Time to Stop Traveling by Air
Twenty-fiveyears ago a young British man called Mark Ellingham decided that he wanted achange of scenery. So he went to Australia, stopping off in many countries between.He also decided to write about the experience and produced a guide for other travelersmaking similar journeys.
In 1970, Britishairports were used by 32 million people. In 2004, the figure was 216 million.In 2030，accordingto government forecasts, it will be around 500 million. It’s a growth driven bythe emergence of low cost airlines, offering access to all parts of the worldfor less than ￡100.
This has made a hugecontribution to global warming. One return flight from Britain to the USproduces the same carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) as a year’s motoring (驾车). A return flight to Australia equals the emissions (排放) of three average cars for ayear. And the pollution is released at a height where its effect on climatechange is more than double that on the ground.
Mark Ellinghambuilt his business on helping people travel. Now he wants to help people stop—at least by air.
He is callingfor a ￡100 green tax on all flights to Europe and Africa, and ￡250 on flightsto the rest of the world. He also wants investment to create a low-carboneconomy, as well as a halt to airport expansion.
Mark Ellingham’scommitment is important because his readers aren’t just the sort of young andadventurous people who would happily jump on a plane to spend a weekendexploring a foreign culture. They are also the sort of people who say they careabout the environment. It’s a debate that splits people down the middle.
The touristindustry has responded by offering offsetting (补偿) schemes. A small increase in the price of aticket is used to plant trees.
But critics say thatit is not enough to just be carbon neutral. We should be actively cutting backon putting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. And for the average person,making a plane journey will be his or her largest contribution to globalwarming. It may be good to repair the damage we do. But surely it is better notto do the damage in the first place.
16. Mark Ellingham spent quite a few daysin China on his way to Australia 25 years ago.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
17.Traveling from Britain to any other part of the world may cost you less than ￡100.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
18. A round trip flight from Britain to Australia produces the sameamount of carbon dioxide as three average cars do in a year.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
19. Mark Ellingham has never hesitated toencourage people to travel by.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
20. Mark Ellingham’s readers are notinterested in environmental protection.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
21. Critics argue that the best way toprotect our environment is not to do any damage to it.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
22. Mark Ellingham will collaborate withthe critics in his efforts to fight global warming.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
【答案与解析】
16.C 定位根据题干定位至第一段。
点睛文章第一段第二句提到“So he went to Australia, stopping off inmany countries between.，但并未提到他在去澳大利亚的途中在中国呆了几天，故选C项。
17.A 定位根据题干定位至第二段。
点睛文章第二段第一句话提到英国机场使用人数激增，接着第二句话解释原因“It’s a growthdriven by the emergence of low cost airlines, offering access to all parts ofthe world for less than ￡100.”，由此可知，从英国飞往世界任何其他地方的花费都不超过100英镑，故答案为A项。
18.B 定位根据题干定位至第三段。
