第一节阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40.分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Dear Laura,
How are you? It has been several weeks since I heard from you. I have been missing you a lot these days, so I thought I should find out how you are doing. Hope this letter finds you in the best of health. Things here are fine, though they seem to be a little boring now without you.
Since school started, I have made some new friends who are great company(陪伴).But I keep remembering what a great time we had during our summer vacations. Those long rides in the woods, often shopping at the mall and our video game matches were all so much fun. Things here are a little different, and it is going to take me some time to get used to them.
I have some great professors who make classes very interesting. I actually look forward to doing my homework for these classes. However, there are some really boring science classes that I just don't seem to enjoy. They all sound so difficult, but I have to learn them. A few years later, I am going to drop these subjects forever! The good thing is that all the friends I've made feel just the same way about these science classes.
How have things been with you? How about your school and all those &eat friends you keep talking about? Did you join that guitar class you wanted to so badly? Look forward to hearing from you.
By the way, Dad has bought me the latest video game controller. It is really amazing! Waiting for you to come back here so that we can have some more video game matches!

I'm pretty sure everyone wants to visit Europe at least once in their lifetime. Here's a list of the most amazing places to visit in Europe.
Riviera
Wow, this is such a beautiful place in Italy. The Cinque Terre is a gorgeous national park, which connects five beautiful villages. Walking paths connect the villages, follow the coastline and offer hikes through hills. The villages remain unaffected by tourism.
Tuscany
Another Italian region, Tuscany is simply appealing. The buildings there are amazing, and the culture is special. From the historical center of Florence to the Cathedral of Pisa, it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Make sure you check out the nature reserves, and enjoy a few bottles of the very famous wine.
Lauterbrunnen
Since a school trip here, I've always wanted to revisit this city in Switzerland. The city always seems as if it’s trapped in time. There are untouched fountains and springs everywhere, and a huge number of waterfalls and valleys. The area is very popular for skiing.
The Greek Islands
There are plenty of places to visit in Greece. But I love the Greek Islands best. White houses and beautiful churches, cliffs, beaches and the Aegean Sea make this a shocking and very popular place to visit. However, there is more to do here than just sunbathe. I cannot wait to go back and check out the caves and culture that make the Greek Islands one of the best places in Europe. Venice
I am a big Italy lover, and Venice is another city that is not to be missed. It has its own share of history, art and gorgeous buildings. However, the attraction comes from the pedestrian (行人) - only streets and rivers filled with boats.
( ) 31. What do we know about Riviera?
A. It is far from the coastline.
B. It offers paths for people to hike.
C. It’s a famous place of interest.
D. It’s the most popular traveling place in Italy.
( ) 32. What does the underlined word “appealing” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. New. B. Modern.
C. Historical. D. Attractive.
( ) 33. According to the passage, people who are interested in waterfalls and valleys would most probably go to _______.

For a very long tune humans were responsible for the dropping numbers of sea lions. Today it is against the law in many areas to hunt, harm, or kill a sea lion. However, this doesn't stop such events from taking place secretly. In some countries including Japan there are laws to protect sea lions, but they simply aren't obeyed.
Adult sea lions tend to suffer from plenty of health problems such as cancer. These are problems that usually affect adults. Once a sea lion has cancer there is very little chance for it to recover.
Tapeworms (绦虫) are a huge concern for sea lions as well. While they generally don’t kill them, they can cause the animals to suffer poor health, This is because tapeworms take away many of the nutrients (营养) that the sea lions depend on to grow.
While female sea lions do try to take good care of their young, there are limits. If they aren’t getting enough food, they will stop producing milk for the young to live on. They may become meals for male sea lions when they have no food to eat. Many of the young pups drown when they are in the water because they are not strong enough for the currents (涌流). Their brown color for the first six months means they can be easily noticed by killer whales and sharks. On land these young pups can end up being given up by the adults when there is danger.
There are now international laws to help protect the sea lions from dying out. Conservation groups are working hard to educate the public about the need to protect them. There are laws in place to help protect their natural environments, too. For example in California there are limits of where boats can go so that sea lions aren’t as likely to be struck by them.
( ) 36. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph l refer to?
A. Sea lions.
B. Some countries.
C. Japanese people. .
D. Laws to protect sea lions.
( ) 37. Tapeworms are harmful to sea lions because they _______.
A. make them unable to eat
B. can lead to cancer in them
C. can cause them to die easily
D. can lead to poor health in them
( ) 38. What is implied about female sea lions in Paragraph 4?
A. They never really care about their pups.
B. They put their own needs before their pups.
C. They always try their best to feed their pups well.
D. They don’t protect their pups from male sea lions.
( ) 39. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. Why sea lions haven't died out.
B. Efforts put into protecting sea lions.
C. What conservation groups do for sea lions.
D. International laws to help protect sea lions.
( ) 40. In California the purpose of setting limits of where boats can go is to _______.
A. protect sea lions from being struck
B. prevent fishermen from hunting sea lions
C. keep away from strong currents in the sea
D. prevent people from bringing tapeworms to certain areas
D
In most developing countries, few children graduate from secondary schools and many don’t even finish primary schools. In Ghana, for example, only 50 percent of children complete Grade 5, and of those, less than half can understand a simple paragraph. The UNESCO(联合教科文组织) program Education for All aims to provide the free primary schooling for children. It has been successful in increasing the number of students. But, according to Education for All reports this year, many kids drop out of school. Why don’t they stay?
There are lots of reasons. They have difficulty in getting to school and the cost of uniforms is too much for them. As we all know, though tuition (学费) is free, there are often expenses for lunch and examinations. And because the quality of education is often poor, parents are forced to pay for private teachers to make their children pass tests. Besides, while they are in school, children have to forgo opportunities to make money working on the family farm or selling in the marketplace.
Even when learning results are good, very few students continue to study further. Job prospects (前景) for most people in the developing world are poor. If they stay in school and pass Grade 5, or even Grade 10, it does not improve them much. Education programs typically use traditional Western models of education, paying more attention to math, science, language and social studies. These programs have little to do with the lives of poor children. Most students in developing countries face a much more different future from those in developed countries. There are no higher levels of schooling or proper job opportunities for most of these children. They will likely end up working on the farm or starting their own small business.
( ) 41. How many kids in Ghana probably can’t understand a simple article?
A. More than 25%.
B. Above 45%.
C. About 50%.
D. More than 75%.
( ) 42. According to the text, which is NOT the reason for kids dropping out?
A. High tuition.
B. Problems of traffic.
C. Exam fees.
D. Lunch in the school.
( ) 43. The underlined word “forgo” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”.
A. find out
B gain
C. give up
D. choose
( ) 44. The main purpose of the passage is to_________.
A. persuade more kids to go to school for better jobs
B. advise poor parents to support their kids education
C. point out the education problems in developing countries
D. report the new development of the education
( ) 45. What’s the author's attitude towards the education in developing countries?
A. Concerned.
B. Positive.
C. Supportive.
D. Uncaring.
