第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
We observe today not a victory of party but a celebration of
freedom, symbolizing an end as well as a beginning, signifying
renewal as well as change for I have sworn before you and Almighty
God the same solemn oath our forbears (ancestors) prescribed nearly
a century and three-quarters ago.
The world is very different now, for man holds in his mortal
hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms
of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our
forbears fought are still at issue around the globe, the belief
that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state
but from the hand of God. We dare not forget today that we are the
heirs（继承人）of that first revolution.
Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and
foe (enemy) alike, that the torch has been passed to a new
generation of Americans born in this century, tempered by war,
disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient
heritage and unwilling to disciplined by a hard and bitter peace,
proud of our ancient heritage and unwilling to disciplined by a
hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage and unwilling
to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to
which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are
committed today at home and around the world.
Let every nation know whether it wishes us well or ill that we
shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support
any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success
of liberty. This much we pledge (promise solemny) and more.
In the long history of the world, only a few generations have
been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum
danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility. I welcome it. I
do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other
people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion
which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who
serve it and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.
And so, my fellow Americans ask not what your country can do for
ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of
the world ask not what America will do for you, but what together
we can do for the Freedom of Man.
Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the
world, ask of us here the same high standards of strength and
sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure
reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth
to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but
knowing that here on earth God’s work must truly be our own.
56. What should friends and foes know?
A. That the United States is powerful.
B. That a new generation of Americans are responsible for their
government.
C. That the United States is governed by liberals.
D. The rights of man come from the hand of God.
57. What is Kennedy’s promise to the world?
A. To support liberty.
B. To abolish all forms of human poverty.
C. To visit each country at least once.
D. To support and friend.
58. What should citizens of the world ask of America?
A. How America can help them.
B. If America plans to invade their country.
C. What they can do for freedom.
D. What they can do for America.
59. Which of the following statement is NOT true according to
the passage?
A. Human beings have the power to put an end to all forms of
B. We should remember we are the first revolution.
C. Our nation has always been committed to human rights.
D. We should assure the survival and the success of liberty.
Aggressive pedestrians are in fact as dangerous as careless
drivers. They cause traffic accidents, injury and death.
These dangerous walkers can be seen in any big city all over the
world. About 69% of last year’s pedestrian deaths in the US
occurred in urban areas. They cross streets ignoring “DON’T WALK”
signals, suddenly appear without warning from behind parked
vehicles, walk slowly at crossroads with cell phones attached to
heads, blocking traffic.
These pedestrians and drivers share a common disregard for the
rules of the road, both for selfish reasons. The drivers believe in
the power of their machines. If their machines can go faster, they
believe they have the right to go faster. If their machines are
bigger, they believe they have the right to push smaller vehicles
aside. Aggressive pedestrians, on the other hand, believe in the
primacy(首位) of the individual, the idea that they are first in any
environment, under any circumstances, even when they are on foot in
a roaring tide of steel and rubber.
Last year, an estimated 5,220 pedestrians died in traffic
accidents. Some 69,000 pedestrians were injured. On average, that
worked out to one pedestrian killed in a traffic crash every 101
minutes, and one injured every eight minutes.
The good news is that the accident rate is dropping. For
example, the number of pedestrians killed last year was 24 percent
less than the number killed in traffic accidents a decade earlier.
The bad news is that the basic causes of pedestrian deaths remain
pretty much the same----disregard for traffic signals, inattention
and crossing roads under the influence of alcohol and drugs.
Alcohol, in fact, was involved in 46 percent of the traffic
accidents that resulted in pedestrian deaths. Of those, 31 percent
of the pedestrians were found to be drunk.
The bottom line is that the pedestrians must do more to protect
their lives as well as the lives of other road users. They can
start by , using marked
cross-walks and calling a cab when they’ve had too much to
60. The passage is mainly about _____.
A. how aggressive pedestrians cause traffic accidents
B. why so many Americans were killed on roads last year
C. what the traffic rules of the road about pedestrians were
D. who are to blame for pedestrian deaths, drunk drivers or the
aggressive pedestrians
61. What is the pedestrians’ selfish reason for traffic
A. They know all drivers are skilled and with great care.
B. They believe individuals are always first.
C. They think traffic rules have nothing to do with them.
D. They guess all vehicles will slow down at crossroads.
62. What was NOT the basic cause of pedestrian deaths in the US
a decade ago?
A. Disregard for traffic
signals&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
B. Paying no attention to surroundings.
C. Crossing roads
drunk.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
D. Overspeeding driving.
63. What word can best describe the author’s attitude to the
traffic accidents caused by pedestrians?
Excited.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Cold.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Concerned&&&&&&&&&&&
D. Unconnected.
Rae and Bruce Hostetler not only work very hard，they also relax
just as well. Numerous vacations help the couple to maintain their
health and emotional well-being一and it’s no surprise to health care
professionals.
“Rest, relaxation, and stress reduction are very important for
people’s well-being and health. This can be accomplished through
daily activities, such as exercise and meditation, but vacation is
an important part of this as well,” said primary care physician
Natasha Withers from One Medical Group in New York. Withers lists a
decreased risk of heart disease and improved reaction time as some
of the benefits from taking some time off. “We also know that the
mind is very powerful and can help with healing, so a rested,
relaxed mind is able to help the body heal better,” said
Psychologists confirm the value of vacations for the mind. “The
impact that taking a vacation has on one’s mental health is great,”
said Francine Lederer, a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles who
specializes in stress and relationship management. “Most people
have better life perspective and are more motivated to achieve
their goals after a vacation, even if it is a 24- hour time-out.”
The trips could be good for their health, good for their family and
good for their businesses.
The online travel agency Expedia conducted a survey about
vacation time in 2010, and according to their data the average
American earned 18 vacation days一but only used 14 of them. France
topped the list, with the average worker earning 37 vacation days
and using all but two of them. Americans, responses may not be
surprising in a culture where long hours on the job often are
valued, but that’s not always good for the individual, the family
or the employer.
Psychologists have also found that people who don’t take enough
time to relax may find it harder to relax in the future. “Without
time and opportunity to do this, the nerve connections that produce
feelings of calm and peacefulness become weaker, making it actually
more difficult to shift into less-stressed states,” Mulhem