点睛文章第三段第三句提到“A return flight to Australia equals theemissions (排放) ofthree average cars for a year.”，指的是从英国到澳大利亚的返程航班，而不是往返航班，因此题干表示错误，故选B项。
19.B 定位根据题干定位至第四段。
点睛根据文章第四段“Mark Ellingham built his business onhelping people travel. Now he wants to help people stop—at least by air.”可知，Mark Ellingham以前致力于帮助人们旅行，现在他想要帮助人们停止旅行，至少是停止乘坐飞机。该说法与题干相矛盾，故答案为B项。
20.B 定位根据关键词Mark Ellingham’s readers定位至倒数第三段。
点睛第三段中提到Mark Ellingham的读者“… are also the sort of people who say they careabout the environment.”，由此可知，他的读者是关心环境的，故题干表示错误，答案为B项。
21.A 定位根据关键词critics定位至文章最后一段。
点睛最后一段中评论家认为“We should be actively cutting back onputting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere”，也就是我们应该积极地减少温室气体的排放，也就是题干中提到的保护环境最好的方法是不要破坏环境，故选A项。
22.C 点睛最后文章并没有提到Mark Ellingham将于评论家合作，一同努力对抗全球变暖，故选C项。
【全文翻译】
是时候该停止乘飞机旅行
25年前一个叫Mark Ellingham的英国人决定想要换个地方。于是，他去了澳大利亚，期间在在很多国家停留。他还决定将自己的经验写下来，为其他有着类似行程的旅行者提供指南。
1970年，英国机场的客流量达到0.32亿。在2004年，这一数据达到2.16亿。根据政府的预测，到2030年，将会达到5亿。这一增长是因为低价航班的出现，从英国到世界上其他任何地区的花费都不超过100英镑。
这大大加剧了全球变暖。从英国到美国的返程航行所产生的二氧化碳相当于驾车一年的排放量。从英国到澳大利亚返程航行的排放量相当于三辆普通汽车一年的排放量。高空中排放的污染物对气候的影响是地面排放的两倍。
Mark Ellingham通过帮助人们旅行成立了自己的公司。现在他想帮助人们停止旅行——至少是停止乘坐飞机。
他正呼吁对于飞往欧洲、非洲的所有航班征收100英镑的环保税。对于飞往世界其他地区的航班征收250英镑的税。他还想吸引投资形成低碳经济，停止机场扩建。
Mark Ellingham的承诺非常重要，因为他的读者不只是那些欢快的跳上飞机花费一周研究外国文化爱冒险的年轻人。他们也是自称关心环境的一类人。这一争论将人们划分开来。
作为回应，旅游行业提出了补偿方案。机票价格上涨的部分用于植树。
但评论家认为只进行碳中和是不够的。我们应该积极地减少向大气中排放温室气体。对普通人来讲，乘坐飞机旅行会极大地加剧全球变暖。弥补我们造成的损害是好的，但可以肯定的是我们最好是首先不要破坏环境。
第3部分：概括大意与完成句子(第23～30题，每题l分，共8分)
下面的短文后有2项测试任务：(1)第23～26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第1～4段每段选择l个最佳标题；(2)第27～30题要求从所给的6个选项中为每个句子确定1个最佳选项。
Tunguska Event
1 A hundredyears ago this week, a gigantic explosion ripped (撕裂) open the day above a forestin western Siberia, leaving a scientific riddle that endures to this day.
2 A dazzlinglight pierced the heavens, followed by a shock wave as strong as 1,000 atomicbombs. The explosion flattened 80 million trees across an area of 2,000 squarekilometers. The fireball was so great that, a day later, Londoners could readtheir newspapers under the night sky. What caused the so-called Tunguska Event,named after the nearby Podkamennaya Tunguska river, still remains a mystery.
3 Expertssuspect it was a rock that, after traveling in space for millions of years, wasdestined to crash to Earth at exactly 7:17 a.m. on June 30, 1908. Thispossibility worries scientists. “Imagine an unspotted asteroid (小行星) hitting a significant chunk(块) of land ... andimagine if that area, unlike Tunguska, were populated,” the British sciencejournal Nature commented recently.
4 But nofragments of the “rock” have ever been found. Finding such evidence would beimportant, for it would increase our knowledge about the risk posed bydangerous Near Earth Objects (NEOs), say Italian researchers Luca Gasperini,Enrico Bonatti and Giuseppe Longo. When the next Tunguska NEO approaches,scientists will have to decide whether to try to deflect (使偏转) it or blow it up in space.
5 However,several rival theories for the Tunguska Event exist. Wolfgang Kundt, aprofessor at Germany’s Bonn University, believes the Tunguska Event was causedby a massive escape of 10 million tons of methane (甲烷) -rich gas from deep withinearth’s crust. Some people hold that the explosion was caused by an alienspaceship crash, or a black hole in the universe.
23.Paragraph 2 _____
24.Paragraph 3 _____
25.Paragraph 4 _____
26.Paragraph 5 _____
| A. Competing Explanations B. Unknown Attacks C. Mysterious Explosion D. Star War E. Importance of Finding Evidence F. Explanation that Worries Scientists |
