III 阅读 (共两节，满分40分)第一节 阅读理解 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own. My mom was one of those people.My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life, “Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it.”At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to badly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school walking on my own!When the Great Depression (大萧条) hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support the both of us. At that moment, I was determined never to be poor again.Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra $2 for each child. That was too expensive for the average American family. I told my wife that I was going to open a motel (汽车旅馆) for families that would never charge extra for children. There were plenty of doubters at that time.Not surprisingly, mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of challenges. But with my mothers words deeply rooted in my soul, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $ 1 billion a year.You may not have started out life in the best situations. But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.41. What Kemmons mom often told him during his childhood was _.A. caring B. moving C. encouraging D. interesting42. According to the author, who played the most important role in making him walk back to school again?A. Doctors. B. Nurses. C. His friends. D. His mom。43. What caused Kemmons to start a motel by himself?A. His terrible experience in the hotel.B. His previous business success of various level.C. His moms strongest support.D. His wifes valuable suggestion.44. Which of the following best describes Kemmons mother?A. Modest, helpful and hard-working. B. Loving, supportive and strong-willed.C. Careful, helpful and beautiful. D. Strict, sensitive and supportive.45. Which of the following led to Kemmons success according to the passage?A. Self-confidence, hard work, higher education and a poor family.B. Clear goals, moms encouragement, a poor family and higher education.C. Moms encouragement, clear goals, self-confidence and hard work.D. Moms encouragement, a poor family, higher education and opportunities. BMy son and a bunch of his 13-year-old friends piled into the back seat of my car, ready for the last-day-of-school party at McDonalds on report card day last year. “Jack got a laptop for getting straight As, and Laurie got a cell phone,” one boy said. “Oh, yeah, and Sarah got an iPod Nano, and shes only in third grade,” said another. “And how about Brian? He got $ 10 for each A.”I suddenly became concerned. These payoffs might get parents through grammar school, but what about high school and beyond? What would be left after the electric guitar, the cell phone, and the portable DVD player?I saw the road ahead: As the homework load increased, my income would decrease. I saw my comfortable lifestyle disappear before my eyes no more of those $5 bags of already-peeled organic carrots. No more organic anything!I started to feel surprised and nervous. Would every goal attained by my two children fetch a reward? A high grade point average? A good class ranking? Would sports achievements be included in this reward system: soccer goals, touchdowns, runs-batted-in? What about orchestra? Would first chair pay more than second? Id be penniless by eighth-grade graduation.“We never paid anything for good grades,” said my neighbor across the street, whose son was recently accepted at MIT. “He just did it on his own. Maybe once in a while we went out for pizza, but thats about it.”Dont you just hate that? Were all running around looking for the MP3 player with the most updates, and shes spending a few dollars on pizza. She gets motivation; we get negotiation.46Why did the writer suddenly become concerned?ABecause many kids were getting very good grade at school.BBecause he was worried about the current reword system.CBecause he wasnt making enough money to buy things for his kids good grades.DBecause kids were having too many parties after school.47The underlined sentence “As the homework load increased, my income would decrease.” (in Paragraph 3) probably means that _.Ataking care of the children would influence my workBI would spend more money on my childrens homeworkCreducing childrens homework load would cost me a lotDmore rewards would be needed as the children grew up48The example of the authors neighbor shows that _.Apizza is the best way to encourage childrenBthe authors neighbor was very poorCreward is not the only way to encourage childrenDthe son of the authors neighbors didnt like reward49It can be inferred from the passage that _.Achildren would think that you should if you pay them for good grades Bchildren would work harder if you buy them pizza for good grades Cchildren would not ask for rewards when they enter high schoolDchildren would not ask for rewards when they enter university50What is the authors attitude toward paying children reward for good grades?AHelpful. BUncertain.CUnpleasant. DUnknowable. CFolklore is the branch of the study of man which deals with local customs, tales and traditions. Everybody is a storehouse of folklore, though not everybody realizes it. Often, in deed, those who have never heard the word folklore have the greatest store of it, for the people with least book education commonly cherish most firmly old ideas and superstitions (迷信) which have been passed on by word of mouth for generations. Everyone has heard stories of ghosts, witches, fairies, and giants. We all know some proverbs and have come across such ideas as, for example, that it is lucky to see black cat and unlucky to see a single magpie (喜鹊). We keep certain seasons of the year as festivals, such as Christmas, and we are familiar with the special customs connected with weddings and funerals. All such things are of interest to those who study folklore.People who study folklore wont criticize the old beliefs and practices they come across as silly, childish, or old-fashioned. Instead, they will try to collect accurate records of them and then see how these are connected with other ideas and customs of other places or times. By comparing with what is known of olden times or the folklore of other countries, they try to discover how certain beliefs and practices came into being, and what purpose they serve now or used to serve in the past.Often we find that the beliefs which seem most peculiar and unreasonable, and the customs which appear least practical, are of the greatest interest and importance because they are commonly the oldest. Sometimes they were part of an ancient ritual (惯例) or served a useful purpose when peoples way of life was different from what it is now. So we not only learn about what people thought and did in the past but are better able to understand present customs. People often keep up customs when they have forgotten the original reason for them, and in the course of time a fresh reason gets attached to the custom. Thus, when some joker ties an old shoe to the back of the taxi taking the bride and bridegroom to the station for their honeymoon, he would say it was “for luck”, but actually a shoe is an old fertility (繁殖力) symbol and has a place in the wedding customs of China and Palestine.51. According to the text, people usually pass on old ideas and superstitions by _. A. putting them in a large storehouse B. writing them down in books C. celebrating them as festivals D. mouth from one generation to another52. The underlined word “they” (in Para.2) most probably refers to _. A. practices and beliefs B. customs and traditions C. records and tales D. places or times53. It is most unlikely for people who study folklore to _. A. collect as many records of old beliefs and practices as possible B. compare the present customs with those of the olden times C. criticize the old beliefs and superstitions as silly or childish D. find out the purpose the certain beliefs and practices serve or used to serve54. Which of the following statements is true about customs? A. The customs which do not appear practical mean nothing to most people. B. The reasons for certain customs may change in the course of history. C. People who practice customs are quite familiar with their origins. D. The wedding customs in China and Palestine are of great similarity.55. What would be the best title for the passage? A. What Does Folklore Really Mean? B. How Do People Keep Up Customs? C. Who Studies Tales And Traditions? D. When Did Some Old Beliefs Begin?第二节 信息匹配 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 下面是一些电影的相关信息，请阅读下文，并按照要求匹配信息。首先，请阅读下列的应用文： A.
