4.One day when I was 12,my mother gave me an order:I was to walk to the public library,and borrow at least one book for the summer.This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem-inability to read.
In the library,I found my way into the"Children's Room".I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random.The cover of a book caught my eye.It presented a picture of a beagle.I had recently had a beagle,the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child.He was my secret sharer,but one morning,he was gone,given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him.I never forgot my beagle.
There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical(相同的) to my dog.I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover.My eyes ran across the title,Amos,the Beagle with a Plan.Unknowingly,I had read the title.Without opening the book,I borrowed it from the library for the summer.
Under the shade of a bush,I started to read about Amos.I read very,very slowly with difficulty.Though pages were turned slowly,I got the main idea of the story about a dog who,like mine,had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home.That dog was my dog,and I was the little boy in the book.At the end of the story,my mind continued the final scene of reunion,on and on,until my own lost dog and I were,in my mind,running together.
My mother's call returned me to the real world.I suddenly realized something:I had read a book,and I had loved reading that book.Everyone knew I could not read.But I had read it.Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.
I never told my mother about my"miraculous"(奇跡般的) experience that summer,but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year.And years later,she was proud that her son had read thousands of books,was awarded a PhD in literature,and authored his own books,articles,poetry and fiction.The power of the words has held.
5.The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order toD.
A.make him learn more about weapons
B.encourage him to do more walking
C.let him spend a meaningful summer
D.help cure him of his reading problem
6.The book caught the author's eye becauseC.
A.he liked children's stories very much
B.it contained pretty pictures of animals
C.it reminded him of his own dog
D.he found its title easy to understand
7.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?B
A.The author has had happy summers ever since.
B.The author has become a successful writer.
C.The author's mother read the same book.
D.The author's mother rewarded him with books.
8.Which one could be the best title of the passage?B
A.My Passion for Reading
B.The Charm of a Book
C.Mum's Strict Order
D.Reunion with My Beagle.

7.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章最后兩句And years later,she was proud that her son had read thousands of books,was awarded a PhD in the literature,and authored his own books,articles,poetry and fiction.The power of the words has held.說明后來母親為我自豪,因為我獲得了文學博士,也寫了自己的書、詩歌和小說.我從一個不愿意讀書的人成為一個著名的作家.故選B.
8.B.標題概括題.本文敘述了自己從一個不愿意讀書的孩子被媽媽逼著到圖書館去借書,結(jié)果因為看到了一本書,這本書里介紹了與自己丟失的狗相似的狗,最終我成為了一個著名的作家.充分說明了書的魅力.故選B.

9.The U.S.Department of Labor statistics (統(tǒng)計) show that there is an oversupply of college-trained workers and that this oversupply is increasing.Already there have been more than enough teachers,engineers,physicists,aerospace experts,and other specialists.Yet colleges and graduate schools continue every year to turn out highly trained people to compete for jobs that aren't there.The result is that graduates cannot enter the professions for which they were trained and must take temporary jobs which do not require a college degree.
  On the other hand,there is a great need for skilled workers of all sorts:carpenters,electricians,mechanics,plumbers,TV repairmen.
  These people have more work than they can deal with,and their annual incomes are often higher than those of college graduates.The old gap that white-collar workers make a better living than blue-collar workers no longer holds true.The law of supply and demand now favors the skilled workmen.
  The reason for this situation is the traditional myth that college degree is a passport to a prosperous future.A large part of American society matches success in life equally with a college degree.Parents begin indoctrinating (灌輸) their children with this myth before they are out of grade school.High school teachers play their part by acting as if high school education were a preparation for college rather than for life.Under this pressure the kids fall in line.Whether they want to go to college or not doesn't matter.Everybody should go to college,so of course they must go.And every year college enrollments (入學) go up and up,and more and more graduates are overeducated for the kinds of jobs available to them.
One result of this emphasis on a college education is that many people go to college who do not belong there.Of the sixty percent of high school graduates who enter college,half of them do not graduate with their class.Many of them drop out within the first year.Some struggle on for two or three years and then give up.
1.It's implied but not stated in the passage thatB.
A.many other countries are facing the same problem
B.white-collar workers in the US used to make more money than blue-collar workers
C.fewer students will prefer to go to college in the future
D.the law of supply and demand has a strong effect on American higher education
2.Which of the following is NOT a reason why college enrollments go up every year?
D
A.Many people believe that the only way to success is a college education.
B.Many parents want their children to go to college.
C.High school teachers urge their students to go to college.
D.Every young man and woman wants to go to college.
3.By saying that"many people go to college who do not belong there",the author means thatA.
A.many people who are not fit for college education go to college
B.many people who do not have enough money go to college
C.many people who go to college drop out within the first year
D.many people who go to college have their hopes destroyed
4.We can infer from the passage that the author believes thatD.
A.every young man and woman should go to college
B.college education is a bad thing
C.people with a college education should receive higher pay
D.fewer people should go to college while more should be trained for skilled jobs.

16.People who are slightly overweight or mildly obese(肥胖的) have a lower risk of early death than normal weight individuals(個人;個體),according to a new analysis of nearly 100international studies.
The studies,most conducted within the past decade,included about three million adults from around the world.The result of these studies by researchers at the National Center for Health Statistics in Maryland,part of the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,shows that slightly overweight or obese people were six percent less likely to die from all causes compared to people of normal weight.But the researchers found that seriously obese individuals were still at a 30percent greater risk of death compared to healthy-weight individuals.
Study lead author Katherine Flegal says she was not surprised that overweight people would not have a higher death risk."Because we'd actually already read a lot of this literature and realized that death rates for overweight would be at least not higher than normal[weight,"she said."I guess l was a little bit surprised that it was definitely lower.And l was also surprised that the lower rates of obesity didn't seem to differ from normal weight."
But Flegal stresses the difference in death rates appear to be small between normal-weight people and overweight and mildly obese individuals.
The finding by Flegal and colleagues have raised new questions about the reliability(可靠性)of the so-called"body mass index"or BMI,a measurement of body fat as a ratio(比例,比率)of height to weight,that has become popular in recent years among public health experts to measure potential health risks.
But Heymsfield warns that individuals should not conclude that it's okay to put on extra kilograms,since being at a healthy weight lowers the risk for heart disease and diabetes.

25.Katherine Flegal feels surprised at the fact thatB.
A.obese people have higher death rates
B.slightly obese people have lower death rates
C.obese people tend to die early
D.death rates have nothing to do with body weight
26.What do we learn from the fifth paragraph?A
A.BMI may not be so reliable.
B.The study provides further evidence for BMI.
C.BMI tells nothing about potential health risks.
D.BMI has been much questioned recently.
27.What can we conclude from the passage'?B
A.It's OK to put on extra weight.
B.It doesn't matter if you are slightly obese.
C.Obese people are much healthier.
D.Body weight has nothing to do with death rates.
28.What topic does the passage mainly deal with?C
A.Technology.        B.Dieting.
C.Health.            D.Death.
