第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）

第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20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， 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

When Lew Alcindor was 13, and obviously still growing, a group of schools began offering him scholarships . The Alcindors decided to send their only child to Power Memorial Academy, a small school on Manhattan’s West Side.

At Power, Alcindor came under the control of Coach Jack Donohue, a strict young man

who already gained his fame as one of the best coaches in the city. Donohue brought Alcindor along slowly. As a first-year student, the boy was not able to do much but wave his long skinny arms and shoot a basket now and then. But by the second year, when he was 15 years old and nearly 7 feet tall, Alcindor was quick and skillful enough to make the high school All-American team and to lead Power to an undefeated season.

From then on he simply got better. Some rival coaches used to take their teams quickly away from the floor before Power warmed up so that their players would not see him any sooner than they had to. Wearing size 16D shoes and sucking a lollipop (棒棒糖), Alcindor would loosen up by starting his leaping lay-ups (跨越式上篮). Then he would casually shoot the ball with either hand, to the delight of the fans.

When reporters and photographers began to follow Alcindor closely, Donohue protected his boy firmly. He simply ordered Lew to talk to no member of the press, and this suited Lew fine. He was not comfortable talking to grown-ups, perhaps because he towered over them. Discouraged photographers began following him in secret as though he were an easily-frightened giraffe. Once after ducking into a subway to escape, Alcindor told a friend that it was all becoming like policemen and robbers. “People want you not for yourself,” Donohue warned him, “but because you’re a basketball player. Don’t forget that. ”

21. Many schools offered Alcindor scholarships because_________. A. he was young B. he was hardworking

C. he was tall for his age D. he was skillful at playing basketball

22. Why did some rival coaches take their teams away from the floor before Power warmed up? A. Their teams refused to play Power. B. Their teams feared to see Alcindor. C. Their teams would lose courage. D. Their teams would lose interest. 23. What does the last paragraph mainly discuss? A. How Donohue protected Alcindor from the press B. How Alcindor disliked meeting reporters C. Why the press followed Alcindor closely D. Why the public wanted Alcindor badly B

Supermarkets are trying out new computers that make shopping carts （购物车）more intelligent. They will help shoppers find cups or toilet soap, and keep a record of the bill.The touch-screen devices are on show at the Food Marketing Institute’s exhibition here this week. \devices are able to create value and get you around the store quicker,\said Michael Alexandor, manager of Springboard Retail Networks Inc., which makes a smart cart computer called the Concierge.

Canadian stores will test the Concierge in July. A similar device, IBM’s \has recently been test-marketed at Stop & Shop stores in Massachusetts. Neither device tells you how many fat grams or calories are in your cart, but they will flash you with items on sale. The idea is to make it easier for people to buy, not to have second thoughts that maybe you should put something back on the shelf.

“The whole model is driven by advertisers’ need to get in front of shoppers,” said Alexandor. People can use a home computer to make their shopping lists. Once at the store, a shopper can use a preferred customer card to start a system that will organize the trip around the store. If you’re looking for toothpicks, you type in the word or pick it from a list, and a map will appear on the screen showing where you are and where you can find them.

The devices also keep a record of what you buy. When you’re finished, the device figures out your bill. Then you go to the checker or place your card into a self-checkout stand and pay. The new computerized shopping assistants don’t come. The Buddy devices will cost the average store about $160,000, and the Concierge will cost stores about $500 for each device.

24. Which of the following is the correct order of shopping with the computerized shopping carts? a. Start the system. b. Make a shopping list.

c. Find the things you want. d. Go to a self-checkout stand. A. abdc B. bacd C. acbd D. bcad 25. We can learn from the last paragraph that_________. A. intelligent shopping carts cost a large sum of money B. the Concierge is cheaper than the Buddy devices

C. shop assistants with computer knowledge are well paid D. average stores prefer the Concierge to the Buddy devices 26. What might be the most suitable title for the text? A. New age for supermarkets B. Concierge and Shopping Buddy

C. New computers make shopping carts smarter

D. Touch-screen devices make shopping enjoyable

Treasure hunts(寻宝) have excited people's imagination for hundreds of years both in real life and in books such as Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. Kit Williams, a modern writer, had the idea of combining the real excitement of a treasure hunt with clues found in a book when he wrote a children's story, Masquerade（化装舞会）, in 1979. The book was about a hare, and a month before it came out Williams buried a gold hare in a park in Bedfordshire. The book contained a large number of clues to help readers find the hare, but Williams put in a lot of red herrings（鲱鱼）, or false clues, to mislead them.

Ken Roberts, the man who found the hare, had been looking for it for nearly two years. Although he had been searching in the wrong area most of the time, he found it by logic, not by luck. His success came from the fact that he had gained an important clue at the start. He had realized that the words, \hare in some way to Katherine of Aragon, the first of Henry VIII's six wives. Even here, however, Williams had succeeded in misleading him. Ken knew that Katherine of Aragon had died at Kimbolton in Cambridgeshire in 1536 and thought that Williams had buried the hare there. He had been digging there for over a year before a new idea occurred to him. He found out that Kit Williams had spent his childhood near Ampthill, in Bedfordshire, and thought that he must have buried the hare in a place he knew well, but he still could not see the connection with Katherine of Aragon, until one day he came across two stone crosses in Ampthill Park and learnt that they had been built in her honor in 1773.

Even then his search had not come to an end. It was only after he had spent several nights digging around the cross that he decided to write to Kit Williams to find out if he was wasting his time there. Williams encouraged him to continue, and on February 24th, 1982, he found the treasure. It was worth ￡3000 in the beginning, but the excitement it had caused since its burial made it much more valuable.

27. The underlined word “them” ( paragraph 1) refers to ______. A. red herrings B. treasure hunts

C. Henry VIII's six wives D. readers of masquerade 28. The stone crosses in Ampthill were built ______.

A. to tell about what happened in 1773 B. to show respect for Henry VIII's first wife C. to serve as a road sign in Ampthill Park D. to inform people where the gold hare was 29. Which of the following describes Roberts logic in searching for the hare? a. Henry VIII's six wives b. Katherine's burial place at Kimbolton

c. Williams childhood in Ampthill d. Katherine of Aragon e. stone crosses in Ampthill Park A. a-b-c-e-d B. d-b-c-e-a C. a-d-b-c-e D. b-a-e-c-d 30. What is the subject discussed in the text?

A. An exciting historical event. B. A modern treasure hunt.

C. The attraction of Masqurrade. D. The importance of logical thinking.

In Thanks for What We Have

I sat nervously and waited for Kathleen to speak. Being called to the human resources

department is a little like being called to the principal’s office. “Annie,” she said, “A food bank in our town that serves the elderly is asking for 36 . I’d like you to organize the event and see it through.” “Well, um, errr…sure. I guess so.” As I stuttered (结结巴巴地说) through my 37 , all I could think was, “What? Why me?”

I walked back to my office without any idea as to where to 38 . This was a time when the economy was 39 . The rise in unemployment forced the families of many of my coworkers
