第三部分：阅读理解 （共20小题；，每小题2分，满分40分 ）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
American middle school students don’t seem to care that they' re worse at maths than their counterparts (同龄人) in China's Hong Kong and Finland. "I don't need it," my student says. "I'm going to be a basketball star. Or a car mechanic, or a singer. "
Middle school students' maths skills were tested by the International Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. The United States ranked 28th out of 41 countries tested. After all, when was the last time you used algebra (代数)?
But maths isn't just about training Americans to become scientists. It has its own value. It helps you see patterns and develops your logic skills, and it teaches you to concentrate and to separate truth from falsehood. Maths helps you make wise financial decisions, so you can avoid false claims from advertisers, politicians and others. It helps you determine risk. For example, after an airplane crash, studies show that people are more likely to drive than to take a plane in spite of the fact that they are much more likely to be killed or injured while driving. Planes are not like criminals who repeat the same crime over and over. One plane is not more likely to crash just because another plane recently did. In fact, the most dangerous time to drive is probably right after a plane crash because so many people are on the road.
It is not possible to really understand science and the scientific method without understanding maths. A rainbow is even more beautiful and amazing when we understand it.
The precision of maths helps us think in a very special way. How do we bring the learning of maths back to life? I don't have the big answer. I try my best to help pupils find answers to some maths problems. When I can get one to say, "wow, that's great," I feel the joy of a small victory.
56. Some American students don't care about their poor maths results because _________.
A. maths is useless to most people B. they have no interest in maths
C. they think maths has nothing to do with their future D. they don't do well in maths
57. The example in Paragraph 3 is used to show _________.
A. every coin has its two sides B. we should not be cheated by fault facts
C. maths is close to our daily life D. a simple fact shows complicated rules
58. The writer would agree that ________.
A. it's normal that American kids are weak in maths
B. without maths we'll miss much in our life
C. maths is the most important subject at school
D. American kids don't work hard at school
59. This text is most probably written by_______.
A. a student career guide B. a researcher on students' problems
C. a specialist in students' studies D. a maths teacher

B
Driving to a friend’s house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s rooftop. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it is that most city people --- myself included --- usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.
My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.
I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply.
Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We have television,cell phones, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers.
Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought, “Before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. And perhaps write, but not in anger. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touched the moon.”
60. The best title for the passage would be _________.
A. Break away from Modern life B. Touched by the Moon
C. A Bottomless well of Silence D. The Pleasures of Modern Life
61. The writer felt sorry for himself because __________.
A. there was too much pollution.
B. there were too many accidents on the road.
C. he didn’t adapt to modern inventions
D. he failed to see the fullest moon.
62. Modern things are mentioned mainly to ___________.
A. show that the writer likes city life very much.
B. explain that people have less chances to enjoy nature.
C. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life.
D. show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them.
63. The author wrote the passage to __________.
A. show the love for the moonlight.
B. express the feeling of returning to nature.
C. advise modern people to learn to live.
D. want to communicate longing for modern life.

Four Simple Keys to Transform Your Life
The Power of Choice．Every one of us makes countless choices every day．Every choice we make has an impact on our lives．Even insignificant choices can affect what we experience and how we feel．When hunger strikes, we can reach for a healthy, nutritious snack, or we can choose the sugar high of junk food．The more important the decision, the greater its effect．For instance, how do I act towards that person who treated me badly? Do I generally choose to be passive, or do I actively set clear intentions and create what I want in my life? Every choice we make, however big or small, affects us in some way．
How Do You Make Choices? If you are interested in living a richer, fuller life, there is a foundation upon which you can base all of your decisions which can make life better not only fo
