An idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond．The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.
　　In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools．The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998．Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea  has expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.
　　In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program．As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city．Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at  night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character．
　　The only problem arose in New York ,where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population．This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.
　　Ultinatelas Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process, or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would  not otherwise have shared a word.
24．What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?
　　A．To invite authors to guide readers.
　　B．To encourage people to read and share.
　　C．To involve people in community service.
　　D．To promote the friendship between cities.
25．Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?
　　A．They had little interest in reading.
　　B．They were too busy to read a book.
　　C．They came from many different backgrounds
　　D．They lacked support from the local government
26．According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?
　　A．In large communities with little sense of unity
　　B．In large cities where libraries are far from home
　　C．In medium-sized cities with a diverse population
　　D．In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached
27．According to Nancy, the level of success of the project is judged by
　　A．the careful selection of a proper book
　　B．the growing popularity of the writers
　　C．the number of people who benefit from reading.
　　D．the number of books that each person reads.
C
　　Lisa was running late．Lisa，25，had a lot to do at work，plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown．But as she hurried down the subway stairs， she started to feel uncomfortably warned．By the time she got to the platform，Lisa felt weak and tired--maybe it hadn’t been a good idea to give blood the night before，she thought．She rested herself against a post close to the tracks．
　　Several yards away，Frank，43，and his girlfriend，Jennifer，found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop．They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying．
　　But when he heard the scream，followed by someone yelling，“Oh，my God，she fell in!” Frank didn’t hesitate．He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails．“No! Not you! ”his girlfriend screamed after him．
　　She was right to be alarmed．By the time Frank reached Lisa，he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming．The train was about 20 seconds from the station．
　　It was hard to lift her．She was just out．But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge．That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness，felt herself being pulled along the ground，and saw someone else holding her purse．
　　Lisa thought she’d been robbed．A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head．And she tried to talk but she couldn’t，and that was when she realized how much pain she was in．
　　Police and fire officials soon arrived，and Frank told the story to an officer．Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown—just as he had been seconds after the rescue，which made her think about her reaction at the time．“I saw the train coming and 1 was thinking he was going to die，”she explained．
28．What was the most probable cause for Lisa’s weakness?
　　A．She had run a long way．
　　B．She felt hot in the subway．
　　C．She had done a 1ot of work．
　　D．She had donated blood the night before．
29．Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend?
　　A．Because they would miss their train．
　　B．Because he didn’t see the train coming．
　　C．Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift．
　　D．Because she was afraid the train would kill him．
30． When did Lisa become conscious again?
　　A．When the train was leaving．
　　B．After she was back on the platform．
　　C．After the police and fire officials came．
　　D．When a man was cleaning the blood from her head．
31．The passage is intended to _____________
　　A．warn us of the danger in the subway
　　B．show us how to save people in the subway
　　C．tell us about a subway rescue
　　D．report a traffic accident

D
What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in biotechnology. With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war. Today’s leading killers，such as heart disease，cancer，and aging itself，will become distant memories.
  In discussion of technological changes，the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things，and until recently，scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells，such as those of brain cells，would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100，medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine，made up of the basic building materials of life，will build new brain cells，heart cells，and so on－in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.
  It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence，but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.
32．According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by ________.
A．diseases and aging   B．accidents and war
C．accidents and aging   D．heart disease and war
33．In the author’s opinion，today’s most important advance in technology lies in ________.
A．medicine   B．the Internet     C．brain cells   D．human organs
34．Humans may live longer in the future because ________.
A．heart disease will be far away from us
B．human brains can decide the final death
C．the basic materials of cells will last forever
D．human organs can be repaired by new medicine
35．How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?
A．Over 100 years.        B．More than 120 years.
C．About 150 years.       D．The passage doesn’t tell us.
第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题 2分，满分10分)
Lots of people give you advice on overcoming (克服) fear. ___36__ However, I want to tell you that a world without fear would be more dangerous, less rewarding. So we want to treat fear as a friend. Here are three reasons.
  ___37__ Think about it. Do you get more nervous when you meet the girl (or guy) of your dreams? Which is more fearful, talking to the boss of your company or to some of your friends? ___38__ If you didn’t have fear to guide you, you might not know that! Not so bad, right?
  Next, fear encourages us to take action. Fear is a call to action. In the past, our ancestors (祖先) didn’t run away in fear when they saw a tiger running toward them but tried to kill it for food. Now, most of us don’t face serious danger like hungry tigers every day, but we do face serious bosses or public speaking. So, what can we do? ___39__
    Lastly, fear lets you know you are alive. Why do we like roller coasters (过山车)? ___40__ Same for horror movies.
    So fear can guide you towards what’s important for you and encourage you to take action to improve. Don’t we all need that kind of friend?
A. Don’t fear to be wrong.
B. It frightens us in a mostly safe way.
C. Imagine what life would be like without fear.
D. The first is that fear is an excellent guide to opportunity.
E. They say if you can overcome fear, y
