第二部分 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A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项的标号涂黑。
A
After watching my mother deal with our family of five , I can’t understand why her answer to the question , “ What do you do ? ” is always , “Oh, I’m just a housewife.” JUST a housewife? Anyone who spends most of her time in meal preparation and clean-up, keeping the house clean, attending PTA meetings , leading a scout troop , playing taxi driver to us kids when it’s time for
school, musical lessons or the dentist , doing volunteer work for her community is not just a housewife. She’s the real Wonder Woman.
Why is it that so many mothers like mine regard themselves as second-class citizens or something similar? Where has this stereotype come from? Has our society made “going to work” outside the house more important than what a housewife must face each day? I would be curious to see what would happen if a housewife went on strike. Dishes would pile up and food in the house would run out. There would be no clean towels when needed. Walking and bus riding would increase.
I doubt if the man of the house would be able to take over. Oh, he would probably start out with the attitude that he can do just as good a job, but how long would that last? Not long, once he had to come home each night after work to more housework . There would be no coming home to a prepared meal; The kids would all be screaming for something to eat , clean clothes and more bus fare money . Once he quieted the kids, he’d have to clean the house, go shopping, make sure that kids got a bath, after cleaning out all the dog hairs from the bathtub . Once the kids were down for the night, he might be able to crawl into an unmade bed and try to read the morning newspaper.
21. What does the writer’s mother NOT do according to the first paragraph ?
A. Cooking . B. Tidying the house . C. Driving a taxi . D. Some unpaid work .
22. The underlined word “ stereotype ” in the second paragraph can be replaced by __________ .
A. mother B. citizen C. similarity D. thought
23. In the second paragraph , the writer suggests that __________ .
A. mothers are actually great women
B. our society looks down upon housewives
C. housewives should go on a strike
D. doing housework is not important at all
24. The possible main idea of the third paragraph is __________ .
A. men should share housework with their wives
B. attitude is not the only thing needed to do a job well
C. kids are the most challenging part of the housework
D. men are unlikely to handle the work of a housewife
B
Wolves are in the news these days , especially with the controversial Alaskan Wolf Hunting Festival being a focus of public attention . Since these animals are getting more attention in the outer world , they may be more likely to show up in your inner world and may take on many forms and have many meanings .
Wolves live in a pack（狼群）and they have a leader, a guide who is responsible for directing the pack and keeping it safe. If a wolf appears in your dream and you have a positive relationship with the wolf, it may suggest your own leadership abilities. Wolves in dreams may also mean the need for trusting your own internal leader—the soft howl from the bottom of your own heart.
While wolves certainly do howl, it is till unknown why they howl at the moon. The wolf’s how is actually a form of communication. Wolves may howl as a form of making friends, or as a warning, or to indicate that they are lonely or need help. Is your dream wolf howling? If so, what emotions exist in the dream? Do you feel lost and in need of guidance, do you feel like you’ve lost
your “pack”? Do you feel the need to let others know they are crossing your land? Or are you simply filled whit a sense of joy that can only be expressed in a howl?
Wolves can be experienced hunters, and often appear in folk stories as something harmless when in fact it is there to do great harm. Are there any wolves in sheep’s clothing in your life? Often we have intuition（直觉）about people or situations, feelings that these people or situations should be avoided, but we ignore them based on their harmless outer appearance. Wolves in dreams could be signs that there are hidden dangers in your life. Never ignore your intuition because it doesn’t make any sense. Your intuition exists to guide and protect you and it can discover a wolf long before it removes its woolen suit.
25. Why does the author mention “Alaskan Wolf Hunting Festival” in the first paragraph?
A．To support the main idea of the text B．To introduce the topic of the passage
C．To show his pity for the wolves D．To prove wolves are getting more attention
26. What does “your inner world” refer to in the first paragraph?
A．personalities B．feelings C．thoughts D．dreams
27. According to the text, wolves howl for the following reasons EXCETP __________ .
A．to be friendly with other wolves B．to ask for help
C．to share how they feel D．to admire the moon
28. The passage is mainly about __________ .
A．wolves and their behaviors B．explanations of people’s dreams
C．different types of wolf D．hidden dangers in our dreams
C
Some recent reports on the death penalty have brought some interesting responses from readers all over the country . Although I really don’t like to make fun of people who oppose the death penalty because they are so sincere , I wish they would come up with some new arguments to replace the worn-out ones.
For example, many said something like this : “Wouldn’t it be better to keep the killers alive so psychiatrists can study them in order to find out what makes them the way they are?”
