Ⅲ阅读（共两节，满分40 分）
第一节：阅读理解（共15 小题，每题 2 分，满分 30分）
阅读以下短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、 B、 C 和 D）中选出最正确选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
Happy birthday! Do birthdays really m ake people happy? Of course they do. Birthdays
celebrate the day we were born. Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggests
another year of growth and maturity（成熟） ---or so we hope.Weall like to imagine that we ’re getting wiser and not just older. Most of us enjoy seeing the miracle
of growth in others, as well. For instance, seeing our children develop and learn
new things makes us feel proud.For Americans,like people in most cultures,growing up is a wonderful process. But growing old? That’ s a different story.
Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented American culture. Most Americans like to look young,act young and feel young. As the old saying goes,“ You’ re as young as you feel.” Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old. People in some countries value the aged as a
source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor those that are young, or at least“ young at heart” .
Many older Americans find the“golden years ” to be anything but golden. Economically,“ senior citizens” often struggle just to get by.Retirement at age 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income. Social security benefits usually
cannot make up the difference.Older people may suffer from poor nutrition,medical care and housing.Someeven experience age discrimination（歧视） . In 1987,A merican sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets.
She was often treated rudely---even cheated and robbed.However,dressed as a young person, she received much more respect.
Unfortunately,the elderly population in America is increasing fast.Why? People are living together.Fewer babies are being born.And middle-aged“ baby borners ”are rapidly entering the groups of the elderly. America may soon be a place where
wrinkles（皱纹） are“ in ” . Marketing experts are already noticing this group of consumers.
41. We can infer from the second paragraph that.
A. young people lack experience and wisdom
B. American older people often joke about their old age
C. American culture is very young
D. different countries have different opinions on the old age
42. The main idea of the third paragraph is.
A.the golden years can make the old earn lots of money and receive good medical care
B. the old people in America are leading a hard life without good nutrition,
medical care or housing
C. the old in America have to retire at the age of 65
D. American social security benefits are not good
43.From the last paragraph we know that the underlined word “ in ” can be replaced by.
A. serious
B. bad
C. disappearing slowly
D.growing fast
44.What should be mentioned in the following paragraph?
A.The public will change their attitude towards old people.
B.People will provide more services to the old in their communities
C.The government will pass laws to ensure the benefits of the old
panies will soon produce more goods for old Americans
45. From this passage we can know.
A. in America, growing up is as wonderful a process as growing old
B. in America, growing up is a wonderful process, while growing old is not
C. in America, growing old is a wonderful process, while growing up is not
D. in America, growing up is not a wonderful process

Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past. There are
not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day. Most people read only the sports pages, the advice or the gossip columns, the comics, and perhaps the
classified advertisements.Most people don’ t take the time to read the real news. They attempt to catch the reader’ s interest with pictures and exciting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see
when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the
reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for
a good first page story and headline to make them stop and look. If the headline
is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will go on
to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all, then
they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people
do not want the news from a newspaper anymore. They say they get the news on the
television now.
More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than
reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper?Do you think it is easier to get the news from television?Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?
51. According to the passage, newspaper are.
A. more popular today
B. less popular today

Doctors say anger can be an extremely harmful emotion,unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that angry feelings can lead to heart disease, stomach
problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time.Some people express anger openly in a calm,reasonable way. Others burst with anger, losing control of themselves. But still other people control their anger. They cannot or will not
express it.
Recently some doctors have found that people who express anger too often and
violently become, in fact, more and not less angry. This can cause medical problems. Some doctors say that both controlling and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger strongly may be more likely to develop heart
disease, and they believe that those who deep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger,
then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say,
“Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and
you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”

第二节 : 任务型写作范文
Doctors say anger can lead to serious diseases like heart disease, stomach
problems,headaches,emotional problems and even cancer. Both controlling anger and express anger strongly can be harmful to your health.
As we know, getting angry not only does harm to one’s health but also has a
bad effect on the relationship between people. Sometimes expressing anger too
strongly can lead to severe results. However, in many cases, anger may be avoided
if we can understand each other better.For instance,someone may have done something about which you are very angry, but in fact he/she meant no harm. So it is quite
unnecessary for you to get angry.If someone does do some wrong, try to put yourself in his/her position and understand him/her. If you find it really necessary to
express to anger,try to do it in a calm,reasonable way. Rememberlosing your temper does good to neither you nor the other person.。
