Ⅱ阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，共40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
“Can I see my baby？” asked the happy new mother. The bundle （a collection of things wrapped or boxed together） was placed in her arms and when she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped -- the baby had been born without ears. Time, however, proved that the baby’s hearing was perfect except his appearance.
One day when he rushed home from school and threw himself into his mother’s arms, he cried out bitterly, “A boy, a big boy… called me -- a f... freak.” She sighed, knowing that his life was to be endless of heartbreaks.
He grew up, handsome for his misfortune. A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that. He developed a gift for literature and music.
Th e boy’s father had a talk with the family doctor. Could nothing be done？“I believe we could graft （移植）on a pair of outer ears, if they could be donated （捐献）,” the doctor decided. So the search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice for a young man. Two years went by. Then, “You’re going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have someone who
will donate the ears you need. But it’s a secret.” said the father.
The operation was a brilliant success. His talents blossomed into genius. School and college became a series of successes. Later he married and entered the diplomatic （外交）service. “But I must know!” he urged his father. “Who gave so much for me？ I could never do enough for him.”
“I do not believe you could,” said the father，“but the agre ement was that you are not to know…not yet.” The years kept the secret, but the day did come... one of the darkest days that ever passed through a son. He stood with his father over his mother’s casket（棺材）. Slowly and tenderly, the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick, reddish-brown hair to let out the secret.
56. The story is mainly about _______.
A. how a boy had new ears through an operation

C. badly-behaved student
D. strangely-shaped creature
59. What can be inferred from the passage？
A. The agreement was between the donator and the family.
B. The boy was so popular that he was made class president.
C. Finally the boy came to know who the donator was.
D. The mother donated her ears to her son after she died.
60. What moral lesson can we draw from this reading？

C. True beauty lies only in the heart not in appearance.
D. Young generations should learn to be grateful.
B
“Get your hands off me, I have been stolen,” the laptop, a portable computer, shouted. That is a new solution to laptop computer theft （the crime of stealing）：a program that lets owners give their property a voice when it has been taken.
The program allows users to display alerts （warning）on the missing computer’s screen and even to set a spoken message. Tracking software for stolen laptops has been on the market for some time, but this is thought to be the first that allows owners to give the thief a piece of their mind.
Owners must report their laptop missing by visiting a website, which sends a message to the model：a red and yellow “lost or stolen” sign ap pears on its screen when it is started. Under the latest version of the software, users can also send a spoken message.
The message can be set to reappear every 30 seconds, no matter how many times the thief
closes it. “One customer sent a message saying, ‘You are being tracked. I am right at your door’,” said Carrie Hafeman, chief executive of the company which produces the program, Retriever.
In the latest version, people can add a spoken message. For example, the laptop’s speakers will say：“Help, this la ptop is reported lost or stolen. If you are not my owner, report me now.”
The Retriever software package, which costs $29.95 but has a free trial period, has the functions of many security software programs. Owners can remotely （远程地）switch to an alternative （可替换的）password immediately if they fear that the thief has also got hold of the access （进入, 使用） details.
If a thief accesses the Internet with the stolen laptop, Retriever will collect information on the Internet service provider in use, so that the police can be alerted to its location.
Thousands of laptops are stolen every year from homes and offices, but with the use of laptops increasing, the number stolen while their owners are out and about has been rising sharply.
Other security software allows users to erase data remotely or lock down the computer. 61. The underlined expression “to give the thief a piece of their mind” in Paragraph 2 can be
understood as “_______”.
A. to give the thief an alert mind
B. to express the owners’ anger to the thief
C. to remind the thief of his conscience （良心）
D. to make the thief give up his mind
62. Different from other security software, Retriever can _______.
A. record the stealing process
B. help recognize the lost laptop
C. lock down the computer remotely
D. send a spoken message
63. One function of the program is that it allows the owner to _______ at a distance.
A. change some access details for switching on the laptop
B. turn on the laptop by using the original password
C. operate the laptop by means of an alternative password
D. erase the information kept in the stolen laptop
64. Which of the following can best sum up the main idea of the passage？
A. With no Retriever, thousands of laptops are stolen every year.
B. A new software provides a means to reduce laptop theft.
C. Retriever has helped to find thieves and lost computers.
D. A new program offers a communication platform with the thief.
65. What does the word “it” in Para graph 4 refer to？
A. the alert message
B. the computer
C. the program
D. the laptop
C
Nothing succeeds like confidence. When you are truly confident, it radiates （辐射） from you like sunlight, and attracts success to you like a magnet （磁铁）. Besides, those who are self-confident can in turn inspire （encourage）confidence in others：their audience, their peers, their bosses, their customers, and their friends. And gaining the confidence of others is
one of the key ways in which a self-confident person finds success.