27. The gigantic explosion that occurred ahundred years ago _____.
28. The shock wave which followed thedazzling light _____.
29. The hypothesis that the explosion wascaused by a rock colliding with the Earth _____.
30. Wolfgang Kundt, who has developed analternative theory _____.
| A. has remained a puzzle B. lacks sufficient evidence C. is a university professor D. was generated by the explosion E. will kill many animals F. are attacked by aliens |
【答案与解析】
23.C 第二段主要描述了这次爆炸的威力和剧烈程度，并且在最后指出爆炸目前仍然是一个谜团。C项“神秘的爆炸”符合本段主要内容，因此选C项。
24.F 第三段首先提到科学家推测的碰撞理论，接着提到“This possibility worries scientists”，并具体介绍了科学家所担忧的事情，由此可知，F项“使科学家担忧的解释”符合本段大意，因此选F项。
25.E 第四段第二句就提到了“Finding such evidence would be important”，并给出了具体的理由，由此可知，E项“找到证据的重要性”符合本段主要内容，因此本题选E项。
26.A 第五段第一句为主题句，其中提到“关于通古斯大爆炸，还存在着其他竞争的理论。”由此可知，A项“竞争的解释”符合本段内容，因此选A项。
27.A 点睛根据第一段“A hundred years ago this week, a gigantic explosion…leaving ascientific riddle that endures to this day”可知，爆炸至今仍然是一个谜团，因此本题选A项。
28.D 定位根据关键词shock wave和dazzling light定位到第二段。
点睛第二段是对第一段提到的巨大爆炸的描述，由此可知，耀眼的光和冲击波是由于爆炸产生的。本题选D项。
29.B 定位根据关键词hypothesis和caused by a rock定位到第三段和第四段。
点睛根据第四段第一句可知，关于太空岩石碰撞地球的理论，目前还没有找到证据，因此本题选B项。
30.C 定位根据关键词Wolfgang Kundt定位到第五段第二句。
点睛根据第五段第二句“Wolfgang Kundt, a professor at Germany’sBonn University”可知，本题选C项。
【全文翻译】
通古斯大爆炸
1．一百年前的这个星期，一个巨大的爆炸撕裂了西伯利亚西部森林上面的天空，留下一个科学之谜，延续至今。
2．耀眼的光刺穿天际，接着是一个冲击波，像1000颗原子弹一样强烈。爆炸将2000平方公里8000万棵树木夷为平地。火球如此之大，甚至一天后，伦敦人仍然可在夜空下阅读报纸。是什么导致了所谓的“通古斯大爆炸”仍然是个谜。“通古斯大爆炸”得名于附近的通古斯河。
3．专家怀疑这是一块在太空旅行了数百万年之后注定要碰撞到地球的岩石，落入地球的确切时间是1908年6月30日上午7:17。这种可能性使科学家们担心。英国科学杂志《自然》最近评论到，“想象一个未被察觉的小行星碰撞到一块巨大的陆地……想象一下，假如被碰撞的地区不像通古斯一样，而是人口密集。”
4．但是没人找到“岩石”的碎片。意大利研究人员Luca Gasperini、Enrico Bonatti和Giuseppe Longo说，找到这样的证据很重要，因为它会增加我们对危险的近地天体（NEOs）所带来的风险的知识。当下一个通古斯近地天体向地球靠近，科学家们将不得不决定是使其偏转，还是让它在太空爆炸。
5．然而，关于通古斯大爆炸，还存在着其他与之竞争的理论。德国波恩大学教授Wolfgang Kundt认为，通古斯大爆炸是由从地壳深处大量逃逸的1000万吨富含甲烷的气体造成的。有些人则认为，爆炸源于一架外星飞船的坠毁，或者是因为宇宙中的黑洞。
第4部分：阅读理解(第31～45题，每题3分，共45分)
下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。
第一篇Medicine Award Kicks off Nobel Prize Announcements
Two scientistswho have won praise for research into the growth of cancer cells could becandidates for the Nobel Prize in medicine when the 2008 winners are presentedon Monday, kicking off six days of Nobel announcements.
Australian-bornUS citizen Elizabeth Blackburn and American Carol Greider have already won aseries of medical honors for their enzyme (酶) research and experts say they could be among thefront-runners for a Nobel.
Among the pair’spossible rivals are Frenchman Pierre Chambon and Americans Ronald Evans andElwood Jensen, who opened up the field of studying proteins called nuclearhormone receptors (受体).
As usual, thetight-lipped award committee is giving no hints about who is in the runningbefore presenting its decision in a news conference at Stockholm’s KarolinskaInstitute.
Alfred Nobel,the Swede who invented dynamite (炸药), established the prizes in his will in the categories of medicine,physics, chemistry, literature and peace. The economics prize is technicallynot a Nobel but a 1968 creation of Sweden’s central bank.
Nobel left fewinstructions on how to select winners, but medicine winners are typicallyawarded for a specific breakthrough rather than a body of research.
Hans Jornvall,secretary of the medicine prize committee, said the 10 million kronor (瑞典克朗) (US $1.3 million) prizeencourages groundbreaking research but he did not think winning it was theprimary goal for scientists.
“Individualresearchers probably don’t look at themselves as potential Nobel Prize winnerswhen they’re at work,” Jornvall told The Associated Press. “They get their kicks from their research and their interest inhow life functions.”
In 2006,Blackburn, of the University of California, San Francisco, and Greider, of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, shared the Lasker prize for basic medical research withJack Szostak of Harvard Medical School. Their work set the stage for researchsuggesting that cancer cells use telomerase (端粒酶) to sustain (维持) their uncontrolled growth.
