第二节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）

It was my first week in Kansas City, the USA. My friend, Sharon, asked me 16 I’d like to try McDonald’s for a quick lunch. So, there we went. American fast food has been quite 17 in China, so I could easily pick something that I 18 have in Beijing—a Super burger, a coke and French fries, though the names of 19 burgers were different in English. To my 20 , the burger was much bigger than 21 I had back home in China. I thought to myself, after all, most 22 are bigger than Chinese. They must 23 more for lunch.

With my lunch set in front of me, I wanted some tomato sauce to 24 with my French fries, so I went to the 25 and asked him for some tomato sauce.

“What?” he looked surprised. “Tomato sauce?”

I started to feel 26 . I had studied English back home for six years. He should be able to 27 me without any problem. Maybe, it was not called tomato sauce here, I 28 . “I’m not sure what you call that thing,” I tried again, “but it’s American food, and you put tomato sauce on everything.”

“ 29 , miss,” he said shaking his head, “but we don’t have tomato sauce here. Never have it.”

I walked back to Sharon and asked her the question. She 30 and asked me to wait for a while. A few minutes later, she came back with several 31 that I had asked for. So, they 32 used the same package for the tomato sauce. Oh, no, it’s written right there: “Ketch-up.”

“Why? What’s the difference between this Ketch-up and the tomato sauce?”

“I don’t know 33 we call it by this name,” said Sharon. “Never think about that. I guess.”

Sharon’s smile suddenly made me 34 that the difference between Ketch-up and tomato sauce lay not so much in the food itself 35 in our different culture.

16. A. when B. whether C. why D. how much

17. A. nice B. expensive C. popular D. different

18. A. used to B. could C. never D. sometimes

19. A. cold B. same C. different D. hot

第三节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

A

Do you like to eat out? Do you like to eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. In the past, people usually went to diners for these reasons. In fact, many people in the States still go to diners today for the same reasons.

A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. It wasn’t really a diner. It was only a food cart （手推车）. People on the street walked up to the cart, to buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and a late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner that was big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools (凳子), and people sat down while they ate.

Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dishes, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent（固定的，长久的） buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.

Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner.

Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonald’s and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.

36. Why is “diner” in quotation marks（引号） in the sentence: “A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872.”?

A. Because it is spelled differently from “dinner”.

B. Because the first diner was not a real diner.

C. Because “diner” was a new word at that time.

D. Because it is a special kind of restaurant.

37. What meals did the first diners serve?

A. Only breakfast. B. Only lunch.

C. Only night-meals. D. All of the above.

38. According to Paragraph 3, diners changed in ways.

A. two B. three C. four D. five

39. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Diners existed before fast-food restaurants.

B. The menu included more food than sandwiches and coffee.

C. Burger King is a fast-food restaurant.

D. Sandwiches were bigger in the early 1900s.

40. The main idea of the passage is .

A. the diner is a traditional, popular place to eat in the United States

B. Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside

C. American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customers

D. diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many ways

B

Man must eat in order to live; therefore, one of the most important problems man has is how to have enough food to eat.

At first man didn’t have any way to control his food supply. When he had killed all the animals in one place and all the natural foods had been used up, he had to move to another place to find new sources of food. If there was no rain, or if the weather was too hot or too cold, plants would not grow, then man had little or no food. However, man wasn’t worried so much about this condition because he always had enough food.

The kinds of plants that are grown by man are different in different regions(地区). In the colder regions, very few plants can be grown; in the warmer parts of the world, many kinds of plants are found. For example, in Asia, rice is the most important. In the New World, the major grain is corn. In Europe and North Africa, wheat, oats and barley（大麦） are grown. In the tropical region of the world, many kinds of fruits grow naturally or are raised by man.

As man has learned more about plants and animals, he now uses modern methods to produce different kinds of food. However, there are still some areas in the world where plants and animals are raised in much the same way, as they were thousands of years ago.

