第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)

阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项 A

Ireland has had a very difficult history. The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer(征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United

3

Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.

In the 1840s, the main crop, potatoes，was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage (短缺) of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851. For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.

The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly, Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”， Since independence, Ireland has revived(复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc. 46．What does the author tell us in Paragraph 1? A. How the Irish fought against the English. B. How Ireland gained independence.

C. How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland. D. How two “Irelands” came into being.

47．We learn from the text that in Ireland________.

A. food shortages in the 1840s led to a decline in population

B. people are moving to the cities for lack of work in the countryside C. it is harder to make a living as a farmer than as a factory worker D. different kinds of old Irish songs are all sung with instruments 48. What can be the best title for the text?

A. Life in Ireland B. A Very Difficult History C. Ireland, Past and Present D. The Independence of Ireland B

When newspapers and radio describe the damage caused by a hurricane named Hazel, girls named Hazel are probably teased by their friends. To keep out of trouble, the Weather Bureau says,” Any resemblance between hurricane names and the names of particular girls is purely accidental.”

Some women became angry because hurricanes are given their names, but many other women are proud to see their names make headlines. They don’t even care that they are the names of destructive storms. Because more women seem to like it than dislike it, the Weather Bureau has decided to continue using girl’s names for hurricanes.

In some ways a hurricane is like a person. After it is born, it grows and develops, then becomes old and dies. Each hurricane has a character of its own. Each follows its own path through the world, and people remember it long after it gone .So it is natural to give hurricanes’ names, and to talk about them almost if they were alive.

49. What happens to girls named Hazel according to the passage?

A. They suffer from hurricanes. B. The Weather Bureau look for them.

4

C. Others often make fun of them. D. They can’t find boyfriend. 50. The underlined word “resemblance” probably means ______.

A. trouble B. difference C. sameness D. success 51. According to the passage, which is more reasonable?

A. Some women feel unhappy because hurricanes are given their names. B. A lot of women complain of the Weather Bureau. C. Many women want to be known.

D. All the hurricanes are caused by women.

52. It is natural to give hurricane names because ______. A. they become old and die B. all of them should be remembered

C. each hurricane has its own day to come D. each hurricane has its own character C

I came to India a year ago to find a village in which I could live and write but it was many months before I settled down happily in this Himalayan community. I wasted a lot of time looking for the “typical” village, yet no such thing exists. Conditions vary too widely. But the villages I stayed in had much in common—poverty, dirt, ignorance. Often the villagers themselves were puzzled, suspicious. Why had I come? I had put aside my work as a political journalist because my ideas had changed. I had come to believe that what was happening in the Third World was more important than anything else. But to understand how threequarters of the world’s people live, and how their future might affect ours, I felt that I first had to try and share their way of life. In the end I chose a mountain village because it was a little cooler than those in the plains. I took the bus from town along a bumpy road. Then came a rough walk down a steep path to the river. After this I began the climb into the Mils. Whenever I stopped to catch my breath, there was a magnificent view. After several hours’ walk the village came into view. 53. After the writer had arrived in India A.. he spent a year writing about in India.

B .he took a long time finding a suitable place to live. C he spent years for a certain village.

D .he lived in a Himalayan community for many months. 54. Before coming to India the writer

A. had been a successful politician. B. had made a decision to do no more work. C. had been dismissed from his job. D. had written articles for publication

55．The writer decided to change his way of life because. A．he no longer found his work interesting

B．he wanted to live a peaceful life in the countryside C．he wanted to find out more about the Third World

D．he thought living in a small community would be rewarding 56．The village the writer finally chose to live.
