1、Gun Rights in the USImmediately after the shooting at Virginia Tech University, Americans gathered to mourn (致哀) the dead. The president ａｎｄ　the state governer both hurried there to share the grief. But the majority of Americans still cling to their right to own weapons.Strictly speaking, the US is not the only country here gun violence has destroyed lives, families ａｎｄ　communities in everyday circumstance. But the US is one of the few countries that seem unwilling ａｎｄ　politically incapable of doing anything serious to stop it.In countries like Britain ａｎｄ　Canada, the government adopted strict gun control soon after serious gun violence incidents. US leaders, however, are held hostage by the gun lobby (院外活动集团) ａｎｄ　the electoral (选举) system.The powerful National Rifle Association, the majｏｒsupporter of gun rights in the US, is too strong fｏｒany party to take on. Most Republicans oppose gun control anyway. Over the years, the Democrats have found that they can either campaign fｏｒgun control ｏｒwin power, not both, they prefer power.According to the US Bureau of Justice Statistics, firearm (火器) incidents accounted ____ nine percent of the 4.7 million violent crimes in 2005. So although opinion polls show most Americans want stricter gun laws, many people don\'t want to give up their arms they keep to protect themselves.Dave Hancock, a Virginia gun lover, is one example. In an interview he said, "If one professｏｒin the Virginia incident had been carrying a legal weapon, they might have been able to stop all this. "In his opinion, the massacre (大屠杀) is an argument fｏｒmore people to carry weapons, not fewer.Americans\' clinging to the right to bear arms is not just a fear of crime, but a mistrust of government, commented UK\'s Guardian newspaper.One Virginia resident, who had a permit to carry a concealed (隐藏的) firearm, told the Guardian that it was every American\'s responsibility to have a gun."Each person," he said, "should not rely solely on the government fｏｒprotection."【单选题】

2、One-Room SchoolsOne-room schools are part of the heritage of the United States, ａｎｄ　the mention of them makes people feel a longing fｏｒ"the way things were." One - room schools are an endangered species (种类), however. Fｏｒmore than a hundred years, one - room schools have been systematically shut down ａｎｄ　their students were sent away to centralized schools. As recently as 1930 there were 149,000 one - room schools in the United States. By 1970 there were 1,800. Today, of the nearly 800 remaining one - room schools, more than 350 are in Nebraska. The rest are spread through a few other states that have on their road maps wide - open spaces between towns.Now that there are hardly any left, educators are beginning to think that maybe there is something yet to be learned from one - room schools, something that served the pioneers that might serve as well today. Progressive educators have come up with new names like "peer -ｇｒｏｕｐteaching" ａｎｄ　"multi - age grouping" fｏｒeducational procedures that occur naturally in the one - room schools. In a one - room school the children teach each other because the teacher is busy part of the time teaching someone else. The fourth grader can work at the fifth grade level in math ａｎｄ　the third grade level in English without the bad name associated with being left back ｏｒthe pressures of being skipped (超过) ahead. A youngster with a learning disability can find his ｏｒher own level without being separated from other pupils. A few hours in a small school that has only one classroom ａｎｄ　it becomes clear why so many parents feel that one of the advantages of living in Nebraska is that their children have to go to a one - room school.One - room schools are in danger of disappearing because ____. 【单选题】

A.there has been a trend towards centralization

B.they cannot get top students

C.they exist only in one state

D.children have to teach themselves

正确答案:A

答案解析:本题有一定的难度，考生不太好定位，需要认真读第一段找答案。第一段第三句谈到，一百多年来，大教室学校逐渐被关闭，学生被统一分到政府的集中化学校，回来看选项，A是近义解释，是最佳答案。做本题时可以先看选项，得到信息提示。

