第三部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40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。

A
A young Australian woman’s trip of lifetime took an unexpected turn into the freezing Hudson River on 15 January 2009.
Perth singer Emma Cowan, 26, traveling overseas for the first time, was leaving New York after a week of sightseeing when the pilot of an Airbsu was forced to ditch into the Hudson. The plane lost power in both engines just minutes after take-off from LaGuardia Airport outside New York City. Initial reports from the Federal Aviation Authority(FAA)suggested the plane’s engines stopped after it hit at flock of birds. All passengers and crew survived the crash.
Me. Cowan emerged from a rescue raft, wet and cold, but uninjured. Afterwards, Ms. Cowan managed a brief chat to her mother Wendy at their Swan View home. She said, “Mum, can you believe I’ve survived a plane crash? I don’t really believe it had sunk in what a miracle this is.” The
young woman has lost all her luggage and travel documents, and a laptop of music backing tracks.
“But, as she said to me, it was the choice between the lifejacket and the purse,” Mrs. Cowan said. “The thought of treading water without a lifejacket would have been unbearable”.
Mrs. Cowan said her eldest daughter had carefully planned the trip for two years and intended to visit friends in North Carolina.
The holiday was not intended for work, but Emma was open to any opportunities that arose for singing in the US, Mrs. Cowan said.
“She’ll continue to have a great time while she’s over there.”
The family, staunch(忠实的)Christians, say it was the hand of God that saved their daughter. “It wasn’t her time to go.”
56. What happened to Emma Cowan on a cold January day in 2009?
A. She flew to North Carolina to visit her friends
B. She was sightseeing in New York
C. She was injured in a plane crash
D. She survived a water landing
57. Which of the following could be the cause of the plane crash?
A. The engines that exploded suddenly
B. The weather that changed quickly
C. Something that happened unexpectedly
D. Someone that reacted improperly
58. What would Emma Cowan do after the plane crash?
A. She would go back home in no time
B. She would go on with her travel plan
C. She would try to find a jog in the States
D. She would stay in New York to be compensated(赔偿)
B
Stop wasting you time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.
The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You can be a success only if you make the right choice.
You cannot be successful without first developing you self-esteem(自尊). Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over you life. People with low self-esteem do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are leaves tossed（摇摆）by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.
You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for whatever happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible.
Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we consciously choose to accept and believe.
Thoughts and beliefs cause everything. Our attitudes and actions are a result of habits existing in us over a period of time. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for
setting our expectations. Our success depends upon our level of confidence. We are responsible for either forming good habits or kicking bad habits.
If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing（培育）the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks.
In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.
59. People with low self-esteem are compared to leaves because they .
A. are ready to change their minds
B. are easily affected by windy weather
C. don’t have the power to face their fate
D. can’t exercise control over themselves
60. It can be inferred from Paragraph 5 that
A. whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes
B. developing confidence is the key to future success
C. thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind
D. setting our expectations is essential before taking action
61. The last paragraph serves as .
A. the proof of the author’s points
B. the conclusion of the argument
C. an introduction to another topic
D. a comparison between two views
62. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Success is a choice
B. The secrets of success
C. Develop our confidence
D. How to achieve success
C
Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the websites you’ve visited. Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.
If fact, it’s likely that some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cup or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen—21st century is the equal of being caught naked.
Psychologists tell us boundaries(dividing line) are healthy, and that it’s important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread pieces you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret. The key question is: Does that matter?
When opinion polls(民意测验)ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned
about losing it. a survey found an overwhelming(very large)pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is “slipping away, and that bothers me.”
But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny part of Americans change any behaviors in an effort t protect their privacy. Few people turn down a tollbooths(收费站)to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alissanfro Acquisti has a series of tests that reveal that people will give personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cent-off coupon(优惠券).
But privacy does matter—at least sometimes. It’s like health; when you have it, you don’t notice it. Only when it’s gone do you wish you’d done more to protect it.
63. What would psychologists advise on the relationship between friends?
A. Friends should open their hearts to each other.
B. Friends should always be faithful to each other
C. There should be a distance even between friends
D. There should be fewer quarrels between friends.