31. Who is most unlikely to win the NobelPrize in medicine?
A. Hans Jornvall.
B. CarolGreider.
C. PierreChambon.
D. ElizabethBlackburn.
32.Which is NOT true of Alfred Nobel?
A. He leftclear instructions on how to select winners.
B. He was from Sweden.
C. He inventeddynamite.
D. Heestablished the Nobel Prizes in his will.
33. Originally the Nobel Prizes did NOTinclude _____.
A. the peaceprize
B. theeconomics prize
C. theliterature prize
D. the medicineprize
34. The word “kicks” in Paragraph 8probably means _____.
A. money
B. enjoyment
C. respect
D. knowledge
35. Telomerase may play a key role in_____.
A. the uncheckedgrowth of cancer cells
B. the killingof cancer cells
C. the divisionof normal cells
D. thetransmission of viruses
【答案与解析】
| 31. Who is most unlikely to win the Nobel Prize in medicine? | 31. 谁最不可能获得诺贝尔医学奖？ | | A. Hans Jornvall. B. Carol Greider. C. Pierre Chambon. D. Elizabeth Blackburn. | A. 汉斯·乔恩瓦尔。 B. 卡罗尔·格雷德。 C. 皮埃尔·尚邦。 D. 伊丽莎白·布莱克本。 |
31.A 点睛根据文章倒数第三段中“Hans Jornvall, secretary of the medicine prize committee…”可知，Hans Jornvall只是诺贝尔医学奖委员会的秘书，文章并没有提到他对医学的贡献，故答案为A项。
避错文章第二段提到Elizabeth Blackburn和Carol Greider在诺贝尔奖的竞选中处于领先地位，故排除B、D项。第三段又提到Pierre Chambon是他们可能的竞争对手，故排除C项。
| 32. Which is NOT true of Alfred Nobel? | 32. 关于阿尔弗雷德·诺贝尔的表述，哪一项是不正确的？ | | A. He left clear instructions on how to select winners. B. He was from Sweden. C. He invented dynamite. D. He established the Nobel Prizes in his will. | A. 他清楚地规定怎样选择获奖者。 B. 他来自于瑞典。 C. 他发明了炸药。 D. 根据他的遗嘱，创建了诺贝尔奖。 |
32.A 点睛第六段第一句话提到“Nobel left few instructions on how to select winners”，所以在如何选出获奖者上，他给出了很少的指导，故A项表述错误，故答案为A项。
避错根据第一句话中的“Alfred Nobel, the Swede who inventeddynamite (炸药), establishedthe prizes in his will”可知，阿尔弗雷德·诺贝尔来自与瑞典，发明了炸药，在他的遗嘱中提到创建诺贝尔奖，故B、C、D项均表述正确。
| 33. Originally the Nobel Prizes did NOT include _____. | 33. 起初，诺贝尔奖不包括 _____。 | | A. the peace prize B. the economics prize C. the literature prize D. the medicine prize | A. 和平奖 B. 经济学奖 C. 文学奖 D. 医学奖 |
33.B 点睛根据文章第五段中最后一句“The economics prize is technically not a Nobel but a 1968 creationof Sweden’s central bank.”可知，经济学奖严格来讲不是诺贝尔奖，而是后来设立的，故答案为B项。

34.B 定位根据题干可定位至第八段。
点睛第八段中Jornvall提到研究人员在研究的时候并不认为自己可能会获得诺贝尔奖，他们从他们的研究以及对生命运转方式的兴趣中获得乐趣，通过后面的“interest”一词推测，kicks的意思应该是“乐趣”，故答案为B项。
| 35. Telomerase may play a key role in _____. | 35. 端粒酶在_____中起关键作用。 | | A. the unchecked growth of cancer cells B. the killing of cancer cells C. the division of normal cells D. the transmission of viruses | A. 癌细胞的无拘生长 B. 杀死癌细胞 C. 正常细胞的分离 D. 病毒的转移 |
35.A 定位根据Telomerase定位至最后一段最后一句。
点睛根据最后一句“Their work set the stage for researchsuggesting that cancer cells use telomerase (端粒酶) to sustain (维持) their uncontrolled growth.”可知，端粒酶是用来维持癌细胞疯狂生长的物质，故答案为A项。

诺贝尔奖的公布从医学奖开始
两位因研究癌细胞的生长而赢得赞誉的科学家可能成为2008年诺贝尔医学奖的候选人，周一将为医学奖获奖者进行颁奖，从而开始诺贝尔奖为期六天的公布。
