We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects （缺陷）that can never be changed．―I’m impatient．‖ ―I’m always behind．‖ ―I always put th ings 21 !‖ You’ve surely heard them．Maybe you’ve used them to describe 22 ．

These comments may come from stories about us that have been 23 for years—often from 24 childhood．These stories may have no 25 in fact．But they can set low expectations for us．As a child, my mother said to me, ―Marshall, you have no mechanical （操作机械的）skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life．‖ How did these expectations 26 my development? I was never 27 to work on cars or be around 28 ．When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test．My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!

Six years later, 29 , I was at California University, working on my doctor’s degree．One of my professors, Dr．Bob Tann baum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do．On the positive side, I 30 down, ―research, writing, analysis, and speaking．‖ On the 31 side, I wrote, ―I have no mechanical skills．‖

Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills．I explained my life 32 and told him about my 33 performance on the Army test．Bob then asked, ―34 is it that you can solve 35 mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?‖

Suddenly I realized that I didn’t 36 from some sort of genetic defect．I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to 37 ．At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been 38 my belief that I was mechanically hopeless．And it wasn’t just the Army test, e ither．I was the one who kept telling myself, ―You can’t do this!‖ I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to

remain true．39 , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost 40 we choose．

第三节．阅读理解（每小题2分，共50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 year ago August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan．His wife, Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria, but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising．The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years．Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift—＄7,000，a legacy （遗产）form their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident ．―It really made a difference when we were going under financially．‖ says Dave．

But the Fusses weren’t the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpected legacy from the Hatches．Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches’ generosity．In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars ; in other, it was more than ＄100,000．

It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money, more than ＄3 million—they were an elderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm ．

Children of the Great Depression, Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving．They thrived on （喜欢）comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store, checking prices before making a new purchase ．

Through the years, the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn’t afford it．―Ish and Arlene never asked whether you needed anything,‖ says their friend Sand Van Weelden, ―They could see things they could do to make you happier, and they would do them．

Even more extraordinary was that the Hatches had their farmland distributed．It was the Hatches’ wish that their legacy—a legacy of kindness as much as one of dollars and cents —should enrich the whole community and Ish and Arlene Hatch’s story．

Neighbors helping neighbors ——that was Ish and Arlene Hatch’s story．

41．According go the text, the Fusses_______________．

A．were employed by a truck company B．were in financial difficulty

C．worked in a school cafeteria D．lost their home

42．Which of the following is true of the Hatches?

A．They had their children during the Great Depression．

B．They left the family farm to live in an old house．

C．They gave away their possessions to their neighbors．

D．They helped their neighbors to find jobs．

43．Why would the Hatches routinely go from store?

A．They decided to open a store．B．They wanted to save money．

C．They couldn’t afford expensive things．D．They wanted to buy gifts for local kids．44．According to Sand Van Weelden, the Hatches were_________．

A．understanding B．optimistic C．childlike D．curious

45．What can we learn from the text?

A．The community of Alto was poor．

B．The summer camp was attractive to the parents．

C．Sandy Van Weelden got a legacy form the Hatches．

D．The Hatches would like the neighbors to follow their example．

B

How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments－mostly for entertainment purposes－is fair and respectful?

Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals．How ever, most zoos remain ―collections‖ of interesting ―things‖ rather than protective habitats （栖息地）．Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural bones．

Zoos claim （声称）to educate people and save endangered species（物种）, but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty．Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range（分布区）．The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs．

The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise．These results in unusual and self-destructive behavior called zoophobia．A worldwide study of zoos found that zoophobia is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages．Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain．Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered．Captive breeding（圈养繁殖）of endangered big

cats, Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild．Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out．In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers．Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?

Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them．Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natu ral habitats．

46．How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos?

A．Dangerous．B．Unhappy．C．Natural．D．Easy．

47．In the state of zoophobia, animals _________．

A．remain in cages B．behave strangely

C．attack other animals D．enjoy moving around

48．What does the author try to argue in the passage?

A．Zoos are not worth the public support．

B．Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals．

C．Zoos should treat animals as human beings．

D．Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment．

49．The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _____．

A．pointing out the faults in what zoos do

B．using evidence he has collected at zoos

C．questioning the way animals is protected

D．discussing the advantages of natural habitats

50．Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agree that _______．

A．zoos have to keep animals in small cages

B．most animals in zoos are endangered species

C．some endangered animals are reproduced in zoos

D．it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats

C

Motherhood may make women smarter and may help prevent dementia（痴呆）in old age by bathing the brain in protective hormones（荷尔蒙）, U．S．researchers reported on Thursday．Tests on rats show that those who raise two or more litters of pups do considerably better in tests of memory and skills than rats who have no babies, and their brains show changes that suggest they may be protected against diseases such as Alzheimer’s（早老痴呆症）．University of Richmond psychology professor Craig Kinsley believes his findings will translate into humans．―Our research shows that the hormones of pregnancy（怀孕）are protecting the brain, including estrogen（雌激素）, which we know has many neuroprotective （保护神经的）effects,‖ Kinsley said．

