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,并标在题卡上将该项涂黑．
A
I was born an albino(白化病人) in Pennsylvania in 1945。

No one in my family had ever known what an albino was and what it meant to be albino.
My family and friends treated me like everybody else. That was just about the best thing they could have done. It helped me trust myself，so when troubles came along，I could deal with them。

Like most albinos，I had terrible eyesight, but the fact that I could hardly see didn't trouble me that much。

Kids would tease me，calling me “Whitey”. People stared at me when I held reading material right at the tip(尖) of my nose so that I could
see it well enough. Even when I was eight，movie-theater clerks started asking me to pay full price because I “looked older.”
The worst part for me was that because my eyesight was so bad, I couldn’t play sports very well. I didn't give up trying, though。

I shot hoops(篮球框）every day。

And I studied harder。

Eventually，I got better at school and loved it. By the time I got to college，I was double majoring(专业), going to summer school and busying myself with every activity I could find。

I had learned to be proud of being an albino。

I did my best to make “albino" a positive word. And I decided to make my living with my eyes—and in sports.
I couldn’t see very well to play sports，but with a solid education and a drive to do it, I could make a living involved in the area I loved。

I’ve done it now for over thirty years in print and in video，and now in cyberspace（网络空间）。

People make jokes about how I’m the only “blind editor" they know，but the jokes are affectionate. Some of them are the signs of respect.
I was just a（an）proud albino kid from the coal country of Pennsylvania。

I now realize that being born an albino helped me to overcome difficulties，gain confidence and be proud of my personal achievement.
21。

According to the author, _____ helped him a lot in dealing with troubles.
A。

the special care from his family and friends B. the sympathy
from the pupils
C。

the equal way his family and friends treated him D. his education in school
22. All the following are the signs of being an albino for the author EXCEPT _____
A. abnormally white skin
B. poor eyesight
C. an older appearance
D. being unable to play sports
23。

The author's good education and strong motivation made him successful as a(an)_____
A。

sports editor B. Disc Jockey(DJ）C。

printer D. IT engineer
24. we can infer from the passage that ______
A. the author’s poor eyesight made him very upset
B。

the author finally did well in playing sports after years of practice C。

many people laugh at the author because he attempts to do more than he can
D. the author holds an optimistic attitude towards his illness。

B
Sit down，close your eyes and relax。

Think about your childhood and the memories you created。

What was your favorite childhood memory and what was your favorite as a child？Or what your favorite Christmas present or your favorite candy bar when growing up？Answers may come easily for some people but for others,it may take more
time to think about。

Mary Jo McCarthy of Pequot Lakes wants to help others document their childhood memories which could be treasured by current families and for generations to come。

McCarthy，64，a short story author and retired columnist(专栏作家）for the Lake Country Echo weekly newspaper, began hosting a writing seminar(研讨班）titled“A Time to Remember”。

The classes are limited to 12 people and are conducted in the nursery at Lutheran Church of the Cross in Nisswa and the registration fee is $25。

McCarthy said what led her to start the writing seminars was writing others’ biographies. A retired busin essman asked her to write his biography as a ghost writer. She said others from her church in Pequot Lakes had also asked her to write their biographies because they didn’t know how to write them. She thought hosting a class to help people write their own biographies would be more beneficial to them。

McCarthy said people had busy lifestyles those days and didn’t have a chance to sit down and write down their memories that they might forget and never remember. She said writing down the memories would documen t the person’s life，other family members，and especially，future generations would be able to read about them。

25. In paragraph l the author raises some questions to________
A. introduce the topic of the text
B. express his/her puzzle about memories
C. give some examples for readers about biographies
D。

provide background details for readers about the retired columnist
26. What can we learn about McCarthy?
A. She was strict with her students
B. She didn't take charge of seminars
C。

She got support from the local government D. She once worked as a columnist in a newspaper．
27。