由于对酶的研究，出生于澳大利亚的美国人伊丽莎白·布莱克本和另外一位美国人开罗·格雷德已经赢得了一系列医学方面的荣誉。专家认为他们最有可能获得这次的医学奖。
布莱克本和格雷德的竞争对手有来自法国的皮埃尔·尚本、来自美国的罗纳德·依文斯和艾尔伍德·杰森，他们开创了核激素受体这一蛋白质研究的新领域。
与以前一样，在斯德哥尔摩卡罗林斯卡学院召开新闻发布会并公布决定之前，守口如瓶的评奖委员会没有给出任何关于候选人是谁的暗示。
阿尔弗雷德·诺贝尔是瑞典人，他发明了甘油炸药。他在遗嘱里确立了诺贝尔奖并将其分为医学奖、物理学奖、化学奖、文学奖及和平奖。严格来说，经济学奖不是诺贝尔而是瑞典中央银行在1968年创立的。
诺贝尔没有留下关于如何评奖的指导，然而，医学奖的获得通常是由于具体的突破，而不是大量的研究。
医学奖委员会秘书汉斯·乔恩瓦说，1000万瑞典克朗(相当于130万美元)的奖金可以鼓励开拓性研究，然而，他认为，赢得奖金并不是科学家的初衷。
“从事研究工作时，研究者很可能并不把自己看成未来的诺贝尔奖获得者。”乔恩瓦这样对美联社记者说，“他们的动力来自他们的研究以及对生命运转方式的兴趣。”
2006年，来自旧金山加利福尼亚大学的布莱克本、来自巴尔的摩约翰·霍普金斯大学的格雷德与来自哈佛医学院的杰克·绍斯塔克共同获得了拉斯克尔基础医学奖。他们的工作为研究癌细胞利用端粒酶以维持不可控制的生长打下了基础。
第二篇Ethnic Tensions in Belgium
Belgium hasgiven the world Audrey Hepburn, Rene Magritte (surrealist artist), thesaxophone (萨克斯管) anddeep – fried potato chips that are somehow called French.
But the storybehind this flat, twice – Beijing - size country is of a bad marriage betweentwo nationalities living together that cannot stand each other. With no newgovernment, more than a hundred days after a general election, rumors run wildthat the country is about to disappear.
“We are twodifferent nations, an artificial state. With nothing in common except a king,chocolate and beer.” said Filp Dewinter, the leader of the Flemish Bloc, theextreme-right Flemish party.
Radical Flemishseparatists like Mr. Dewinter want to divide the country horizontally alongethnic and economic lines: to the north, Flanders—where Dutch (known locally asFlemish) is spoken and money is increasingly made; to the south,French-speaking Wallonla, where today old factories dominate the landscape.
The area ofpresent-day Belgium was passed to the French in the 18th century. Following thedefeat of Napoleon in 1815, Belgium was given to the kingdom of the Netherlands, from which it gained independence as a separate kingdom in 1830.
Since then, ithas struggled for cohesion (结合). Anyone who has spoken French in a Flemish city quickly gets asense of the mutual hostility that is part of daily life there.
But there arereasons Belgium is likely to stay together, at least in the short term.
The economies ofthe two regions are tightly linked, and separation would be a financialnightmare.
But there isalso deep resentment in Flanders that its much healthier economy must subsidize(补贴) the south,where unemployment is double that of the north. French speakers in the south,meanwhile, favor the status quo (现状).
Belgium has made it through previous threats of division. Although somepolitical analysts believe this one is different, there is no panic just now.
“We must notworry too much.” said Baudouln Bruggeman, a 55-year-old school-teacher. “Belgium has survived on compromise since 1930. You have to remember that this is Magritte’scountry, the country of surrealism. Anything can happen.”

