第三部分短文阅读（共15小题，计30分）

七、阅读下面短文，根据短文内容判断句子的正误，正确的涂A，错误的涂B。

How important is your appearance? Although everyone wants to be good-looking, are beautiful people always happier people? For example, it must be a problem to be a really beautiful woman, because some people may be more interested in looking at you than talking to you, in this case they actually don’t really care what you are talking. There are also some people who think that women who are exceptionally pretty and men who are very handsome must be foolish. They believe that only unattractive people can be cleverer.

On the other hand, no one wants to be really ugly, or have a face that even your mother doesn't want to look at; and no one wants to be plain(平凡), either-that is, to be neither attractive nor unattractive, and have a face that is easily forgotten.

Being attractive is like being rich---it can help you find happiness, but it doesn't always make you happy. So maybe the best thing is not to worry too much about how

you look, but simply try to be an interesting person. For interesting people have interesting faces, and interesting faces are almost always attractive.

( )71. According to the passage, the good-looking people can’t always be happier.

( )72. No one likes to talk to a very pretty woman.

( )73. Some people think that unattractive people are very clever in this passage.

( )74. According to the passage, a plain face is easily forgotten.

( )75. The writer suggests people trying to be an interesting person.

There are several ways of testing the intelligence（智力）of animals. In one test, some scientists put three plates on the table. While the animal watched, they put food under one of the plates. Then they took the animal away. Some time later, they brought it back to see if it remembered which plate had the food. The idea is to find out how long an animal’s memory can last. The scientists would try showing the plate to the animal one hour later, or two hours later, or even a full day later. They found out that chimpanzees（猩猩）and elephants have the best memory, and are able to remember the correct plate for at least twenty hours. No other animal is close. Dogs

come next, but they can only remember for nine hours.

The scientists made a large maze(迷宫) and let the chimpanzees and elephants run through it. The maze was very difficult with many dead ends. It took the chimpanzees ten minutes to find their way out. The elephants needed half an hour. The test showed that chimpanzees are the cleverest animals.

From this and other tests the scientists found out an animal’s intelligence depends on the size of its brain to the size of its body. The elephant’s brain is ten pounds, but that is only 1/600 of its body. A chimpanzee’s brain is about one pound, and it’s 1/120 of its body. So the chimpanzee has five times as much brain as the elephant does.

( )81. The first test was made to test an animal’s_______ .

A.nose

B. memory

C. eyes

( )82. This passage tells us elephants ________.

A. are the cleverest animals

B. are cleverer than chimpanzees

C. have worse memories than dogs

( )83. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Dogs are less useful than elephants.

B.Scientists have found out the secret of the intelligence of animals.

C. Chimpanzees and elephants have better memories than people.

( )84. If an animal’s body is 2100 pounds, and it has a 3-pound brain, it is .

A.as clever as a chimpanzee

B. cleverer than an elephant

C. less clever than an elephant

( )85. Which is the best title of the passage?

A.The intelligence of animals

B. The Chimpanzee’s brain

C. The elephant’s memory

The school uniform, the clothes that you wear every weekday, you never forget even when you are eighty years old.

They seem to solve school problems. The first main pro(赞成意见) of wearing uniforms is that it provides a clear symbol of a student. Outsiders cannot go into the school easily without uniforms. It can help keep the students safer at school.

The teachers also thinks their students can hardly pay attention to the study if they just wear their own clothes. A uniform is like a work dress for them, they take schoolwork more seriously when they are in uniform than when they are in “play dresses”. Their own clothes give them a feel of being at home, so they fall to give necessary importance to schoolwork.

Most of the parents agree with the teachers, they often say to their children, “Without the school uniform you are just another person. By wearing a uniform you

share the glory, the proud feeling of belonging to your school!”

Some parents, especially the ones who are not so rich think wearing the uniforms is the best way to make all students look the same at school, so that their kinds can get on with other easily.

But students believe the school uniforms succeeded in making them look silly. And they think they can get important life experience by choosing their own clothing.

When children face different clothing styles at school, it also means that they are facing different groups with different interest. Although these differences can put them into different groups, they can also help kids think more by themselves. So it is good for teenagers to learn to be independent by choosing their own clothing.

What’s more, talks over clothes give kids a chance to say their ideas to parents, and more importantly, they give parents time to know their thoughts.
