The people who laughed as they walked   36  were taking their health   37  granted, just as he  38  himself. Now,   39__, he felt helpless—and he couldn’t even show his disappointment in his  40  . Seeking more personally satisfying  41  , he had just left a successful job as a commercial artist when it seemed that fate（命运）played a cruel trick on him. It was at this time   42  he developed cancer and was  43  to work. But that moment in the hotel was a turning point for Johnson. He began to  44  the fact that there is no such a thing as fate, only  45  . Since then, he has published several imaginative, illustrated（带插图的）books. According to Johnson, you are  46  you choose to be. You can give up or you can work to be a happier person. Johnson realized that, while the world  47  seems unfair, your choice can change your life. This idea can be   48  in Johnson’s books, where his characters show the powerlessness they feel   49  making their choices. The message that goes with Johnson’s drawings, however, is 50 .Though the world may make us feel small, we must be  51  . Everything will be all right for us—as it is for the “small people” in Johnson’s books—if we make choices that are   52  for us. In spite of his new  53  and wealth, Johnson prefers working  54  at home with his wife and daughter. He spends his mornings drawing. To Johnson, living a life as he chooses means much more than money and fame could  55  . 36．A．on    B．past    C．up    D．away 37．A．up    B．as    C．with    D．for 38．A．ought to    B．had to    C．needed to    D．used to 39．A．however    B．therefore      C．so    D．but 40．A．crying        B．painting    C. imagination    D．consideration 41．A．home    B．condition    C．situation    D．work 42．A．where    B．which    C．that    D．when 43．A．unable    B．impossible    C．unfit    D．difficult 44．A．understand    B．face    C．refuse    D．recognize 45．A．failures    B．efforts    C．choices    D．interests 46．A．that    B．what    C．which    D．whoever 47．A．always    B．seldom    C．sometimes    D．usually 48．A．found    B．drawn    C．written    D．accepted 49．A．after    B．about    C．with    D．before 50．A．powerful    B．hopeful    C．useful    D．successful 51．A．great    B．strong    C．brave    D．equal 52．A．scientific    B．basic    C．right    D．simple 53．A．product    B．fame    C．name    D．job 54．A．rapidly    B．separately    C．slowly    D．quietly 55．A．offer    B．gain    C．gather    D．earn 第三部分 阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Nowadays, we hear a lot about the growing threat of globalization, accompanied by those warnings that the rich pattern of local life is being undermined（破坏）, and many dialects and traditions are becoming extinct. But stop and think for a moment about the many positive aspects that globalization is bringing. Read on and you are sure to feel comforted, ready to face the global future. Consider the Internet, that good example of our shrinking world. Leaving aside the worries about political extremism, even the most narrow-minded must admit that the net offers a lot of benefits, not just in terms of education, the sector（部分）for which it was originally designed, but more importantly on a global level, the spread of news and comment. It will be increasingly difficult for politicians to misinform the public, as the oppressed（被压迫的）will not only find support and comfort, but also be able to organize themselves more effectively. MTV is another global provider that is often criticized for imposing（强加）popular culture on the unsuspecting millions around the world. Yet the viewers’ judgment on MTV is undoubtedly positive; it is regarded as necessary by most of the global teenage generation who watch it, a vital part of growing up. And in the final analysis, what harm can a few songs and videos cause? Is the world dominance（绝对优势）of brands like Nike and Coca-Cola so bad for us, when all is said and done? Sportswear and soft drinks are harmless products when compared to the many other things that have been globally available for a longer period of time----heroin and cocaine, for example. In any case, just because Nike shoes and Coke cans are for sale, it doesn’t mean you have to buy them----even globalization cannot take away people’s free will. Critics of globalization can stop presenting their doom and gloom statements. Life goes on, and has more to offer for many citizens of the world than it did for their parents’ generation. 56．Some people feel sad about globalization because they believe it will ____________. A．affect the rich local life B．bring threat to the world peace  C．change their present easy lifestyle  D．increase the size of people speaking dialects 57．Internet was originally designed ______________.  A．to spread news and comment B．to get support and comfort  C．to organize the oppressed more effectively D．to promote education 58. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. The Internet makes people worried about political extremism. B. Nike and Coca-cola shouldn’t have caused so much worry. C. All of the global teenage generation think that MTV is a necessary and important part for their growing up. D. Sportswear and soft drinks cannot be compared with drug. 59．Which of the following could be the best title of the passage? A．Globalization is Standardization（标准化） B．Globalization: Don’t Worry, Be Happy C．Globalization: Like it or change it D．