分析 這篇短文為我們講述了一個(gè)關(guān)于Frank的故事．Frank在公司里總是挨老板的罵．有一天他收到了一個(gè)足球賭博公司的信，信上說(shuō)他中了很多錢．Frank很高興，在老板又要責(zé)罵他的時(shí)候，他毫不猶豫的進(jìn)行了反擊．但是那天晚上兩個(gè)人來(lái)找Frank，說(shuō)那個(gè)足球賭博公司可能寄錯(cuò)了信．

解答 51．A  推理判讀題．根據(jù)文章的第一句話Frank Smithson woke up and got up to turn off the alarm clock，F(xiàn)rank醒來(lái)關(guān)掉鬧鐘，由此我們可以推斷Frank是一個(gè)比較懶惰的人．B  選項(xiàng)說(shuō)他是一個(gè)幸運(yùn)的人，由故事的結(jié)尾我們可以知道他并不幸運(yùn)；C選項(xiàng)說(shuō)他賺了很多錢，由故事的結(jié)尾我們也可以知道這不是真的；D選項(xiàng)說(shuō)他和老板相處的好，由文章的意思我們知道這是不對(duì)的．故選A．
52．A  推理判斷題 根據(jù)前文可知，F(xiàn)rank以為自己中了大獎(jiǎng)，再也不用在公司做工作掙那點(diǎn)錢了，所以他敢對(duì)老板吼，故答案為A
53．D  推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章的最后一段，當(dāng)Frank聽(tīng)到敲門聲時(shí)，他rush to the door，他沖到了門那，可見(jiàn)他非常的興奮，加上他以為自己中了大獎(jiǎng)，所以他應(yīng)該是以為是他的朋友們來(lái)祝賀他來(lái)了．故選D．A意為有人來(lái)道歉；B意為他的同事來(lái)安慰他；C意為他的鄰居來(lái)詢問(wèn)足球彩票的事．這些選項(xiàng)都不符合文意．
54．A 推理判讀題．當(dāng)聽(tīng)到…there's been a terrible mistake…，有一個(gè)可怕的錯(cuò)誤的時(shí)候，F(xiàn)rank感覺(jué)怎樣．我們首先推斷一下這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤是什么，之前我們知道Frank以為自己中了獎(jiǎng)，但現(xiàn)在這個(gè)足球賭博公司的人卻說(shuō)他們犯了一個(gè)錯(cuò)誤，那么這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤肯定跟他的中獎(jiǎng)有關(guān)，既然錯(cuò)了，那么也就是說(shuō)其實(shí)Frank并沒(méi)有中獎(jiǎng)，所以這個(gè)時(shí)候Frank應(yīng)該是感到很失望，故選A．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 做閱讀時(shí)經(jīng)常犯錯(cuò)的主要原因是，僅憑讀過(guò)文章后殘留在腦海中的一絲印象來(lái)勾選答案，這樣便很容易掉入出題人故意設(shè)布下的題目陷阱．所謂閱讀理解，對(duì)于題目的理解一定要忠實(shí)于原文，因此，每一道題都應(yīng)該與原文作全面的對(duì)比與核查，再得出答案．也就是說(shuō)，閱讀理解的每一道題目，在原文都應(yīng)該有明確的出處，我們把這一出處叫做原文相關(guān)句，（1）排除與原文相關(guān)句主題不一致的選項(xiàng)（2）排除與原文相關(guān)句態(tài)度相反的選項(xiàng)  （3）排除用于過(guò)于極端或負(fù)面的選項(xiàng)（4）注意結(jié)合文章主旨和主題去排除．

19．Too much eating．Too many unhealthy foods．Too many advertisements for food．Too little activity．Different explanations are offered for America's weight problem-a problem increasingly shared by other countries．Almost one-fifth of American children and teenagers are overweight．
Schools have been urged to increase physical education，an important tool for public health．And many have．Yet now comes a study showing an increase in the number of injuries in"phys ed"class．Injuries increased one hundred fifty percent between nineteen ninety-seven and two thousand seven．
The study involved injuries treated in hospital emergency departments．Only two percent were serious．
The researchers did not try to identify the causes of the increase，but they have some theories．
Lara McKenzie from Ohio State University was the lead researcher．She says one possibility is a decrease in the number of school nurses during the period they studied．For example，a two thousand four study showed that the number of school nurses nationally failed to meet federal guidelines．Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital．
Another possible reason for more injuries is a change in the traditional idea of physical education．This"New P．E．"expands the kinds of sports that are taught．But activities that some schools offer now，like rock climbing and skateboarding，can also expand the risks，says Cheryl Richardson．She is with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education．
Also，she says not all states require P．E．teachers to be specially trained．Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions．
Cheryl Richardson also points to one of the study's findings-that injuries are often the result of contact with a person or a structure．This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely．
Six activities produced seventy percent of all injuries：running，basketball，football，volleyball，soccer and gymnastics．
The researchers say larger class sizes are another possible reason for the increase in injuries．Larger classes can mean less supervision．The National Association for Sport and Physical Education says twenty to thirty students in a P．E．class should be the limit．
（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS）

78．Many schools deal with the problem that more children are overweight byincreasing physical education．
79．What's the result of expanding the kinds of sports taught in school？The risks of getting injured increase/expand．．
80．P．E．teachers without special training are more likely toneglect unsafe conditions．
81．After reading the passage，could you give at least two suggestions to an American school on how to reduce injuries in"phys ed"classes？Increasing the number of school nurses； avoiding high risk activities．