―It’s rat data but humans are mammals just like these animals are mammals,‖ he added in a telephone interview．―They go through pregnancy and hormonal changes．‖ Kinsley said he hoped public health officials and researchers will look to see if having had children protects a woman from Alzheimer’s and other forms of age-related brain decline．

―When people think about pregnancy, they think about what happens to babies and the mother from the

neck down,‖ said Kinsley, who presented his findings to the annual meeting of the Society of Neuroscience in Orlando, Florida．

―They do not realize that hormones are washing on the brain．If you look at female animals that have never gone through pregnancy, they act differently toward young．But if she goes through pregnancy, she will sacrifice her life for her infant—that is a great change in her behavior that showed in genetic alterations （改变）to the brain．‖

51．How do scientists know ―Motherhood may make women smarter‖?

A．Some researchers have told them．

B．Many women say so．

C．They know it by experimenting on rats．

D．They know it through their own experience．

52．What does the phrase ―litters of pups‖ mean in the second paragraph?

A．Baby rats．B．Animals．C．Old rats．D．Grown-up rats．53．What can protect the brain of a woman according to the passage?

A．Estrogen．B．The hormones of pregnancy．

C．More exercise．D．Taking care of children．

54．―It’s rat data but humans are mammals just like these animals are mammals．‖ What does the sentence suggest?

A．The experiments on the rats have nothing to do with humans．

B．The experiments on the rats are very important for animals．

C．The experiments on the rats are much the same on humans．

D．The experiments on the rats are much the same on other animals．

55．Which title is the best for this passage?

A．Do You Want to Be Smarter?

B．Motherhood Makes Women Smarter

C．Mysterious Hormones

D．An Important Study

D

Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home．

What to Expect

The host will provide accommodation and meals．Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week．You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health．

Accommodation Zones

Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system．Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential（居住的）．Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowned area．It is very convenient to travel in London by underground．

Meal Plans Available

? Continental Breakfast

? Breakfast and Dinner

? Breakfast, Packed Lunch and Dinner

It’s important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast．Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal（谷物类食品），bread and tea or coffee．Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England．Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by desert, fruit and coffee．Friends

If you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host’s permission．You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy．Self-Catering Accommodation in Private Homes

Accommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room．This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student．However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practice English at home quite as much．

61 _________________________________

There were the older jazz musicians who hung around our house when I was young．I saw how much they practiced, how serious they were about their art．I knew then I had to work just as hard if I wanted to succeed．Of course, my father inspired me a lot, and many teachers took the time to nurture my talent and the talents of other students in our school．

62．_____________________________

Yes．We’ve done such a poor job with music education because, as a society, we haven’t maintained the kind of education that a true artist and musician needs．Young people haven’t been able t o equate romance and talent with music．For instance, most of the people who make it in the music industry today have to look good．How they sound is secondary．Sarah Vaughan, Bessie Smith, Ella Fitzgerald — those big, romantic queens of jazz music wouldn’t make it in today’s music industry, and that’s a shame．We need to teach young people about the alternatives．

63．______________________________

Around the world people make music that, if you listen carefully to it, sounds a little like the cadence of their language．I’d call it folk music．When I’m away from home, I make a point of listening to regional folk music, not what’s on the radio．

64．_______________________________

The same music is on the radio all over the world, and the American sound is overwhelming．Even the pop music that’s produced and created in foreign countries has that American beat, which underscore funk．As a musician, I’m not interested in hearing recycled versions of the same genre over and over．Any music that doesn’t have a development section just isn’t interesting to me．

65．_________________________________

The music press has so much to introduce these days, and jazz is just a small fraction of it．Because some people are intimidated by jazz, they don’t cover it unless it’s a big name．New jazz musicians don’t get much of break．A lot of editors don’t say anything about jazz these days unless it’s Marsalis．That’s a shame．What VH1 is doing with their Save the Music campaign is phenomenal．They’re getting all these instruments out to needy kids．It’s the kind of thing all networks should be doing．

With the College Entrance Examinations approaching day by day，some senior three students are moving out from their dorms and living in rented apartments near their schools．

Most students think although school dorms bring them fun and friendship，the blackout rule to guarantee students sleeping hours doesn’t leave them enough time to finish their homework．Worse still，the noise in the dorms not only influences their studies but also ruins their rest．To many parents, they’d like to provide a better environment for their children so that they can study more efficiently．Besides，they can take care of their children’s daily meals and laundry，so their children can eat better and have a comfortable life．

In my opinion，whether a student should rent a house outside his school depends on his need．I am in favor of renting a house for the sake of study．After all，time is pressing．But I strongly recommend that parents should care much about their children while they are outside school．
