第三篇
Karen Rusa was a 30-year-old woman and the mother of four children. For the past several months Karen had been experiencing repetitive thoughts that centered around her children's safety. She frequently found herself imagining that a serious accident had occurred;she was unable to put these thoughts out of her mind.On one such occasion she imagined that her son,Alan,had broken his leg playing football at school. There was no reason to believe that an accident had occurred,but she kept thinking about the possibility until she finally called the school to see if Alan was all right. Even after receiving their assurance that he had not been hurt,she described herself as being somewhat surprised when he later arrived home unharmed.Karen also noted that her daily routine was seriously hampered by an extensive series of counting work that she performed throughout each day.Specific numbers come to have a special meaning to her;she found that her preoccupation with these numbers was interfering with her ability to perform everyday activities.One example was grocery shopping. Karen believed that if she selected the first item,some dreadful thing would happen to her first child, if she selected the second item,some unknown disaster wonld fall on her second child, and so on for the four children.Karen's preoccupation with numbers extended to other activities, most notable the pattern in which she smoked cigarettes and drank coffee.If she had one cigarette, she believed that she had to smoke at least four in a row or one of her children would be harmed in some way. If she drank one cup of coffee,she felt compelled to drink four. Karen acknowledged the unreasonableness of these rules,but,nevertheless,maintained that she felt more comfortable,when she observed them earnestly.When she was occasionally in too great a hurry to observe these rules, she experienced considerable anxiety in the form of a subjective feeling of dread and fear. She described herself as tense,uneasy and unable to relax during these periods.Which of the following inferences is most probably true according to the passage?
A:When Karen was in a great hurry to smoke,she would feel much anxiety.
B:If she selected the fourth item on the shelf in a group,the fourth child must experience some unknown disaster.
C:Drinking four cups of coffee would make Karen more comfortable than drinking two cups.
D:Karen was a mother of four sons.答案：C解析：本题是阅读综合理解能力考查题。题目是：以下哪项有可能治疗凯伦的疾病？选项A“她的孩子都完好”；选项B“她停止计数”；选项C“向精神分析学家求助”；选项 D“戒烟”。根据常识判断，我们可确定答案为C。

Britain's Solo Sailor
Ellen MacArthur started sailing when she was eight,going out on sailing trips with her aunt.She loved it
so much that she saved her money for three years to buy her first small sailing boat.When she was 18,she
sailed alone around Britain and won the"Young Sailor of the Year"award.
But Ellen really became famous in 2001.Aged only 24,she was one of the only two women who entered
the Vendee Globe round the world solo race,which lasted 100 days.Despite many problems,she came second
in the race out of 24 competitors and she was given a very warm welcome when she returned.
Ambition and determination have always been a big part of Ellen's personality.When she was younger,
she lived in a kind of hut（棚屋）for three years while she was trying to get sponsorship to compete in a trans-
atlantic race.Then she took a one-way ticket to France,bought a tiny seven meter Class Mini yacht,slept
under it while she was repairing it,and then she raced it 4,000 kilometers across the Atlantic in 1997,alone
for 33 days.
Ellen has had to learn many things,because sailing single-handed means that she has to be her own cap-
tamn,electrician,sailmaker,engineer,doctor,journalist,cameraman and cook.She also has to be very ft,and
because of the dangers of sleeping for long periods of time while she's in the middle of the ocean,she has
trained herself to sleep for about 20 minutes at a time.
And she needs courage.Once,In the middle of the ocean,she had to climb the mast（桅杆）of a boat to
repair the sails一at four o'clock in the morning,with 100 kph winds blowing around her.It took her many
hours to make the repairs;Ellen says:"I was exhausted when I came down.It's hard to describe how it feels
to be up there.It's like trying to hold onto a big pole,which for me is just too big to get my arms around,with
someone kicking you all the time and trying to shake you off."
But in her diary , Ellen also describes moments which make it all worthwhile（值得的）: " A beautiful
sunrise started the day,with black clouds slowly lit by the bright yellow sun.I have a very strong feeling of
pleasure,being out here on the ocean and having the chance to live this.I just feel lucky to be here."According to Paragraph 4,which of the following statements is NOT true?
A:She has trained herself to sleep for about 20 minutes at a time.
B:She has to be her own teacher.
C:She has to learn to repair sails.
D:She has to be very fit.答案：B解析：短文第二段提到，“她是进人Vendee Globe环球个人帆船比赛的两个女选手之一”,“尽 管遇到了许多困难，在24名参赛的选手中她获得了第二名。"D选项与文章内容相符，因此，答案为D。
短文第三段第二句指出：“为了努力获得赞助去参加穿越大西洋的帆船比赛，她在一个 棚屋里住了三年。”选项B中的短语get financial support for a race与文章中的短语get sponsor-ship to compete in a transatlantic race同义。因此，B为正确答案。
solo意为“唯一的；单独的”。 single-handed“单人完成的；独自”。
仔细阅读短文第四段可以判断出选项B“她必须是自己的教师”没有在这一段出现。因此，这个选项不符合文章内容。
短文最后一段记述了Ellen当时的心情，清楚地表现了Ellen快乐的心情。因此，答案为C。第二篇 短文讲的是“一间房”学校对美国人的影响。 -

