卷Ⅱ（30分钟，50分)
第三节：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分,满分40分)
A
Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough，someone was looking right at you！
Parapsychologists （灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “sixth sense” really exists，Robert Baker，a psychologist （心理学家）at the University of Kentucky，did two experiments.
In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects（受试者)were eating，drinking, reading，studying，watching TV，or working at a computer。

Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects，almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment，Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren't. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when
they're being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments，said Baker，“I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves。

”
31. The aim of the two experiments is to ________。

A. explain when people can have a sixth sense
B。

show how people act while being watched in the lab
C. study whether humans can sense when they are stared at
D。

prove why humans have a sixth sense
32。

The underlined word “outcome”in the last paragraph most probably means ________.
A. value
B. result
C. performance D。

connection
33。

In the second experiment, the subjects _________.
A。

could tell when they were stared at and when they weren’t.
B. could tell when they were stared at but couldn’t tell when they weren't.
C。

couldn't tell when they were stared at but could tell when they weren’t。

D。

couldn’t tell when they were stared at or when they weren’t.
34. What can be learned from the passage？
A. People are born with a sixth sense。

B. The experiments support parapsychologists'idea。

C。

The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.
D. People have a sixth sense in all places.
B
By 2050
Futurologists（未来学家）predict that life will probably be very different in 2050.
TV channels（频道）will have disappeared。

Instead，people will choose a program from a “menu" and a computer will send the program directly to the television. Today, we can use the World Wide Web to read newspaper stories and see pictures on a computer thousands of kilometers away。

By 2050，music, films，programs, newspapers, and books will come to us by computer.
Cars will run on new，clean fuels and they will go very fast。

Cars will have computers to control the speed and there won’t be any accidents。

Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination。

Space planes will take people halfway around the world in 2 hours. Today，the United States Space Shuttle can go into space and land on Earth again。

By 2050, space planes will fly all over the world and people will fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just 2 hours。

Robots will have replaced people in factories。

Many factories already use robots。

Big computers prefer robots—they don’t ask for pay rises or go on strike, and they work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will see robots everywhere—in factories, schools, offices，hospitals, shops and homes.
Medical technology will have conquered many diseases。

Today, there are devices(设备）that connect directly to the brain to help people hear. By 2050, we will be able to help blind and deaf people to see and hear again.
Scientist will have discovered how to control genes(基因）。

Scientists have already produced clones（克隆）of animals。

By 2050，scientists will be able to produce clones of people，and decide how they look，how they behave and how clever they are. Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they？
35。

A year ago，August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan。

His wife，Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria，but it was hard for Dave to find work，and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift—＄7，000，a legacy（遗产) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch，who died in an accident。

“It really made a difference when we were meeting difficulty 。

”says Dave.
But the Fusses weren’t the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpected legacy from the Hatches。

Dozens of other families were touched by what the Hatches had done. In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars; in others, it was more than ＄100，000.
It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money, more than $3 million—they were an elderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm.
Children of the Great Depression，Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving。

They preferred comparison shopping and would go from store to store, checking prices before making a new purchase。

Through the years，the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camps when their parents couldn’t afford it. “Ish and Arlene never asked if you needed anything，”says their friend Sandy Van Weelden，“They could see things they could do to make you happier, and they would do them.”
Even more extraordinary was that the Hatches gave away their farmland。

It was the Hatches’wish that their legacy—a legacy of
学必求其心得，业必贵于专精
kindness as much as one of dollars and cents-should enrich the whole community and last for generations to come。

Neighbors helping neighbors—that was Ish and Arlene Hatch’s story。

39. According to the text, the Fusses __________。

A. were employed by a truck company
B. led a difficult life
C。

worked in a school cafeteria D. lost their home
40. What can we learn about the Hatches？
A. They had their children during the Great Depression。

B. They left the old house to live on their family farm。

C。

They gave away their possessions(财产）to their neighbors。

D。

They helped their neighbors to find jobs.
41. Why would the Hatches go from store to store？
A. They decided to open a store。

B。

They wanted to save money.
C. They couldn’t afford expensive things.
D. They wanted to buy gifts for local kids.
42。

What Sandy Van Weelden said mainly tells us that the Hatches were __________.
A. understanding
B. kind
C. childlike
D. wealthy
D
All the wisdom of the ages and all the stories that have delighted mankind for centuries are easily and cheaply available to all of us within the covers of books，but we must know how to get the most from this treasure。

The most unfortunate people in the world are those who have never discovered how satisfying it is to read good books。

