第一部分阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

WILD WEATHERMAN

Name: Sam Champion

Hot job: TV Weatherman

Where: WABC-TV, New York City

When you were a child, did you plan to forecast wind, rain, and snow on TV?

I wanted to be a foreign journalist. I took courses in weather science at Eastern Kentucky University, but I majored in broadcasting news.

How did you finally become a weatherman?

My first job in the early 80’s was at the local TV station in Paducah, Kentucky.

I did everything from turning on the lights in the morning to writing and delivering morning news. I put together weather forecasts, and became interested in them.

Back then, how did you forecast weather?

Independent companies collected computer information that showed, for example, how a single weather system might split into snow or snow mixed with rain. The information was often opposite and the job of a weatherman was to study the information and make the best educated guess about the storm.

Has weather forecasting changed much with new technology?

Advanced computers, satellites, and Doppler radar (sound waves used to track storms) have made forecasting more exact. But we still know very little about how weather is shaped. So far, we just have theories.

Any advi ce for children who’d like to become weather scientists?

To me, weather is the most exciting field in the world. There are still so many more questions about weather than answers. After all, if we can’t foresee floods or hurricanes, how safe a society are we? Weather forecasting is wide open for scientists who love to solve puzzling problems. The next generation of meteorologists (weather scientists) will unlock many of Earth’s weather secrets. So get a general knowledge of Earth science, and study meteorology (weather science) in college.

Thanks, Sam.

46. Judging from the writing style, the text is ________.

A. a diary

B. an interview

C. a news story

D. an announcement

47. As a child, ABC-TV’s Sam Champion wanted to be a ________.

A. space scientist

B. weatherman

C. news reporter

D. meteorologist

48. The study of weather science is called ________.

A meteorology

B forecasting

C geography

D earth science

It’s not easy being a teenager –nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you’ll still be there for him when h e needs you. Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving, consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tel l you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teena ger’s privacy . Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations.

Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation (节制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.

49. The main purpose of the text is to tell parents ______.

A. how to get along with a teenager

B. how to respect a teenager

C. how to understand a teenager

D. how to help a teenager grow up

50. What does the phrase “clam up” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. become excited

B. show respect

C. refuse to talk

D. seek help

51. The last paragraph is about how to teach a teenager ______.

A. to use the phone in a sensible way

B. to pay for his own telephone

C. to share the phone with friends

D. to answer the phone quickly

C

Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this. Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded (包围) by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This

has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children will buy less take away food.

There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, this will carry on throughout their lives.

There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an pastime(消遣), it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.

The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.

52. The main purpose of the passage is to _____.

A. tell a story

B. provide facts

C. give advice

D. compare opinions

53. The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because _____.

A. their parents often cook meals for them

B. they are too busy to go out and play

C. they can’t choose what to eat

D. there are so many fast food shops around

54. The word “steering”underlined in the last sentence most probably means _____.

A. forcing

B. guiding

C. driving

D. Moving

55. According to the passage, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?______

A. Those who often took exercise.

B. Those who often watch TV.

C. Those who often have meals at home.

D. Those who often walk to school

D

A recent survey of teachers found that an unhealthy passion with celebrity （名人）culture is having a negative impact on British students’ studies and it discovered that celebrity couple, the Beckhams, are the favorites among most students. Many students are ignoring building their own careers to seek a chance at fame instead, the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL) survey found. Almost two-thirds of teachers said sports stars were the type of celebrity many pupils wanted to follow while more than half of students wanted to be pop stars. The survey said the celebrities that students aspired to mostly were David and Victoria Beckham who live in Los Angeles now. Soccer player Beckham is on the top of the survey while in second place, with almost a third of the survey’s votes, was his 33-year-old pop star wife.

Almost half of the 300 teachers surveyed said pupils tried to look like or behave like the celebrities they most admired, with some girls even dressing "unsuitably".

"We are not surprised about the influence of celebrity culture in schools —it reflects the current media passion with celebrities and the effect of celebrity culture on society as a whole," ATL general secretary Mary Bousted said in a statement.

"Celebrities can have a positive effect on pupils. They can raise pupils’ aspirations and desires for the future. However, celebrity culture can spread the idea that celebrity status（身份，地位） is the greatest achievement and reinforce （强化，加深） the belief that other career choices are not as valuable," said one primary school teacher. "Too many of the pupils believe that school success is unnecessary, because they will be able to get fame and fortune quite easily through

a reality TV show."

56. The story mainly tells us that ______.

A. the Beckhams are mostly admired in Britain

B. most students think being pop stars is more valuable than other career achievements

C. the celebrity passion has a harmful impact upon British s tudents’ studies

D. a survey was made recently about the popularity of the stars

57. According to the survey, Victoria Beckham ______.

A. is a pop star most students admire

B. goes in the second place of the celebrities admired

C. won two-thirds of the votes

D. lives in New York now

58. Why does the author mention that pupils tried to look like or behave like the celebrities they most admired, with some girls even dressing “unsuitably”?_______.

A. The pupils think it interesting to pretend to be the celebrities.

B. The behavior or the dress of celebrities can be followed as examples.

C. The author wants to show the negative influence these celebrities had on the students.

D. The author just wants to show being pop stars is very valuable to the students.

59. What is not TRUE according to the story?______.

A. Celebrities can’t have positive impact on the students.

B. Beckham and Victoria are husband and wife.

C. The so-called celebrity culture does harm to the pupils’ ideas about achievement.

D. Many students believe that school success is unnecessary.

60. The best title of the story is _____.

A.Sports Star David Beckham

B. Survey of Students about Celebrities

C Harmful Effect of Celebrities on Students D. Better to Be Pop Stars Than Sports Stars
