Ⅳ、阅读理解（20×2’=40’）
A
Switzerland is famous for its watches. However, this country didn’t invent the watch. It was the British who did it. Here is a story of how the watch was brought to Switzerland.
Many years ago, an Englishman was traveling to Italy, On his way he stopped in a small town in South Switzerland. This Englishman traveled in a carriage inside which there was a carriage watch. This was the earliest kind of watch. A native shop assistant happened to see the watch. He wondered what it was and asked the Englishman about it, “It is a carriage watch,” said the man. “This machine tells the time but now it isn’t working.”
At once the shop assistant offered to try to repair it. So the traveler handed him the watch. The assistant was a very wise man. So it was not surprising that he managed to repair it. He even remembered how it was made. As soon as the traveler had gone on his journey, he made a watch exactly the same type.
Thus the watch-making was started in Switzerland. Today Swiss watches are sold in stores all over the world.

Get valuable preparation for college with an overseas academic （学院的）experience at the following UK institutions（机构）:
University of the Arts London
University of the Arts London is made up of five world well-known colleges of art, design and communication. Together, they offer a huge range of summer schools, lasting between 3 days and 12 weeks long, some of which are specially designed for 16-to-18-year olds.

A surprising number of students will do anything to make the grade. What’s behind this epidemic （流行病）？
There’s plenty to suggest that academic cheating is an epidemic in the country’s high schools and colleges. Consider a few examples: nine students at the University of Maryland were caught receiving text-messaged answers on their cell phones during an exam; a Texas teen was charged with selling stolen test answers --- by illegally affixing a decoding device （解密仪器）to a teacher’s computer ---to fellow students; seven Kansas State students in one class were charged with plagiarizing （抄袭）papers from the Internet.
Beyond the above examples, experts point to a lot of information, much of which is from students themselves, which shows cheating is common. A report showed 70 percent of the students at 60 colleges admitted to some cheating the previous year; one in four admitted to engaging in serious cheating (copying from another student, using hidden notes, or helping someone else cheat).
A recent Gallup survey proved those findings. Polling one group of 13-to 17-year-olds in 2003 and another in 2004, Gallup reported that 65 percent cite “a great deal” or “a fair amount” of cheating in their schools. About half said they’d cheated on a test at some point.
Cheating isn’t new. As long as there have been rules, there have been people intent on breaking them. What’s surprising now is how widespread and shameless the practice has become.
“Before, people who cheated were in the minority, and they kept it a secret, even from their friends,” he says. “Now they are in the majority, and they are bold about it. Today, if you ask kids about cheating, you will get such thoughtful but disrespectful attitudes that the statistics are almost unimportant.”
Kansas State professor Phil Anderson agrees: “Many of our students have the attitude of ‘I’ll do whatever I have to do to get ahead’. It’s endemic.”
54. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Nowadays cheating in exams is very common in schools.
B. Rules should be made to stop cheating in exams.
C. Why do students cheat in exams?
D. Cheating is a shameful thing.
55. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．Most students do whatever they can to get good grades.
B．Now students are ashamed of cheating in exams and don’t let others know it.
C．Many students have the wrong attitude towards cheating in exams.
D．Now many students take cheating in exams for granted.
56. The underlined word “affixing” in Paragraph 2 means_____.
A．fastening B．stealing C．changing D．breaking
57. According to the passage, what makes people feel surprised now?
A．Various forms of cheating in exams.
B．Cheating in exams is becoming an epidemic.
C．The technology used by students in cheating.
D．The widespread and shameless cheating in exams.

Not everyone likes organized sports or team sports. If this sounds like you, don’t sweat it. We’re going to talk about what keeps some kids from liking sports. With a few changes, you might find out that there is a sport out there that you could like. But if not, we’ll suggest other fun ways to stay active.
Sometimes, kids feel that they don’t like sorts because they may not understand how to play them or they haven’t had much practice doing them. Sports can seem complicated （复杂的）because of all the rules and special equipment. Even the fields and courts they are played on come in different shapes and sizes and have confusing-looking lines drawn.
People spend many years learning about favorite sports and practicing how to do them well. So don’t feel bad if you don’t know the difference between a “corner kick” and a “goal kick” in the soccer. If you want to learn more about a sport, you might ask your mom or dad about camps or programs that introduce kids to new sports. It may be better than just joining a team that starts playing games right away without much explaining first.
Gym class and intramural (校内的) programs at school also can be way to try new sports. Another way to learn about a sport is to watch instructional videos or DVDs or refer to library books that explain the rules and offer suggestions for kids learning to play it.
If you have an older friend or family member who’s good at a sport, you might ask him or her to help you practice. Some sports are just easy to understand, even if you never want to play on a competitive team. For example, you might play softball or volleyball, just for fun, at a summer picnic.
58. The underlined word “sweat” in the first paragraph means _____.
A. worry about B. work hard at C. practice repeatedly D. have drops of liquid
59. According to Paragraph 2, kids don’t like sports probably because _____.
A. they can’t f