So how can we build a sense of self-confidence and prepare ourselves on the way to success？
First, do what you believe to be right, even if others mock or criticize you for it. Believe in yourself and believe that you can do it in any situations, because if you believe you can, then you really will. The belief keeps you searching for answers, which means that pretty soon you will get them.
Second, govern your behavior based on what other people think. What’s more important, be willing to take risks and go the extra miles to achieve better results, in which case mistakes can not be avoided. Always be ready to admit your mistakes, and learn from them. Next, work hard to settle the problems in order to cover up your mistakes before anyone notices. Building self-confidence is readily achievable, as long as you have the focus and determination to carry things through. And what’s even better is that the things you’ll do to build self-confidence will also build success -- after all, your confidence will come from real, solid achievement. No one can take this away from you!
As you sow, so will you reap. With your perseverance （毅力）and improvement, you are getting closer to success. At this stage, wait for others to give congratulations and compliments on your achievements. “Thanks, I really worked hard on it. I’m pleased you recognize my efforts.” The congratulations and compliments from others will promote you to gain further success.
Self-confidence is extremely important in almost every aspect of our lives, and it is no wonder that so many people struggle to find it. Self-confidence really can be learned and built on. Besides, whether you’re working on your own self-confidence or building the confidence
of people around you, it’s w ell worth the effort!
66. Those who are truly confident _______.
A. succeed without effort and hard work
B. encourage people around to become confident
C. appear more attractive and thus become successful
D. gain the confidence of others and feel successful
67. The underlined word “mock” （Paragraph 2） is closest in meaning to _______.
A. praise
B. imitate （模仿）
C. punish
D. laugh at
68. When others congratulate us on our achievements, we are supposed to _______..
A. praise them in return
B. gain further improvement
C. politely accept the compliments
D. expect them to congratulate you again
69. Which of the following proverbs （sayings） best goes with Paragraph 4？
A. Look before your leap.
B. It is no use crying over spilt milk.
C. Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.
D. Learn from past mistakes and avoid future ones.
70. The purpose of the text is to _______.
A. tell people how to become successful
B. convince people to do what they believe to be right
C. encourage people to build confidence and achieve success
D. criticize people who lack confidence and thus fail in their career
D
When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from China.
When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now.
Still, her answer surprised me：“Green tea.”
As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink Indian tea.
I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses.
At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian. It was a strange country.
How things change! And how soon!
Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China.
The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done.
A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment （投资） and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”.
But it’s a two-way street. I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Rangalore to train in software. Meanwhile, all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.
No wonder that trade, which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to hit
about US $15 billion for last year and US $20 billion by 2012, a goal set by both governments. No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian （中国和印度的） century as the two countries started on January 1st the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.
But what is still a wonder to me is my mother’s drinking Chinese tea.
71. Why did the mother ask for Chinese green tea？
A. She was tired of Indian tea.
B. She had a son working in China.
C. She believed it had a curing effect.
D. She was fond of Chinese products.
72. What does the author mean by “it’s a two-way street” in Para graph 10？
A. China and India have different traffic rules.
B. Tea trade works wonders in both India and China.
C. Chinese products are popular in both China and India.
D. There are exchanges between India and China.
73. What do we know about the Indian IT industry？
A. It is seeking further development in China.
B. It will move its head office to Shenzhen.
C. It has attracted an investment of US $15 billion.
D. It caught up with the US IT industry in
74. In the text the author expresses _______.
A. his concern for his mother’s health
B. his support for drinking Chinese green tea
C. his surprise at China’s recent development
D. his wonder at the growth of India’s IT industry
75. It is inferred in the text that _______.
A. the au thor’s mother loves China very much
B. the Indians were not familiar with China before
C. the government of India encourages their people to buy Chinese green tea
D. the two countries didn’t cooperate until last year
