阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。

A
I was reading these interesting stories behind a group of great logos in the world. Personally Nike is my favorite one –it’s so simple. And I liked the stories behind them, which made me forget all other things. McDonald’s, Apple, Mercedes Benz and Adidas own great logos as we ll, and they are among my favorites.
Nike
In the Greek myth, Nike is the goddess of victory and the source of inspiration for soldiers. This logo represents the wing in the famous statue of the Greek goddess. Nike’s logo was designed by Carolyn Davidson in 1971 for $ 35, and was registered as a trademark in 1995.
McDonald’s
The logo was designed in 1962 by Jim Schindler to resemble the arch shaped(拱形的) signs on the side of the company’s then walk-up hamburger stand. Later on, the two golden arches were combined
together to form the M. The McDonald’s name was added to the logo in 1968.
Apple
There are different stories behind Apple’s logo. The first logo was a reference to the religious story of Adam and Eve, in which the apple represented the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. One year later, the second logo was designed in 1977 by Steve Jobs and Ronald Wayne, and it described Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree. This logo didn’t stay long. One year later it was replaced almost immediately by gr aphic designer Rob Janoff’s “rainbow apple”, a rainbow-colored silhouette(轮廓) of an apple with a bite taken out of it. And then the rainbow-colored apple was replaced by the one-colored logo in 1998. It has not been changed so far.
Mercedes Benz
The Mercedes Benz logo, which was originally created by Gottlieb Daimler in 1909, consists of a simple description of a three-pointed star that represents its rule of the land, the sea and the air. The company was founded by Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach. Mercedes is the name of Maybach’s elder daughter, while Benz came as a result of a combination with Benz & Cie and DMG in 1926.
Adidas
The Adidas logo, which was created by the founder of the company Adi Dassler, represents mountains, pointing towards the challenges that are seen ahead and goals that can be achieved. The logo was used for the first time in 1967.
51. What does the author think of the stories of the great logos
A. They are boring.
B. They are attractive
C. They are out of date.
D. They are practical.
52. What does Nike’s logo stand for
A. The wing of the Greek goddess.
B. The source of inspiration for soldiers.
C. The statue of th e Greek goddess.
D. The goddess of victory
53. We can learn that Apple’s present l ogo is ______.
A. the religious story of Adam and Eve
B. a bitten apple with only one color
C. Newton’s sitting under an apple tree
D. the rainbow-colored bitten apple
54. ______ stands for the rule of the land, the sea and the air.
A. Nike’s logo
B. Apple’s logo
C. The Mercedes logo
D. The Adidas logo
55. Which of the following time orders describes the births of the great logos
A. Mercedes Benz –McDonald’s – Nike – Apple.
B. Nike –McDonald’s – Apple – Mercedes Benz.
C. McDonald’s – Apple – Nike – Mercedes Benz.
D. Nike – Mercedes Benz –McDonald’s – Apple.

Every country uses its own special words to show its ideas and feelings. Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such American expression is “Where is the beef ” It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s, “Where’s the beef ” was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as if everyone was using it at the time.
Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and food is more popular in America than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Ray called th em “McDonald’s”. Ray became on e of the richest businessmen at last in America.
Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company called “Wendy’s” said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald’s or anyone else. The Wendy’s company began to use the expression “Where’s the beef ” to make people know that Wendy’s hamburgers were the biggest. The Wendy’s television advertisement showed three old women
eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a bit of meat. One of the women said she wouldn’t eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef. “Where is the beef ” she shouted in a funny way. The advertisement for Wendy’s hamburger restaurants was a success.
61. ____ started McDonald’s restaurants.
A. Ray
B. McDonald
C. Wendy
D. Three old women
62. Where is the expression “Where’s the beef ” popular
A. In England
B. In China

