How did I ever let my brother talk me into this? When we get home if we ever get home—he's going to have to do something great to get back on my good side．Maybe he should sponsor a shopping spree （狂购） at the mall! Tuesday: Things are looking up．The sun came out today, so we were able to leave the tents and dry out．We're camped at the edge of a small lake that I couldn't see before because of the rain and fog．The mountains are all around us, and the forest is absolutely beautiful．We spent most of the day dragging out everything out of our backpacks or tents and putting it where the sun could dry it out．Later in the afternoon we tried to catch the fish for dinner, but the fish were smarter than we were．At night we built a fire and sang songs happily． ‎ Wednesday: We hiked to the far side of the lake and climbed to the top of a small peak．From there we could see how high the other mountains were and how far the forest spread around us．On the way up we passed through a snowfield! ‎ Thursday: I caught my first fish!

The notice stated there was a reward，and also that the dog needed medication．Any caller could remain anonymous（匿名旳）． ‎ Atkins had parked the car outside a hardware store with the keys inside and gone in to rent a carpet cleaner．¨It was l0 minutes and I came out and my car was gone along with Benjerman in broad daylight，” Atkins said．The car thief threw Atkins’ wallet and other personal items out of the car before escaping from the scene． ‎ ‎60．Which of the following shows the correct order of what happened? ‎ a．Notices were put up saying there was a reward． ‎ b．Atkins saw Benjerman again． ‎ c．Police found Atkins’ car． ‎ d．Atkins took Benjerman back from a society shelter． ‎ e．Atkins hired a carpet cleaner in a hardware store． ‎ A．d,e,a, b,c B．d,e,a,c,b C．e,a,d,b,c D．e,a,c,d,b ‎ ‎61．We can infer from the passage A．the dog was treated extremely badly by the thief ‎ B．car stolen accidents happen frequently nowadays ‎ C．the dog was found because of the reward ‎ D．the thief stole the car easily ‎ ‎62．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? ‎ A．Benjerman was sent back immediately after Atkins put up the notices． ‎ B．Atkins and her friends made a great effort to look for Benierman． ‎ C．The thief gave the dog back but kept the sports car． ‎ D．The dog was back at 1 pm on a Friday． ‎ C ‎ Reading‎ is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text．The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and get answers．In the light of these he put further questions, and so on． ‎ For most of the time this “conversation” goes on below the level of consciousness．At times, however, we become aware of it．This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning．When successful matching is being experienced, our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level． ‎ Different people converse with the text differently．Some stay very close to the words on the page; others take off imaginatively from words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining．The former represents a kind of comprehension that is written in the text, while the latter represents higher levels of comprehension．The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers． ‎ There is another conversation that from our point of view is important, and that has not to do with what is read but with how it is read．We call this a “process” conversation as opposed to a “content” conversation．It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we employ in reading．If we are skilled readers, our ability to hold a content conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed．Not ‎ so our ability to hold a process conversation．It is just this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level． ‎ ‎63．Reading as a kind of conversation between the reader and the text becomes conscious only when ． ‎ A．the reader’s expectation agree with what is said in the text ‎ B．the reader asks questions and gets answers ‎ C．the reader has trouble understanding what the author says ‎ D．successful matching is occurring ‎ ‎64．At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to ______． ‎ A．read a text slowly B．read without thinking hard ‎ C．interpret a text in their own way D．concentrate on the meaning of words only ‎ ‎65．A “process” conversation has to do with ______． ‎ A．the development of our ability to check the details B．determining the main idea of a text ‎ C．what reading material is read D．the application of reading strategies ‎ ‎66．From the passage we know ______． ‎ A．it’s important for readers to have conscious and unconscious levels of comprehension B．readers should take a critical attitude towards the author’s ideas ‎ C．readers should learn to use different approaches in reading different texts ‎ D．readers should pay more attention to the content of a text ‎ D ‎ There is a famous story about British poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge. He was writing a poem when he was interrupted by a knock at the door. This was an age before the telephone. Someone was delivering a message. When Coleridge got back to his poem, he had lost his inspiration. His poetic mood had been broken by the knock on his door. His unfinished poem, which could otherwise have been a masterpiece, would now never be more than a fragment (片段). ‎ This story tells how unexpected communication can destroy an important thought. That brings us to the invention of the cellphone. ‎ The most common complaint about cellphones is that people talk on them to the annoyance of people around them. But more damaging may be the cellphone’s disruption (中断) of our thoughts. ‎ We have already entered a golden age of little white lies about our cellphones, and this is by and large a healthy, protective development. “I didn’t hear it ring” or “I didn’t realize my phone had shut off” are among the lies we tell to give ourselves space where we’re beyond reach. ‎ The notion of being unreachable is not a new concept — we have “Do Not Disturb” signs on the doors of hotel rooms. So why must we feel guilty when it comes to cellphones? Why must we apologize if we decide to shut off the cellphone for a while? ‎ The problem is that we come from a long-established tradition of difficulty with distance communication. Until the recent mass use of cellphones, it was easy to communicate with someone next to us or a few feet away, but difficult with someone across town, the country or the globe. We came to take it for granted. ‎ But cellphones make long-distance communication common, and endanger our time by ourselves. Now time alone, or a conversation with someone next to us which cannot be interrupted by a phone, is something to be cherished (珍惜). Even cellphone devotees, myself usually included, can’t help at times wanting to throw their phones away, or curse the day they were invented. ‎ But we don’t and won’t, and there really is no need. All that’s required to take back our private time is a general social recognition that we have the right to it. In other words, we have to develop a healthy contempt (轻视) for the rings of our own phones. Given the ease of making and receiving cellphone calls, if we don’t talk to the caller right now, we surely will shortly later. ‎ A cellphone call deserves no greater priority than a random word from the person next to us.Though the call on my cellphone may be the one-in-a-million from Steven Spielberg — who has finally read my novel and wants to make it his next movie. But most likely it is not, and I’m better off thinking about the idea I just had for a new story, or the slice of pizza I’ll eat for lunch. ‎ ‎67. What is the point of the story about the poet Coleridge? ‎ A. To direct readers’ attention to the main topic. ‎ B. To attract readers’ attention to read his poems. ‎ C. To show how important inspiration is to a poet. ‎ D. To emphasize the disadvantage of not having a cellphone. ‎ ‎68. Why does the writer mention the “Do Not Disturb” sign? ‎ A. To encourage us to use the cellphone as much as we can. ‎ B. To persuade us not to worry about the ring of the cellphone. ‎ C. To inform us that the cellphone is not to be disturbed in our life. ‎ D. To ask us to make an apology when we don’t answer the cellphone call. ‎ ‎69. What does the underlined word “it” (Paragraph 7) most probably refer to? ‎ A. answering a call from afar ‎ B. talking to friend next to us ‎ C. using the cellphone to chat with friends ‎ D. communicating to keep the long-established friendship ‎ ‎70. What can we infer from the last paragraph? ‎ A. Cellphones require more attention than any other invention. ‎ B. We sometimes throw the phone away when it is too disturbing. ‎ C. The writer would rather continue his own work than be interrupted by the ring. ‎ D. We should give priority to the cellphone as it has brought us so much convenience. ‎ 参考答案 一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一一
