第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分,满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
"It hurts me more than you", and "This is for your own good." These are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.
That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy on us. They thought that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators(计算器), turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.
Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we've made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students -- "so passive" -- and wonders what happened. Nothing was demanded of them, she believes. Television, says Klompus, leads to children's passivity. "We're not training kids to work any more," says Klompus. "We're talking about a generation of kids who’ve never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them. Instead of saying 'go look it up', you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid. "
Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It's time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It's time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it's for their own good. It's time to start telling them “No” again.
56. Children are becoming more inactive in study because _______.
A. they watch TV too often
B. they have done too much homework
C. they have to do too many duties
D. teachers are too strict with them
57. To such children as described in the passage _______.
A. it is easier to say no than to say yes
B. neither is easy to say yes nor to say no
C. it is easier to say yes than to say no
D. neither is difficult to say yes nor to say no
58. By the underlined words "permissive period in education" the author means a time _______.
A. when children are allowed to do what they wish to
B. when everything can be taught at school
C. when every child can be educated
D. when children are permitted to receive education

59. The main idea of the passage is that _______.
A. parents should leave their children alone
B. kids should have more activities at school
C. it's time to be more strict with our kids
D. parents should always set a good example to their kids

B
As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it's not easy to change later in life. Financial experts say that every one also has their own belief of how to manage their money. According to our different values, experts put us in three categories. They are: the ant, the cricket and the snail.
◆ The ant — works first
Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don't care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks(股票) with low risk.
◆ The cricket — fun first
The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance(保险).
◆ The snail — lives under pressure
The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans(贷款) from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure they can afford it. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.
60. One’s values may__________.
A. be his ways of managing money
B. be his beliefs about society
C. determine his family and education
D. influence his behavior
61. Mr. Smith always enjoys spending a weekend with his friends, fishing, hunting and playing cards. Moreover, he spends money in a very luxurious way. So, _____.
A. Mr. Smith belongs to the ant type
B. Mr. Smith belongs to the cricket type
C. Mr. Smith belongs to the snail type
D. it’s hard to tell which kind of person Mr. Smith is
62. The writer of the passage seems to be in favor of _______.
A. the ant B. the cricket C. the snail D. none of them
63. According to the passage, the most suitable title would be ______.
A. Spending Nature B. What Comes First C. How to Understand Your Values D. Work and Fun

C
Beijing ---- A recent Chinese blockbuster (轰动的作品) “A World Without Thieves” is based on the experiences of a young migrant worker (民工)carrying 60,000 yuan on a train packed with thieves. But while the image of a warm-hearted but somewhat naive migrant worker may have made film fans chuckle, it’s a sure bet that most of China’s migrant workers are yet to step into a cinema to admire it.
“Forty yuan a ticket? I can’t afford it,” said Shen Jie, a migrant worker at a construction site in Dongzhimen, east Beijing.
Shen found it hard to remember when he last watched a film, or what it was about. “It must be 10 years ago,” he said.
Though they are the builders of the nation’s theaters and cinemas, a limited cultural life is common among China’s 120 million migrant workers.
Shen arrived from East China’s Zhejiang Province in1991. Life was better then; money seemed to come more easily. “Now, as more and more workers are rushing to the capital, it’s too hard to earn money, and none of us dare think about watching films,” he said.
For many like Shen, the dream is earning enough to pay for their children’s education so they can find jobs in the cities and say goodbye to the hardships of rural life forever. This drives them to work hard and save as much as possible.
With a monthly salary of less than 500 yuan, Shen has to send money home to his little son and silver-haired parents.
In Shen’s small dormitory, which he shares with seven other co-workers, there is a well-thumbed copy of a magazine published in 1998.
A recent survey by local media revealed that 80 percent of migrant workers spent their spare time sleeping and chatting because of exhaust and a lack of income. The same survey found that 47 percent of migrant workers have to work for more than 10 hours a day. Around 40 percent do not even possess a book, and nearly 60 percent say they are dissatisfied with their cultural life.
Like many of Shen’s co-workers, reading newspapers and hanging out in Beijing’s streets provide evening entertainment.
