Ⅲ.阅读理解(每小题2分，共40分)
阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
The human nose has given to the language of the world many interesting expressions. Of course this is not surprising. Without the nose we could not breathe or smell. It is the part of the face that gives a person special character. Cyrano De Bergerac said that a large nose showed a great man—brave, polite, manly, and bright. A famous woman poet wished that she had two noses to smell a rose. Blaise Pascal, a French philosopher(哲学家)made an interesting comment about Cleopatra's nose. “If it had been shorter，”he said，“it would have changed the whole face of the world.”Historically, man's nose has had an important role in his imagination. Man has referred to the nose in many ways to express his feelings. Expressions about the nose refer to human weakness, anger, pride, jealousy(嫉妒)and revenge(报复). In English there are a number of phrases about the nose. For example, “To_hold_up_one's_nose”expresses a basic human feeling—pride. People can hold up their noses at people, things and places. The phrases, to be led around by the nose, shows man's weakness. A person who is led around by the nose lets other people control him. On the other hand, a person who follows his nose, lets his instinct guide him.
For the human emotion of rejection, the phrase to_have_one's_nose_put_out_of_joint is very descriptive. The expression applies to persons who have been turned aside because of a competitor. Their pride is hurt and they feel rejected. This expression is not new. It was used by Erasmus in 1542.
This is only a sampling of expressions in English dealing with the nose. There are a number of others. However, it should be as plain as the nose on your face that the nose is more than an organ for breathing and smelling!
36．This passage is about________.
A．the human nose, an organ for breathing and smelling
B．the nose giving various expressions
C．a woman poet's wish was to have two noses
D．interesting comments made on Cleopatra's nose
答案：B　主旨大意题。文章主要涉及了与人体器官鼻子相关的短语。
37．According to Blaise Pascal, “Cleopatra's nose”________．
A．did change the whole face of the world
B．should be shorter
C．represents her powerful character
D．had been cut shorter
答案：C
38．“To hold up one's nose”is an expression of________.
A．contempt B．revenge
C．anger D．jealousy
答案：A　虽然不知道A项的含义；但是可以根据文章中的pride排除掉其他三个答案。
39．A man who is described as“to have one's nose put out of joint”________．
A．is happy
B．wants to sell a flower
C．is ill
D．feels hurt and rejected
答案：D　根据倒数第二段第三句“Their pride is hurt and they feel rejected.”可以很容易找出答案。
B
Tears are nature's way making us feel comfortable. When our eyes are made uncomfortable by some small pieces of pollution, or when we are cutting onions, or when we are exhausted and“red­eyes”from overwork and late hours, tears from in our eyes to clean and refresh them.
Tears are also a sign of strong emotion. We cry when we are sad and we cry when we are happy.
And tears seem to be uniqueness(唯一)of human. We know that animals also experience emotion—fear, pleasure, loneliness—but they do not shed(流)tears. From this we can conclude that tears are closely related to the emotional and biological make­up of the human species.
Biologically speaking, tears are actually drops of saline fluid, which is a little bit salty, produced by a gland(腺)in the body. Because salt is an important component, tears may actually constitute the most conclusive evidence that the human animals are the end product of a long evolutionary(进化的)process that began in the sea.
And it is clear that, in addition to(除了)the emotional benefits, the shedding of tears has a specific biological function as well. Through tears, we can eliminate from our body certain chemicals which build up in response to stress and cerate a chemical imbalance in the body. Crying actually makes us feel better by correcting that imbalance and making us feel good again. And thus the emotional and the biological functions of tears merge(合并)into one and make us even more“human”than we would otherwise be.
40．According to the passage, human beings may have originated in________.
A．the sea B．the salt
C．chemicals D．animals
答案：A　细节题。文章第四段最后：眼泪是咸的可能是人类从大海里进化而来的有力证据。
41．Which of the following is NOT a function of tears?
A．Biological. B．Emotional.
