三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
　　请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
　　Beijing: China is going green．In order to reduce air pollution and oil shortages, carmakers have announced their plans to develop hybrid（混和燃料） vehicles for the Chinese market．
　　The first China made Toyota’s hybrid car Prius hit the road last week．Let’s have a look at the new car．
　　Any vehicle is a hybrid one when it combines two or more sources of power．Hybrid cars use an electric motor with rechargeable batteries and a gasoline engine．
　　A hybrid car has a gasoline engine smaller than the traditional one and an electric motor．The gasoline engine provides 99 percent of the power when the car is cruising（均速行车）．
　　The electric motor provides extra power for running up hills or when extra acceleration（加速度 is needed．
　　Step into a Prius, and turn on the power．The first thing you notice is that it is quieter than a traditional car．At this point, the car’s gasoline engine is dormant．The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24km/h．If you stay at low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no gasoline being used, and no exhaust gas given off．
　　An onboard computer decides when to use the gasoline engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two．If you go over 24km/h, when you step on the gas pedal（油门）, you are telling the computer how fast you want to go．
　　The electric motor recharges automatically when braking．And when driving at a certain speed, the gasoline engine not only powers the car but also recharges the batteries．
　　When you use the brake, the electric motor acts like a generator to produce electricity to recharge the batteries．Batteries will last for around 200,000 miles．
36．When the hybrid car is cruising, ________．
A．only the gasoline engine provides power
B．only the electric motor provides power
C．there is no need to provide power
D．both the gasoline engine and the electric motor provide power
37．What does the underlined word “dormant” mean?
A．Inactive． B．Out of order． C．Working． D．Non-stop．
38．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A．The hybrid car is environment-friendly．
B．The hybrid car is able to get itself recharged．
C．The hybrid car has been made in mass．
D．The hybrid car can decide which power to use．
39．What is the best title of the passage?
A．Two-powered cars B．Green motors for China
C．Cars of saving oil D．Safer motors at present
B
　　It’s wonderful when teenagers’ dreams come true after a lot of hard work．Ban Kim-Moon, foreign minister of the Republic of Korea, knows this only too well．He dreamt of being a diplomat（外交官） from a young age and now the 62-year-old man has become the world’s top diplomat．
　　On October 9, 2006, UN Security Council appointed Ban to take the place of Secretary General Kofi Annan．In January, 2007, he became the first Asian to take the post in 35 years．
　　Born from a poor family in ROK’s Chungju, young Ban showed early talent at languages．In his Senior 1 year he wrote an English book to help his classmates study．At 18 Ban won the first prize in an English-speaking competition．This allowed him to travel to Washington and meet former US President John F．Kennedy．“This was the moment when my dream began,” said Ban．
　　Ever since then Ban worked hard to keep his dream alive．After graduating from the top-ranking Seoul National University, he joined the foreign ministry and became a most industrious（勤奋的） worker．In 2004 he became the top diplomat in the ROK．
Ban’s down-to-earth efforts also gave him the ability to get along with everyone．After being a diplomat for 36 years, he made many friends but no enemies．
　　But critics think his gentleness might make him ready to give in．They doubt whether he can take a strong stand on burning issues．
　　As the DPRK announced a successful nuclear test on October 9, 2006, experts said the UN’s new boss would be challenged by his first tough task．But Ban, who played a leading role in past nuclear talks with the DPRK, seems to have his own ideas．
　　“________ I understand the power of Tai Chi（太极） well,” said Ban．He’s ready to travel to Pyongyang to talk its leaders into giving up nuclear weapons．
　　“Ban has a typical oriental style, mild but determined,” says Yoon Young-Kwan, former foreign minister of the ROK．“He may look soft from the outside, but inside he has strong views．”
40．Ban Kim-Moon was allowed to meet former US President John F．Kennedy because ________．
A．he dreamt of being a diplomat B．his English was excellent
C．he wrote an English book D．he was a most industrious worker
41．Which of the following words can NOT be used to describe Ban Kim-Moon?

