第二局部：阅读理解〔一共(yīgòng)20小题，每一小题2.5分，满分是50分〕
阅读以下短文，从每一小题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中，选出最正确选项。

A
In today's world, we rely on computers as never before．They are used for everything from ordering a pizza to running hospitals and military defense systems．Banking and credit card information is stored and accessed by computers．So what happens when a computer gets infected with a virus? One effect is that people's access to
their e-mail accounts is cut off．A more serious possible consequence is that billions of dollars could be lost．
A virus is a computer program that copies itself onto other programs and infects them． Similar to an easily spread disease, a computer virus goes from computer to computer, either adding to or changing the tasks a program is designed to do．
The first computer viruses were created in the mid '80s and had varying effects．Some caused files to be deleted, or made the letters on the screen appear to fall off．Others displayed a specific message once the computer was turned on．
Viruses today are much more widespread and dangerous than ever before．Perhaps the most damaging to date has been the "I Love You" virus．"I Love You" appeared in May 2000 and has possibly been the most destructive virus in terms of monetary loss．
The virus is released when an attachment to a fake e-mail message is opened．By changing the names of files on computers, "I Love You" makes them difficult to access．It also searches for important personal information, including passwords, which it sends to a web site for others to see．
It is estimated that more than 45 million people in 20 countries have had their computers infected by the "I Love You" virus．Some say
the cost of repair and lost business has been more than US$10 billion．
If you own a computer, it is important to keep it in good health by installing an anti-virus program．If updated frequently, it will protect your e-mail access-not to mention your wallet．
36．What does "virus" mean in the article?
A．An easily spread disease．
B．A contagious 〔传染(chuánrǎn)的〕 computer program．
C．An extremely small organism 〔生物〕 which causes disease． D．A parasite 〔寄生虫〕 in computer．
37．How does "I Love You" virus spread?
A．It is spread when an e-mail account is opened．
B．It is spread through on-line chatting．
C．It is spread through e-mail．
D．It spreads from web site to web site．
38．Which of the following is one of the damages brought by "I Love You" virus?
A．It deletes files． B．It automatically turns on computers．
C．It automatically turns off computers． D．It makes it difficult to access flies．
39．Which of the following is the best way to guard against virus?
A．To load an up-to-date anti-virus program into our computer
B．Not to use an e-mail account,
C．To upgrade our computer．
D．Not to use the Internet．
40．What is the purpose of the article?
A．To warn us against virus．
B．To remind us the importance of being healthy．
C．To stress the importance of computer．
D．To alert us to economic loss．
B
The house was quiet at 5 a．m．and Tim's mother was asleep．Only the sound of the freezer broke the quiet．He'd dreamt of the cave
last night．The purring of the freezer had been the sea．
Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his
schoolbag．It was too early for breakfast．He'd eat after he'd been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea．He wished he had a proper pack．His schoolbag would have to do．What else? Sandwiches-but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she'd want to know why he had to go out early．He settled for some biscuits and left a note stuck to the table, saying 'Gone to Michael's．Back tonight, Tim．"
The sky was soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn't up．Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street．The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet．
The sand hills still breathed heat from yesterday's sun, though the top of the sand was cool．He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves．
The light changed suddenly．The first rays of sunlight stretched across the sea．The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world．
Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back．The beach was still empty． The sun sailed higher in the sky．He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light．The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it．He had to force himself to go closer．Why was it so much more mysterious now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble．He needn't go in all the way．．．
41．What did Tim do at the beginning of the story?
A．He left home quietly．
B．He had breakfast at home．
C．He left a note on the freezer．
D．He put a sweater in his schoolbag．

B．liked biscuits better than sandwiches
C．took some biscuits at last
D．could only find some biscuits in the kitchen．
43．What made it possible for Tim to see the entry to the cave?
A．The height of the first rocks．
B．The ups and downs of the waves．
C．The change in the position of the sun．
D．The vast stretch of the sunlit beach．
44．Which of the following statements is true according to the story ?