比利时民族关系紧张
比利时在世界上拥有奥黛丽·赫本、勒内·马格利特（一位超现实主义艺术家）、萨克斯管和不知怎的被称作法式油炸薯片的东西。
在这个地势平坦，面积是北京的两倍的国家背后是两个民族糟糕的结合。它们生活在一起，但都无法忍受对方。大选过去100多天了，仍然没有成立新的政府，谣言四起，认为这个国家将要消失。
“我们是两个不同的民族组成的一个不真实的国家。这两个民族除了有一个共同的国王、巧克力和啤酒，别的再无共同点。”Filp Dewinter说道。他是极右的佛兰芒党的领袖，即佛兰芒集团党的领袖。
激进的佛兰芒分裂主义分子如Mr. Dewinter想要沿着民族和经济线横向地切分这个国家:北边是佛兰德斯，讲荷兰语（当地认为是佛兰芒语），财富不断增长；南边是讲法语的瓦隆尼亚地区，也就是现在以就工厂为主导的地区。
18世纪，现在比利时的区域交由法国控制。1815年拿破仑战败，比利时开始由荷兰王国掌管。1830年它摆脱荷兰王国的控制，赢得独立，成为一个独立的王国。
从那以后，它就开始进行国家统一的斗争。在佛兰芒城市任何讲法语的人都会引起相互之间的敌意，这已经成为那里日常生活的一部分。
但比利时有理由有可能实现统一，至少在短期内能够做到。
这两个地区的经济紧密相连，它们的分裂将会是一场金融噩梦。
但佛兰德斯人怀有深深的怨恨之情，因为他们经济富裕必须要补贴南部地区。南部地区的失业人口是北部的两倍。然而，南部讲法语的人却安于现状。
比利时已经克服了之前的几次分裂危机。尽管一些政治分析家相信这次与以往不同，眼下却没有恐慌发生。
“我们不必过度担忧，”55岁的教师Baudouln Bruggeman说，“1930年以来，比利时在妥协中获得生存。你要记住，这是马格利特的国家，这是一个超现实主义的国家。一切都有可能发生。”
第三篇Sports Star Yao Ming
If Yao Ming isnot the biggest sports star in the world, he is almost certainly the tallest.At 2.26m, he is the tallest player in the National Basketball Association (NBA)and holds the record as the most towering Olympian ever to compete in theGames.
But what reallystands out about the giant center is his celebrity (名气). Few, if any, Chineseathletes are as well - known as Yao around the world. People across the globeare fascinated with Yao, not only for his basketball prowess (杰出的才能) but also for being asymbol of international commerce.
When Yao joined the Houston Rockets as the No. 1 pick in the 2002 NBA draft (选拔), he was the firstinternational player ever to be selected first. His assets on the court areclear enough — noNBA player of his size has ever possessed his mobility, so he is a handful (难对付的人) for opponents on eitherend of the court. But what makes Yao invaluable to the Rockets organization ishis role as a global citizen and as a bridge to millions of potentialbasketball fans in China.
When it wasannounced in February that Yao would miss the rest of the NBA season and possiblythe Olympics with a stress fracture (骨折) in his left foot, a collective shudder (震动) spread across China. Afterconsiderable debate and discussion, Yao opted to get his foot surgicallytreated in an operation that placed several tiny screws across the bone, tooffer his overburdened foot more support. The surgery was a success, and thoughthe estimated four-month recovery period will leave him little time to preparewith Team China, Yao has vowed to be ready for the Beijing Olympics.
Yao wrapped up a 10-day trip to China, where he underwent a series oftraditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments, hoping to accelerate hisrecovery process. Western experts are generally skeptical of TCM’s benefits,although new research from the university of Rochester suggests that a certaincompound derived from shellfish may indeeed stimulate bone repair.
“There is noreason to dismiss TCM,” Yao told a press conference in Beijing. “It’s been usedin our country for thousands of years. I don’t think that it’s short on science.”

