Directions: There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by fourquestions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
Passage One
Man's story in China began many thousands of years ago.Remains of an early form of man discovered in China, known as Peking Man, indicate that Stone Age men lived in the area as long as 500,000 years ago.During the centuries that followed, their descendants laid the foundations of civilization in China.
Throughout its history, China has been a rich source of inventions. Silk, the compass, tea and porcelain originated there. In addition, they are responsible for the invention of paper and printing.
The Chinese had used ink as early as 1200 B. C., an excellent type which they made from lampblack and which is known in English as India ink or China ink. By the end of the first century A. D., the Chinese had invented paper.
The Chinese also invented printing. Early Chinese printing is called block printing. The printer carved raised characters on a block of wood, wet the surface of the characters with ink, and pressed sheets of paper against them. Printers in the llth century went on to invent movable type of baked clay. The characters of the movable type could be rearranged to form different words and thus be used over and over again. The Chinese alphabet has about 40 thousand characters. Because of the difficulty of producing so many pieces of type, most Chinese printers continued to use block printing.
36. A good synonym for the underlined word "descendants" in paragraph 1 is__________.
A. foreigners
B. following generations

Passage Two
American Blacks experienced a revolution after 1945, a revolution in expectations.Following World War Ⅱ, the steady movement toward first-class citizenship for Black people quickened, with significant actions taking place in courts of law, in voting booths, in restaurants and in the streets of the nation.
A decade of intense civil rights activity was launched in 1954 when the United States Supreme Court declared segregated schools to be unconstitutional.In 1955, Dr.Martin Luther King, Jr.,effectively organized the Blacks of Atlanta, Georgia, in a bus boycott. The boycott lasted two years,and when it was over, Blacks no longer were degraded by being forced to sit or stand in the rear of buses.
In 1960, a group of Black college students decided that they, as well as white persons, had the right to eat at a lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina.This sit-in sparked an aggressive national movement and, in the next few years, thousands of young men and women--Black and White,North and South--overturned local laws and customs that had maintained segregation. Sit-ins, pray-ins, freedom rides, freedom marches and demonstrations to open all schools to Black children took place across the nation.

Passage Three
People often speak of fire as though it were a living creature--It grows, dances, needs oxygen,feeds on whatever it can find, and then dies. And when a forest fire rages out of control, threatening human lives and homes, it must be fought like a "wild animal. " The fight is often desperate, since firefighters' best efforts may be dwarfed by the fury of a large fire. But the fire's own traits can be used against it.
The heated air above a fire rises in a pillar of smoke and burnt gases, pulling fresh air in from the sides to replace it. Firefighters use this fact when they "fight fire with fire. " They start a fire well in front of the one which they are fighting. Instead of traveling on in front of the huge fire, the smaller fire is pulled back toward it by the updrafts of the larger blaze. As it travels back to meet the large fire, the smaller backfire burns away the fuel that the forest fire needs to survive.
Even when a backfire has been well set, however, the fire may still win the struggle. The wind which the firefighters used to help them may now become their enemy. When the backfire meets the main fire, before both die for lack of fuel, there is tremendous flame, great heat and wild winds. A strong gust may blow the fire into the treetops beyond the area, giving the fire new fuel and a new life.
44. This passage focuses on__________.
A. how fires start
B. damage caused by fire
C. the fascination of fire
D. fighting forest fires
45. A backfire is started__________.
A. behind a forest fire
B. ahead of a forest fire

D. all around a forest fire

A. faster than a horse can run
B. in all directions at the same speed
C. in whatever direction the wind is blowing
D. toward the nearest source of fuel
47. In the last paragraph, the writer again refers to the fire as a living creature by saying that it__________.
A. can be blown around by the wind
B. dwarfs man's best efforts
C. heats the air above it
D. may still win the struggle
Passage Four
When Abraham Lincoln was a lawyer in rural Illinois, he and a certain judge in town once got to bantering with one another about horse trading. The upshot of the discussion was that they agreed that the next morning, at nine o'clock, they would meet in front of the general store and make a trade.
Each would bring a horse, unseen by anyone up to that hour. If either backed out of the deal, he would forfeit $25. The money from each man was held by the local banker.
The next morning, at the appointed hour, the Judge, came up the dirt road, leading the sorriest looking specimen of a horse ever seen in those parts of Illinois. The large crowd viewing the spectacle burst out laughing, already knowing that Abe Lincoln was bound to get the worst of the deal. A poorer horse just couldn't exist anywhere and still be walking.
In a few minutes,however,Mr.Lincoln was seen approaching the general store carrying something quite large and bulky on his shoulders. As he drew nearer, the crowd saw what it was, and great shouts and laughter broke out. The shouts and laughter soon broke into a thunderous roar when Mr. Lincoln, looking carefully and seriously over the Judge's animal, set down his sawhorse (鋸木架), and exclaimed, "Well, Judge, this is the first time I ever got the worst of it in a horse trade. "