3、Indian\'s NamesEach Indian was supposed to keep his birth name until he was old enough to earn one fｏｒhimself. But his playmates would always give him a name of their own. No matter what his parents called him, his childhood friends would use the name they had chosen. Often it was not pleasing, such as Bow Legs ｏｒBad Boy. But sometimes a name fit so well that the youngster found it difficult to shake it off. If he could not earn a better one from a war later, he could be stuck with a name like Bow Legs fｏｒthe rest of his life.The Indian earned his real name when he was old enough fｏｒhis first fight against the enemy. His life name depended on how he acted during this first battle. When he returned from the war, the whole tribe would gather ａｎｄ　observe the ceremony in which he would be given his name by the chief. If he had done well, he would get a good name. Otherwise he might be called Crazy Wolf ｏｒMan-Afraid-of-a Horse. So an Indian\'s name told his record ｏｒdescribed the kind of man he was.A man was given many chances to improve his name, however, if in a later battle he was brave in fighting against the enemy, he was given a better name. Some of our great fighters had as many as twelve names, all good ａｎｄ　each better than the last.An Indian\'s names belonged to him fｏｒthe rest of his life. No one else could use them. Even he himself could not give them away because names were assigned by the tribe, not the family. So no man could pass on his name unless the chief ａｎｄ　the tribe asked him to do so.Sometimes an Indian would be asked to give his name to a son who had performed a noticeable deed. I know of only three ｏｒfour times when this happened. It is the rarest honｏｒfｏｒa person -the honｏｒof assuming his father\'s name.If an Indian had more than ten names, it meant that_____.【单选题】

A.many people in the tribe liked him.

B.he was a great fighter.

C.he had a lot of friends.

D.he had fought in fewer than ten battles.

正确答案:B

答案解析:由第3段可知印度人有很多机会改进名字，如果下一次战争中表现出色就会得到更好的名字。一些出色的斗士可能有12个名字，而且每一个都比上一个好。有10多个名字的人一定是了不起的斗士，所以选B。

4、Rodman met with Tony to try to settle the dispute over his contract.【单选题】

5、Ceasing to Wear TiesIt\'s useless. It\'s dirty. It spreads disease. That\'s why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called fｏｒhospital doctors to stop wearing ties.That leads to another question. Why does anyone wear a tie? Ties serve no purpose. They do not cover any part of your body ａｎｄ　keep you warm. They always seem to get covered in food stains. Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie. It lets everyone know what you just ate.Ties have an odd history. Soldiers from Croatia, in Eastern Europe, served as mercenaries (雇佣军) in various conflicts in the 17th century. They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck. Known as cravats(围巾), these became a popular fashion item in France ａｎｄ　eventually evolved into the tie.It\'s an interesting story, but it doesn\'t tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth ｏｒsilk around their necks. The answer seems to be about identification(身份证明 ). In the 19th-century Britain, ties were used by universities, military regiments (团), sports clubs, schools ａｎｄ　gentleman\'s clubs. Each tie was in a particular ｓｅｔof colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization. Wearing ties was also the mark of Britain\'s most powerful classes. That made the tie itself a symbol of power ａｎｄ　respect. ａｎｄ　that led it to be adopted by a much larger class-the business class.You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery, so wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living, rather than his hands. It showed you were serious. It showed you were a professional. It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one. It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck. This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world.Is there a future fｏｒties? The signs are not promising. Many political leaders, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, now go without ties.People wore different ties in Britain in the 19th century to show that________.【单选题】

A.they were workmen

B.they were members of different organizations

C.hospital doctors stop wearing ties

D.who does not always wear a tie

E.who served as mercenaries in many conflicts in the 19th century

F.who does not want to live like a king

正确答案:B

答案解析:根据题干中的线索词in Britain in the 19th century可定位到第四段第三句：In the 19th-century Britain, ties were used by universities, military regiments（团），sports clubs，schools ａｎｄ　gentleman\'s clubs.该句大意是：在19世纪的英国，不同的团体佩戴不同的领带。其目的在后一句中得到了表述，该句是：Each tie was in a particular ｓｅｔof colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization. 由此可知不同颜色的领带表明佩戴者属于不同团体的成员。B选项they were members of different organizations与其表达一致，故B为正确答案。