Going Her Own Way
When she was twelve,Maria made her first important decision about the course of her life.She decided
that she wanted to continue her education.Most girls from middle-class families chose to stay at home after
primary school,though some attended private Catholic"finishing"schools.There they learned a little about
music,art,needlework,and how to make polite conversation. This was not the sort of education that interested
Maria-or her mother. By this time,she had begun to take her studies more seriously.She read constantly
and brought her books everywhere.One time she even brought her math book to the theater and tried to study
in the dark.
Maria knew that she wanted to go on learning in a serious way.That meant attending the public high
school,something that very few girls did.In Italy at the time,there were two types of high schools:the
"classical"schools and the"technical"schools. In the classical schools,the students followed a very tradi-
tional program of studies,with courses in Latin and Greek language and literature,and Italian literature and
history. The few girls who continued studying after primary school usually chose these schools.
Maria,however,wanted to attend a technical school.The technical schools were more modern than the
classical schools and they offered courses in modern languages,mathematics,science,and accounting. Most
people一including Maria's father一believed that girls would never be able to understand these subjects.
Furthermore,they did not think it was proper for girls to study them.
Maria did not care if it was proper or not.Math and science were the subjects that interested her most.
But before she could sign up for the technical school,she had to win her father's approval. She finally did,
with her mother's help,though for many years after,there was tension in the family. Maria's father continued to
oppose her plans,while her mother helped her.
In 1883,at age thirteen,Maria entered the"Regia Scuola Tecnica Michelangelo Buonarroti"in Rome.
Her experience at this school is difficult for us to imagine.Though the courses included modern subjects,the
teaching methods were very traditional. Learning consisted of memorizing long lists of facts and repeating
them back to the teacher. Students were not supposed to ask questions or think for themselves in any way.
Teachers were very demanding;discipline in the classroom was strict;punishment was severe for those who
failed to achieve or were disobedient.In those days,most Italian girls__________.
A:went to classical schools
B:didn't go to high. school
C:went to"finishing"schools
D:went to technical schools答案：B解析：由文章第三段第一句话“Maria, however, wanted to attend a technical school.”可知答案为C。
由文章第一段第三句话“Most girls from middle-class families chose to stay at home afterprimary school...”可知答案为B
由文章第三段倒数第二句话“Most people including Maria' s father believed that girls would never be able to understand these subjects.”说明玛利亚的父亲对女人所持的是传统观念。
由文章最后一段最后一句话可知，在那时的意大利高中学校中，教师是非常严格的。

第13题：
The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage(孤儿院)knew little about her. The streets where they found her had been her home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They left her long ago. At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else-to be independent. At twenty-one，she left the orphanage and began work as a secretary. And then，in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary, something special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong competition and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody. Mary entered the competition because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something. Winning the competition gave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into television and then into business as a manager. When she was working as a manager, she had trouble with her reports. “My English just wasn't good enough.” she says. Luckily, she had a boyfriend (who later became her husband) to help her. Mary studied management at Hong Kong Polytechnic and graduated in 1980. She started her own business in 1985. But she did not stop developing herself. She then studied at the University of Hong Kong. Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on photography. She has held several exhibitions of her work in many places-China, New Zealand and Paris. She still found time, however, to work on TV, write for newspapers and bring up her family. The girl from the street has come a long way, but her journey is not finished yet.

Going Her Own Way
When she was twelve,Maria made her first important decision about the course of her life.She decided
that she wanted to continue her education.Most girls from middle-class families chose to stay at home after
primary school,though some attended private Catholic"finishing"schools.There they learned a little about
music,art,needlework,and how to make polite conversation. This was not the sort of education that interested
Maria-or her mother. By this time,she had begun to take her studies more seriously.She read constantly
and brought her books everywhere.One time she even brought her math book to the theater and tried to study
in the dark.
Maria knew that she wanted to go on learning in a serious way.That meant attending the public high

"classical"schools and the"technical"schools. In the classical schools,the students followed a very tradi-

history. The few girls who continued studying after primary school usually chose these schools.
Maria,however,wanted to attend a technical school.The technical schools were more modern than the

and brought her books everywhere.One time she even brought her math book to the theater and tried to study
in the dark.
Maria knew that she wanted to go on learning in a serious way.That meant attending the public high
school,something that very few girls did.In Italy at the time,there were two types of high schools:the
"classical"schools and the"technical"schools. In the classical schools,the students followed a very tradi-
tional program of studies,with courses in Latin and Greek language and literature,and Italian literature and
history. The few girls who continued studying after primary school usually chose these schools.
Maria,however,wanted to attend a technical school.The technical schools were more modern than the
classical schools and they offered courses in modern languages,mathematics,science,and accounting. Most
people一including Maria's father一believed that girls would never be able to understand these subjects.
Furthermore,they did not think it was proper for girls to study them.
Maria did not care if it was proper or not.Math and science were the subjects that interested her most.
But before she could sign up for the technical school,she had to win her father's approval. She finally did,
with her mother's help,though for many years after,there was tension in the family. Maria's father continued to
oppose her plans,while her mother helped her.
In 1883,at age thirteen,Maria entered the"Regia Scuola Tecnica Michelangelo Buonarroti"in Rome.
Her experience at this school is difficult for us to imagine.Though the courses included modern subjects,the
teaching methods were very traditional. Learning consisted of memorizing long lists of facts and repeating
them back to the teacher. Students were not supposed to ask questions or think for themselves in any way.
Teachers were very demanding;discipline in the classroom was strict;punishment was severe for those who
failed to achieve or were disobedient.We can infer from this passage that__________.
A:girls usually attended private primary schools
B:only girls attended classical schools
C:girls did not like going to school
D:Maria was a girl who had very strong will答案：D解析：由文章第三段第一句话“Maria, however, wanted to attend a technical school.”可知答案为C。
由文章第一段第三句话“Most girls from middle-class families chose to stay at home afterprimary school...”可知答案为B
由文章第三段倒数第二句话“Most people including Maria' s father believed that girls would never be able to understand these subjects.”说明玛利亚的父亲对女人所持的是传统观念。
由文章最后一段最后一句话可知，在那时的意大利高中学校中，教师是非常严格的。
文章内容表明，玛利亚意志非常坚定，她冲破传统的束缚，进了她向往的技校。 -

第24题：
问答题Practice 7 When Mary Lennox was sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle everybody said she was the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen. It was true, too. She had a little thin face and a little thin body, thin light hair and a sour expression. Her hair was yellow, and her face was yellow because she had been born in India and had always been ill in one way or another. Her father had held a position under the English Government and had always been busy and ill himself, and her mother had been a great beauty who cared only to go to parties and amuse herself with gay people. She had not wanted a little girl at all, and when Mary was born she handed her over to the care of an Ayah, who was made to understand that if she wished to please the Mem Sahib she must keep the child out of sight as much as possible. So when she was a sickly, fretful, ugly little baby she was kept out of the way, and when she became a sickly, fretful, toddling thing she was kept out of the way also. She never remembered seeing familiarly anything but the dark faces of her Ayah and the other native servants. And as they always obeyed her and gave her her own way in everything, because the Mem Sahib would be angry if she was disturbed by her crying, by the time she was six years old she was as tyrannical and selfish a little pig as ever lived. The young English governess who came to teach her to read and write disliked her so much that she gave up her place in three months, and when other governesses came to try to fill it they always went away in a shorter time than the first one. So if Mary had not chosen to really want to know how to read books she would never have learned her letters at all.正确答案：

当玛丽·劳诺克斯被送到米瑟斯威特庄园,和她舅舅一起生活的时候,每个人都说她是他们见过的长相最令人不舒服孩子。这也对,玛丽有着消瘦的脸蛋、单薄的身体、薄薄的头发和一副不高兴的表情。她的头发是黄色的,由于出生在印度并且总是因为这样或那样的原因而生病,她的脸蛋也显得那么蜡黄。玛丽的父亲在英国政府中有份工作,经常很忙也时不时地生病,她的母亲是个大美人,只关心各种聚会以及和一些男人们寻欢作乐。玛丽的母亲从来没有想过要一个小女孩,当玛丽出生后,她就把她交给奶妈来照顾,奶妈知道,如果她想让女主人高兴的话,她就必须尽可能地把这个孩子带离她的视线。所以,当玛丽还是个多病、爱哭、难看的小婴孩时,她就被带离大人们的视线。当玛丽长成为一个多病、爱哭、蹒跚学步的小孩时,她还是被带离大人们的视线。除了奶妈和其他印度仆人的黑脸,玛丽从没记得见过任何熟悉的东西。因为女主人会被她的哭声打扰到而生气,所以奶妈和仆人们非常顺从玛丽,让她为所欲为。当玛丽长到6岁时,她像一头小猪那样乖戾而自私。来教她阅读和书写的年轻英语家庭女教师非常不喜欢玛丽,三个月后就放弃了这份工作,而后来试图教她的家庭教师也总是干不到第一位那么长的时间就离开了。所以如果不是玛丽自己真的想要读书的话,恐怕她连自己的名字也不会写。解析： 暂无解析