C．Political. D．Chemical.
答案：C　文章中没有涉及眼泪与政治有什么关系。
42．According to the article, which of the following is unique to humans?
A．The feeling of loneliness.
B．The state of feeling good.
C．The ability to shed tears.
D．The feeling of fear.
答案：C　文章第三段首句。
43．The word“aliminate”probably means________.
A．add B．produce
C．replace D．remove
答案：D　该句含义为：通过眼泪，我们可以消除身体中由于紧张而产生的一种化学物质。
C
In early October, thousands of people around the globe stepped outside to gaze at their local night sky. As part of an event called the Great World Wide Star Count, adults and kids of looked for one of two constellations(星群)—Cygnus in the Northern Hemisphere and Sagittarius in the Southern Hemisphere. The observers recorded how many stars they saw and how bright the stars were, and then posted their results online.
The Star Count was part of global effort to help scientists learn more about how light pollution affects our view of the night sky. Whether participants saw thousands of stars—or just a dozen—depended a lot on whether they were surrounded by darkness or by twinkling city lights.
Dark spots on the map, above, show the locations of people who partcipated in the first annual Great Worldwide Star Count. Over 2 weeks, people in 64 countries made 6,624 observations.
On a clear night, with no clouds, moonlight, or artificial lights to block the view, people can see more than 14,000 stars in the sky, but when people are surrounded by city lights they're lucky to see 150 stars.
If you've ever driven toward a big city at night and seen its glow from afar, you're witnessed light pollution. It occurs when light from streetlights, office buildings, signs, and other sources streams into space and illuminates the night sky. This light makes many stars invisiable to people on Earth.
Dust and particles of pollution from factories and industries worsen the effects of light pollution. When these particles float into the atmosphere, light ricochets(跳飞)off of them and scatters even more.
Light pollution doesn't fly affect star visibility. It can harm wildlife too. Scientists don't entirely understand how animals navigate at night, but it's clear that artificial light can attract them, making them go off course. There's increasing evidence, for example, that migrating birds use sunsets and sunrises to help find their way.
44．Why did do many people look at the local sky?
A．To enjoy the beauty of the stars.
B．To develop their interest in Astronomy.
C．To help scientists do a research on light pollution.
D．To get the exact number of star in the sky.
答案：C　根据第二段首句“The Star Count was part of global effort to help scientists learn more about how light pollution affects our view of the night sky.”判断。
45．When people are surrounded by artificial lights, ________.
A．they can find more stars in the sky
B．the stars might appear more clearly
C．the stars seem to be bigger
D．they can find far fewer stars
答案：D　正常情况下人们能看到14,000颗星星，但是在有人造光时只能看到150颗，所以要少得多。
46．What does the word“illuminates”probably means in this passage?
A．make...bright
B．make...invisible
C．make...beautiful
D．make...clear
答案：A　根据倒数第三段第二句“It occurs when light from streelights, office buildings, signs, and other sources streams into space.”可以推测出，从“这些光进入到太空中”看，这些光使得太空“明亮了”。
47．How does light pollution affect birds?
A．It does great harm to their eyes at night.
B．It mistakes them the way when they migrate.
C．It can enable them to see their routes clearly.
D．It can make them find their way easily.
答案：B　人造光吸引鸟类，使它们偏离飞行路线，因为它们迁徙时靠的是日出和日落，所以说“人造光能误导它们迁徙的路线”。
48．According to the maps above, which continent has fewest participants in the Star Count?
A．North America.
B．Australia.
C．South America.
D．Africa.
答案：D　根据上面地图中的黑点可以看出非洲参加的人数最少。

Dr Wiseman started“the laugh lab”project in September 2001. It is the largest study of humour. Participants(参加者)are invited to log onto the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favourite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.
The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the world's funniest joke. But there is aslo a serious purpose. The researchers wnat to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.
This is a subject that has long interested psychologists(心理学家)and philosophers(哲学家). Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughi
