Kofi Annan joined the United Nations in 1962. On January 1,1997，Kofi Annan became the seventh Secretary General of the United Nations. Under Annan's leadership，the United Nations greatly increased its use of modern communications and he pushed the organization to be more open. In 1999 he released major reports on disasters in Rwanda and Srebrenica which contained judgements that were painfully selfcritical and set a new standard for UN evaluation and transparency. Annan will be remembered for his effective management and personal diplomacy，and his warmth and charm.

第三部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)
第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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。
A
Almost no young people today know who the cartoon character Oswald the Rabbit is，but they certainly recognize his successor，Bugs Bunny. Oswald，Bugs，and hundreds of other characters were created by Walt Disney，perhaps the most famous cartoonist in history.
Born in Chicago in 1901，Walt Disney always wanted to be an artist. After returning from World War Ⅰ，in which he drove an ambulance，Disney worked as a commercial artist. He enjoyed drawing cartoons more than anything else，and decided to try his hand at a technology that was new at the time，moving pictures.
In the 1920's，he produced several films where he made cartoon characters move as if by magic. The technique Disney used was painstaking. He made hundreds or even thousands of repeated drawings of the same character. In each drawing，the character was changed just a bit. A film was taken of the series of drawings，and when it was shown，the characters appeared to move. The process，called animation，is still used today，although computers have made the process much easier.
In 1928，Disney created his most famous character，Mortimer Mouse，who we know today as Mickey. The mouse starred in a cartoon called Steamboat Willie，which was unusual because it involved the use of a sound track. Within the next few years，Disney invented many of his other characters.
The list of Disney's animation successes is long and memorable. It includes Pinocchio，Dumbo，Bambi，Cinderella，and Peter Pan. Perhaps his most remarkable animated film is Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Created in 1937，it was an immediate success. Today，more than fifty years later，it is still one of the most popular films for children.
56．What is one of the chief differences between animation today and in Walt Disney's
early years?
- 15 -
A．More people like animated movies.
B．Fewer people like animated movies.
C．Computers have made the job easier.
D．Computers have made the job harder.
答案 C [细节理解题。第三段最后一句话“. . . computers have made the process much easier. ”提示了电脑技术的应用使这项工作更简单，而当时全是手绘的。]
57．Which of these words BEST describes Walt Disney?
A．Creative. B．Athletic.
C．Exciting. D．Quiet.
答案 A [推理判断题。文章反复提到Walt Disney创作了许多非常受欢迎的卡通人物形象，因此可以用creative(有创造力或想像力的)来描述。]
58．What does the underlined word “painstaking” in the third paragraph probably
mean?
A．Something that hurts because it involves hard work.
B．Taking a long time and involving much hard work.
C．Requiring a lot of effort，like running a marathon.
D．Requiring many fine tools，such as pens and pencils.
答案 B [词义猜测题。由下文可知，动画片中的每一个动作都要画出成百上千张几乎相同的形象，所以要花费很长时间，工作量很大。]
59．The secret of animation is to________.
A．make drawings that are exactly the same，then film them
B．choose names for characters that make people remember them
C．combine music，voices，and sound effects with pictures
D．make a film of many drawings that change just a little
答案 D [推理判断题。通过第三段我们可以得知动作效果是怎样做出来的。]
B
The male lion's splendid mane (鬃毛) sets him apart from other cats—and it's great attraction for the ladies—so why would he do without it? That question has puzzled scientists since 1833，when the first reports of “maneless” lions streamed in from around the world. Now，a research team reports that lions from the Tsavo region of Kenya deliberately delay mane growth to fit in with the region's harsh temperatures.
John Patterson，a hunter and a British Colonel，was one of the first to document manelessness in Tsavo's famous maneaters. Ever since，naturalists have developed evolutionary descriptions. Some researchers suggested that lions lost their manes because they were caught too many times in Tsavo's thorn bushes everywhere. Others argued that Tsavo's aggressive lions have unusually high testosterone (雄激素) levels，known to cause male pattern baldness (秃顶) in humans. Still others supposed that Tsavo's lions were a distinct group or were a related to a lion pictured in prehistoric caves，which no longer existed.
But expert Thomas Gnoske at the Field Museum in Chicago，Illinois，considered something these researchers didn't：lions shipped to zoos in cooler climates grow longer manes. This made him wonder whether hot temperatures account for Tsavo's thinning lions. To find out，Gnoske and his colleagues studied museum records and conducted 10 years of fieldwork in Tsavo and in the Serengeti，which is about 10 degrees cooler. In an artick published online this month in the Journal of Zoology，the team reports that lions in the Serengeti grow a full mane in 5 years—by the time
- 15 -
they're ready to be parents—but that Tsavo's lions don't have much of mane until age 8，well past their reproductive period.
Gnoske thinks smaller manes improve a young，energetic lion's ability to keep cool. Bushy manes probably evolved to attract females in cooler climates where heat stress was not an issue，Gnoske says，and lions can't just turn off that_program，now that they're in a place like Tsavo. “They're hardwired to grow a mane，and they'll develop as large a mane as they possibly can. ”
Scientist Roland Kays of the New York State Museum in Albany says he is surprised by the delay in mane development. However，he expresses concern about the accuracy of using field observations to judge the age of Tsavo lions. Gnoske says his team is now focusing its research on Tsavo lions with known birth dates，but it will be a challenge to keep track of the wideranging animals，especially since radio collars are prohibited in Tsavo's national parks.
60．What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Studies on relationships between lions and climates.
B．Arguments on why the male lion lost its mane.
C．Comparisons of lions in Tsavo and Serengeti.
D．Different ways of studying manelessness of male lions.
答案 B [细节理解题。由第一段内容可知。]
61．Gnoske did fieldwork in Serengeti mainly because ________.
A．it has a much lower temperature
B．lions in Serengeti grow a full mane in 5 years
C．it is easier to make sure of the accuracy of field observation
D．lions in Serengeti grow a full mane when they are ready to be parents
答案 A [细节理解题。由第三段内容可知。]
62．Which part of a magazine do you suppose this passage is taken from?
A．Travel. B．Science.
C．Entertainment. D．History.
答案 B [推理判断题。对生物的研究应发表在杂志中的科学栏目里。]
63．The underlined words “that program”(Paragraph 4)most probably refer to ______.
A．being observed in field
B．growing up and having babies.
C．being caught in thorn bushes
D．growing manes to attract females
答案 D [词义推测题。由 that program 所在的段落中的 attract females 可知，正确答案为D。]
C
Every day，in all kinds of weather，many thousands of men and women jog. Why has jogging—running slowly for long distances become so popular？Most joggers begin because they hear it is a very good exercise. Jogging makes the heart stronger and helps people lose weight. It can also help them feel better about themselves.
Donald Robbins，who is fortytwo years old and works in an office，began jogging a few years ago because he felt he was too fat. At first he could only run about 100 yards. It took him three months to be able to run a mile. But two years later，he ran in a marathon race over twentysix miles. Many joggers，like Donald Robbins，feel that if they can succeed at jogging，they can succeed at other things also，and quite often this feeling helps them at their jobs.