Americans often say that there are only two things a person can be sure of: death and taxes．Many people feel that the United States has the worst taxes in the world．
Taxes are the money that people pay to support their government．There are generally three levels of government in the United States: federal, state, and city; therefore, there are three types of taxes．
Salaried people who can earn more than four to five thousand dollars per year must pay a certain part．It depends on their salaries．The federal government has a two-level income tax: that is, 15 or 28 percent．$17,850 is the cut off．The tax rate is 15 percent below $17,850 and 28 percent above．
The second tax is for the state government: New York, California, or any of the other forty-eight states．Some states have an income tax similar to that of the federal government．Of course, the percentage for the state tax is lower．Other states have a sales tax, which is a percentage charged to any item which people buy in the state．Some states use income tax and sales tax to raise their revenues〔=annual income〕．
The third tax is for the city．This tax comes in two forms: property tax〔people who own a home have to pay taxes on it and excise tax 〔物品(wùpǐn)税〕 , which is collected on vehicles in a city．The cities use this money for education, police, public works, etc．
Since Americans pay such high taxes, they often feel that they are working one day each week just to pay their taxes．People always complain about taxes．They often say that the government misuses
their tax dollars．They all believe that taxes are too high in this country．
46．In the United States, taxes are collected to provide revenues for_ __．
A．the federal government B．the state government
C．the city government D．the three levels of government
47．How much money does an American earning $40,000 per year pay to the federal government as income tax according to the passage?
A．28% of his income B．15% of his income
C．$17,870 D．$5,000
48．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Different levels of the governments have different types of taxes in the United States．
B．A11 the states have a sales tax which use it to support poor people.
C．The tax of the states is the same with the federal government．
D．All the states use both taxes to raise their income every
year to build schools.
49．What tax does an American have to pay to the city if he owns
a car?
A．Property tax． B．Excise tax． C．Income
tax． D．Sales tax．
50．After reading the passage, we might feel that Americans seem
to be_ __．
A．satisfied with their taxes B．proud of their taxes C．unhappy about their taxes D．very angry at their
taxes
D
My father was a foreman of a sugar-cane plantation in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico．My first job was to drive the oxen that ploughed the
cane fields．I would walk behind an ox, guiding him with a
broomstick．For $ 1 a day, I worked eight hours straight, with no food breaks．
It was very tedious work, but it prepared me for life and taught me many lasting lessons．Because the plantation owners were always watching us, I had to be on time every day and work as hard as I could．I've never been late for any job since．I also learned about being respectful and faithful to the people you work for．More important, I earned my pay; it never entered my mind to say I was sick just because I didn't want to work．
I was only six years old, but I was doing a man's job．Our family needed every dollar we could make because my father never earned more than $ 18 a week．Our home was a three-room wood shack with a dirty floor and no toilet．Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters．This gave me self-esteem〔自尊心〕, one of the most important things a person can have．
When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our house．My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed, so the golfers could find them．Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never missed one．Some nights I would lie in bed and dreamt of making thousands of dollars by playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle．
The more I dreamed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb(番石榴树枝(shù zhī)) and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And
finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth. I practiced with the same devotion and intensity. I learned working in the field except now I was driving golf balls with club, not oxen with a broomstick.
51．The writer's first job was __ __.
A．to stand down the fairway at a golf course
B．to watch over the sugar-cane plantation
C．to drive the oxen that ploughed the cane fields
D．to spot the balls as they landed so the golfers could find them
52．The word "tedious" in Paragraph 2 most probably means __ ___.
A．difficult B. boring C. interesting D. unusual
53．The writer learned that__ __from his first job.
A．he should work for those who he liked most
B．he should work longer than what he was expected
C．he should never fail to say hello to his owner
D．he should be respectful and faithful to the people he worked for
54．__ __ gave the writer serf-esteem.
A．Having a family of eight people
B．Owning his own golf course
C．Bringing money back home to help the family
D．Helping his father with the work on the plantation
55．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．He wanted to be a successful golfer.
B．He wanted to run a golf course near his house.
C．He was satisfied with the job he got on a plantation.
D．He wanted to make money by guiding oxen with a broomstick.

We have two daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four．Last Sunday evening, we invited some people home for dinner．I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join Mommy in answering the door when the bell rang．
Mommy would introduce them to the guests, and they would take the guests' coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom．
The guests arrived．I introduced my two daughters to each of them．The adults were nice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids．
Each of the guests made a particular fuss 〔关爱(ɡuān ài)〕 over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smile．They said she was a great girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age．
I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big "to do" over the younger one because she's the one who seemly more easily hurt．We do it with the best of intentions．
But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child．I was a little worried that Kristen would feel she was being outshined 〔逊色，相形见绌〕．I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes．I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying．
I said, "What are you doing, my dear?"
`She turned to me with a sad expression and said, "Mommy, why don't people like me the way they like my sister? Is it because I'm not pretty? Is that why they don't say nice things about me as much?"
I tried to explain to her, kissing and hugging her to make her feel better．
Now, whenever I visit a friend's home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first．
56．What were Kristen and Kelly asked to do last Sunday evening? 〔No more than 20 words．〕
57．Why did the guests praise Kelly so much rather than Kristen? 〔No more than 15 words．〕
