三、阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
请阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
We met in a crowded showroom fifteen years ago. As I inched forward I eyed him with suspicion, unsure what to make of this stranger.A salesman made the proper introductions and although we got to know each other, I didn't trust him. I call him Super. I would find myself staring at him, wondering what secrets he held.
I found myself spending more and more time with Super, getting to know him, learning to trust him. My other friends soon became a little jealous, stating that I spent too much time with him. It was true, but I didn't feel guilty, for I could just be myself with him. He didn't care about my appearance, pay and failure. None of these things mattered to him.
Then_one_day_he_said_he_was_going_to_show_me_the_world.He_said_that_I_could_ask_to_go_anywhere,_anywhere_at_all. When I asked him to show me New York, he didn't hesitate. He showed me the bright lights of Broadway, the majestic Statue of Liberty and so much more.
Late at night we played games. Sometimes I won, sometimes he did.It didn't matter because we had fun. Through him I met other people. Men and women I never would have met if it wasn't for him.
Then suddenly he became sick. He was unable to do anything and I felt so helpless because I didn't know what was wrong. But I knew those who could.I paced around the room while he was examined.What if it was something serious? What if he died? I cried but luckily he was fine again.
I looked at him and saw my companion, teacher, instructor, travel guide and so much more.He was my friend, my best friend.He is ... my computer.

A．the salesman was always cheating customers these days.
B．Super had limited power since he was only a machine.

解析 细节理解题。第一段最终一句话的wondering what secrets he held说明作者对这个被售货员吹嘘的很好的东西的威力表示怀疑。
答案 B
37．Why did the author's other friends envy Super?
A．As Super helps the author do his housework.
B．As the author spent so much money on it.
C．As the author spent so much time on it.
D．As the author trusted nobody but Super.
解析 细节理解题。其次段其次句话的“stating that I spent too much time with him”说明作者的伴侣们感到嫉妒的缘由是由于他花在Super身上的时间太多了。
答案 C
38．What side of the author matters a lot to Super according to him?
A．His salary and his family member.
B．His success in his work and life.
C．His looks and his clothes.

答案 A
B
The policeman moved up the avenue impressively.It was barely 10 o'clock at night，but the chilly wind with rain had kept people out of the streets.
The policeman suddenly slowed his walk.In the doorway of a darkened store a man leaned，with an unlighted cigar in his mouth.As the policeman walked up to him the man spoke up quickly.
“It's all right，officer，”he said，“I'm just waiting for a friend.It's an appointment made twenty years ago.Well，about that long ago there used to be a restaurant where this store stands—‘Big Joe’Brady's restaurant.”
“Until five years ago，”said the policeman.“It was torn down then.”
The man in the doorway struck a match and lit his cigar.The light showed a pale，squarejawed face with keen eyes，and a little white scar near his right eyebrow.His scarf pin was a large diamond.
“Twenty years ago tonight，”said the man，“I dined here at ‘Big Joe’Brady's with Jimmy Wells，my best friend，and the finest guy in the world.He and I were raised here in New York，just like two brothers，together.I was eighteen and Jimmy was twenty.The next morning I was to start for the West to make my fortune.You couldn't have dragged Jimmy out of New York；he thought it was the only place on earth.Well，we agreed that night that we would meet here again exactly twenty years from that date and time，no matter what our conditions might be or from what distance we might have to come.We figured that in twenty years each of us ought to have our fortunes made，whatever they were going to be.”
“It sounds pretty interesting，” said the policeman.“Rather a long time between meets，though，it seems to me.Haven't you heard from your friend since you left？”
“Well，yes，for a time we corresponded，” said the other.“But after a year or two we lost track of each other.Yet I know Jimmy will meet me here if he's alive，for he always was the truest guy in the world.He'll never forget.I came a thousand miles to stand in this door tonight，and it's worth it if my old partner turns up.”
The policeman twirled his club (警棍) and took a step or two，saying：“I'll be on my way.Hope your friend comes around all right.”
“I'll give him half an hour at least.If Jimmy is alive he'll be here by that time.So long，officer.”
“Goodnight，sir，” the policeman went away.
The man who had come a thousand miles to fill an appointment with the friend of his youth，smoked his cigar and waited.
About twenty minutes he waited，and then a tall man in a long overcoat，with collar turned up to his ears，hurried across from the opposite side of the street.He went directly to the waiting man.
“Is that you，Bob？” he asked，doubtfully.
“Is that you，Jimmy Wells？” cried the man in the door.
“Bless my heart！” exclaimed the new arrival，grasping both the other's hands with his own.“It's Bob，sure as fate.I was certain I'd find you here.Well，twenty years is a long time.”
“You've changed lots，Jimmy.I never thought you were so tall by two or three inches.”
“Oh，I grew a bit after I was twenty.Come on，Bob；we'll go around to a place I know of，and have a good long talk about old times.”
The two men started up the street，arm in arm.The man from the West，his egotism (自负) enlarged by success，was beginning to outline the history of his career.The other，hidden in his overcoat，listened with interest.
At the corner stood a drugstore，brilliant with electric lights.When they came in，each of them turned to gaze upon the other's face.
The man from the Wes
