(A)
Many people go to school for an education. They learn language, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula. It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in math. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn’t get everything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind.
The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of experiments. Above all, they know how to use their brains.
41. Many people go to school for an education. But some others go to school for ________.
A. enjoying themselves B. learning subjects C. learning a skill D. making a living
42. A teacher’s job is mainly to train his students to master the ability of ______.
A. reading by themselves B. making a living
C. reading and thinking D. studying all the subjects
43. The reason for scientists’ success lies in the fact that _______.
A. they read books that were not taught at school B. they worked all their lives
C. they wasted not a single moment D. they knew how to use their brains

Clifford Stoll ran a computer system in Berkeley, California. As a system administrator, he kept a close eye on the records. One day, Stoll found something strange in the payment record. There was a 75 cents mistake. One of the thousands of users had used the system for 75 cents worth of time and not paid for it.
It might sound like very little money to worry about. But that 75 cents was the first clue Stoll had to a much bigger problem — that a hacker had broken into Stoll’s computer system. Who was it? Stoll spent the next year trying to find out. During that time the hacker used the system in Berkeley as a starting point to break into military (军事的) computer systems all over the United States.
Stoll had to keep track of the hacker’s activities on the computer without the hacker’s knowing someone was watching him. Stoll even made up huge files of false information so the hacker would have lots to read. When the hacker spent long time reading, the telephone company was able to trace the lines. After a year, the hacker was traced back to his computer — in Germany. He was later caught by the German police.
44. Clifford Stoll came from _____ and he was a _____.
A. Germany; student B. the USA; hacker
C. America; manager D. Germany; hacker
45. 75 cents _____.
A. is a large sum of money B. is a small sum of money

46. The 75 cents mistake _____
A. would cause serious health problems
B. would make Stoll a very rich man
C. was found out by a Berkeley student
D. was a sign that someone had broken into Stoll’s system
47. In order to keep track of the hacker, _____.

C. Stoll told the police everything he knew
D. Stoll spent lots of time and efforts

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills. With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs (READ).
The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache,” said Lisa Myron, manager of the children’s department.
Last November, the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “paw graphed” book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April, according to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.
48. What is mainly discussed in the text?
A. Children’s reading difficulties.
B. Advantages of raising dogs.
C. Service in public library.
D. A special reading program.
49. Specialists use dogs to listen to children reading because they think ______________.
A. dogs are young children’s best friends
B. children can play with dogs while reading
C. dogs can provide encouragement for shy children
D. children and dogs understand each other
50. By saying “The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea”, the writer means the library ____________.
A. uses dogs to attract children.
B. accepts the idea put forward by ITA.
C. has opened a children's department.
D. has decided to train some dogs.
51. A “paw graphed” book is most probably_____________.
A. a book used in Saturday classes
B. a book written by the children
C. a prize for the children
D. a gift from parents

V. Reading comprehension. (22%)
(A)
Many people go to school for an education. They learn language, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula. It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in math. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn’t get everything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind.
The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of experiments. Above all, they know how to use their brains.
41. Many people go to school for an education. But some others go to school for ________.
A. enjoying themselves B. learning subjects C. learning a skill D. making a living
42. A teacher’s job is mainly to train his students to master the ability of ______.
A. reading by themselves B. making a living

43. The reason for scientists’ success lies in the fact that _______.
A. they read books that were not taught at school B. they worked all their lives
C. they wasted not a single moment D. they knew how to use their brains

Clifford Stoll ran a computer system in Berkeley, California. As a system administrator, he kept a close eye on the records. One day, Stoll found something strange in the payment record. There was a 75 cents mistake. One of the thousands of users had used the system for 75 cents worth of time and not paid for it.
It might sound like very little money to worry about. But that 75 cents was the first clue Stoll had to a much bigger problem — that a hacker had broken into Stoll’s computer system. Who was it? Stoll spent the next year trying to find out. During that time the hacker used the system in Berkeley as a starting point to break into military (军事的) computer systems all over the United States.
Stoll had to keep track of the hacker’s activities on the computer without the hacker’s knowing someone was watching him. Stoll even made up huge files of false information so the hacker would have lots to read. When the hacker spent long time reading, the telephone company was able to trace the lines. After a year, the hacker was traced back to his computer — in Germany. He was later caught by the German police.

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills. With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs (READ).
The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache,” said Lisa Myron, manager of the children’s department.
Last November, the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “paw graphed” book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April, according to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.
48 What is mainly discussed in the text?
A. Children’s reading difficulties.
B. Advantages of raising dogs.
C. Service in public library.
D. A special reading program.
49. Specialists use dogs to listen to children reading because they think ______________.
A. dogs are young children’s best friends
B. children can play with dogs while reading
C. dogs can provide encouragement for shy children
D. children and dogs understand each other
50. By saying “The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea”, the writer means the library ____________.
A. uses dogs to attract children.
B. accepts the idea put forward by ITA.
C. has opened a children's department.
D. has decided to train some dogs.
51. A “paw graphed” book is most probably_____________.
A. a book used in Saturday classes
B. a book written by the children
C. a prize for the children
D. a gift from parents
【答案】48. D 49. C 50. B 51. C
【解析】

【48题详解】

【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City.(据盐湖城山间治疗动物组织(Intermountain Therapy Animals,简称ITA)称,狗狗闪闪发光的棕色眼睛、摇摆的尾巴和无条件的爱可以为初学阅读者提供所需的非评判性听众,从而帮助他们建立信心。)”可知,专家使用狗来听孩子们阅读是因为他们认为狗可以为害羞的孩子提供鼓励,让他们在阅读时更加自信。故选C。
【50题详解】