Shoes are outer coverings for the foot. They have soles, and most have heels. The upper part of most shoes extend no higher than the ankle. Boots are footwear that reach beyond the ankle. People wear shoes to protect their feet from harsh weather, sharp objects, and uncomfortable surfaces. Shoes are also an important part of people's clothing. As a result, fashion often determines the style of shoes that individuals wear. The desire to be fashionable has led to many unusual shoe styles. In the 1300's,many European men wore shoes called crackowes, which had an extremely long toe. From the 1300's to the 1700's, some European women wore shoes with really thick soles causing walking to be virtually impossible without support. Shoes once worn in the Orient were connected to a stilt(高蹺) as high as six inches.
Traditionally, most shoes are made of leather. But many other materials are now used. Including canvas, velvet, and synthetic substances such as plastics. Footwear materials and style vary somewhat,depending on climate, custom, or other differences. Farmers in Netherlands often wear heavy wooden shoes that protect their feet from the damp environment while Japanese wear shoes outside their home but prefer soft slippers at home. In fact, people in some regions often wear foot coverings other than shoes. Some wear sandals during the hot summer and switch to warm boots for the cold winter.
52. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. The history of the shoes.
B. Shoes around the world.
C. The definition of shoes.
D. Shoes and fashion.
53. What can be inferred from the passage about different types of shoes?
A. Boots are defined to be higher than shoes.
B. People in the 1300's to 1700's like to wear uncomfortable shoes.

許多年來，夏威夷的習俗被瞧不起或被忽視。而如今，人們對舊的方式有了新的自豪。孩子們在學習夏威夷語，學習傳統(tǒng)的歌舞。在夏威夷大學，夏威夷島嶼的歷史和過去的文化也有人感興趣了。
到島上來的旅游者想看的也是島嶼伊甸園過去的樣子。每天都有來自大陸的眾多的旅游者進入夏威夷。現(xiàn)代旅游的標志到處都是。火奴魯魯和它的郊區(qū)在30年前是一個擁有250000人口的安靜地方�，F(xiàn)在卻成了擁有800000居民和旅游者的擁擠的地方了。

【解析】
36.后面的“他們的”指的是前面提到的猿人，在他們“以后的世紀中”的人肯定是他們的后人。選項B是正確的。
37.第一段。在早期的人類遺址發(fā)現(xiàn)了人類的遺骸，稱作北京人。選項C是正確的。
38.第三段。要制造如此多的一個個的方塊字很困難，所以，大多數(shù)的中國印刷還是用雕版印刷。選項C是正確的。
39.從中國的猿人到中國的絲綢，再到中國的印刷，顯而易見是講的中國歷史。選項D是正確的。
【原文大意】
中國的人類史開始于數(shù)千年以前。在中國發(fā)現(xiàn)的早期人類是北京人，證明這個地區(qū)的石器時代的人類開始于50萬年前。在這之后的數(shù)世紀以后，他們的后代建立了中國文化。
整個歷史表明，中國有著豐富的發(fā)明。絲綢、指南針、茶以及瓷器都源于此。另外，他們還發(fā)明了紙和印刷術。中國人用墨水的歷史始于公元前1200年。這種墨水用燈黑制成，英國人把它叫印度墨或中國墨。公元l世紀末，中國人發(fā)明了紙。
中國人還發(fā)明了印刷術。早期的中國印刷叫雕版印刷，就是把中國的方塊字刻在木板上，字體突出。把表面用墨浸濕，把紙壓在上面。到11世紀又發(fā)明了活字制版印刷。這種版是用烤制的泥制作的。這種印刷可將方塊字刻重新組合，因此可以反復使用。中文的方塊字大約有4萬，制作這么多的字很困難，因此大多數(shù)的印刷者還沿用雕版印刷。

44.D45.B46.C47.D
【解析】
44.第一段就提到了森林大火，接著談及一種救森林大火的方法，繼而提到徹底滅火的難度。選項D是正確的。其他選項都只是文中涉及的某個部分，過于具體。
45.第二段。In front of the huge fire表明在森林大火的前面。選項B是正確的。
46.第三段。人們可以借助風來滅火，而風也可助長火勢。所以火肯定會受風的影響。選項C是正確的。
47.在第一段，作者提到火如同有生命的造物，人類與火的戰(zhàn)斗就如同與有生命的野獸作戰(zhàn)。最后一段，作為文章的結(jié)尾，作者又提到與野獸般的大火之戰(zhàn)，人類不一定就是勝者。火可能是贏家，似乎火是有生命的。選項D是正確的。
【原文大意】
人們經(jīng)常談論火，似乎它是一個有生命的造物——它成長、跳舞、需要氧氣、以它能找到的東西為食，然后死去。但當森林大火失去控制，威脅著人類的生命和房屋時，人們則必須與這“野獸”般的火戰(zhàn)斗。然而，這種戰(zhàn)斗往往是絕望的。因為大火的憤怒使得消防員們的努力變得相形見絀。但火自身的特點可以用來控制它。
火苗之上的熱浪在煙柱和燃燒的氣體中上升，把新鮮空氣從兩邊拉入然后取代它。不過消防員正是用這個道理“以火治火”。他們在他們正在與之戰(zhàn)斗的火的前面再燃起一把火。這個弱勢的火會被巨大火苗的上升氣流往后拉，而不是在火海的前面往前運動。當它往后退到強勢火時，這個弱勢的逆火會把森林大火賴以生存的燃料燒光。
即便逆火工作做得很好，大火仍可能贏得這場戰(zhàn)斗。消防員本來借以用來幫忙的風此時很有可能成為敵人。當逆火與主火相遇，在兩火都因缺少燃料而死亡之前，會有巨大的火苗、高溫和狂暴的風。一種強有力的爆發(fā)會把火帶到遠離該地區(qū)的樹梢上，給火提供新的燃料和新的生命。 第四篇

