其次部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40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
Today,roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasn't easy at all. Before 1750, the idea of skating didn't exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin's work was making musical instruments. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.
One day,Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy ball (扮装舞会). He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near,Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
On the night of the party,Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. There was just one problem, Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking into pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin's grand entrance for a long time!

BRITAIN is a popular tourist place. But tours of the country have pros and cons.
Good news
Free museums: No charge for outstanding collections of art and antiquities (古物).
Pop music: Britain is the only country to rival (与……匹敌) the US on this score.
Black cabs: London taxi drivers know where they are going even if there are never enough of them at weekends or night.
Choice of food: Visitors can find everything from Ethiopian to Swedish restaurants.
Fashion: Not only do fashion junkies love deeply and respect highly brand names such as Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen; street styles are justly loved, too.
Bad news
Poor service: “It's part of the image of the place. People can dine out on the rudeness they have experienced,” says Professor Tony Seaton of Luton University's International Tourism Research Center.
Poor public transport: Trains and buses are promised to defeat the keenest tourists, although the overcrowded London tube is inexplicably(无法说明的) popular.
Lack of language: Speaking slowly and clearly may not get many foreign visitors very far, even in the tourist traps.
Rain: Still in the number one complaint.
No airconditioning: So that even splendidly hot summers become as unbearable as the downpours.
Overpriced hotels: The only European country with a higher rate of tax on hotel rooms is Denmark.
Licensing hours: Alcohol is in short supply after 11 p.m. even in 24hour cities.

Still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a mere walk away from your college.
King' s Art Centre
A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.
You could attend a class teaching you how to ‘learn from the masters’ or get more creative with paint — free of charge.
The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.
The Botanic Garden
The Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.
The multibranched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above bluegreen leaves, and is not one to miss.
Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.
The Garden is also a place for wildlifeenthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.
Byron' s Pool
Many stories surround Lord Byron's time as a student of Cambridge University. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. I'm not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.
It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron's Pool. A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don't trust me, then perhaps you'll take it from Virginia Woolf — over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.
29.As is mentioned in the passage, there is a small charge for ________.
A. attending the masters' class
B. working with local artists
C. learning life drawing
D. seeing an exhibition
答案与解析 C 依据King's Art Centre第三段“The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee. ”中心还经营两个生活绘画班,只收取很少的费用。C项正确。
30.“Torch Aloe” and “Venus Flytrap” are ________.
A. common insects B. impressive plants
C. rarelyseen snakes D. wildlifeenthusiasts
答案与解析 B 依据The Botanic Garden下其次、三段可知是两种植物,并不是昆虫、蛇,更不是野生动物爱好者。本题选择B项。
31.We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed ________.
A. to fear pet bears
B. to like walking
C. to be a heavy drinker
D. to finish university in 1805
答案与解析 B 依据Byron's Pool中“He spent a great deal of time walking in the village. ”他花大量时间在村里闲逛 ,可知Byron宠爱闲逛 。B项正确。
32. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Some places for weekend break.
B. A way to become creative in art.
C. The colorful life in the countryside.
D. Unknown stories of Cambridge University.
答案与解析 A 由文章开头的引子及全文内容可知本篇介绍的是几处周末度假去处。A项最佳。
D
