Directions: There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Years ago our cities were full of cars, buses and trucks. Now the streets are completely congested (拥挤的) and it is very difficult to drive a car along them. Drivers must stop at hundreds of traffic lights. What are our cities going to be like in ten or twenty years? Will enormous (巨大) motorways be built across them? With big motorways cutting across them, full of noisy, dirty cars and lorries, our cities are going to be awful places. How can we solve the problem?
There are some good ideas to reduce the use of private cars. In 1989, for example, the authorities in Rome began an interesting experiment: passengers on the city buses did not have to pay for their tickets.
In Stockholm there was another experiment: people paid very little for a season ticket to travel on any bus, trolley bus, train or tram in all the city.
In many cities now some streets are closed to vehicles, and pedestrians are safe there.
In London there is another experiment: part of the street is for buses only, so the buses can travel fast. There are no cars or taxies in front of them.

1. What the writer worries about in a big city is______.

A.the number of traffic lights
B.the shortage of buses
C.the lack of motorways
D.the traffic congestion

A B C D

参见第一段。

2. What city once experimented with a very cheap bus service?

A.London.
B.Rome.
C.Stockholm.
D.None of the above.

A B C D

3. In many cities pedestrians are now much safer because______.

A.no traffic is allowed on some streets
B.traffic is computer-controlled
C.cars move very slowly
D.only one way streets are open to traffic

A B C D

参见第四段。单词close是“关闭”的意思。

4. In London, how does they solve the problem of the traffic congestion?

A.They take a completely-free bus service.
B.They experimented a very cheap bus service.
C.Part of the street is for buses only.
D.They closed the streets to cars.

A B C D

参见最后一段。

Concerning money or anything else, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect a power struggle. Conflicts between parent and child often center around the same issue. As children enter adolescence, they begin to demand greater freedom to go where they please, do what they please, and make decisions without parental interference. Many American parents do not know how to deal with their teenagers and seek advice from books, lectures, and parent-training courses. Parents want to maintain a friendly relationship with their teenagers and also want to guide them so that their behavior will be whatever the parents consider proper and constructive. But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values, parents and children often disagree about what is important and what is right. Arguments may concern such unimportant matters as styles of dress or hairdos. But quarrels may also concern school work, after school jobs, decisions, use of the family car, dating, and sexual behavior. Some families have serious problems with teenagers who drop out of school, run away from home, or use illegal drugs. Because so much publicity is given to the problem teenager, one gets the impression that all teenagers are troublemakers. Actually, relatively few adolescents do anything wrong, and nearly all grow up into "solid citizens" who fulfill most of their parents' expectations. In fact, recent studies show that the "generation gap" is narrowing. The vast majority of teenagers share most of their parents' values and ideas. Many parents feel that they get along with their adolescents quite well.

1. According to the writer, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect ______.

A.feelings of hatred

A.they have different styles of life
B.they hate each other
C.parents think that their children are troublemakers
D.they are in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values

[解析] 本题属推理分析题。文章中间的“But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values”表明：在一社会和道德价值迅速变化的社会里，父母与孩子常常争吵。

In the 1840s, the Mormons (摩门教信徒), who are a religious group, travelled west searching for a new home. Many Mormons lived in the state of Illinois, but they had been badly treated and finally were forced to leave.
As the Mormons travelled through the desert, they became discouraged. Then they saw a strange tree. The tree's branches stretched out like arms. The Mormons thought the tree looked like Joshua, a hero from the Bible. The Mormons thought the arms of the tree were telling them to continue on their way; so they did.
They found a new home in what is now the state of Utah. In Utah they saw trees like the one in the desert. They called them "Joshua trees."
The Joshua tree was very useful. The Native Americans of the West used almost all its parts. They ate not only the fruit of the tree, but also its seeds and white blossoms. They used its leaves for shoes. From its roots they made baskets and got colours for their clothes.
Settlers in the West used the Joshua tree for firewood and fences. Unfortunately, they often needed to cut down the trees. Some of the trees were as tall as 50 feet (15.6 metres). These trees were 700 or 800 years old. The Joshua tree grows very slowly. It grows only about one inch (2.54 centimetres) a year.
By the beginning of the 1900s, most Joshua trees had been cut down. People were sad that this strange tree had almost disappeared. In 1936, the Joshua Tree National Park was established in California. It has many kinds of interesting desert plants, including, of course, many Joshua trees. None of these Joshua trees are 50 feet. But perhaps some day they will be.