41. The underlined sentence “At first man didn’t have any way to control his food supply.” means that man .

A. didn’t know how to cook his food at first

B. sometimes had more than enough to eat and sometimes didn’t have enough to eat

C. didn’t know how to produce food at that time

D. didn’t have any way to get food

42. In the second paragraph, the underlined words “natural foods“ mean .

A. food which was from animals

B. food which was from plants

C. plants, animals, fruits etc. which grew in nature

D. crops and plants which were raised by man

43. When man gradually learned ways to grow plants and raise animals, he .

A. no longer depended on nature

B. could control the natural conditions

C. still depended on natural conditions, but not so much as before

D. began to care little about natural conditions

44. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. Man knew how to make foods and keep them at first.

B. At the very beginning, man knew that he needed food but didn’t know how to control his food

supply.

C. Before man learnt ways to grow crops and raise animals, he had to move from place to place in

order to get food.

D. How to have enough to eat has always been a problem for man.

C

Good health is the most important possession a person can have, but one can not regard good health as certain to happen. It’s important to remember that a body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to stay in good shape—one should eat the right foods, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.

Proper nutrition is important for good health. Your body can not function well unless it receives the proper kind of ”fuel“. Avoid foods with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein, like meat, fish, beans and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are especially important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals. However, don’t overeat. It’s not healthful to be overweight.

Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don’t get enough sleep, you will feel tired and irritable (易怒的，急躁的). You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality. Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.

Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your lifespan (寿命). Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shape: basketball, swimming, bicycling. Gymnastics and running are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.

If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.

45. In keeping good health .

A. we should eat a lot of sweets

B. one needs a large amount of fat

C. people should eat according to the food nutrition

D. we must try to sleep now and then

46. The underlined word in the third paragraph probably means .

A. 尖的 B. 舒服的

C. 敏锐的 D. 迷惑的

47. The title of this passage should be .

A. Eating and Sleeping B. Staying Healthy

C. Sleeping Well D. Good Foods

D

Scientists from China and the United States said they have found a chemical that could stop AIDS virus(艾兹病毒) from reproducing itself in the human body, raising hopes for a cure for AIDS.

The chemical was discovered by a research center at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in Hefei city, Anhui Province, and Mount Sinai School of Medicine in the United States.

The Sino-US joint laboratory research has found a compound(化合物，复合物), which researchers said could stop AIDS from entering cells（细胞） where the virus （细菌） lives and reproduces itself.

The compound can anticipate (抢先于……) AIDS virus and takes the holes of human body cells that have yet to be invaded by the virus. This would stop it from reproducing and surviving in human body, according to the researchers. The researchers did not say what the compound was and how they discovered it. The research result was published in the Journal of American Chemical. The journal highly praised the research.

The present medicine treatment for AIDS has not yet reached “ideal effectiveness” and continues to have harmful side-effects (副作用) and high costs.

AIDS is a fatal infectious disease（致命的传染性疾病） caused by HIV. Since the first case was reported in the United States in 1981, AIDS has spread rapidly in the world.

According to a report on China’s AIDS prevention and control, which was released by the Ministry of Health early last year, HIV cases had been reported in all the Chinese mainland.

There are 840,000 HIV carriers on the mainland, of whom 80,000 suffer from AIDS, said the Ministry of Health.

48. The aim to write the passage is to .

A. praise scientists for their contributions to stop AIDS

B. show scientists have discovered a compound to stop AIDS virus from reproducing

C. introduce to the readers that AIDS have been harming the world

D. call on more scientists to take up the research about anti-AIDS virus

49. After reading the passage, we know that .

A. the new discovery was mainly due to scientists’ cooperation

B. China takes the lead in the research of AIDS virus

C. the compound can kill AIDS virus in the end

D. the discovery of the compound was only by accident

50. In the opinion of the Journal of American chemical， is very important.

One possible version:

The problems of developing and

developed countries

The poorer countries called the developing countries have special problems. Sometimes, the land is too poor to grow anything on. The land can be improved but a lot of things must be done first. New farming methods must be found. The people must be educated. Water must be found.

But rich countries have problems, too. They are not always very pleasant. Usually, what makes them rich makes them unpleasant. Sometimes the air is too bad to breathe and the rivers are too dirty to swim in or to take water from.

Many of the problems are too big for one country to solve alone, especially for the developing countries. Help must be given by the richer countries but it must be the right sort of help. Money is not enough. The developing countries must be helped to help themselves.
