第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节;满分 35 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
The light from the campfire brightened the darkness, but it could not prevent the damp cold of Dennis’s
Swamp ( 沼 泽 地 ) creeping into their bones. It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not
accepted Jack’s dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp.
“So,” Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “How did this place get its name? ”
“Are you sure you want to hear it? It’s a scary story,” warned Jack.
“Of course!”cried out Tom. “If there were anything to be scared of, you wouldn’t have chosen this place!”
“Ok, but don’t say I didn’t warn you,” said Jack, and he began this tale.
“Way back in time, a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in. In
those days, the area looked quite different―it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river.
After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he
refused to listen to advice.
“You are clearing too much land,” warned one old man. “The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if
you abuse it.”
“Silly fool,” said Dennis to himself. “If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I’ll become wealthier. He’s
just jealous!”第 5 页 共 12 页
“Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed.
He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not
notice salt seeping(渗透)to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”
“What happened?” Martin asked. It was growing colder. He trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.
“The land hit back ---- just as the old man warned,” Jack shrugged. “Dennis disappeared. Old folks around
here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.”
“What a stupid story,” laughed Tom. “Plants can’t …” Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and
fainted. The other two boys jumped up with fright, staring at Tom. Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Some green
swamp ivy (常春藤) had covered Tom’s face. It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.
21. The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closed in meaning to ________.
A. courage B. assistance C. instruction D. challenge
22. Why did Tom scream and faint?
A. He saw Dennis’s shadow. B. He was scared by a plant.
C. His friends played a joke on him. D. The weather became extremely cold.
23. What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis?
A. Grasp all, lose all. B. No sweat, no sweet.
C. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing. D. It is no use crying over spilt milk.
B
When international aid is given, steps must be taken to ensure that the aid reaches the people for whom it is
intended. The way to achieve this may not be simple. It is very difficult for a nation to give help directly to people
in another nation. The United Nations Organization (UNO) could undertake to direct the distribution of aid. Here
however rises the problem of costs. Also tied with this is time. Perhaps the UNO could set up a body of devoted
men and women in every country who can speedily distribute aid to victims of floods and earthquakes.
More than the help that one nation can give to another during a disaster, it would be more effective to give
other forms of help during normal times. A common proverb says, “Give me a fish and I eat for a day, teach me to
fish and I eat for a lifetime.” If we follow this wise saying, it would be right to teach people from less developed
nations to take care of themselves. For example, a country could share its technology with another. This could be in
simple areas like agriculture or in more complex areas like medical and health care or even in building satellites.
Even a small country is able to help less developed nations. Sometimes what is taken for granted, like the setting up 第 6 页 共 12 页
of a water purification plant or the administration of a school, could be useful for countries which are looking about
to solve common problems. It does not cost much to share such simple things. Exchange students could be attached
for a number of months or years and learn the required craft while on the site. They can then take their knowledge
back to their homelands and if necessary come back from time to time to clear doubts or to update themselves.
Such aid will be truly helpful and there is no chance of it being temporary or of it falling into the wrong hands.
Many countries run extensive courses in all sorts of skills. It will not cost much to include deserving foreigners
in these courses. Besides giving effective help to the countries concerned, there is also the build-up of friendships
to consider. Giving direct help by giving materials may be effective in the short run and must continue to be given
in the event of emergencies. However, in the long run what is really effective would be the sharing of knowledge.
24. The second paragraph is developed mainly _________.
A. by example B. by process C. by comparison D. by contrast
25. Which aid is likely to fall into the wrong hands?
A. A medical team. B. An exchange program.
C. A water plant. D. Financial support.
26. What can we infer about international aid from the passage?
A. It is facing difficulties. B. It should be given in the form of materials.
C. It has gained support by developed countries. D. It is unnecessary during normal times.
C
Many people think that listening is a passive business. It is just the opposite. Listening well is an active
exercise of our attention and hard work. It is because they do not realize this, or because they are not willing to do
the work, that most people do not listen well.
Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else. An essential part of listening well is the
rule known as ‘bracketing’. Bracketing includes the temporary giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices
and desires, to experience as far as possible someone else’s world from the inside, stepping into his or her shoes.
Moreover, since listening well involves bracketing, it also involves a temporary acceptance of the other person.
Sensing this acceptance, the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part of his or her mind to the
listener. True communication is under way and the energy required for listening well is so great that it can be
accomplished only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growth.
Most of the time we lack this energy. Even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships
that we are listening well, what we are usually doing is listening selectively. Often we have a prepared list in mind 第 7 页 共 12 页
and wonder, as we listen, how we can achieve certain desired results to get the conversation over as quickly as
possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us. Many of us are far more interested in talking than in
listening, or we simply refuse to listen to what we don’t want to hear.
It wasn’t until toward the end of my doctor career that I have found the knowledge that one is being truly
listened to is frequently therapeutic(有疗效的). In about a quarter of the patients I saw, surprising improvement
was shown during the first few months of psychotherapy(心理疗法), before any of the roots of problems had been
uncovered or explained. There are several reasons for this phenomenon, but chief among them, I believe, was the
patient’s sense that he or she was being truly listened to, often for the first time in years, and for some, perhaps for
the first time ever.
27. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?
A. How to listen well. B. What to listen to.
C. Benefits of listening. D. Problems in listening.
28. According to the author, in communication people tend to ________.
A. listen actively B. listen purposefully
C. set aside their prejudices D. open up their inner mind
29. According to the author, the patients improved mainly because _______.
A. they were taken good care of. B. they knew they were truly listened to.
C. they had partners to talk to. D. they knew the roots of problems.
30. What type of writing the article likely to be?
A. Science fiction B. A news report. C. A medical report. D. Popular science

Ten-year-old Sami loved to visit his grandfather's house. The house was near the beautiful blue sea. At the
seaside stood thick and tall palm trees with green coconuts hanging from them. When the coconuts fell down, Sami
would break them open and drink the coconut water. Sami liked to play under the trees. It was always great fun to
spend the holidays at Grandpa's place.
This winter vacation, Sami was surprised when he came to his grandfather's village. There were hardly any
trees left. He saw houses built near the sea. People had cut down many palm trees and there was hardly any
greenery left.
Grandpa's house was different. He never allowed his trees to be cut. He hugged each palm tree in his
courtyard. He also named the two big trees near the front door--one was Petu, and the other Betu. He had planted
them with his own hands and today they had become large, massive trees with thick trunks. They were tall and
green and gave the sweetest, juiciest coconuts.
One night, Sami was awakened by a strange sound. He could not sleep. He tossed(辗转)and turned in bed.
Suddenly, the ground shook as if the earth was splitting. He sat up straight and then ran to Grandpa. He clung(附
着)to his grandpa tightly. Grandpa cried out, “It's an earthquake! It's an earthquake!" They ran outside the house.
They thought that would be safe.
Suddenly, there was a loud sound; the earth was not splitting but the sea was roaring. People were shouting,
screaming and crying, “The sea is rising! The sea is rising." The villagers started running away from the beach.
Sami watched dumbstruck(呆若木鸡).
The waves were rising higher and higher. Sami thought, “How big the waves are!" He went into the house
again and saw water coming in from all sides. He was scared.
Sami remembered his mother telling him long ago, “You must always get out of the house if the floods come
too near." He ran outside the house with Grandpa. But the water came surging(汹涌) in.
Waves about twelve meters high came rushing in, drowning everything. Water was all around and
everywhere.
