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）
阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的 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涂黑。
A
Some kids start to drink alcohol （酒精） at a young age． They think it is part
of becoming an adult ． They also think drinking is not that bad because so many
people do it．They feel it is not as bad as taking drugs （毒品）． It is easy for kids to
get liquor（酒精饮料）by using fake identification （伪造证件）．
Parents may start to notice a change in their child’s behavior if the child starts
drinking ． Kids who drink sometimes stop doing things they normally liked to
do．They may keep telephone calls and meetings a secret and not want anybody to
touch their things．They act moody（喜怒无常） and do not have the same eating and
sleeping habits．
Parents need to stay involved （牵涉） in their kids’ lives． They should talk to
their children about their problems to be aware of any changes．
Parents can be the best protection． Children who get a lot of love can feel good
about themselves．It helps them resist（抵抗）doing bad things even when other kids
are doing them ． Parents can also help set a good example by not drinking and
driving． They can have firm rules in the home that everyone follows．
Give the children good ideas on how to say “no” to drinking, even when they are
at a party．Try not to overreact or panic（惊慌）if the child tries alcohol．How you
handle it can affect their attitude． It may be helpful to talk to other parents about
setting up curfews （宵禁令） and rules about parties or other events．
46．Which of the following is NOT the reason why some kids have an early start of
drinking?
A． They want to show their maturity （成熟） by drinking alcohol．
B． Drinking alcohol is much cooler than taking drugs．
C． They are affected by many other people around them．
D． They can get liquor easily．
47 ． According to the passage, what changes may happen to the kids who start
drinking?
A． Nothing serious will happen to them．
B． They keep the same eating and sleeping habits．
C． They can control their moods quite well．
D． Sometimes they act secretly．
48．According to the writer, if parents find their children try alcohol, they had better
________．
A． punish them at once
B． ask the police for help
C． ask their children’s friends for help
D． set up curfews and rules about parties or other events with other parents
49．Which is the main subject discussed in the passage?
A．Teen health． B． Teen education．
C．Teen drinking D． Parents’ worries．
B
Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence
developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to
both these questions is yes．To some degree our intelligence is given us at birth, and
no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low
intelligence ． On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will
develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings．Thus
the limits of a person's intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches
those limits will depend on his environment．This view, now held by most experts,
can be supported in a number of ways．
It is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born
with．The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely
to be in intelligence．Thus if we take two unrelated people at random（随机地） from
the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely
different．If on the other hand we take two identical （完全相同的） twins they will
very likely be as intelligent as each other．Relations like brothers and sisters, parents
and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that
intelligence depends on birth．
Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different
environments．We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a
factory where the work is boring．We would soon find differences in intelligence
developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part．This
conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with
each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of
intelligence．
50．Which of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Para．1?
A．To some degree, intelligence is given at birth．
B．Intelligence is developed by the environment．
C．Some people are born clever and others born stupid．
D．Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment．
51．It is suggested in this passage that_______．
A．unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligence
B．close relations usually have similar intelligence
C．the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are
likely to be in intelligence
D．people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar
degrees of intelligence
52．In Para．1, the word "surroundings" means_______．
A．intelligence B．life C．environments D．housing
53．The best title for this article would be_______．
A．On Intelligence
B．What Intelligence Means
C．We are Born with Intelligence
D．Environment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence
C

8 ． Every body with today's China Daily will get a small present that

（ ENGLISH NEWSPAPER, March 19 ） English Newspaper needs a foreign
editor ． He （ She ） must have worked in China for more than 2
years．British nationality is necessary．The salary is $ 100,000 a year．The
term is 3 years． In ten days this piece of advertisement will not be useful．
Telephone: 3890666; addreses: No． 6 Xinling Road …
（CHINA FOOTBALL, February 3, 1996）

TIME: February 8． Sunday （3:00） PLACE: Hongkou Stadium
TICKET PRICE; RMB 25 yuan （for adults ） RMB 15 yuan （for students）

Are you happy? Do you remember a time when you were happy? Are you
seeking happiness today?
Many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness．Some have
put their hearts and efforts into their work ． Too many have turned to drugs and
alcohol．Meanwhile, untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive
cars, exotic（异国的） vacation homes and other popular “toys”．Most of their efforts
have a root in one common fact: people are looking for a lasting source of happiness．
Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes from many people because they
misunderstand the journey of finding it．I have heard many people say that, “I’ll be
happy when I get my new promotion．” Or “I’ll be happy when I lose that extra 20
pounds．” It is dangerous because it accepts that happiness is a “response” to having,
being or doing something．
In life, we all experience stimulus（激励） and response．Today, some people
think that an expensive car is a stimulus, and happiness is a response; a great paying
job is a stimulus, and happiness is a response; a loving relationship is a stimulus, and
happiness is a response．This belief leaves us the thinking and feeling: I’ll be happy
when …
It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true．I believe that happiness is
a stimulus and a response is what life brings to those who are truly happy．When we
are happy, we tend to have more success in our work．When we are happy, people
want to be around us and enjoy loving relationships．When we are happy, we more
naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health．Happiness is not a
response but a stimulus．
Happiness is a conscious choice we make every day of our lives．For unknown
reason to me, many choose to be painful, unsuccessful and angry most of the
time ． Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we
want--we usually get things we want AFTER we choose to be happy．
57．From the second paragraph, we know too many people ______________．
A．are not happy when they work hard
B．are not happy when they drink or take drugs
C．are happy when they possess their own expensive cars
D．all desire exotic vacation homes
58．Generally speaking, most people feel happy because ______________．
A．they think happiness is rooted in their deep hearts
B．they get what they want to have
C．they get a great paying job
D．they get an expensive car
59．Which of the following is right according to the author?
A．If you want to get what you want, you first choose to be happy．
B．We should try to get more and then we’ll be happy．
C．Most people today are happy．
D．Work is a necessary part in our daily life
60．From the viewpoint of the author, happiness is _______________．
A．based on our needs B．unconditional
C．out of reach D．limited

People have expressed themselves thrugh the movements, steps, and rhythms of
dance since the beginning of time. They have prayed and celebrated their victories
through dance. People have mourned their dead and healed their sick through dance,
the language of the body.
62.
Today there are many kinds of dancing. For example, there is folk dancing, ballet
dancing, and modern dancing. Modern dance, which began in the early 1900s, is a
very expressionistic dance. Modern dancers follow no set pattern. Rather, they create
their own movements to match the feeling they are trying to express. But modern
dance means more than just selt-expression.
63.
Martha Graham is one of the world’s greatest modern dancers. As a young
dancer, she studied with some of the founders of the modern dance movement.
Influnced by many different kinds of dancing, Martha Graham developed her own
personal dance style. She later formed her own dance company and school in the New
York City. The following are some of her feelings about her art.
64.
The modern dancer’s costume is an important part of his or her dance. There is
always some reason why a dance costume should be a certain color or an outfit cut in
a certain way. The reason comes out of the dance itself. Unlike a ballet costume, a
modern dance costume is left of the dancers’ art except the pictures and the memories.
65.
Dances come from something deep within a person. That something cannot be
expressed with words--- it must be told through movement. Because dance expresses
emotions, it affects the mind and the body. Dance should not be taken apart
interpreted-dance must be experienced.
A. The functions of dance
B. Martha Graham, a great modern dancer.
C. Emotional expression of modern dance.
D. The importance of a modern dancer’s dancers.
E. The art life of the modern dancers.
F. A brief introduction of modern dance.