It takes the average psychiatrist about five years to figure why a guy wants to stop for two drinks after work and won’t quit smoking. So how long do you think it will take him to determine why somebody with an IQ of 92 decided to murder the little old lady who lives next door? Besides, we have a huge number of killers in our prisons—more than enough to keep all the nation’s psychiatrists busy for the next 20 years.
Another standard is: “The purpose of the law should be to protect society, not to give cruel punishment, such as the death penalty.”
In that case ,we should tear down all the prisons and let all the criminals go because most people would consider a long period in prison to be cruel punishment—especially those who are locked up. Even 30 days in the Cook County Prison is no picnic.
And: “What gives society the right to take a life if an individual can’t?” The individuals who make up society give it that right. Societies perform many functions that individuals can’t. We can’t carry guns and shoot people, but we give that right to police.
Words can not explain the suffering the families of murder victim are left to live with. The families suffer a terrible loss, and they live with terrible memories. The knowledge that the killers are alive and will probably remain alive and cared for by society is extremely painful. Probably, People who oppose the death penalty should try explaining to these people how cruel it is to kill
someone.
29．What’s the writer’s attitude towards death penalty?
A．It is a necessary punishment.
B．It doesn’t solve all the problems.
C．It should be practiced more carefully.
D．It should only be used on murderers.
30．How many arguments against death penalty are discussed in the passage?
A．Two B．Three C．Four D．Five
31．What does the last sentence of the text suggest?
A．It’s cruel to use death penalty to kill someone.
B．Murder victims need more comfort from the society.
C．Opponents of death penalty should offer explanations.
D．Murderers should be put to death as the punishment.
32．The author develops the passage by __________ .
A．providing typical examples of death penalty
B．following the natural time order
C．presenting and analyzing ideas
D．comparing opinions from different fields
D
Part one : First Major Novels
If Dickens had remained the author of Pickwick , Oliver Twist , and The old Curiosity Shop , he might have gained lasting fame only as an author of cheerful comedy. But Dombey and Son, published in 1846 and continued till 1848, is a realistic novel of human life in a society which had taken more or less its modern form. The novel is a study of the influence of the values of a business society on the members of the Dombey family.
Part two: Dark novels
In 1851 Dickens was struck by the death of his father and one of his daughters within 2 weeks. Partly in response to these losses, he created a series of works which have come to be called his “dark” novels and which rank among the greatest success of the art of fiction.
Par three: Later Works
In 1859 Dickens published A Tale of Two Cities, a historical novel of the French Revolution, which is read today most often as a school text. It is fine picture of the historical period and a moving tale of a surprisingly modern hero. Besides publishing this novel in the lately founded All the Year Round, Dickens also published 17 articles, which appeared together with the novel as a book later.
Dickens’s next novel, Great Expectations (1860~1861), tells the story of a young man’s moral development in the course of his life—from childhood in the provinces to gentleman’s role in London. Not based on his own life like David Copperfield, Great Expectations belongs to type of fiction called, in German, Bildungsroman (the novel of a man’s education or formation by experience.)
33．Which of the following Dickens’ novel shows a clear change of style?
A．David Copperfield B．Pickwick C．Dombey and Son D．Oliver Twist
34．According to the passage, A Tale of Two Cities __________ .
A．is about the Industry Revolution B．can be found in most of the textbooks
C．is better than his “dark” novels D．is probably published in a new magazine
35．In Great Expectation, Dickens writes about __________ .
A．the growth of a man B．how to become a gentleman
C．his own life experience D．a man’s school education

School phobia is a type of illness which causes the students , typically between the ages of 8-13 , to be afraid to go to school . Symptoms include stomachaches , tiredness , shaking , a racing heart and frequent trips to the toilet .
36 Most commonly it is the result of separation anxiety , but it can also be caused by different kinds of stress . A child who has recently moved , suffered a loss , or gone through a divorce may develop school phobia , and phobias can also develop in response to an unrecognized learning disability , and poor self-image .

Many techniques can be used to manage school phobia . But research suggests that much more effective treatment is required for school phobia to prevent problems developing in later life . Children with this condition usually benefit from seeing a psychologist or doctor . 38 As soon as a school phobia is identified , parents should take action too . Like other phobias , school phobia gets worse if it is left untreated , and it can prevent the child from succeeding in school . 39 If bullying ( child abuse ) is a cause , for example , the bullying situation should be solved . A teacher can meet the child at the door and take him or her to class , and provide support so that the child feels a friendly adult is always available .
Changes at home can include supportive language from parents , along with support like assistance with homework . If a child lacks confidence , parents may encourage the child to take up new hobbies . 40 Parents might also talk to their children about their own fears of school and how they got over them , and their own enjoyment of school and school-like activities .
