第三部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

When the Berlin Wall came down in 1989, Leonard Bernstein gave a concert in Berlin, including Beethoven's Ode to Joy, with the word "Joy" changed to "Freedom" in the lyrics sung．The orchestra（管弦乐队）were drawn from both East and West Germany, as well as the United Kingdom, France, the Soviet Union, and the United States．

Freedom was in the air and it was not just for people．The wall between East and West Germany had also kept a large population of wild pigs within the eastern forests of Brandenburg．The wall's falling down made it easier for the big pigs—a very big one can weigh over 300 pounds—to leave the woodlands and walk into the town．Warm winters and easy access to food have helped the population increase．Now about 10,000 wild pigs walk around Berlin．The nature of the beast has added to the boom（兴旺）．"The pigs are intelligent," says Marc Franusch, a spokesman for the Berlin forestry department．"They learn to use the neighborhoods．They get used to people, dogs, and traffic．"

The wild pigs tend to travel in small groups and have been found searching rubbish and gardens, feeding their piglets（小猪）in the shadow of parked cars, and crossing busy roads．On average, the animals are involved in one traffic accident every day．And despite the fact that it's illegal, some Berliners have been known to give the pigs food．

Though wild pigs are protected under German law, the city's forestry department is permitted to kill 2,000 of the creatures every year, targeting mostly young adult animals in forests surrounding Berlin．Pigs within city limits are only shot if they make an immediate threat．No humans have yet been seriously wounded by them, but local dogs have been the victims of their tusks．"The forestry department is not aiming to get rid of the pigs," explains Franusch, "but we do have to reduce dangerous situations．"

56．The concert in the first paragraph is given to ．

A．celebrate Bernstein's success

C．express people's joy for freedom

B．show the artists' delight of life

D．remind people of fighting for rights

57．The following factors contribute to the boom of wild pigs EXCEPT ．A．warm winter B．adequate food

C．their own nature D．the Berlin Wall

58．From the text we can know that ．

A．it is against law to offer food to wild pigs

B．in Berlin people can never kill any wild pig

C．wild pigs each weigh more than three hundred pounds

D．traffic accidents are mainly caused by wild pigs in Berlin

59．The article mainly talks about ．

A．how wild pigs are living in Berlin

B．when wild pigs were united in Berlin

C．why wild pigs in Berlin increase so rapidly

D．what damage wild pigs have done to Berliners

Well, to pick up where we left off last time, I believe now we might all agree that self-improvement is of great benefit for each of us．However, there are lots of stops along the road to self-improvement, which often calls for patience, emotional strength and kindness．With concentrated effort, you can become a better person than you ever thought possible．1．．Nice people always put themselves in the other person's shoes．If the service is a little slow, maybe it's because the waitress has been standing for 8 hours and her back and feet are aching．Perhaps her little baby isn't feeling well and she got very little sleep the night before．In a word, you never know the full story from a brief meeting with a person．2．Be a reasonable man．Service-centered businesses often live by the idea "The Customer is Always Right．" They're totally mistaken．The customer is not always right; sometimes the customer is quite difficult to deal with．You do not "deserve" a free meal because the waitress forgot to bring you a spoon．If you have a grievance, let it out, but be reasonable．3．Fight fairly．When arguing with another person, stick to the subject．Present the facts briefly, and don't bring up unrelated incidents that happened 4 weeks from last Tuesday．Never hesitate to create a chance for other people to voice their opinions．They are just as important as yours．

4．Put others first．Let the troubled-looking Mom have the parking space．Stand a few extra seconds holding the door for an elderly person．Don't interrupt people when they're speaking, or finish their sentences for them．Such small things, yet the effects are immediate and far-reaching．Nice people make a concentrated effort to be kind and put others needs above their own．Stop a moment and think how you can help someone, and you'll become a nicer person．64．What might the speaker most probably discuss last time?

A．The origin of self-improvement．`B．The process of self-improvement．

C．The structure of self-improvement．`D．The importance of self-improvement．65．The best title for the second paragraph is " "．

A．Be understanding B．Stay calm

C．Be positive D．Be merciless

B．Put forward relevant facts in detail when arguing．

C．Make your voice heard when others are speaking．

D．Involve your own matters with others' when arguing．

Over the years, Americans have become used to salt．Most people have no idea how much salt they consume-on average, about 9 to 12 gram per person per day, according to the American Heart Association．That's twice the amount recommended by the government．

A new study last week showed eating even a little less salt could greatly help the heart．The scientists said the results would be thirteen percent fewer heart attacks, eight percent fewer strokes （中风）, four percent fewer deaths and eleven percent fewer new cases of heart disease．Researchers also found that the benefits would be greatest for African Americans and women．As a group, African Americans tend to have higher blood pressure than the general population, and "many studies suggest that they may be more sensitive to salt," says Dr．Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo, an epidemiologist（流行病学家）at the University of California, San Francisco．Her analysis found that a reduction of 3 gram of salt per day would reduce heart attacks 8% on average; among African Americans, that rate would drop 10%．A similar result was found in women, whose stroke risk dropped 8% with a 3-g reduction in salt intake; in men, the risk fell 5%．

They and public health professionals in the United States are interested in a national campaign to persuade people to eat less salt．

However, other scientists say such a campaign is an experiment with the health of millions of people．

Michael Alderman, a high blood pressure expert and professor at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, says that eating less salt results in lower blood pressure．But he says studies have not clearly shown that lowering salt means fewer heart attacks or strokes．“Salt has other biological effects．Calling for reductions in the national diet could have good effects, as well as harmful results．There is not enough evidence either way,”said Michael Alderman．

68．Eating too much salt may lead to the following EXCEPT ．

A．stroke B．heart disease

C．high blood pressure D．lung cancer

69．What can we learn from the passage?

