My friend Jenny from Germany spent some time traveling in India. She 36 the country so much that she always got attracted to it. While there, she stayed with Leela, her friend who was Indian. 37 the gazes that she got as a foreigner, Jenny always had language problems.

第三部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)
第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Robert Owen was born in Wales in 1771. At the age of ten he went to work. His employer had a large private library so Owen was able to educate himself. He read a lot in his spare time and at nineteen he was given the job of superintendent(监工) at a Manchester cotton mill. He was so successful there that he persuaded his employer to buy the New Lanark mill in Scotland.
When he arrived at New Lanark it was a dirty little town with a population of 2,000 people. Nobody paid any attention to the workers' houses or their children's education. The conditions in the factories were very bad. There was a lot of crime and the men spent most of their wages on alcoholic drinks.
Owen improved the houses. He encouraged people to be clean and save money. He opened a shop and sold the workers cheap, well-made goods to help them. He limited the sale of alcoholic drinks. Above all, he fixed his mind on the children's education. In 1816, he opened the first free primary school in Britain.
People came from all over the country to visit Owen's factory. They saw that the workers were healthier and more efficient than in other towns. Their children were better fed and better educated. Owen tried the same experiment in the United States. He bought some land there in 1825,but the community was too far away. He could not keep it under control and lost most of his money.
Owen never stopped fighting for his idea. Above all he believed that people are not born good or bad. He was a practical man and his ideas were practical. "If you give people good working conditions," he thought, "they will work well and, the most important thing of all, if you give them the chance to learn, they will be better people."
56. For Owen, his greatest achievement in New Lanark was _____________.
A. improving worker's houses B. helping people to save money
C. preventing men from getting drunk D. providing the children with a good education
57. From the passage we may infer that Owen was born ___________.
A. into a rich family B. into a noble family
C. into a poor family D. into a middle class family
58. Owen's experiment in the United States failed because _______.
A. he lost all his money B. he did not buy enough land
C. people who visited it were not impressed D. it was too far away for him to organize it properly
59. We may infer form the passage that no children in Britain could enjoy free education until ____.
A. 1771 B. 1816 C. 1825 D. 1860
B
I heard many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching (紧握) at one another’s hands for reassurance.
They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up huddled (聚在一起) round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon (蚕茧) into a larger cocoon.
It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.
But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come – with the people who respect you for who you are. That is the only kind of popularity that really counts.
60. In this passage, the author wants to tell _______.
A. teenagers to try to pursue their real selves B. readers to try to be popular with people around
C. parents to try to control and guide their children D. people to try to understand and respect each other
61. The author disapproves of rebelling teenagers _______.
A. growing away from their parents B. following the popularity trend
C. walking a new way on their own D. turning to their friends for help
62. The phrase “larger cocoon” at the end of the second paragraph refers to _______.
A. the distractive and variable society B. the dazzling music world
C. the parental care and love D. the popularity wave in the society
63. What does the author think of advertisements?
A. Convincing. B. Instructive. C. Influential. D. Authoritative.
C
The Top 4 Lies Girls Hear
1. “You'll never be good at math.”
It's generally accepted that boys are good at math while girls aren't. The fact is that it isn't true—at least, it doesn't have to be.
When girls reach their teens，most of them lose their interest in math. They're trying to be regarded as female(女性)．They want to stay away from things that are boy things, and math is still considered a boy thing. Math class is hard, but if you gave it a chance you could be great at math, especially beacuse you are a girl.
2. “Being skinny is good, and how you diet is your business.”
Lots of web sites tell visitors that losing interest in eating is a beautiful thing. These“skinny is better”sites are lying. Losing interest in eating is a disease, not a fashion statement. It can kill you.
3. “You don't deserve to make as much money as a guy.”
It's said that in 2002 women who work full-time earn about 23 percent less than guys earn. Once you see real women succeeding in cool jobs, you'll truly get that you're worth just as much as—or more than any guys.
4. “Caffeine(咖啡因)will help you study better.”
Caffeinated soft drinks have long been advertised as must haves when you have to work very hard. But if you want to do your body a big favor, you'd better give up caffeine altogether.
64. Why do girls lose their interest in math?
A．Because they don't realize the importance of math.
B．Because math class is too hard for girls.
C．Because they aren't interested in the things which are considered boy things.
D．Because girls are not as clever as boys.
65. The word “skinny” means________.
A. pretty B．strong
C．tall D．slim
66. Supposing in 2002 a man earns $20,000, how much will a woman who doing the same job probably get?
A．$10,000 B．$15,000
C．$20,000 D．$25,000
Which of the statement is NOT true?
A. Girls sometimes can do better than boys in math.
B. Being skinny is good for girls’ health.
C. Girls than earn as much money as boys do.
D. Caffeine can make people feel more excited.
D
Never go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice. If you go shopping for food before lunchtime, you’ll probably buy more than you plan to. Unfortunately, however, just this advice isn’t enough for consumers these days. Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy things at the store. First, you check the weekly newspaper ads. Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In other words, don’t buy anything just because it’s cheaper than usual! “New and Improved!” or “All Natural” on the front of a package influence you. Instead, read the list of ingredients(contents) on the back. Third, compare prices: that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand.
Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages. These products are cheaper because producers don’t spend much money on packing or advertising. The qual
