七、阅读理解
A
Would you believe that the first outstanding deaf teacher in America was a Frenchman? His name was Laurent Clerc.
He became a friend of Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet and together they founded America's first school for the deaf.
Laurent Clerc was born in a small village near Lyons, France, on December 26, 1785. He was born hearing but when
he was one year old, he fell into a fire, losing both his hearing and his sense of smell.
At 12, Laurent entered the Royal Institution for the Deaf in Paris, where he excelled in his studies. After he graduated,
the school asked him to stay on as an assistant teacher.
Meanwhile, in America, Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet was studying to be a minister when he met a young deaf girl,
Alice Cogswell. He was upset to learn that there were no schools for the deaf in America. He was very concerned about the
lack of educational opportunities for the deaf. Therefore, in 1815, Gallaudet sailed to London, England to seek ideas on how
to teach deaf people. While he was there, he met a French educator of the deaf who invited him to go to Paris to spend three
months learning at the Royal Institution for the Deaf, the school where Laurent Clerc was teaching. Gallaudet accepted the
offer. The two worked and studied well together. When the time came for Gallaudet to return, he asked Clerc to come with
him. Clerc accepted on one condition that he would stay in America only a short time.
The two men set sail on June 18,1816. The voyage across the Atlantic Ocean took 52 days; however, Clerc and
Gallaudet put the time to good use. Clerc studied English, and Gallaudet studied sign language. They discussed the school
for the deaf which they planned to open. On the long trip, they had many conversations about education and deafness. The
year after they arrived, they founded a school for the deaf in Harford, Connecticut.
At the school, Clerc led a busy life. He taught signs to Principal Gallaudet; he taught the pupils; he taught hearing men
who came to the school to study deaf education.
In 1819, Clerc married Eliza Crocker Boardman, one of his pupils. They had six children. He retired from teaching in
1858. Although h e had intended to return to France, he never did. He died on July 18,1869 in the United States.
56.From the information in this passage we can infer that ________.
A. Laurent Clerc was an intelligent man
B. Clerc had difficulty in learning language
C. Clerc married Eliza in order to get his Green Card
D. Clerc was paid well because he made such important contributions to society
57.Which is the right order of the things Clerc did?
A. Met Gallaudet, moved to America, got married, went to school in Paris.
B. Met Gallaudet, went to school in Paris, moved to America, got married.
C. Went to school in Paris, met Gallaudet, moved to America, got married.
D. Got married, went to school in Paris, met Gallaudet, moved to America.
58.The main idea of this passage could best be stated as ________.
A. Clerc managed his time well, and was able to teach a lot of information in a short period of time
B. Gallaudet was indebted to Clerc for all that he taught him
C. Clerc preferred teaching deaf students to hearing students
D. Clerc, an educated Frenchman, had a great impact on American deaf education

Many animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate
you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it
because it smells good or because i t tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or
taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of
their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.
Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda
eats only one particular type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of
white butterfly (蝴蝶) will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden.
However, most animals have a more varied diet ( 多样化饮食). The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals,
birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season.
Humans have a very varied diet. We oft en eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries
such as France and Britain, people eat food with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their he alth.
Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food,
therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.
59.We can infer from the text that humans and animals ________.
A. depend on one sense in choosing food B. are not satisfied with their food
C. choose food in similar ways D. eat entirely different food
60.Certain animals change their choice of food when ________.
A. the season changes B. the food color changes
C. they move to different places D. they are attracted by different smells
61.We can learn from the last paragraph that ________.
A. food is chosen for a good reason B. French and British food is good
C. some people have few choices of food D. some people care little about healthy diet
C
Nearly everyone knows that humans and most animals possess the five senses of sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste.
This is how they learn about the environment around them. Yet modern biologists have recognized that besides these five, a
human or animal body has other senses — perhaps up to fifteen that signal the brain concerning the body's condition and
needs.
Over the years scholars and scientists have classified the senses in different ways. We own the idea that there are five
senses to the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle. Today's scientists generally group the senses into two kinds, external and
internal.
Together the external and internal senses provide complete senses for the body. The external ones include sight,
hearing, taste and smell. They relay information about what happens outside the body. What we call touch is included under
the somatic senses, which are both internal and external. The somatic senses let us feel not only pressure, hot, cold, and pain
from external sources, but also hunger, thirst, fatigue (疲劳), balance, and muscle tension from within the body.
Both external and internal senses depend on the nervous system. Both operate in much the same way. Every sense h as
special cell receptors, which are connected to nerve cells. Receptors for the external senses are localized in a few areas, such
as the retina (视网膜) of the eye for sight and tongue for taste. Internal sense receptors are found in muscles and various
organs, such as the heart and stomach. When stimulated, a receptor sends nerve impulses to the brain. This causes a
response.
The senses give us both warning signals and pleasure. If a fire begins at night in a bedroom, one's sense organs send
messages to the brain. They report the smell and heat that help us detect whether foods are beneficial or harmful. Hunger
pangs (剧痛) informs us that it is mealtime, and the pleasurable sensation of a full stomach lets us know that we have had
enough.