48.B49.A50.D51.C
【解析】
48.第一段。兩人決定第二天做一筆馬的交易。選項B是正確的。
49.Neither…nor兩者都不……。從兩個人帶來的馬可以知道，他們二人是在開玩笑，并不是真的做交易。選項A是正確的。
50.兩個人帶來的都不是正經(jīng)的馬。一個是奇丑無比，一個是玩文字游戲，扛來一個在英文拼寫中帶有“馬”字的鋸木架。所以，這篇文章是要引讀者發(fā)笑。選項D是正確的。
51.根據(jù)文章的內(nèi)容，做交易的二人并不是真的做交易，而是在開玩笑。選項C是正確的。
【原文大意】
當亞伯拉罕·林肯在伊利諾伊州的鄉(xiāng)村當律師時，他和鎮(zhèn)上的一個法官相互開玩笑說做一筆馬的交易。雙方討論的結(jié)果是第二天早晨9點鐘在大商店前面完成這筆交易。每個人都必須帶匹馬，這匹馬必須是從來沒有人見過的。如果誰放棄交易，誰就損失25美元。雙方的錢由當?shù)氐你y行家保管。
第二天早晨，在規(guī)定的時間，法官到了骯臟的路上，牽了一匹馬，這匹馬之丑陋整個伊利諾伊州的所有地方都從未見過。圍觀的人群立刻爆發(fā)出笑聲，認為亞伯拉罕·林肯肯定處于這場交易的劣勢。因為，比這還要糟糕并且仍能行走的馬不可能存在。
幾分鐘之后，人們看到林肯先生朝著大商場走來，肩上扛著又大又笨重的東西。走近之后，人們看清了，人群爆發(fā)出了喊聲和笑聲，這種喊聲和笑聲立刻成為雷霆般的吼聲。林肯先生仔細而認真地看了法官的馬之后，放下自己的鋸木架，解釋說：“好啦，法官，這是我有生以來第一次在馬交易市場中所找到的最糟糕的馬。”

【答案】
52.B53.A54.D55.D
【解析】
52.雖然文章中提到14和18世紀人們穿的鞋，但并沒有講各個歷史時期的鞋，排除選項A。同樣，文中提到時裝，但鞋與時裝并不是文章的主要焦點，排除選項D。文章的確提到世界各地不同的人的鞋。選項B是正確的。
53.第一段。靴子比鞋的幫高，高過腳腕兒。選項A是正確的。
54.第一段。人們穿鞋就是為了保護腳不受傷害。選項D是正確的。
55.根據(jù)文章，拖鞋、涼鞋都不是鞋的一種款式。選項D是正確的。
【原文大意】
鞋是腳的外罩。它有鞋底，大多數(shù)有后跟兒。大多數(shù)的鞋幫不高過腳腕兒。靴子要高過腳腕兒。人們穿鞋是為了保護自己的腳不受壞天氣、尖利的物質(zhì)以及不舒服的表面?zhèn)�。鞋也是人們服裝中很重要的一部分。時裝經(jīng)常決定個體所穿鞋的款式。時髦的愿望成就了許多非同一般的鞋的款式。14世紀，許多歐洲的男性穿著一種叫crackowes的鞋。這種鞋的鞋尖格外長。從14到18世紀，有些歐洲婦女穿的鞋鞋底特別厚，以至于在沒有幫助的情況下行走實際上都是不可能的。在東方的國家，鞋曾經(jīng)與6英寸高的高蹺連在一起。
傳統(tǒng)上來說，大部分的鞋都是皮做的�，F(xiàn)在有很多材料都可用來做鞋。包括：帆布、絲絨以及合成物，如塑料。鞋的材料及款式有所不同，這取決于氣候、風俗及其他的差別。荷蘭的農(nóng)民因為環(huán)境潮濕經(jīng)常穿很重的木鞋，而日本人則在室外穿鞋，在家穿軟拖鞋。在有些地區(qū)，人們不穿鞋而只是穿裹腳布。有些人盛夏穿涼鞋，嚴冬穿靴子。