A. By making
comparisons.&&&&

B. By giving an example.
C. By raising questions.&&

D. By providing data.
65. Expedia’s survey shows that Americans _____.
A. dislike family
gatherings&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
B. have the shortest vacation
C. enjoy as many vacations as the
French&&&&&&
D. think much of spending long hours on the job
66. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. One should never wait to
relax.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
B. Work and rest go against each other.
C. Time and opportunity wait for no
man.&&&&&&
D. A relaxed mind determines everything.

More UK universities should be profiting from ideas
　　A repeated criticism of the UK's university sector is its
noticeable weakness in translating new knowledge into new products
and services.
　　Recently, the UK National Stem Cell Network warned the UK
could lose its place among the world leaders in stem cell research
unless adequate funding and legislation could be assured, despite
an annual &40m spent by the Department of Health on all kinds of
　　However, we do have to challenge the unthinking complaint that
the sector does not do enough in taking ideas to market. The most
recent comparative data on the performance of universities and
research institutions in Australia, Canada, USA and UK shows that,
from a relatively weak starting position, the UK now leads on many
indicators of commercialization activity.
　　When viewed at the national level, the policy
interventions (interference) of the past decade have helped
transformed the performances of UK universities. Evidence suggests
the UK's position is much stronger than in the recent past and is
still showing improvement. But national data masks the very large
variation in the performance of individual universities. The
evidence shows that a large number of universities have fallen off
the back of the pack, a few perform strongly and the rest chase the
　　This type of uneven distribution is not strange to the UK and
is mirrored across other economies. In the UK, research is
concentrated: less than 25% of universities are receiving 75% of
the research funding. These same universities are also the
institutions producing the greatest share of PhD graduates, science
citations, patents and license income. The effect of policies
generating long-term resource concentration has also created a
distinctive set of universities which are research-led and
commercially active. It seems clear that the concentration of
research and commercialization work creates differences between
universities.
　　The core objective for universities which are research-led
must be to maximize the impact of their research efforts. Their
purpose is not to generate funds to add to the bottom line of the
university or to substitute other income streams. Rather, these
universities should be generating the widest range of social,
economic and environmental benefits. In return for the scale of
investment, they should share their expertise (expert knowledge or
skill) in order to build greater confidence in the sector.
　　Part of the economic recovery of the UK will be driven by the
next generation of research commercialization spilling out of our
universities. On the evidence presented in my report, there are
three dozen universities in the UK which are actively engaged in
advanced research training and commercialization work.
　　If there was a greater coordination（协调）of technology transfer
offices within regions and a simultaneous (happening at the same
time) investment in the scale and functions of our graduate
schools, universities could, and should, play a key role in
positioning the UK for the next growth cycle.
67. What does the author think of UK universities in terms of
commercialization?
A. They have lost their leading position in many ways.
B. They still have a place among the world
leaders.& &&
C. They do not regard it as their
responsibility.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
D. They fail to change knowledge into money.
68. What does the author say about the national data on UK
universities’ performance in commercialization?
A. It masks the fatal weaknesses of government policy.
B. It indicates their ineffective use of government
resources.
C. It does not rank UK universities in a scientific way.
D. It does not reflect the differences among universities.
69. We can infer from Paragraph 5 that “policy interventions (in
Paragraph 4)” refers to _____.
A. concentration of resources in a limited number of
universities
B. compulsory cooperation between universities and
industries
C. government aid to non-research-oriented universities
D. fair distribution of funding for universities and research
institutions
70. What dose the author suggest research-led universities
A. Fully use their research to benefit all sectors of
B. Generously share their facilities with those short of
C. Advertise their research to win international
recognition.
D. Spread their influence among top research institutions.