62.The idea that there are five senses was proposed by ________.
A. ancient scientists B. Aristotle C. today's scientists D. everyone
63.The underlined word “somatic” is the closest in meaning to “________”.
A. external B. of the body C. internal D. within the body
64.Both internal sense and external sense receptors ________.
A. have their own systems B. are connected together
C. send information to the brain D. are found in organs
65.A person knows about the quality of foods because he has ________.
A. a full stomach B. the pleasurable sensation
C. a special feeling D. senses of smell and taste
D
Sydney — A shark savaged a schoolboy's leg while he was surfing with his father at a beach in Sydney on February 23.
It was the third shark attack along the coast of Australia's largest city in a month.
The 15yearold boy and his father were in the water off Avalon, on Sydney's northern beaches, around dawn when he
was attacked. The city's beaches are packed with locals and tourists during the summer months.
“ The father heard a scream and turned to see his son thrashing( 激 烈 扭 动 ) about in the water,” police said.
“Fortunately, the shark swam away and the boy was helped to the shore by his father.”
Lifesaving Club spokesman Nick Miller said ， “ It got him around the top of his left leg and the father came and
dragged him out of water.”He said the boy was bleeding heavily when he was brought to the shore. “There was a lot of pain,
as you could imagine.” The teenager was airlifted to hospital for treatment for leg injuries.
Police said the bites “cut through to the bone”， but the boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures( 骨折). He
was in a stable condition now.
Several beaches were closed after the attack. Water police and lifeguards were searching for the shark, while police
hoped to identify its species by the shape of the bite marks. But they said it was too early to say what type of shark attacked
the boy. “I don't even know if he saw it.” Miller said.
Many shark species live in the waters off Sydney's beaches, but attacks on humans are still relatively rare. However,
there were two attacks on successive days earlier this month, one on a navy diver in Sydney harbor, not far from the famous
Opera House, and the other on a surfer at the city's world-famous Bondi beach.
Fishermen say shark numbers are on the rise. There is a ban on commercial fishing in the harbor, which has increased
fish stocks. Marine experts also claim environmental protection has created a cleaner environment, attracting sharks closer
to the shore as they chase fish. Many shark species, including the Great White—the man-eaters made famous in Steven
Spielberg's Jaws — are protected in Australian waters.
66.The report mainly tells us ________.
A. shark attacks on humans are on the rise
B. sharks attacked humans three times in one month
C. a boy was attacked by a shark at a Sydney beach
D. shark numbers are increasing in the waters off Sydney's beaches
67.The underlined word “savaged” in the first paragraph probably means “________”.
A. attracted B. dragged C. bit D. packed
68.What do we know about the city of Sydney from the passage?
A. It is one of the largest cities in Australia.
B. Sydney harbor is not far from the famous Opera House.
C. There are many locals and tourists on its coast all the year round.
D. There are few shark species in the waters off Sydney's beaches.
69.About the injury of the boy we know that ________.
A. he was losing much blood when he was dragged out
B. he was very nervous when he was sent to hospital
C. he may be in danger of losing his leg
D. he was injured in the right leg
70.All the following are the causes of Australia's sharks' increasing EXCEPT that ________.
A. environmental protection has created a cleaner environment
B. a ban on commercial fishing has increased fish numbers
C. man y shark species are protected in Australian waters
D. the film Jaws has made the Great White famous
八、任务型阅读
Many people have trouble with reading. Reading is a process of the brain where you look at words on a page, and your
mind sees the patterns of characters and understands the meaning in them. If you develop good reading skills, it'll be very
helpful to your future. Aren't your school teachers always saying “Read more books！”？
Read as much as you are able. Start with titles, names, or other larger print items that you may know or ever thought
about. When you start getting bored or need a break, take one. Reading should be fun and enjoyable, don't force it. After
your break, return to where you were, and continue.
Read the page carefully. Don't rush, take your time. Most people think that skimming the pages is a way of fast reading,
but this definitely not true.
Use context clues to find out a word's meaning. Context clues are when a person figures out the meaning of a word by
seeing how the word w as used in a sentence. For example, you were reading the following sentence and wanted to know
what “pessimist” means: My mother is always happy and optimistic , the total opposite of my brother, the pessimist. So from
the sentence, you can gather that “pessimist” means the opposite of happy. If you find a really difficult word, use the
dictionary!
Reread! If you don't understand what you are reading, read over the sentence(s) again. Try reading the words out loud
to yourself. If you still don't understand something, ask a good reader nearby to explain the sentence(s) to you, or simply
pick up a book that is easier to read and more proper to your reading level. Feel free to use your finger as a pointer. It will
keep your eyes focused on the line you are reading, improving your understanding!
Keep reading! Try to read as much as you can in your free time. Reading will help you in lots of ways; your vocabulary
will become larger and you will notice your grades change for the better in school. Have fun reading!
To get the most comprehension, avoid lying down while reading. While reading in bed can help you relax and fall
asleep, you can remember more information by having a good posture (姿势) while reading.