D. In America
63. Others wanted to open hamburger restaurants because they thought _____.

B. hamburgers were easy to make
C. beef was very popular in America
D. they could make a lot of money
64. Wendy’s made the expression know n to everyone ______.
A. with many old women eating hamburgers.
B. by a television advertisement
C. while selling bread with a bit of meat in it
D. at the McDonald’s restaurants
65. We can learn from the passage that the expression “ Where’s the beef ” means ______________.
A. the beef in the hamburgers is not as big as it is said to be
B. the hamburgers are not as good as they are said to be
C. it is used when something is not as good as it is said to be
D. Wendy’s is the bigg est

Many of us are quick to blame others for how we feel: “He makes me so mad!” or “She really hurt my feelings.” But did someone really “make me angry” or are we feeling the anger in us getting kicked up in response to the way someone behaved towards us
The difference between the two is in who the responsible party is for the way we feel. If we blame others for our feelings we will eventually feel reasonable at whatever our retaliation（报复）may be, and we will explain that it was their fault, not ours.“They were driving me mad”.
When we blame others for the way we feel we have in fact given power to others for the state of our emotional wellbeing（健康）. The truth is, no one controls our feelings but us. If we are finding that people in our lives really know how to “push our buttons” then we are not doing a good enough job at protecting our “buttons.” We are the ones leaving our buttons out in the open so that other people can “push them.” Ultimately, the switch fo r our buttons is inside us – not on the outside. While there are some things in life that are clearly out of our control, like the weather or a flight that’s two hours late, how we act and respond to other people’s behavior is not among them. Our responses to others are well within our control.
If someone is “making us” so mad, for example, that we get angry, we are not doing enough to learn about what drives our anger and how to properly cope with it. my suggestion is taking time before you get angry, and putting some work into taking an inventory（清单）of the past. An inventory can show you how much of your past experiences influence your feeling reactions in the current moment.
When we finally realize that so much of our present feelings and reactions are driven from within ourselves and our own past experiences, we will be ready to make the changes in our lives that will better secure our buttons so that they are no longer left out in public for everyone to push at will.
66. What result will appear if we blame others for our emotions
A. We consider others to be correct.
B. We consider ourselves to be correct.
C. We consider we were driving ourselves mad.
D. We consider they were driving themselves mad.
67. What’s the author’s attitude towards feelings
A. We should blame others for the way we feel.
B. We should enable others to control our feelings.
C. We should let others know our daily life clearly.
D. We should control personal feelings ourselves.
68. According to the author, which can always be under our control
A. The weather conditions.
B. The delay of a flight.
C. Other people’s feelings.
D. Our own behavior.
69. Which proverb be st suits the author’s advice in Paragraph 5
A. A burden of one’s choice is not felt.
B. A friend is easier lost than found.
C. Think twice before acting.
D. A good beginning is half done.
70. What does the underlined phrase “push our buttons” probably mean in
Paragraph 3
A. Force us to do a good job.
B. Make us angry.
C. Take off our buttons.
D. Let us down.

第二节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
When we were growing up in our grandparents’ home, Jack, my grandfather, was al ways in his room sitting in the chair and listening to the radio. The voices speaking from the metal box day and night, taught us that there was a larger world outside. He would roll the black dial (刻度盘) back and forth until the signal w as clear. Then he would listen.
Now he is old and falls ill. When I went to visit him, he said to me, “I dislike the Internet. The problem is that we’re losing primary contact with each other. No more shaking hands. Everyone is so busy. We want too much and in the process o f getting it we miss so much.” He stopped for a while. “It makes me lonely
and sad.” Then he looked at me, “I just want to hear your voices.”
I think of all the voices on the radio he has spent a lifetime listening to. I asked, “How did you become interested in the radio” “I don’t know,” he said. “It was another way to reach people. I was always interested in searching for a better signal, a clearer, more powerful signal that could communicate with someone somewhere.”
“And I’ll tell you another funny thing:you can electronically eliminate all kinds of noise from the signal, but you can’t remove natural noise caused by thunder and lightning, rainstorms, or snowstorms.”
He closed his eyes and smiled. “I was just thinking that in spite of all our technologies, maybe we haven’t progressed that far as human beings. We shouldn’t forget we still have the same basic needs.”