6、Mary rarely speaks to Susan.【单选题】

7、A Carrot a Day Keeps Cancer AwayAmong all the malignancies, lung cancer is the biggest killer: more than 100,000 Americans a year die of the disease. Giving up smoking is one of obvious way to reduce the risk, but another answer may lie in the kitchen. According to a new report, even heavy smokers may be protected from developing lung cancer by a simple dietary measure: a daily portion of carrots, spinach ｏｒany other vegetable ｏｒfruit containing a form of vitamin A called carotene.The finding, published in the British medical journal The Lancet, is part of a long-range investigation of diet ａｎｄ　disease. Since 1957 a team of American researchers has monitored the dietary habits ａｎｄ　medical histories of 2,000 middle-aged men employed by the Western Electric Co. in Chicago. Led by Dr. Richard Shelelle of Chicago\'s Rush-Presbyterian, St. Luke\'s Medical Center, the researchers recently began to sort out the links between the subjects\' dietary patterns ａｎｄ　cancer. Other studies of animals ａｎｄ　humans have suggested that vitamin A offers some protection against lung cancer. The correlation seemed logical, since vitamin A is essential fｏｒthe growth of the epithelial (上皮的) tissue that lines the airways of the lungs.Vegetables: But the earlier research did not distinguish between two different forms of the vitamin. "Preformed" vitamin A, known as retinol, is found mainly in liver ａｎｄ　dairy products like milk, cheese, butter ａｎｄ　eggs. But vitamin A is also made in the body from carotene, which is abundant in a variety of vegetables ａｎｄ　fruits, including carrots, spinach, squash, tomatoes, sweet potatoes ａｎｄ　apples.In the Western Electric study, Shekelle ａｎｄ　his colleagues found little correlation between the incidence of lung cancer ａｎｄ　the consumption of foods containing preformed vitamin A, but when they examined the data on carotene intake, they discovered a significant relationship. Among the488 men who had the lowest level of carotene consumption, there were fourteen cases of lung cancer, in aｇｒｏｕｐof the same size that ate the most carotene, only two cases developed. The apparent protective effect of carotene held up even fｏｒlongtime smokers but to a lesser degree.Further studies will be necessary before the link between lung cancer ａｎｄ　carotene can be firmly established. In the meantime, researchers warn against taking large numbers of vitamin A pills, because the tablets contain a form of the chemical that can be extremely toxic in high doses. Instead, they advise a well-balance diet that includes foods rich in carotene. Fｏｒa smoker, a half-cup of carrots every day might possibly make the difference between life ａｎｄ　death.Where is carotene present?【单选题】

A.tomatoes

B.carrots

C.squash

D.all of the above

正确答案:D

答案解析:根据第3段，“维生素A在体内的产生源于胡萝卜素，胡萝卜素在蔬菜、水果中大量存在，包括胡萝卜、菠菜、西葫芦、西红柿和苹果”。因此答案是D。

8、WealthAmong the more colorful characters of Leadville\'s golden age were H. AW. Tabｏｒａｎｄ　his second wife, Elizabeth McCourt, better known as "Baby Doe". Their history is fast becoming one of the legends of the Old West. Horace Austin school teacher in Vermont. With his first wife ａｎｄ　two children he left Vermont by covered wagon in 1855 to homestead in Kansas. Perhaps he did not find farming to his liking, ｏｒperhaps he was lured by rumors of fortunes to be made in Colorado mines. At any rate, a few years later he moved west to the small Colorado mining camp known as California Gulch, which he later renamed Leadville when he became its leading citizen. "Great deposits of lead are sure to be found here. " he said.As it turned out, it was silver, not lead, that was to make Leadville\'s fortune ａｎｄ　wealth. Tabｏｒknew little about mining himself, so he opened a general store, which sold everything from boots to salt, flour, ａｎｄ　tobacco. It was his custom to "grubstake" prospective miners, in other words, to supply them with food ａｎｄ　supplies, ｏｒ"grub", while they looked fｏｒore, in return fｏｒwhich he would get a share in the mine if one was discovered. He did this fｏｒa number of years, but no one that he aided ever found anything of value.Finally one day in the year 1878, so the story goes, two miners came in ａｎｄ　asked fｏｒ"grub". Tabｏｒhad decided to quit supplying it because he had lost too much money that way. These were persistent, however, ａｎｄ　Tabｏｒwas too busy to argue with them. "Oh help yourself. One more time won\'t make any difference," He said ａｎｄ　went on selling shoes ａｎｄ　hats to other customers. The two miners took $17 worth of supplies, in gave Tabｏｒa one-third interest in their findings. They picked a barren place on the mountainside ａｎｄ　began to dig, After nine days they struck a rich vein of silver. Tabｏｒbought the shares of the other two men, ａｎｄ　so the mine belonged to him alone. This mine, known as the "Pittsburgh Mine," made l,300,000 fｏｒTabｏｒin return fｏｒhis $17 investment.Later Tabｏｒbought the Matchless Mine on another barren hillside just outside the town for$117,000. This turned out to be even more fabulous than the Pittsburgh, yielding $35,000 worth of silver per day at one time. Leadville grew. Tabｏｒbecame its first mayor, ａｎｄ　later became lieutenant governｏｒof the state.The word "grubstake" in paragraph 2 means_____.【单选题】

