第二部分 阅读理解（满分40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。
21．（6分） “Tomorrow is another day” — this line has impressed various people at various times. It’s now 70 years after it appeared in the film, but it still seems to hold its power especially during an economic downturn.
The phrase comes from a film adaptation of Margaret Mitchell’s successful 1936 novel Gone With the Wind. It’s set in the American South and tells the story of a strong heroine, Scarlett O’ Hara, who struggles to find love during the Civil War and, afterwards, of her strength in surviving the war and its hardships.
Love story
In a moment of despair, Scarlett finally realizes that her love belongs to Rhett Butler. For many audiences, it is the theme of love and struggle that has kept the movie alive. While the burning of Atlanta might seem irrelevant (不相关的) to today’s viewers, the timeless theme of love keeps its ability to touch people.
With a promise to her lover still in her mind, Scarlett chooses to stay in the midst of war and take care of Melanie. But her heart is broken when Rhett just walks away, leaving the woman that he once loved with cruel words, “Frankly, dear, I don’t give a damn.” (毫不在乎)
Great epic (史诗)
The film shows the love-hate relationship of these characters, but also American history, the fall of the Confederacy and the following period of Reconstruction in the South. The background made this film a true classic in the epic genre.
When the film opened after World War II, French viewers loved it, and it reminded them of their fight against the Nazis. In 1940 Shanghai, during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (侵略), people stood in line for hours to watch this film, and saw the same suffering they were having as well as the hope and possibility of building a new homeland from the ruins. Each nationality could identify with the story and see it as a victory. In fact, Gone With the Wind never lost its charm and ability to inspire and amaze.
Biggest of all time
The film had five directors, 15-plus screenwriters, and an unexpected $3.9 million budget. The film brought in $200 million, which makes it the biggest selling film of all times in North America. It also won 10 Academy awards in 1940.
1、The underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refers to ______.
A．the novel Gone with the Wind
B．“tomorrow is another day”
C．the movie Gone with the Wind
D．the Academy Award
2、The text is written mainly to ______.
A．celebrate the anniversary of Margaret Mitchell
B．introduce how the film was directed and filmed
C．throw light on (阐述) the charm of the movie “Gone with the Wind”
D．inspire people to struggle the economic downturn
3、It can be concluded that Scarlett O’ Hara is ______.
A．optimistic and lucky
B．childish and realistic
C．caring and stubborn
D．strong-minded and persistent (坚毅的)
4、The passage mentions Shanghai in order to ______.
A．prove that the background of the movie touched viewers
B．describe how popular the movie was at that time
C．point out that Shanghai was a center of entertainment
D．tell us that Chinese were suffering the War then
22．（8分）We all think best when we're well rested． A clear， alert brain allows us to focus， learn and remember information， and to be creative． On the other hand， when we're sleepy， we make more mistakes and are less productive in school and at work． In a report from Psychological Science， researchers at the University of Paris report sleeping between two learning sessions improve your learning．
In this study， 60 French adults were randomly divided into a "sleep" or "wake" group． They all were given 16 French-Swahili words in pairs in random order． After studying a pair for seven seconds ， the Swahili word appeared on a screen and the participants were asked to type the French translation． If they made a mistake， the words appeared again until every word-pair was correctly translated． Twelve hours later， they did it again． The wake group did their tests first in the morning and then in the evening so they had no time to sleep in between． The sleep group members did their first session in the evening and the second came the next morning， after a good night's sleep．
The sleep group members did much better at recalling the correct translations and were quicker to learn when they make a mistake． Both groups were eventually able to learn all the word-pairs but getting some sleep allowed the sleep group to learn in less time and with less effort， A follow-up showed that the sleep group still did better than the wake group a week later and even six months later，
So， if you have to learn something， study and then get a good night's sleep．
1、What is the difference of the two groups' tasks？ ______
A．Who to learn． B．What to learn．
C．How to learn the words． D．When to learn the words．
2、How did the participants deal with a typing mistake they made？ ______
A．Translating the same word again．
B．Leaving the wrong word alone．
C．Asking for a correct answer．
D．Redoing the typing twelve hours later．
3、What does the underlined word it in Para． 2 refer to？ ______
A．Correcting the mistakes．
B．Typing the French translation．
C．Typing the Swahili words．
D．Showing the Swahili word on the screen．
4、Compared to the wake group ， those in the sleep group ______ ．
A．typed more quickly
B．made fewer translation mistakes．
C．learned with more effort．
D．learned all the word- pairs．
23．（8分）One evening, author Neil’s son was angry. Neil had said one of those things that parents say, like “isn’t it time you were in bed.” His son looked up at him, angry and said, “I wish I didn’t have a dad! I wish I had … a goldfish!” That conversation gave birth to Neil’s book, “The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish”. The book is a funny adventure of a son searching for the dad he swapped.