1. From the first paragraph we can get to know that ______ .

I fell in love with England because it was quaint (古雅)—all those little houses, looking terribly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls' houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. I've slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it's an ugly town now.
Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.
I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You're forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.
As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p.m. I used to use it, but now I'm afraid.
The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that's typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.

1. The writer doesn't like London because she______.

A.is not used to the life there now
B.has lived there for seventeen years
C.prefers to live in an old-fashioned house
D.has to be polite to everyone she meets there

A B C D

[解题指要] 本题问作者不喜欢伦敦的原因，考查的是对文章主旨大意的理解。作者在第一段中说她原来是非常喜欢伦敦的。但是在那儿住了17年以后却改变了看法。以下四段谈到由于看到礼貌、公共场合、安全、亲情等几个方面的变化，她对伦敦感到不那么习惯了。因此A选项is not used to the life there now为正确答案。

2. Where do people usually meet their friends in England?

A.In a cafe.
B.In a restaurant.
C.In a nightclub.
D.In a pub.

A B C D

[解题指要] 这道题问在伦敦人们通常在什么地方会面，是细节考查题。答案可以从第三段第四句话To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub.得出。答案应为D选项。其他选项均不合文意。细节题指原文提到某事物、某现象或理论，题目针对原文具体叙述本身发问。解题时可使用“定位法”，即根据题干或选项中的线索词回原文，找到相关句，与选项相比较后，确定答案。

3. The underlined part "it" in Paragraph 4 refers to______.

A.a taxi
B.the money
C.a bomb
D.public transport

A B C D

[解题指要] 本题为指代猜词题。指代题为猜词题的一种。代词猜词的原则是：就近指代。代词指代在性、数(单数或复数)、格(主格或宾格)以及位置等方面与之接近的名词。就位置而言，如上所述，代词所指代的名词通常在本句与上句之中。此外，逻辑和意义也是衡量的标准，也就是说，正确的答案应该从逻辑、思想内容上和语法搭配上都通顺。本题考查指代词“it”的含义。根据此句前面一句I spend a bomb on taxis because 1 will not take public transport after 10 p.m.意思是“我花费很多钱乘坐出租汽车，因为晚上10点以后我不敢乘坐公共交通车”。接下来就是本句I used to use it，it显然指代的足上句里的public transport(公共交通)，即应选D。 bomb在这里意思是a lot of money。

Shoes are outer coverings for the foot. They have soles, and most have heels. The upper part of most shoes extend no higher than the ankle. Boots are footwear that reach beyond the ankle. People wear shoes to protect their feet from harsh weather, sharp objects, and uncomfortable surfaces. Shoes are also an important part of people's clothing. As a result, fashion often determines the style of shoes that individuals wear. The desire to be fashionable has led to many unusual shoe styles. In the 1300's, many European men wore shoes called crackowes, which had an extremely long toe. From the 1300's to the 1700's, some European women wore shoes with really thick soles causing walking to be virtually impossible without support. Shoes once worn in the Orient were connected to a stilt(高跷) as high as six inches.
Traditionally, most shoes are made of leather. But many other materials are now used. Including canvas, velvet, and synthetic substances such as plastics. Footwear materials and style vary somewhat, depending on climate, custom, or other differences. Farmers in Netherlands often wear heavy wooden shoes that protect their feet from the damp environment while Japanese wear shoes outside their home but prefer soft slippers at home. In fact, people in some regions often wear foot coverings other than shoes. Some wear sandals during the hot summer and switch to warm boots for the cold winter.

1. What is the main topic of the passage?

A.The history of the shoes.
B.Shoes around the world.
C.The definition of shoes.
D.Shoes and fashion.

C.People in Japan do not like to wear shoes.

A Photo Show
GUANGMING HIGH SCHOOL, SHANGHAI. Later in October, a photo show was held in our school. It was a great success! All the photos were taken by the students themselves. There were both black-and-white and color photos, presenting our school life, the beauty of nature, festival activities and so on. All the works of arts were on show in the reading-room in the main building. Every day, many students went to enjoy it and they were surprised to find that the pictures there were so wonderful. Those whose photos were chosen the best were given unexpected prizes. In short, this photo show really made our life colorful.