A.to supply miners with food ａｎｄ　supplies

B.to open a general store

C.to do one\'s contribution to the development of the mine

D.to supply miners with food ａｎｄ　supplies ａｎｄ　in return get a share in the mine, if one was discovered

正确答案:D

答案解析:第2段中grubstake的词义与D所述内容是相同的，即“供给探矿者资金、衣物、食品以及其他物品”。

9、How to Be a Successful Business personHave you ever wondered why some people are successful in business ａｎｄ　others are not? Here\'s a story about one successful business person. He started out washing dishes ａｎｄ　today he owns 168 restaurants.Zubair Kazi was born in Bhatkal, a small town in southwest India. His dream was to be an airplane pilot, ａｎｄ　when he was 16 years old, he learned to fly a small plane.At the age of 23 ａｎｄ　with just a little money in his pocket, Mr. Kazi moved to the United States. He hoped to get a job in the airplane industry in California. Instead, he ended up working fｏｒa company that rented cars.While Mr. Kazi was working at the car rental (租赁的) company, he frequently ate at a nearby KFC restaurant. To save money on food, he decided to get a job with KFC. Fｏｒtwo months, he worked as a cook\'s assistant. His job was to clean the kitchen ａｎｄ　help the cook. "I didn\'t like it," Mr. Kazi says, "but I always did the best I could."One day, Mr. Kazi\'s two co - workers failed to come to work. That day, Mr. Kazi did the work of all three people in the kitchen. This really impressed the owners of the restaurant.A few months later, the owners needed a manager fｏｒa new restaurant. They gave the job to Mr. Kazi. He worked hard as the manager ａｎｄ　soon the restaurant was making a profit.A few years later, Mr. Kazi heard about a restaurant that was losing money.

答案解析:本题是词义题，难度不大，也是送分题，阅读理解题中的词汇题大多可以通过直接翻查同义词词典直接确定答案。可以确定，mess指“脏乱”，所以答案是B。

10、How to Interview PeopleInterviewing (采访) is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease when you try it fｏｒthe first time, ａｎｄ　probably you\'ll never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he ｏｒshe may be too shy to reveal. But at least half of the skill is mechanical. The rest is instinct, which can all be learned with experience.The basic tools fｏｒan interview are paper ａｎｄ　two ｏｒthree well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook ｏｒpaper out of sight until you need it. There\'s nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-taking pad. Both of you need time to get to know each other. Take a while just to chat, judging what sort of person you\'re dealing with, getting him ｏｒher to trust you.Never go into an interview without doing whatever homework you can. If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If it\'s an actor, know what plays he has been in. ______ Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions ａｎｄ　have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. This fear is almost 103 percent unnecessary. Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him. Most men ａｎｄ　women lead lives that are uninteresting, ａｎｄ　they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to listen.This doesn\'t necessarily mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, ａｎｄ　they will get used to the process awkwardly, perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. Come back another day; it will go better. You will both even begin to enjoy it-proof that you aren\'t forcing your victim to do something he doesn\'t really want to.【单选题】

A.Come back another day; it will go better.

B.But at least half of the skill is mechanical.

C.As one philosopher interviewed in the film notes, they lack irony.

D.You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.

E.This fear is almost 102 percent unnecessary.

F.Both of you need time to get to know each other.

正确答案:D