How fast should you go？Jog with a friend and talk to each other as you run. If you have difficulty in talking，you're going too fast.

WASHINGTON—Extreme heat that has been baking much of the US Midwest and East Coast has eased on July 9，with rain and cooler temperatures reported in those parts of the country，while reports indicated the death toll of the heat wave has climbed to 74.
- 15 -
With cooler air swept southward in the eastern half of the country，the temperature has dropped from around 100 degrees Fahrenheit over the past two weeks to about 90 in most parts of the Midwest to the East Coast. In Washington，Monday was the first cool day after 11 days of sustained heat，with highs at 84 degrees.
The relief began on Saturday night，as thunderstorms led to the cooler temperatures. In New Jersey，a line of strong，fastmoving storms knocked out power to nearly 70,000 on Saturday night.
The heat was blamed for at least 74 deaths across the country in the past two weeks，according to NBC News，with states like Virginia and Illinois reporting double digit death toll.
The heat wave has been nearunprecedented(几乎史无前例的)for several major cities. In Chicago，the temperature reached 100 degrees for three days from Wednesday through Friday，which ties historic record. St Louis' period of 10 continuous days of 100 or higher has only been topped by the Dust Bowl year of 1936 when the period was 13 days. Washington hit 100 on Sunday for the fourth continuous day，tying a record set July 19－22,1930.
However，as the heat eases in the East，forecasters warned that a new round of record highs could soon bake Western states.