64. Why does the author say “we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret”?
A. Modern society has finally developed into an open society
B. People leave traces around when using modern technology
C. There are always people who are curious about other’s affairs
D. Many search engines profit by revealing people’s identities
65. What do most Americans do about privacy protection?
A. They change behaviors that might disclose their identity
B. They use various loyalty cards for business deals.
C. They rely more and more on electronic devices
D. They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.
66. According to the passage, privacy is like health because .
A. people will make every effort to keep it
B. its importance is rarely understood
C. it is something that can easily be lost
D. people don’t value it until they lose it
D
In the age of reality television, success isn’t the only way to the public eye. Failure can also create fame, just like William Hung, 21, a native of Hong Kong.
Hung recently has made an agreement with US-based entertainment firms Koch Records and Fuse Music Network. They’ll publish a record, titled “The True Idol” on April 6.
The idol is a civil engineering student at the University of California at Berkeley. He did a version of Ricky Martin’s “She Bangs” on the television show “American Idol 3”, on January 27. The Fox TV singing contest searches for pop stars among ordinary people. In the case of Hung, however, his act was so bad that the judges cut him off in mid-act.
Hung’s response? “I already did my best, so I have no regrets at all.” That’s good, because any common person would have found plenty to regret: the off-key singing, the blue Hawaiian shirt worn with pants pulled up too high, the terrible dancing and the hips jerking(摇摆)to a beat that did not belong to the song, maybe not even to this planet. It was, by all accounts, bad.
However, it was this very bad act that sold well.
Mare Juris, president of Fuse, explained it this way: “Every one of us is happily guilty of singing our favorite song at the top of our lungs with complete freedom, completely off-key and completely unworried. That’s what William did and immediately won the hearts of America.”
Whatever it is, for the moment it’s big. Three websites devoted to Hung have gone up on the Internet in the past few weeks. Versions of his performance have been remixed with hip hop and techno-music and have made it to the top 10 request list at a Chicago radio station.
So, what does Hung think of this?
“There were all these people saying things about me. A lot were saying I was very courageous and that I was great on the show, but some didn’t have much respect for me and some were kind of mean.”
Now he says he’s not so sure whether to distance himself from the glamour(魅力) or to accept it. Returning to normal hasn’t been easy.
67. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Something an idol behaves quite foolishly.
B. Hung’s performance attracted the public eye
C. How an unsuccessful person became famous
D. Success sometimes does not require hard work.
68. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 7 refer to?
A. William Hung
B. Hung’s bad act.
C. Hung’s website
D. The public’s opinion
69. Which of the following shows the correct order of what happened to Hung?
A. The entertainment firms made an agreement with Hung
B. The judges cut Hung off in mid-act in the singing contest
C. Hung became popular among Americans
D. Hung gave a terrible performance though he tried his best
E. Three websites put Hung’s funny performance on the Internet.
A. d, b,e,c,a
B. a,c,d,b,e
C.a, d,b,c,e
D. d,b,a,e,c
70. Why was Hung able to win the hearts of America?
A. His success was based on his own hard work.
B. He attracted people’s attention in the contest
C. He was good-looking though he didn’t sing well.
D. His character was completely different from other idols’

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

For several years, Americans have enjoyed teleshopping-watching TV and buying things by phone. 71 In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys, and many other things.
72 For example, the biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made $ 100 million. In France there are two teleshopping channels, and the French spend about $20 million a year to buy things through those channels.
In Germany, until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day. Then the government allowed more teleshopping. Other channels can open for telebusiness, including the largest American teleshopping company and a 24-hour teleshopping company. 73 .
Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason, but at the same time, other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. 74 Many Europeans usually worry about the quality of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them, and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.
75 They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.
A. Now teleshopping is starting in European
B. They call teleshopping “Junk on the air”
C. Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden.
D. German businesses are hoping this new teleshopping will help them sell more things
E. The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to be
different from the American companies.
F. Teleshopping is popular among people
G. German teleshopping business is controlled by American.

At first I was not quite willing to sit down and watched the 90-minute football match. Usually I just checked the results because I thought that was dull to watch a game in that players kicked a ball to each other. Therefore, my father loves football. During the World Cup in 2006, my dad stays up late just to watch his favourite sport. Seeing him strong interest in this game of 22 men run after a ball, I decided to sit down to watch the game. I found game exciting, and my dad explained for the rules. We shared our joy. Football is not too badly as long as I watch it with my did!