C. He missedthe Athens Olympics.
D. He is aninternational figure.
45. In general, the Western experts’attitude towards TCM is _____.

B. indifferent
C. positive
D. negative

点睛根据第三段第二句中的“no NBA player of his size has everpossessed his mobility”，可知，由于姚明身材高大且移动迅速，他很难对付。因此本题选D项。
避错文章第二段提到了姚明的名气，但是这并不是他很难对付的原因，因此C项不符合题意。A项和B项文中没有提及，因此排除。
| 43. Yao Ming had to undergo a series of TCM treatments because _____. | 43. 姚明必须经受一系列的中医药治疗，因为____。 | | A. his right foot had been hurting B. he wanted to make a more rapid recovery C. the surgical operation had been a failure D. he couldn’t afford all the medical expenses | A. 他的右脚一直在疼痛 B. 他想更快地恢复 C. 手术失败 D. 他不能支付医药费 |

44.C 点睛文章第一段第二句就介绍了姚明是NBA中最高的一名球员，因此A项表述正确。根据文章第二段可知，姚明名气大，是国际商务的一个象征，因此D项与原文表述相符。文章第四段第一句提到了姚明左脚骨折，因此B项表述正确。第四段只提到姚明有可能错过奥运会，并且根据第四段最后一句可知，这里指的是北京奥运会，因此C项表述明显错误。因此本题选C项。
| 45. In general, the Western experts’ attitude towards TCM is _____. | 45. 总体上而言，西方专家对中医药的态度是____。 | | A. doubtful B. indifferent C. positive D. negative | A. 怀疑的 B. 冷漠的 C. 积极的 D. 消极的 |
45.A 定位根据关键词western experts’ attitude和TCM定位到最后两段。
点睛根据倒数第二段最后一句可知，“Western experts are generallyskeptical of TCM’s benefits”，skeptical意思为“怀疑的”，因此本题选A项。

体育明星姚明
如果姚明不是世界上最大的体育明星，那他几乎肯定是最高的。身高2.26米，他是美国国家篮球协会（NBA）最高的球员，并且是参加奥林匹克比赛的选手中最高身高的记录保持者。
但是真正突出的是他的名气。很少有中国运动员，如果有的话，和姚明一样在全世界有名。全球的人们都对姚明着迷，不仅是因为他的篮球技术杰出，也因为他是国际商务的一个象征。
当姚明在2002年NBA选秀中作为状元加入休斯敦火箭队时，他是第一个被选为状元的国际球员。他在场上的价值显而易见——没有NBA球员像他一样身材高大却移动迅速，所以整个篮球场上他都是一个难以对付的对手。但是姚明对火箭队不可估量的作用在于他作为全球公民的角色，以及他成为一座桥梁，连接着数百万的潜在中国篮球迷。
在2月份，当宣布姚明由于左脚压力骨折而将错过NBA剩下的赛季，而且还有可能错过奥林匹克时，整个中国无不震惊。在大量的辩论和讨论后，姚明选择在脚上动一个手术，放置几个小螺丝穿过骨头，从而给他不堪重负的脚更多的支撑。手术是成功的，虽然预计的四个月的恢复期将给他留下不多的时间来与中国队磨合，但姚明已经誓言要为北京奥运会做好准备。
姚明结束了一个为期10天的中国之行，在那里他接受了一系列的中医药治疗，希望能加速他的康复过程。西方专家普遍对中药的益处表示怀疑，尽管罗切斯特大学的新研究表明，某些来自贝壳类的化合物确实能刺激骨修复。
“没有理由不用中医药，”姚明在北京的一个新闻发布会上说。“在我们国家中医药已经有几千年的历史了。我认为它并不缺乏科学。”
第5部分：补全短文（第46~50题，每题2分，共10分）

What Is a Dream?
For centuries,people have wondered about the strange things that they dream about. Somepsychologists say that this nighttime activity of the mind has no special meaning.Others, however, think that dreams are an important part of our lives. In fact,many experts believe that dreams can tell us about a person’s mind andemotions.
Before moderntimes, many people thought that dreams contained messages from God. (46)
The Austrianpsychologist, Sigmund Freud, was probably the first person to study dreamsscientifically. In his famous book, The interpretation of Dreams (1900),Freud wrote that dreams are an expression of a person’s wishes. He believedthat dreams allow people to express the feelings, thoughts, and fears that theyare afraid to express in real life.
The Swisspsychiatrist Carl Jung was once a student of Freud’s. Jung, however, had adifferent idea about dreams. Jung believed that the purpose of a dream was tocommunicate a message to the dreamer. (47) Forexample, people who dream about falling may learn that they have too high anopinion of themselves. On the other hand, people who dream about being heroesmay learn that they think too little of themselves.
Modern-daypsychologists continue to develop theories about dreams. For example,psychologist William Domhoff from the University of California, Santa Cruz, believes that dreams are tightly linked to a person’s daily life, thoughts,and behavior. (48)
Domhoff believesthat there is a connection between dreams and age. His research shows thatchildren do not dream as much as adults. According to Domhoff, dreaming is amental skill that needs time to develop.
He has alsofound a link between dreams and gender. His studies show that the dreams of menand women are different. (49) This is not trueof women’s dreams. Domhoff found this gender difference in the dreams of peoplefrom 11 cultures around the world, including both modern and traditional ones.
Can dreams helpus understand ourselves? Psychologists continue to try to answer this questionin different ways. (50) The dream may havemeaning, but it does not mean that some terrible event will actually takeplace. It’s important to remember that the world of dreams is not the realworld.
A. For example, the people in men’s dreams are often other men, andthe dreams often involve fighting.
B. Men and women dream about different things.
C. A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.
D. However, one thing they agree on is: If you dream that somethingterrible is going to occur, you shouldn’t panic.
E. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to studydreams in a scientific way.
