23、ss第三部分:閱讀理解（共20小題;每小題2分, 滿分40分） 閱讀下列短文，從每篇短文后所給各題的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。 A The small coastal town of Broome, in northwest Australia, is a remote village in the vast countryside.There are no traffic jams and hardly any roads. There is only the massive Australian wild land, where some hous

24、es are 500 miles apart and some driveways are 50 miles long.There seem to be only two main sources of entertainment out here: the sunset at the beach and Sun Pictures.Sun Pictures is a very different movie theater：The seats are park benches and deck chairs, but youre also welcome to sit on the grass

25、.It is the worlds oldest outdoor movie garden. Sun Pictures was built in 1916 on the other side of the globe from Hollywood. All the big films were shipped here and the lonely country was amazed.Broome resident Pearl Hamaguchi has never traveled far from home. But in the Sun Pictures chairs, under t

26、he deep blue night sky, she has been almost everywhere.“And we came back excited about Gregory Peck,” she recalled.This is one of the few places left in the world where you can see two sets of stars at the same time-one set in the sky, the other in the film.Each night, dozens of people from around t

27、he world line up at the old wooden stand, with no computer in sight, and buy their tickets to the latest films.Sun Pictures is also a museum, exhibiting projectors(放映機) that date back to the silent films, a portrait gallery of the famous people who never knew about this place- even though they came

28、here all the time.Every once in a while, Im told, you might find a non-ticket holder in your seat. Thats why its always a good idea to shake out your chair to make sure there are no spiders or scorpions.“Weve only had a couple of scorpion incidents but no ones been stung yet,” said Aaron Mestemaker,

29、 a tourist visiting from Michigan.Sun Pictures is a holy hall of movie history and a reminder that air conditioning and carpet are no match for grass and fresh air-even when the lizards steal the scene.51. The first two paragraphs want to show that_.A. living in Broome is inconvenientB. the life in

30、Broome is boringC. few people like to live in BroomeD. Broome is simple but vast52. Sun Pictures is different from other theaters because _.A. it is the most historical outdoor theater in the worldB. the audience can either sit on chairs or on the grassC. it was built by some constructor from Hollyw

31、oodD. all the films were imported here from Hollywood53. Gregory Peck is most probably the name of_.A. a placeB. a filmC. a movie starD. a country fellow54. It can be inferred that the tourists in Broome are most attracted by _.A. its peacefulnessB. its beautiful sunsetC. the Sun PicturesD. the gall

32、ery of movie starsB In only two decades Asian Americans have become the fastest-growing US minority. As their children began moving up through the nations schools, it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was forming. Their achievements are reflected in the nations best universities, w

33、here mathematics, science and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their educations abroad arrived in the US with a solid grounding in mathematics but

34、little or no knowledge of English.They are also influenced by the promises of a good job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively. And the return on the investment in education is more immediate

35、in something like engineering than with an arts degree.Most Asian-American students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention is homework. A

36、sian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that causes success, such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education.Both explanations for academic success worry Asian American

37、s because of fears that they feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the victims of social separation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship.55. While making great achieve

38、ments at college, Asian-American students _.A. feel they are mistreated because of limited knowledge of EnglishB. are afraid that their academic successes bear a strong Asian characterC. still worry about unfair treatment in academic areasD. generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their paren

39、ts56. What are the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans?A. Solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian culture.B. Hard work and intelligence.C. Hard work and a limited knowledge of English.D. Asian culture and the American educational system.57. Few Asian-American students

40、 major in human sciences mainly because_.A. their English is not good enoughB. they are afraid they might meet with unfair judgment in these areasC. there is a wide difference between Asian and Western culturesD. they know little about American culture and society58. The authors tone in this passage

41、 is _.A. sympatheticB. doubtfulC. criticalD. objectiveC There seems never to have been a civilization without toys, but when and how they developed is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do.In the ancient world, as is today, most boys played with some kinds of toys a

42、nd most girls with another. In societies where social roles are strictly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers.This is true because boys and girls are being prepared, even in play, to step into the roles and responsibilit

43、ies of the adult world.What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained the same. The changes have been mostly in terms of skill, mechanics, and technology. It is the universality of toys with regard to their development

44、in all parts of the world and their insistence to the present that is amazing. In Egypt, the US, China,Japan and among the Arctic peoples, generally the same kinds of toys appeared. Variations depended on local customs and ways of life because toys reflect their surroundings.Nearly every civilizatio

45、n had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles.Because toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been affected by technological quick development that characterize inventions for adult use. The progress from the wheel to the ox-cart to the automobile i

46、s a direct line of ahievement. The progress from a rattle(撥浪鼓) used by a baby in 3000 BC to one used by a baby today, however, is not characterized by inventiveness. Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of times and subject to the limtations of available materials.59. The reason why the

47、 toys most boys play with are different from those that girls play with is that_.A. their social roles are strictly determinedB. most boys would like to follow their fathers professionsC. boys like to play with their fathers while girls with their mothersD. they like challenging activities60. Which

48、of the following is the authors view on the historical development of toys？A. The making skills in toys has remained essentially unchanged.B. Toys have remained basically the same all through the centuries.C. The toy industry has witnessed great improvement in technology in recent years.D. Toys are

49、playing an increasingly important role in shaping a childs character.61. Regarded as a kind of art form, toys_.A. follow a direct line of achievementB. also appeal greatly to adultsC. are not characterized by technological progressD. reflect the pace of social progress62. The author uses the example

50、 of a rattle to show that_.A. in toy-making there is a continuity in the use of materialsB. even the simplest toys can reflect the progress of technologyC. it often takes a long time to introduce new technology into toy-makingD. even a simple toy can mirror the artistic tastes of the timeDI was work

51、ing with a client who was completely burned out on her career and life and then ready for a career change. As we were talking, she said, “I just wish I had meaningful work. I dont feel like I am making a difference. I am just wasting my life.” This is the theme I hear most often from clients who hav

52、e been in the workforce a while. All of us want to feel like we are making a difference. We want to believe our work means something. The problem comes in defining “meaningful work”. What is it? That answer is different for everyone. For some meaningful work might be helping others organize their of

53、fice. For others it may mean making a million dollars.What really matters is how you see it. What is meaningful work to you? Take out a piece of paper and answer these questions. How do you define meaningful work? When do you feel like you are really making a difference? What work have you done so f

54、ar that feels the most meaningful? Write down whatever comes to mind.What you want to do is meaningful. It is very easy to start judging yourself as being selfish. Stop! Allow yourself to be honest. The fact is when Picasso painted; he was doing it because he liked to paint. He was not thinking, “Oh

55、, I hope this brings joy to others lives.” He painted because he wanted to. When Beethoven composed, he did it because he loved music. Even scientists searching for a cure for cancer are immersed in their work because it fascinates them.Dont look down on your work. It is easy to downplay the importa

56、nce of work that feels meaningful. I remember Tony Robbins told a story of talking with the owner of a major company. The man said to Tony, “I wish I could do what you do because it makes such a difference in peoples lives”. Tony said, “You have got to be kidding! Look at what a difference you make. You provide work