Globalization Brings Equality B Because plants cannot move or talk, it is believed that they have no feelings and that they cannot receive signals from outside. However, this may not be completely true. People who studied plants have found out that plants carry a small electrical charge (电荷). It is possible to measure this charge with a small piece of equipment called “galvanometer”. The galvanometer is placed on a leaf off the plant, and it records any changes in the electrical field of the leaf. Humans have a similar field which can change when we are shocked or frightened. A man called Backster used a galvanometer for his studies of plants and was very surprised at his results. He found that if he had two or more plants in a room and he began to destroy one of them － perhaps by pulling off its leaves or by pulling it out of its pot － then the galvanometer on the leaves of the other plants showed a change in the electrical field. It seemed as if the plants were signalling a feeling of shock. This happened not only when Backster started to destroy plants, but also when he destroyed other living things such as insects (昆虫). Backster said that the plants also knew if someone had destroyed a living thing some distance away, because they signalled when a man who had just cut down a tree entered the room. Another scientist, named Sauvin, achieved similar results to Backster’s. He kept galvanometers fixed to his plants all the time and checked regularly to see what the plants were doing. If he was out of the office, he telephoned to find out about the signals the plants were sending. In this way, he found that the plants were sending out signals at the exact times when he felt strong pleasure or pain. In fact, Sauvin could cause a change in the electrical field of his plants over a distance of a few miles simply by thinking about them. 60. Why was Backster surprised at the results of his studies? A. Because he found someone had just cut down a tree. B. Because he destroyed a plant by pulling it out of its pot. C. Because he found that plants could move and speak after all. D. Because he found that plants could express feelings of shock. 61. The plants sent out signals _____. A. only when Backster Started to destroy plants B. when Backster destroyed plants or other living things C. only when he destroyed things such as insects D. only when Backster placed the galvanometer on the leaves of the plants 62. The scientist called Sauvin _____. A. did not agree with Backster’s ideas B. did not get the same sort of results as Backster did C. found out some of the same things that Backster did D. got different results from Backster’s 63. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. The electrical charge plants carry may shock or frighten us. B. A tree will signal when it has been cut down. C. Sauvin could make his plants send out signals some distance away. D. Plants have feelings because they can receive signals without moving. C A new study suggests that the round-the-clock(24小时不断的)availability that cell phone have brought to people’s lives may be taking a toll on family life．The study，which followed more than 1，300 adults over 2 years, found that those who consistently used a mobile phone throughout the study period were more likely to report negative “spillover’’ between work and home life—and，in turn, less satisfaction with their family life. Spillover essentially(本质上)means that the line between work and home begins to become unclear．Work life may invade home life when a parent is taking job—related calIs at home，for instance--or family issues may start to take up work time．For example，a child may call mom at work，telling her "microwave exploded” explained Noelle Chesley，an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Wisconsin—Milwaukee and the author of the study. The problem with cell phones seems to be that they are allowing for ever more spillover between work and home．    This may be especially true for working women，the study found. Among men，consistent use of mobile phones seemed to allow more work issues to creep (潜入)into family time．But for women，the spillover tended to go in both directions. Being “connected” meant that work cut into home time，and family issues came into work life．  Cell phones seem to be opening more lines for stressful exchanges among family member．But there may be ways to control the spillover，according to Chesley．Employers, she said，could look at their policies on contacting employees after hours to make sure their expectations are “reasonable”．For their part，employees could decide that cell phones go off during family time, Chesley said.  64．What does the underlined phrase “taking a toll on’’ probably mean in Paragraph 1? A. Explaining.   B. Influencing.    C. Damaging.  D. Extending       65．According to Chesley，what is the best solution to the problem caused by cell phones? A. Refuse to use cell phones． B. Separate work hours from family time． C. Ignore coming calls during family time． D. Encourage women to stay at home． 66．We can learn from the passage that ___________________. A．spillover makes the line between work and home unclear B．cell phones seem to be convenient to families C．cell phones affect men as much as women D．we can do nothing to solve the problem 67. What is the main idea of the passage? A .How to control the negative spillover caused by cell phones. B. Cell phones cause negative “spillover’’ between work and home life. C. Consistent use of cell phones makes people feel less satisfied with their work.
