第二部分 阅读理解（满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
I entered high school having read hundreds of books. But I was not a good reader. Merely bookish, I lacked a point of view when I read. Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, ideas, themes-anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a "complicated idea" until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony (嘲讽)or its very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times. (How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?)
There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the "hundred most important books of Western Civilization." "More than anything else in my life, "the professor told the reporter with finality," these books have made me all that I am." That was the kind of words I couldn't ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato's The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition (迷信)of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by me time I reached the last word, pleased, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.
1、On heating the teacher's suggestion of reading, the writer thought .
A．one must read as many books as possible
B．a student should not have a complicated idea
C．it was impossible for one to read two thousand books
D．students ought to make a list of the books they had read
2、The underlined phrase "with finality" probably means .
A．firmly B．clearly
C．proudly D．pleasantly
3、The writer's purpose in mentioning The Republic is to .
A．explain why it was included in the list
B．describe why he seriously crossed it off the list
C．show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understand
D．prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word
4、The writer provides two book lists to .
A．show how he developed his point of view
B．tell his reading experience at high school
C．introduce the two persons' reading methods
D．explain that he read many books at high school

B
Dear Koko,
I’ve learned about you from my amazing teacher. I think it’s fun that you can communicate with us humans by using the sign language. I’ve spent a lot of time watching you in different videos and love you from the bottom of my heart.
It’s heartbreaking to learn about all of the cruel things done to gorillas (大猩猩). In Africa, for example, the killers use guns to kill your fellows for meat. They don’t understand the influence their actions are having on gorillas. Another thing is the loss of gorillas’ natural home, which is caused by the improved infrastructure such as building roads and airports. When we cut down trees, you become homeless. We take away your shelter and sources of food, leaving you with very little chance of survival.
Some of my classmates are writing to the relevant departments about these serious problems. Hopefully these letters will make a difference during your lifetime. Over the past three months, my class has been researching on gorillas, and I’ve learned so many things. For example, I’ve learned that you have a lot of feelings similar to mine and you are always so careful with everything you do. I think that you are really worth saving.
We’ve come up with many ideas to help you and your fellows. One of the best ideas is to communicate with the President of the World Bank and have him give more financial support to the organizations for gorillas. Another idea is to make public laws on the killers. I also think we need to keep educating people about gorillas.
I love writing to you and hope you can understand how important you’ve become to our class. Would it be too much to ask for a return letter?
Mike

A．The problems gorillas face at present.

A．gorillas should be protected in nature reserves
B．killers for gorillas should be legally responsible

When I was young, I was terribly poor in the Chinese、 Be afraid of expressing myself was one of the reasons that I rarely did well in school、 Once I failed in a mid-term exam、 When I got the papers, I realized things could have been better if I listened to the teacher much more attentive、 So I turned to my teacher for helps and he told me, “Where there is a will, there is a way、 If we are devoted to learning Chinese, you’ll make it、” I couldn’t agree much、 From then on, I began to work harder、 Out of my expect, I made great progress soon、 Today, Chinese is where my strength lies、 And I’m grateful for my Chinese teacher、45