20．Britain's most popular lie has been discovered，with one in four people admitting using"Sorry I had no signal"when returning a missed mobile phone call，a survey found．
According to a recent survey people usually use this little white lie after they hit the"ignore"button when their mobile rang．The second most common fib is"I haven't got any cash on me"when asked for money by beggars．Modern technology is a major excuse in many of our lies with"I didn't get your text"in 18th，"Our server was down"in 20th and"My battery died"in 26th place．
Researchers found the average Briton tells on average four lies every day or almost 1500 every year．One in three Britons have lied about their weight，a quarter have fibbed about the amount of debt they are in and 30 percent have bent the truth about the amount of exercise they do．
Almost a quarter of men have told their wife or girlfriend they look good in an outfit，despite thinking the opposite．More than 40 percent of women have admitted lying about how much new clothes actually cost while 30 percent have fibbed about how much they've had to drink．
Three quarters of people think women are better liars．The research found 46 per cent of girls have been caught lying，compared to 58 of men．Men tell the most fibs，coming out with five every day compared to women who lie just three times．
A spokesman for one poll，which carried out the research of 4，300 adults，said，"As a nation we are obsessed with trying to be nice and not upsetting people．Often little white lies are used to cover what we actually want to say．"
"Most of these were considered either completely harmless or necessary depending on the situation in which they are delivered．"He added，"It was sad to see a string of compliments in the top 50，but once again in many cases perhaps it is better to compliment（恭維） with a lie than destroy someone with the truth．"
26．What is the best title for the passage？A
A．The most popular British lies         B．British people like to lie
C．The reasons British people lie        D．Technology makes us lie
27．According to the research，what do women most frequently lie about？D

28．Which of the following statement is true according to the research？B
A．Three quarters of women are better liars
B．Men lie more often than women．
C．More men are better liars than women
D．More women lie than men．
29．The underlined phrase"obsessed with"is closest in meaning toA．
A．very concerned with                  
B．surprised about
C．opposed to                           
D．not interested in
30．Why do people usually lie according to the one poll？C

1．Indian's snake charmers （耍蛇者） are to be retrained as wildlife teachers under a plan to prevent their unique skills and knowledge from being lost．The charmers，who make snakes dance to the sound of flutes （笛子），used to be a traditional feature of Indian life，performing in towns and villages，until they were banned in 1972to control the trade in snake skins．
The government is now considering a plan to train the snake charmers，as they are known，to visit schools and zoos to tell children about forests and wildlife．There is also a proposal to set up a"dial a snake charmer"service to help householders to deal with unwelcome intruders （入侵者）．
"For generations they have been a feature of Indian life but now they can't earn a living for fear of arrest，"said Behar Dutt，a professor behind the plans，"if a policeman doesn't catch them，animal rights activists report them．"
Many snake charmers have continued to work clandestinely since the ban，despite the threat of up to three years in jail．But their trademark cloth-covered baskets，hanging from a bamboo pole carried across their shoulders，make them an easy target （目標(biāo)） for police．
The fate of Shisha Nath，56，from Badarpur，a village just outside of Delhi，is typical of practitioners （從業(yè)者） of the dying art．"I used to earn enough to support my family and send my children to school，"he said．"Now it's hard to earn even for a day．My children want to be snake charmers．It's our identity．We love the work．But it's become impossible．"
Next month Dutt's project to train 30snake charmers will begin at a snake park in Pune，western India，where experts will enrich their home-grown skills with some formal knowledge．
More than the law，though，it is the dishonest attitude of their fellow countryman that angers many snake charmers．
"We're disturbed all the time but when people want a snake removed from the house，they rush to us，"said Prakash Nath，who was ordered recently to the home of Sonia Gandhi，the Congress party leader．

60．According to the passage，snake charmers will be retrained as wildlife teachers mainly becauseD．
A．schools need large numbers of such teachers
B．most of them cannot support their families
C．their performances on the street are banned
D．the government plans to save the dying art
61．The purpose of the proposed"dial a snake charmer"in paragraph 2telephone service isD．
A．to give performance of snake dancing
B．to teach householders how to catch and kill snakes
C．to offer cleaning service to wealthy householders
D．to help remove unwanted snakes from the houses

19．"The world's oceans are slowly getting more acidic．"say scientists．The researchers from California report that the change is taking place in response to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere．
         The lowering of the waters'PH value is not great at the moment but could cause a serious threat to current ocean life if it continues，they warn．Ken Caldeira and Michael Wickett，from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory，report their concerns in the journal Nature．Increasing use of oil fuels means more carbon dioxide is going into the air，and most of it will eventually be absorbed by seawater．Once in the water，it reacts to form carbonic acid．Scientists believe that the oceans have already become slightly more acidic over the last century．
         These researchers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by combining what we know about the history of the oceans with computer models of climate change．"This level of acidity will get much more extreme in the future if we continue releasing CO2 into the atmosphere，"said Dr Caldeira．And we predict the amount of future acidity will exceed（超過(guò)） anything we have seen over the last several hundred million years，let alone perhaps after rare disastrous events such as asteroid（小行星） impacts
          However，it is not absolutely clear what that means for ocean life．Most organisms live near the surface，where the greatest PH change would be expected to occur，but deep-ocean life forms may be more sensitive to PH changes．Coral reefs（珊瑚礁） and other organisms whose shells contain calcium carbonate（碳酸鈣） may be particularly affected if the water's acidity levels keep going up，the team predict．They could find it much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower PH．
         In recent years some people have suggested storing carbon dioxide from power station in the deep ocean as a way of dealing with global warming．But Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be re-considered．"Previously，most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing--because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet，and when CO2 is absorbed by the ocean，it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming．"
57．The ocean is becoming more acidic due toC．
A．the lower water PH value                                     
B．the warming atmosphere
C．the higher level of CO2 in the air                         
D．the increasing use of oil fuels
