第三部分阅读了解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
Every person leaves a footprint．That’s what I learnt when I started to work as a private investigator 10 years ago．People pay restaurant bills with their bank cards，check into hotels or travel around. In every case，they leave a trace．And because of this，I’m able to track them down even when they don’t want to be found．
The first thing I do when I want to find out where someone is staying is to go to the neighborhood where he used to live。It’s human nature to tell stories which is why neighbors will tell me all they know when I ring at their houses．Sometimes，someone even talks about his friend’s dishonesty．Then I produce a pattern of my subject’s life：if he likes to have a holiday in Spain or in Italy, if he prefers two-or-three-star hotels and where he might hide his assets．When I’ve got this life pattern，I start my research．
Nine times out of 10，I find the people I'm looking for．I once investigated a lorry supplier who owed￡500，000 to a subcontractor(分包商)。The subcontractor wanted to find out if it was worth bringing charges against the supplier I found out the supplier had moved assets to his son，who founded a new company offering the same product．It was all done within the law．There was no money to be got from that operation．
However, I asked the son If I could speak to his father and he told me that his parent was on a long holiday in Spain and wouldn’t be back for a while．It didn’t take me long to find out that the father wasn’t in Spain．
I went back to the son and this time he told me that his father might be in Bulgaria, and I found him doing winter sport‘s in a beautiful mountain area．He was living in a big house on a large piece of land he had bought for￡400，000．This was exactly the kind of asset my customer was looking for．
56．We learn from the text that a private investigator is one who ．
A．follows people and reports on what they do
B．helps people start business
C．gives advice to people about the law
D．settles arguments between businesses or companies
57．The underlined word “assets”(in paragraph 2)most probably means ．
A．houses B．family C．identity D．possessions
58．According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE?
A．The author visits the place where his subject used to live in order to find out why he is
dishonest．
B．It’s human nature to share some trouble with others
C．The author usually tracks someone’s bank card first if he wants to find out where the
man is staying．
D．The lorry supplier moved his asset’s to his son in order to prevent paying back the money he owed．
59．We may infer from the text that the subcontractor might
A．bring charges against the lorry supplier’s son
B．give up hope of settling the debt
C．get his money back
D．sell the big house in Bulgaria

B
Why is it that many people who have suffered a major shock，such as divorce or death of a family number, seem to be weaker against a variety of major and minor illness．One common idea among psychologists has been that people could deal with suffering more effectively if they were able to understand and accept it．：Indeed，many expels stress the value of expressing thoughts and feelings connected with upsetting events．
Recently, a team of medical researchers studied the links between describing psychologically painful events and long-term health．In one experiment healthy college students were asked to write about either personally disturbing experiences or ordinary topics over a period of four days．In the months afterwards，students who had chosen to show their inner thoughts and feelings in their writing visited the health center for illness much less often than those who had written about everyday topics．
In an experiment that followed，another group of healthy students were given the four-day writing exercises．Some chose，to write about highly personal and upsetting experiences(including loneliness, problems with family and friends，and health)．When questioned immediately afterwards，they said that they did not feel any better．However，their blood samples taken before and after the experiment showed evidence of an improved resistance to illness．The white cells that fight off bacteria and viruses had increased their reaction and sensitivity to these “invaders'’．This trend continued over the following six weeks，when another blood sample was taken．Individuals who showed the best results were those who wrote about topics that they had actively kept from telling others about．
The researchers suggested that failure to face up to painful experiences earl be a form of stress itself, and increase the possibility of illness．It follows, then，that actively dealing with a major shock makes possible its understanding and acceptance. The answer is not to suffer in silence．It may not always be possible to talk about personal problems，but writing them down wilt help the body to fight disease in the long run．

Beijing—Danny Boyle was in Beijing last week to promote Slumdog Millionaire, the Oscar-winning movie that is currently showing in over 2,000 cinemas across the country.
“It’s a huge honor as not many films get permission,” Boyle said. Only 20 major foreign films are released on the mainland every year, and Slumdog has received the fastest China premiere (首映) of any Oscar-winning film.
The British director talked at length about why be believed the film had been such a hit . it helped, as people want to watch different stories now. it’s not just about money and success,” he said. “ It’s about love in the end. And I think every culture loves that idea.”
Boyle was so impressed by his trip to China that he hadn’t ruled out a return to the country one day to shoot a film.
“When I arrived, we went straight to Tian’anmen Square and it was a wonderful day,” he said. “ When you have city that is full of people and stories like Mumbai, Beijing or Shanghai, it’s just so much excitement and potential for a filmmaker. It’s like a dream come true.”
In fact he was so enamored of China that he planned to be back in the country in June to judge the Shanghai International Film Festival, Tang Lijun, the festival’s general manager, saw Boyle’s experience in crossing cultures as the ideal quality for a person to be president．
“Slumdog Millionaire is a perfect example for the cultural exchange between the East and Western worlds，’’Tang said．
Slumdog is still making waves across the international film community．The movie totaled over $200 million worldwide．One writer in the Wall Street Journal described the as，‘'the world’s first globalized masterpiece．’’
Boyle is keen to focus on how globalization is finally having an effect on cinema and in future potential filmmakers will have to consider the whole world, and not jut their country．
“When I arrived in India I was expecting everyone to be very aware of Britain because the history, but now they are talking about China，Brazil，Indonesia，－the new economics,” Boyle noted．“They aren't talking about Britain. It’s very interesting．”