It can be inferred from the passage that__________．
A. writing biographies is an easy job
B. a biography is part of family history
C. McCarthy had her own biographies published
D. fewer and fewer people feel interested in biographies
28. The passage is mainly intended to________.
A。

show how to write biographies B。

help people communicate with their families
C。

call on people to write their own biographies D。

introduce McCarthy and her writing seminars
C
One night recently, I was driving down a two-lane highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car approached from the opposite direction at about the same speed. As we passed each other, I caught the other driver's eye for only a second. I wondered whether he might be thinking as I was。

How dependent we were on each other at that moment。

I was relying on him not to fall asleep, not to be put off by a phone conversation, not to
cross over into my lane and bring my life to a sudden end。

Though we had never spoken a word to each other，he relied on me in just the same way。

Multiplied a million times over，I believe that is the way the world works。

At some level，we all depend on one another。

Sometimes that dependence requires us simply not to do something like crossing over the double yellow line。

And sometimes it requires us to act cooperatively，with friends or even with strangers。

As technology shrinks our world，the need increases for cooperative action among nations。

In 2003, doctors in five nations were quickly organized to identify the SARS virus, which saved thousands of lives。

The threat of international terrorism has shown itself to be a similar problem, one requiring team action by police and intelligence forces across the world. We must recognize that our fates are not ours alone to control。

In my own life, I've put great stock in personal responsibility。

But，as time has passed，I’ve also come to believe that there are moments when one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of others. So，while each of us faces the case of driving alone down a dark road，what we must learn is that the approaching light may not be a threat，but a shared moment of trust.
29。

Why did the author say they depended on each other in the same way？
A. Because the approaching car was very dangerous
B. Because they both drove their car at a terrific speed
C。

Because he might be killed out of the other’s careless driving
D. Because it was dark and the road was not wide enough
30。

The author considers it very important_____________
A. to drive with a company B。

to have personal independence
C。

to gain certain responsibility D. to share trust and cooperation 31. From the second paragraph we know the author drew the important lesson from_______
A。

only one experience B. many similar experiences
C。

a driver on a dark road D. many friends and strangers
32。

What do the underlined words“put great stock in”in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A。

to have little trust in B. to feel good about
C。

to lose faith in D. to have belief in
D
Research shows Dad, not Mum, is the big risk factor for childhood obesity。

A recent study has found having an overweight father quadruples (四倍）a child's chance of being overweight，ever if they have a mother of normal weight。

Interestingly, the opposite scenario（情景) doesn't have the same result。

So if the mother is overweight but the father is of normal weight the child's risk of being overweight is not significantly raised.
The research was undertaken by researchers at the University Of
Newcastle who examined more than 3，000 two—parent families over a four-year period。

Researchers measured the children’s change of weight from about four to five years of age to when they were eight or nine。

Dr. Emily Freeman,a researcher in the University of Newcastle Family Action Center, says，“While it is early days in terms of this type of research，the results of the study are very exciting。

It is really important that we’ve found the link between Dads and th eir children, because lots of researchers tend to focus on mothers and children.” She adds. “We have had lots of stories of Dads refusing to eat vegetables，and then the kids don’t eat them either。

”
She says further research is needed to understand the underlying reasons for the link。

So what can fathers do to become better role models for their kids? “They should definitely be more aware of the different behaviors they are modeling to their kids；they need to demonstrate they are eating fruit and vegetables and get outside more，" says Freeman, who has been involved with Healthy Dads，Healthy Kids, an education program in the Hunter Valley in NSW, and has seen these actions bring encouraging results。

33. A recent research has found that___________
A. mother is the biggest risk factor for childhood obesity
B。

a fat dad has 400% probability of making a child overweight
C. parents have the same opportunity of making a child overweight
D. childhood obesity is the result of not getting enough exercise
34。

What is Dr. Freeman’s attitude towards the result of the research?
A. Surprised
B. Doubtful
C. Worried
D. Thrilled
35. This research is very believable and significant because it___________
A. concentrated on different groups of people
B. showed mothers’ influence on their children
C. made an interview with all the Families
D. found the hidden reasons of obesity
