第四部分：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，共30分）
A
The first time I saw Carlos I would never have believed he was going to change my life．I had my arms full of books and I was tearing into the classroom when 1 ran into something solid．It was Carlos. “My God, you’re tall,” he said. Of course, the class began to laugh．Angry, I walked to my seat without a word.
I glanced back to see if Reed Harrington was laughing with the rest．That would be the last straw．But Reed was studying chemistry and did not seem to be aware of anything else．I didn’t know why I considered Reed my friend．Maybe just because he was a good two inches taller than I．Anyway, every time I blew out my birthday candles and made a wish, it was for a date with Reed Harrington.
“Take that seat，” Mr．McCarthy told the cocky newcomer Carlos，pointing to the only empty one，in the back of the room.
Carlos grinned, “But I need a couple of dictionaries.” Again the class laughed, but now they were laughing with Carlos，not at him．He had been here only 10 minutes and already he had them on his side.
It was the school elections that made me think of Carlos again．Reed Harrington was voted president and Carlos vice-president．“How come ?” I kept asking myself, “How come this shrimp who’s only been in town for a little over a month gets to be so popular?”
So that morning，I stopped Carlos and said，“It doesn’t seem to bother you — being short.” He looked up at me, “Of course I mind being short．But there isn’t anything I can do about it．When I realized I was going to have to spend my life in this undersized skin，I just decided to make the best of it and concentrate on being myself.” “You seem to get along great,” I admitted, “But what about me? Nobody wants to date a girl taller than he is.” “The trouble with you is you’re afraid to be yourself．You’re smart．And you could be pretty．In fact, you might be more than pretty.” I felt myself turning red…
56．The author was angry because ________.
A．the class made fun of her B．Carlos was too rude to her
C．she had to carry many books D. Reed Harrington didn’t date her
57．Which of the following about Carlos is NOT TRUE?
A．He was popular. B．He was new in the school.
C．He was shorter than the author. D．He was chosen president in the school elections.
58．We can infer from the passage that ________．
A．Carlos and the author have become good friends B．the author will be more confident
C．Carlos always encouraged the author D．the author was tall
B
The Chinese word “Shanzhai” means a small mountain village, but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes （假货） after “Shanzhai Cellphones” produced by small workshops in southern China became popular in the mainland market over the past two years.
Besides “Shanzhai” has electronic products, there are “Shanzhai” movies, “Shanzhai” stars and even a “Shanzhai” Spring Festival Gala, a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year’s Eve．
“Shanzhai” has become a culture of its own, symbolizing anything that imitates something famous．The phenomenon has caused a public debate over whether it is healthy or sick being a copycat.
In southwestern China’s Chongqing Municipality, a “Shanzhai” version “Bird’s Nest” woven by farmers with bamboo attracts wide attention and the “Shanzhai” version “Water Cube” is popular with tourists too．Both are copies of the famous Olympics buildings in Beijing.
Xie Xizhang, a literature critic, said that taking the “Shanzhai” Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the “Shanzhai” version appears naturally to attract people．“In spite of its poor techniques and operation, ‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological demands of common people and could be a comfort to their minds,” Xie said.
Tian Huiqun, a professor at Beijing Normal University, said that “Shanzhai” culture never copies classic things, only trendy products．In that sense, it’s like a computer virus, multiplying without meaning.
Though controversial, “Shanzhai” culture is becoming a widely accepted phenomenon.
To the mainstream culture, the rise of “Shanzhai” culture is a challenge as well as a motivation, said Xie．Tian said different kinds of cultures developing together is an ideal situation and it is for the public to choose.
59. The Chinese Word “Shanzhai” may have its origin in _________.
A. fake cellphones B. electronic products
C. Spring Festival Gala D. Olympics buildings
60. The underlined word “imitates” is closest in meaning to _______.
A．steals B．copies C．advertises D．cheats
61．According to the passage, “Shanzhai” culture refers to ________.
A．the action that a person imitates famous people B．anything that imitates something famous
C．those similar names to famous brand
D．products with poor techniques and quality
62．We can infer that the mainstream culture ________.
A．will be held back by “Shanzhai” culture
B．will sooner or later be replaced by “Shanzhai”culture
C．may develop faster because of the challenging of “Shanzhai”culture
D．thinks nothing of the challenge of “Shanzhai”culture
C
Jack Benny was one of the most famous names in show business．As a child, Benny learned to play the violin．After finishing his school, he joined the Navy．He continued using his violin to perform for sailors．In one show he was chosen more for his funny jokes than for his skill with the violin．That experience made him believe that his future job was a comedian.
Benny developed a show personality that had all the qualities people dislike．He was known for being so stingy ---- he refused to spend any money unless forced to do so．On his shows Benny often spoke of his appearance, especially his baby blue eyes．As he grew older, he always claimed to be 39 years old．Benny rarely made jokes that hurt other people．Instead, he would let the other actors on the show tell jokes about him.
In real life, he was very giving and he was a person people liked having as their employer．Benny entered the new media of television in 1950．Five years later, he dropped his radio program to spend more time developing his television show．At first his appearances on television were rare．By 1960 the Benny Show was a weekly television program．It continued unt