F. He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinkingabout their dreams.
【答案与解析】
46.E 空格前一句讲到在现代时期以前，很多人认为梦包含着来自上帝的旨意，而下一段开始讲弗洛伊德是科学研究梦的第一人，E项起到承上启下的作用，其中in a scientific way与下文中scientifically相呼应。
47.F 该段中提到Jung认为梦是为了告诉做梦者一些信息，之后又举例说明梦见跌倒的人说明他们太自负，而做梦成为英雄的人则太低估自己。因此可以通过做梦来了解自己，F项与之意思相近，故为正确答案。
48.C 心理学家WilliamDomhoff认为梦与一个人的日常生活、想法和行为密切相关。C项是对这一理论进行举例说明，罪犯可能会梦到从事犯罪活动。故C项放在此处恰当。
49.A 空格前提到他的研究表明男人和女人的梦不相同，而空格后则讲“This is not true ofwomen’s dreams”，由此可知空格处讲的是关于男人的梦境，故应选A项。
50.D 空格后面提到梦可能会有意义，但它并不意味着不好的事情真的要发生。D项中讲到，如果你梦到可怕的事情，不要惊慌。与后面的句子连接紧密，语义相承接，故应选D项。

梦是什么?
几百年来，人们都对他们梦到的奇异的事情感到疑惑。一些心理学家认为，这种大脑的夜间活动并没有特殊含义，另一些人则认为，梦是生命重要的一部分。实际上，许多专家认为，梦能揭示人的心理和情感活动。
近代以前，很多人认为梦传递的是上帝的信息。直到20世纪，人们才开始从科学的角度研究梦。
奥地利心理学家西格蒙德·弗洛伊德或许是第一个用科学的方法研究梦的人。在他的著作《梦的解析》(1900)中，弗洛伊德写道，梦是一个人愿望的表达。他认为梦打开了一扇窗，让人们得以表达在生活中不敢表达的情感、思想和恐惧。
瑞士精神病学家卡尔·荣格曾是弗洛伊德的学生，但他对梦的看法与弗洛伊德不同。他认为，梦的作用是给做梦的人传递一种信息，而人们通过自己的梦，可以对白己有一个更深刻的了解。比如，如果一个人梦到从高处坠落，那么他应该反思自己是不是自视过高。反过来，如果梦中自己成了英雄，应该想想平时可能太看低自己了。
现代心理学家还在继续发展关于梦的理论，例如，来自位于圣克鲁兹的加利福尼亚大学的威廉·多姆霍夫就是其中一位。他认为，梦境和一个人的日常生活、思想和行为都紧密相关，比方说，一个罪犯就可能梦到犯罪。
多姆霍大还认为，梦和年龄也有关系。他的研究表明，孩子不像成人那么多梦。他认为，做梦也是一项心理功能，也随着年龄增长而发展。
多姆霍夫还发现梦和性别之间的关系。通过研究，他发现男性和女性的梦境常常是不同的。例如，在男性梦境中出现的通常是其他男性，而且常与打斗有关，而女性的梦境则不是这样。多姆霍夫研究了全世界来自11种不同文化的古今案例，得出了上述结论。
梦能帮助我们更好地了解自己吗?心理学家还在尝试通过不同方式来解答这个问题，不过，有一件事他们是意见一致的：如果你梦到有不好的事要发生，不要慌张。梦确实有含义，但也不意味着你梦到的事真的会发生。要记住，梦中的世界并不是真实的世界。

文化差异
来自不同文化的人有时会做一些让双方觉得不舒服的事情，有时甚至会浑然不知。大多数美国人从未走出国门，几乎没有同外国人打交道的经验。但他们通常主动、友好、坦率，也喜欢认识新朋友，接待客人，在正式或非正式的场合下把朋友聚集在一起。在大多数场合他们倾向于直呼其名，自由地谈论自己的事情。因此如果美国的主人做了什么让你不舒服的事情，尽可能让他们了解你的感受。大部分人会欣赏你的诚实，尽量不会再让你感觉不舒服。你也会学到关于另一种文化的知识！
大多数旅行的人发现，比起在其他国家，在美国更容易认识别人。他们可能会直接走上前来介绍自己，甚至还没有真正了解你就邀请你去家中做客。有时，美国人的友好被认为是一种表面现象，或许看起来真是这样，但他们可能喜欢这样。就像是其他地方一样，在美国结交真正的朋友需要一段时间。
当你和美国朋友在一起时，他们可能会喜欢把你介绍给他们的朋友和家人。如果他们看起来很高兴认识你，可能是因为他们感到轻松愉悦！
