Syria in the east to Spain in the west, from Britain in the north to Africa in the south. All or part of 27 of today’s countries were included in the Roman Empire. All of their people were ruled by one government, that of Rome. All educated people spoke the same language, Latin. And one of the empire’s outposts was called Londinium. This unimportant town would later become London, England, and the centre of another empire.
The Roman Empire came to and end about 1,500 years ago. Yet in some ways it is still with us. Take the letters you are reading, for example, English, like many other languages, uses the Roman alphabet (字母) while also borrowing many words. The laws of many European countries are based on ancient Roman laws. Roman ruins are seen throughout Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. In some places, Roman roads and water courses are still in use. To this day, a European in North Africa is likely to be called “Roumi”-Roman. Even modern place names are often after Ancient Rome. Both Greece and Germany have the names given by the Romans rather than the names that their own people first called them.
31. The most northern part of the Roman Empire was ________.
A. Spain
B. Britain
C. Syria
D. Africa
32. The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that Roman culture is ________.
A. dead and gone
B. based completely on language
C. still part of the present
D. unimportant to history
33. In the days of the Empire, the Roman government was probably ________.
A. weak
B. divided
C. strong
D. poor
34. What happened first?
A. Londinium was an outpost.
B. The Roman Empire fell apart.
C. The city of Rome was founded.
D. London became the centre of an empire.
35. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. In Europe people still use Roman names in some places.
B. Londinium became the centre of an empire after Roman Empire fell apart.
C. We may see some remaining parts of Roman Empire in North Africa.
D. In Europe 27 countries had the same laws.