C．added D．reduced
答案 A [词义猜测题。根据前面的the first cool day after 11 days可知应选A。]
70．Which cities have temperatures reaching 100 degrees?
A．Washington，Chicago
B．Chicago，St Louis
C．St Louis，Washington
D．Washington，Chicago，St Louis
答案 D [细节理解题。根据倒数第二段several major cities可知下文提到的Chicago，St Louis和Washington都符合题目要求，故选D。]

Choosing the right job is probably one of the most important decisions we have to make in life，and it is frequently one of the hardest decisions we have to make. One important question that you might ask yourself is：“How do I get a good job？”__71__
There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local paper and land the best job in the world；others write to all sorts of places all over the country，and never seem to get a reply at all. Still others believe that the in person，doortodoor approach is by far the best way to get a job；and then there are those who，through no active decision of their own，just seem to be in the right place at the right time. __72__ He used to spend a lot of his free time down by the sea watching the tall ships，but never thinking that he might one day sail one of them. His father was a farmer，and being a sailor could never be anything for the boy but an idle dream. One day，on his

usual wandering，he heard the captain of the ship complaining that he could not sail because one member of his crew was sick. Without stopping to think，the lad(少年) offered to take his place. __73__
__74__ If the lad had gone home to ponder(考虑) his decision for a week，he may have missed his chance. It is one thing to be offered an opportunity；it is another thing to take it and use it well.
Sometimes we hear stories about people who break all the rules and still seem to land plum jobs(美差)．When you go for a job interview or fill out an application，you are expected to say nice things about the company to which you are applying. __75__ And within a year this person had become general manger of the company.
A．This story also illustrates the importance of seizing an opportunity when it presents
itself.
B．People find jobs in an infinite number of ways.
C．it's almost impossible to find a good job by answering advertisement in
newspapers.
D．Take for example the young man who wanted to be a sailor.
E．But there was one person who landed an excellent job by telling the interviewer all
the company's faults.
F．He spent the rest of his life happily sailing the ships he had always loved.
G．It is very important to seize an opportunity when it presents itself.
71．B [根据上下文，选项B符合逻辑意义。]
72．D [从此空的前后文可以很容易地看出，空后是对空前观点的例解。故选D。]
73．F [根据故事叙述，选项F是对所举事例的总结语。]
74．A [此空后面是对所举故事的进一步分析，选项A是此段的论点。]
75．E [从此短的论点“Sometimes we hear stories about people who break all the
rules and still seem to land plum jobs”便能看出，只有选与此空前面的观点相反的选项E，才能和后面的结果相符合。]

First，I'd like to thank you for your remind，although I don't agree with your view which students should spend more time on their lessons instead of read novels. Indeed，reading novels takes some of the time that should be spent on lessons，but it'll make us know what hard life is. Besides，by reading novels we can gain what we can't learn from our textbooks. Of course，reading novels have its shortcomings. Novels that have wrong ideas will make us to do something wrong. Maybe，in your eye，the disadvantages of reading novels outweigh the advantages.

Today I visited one of the biggest theme parks in China—Discoveryland in Dalian. It's divided into six parts，each of which has a particular theme，like desert，rainforest and so on. It leads us to an adventure of a wonderful world. On entering the park，I was attracted by the colorful buildings with special shapes and decoration. The fountain and ancient castle brought me to the fairyland. What excited me most was the roller coaster. It was running so fast that I could only feel strong wind sweeping my face and hear the screams of other people. The float parade and performances were really a feast for my eyes. This visit brought me great excitement and a new experience and I had lots of fun here.
