第三节：阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
I was fifteen months old, a happy carefree kid… until the day I fell. It was a bad fall. I landed on a glass rabbit which cut my eye badly enough to blind it. Trying to save the eye, the doctors stitched（缝合）the eyeball together where it was cut, leaving a bit ugly scar in the middle of my eye. As I grew, this sightless eye in so many ways controlled me.
I walked with my face looking at the floor so people would not see the ugly me. Sometimes people, even strangers, asked my embarrassing questions or made hurtful remarks. When the kids played games, I was always the “monster”.
Yet Mama would say to me, “If you hold your head up high, it will be okay, and people will see your beautiful soul.” She continued this message whenever I wanted to hide.
Those words have meant different things to me over the years. I found that sometimes when I held my head up high and let people know me, they liked me. My mama’s words helped me begin to realize that by letting people look at my face, I let them recognize the intelligence and beauty behind both my eyes even if they couldn’t see it on the surface.
In high school I was successful both academically and socially. I was even elected class president.
My mama’s love and encouragement were the spark（火花）that gave me the confidence to overcome my own doubt. I learned not only to appreciate myself but to have deep compassion（同情）for others.
66. How did the writer feel when he acted as “monster” in the kids’ games?
A. Happy. B. Painful. C. Proud. D. Great.
67. What does the writer mean by saying the underlined sentence?
A. He couldn’t see things clearly because one of his eyes was blind.
B. Because one of his eyes was sightless, he couldn’t live with other children.
C. He had not the same rights as others because of his sightless eye.
D. His sightless eye affected his life greatly.
68. From the passage, we can learn that ___________.
A. if you are full of confidence, you can overcome any difficulty
B. a person with a sightless eye can also succeed
C. if you hold your head up high when walking, people can see your beautiful soul
D. people can hardly see the intelligence and beauty behind one’s eyes
69. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. A Disabled Boy’s Childhood B. A Kind Mother’s Love
C. Hold Your Head up High D. A Successful Way of a Blind Man
B
It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.
The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries（食品杂货），saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity（人性）as a whole. And it has influenced（影响）us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.
70. Why was the bike so important to the couple?
A. The man’s job was bike racing. B. It was their only possession.
C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed. D. They used it for work and daily life.
71. We can infer from the text that ____________.
A. the couple worked 60 hours a week. B. people were busy before Christmas
C. the stranger brought over the bike D. life was hard for the young family.
72. How did people get to know the couple’s problem?
A. From radio broadcasts. B. From a newspaper.
C. From TV news. D. From a stranger.
73. What do the couple learn from their experience?
A. Strangers are usually of little help. B. One should take care of their bike.
C. News reports make people famous. D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.
C
Co-operation means working together for the benefit of all. Without co-operation modern society could not exist. Co-operation has at its best among the farmers in the dry areas of certain parts of Australia and Africa. The fields have been
irrigated（灌溉）in these areas. Crops cannot be grown without water. For this purpose, canals（运河）and reservoirs have been built. The canals have been cut through the fields of not only one farmer. Those who live higher up the valley than the others have permitted canals to be built through their land in order to carry water to the fields of farmers lower down. When there is a long period without rain, all share the water. Instead of taking all the water for themselves, the farmers in the higher land leave enough water for their neighbors down the valley. Farming in the dry areas has been made possible by such co-operation. By co-operation farmers have learned to make even the desert produce crops.
74．Co-operation means .
A．working for others
B．working for oneself
C．working together for the interests of all
D．working together for the benefit of the whole world
75．In dry weather the farmers who live higher up the valley .

Wednesday, October fifteenth, is the first Global Handwashing Day．Activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap．

Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing with Soap．Partners include the United Nations Children’s Fund，American government agencies，the World Bank and soap makers Unilever and Protean Gamble．The goal, they say，is to create a culture of hand washing with soap．

water． Finally，dry your hands with a clean cloth or wave them in the air．
The Partnership for Handwashing says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing．Soap also helps to break up the grease(油脂)and dirt that hold most of the germs．And it usually leaves a pleasant smell，which increases the likelihood that people will wash again．
The partnership says washing with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than any vaccine or medicine．It could help reduce cases of diarrhea(腹泻)by almost half．And it could reduce deaths from pneumonia(肺炎)and other breathing infections by one fourth；diarrhea is the second, leading cause of child deaths, killing more than a half million children a year, Pneumonia is the leading cause, killing about two million children under five each year, Handwashing can also prevent the spread of these diseases.

Several pieces of advice I’ve got in my life have really made a difference.
“Be nice to people”This sounds like a platitude(陈词滥调)，but I’ll never forget my father telling me that. I was 10，and I had been mean(刻薄)to someone. He said，“There is no point in being mean to anyone at any time．You never know who you’re going to meet later in life. And by the way, you don’t change anything by being mean. Usually you don’t get anywhere.”

Recently there was a heated discussion among Senior 3 students in our school. The students were questioned whether they were willing to have the evening self-study at school or not. Here is the result according to the survey.
60 percent of the students think it’s a good idea to have the evening self-study at school. They think they can do better in their study with the help of the teachers. Also, they can concentrate on their lessons better in the classroom and with company of their fellow classmates.
There are 25 percent of the students who think they prefer to study at home. They suppose that they may get disturbed by others and there are possible dangers on their way home alone.
At the same time, still 15 percent of the students don’t have a clear answer to the question. They say they will go to school to have evening self-study if they are asked to, but they promise they can also do well at home.