I am most interested in people and in finding out about them。

Some of the most outstanding people I’ve met existed only in a writer’s imagination, then on the pages of his books，and then, again，in my imagination. I’ve found in books new friends, new society, and new world.
Reading is the pleasure of the mind，which means that it is a little like a sport：your eagerness and knowledge and quickness make you a good reader。

Reading is fun, not because the writer is telling you something, but because it makes your mind work. Your own imagination works along with the author’s or even goes beyond his. Your experience，compared with his，brings you to the same or different conclusions，and your ideas develop as you understand his.
Every book stands by itself，like a one—family house, but books in a library are like houses in a city。

Although they are separate, together they all add up to something. They are connected with each other and with
学必求其心得，业必贵于专精
other cities. The same ideas, or related ones, turn up in different places；the human problems that repeat themselves in life repeat themselves in literature，but with different solutions according to different writings at different times. Books influence each other；they link the past，the present and future and have their own generations，like families。

Wherever you start reading，you connect yourself with one of the families of ideas，and in the long run，you not only find out about the world and the people in it; you find out about yourself, too。

Reading can only be fun if you expect it to be。

If you concentrate on books somebody tells you “you ought to" read，you probably won't have fun。

But if you put down a book you don’t like and try another till you find one that means something to you，and then relax with it，you will almost certainly have a good time—and if you become, as a result of reading，better, wiser, or kinder, you won’t have suffered during the process。

43。

What kind of people are the most unfortunate in the writer’s eyes？
A。

Those who only know how to get the most from his books。

B. Those who exist only in a writer’s imagination。

C. Those who don’t know the delight reading brings them.
D。

Those who differ from the writer in conclusions.
44. The writer thinks reading is fun, because reading __________.
A。

can make us a good reader B. makes our mind work
C. can save our time D。

makes us relaxed
45。

The underlines phrase “turn up”in Paragraph 4 means “__________”。

A. have great fun
B. find C。

face another way D。

appear
46。

What would be the best title for the text?
A。

The Pleasure of Reading B. The Ways of Reading
C. The Imagination of Reading
D. The Results of Reading
E
Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life。

Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their
environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes。

A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver。

This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.
One study shows that babies can learn before they are born。

The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant（怀孕的）woman. Then，they played a recording of a short story. On the day the baby was born，the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother。

They did this by placing a device in the mouth of the newborn baby。

The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way。

If the baby moved his mouth the other way，he would hear a different story。

The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.
Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children.
Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years。

The researchers attempted to measure the sensitivity of the mothers。

The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children’s activities and did not interfere unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also，the researchers observed the women for signs of
depression。

The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression。

The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear。

These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence development of their children. Children did better when their mothers were caring，even when they suffered from depression.
47According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor that influences intelligence development in babies？
A。

The environment。

B。

Mother's sensitivity.
C. Their peers(同龄人）D。

Education before birth.
48.What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories？
A。

To prove that babies can learn before they are born.
B。

To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are born。

C。

To show mothers can strongly influence intelligence development in their babies。

D。

To indicate early education has a deep effect on the babies’ language skills。

49。

Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills？
A。

The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their children.
B。

The children of women who did not suffer from depression。

C. The children of depressed but caring mothers。

D. Children with high communication abilities。

50。

What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Scientific findings about how babies develop before birth。

B. Scientific findings about how the environment has an effect on babies’ intelligence.
C. A study shows babies are not able to learn things until they are five or six months old。

D. Scientific findings about how intelligence develops in babies。

In many countries the standard of living enjoyed by their people has been increased rapidly in recent years. Sadly, not everyone in these countries is so fortunate and many people in rich countries are homeless.
The reasons for homelessness are various, but poverty is undoubtedly one of the main causes. The homeless people may have become jobless and then been unable to pay their rent and so no longer have a roof over their heads. Often，the fact that unemployed people get help from the
government prevents this from happening, but not always。

Some homeless people are mentally ill and have no one to look after them。

Some are young people who，for one reason or another, have left home and have nowhere to live. Many of them have had a serious disagreement with their parents and have left home，choosing to go to a city and live on the streets. Sometimes they have taken such action because they have been unable to get on with a step—parent。

Many homeless people get into the habit of begging to get enough money to stay alive，but many of the general public refuse to give anything to beggars。

Often they are moved on by the police，being accused，whether rightly or wrongly，of forceful begging。

There are many who disrespect homeless people。

Some cynics（愤世嫉俗的人）declare that homeless people choose to live the life which they lead. But who would willingly choose to live in a shop doorway，under a bridge or in a cardboard box?
Homeless People