A．Most Americans take more salt than advised．

B．African women eat more salt than Americans．

C．One's origin determines how much salt he can eat．

D．Good health is just on the basis of having less salt．

70．The author's attitude toward the study is ．

A．cold B．objective C．subjective D．doubtful 71．What's the best title of the passage?

A．The Benefits of Eating Less Salt．B．A New Study on Salt and Diseases．C．An Argument Over Salt and Health．D．The Harm Caused by Too Much Salt．

Today's huge earthquake and tsunami sent home the idea that despite advances in building and infrastructure, we're all subject to Mother Nature．In today's increasingly interconnected

economy, the economic fallout from a natural disaster is rarely limited to the geographic area it hits．In fact, even natural disasters that take place thousands of miles away can shake up your portfolio（资产）here at home．

One of the biggest problems for areas affected by natural disasters is business disruption（动乱）．With road, communication infrastructure and building damage common after sizable disasters, it's not uncommon for local businesses to shut down for some time．That's what happened after Hurricane（飓风）Katrina hit the Gulf coast back in ．As companies recovered from their losses, thousands of workers in Louisiana, Texas and Mississippi were left jobless, With this mass unemployment came a severe cutback in consumer spending and consequently, tax income needed to be used in the rebuilding effects．

Less obvious---but perhaps even more significant-- are the effects that a natural disaster can have on commodity prices．In the case of Hurricane Katrina, the storm's entry point at the Golf coast was significant because of the fact that the refineries（冶炼厂）through which nearly half of the gasoline consumed in the US passed were affected by the storm．As a result, people cannot go out from their houses, food supplies were affected immediately after the disasters made landfall．With increased radiation pump prices, extra effects included: reduced profits for industries ---from transportation to consumer goods．

Similar things happened in the copper market as earthquake in Chile hit production and increased copper prices worldwide．Ultimately, it's difficult to imagine the extent of the economic loss major natural and man-made disasters can bring about．And although the majority of disasters impact the ruined area's economy severely, they can have an effect on a larger scale．Although there's little we can do to avoid Mother Nature's next catastrophe, we can better prepare for it---both physically and financially．Understanding the economic implications of a disaster whether natural or man-made is the first step toward that．

72．According to the first paragraph, we learn that ．

A．people should not fight against nature

B．we should improve the technology in building

C．some effects of a natural disaster can be avoided

D．natural disasters can affect places that are far away

73．After Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf coast, ．

A．many companies moved out of the area

B．many workers were out of work in the area

C．taxes were raised around the country to support the area

D．transportation was stopped for quite a long time in the area

74．Oi1 and gas supplies were affected at once after the storm because ．A．the need for oil and gas suddenly increases

B．the gas companies raised the prices on purpose

C．the production of oil and gas was influenced by the storm

D．there was not a suitable place to trade oil and gas any more

75．The passage was written mainly about_ ．

A．giving advice on how to avoid natural disasters

B．showing us the importance of protecting the nature

C．telling us about the financial effects of natural disasters

D．showing us how to recover from natural disaster swiftly

第一节任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）

阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。

The fast development of Internet makes it convenient for people to have access to the latest information all over the world, which broadens people's horizons．However, sometimes the Internet is abused by some to spread rumors（谣言）on purpose, resulting in side effect on people's life．Therefore, The Internet Society of China released a written proposal last Monday which demanded of Internet companies and websites to strengthen self-discipline and prevent the spread of online rumors．

Three major websites in China voiced their solutions Tuesday to fight against online rumors in response to the warning on Monday．

Chiefs of https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html,, https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html, and https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html, have promised the government that they will firmly cooperate with relevant departments to deal with the online spreading of rumors, saying they will improve self-management and take effective measures toward this goal．Microblogging websites should not be a hotbed for spreading of rumors, said a chief of https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html,, which operates the country's most popular microblogging site https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html,．He said Sina was making efforts to control the release of contents on https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html, and improve its ability to find out and remove rumors posted on it．

https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html, and another major Chinese microblogging site https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html, stopped their comment functions from March 31 to April 3 after they were punished for allowing rumors to spread．

A chief from https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html, said it was calling off illegal and fake（虚假）information in its search results and it would further increase technical and manpower investment to remove disinformation．

The website https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html, is learning from the past experience and bettering the safety strategy for its microblogging service to further prevent the spreading of online rumors through microblogging sites, said an unnamed chief from https://www.360docs.net/doc/1e2953124.html,．

The measure has received widespread support from users and now people can enjoy a relative clean and safe net environment．
