第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
Both my parents came from towns in Mexico. Then I was born in El Paso，Texas，and when I was four，my family moved to a housing project in East Los Angeles.
Even though we struggled to make ends meet，my parents stressed to me and my four brothers and sisters how fortunate we were to live in a great country with limitless opportunities. They influenced us with the concepts of family，faith and nationalism.
I got my first real job when I was ten. My dad injured his back working in a cardboard box factory and was retrained as a hairstylist .He rented space in a little shopping mall and gave his shop the fancy name of Mr Ben’s Coiffure.
The owner of the shopping center gave Dad a discount on his rent for cleaning the parking lot three nights a week，which meant getting up at 3 a．m.. To pick up rubbish，Dad used a little machine that looked like a lawn mower. Mom and I emptied garbage cans and picked up litter by hand. It took two to three hours to clean the lot .I’d sleep in the car on the way home.
I did this for two years，but the lessons I learned have lasted a lifetime. I acquired discipline and a strong work ethic (道德)，and learned at an early age the importance of balancing life’s competing interests—in my case，school，homework and a job .This really helped during my senior year of a high school，when I worked 40 hours a week flipping burgers at a fast food joint while taking a full load of college preparation courses.
The hard work paid off. I attended the US Military Academy and went on to receive graduate degrees in law and business from Harvard .Later，I joined a big Los Angeles law firm and was elected to the California State Assembly (州议会)．In these jobs and in everything else I’ve done，I have never forgotten those nights in the parking lot. The experience taught me that there is dignity in all work and that if people are working to provide for themselves and their families that is something we should honor.
56．Before my father got injured，we________.
A．didn’t like living in the USA
B．lived a poor but happy life
C．were lucky to move to the USA
D．had many ways to make money
57．When he recovered，to make a living my father________.
A．ran a small shopping mall B．did a part-time job
C．worked as a barber D．became a street cleaner
58．Working in the parking lot for two years had taught me________.
A．how to obey school discipline
B．how to do two things well at a time
C．that discipline and work were of equal value
D．that I must do as many things as possible at a time
59．The author tells us in the last paragraph that we should be proud of those who________.
A．have done all kinds of jobs
B．are cleaning the parking lot
C．have achieved a lot in their lives
D．are bearing their responsibilities
B
I am trying to muster (鼓起) the courage to toss_ away my mobile phone to enjoy a more peaceful and ring free life.
Can you imagine not having your mobile phone？In our high-tech，in a hurry age，a cell free life is a hard concept to swallow .Our mobile phones can now access the Internet，and many people feel the need to express their every thought on their blog pages. If I gave up my cellphone，people would think I was mad.
I wish I had the strength to toss away my technology. I have an office phone，a home phone，an email and if people want to contact me，they can. If I’m out，people can leave a message .Do they really need to find me？However，I’m a bit like Frodo in the movie Lord of the Rings .The power of the ring is too strong and I can’t let it go.
Mobile phones have become necessary tools in our busy life. For most people，they hold all contacts and many of us don’t write up address books any more. The latest phones carry our music，pictures，movies and everything else. We feel lost without this device and when we do misplace it，we feel cut off from our fellow.
“Where have you been？” said a friend，who saw me a week after I lost my cellphone，“I tried calling you，but you disappeared .You disappeared off the face of the Earth.” See，when you don’t have a mobile phone，you don’t exist.
I’m not really going to toss my mobile phone away，in fact. We humans are such social animals and mobile phones serve us well .So in 2011.，I’ve decided not to serve my mobile phone. Like all machines，I can always turn it off.
60．What does the underlined phrase “toss away” mean?
A．give away B．get away C．break away D．throw away
61．The writer mentions Frodo to________.
A．show it is difficult to get rid of the mobile phone
B．show how much he likes Frodo
C．suggest a cellfree life is what he wants
D．introduce a film character to us
62．What do we know about mobile phones in the 4th paragraph?
A．Mobile phones can do anything for us.
B．Mobile phones have become very important in our life.
C．We could not live without mobile phones.
D．We would be cut off by our fellow without mobile phones.
63．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．The writer is not really going to toss his mobile phone away.
B．When you don’t have a mobile phone，you don’t exist.
C．The writer decides not to serve his mobile phone.
D．We humans can control ourselves and machines.
C

An Australian researcher is urging parents to load up their teenager’s backpack and make them walk to school.
Professor Leon Straker says students who walk or cycle to school are less likely to have back and neck pain. But the study of 1,202 Western Australian 14yearold found that 72% of students travelled to school by car or bus. Straker says the study suggests walking or cycling while carrying a schoolbag helps improve trunk (躯干) and spinal (脊柱的) muscle strength.
This helps reduce back pain because greater muscle strength improves support for the back during load carrying .Despite advocating that parents get their children moving，Straker warns bag load should not exceed (超过) 15% of body weight.
Straker says the study also stresses that neck pain is as common as back pain among young teenagers. This is an area that has been largely ignored，he says，but can be an important indicator of neck pain into adulthood.
For the study，students were asked a series of questions such as how long they carried their bags for，how they carried their schoolbags，the method of travel，and their perceptions about the bag’s weight.
Straker says about half of all participants experienced back and n