Whether they realize it or not, fathers play an important role in their children’s development. Roland Warren, Director of the National Fatherhood Initiative, says that, “The shape of their dads has a role in the kids’ soul.” I agree. We live in the best of times and the worst of times for fatherhood. We live in the best of times because fathers who are engaged in their child’s life spend more time than fathers of any previous generation. We live in the worst of times because there are still millions of children who continue to miss the regular presence of Dad.
What difference does a dad make? Are they really that important? For the most part, studies have proved clearly that fathers, whether they live with their children or not, matter in the lives of their children. When fathers are present, they provide economic support for their children and caregiving responsibilities. Well-fathered children are shown to be more emotionally intelligent and socially successful as adults. When fathers are absent, their absence may negatively influence children’s academic achievement, general behavioural adjustment and anger management, especially in males.
Yet just being physically present isn’t enough to be a great father. It is important that a dad be warm and emotionally available to his child. Author and researcher, John Gottman, describes this kind of father as an “emotion coaching father”. Emotion coaches are parents who listen to their children’s feelings, see the sharing of feelings as an opportunity for intimacy（亲密）. It is not just the mere presence of fathers that matters, but how they are present. Most children long for and need a loving, devoted and responsible father.
1、The author introduces his topic by ______.
A．presenting the results of studies B．telling a story
C．making a comparison D．interviewing some experts
2、What does the author mean in Paragraph 2 by saying “We live in the worst of times … ”?
A．Today’s fathers don’t care about their children’s emotions.
B．Lots of children’s fathers have to work every day.
C．Lots of children’s fathers are absent from their lives.
D．Today’s fathers don’t have care giving responsibilities.
3、According to the text, a well-fathered child is more likely to _______.
A．lose control of anger B．obtain high academic achievement
C．have low emotional intelligence D．have good social skills
4、We can learn from the text that an “emotion coaching father” is a father who ______.
A．gives economic support to his child B．shares his child’s emotions
C．tries to change his child’s emotions D．is always available to his child
24．（8分）5 Secrets of Web Travel Sites
Booking a trip on an online travel site is convenient, but comes with its own set of problems.

1. They know who’s on a Mac and who’s on a PC and who’s going
to spend more.
Last year, US travel research company Orbitz tracked people’s online activities to test out whether Mac users spend more on travel than PC users. On average, Mac users lay out US$20-30 more per night on hotels and go for more stars, according to the Wall Street Journal. As a result, online travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first. To avoid inadvertently paying more, sort results by price.
2. Their software doesn’t always hook up to the hotel’s system.
A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere – but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third-party providers. The middle-man’s software isn’t immune to system errors, so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed.
3. Don’t be fooled by packages: Often, they’re low-end items grouped together.
Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel, a rental car, and tour package all in one click? These deals usually feature travel that no one wants, like flights with multiple layovers. Check the fine print.
4. You could miss out on loyalty points.
Third-party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points. Many hotel loyalty programmes don’t recognize external sites, others award only minimum points and exclude special offers, like double points on hotel stays.
5. Once your trip is purchased, you’re on your own.
An online travel agency can’t provide assistance the same way an agent can if a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard. Basically, when you arrive at the airport or hotel, you’re just another client who booked at the lowest rate.
1、Which of the following is TRUE?
A．Third-party providers can ensure your reservation.
B．Mac users are likely to spend more money than PC users.
C．An online travel agency functions the same as an agent.
D．Packages usually provide travelers with satisfactory programmes.
2、What’s the purpose of the passage?
A．To encourage readers to book a trip on an online travel site.
B．To make an advertisement about several travel sites online.
C．To convince readers not to book a trip on an online travel site.
D．To warn readers of some problems with booking trips online.
25．（10分） Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to