　　Tattoos（纹身）and body piercings（穿洞）have moved up on the trend list in recent years．Around Western schools lots of teens are sporting new holes and flesh ink．Like all other subjects, we’ll surely be faced with such situation．To get a better view of what has happened in the West, let’s sit down and hear what they say．
　　Kerstin Otto from Washington:
　　The hotter it gets and the more layers of clothing disappear, the more tattoos and piercings appear on various places of the human body．I wouldn’t be caught dead with a snake tattooed on my ankle or with a piece of metal stuck in my belly button．
　　Erin from Indiana:
　　I think body piercing is cool．In most situations, you don’t really have to worry about it getting torn out．I go to Noblesville High School．I am a sophomore （that is the 10th grade）．Body piercing can be cool, only if it is not taken to too much of an extent．I would not want to get my nose pierced, just because I think I’ll look bad．But that is my personal opinion．I guess that type of thing is a cultural difference．
　　Tiara from Indiana:
　　I personally think body piercing is sickening．If there were supposed to be holes in your body, you would have been born with them．I do, however, think that ear piercing is not wrong．There is a difference between ear piercing and belly button piercing．Ear piercing is not nearly as dangerous．I would be sick if someone stuck a needle in my belly button．
　　Lee from Illinois:
　　Hi! I live in Illinois．I am 23．I have 12 tattoos and three piercings．I love my tattoos and consider myself an art collector．You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs-up on my art work．People on the street stop me to look at that on my leg．Most of them don’t know what it is．They just think the work itself is great．
　　Subotai from California:
　　I’m not prohibitive（禁止）of self-expression, but when I see high school students getting these piercings, I really wonder．In some cases, the drive is deeper and darker than mere fashion．A friend of mine tried piercing her own tongue with a safety pin．It got infected and she had a tongue the size of a cow’s．
　　Nagib from Washington:
　　I wanted an earring．My friends had them and it looked like a cool thing．I wanted to get a nose ring, but my mom wouldn’t let me．Now I’m glad I didn’t get it．I just wanted a little stud, but I wouldn’t have looked good with it．
　　Jackson from Ohio:
　　I don’t think it’s wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything —I think that’s ridiculous．People who get the big dragons that cover your whole body—I don’t think that’s necessary．When I see naked chicks on guys, I think, “You have no respect for women．”
　　Brittney from New York:
　　You don’t want to do stuff to your body．You don’t need to do that because you were made perfect．You don’t need to add piercings．If it will make you feel beautiful and you really feel like you need to do it for yourself, then okay．If it really makes a big difference impacting your self-esteem and how you are towards others, then do it．But otherwise, don’t mess with what you got．Maybe you should try something more substantial（充实的）to find beauty in yourself．
43．Who is wholeheartedly lost in tattoos and piercing?
A．Tiara． B．Erin． C．Nagib． D．Lee．
44．Who doesn’t think tattoos and piercing are beautiful?
A．Jackson． B．Brittney． C．Tiara． D．Nagib．
45．We can conclude that ________．
A．tattoos and piercing are a new kind of elegant art
B．all the teachers in the West are in favor of tattoos and pie cing
C．everything is changeable with time going on
D．it is necessary to live with all different views of beauty

C．Young People’s Different Curiosities
D．A Great Anxiety About Young People
D
　　Wild animals have no place in the 21st century．Some people think that preventing these wild animals from dying out is a waste of resource．To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
　　Biological diversity（多样性） has never been so threatened as it is today as a result of the process of human civilization．The various forms of pressure created by human activity have destroyed natural balance, led to the deterioration（恶化） of natural habitats, the rarity, even disappearance, of a number of plant and animal species．
　　With the pace of civilization increasing, more and more people, taking more space, needing to use more natural resources, engaging in ever-growing consumption（消费）, cause severe deterioration on the habitats of animals．An increasing number of people come to realize that the disappearance of animals