When I opened my e-mail the other day, a pretty woman named
Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and
started talking enthusiastically. Every now and then she stopped to
smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an e-mail from my
brother, and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to
give him a high=speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail.
Facemail lets you send an e-mail that gets read to the receiver by
an attractive male or female form or by a clown. The software,
which is free, can be downloaded at www. .
Facemail faces are lifelike, and they copy emotions based on the
ones that you put in your text. For example, type in X, and Rachel
blows a kiss.
Life FX, the company that develops the Facemail is sure there
are broad business uses. The reason e-business is not popular, the
company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human
touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan
greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale?
And the company is talking with Whirlpool about using the
technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom can’t be
home when the kids get back from school, she can leave a note with
voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast. Personally, I’m a fan. But Facemail
should be used with words in an e-mail and add angry emotions when
you’ve got a psycho-mail.

It reminds me of the problems in our study. While studying, we
always try to read more books and do more exercises. However, we
seldom pay attention to the mistakes we’ve made, nor do we try to
correct them. Therefore, “holes” are left. Day by day, there appear
more and more “holes”, or rather the shortages. No matter how many
books we’ve read, we have never mastered any knowledge because they
have leaked out through the hole.
So we should pay attention to the mistakes we’ve made and the
holes we have in our study. Only in this way can we learn much
knowledge and fill up our mind with it.

