第一节：阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各小题的四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答疑卡上将该项涂黑。

A
Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results showed that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class. Contrary to what many people believe, if you don’t eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining some weight instead of losing some. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals．
21．During the test, those who were tested were given ____．
A．no breakfast at all B．a very rich breakfast
C．little food for breakfast D．different breakfasts or none
22． The results of the test showed that ____．
A．breakfast has a great effect on work and study
B．breakfast has little to do with a person’s work
C．a person w ill work better if he has a simple breakfast
D．those working with brains should have a lot for breakfast
23．The passage infers that many people believe that if you don’t eat breakfast, you will ____．
A．lose weight B．not lose or gain weight
C．be healthier D．gain a lot of weight
24． Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．Poor breakfasts affect those who work with their brains．
B．Having no breakfast may cause one to get fatter．
C．Having a big lunch and supper is of great value in weight-losing．
D．Eating less for lunch and supper may help to lose weight．
B
Life is difficult．
It is great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult．
Most do not fully see this truth. Instead, they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or upon their familie s, their class, or even their nation．
What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness, loneliness or regret or anger and fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy．
Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious tests that tell us success from failure． When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve．It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn．As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt instruct．” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems．25．From the passage, it can be inferred that___．
A．everybody has problems
B．we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of life
C．life is difficult because our problems bring us pain
D．people like to complain about their problems
26． The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to __．A．save space B．persuade readers
C．makes readers laugh D．get readers’ at tention
27． The main idea of Paragraph 3 is that __．
A．most people feel life is easy
B．the writer feels life is easy
C．the writer likes to complain about his problems
D．most people complain about how hard their lives are
28． According to the passage, we give schoolchildren difficult problems to solve in order to __．
A．encourage them to learn
B．teach them to fear the pain of solving the problem
C．helps them learn to deal with pain
D．teach them how to solve problems
C
In old times, man considered lightning to be one of the greatest mysteries of nature. In fact, a single flash of lightning 1．6 km long has enough electricity to light one million lamps．
The American scientist, Benjamin Franklin, was the first to suggest that lightning is in fact electricity formed between the Earth and clouds high above．It happened in 1752．In the same year, he also built the first lightning rod to protect buildings from being struck by lightnin g．
Modern science has discovered that lightning is very long and powerful. A lightning
between a cloud and the Earth may be as long as 13 km, and travels at a speed of 30 million meters per second．Scientists have the opinion that there are about 2 billion flashes of lightning per year. In the United States alone, it kills almost one person per day．The safest place to be in during an electrical storm is a closed car. Outside, one should go close to low ground for cover and not stop under a tree．Also one should stay out of water and away from metal fences．Inside a house, people should keep away from open doorways and windows and not touch wires or metal things．
29．In the USA, ___．
A．every person can see lightning every day
B．at least one person is killed by lightning every day
C．there are about 6 million flashes of lightning per year
D．about one person per day dies from lightning
30．During a lightning storm, it would be best if you ___．
A．stand under a tree B．go outside
C．stay in a closed car D．stop near windows
31． A lightning rod can ___．
A．prevent accidents caused by lightning B．stop lightning
C．protect building from being washed away D．delay the coming of lightning
D
Looking back on my childhood, I get to believe that naturalists are born and not made．Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon threw away their pressed flowers and insects． Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages． I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic．
Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the unclear memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and, above all, the insects．
I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm（热情） has led me into varied investigations（调查）. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while r eading about other people’s observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind．Suddenly you wonder you see the answer to the riddle（迷）, because it all seems to fit together．This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honour with the title of scientific research．
But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self-discipline but hard training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds．
32．The first paragraph tells us that the author ___．
A．was born to a naturalist’s family B．lost his hearing when he was a child C．didn’t like his brothers and sisters D．was interested in flowers and insects
33．The author can’t remember his relati ves clearly because ____．
A．he didn’t live long with them B．he was fully busy observing nature
C．the family was too large to remember D．he was too young when he lived with them 34． It can be inferred from the passage that the author was ____
A．a naturalist but not a scientist B．more a good observer than a listener C．no more than a born naturalist D．a scientist as well as a naturalist 35．The author says he’s a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thi nks
he ___．
A．lacks s ome of the qualities required of a scientist
B．he couldn’t do mental arithmetic
C．he was brought up in a family of farmers
D．he was not knowledgeable enough