第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
We observe today not a victory of party but a celebration of
freedom, symbolizing an end as well as a beginning, signifying
renewal as well as change for I have sworn before you and Almighty
God the same solemn oath our forbears (ancestors) prescribed nearly
a century and three-quarters ago.
The world is very different now, for man holds in his mortal
hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms
of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our
forbears fought are still at issue around the globe, the belief
that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state
but from the hand of God. We dare not forget today that we are the
heirs（继承人）of that first revolution.
Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and
foe (enemy) alike, that the torch has been passed to a new
generation of Americans born in this century, tempered by war,
disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient
heritage and unwilling to disciplined by a hard and bitter peace,
proud of our ancient heritage and unwilling to disciplined by a
hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage and unwilling
to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to
which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are
committed today at home and around the world.
Let every nation know whether it wishes us well or ill that we
shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support
any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success
of liberty. This much we pledge (promise solemny) and more.
In the long history of the world, only a few generations have
been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum
danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility. I welcome it. I
do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other
people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion
which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who
serve it and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.
And so, my fellow Americans ask not what your country can do for
ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of
the world ask not what America will do for you, but what together
we can do for the Freedom of Man.
Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the
world, ask of us here the same high standards of strength and
sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure
reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth
to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but
knowing that here on earth God’s work must truly be our own.
56. What should friends and foes know?
A. That the United States is powerful.
B. That a new generation of Americans are responsible for their
government.
C. That the United States is governed by liberals.
D. The rights of man come from the hand of God.
57. What is Kennedy’s promise to the world?
A. To support liberty.
B. To abolish all forms of human poverty.
C. To visit each country at least once.
D. To support and friend.
58. What should citizens of the world ask of America?
A. How America can help them.
B. If America plans to invade their country.
C. What they can do for freedom.
D. What they can do for America.
59. Which of the following statement is NOT true according to
the passage?
A. Human beings have the power to put an end to all forms of
B. We should remember we are the first revolution.
C. Our nation has always been committed to human rights.
D. We should assure the survival and the success of liberty.
Aggressive pedestrians are in fact as dangerous as careless
drivers. They cause traffic accidents, injury and death.
These dangerous walkers can be seen in any big city all over the
world. About 69% of last year’s pedestrian deaths in the US
occurred in urban areas. They cross streets ignoring “DON’T WALK”
signals, suddenly appear without warning from behind parked
vehicles, walk slowly at crossroads with cell phones attached to
heads, blocking traffic.
These pedestrians and drivers share a common disregard for the
rules of the road, both for selfish reasons. The drivers believe in
the power of their machines. If their machines can go faster, they
believe they have the right to go faster. If their machines are
bigger, they believe they have the right to push smaller vehicles
aside. Aggressive pedestrians, on the other hand, believe in the
primacy(首位) of the individual, the idea that they are first in any
environment, under any circumstances, even when they are on foot in
a roaring tide of steel and rubber.
Last year, an estimated 5,220 pedestrians died in traffic
accidents. Some 69,000 pedestrians were injured. On average, that
worked out to one pedestrian killed in a traffic crash every 101
minutes, and one injured every eight minutes.
The good news is that the accident rate is dropping. For
example, the number of pedestrians killed last year was 24 percent
less than the number killed in traffic accidents a decade earlier.
The bad news is that the basic causes of pedestrian deaths remain
pretty much the same----disregard for traffic signals, inattention
and crossing roads under the influence of alcohol and drugs.
Alcohol, in fact, was involved in 46 percent of the traffic
accidents that resulted in pedestrian deaths. Of those, 31 percent
of the pedestrians were found to be drunk.
The bottom line is that the pedestrians must do more to protect
their lives as well as the lives of other road users. They can
start by , using marked
cross-walks and calling a cab when they’ve had too much to
60. The passage is mainly about _____.
A. how aggressive pedestrians cause traffic accidents
B. why so many Americans were killed on roads last year
C. what the traffic rules of the road about pedestrians were
D. who are to blame for pedestrian deaths, drunk drivers or the
aggressive pedestrians
61. What is the pedestrians’ selfish reason for traffic
A. They know all drivers are skilled and with great care.
B. They believe individuals are always first.
C. They think traffic rules have nothing to do with them.
D. They guess all vehicles will slow down at crossroads.
62. What was NOT the basic cause of pedestrian deaths in the US
a decade ago?
A. Disregard for traffic
signals&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
B. Paying no attention to surroundings.
C. Crossing roads
drunk.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
D. Overspeeding driving.
63. What word can best describe the author’s attitude to the
traffic accidents caused by pedestrians?
Excited.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Cold.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Concerned&&&&&&&&&&&
D. Unconnected.
Rae and Bruce Hostetler not only work very hard，they also relax
just as well. Numerous vacations help the couple to maintain their
health and emotional well-being一and it’s no surprise to health care
professionals.
“Rest, relaxation, and stress reduction are very important for
people’s well-being and health. This can be accomplished through
daily activities, such as exercise and meditation, but vacation is
an important part of this as well,” said primary care physician
Natasha Withers from One Medical Group in New York. Withers lists a
decreased risk of heart disease and improved reaction time as some
of the benefits from taking some time off. “We also know that the
mind is very powerful and can help with healing, so a rested,
relaxed mind is able to help the body heal better,” said
Psychologists confirm the value of vacations for the mind. “The
impact that taking a vacation has on one’s mental health is great,”
said Francine Lederer, a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles who
specializes in stress and relationship management. “Most people
have better life perspective and are more motivated to achieve
their goals after a vacation, even if it is a 24- hour time-out.”
The trips could be good for their health, good for their family and
good for their businesses.
The online travel agency Expedia conducted a survey about
vacation time in 2010, and according to their data the average
American earned 18 vacation days一but only used 14 of them. France
topped the list, with the average worker earning 37 vacation days
and using all but two of them. Americans, responses may not be
surprising in a culture where long hours on the job often are
valued, but that’s not always good for the individual, the family
or the employer.
Psychologists have also found that people who don’t take enough
time to relax may find it harder to relax in the future. “Without
time and opportunity to do this, the nerve connections that produce
feelings of calm and peacefulness become weaker, making it actually
more difficult to shift into less-stressed states,” Mulhem

A. dislike family

B. have the shortest vacation

More UK universities should be profiting from ideas
　　A repeated criticism of the UK's university sector is its
noticeable weakness in translating new knowledge into new products
and services.
　　Recently, the UK National Stem Cell Network warned the UK
could lose its place among the world leaders in stem cell research
unless adequate funding and legislation could be assured, despite
an annual &40m spent by the Department of Health on all kinds of
　　However, we do have to challenge the unthinking complaint that
the sector does not do enough in taking ideas to market. The most
recent comparative data on the performance of universities and
research institutions in Australia, Canada, USA and UK shows that,
from a relatively weak starting position, the UK now leads on many
indicators of commercialization activity.
　　When viewed at the national level, the policy
interventions (interference) of the past decade have helped
transformed the performances of UK universities. Evidence suggests
the UK's position is much stronger than in the recent past and is
still showing improvement. But national data masks the very large
variation in the performance of individual universities. The
evidence shows that a large number of universities have fallen off
the back of the pack, a few perform strongly and the rest chase the
　　This type of uneven distribution is not strange to the UK and
is mirrored across other economies. In the UK, research is
concentrated: less than 25% of universities are receiving 75% of
the research funding. These same universities are also the
institutions producing the greatest share of PhD graduates, science
citations, patents and license income. The effect of policies
generating long-term resource concentration has also created a
distinctive set of universities which are research-led and
commercially active. It seems clear that the concentration of
research and commercialization work creates differences between
universities.
　　The core objective for universities which are research-led
must be to maximize the impact of their research efforts. Their
purpose is not to generate funds to add to the bottom line of the
university or to substitute other income streams. Rather, these
universities should be generating the widest range of social,
economic and environmental benefits. In return for the scale of
investment, they should share their expertise (expert knowledge or
skill) in order to build greater confidence in the sector.
　　Part of the economic recovery of the UK will be driven by the
next generation of research commercialization spilling out of our
universities. On the evidence presented in my report, there are
three dozen universities in the UK which are actively engaged in
advanced research training and commercialization work.
　　If there was a greater coordination（协调）of technology transfer
offices within regions and a simultaneous (happening at the same
time) investment in the scale and functions of our graduate
schools, universities could, and should, play a key role in
positioning the UK for the next growth cycle.
67. What does the author think of UK universities in terms of
commercialization?
A. They have lost their leading position in many ways.
B. They still have a place among the world
leaders.& &&
C. They do not regard it as their
responsibility.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
D. They fail to change knowledge into money.
68. What does the author say about the national data on UK
universities’ performance in commercialization?
A. It masks the fatal weaknesses of government policy.
B. It indicates their ineffective use of government
resources.
C. It does not rank UK universities in a scientific way.
D. It does not reflect the differences among universities.
69. We can infer from Paragraph 5 that “policy interventions (in
Paragraph 4)” refers to _____.
A. concentration of resources in a limited number of
universities
B. compulsory cooperation between universities and
industries
C. government aid to non-research-oriented universities
D. fair distribution of funding for universities and research
institutions
70. What dose the author suggest research-led universities
A. Fully use their research to benefit all sectors of
B. Generously share their facilities with those short of
C. Advertise their research to win international
recognition.
D. Spread their influence among top research institutions.

When I opened my e-mail the other day, a pretty woman named
Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and
started talking enthusiastically. Every now and then she stopped to
smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an e-mail from my
brother, and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to
give him a high=speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail.
Facemail lets you send an e-mail that gets read to the receiver by
an attractive male or female form or by a clown. The software,
which is free, can be downloaded at www. .
Facemail faces are lifelike, and they copy emotions based on the
ones that you put in your text. For example, type in X, and Rachel
blows a kiss.
Life FX, the company that develops the Facemail is sure there
are broad business uses. The reason e-business is not popular, the
company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human
touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan
greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale?
And the company is talking with Whirlpool about using the
technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom can’t be
home when the kids get back from school, she can leave a note with
voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast. Personally, I’m a fan. But Facemail
should be used with words in an e-mail and add angry emotions when
you’ve got a psycho-mail.

It reminds me of the problems in our study. While studying, we
always try to read more books and do more exercises. However, we
seldom pay attention to the mistakes we’ve made, nor do we try to
correct them. Therefore, “holes” are left. Day by day, there appear
more and more “holes”, or rather the shortages. No matter how many
books we’ve read, we have never mastered any knowledge because they
have leaked out through the hole.
So we should pay attention to the mistakes we’ve made and the
holes we have in our study. Only in this way can we learn much
knowledge and fill up our mind with it.
