第三部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Geena David knew she wanted to be a movie star when she was very young. She was not sure what gave her the idea, but she wanted to look like a movie star. “I have a lot of pictures from my childhood of me wearing sunglasses,” she says. “I used to wear them to watch TV.”
Early movie actors started wearing sunglasses not because they looked good, but because their eyes hurt. The lights used on movie sets were extremely bright and could cause a painful problem known as “Klieg eyes”. It was named after the Klieg brothers who invented the lights. Actors wore sunglasses to give their eyes a rest. But when movie stars began wearing their sunglasses in public, they quickly became a must.
Eventually actors started wearing sunglasses in their movies as well as on the street. Audrey Hephburn wore ultra-cool Ray-Ban sunglasses in the 1961 movie, Breakfast at Tiffany’s. As a result, Ray-Ban sunglasses started to appear more and more in the movies. In 1979, Ray-Ban “Wayfarers” were worn by Jake and Elwood in The Blue Brothers. Tom Cruise wore Ray-Ban “Aviator” sunglasses in the 1986 hit, Top Gun. Then in 1997, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones made Ray-Ban “Predator” sunglasses famous in Men in Black.
　 Of course sunglasses aren’t just a fashion statement. The main reason to wear sunglasses is to protect our eyes against UV radiation. UV radiation can damage our eyes, so people now choose their sunglasses carefully. But you don’t have to give up style for safety. The choice of frames and lenses available these days is huge. So you can protect your eyes and still be the coolest person on the beach.
1．What is mainly discussed in this passage?
A．The use of sunglasses.                B．The history of sunglasses.
C．The sunglasses wearing.             D．Why movie stars like to wear sunglasses.
2．Why did Geena David like to wear sunglasses?
A．She was a movie star.
B．She wanted to follow a movie star.
C．Wearing sunglasses was good for her eyes.
D．It was good to wear sunglasses when watching TV.
3．Early actors’ eyes hurt because ______.
A．they wore sunglasses
B．they went out in the sun too much
C．the lights on movie sets were too bright
D．their scripts were written in very small writing
4．We may know from this passage that ______.
A．Audrey Hephburn was a famous film star
B．Ray-Ban is the name of sunglasses maker
C．Sunglasses made Top Gun the hit in 1986
D．M

en in Black must be an advertisement of sunglasses
5．Now people wear sunglasses ______.

第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每题3分，满分15分）
阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。（请注意问题后的字数要求）
You know you have to read “between the lines” to get the most out of anything. I want to persuade you to do something equally important in the course of your reading. I want to persuade you to “write between the lines.” Unless you do, you are not likely to do the most efficient kind of reading.
There are two ways you can own a book. The first is the property right you establish by paying for it, just as you pay for clothes and furniture. But this act of purchase is only the prelude(前奏) to possession. Full ownership comes only when you have made it a part of yourself, and the best way to make yourself a part of it is by writing in it.
Why is marking up a book necessary while reading it? First, it keeps you wide awake. In the second place, reading, if it is active, is thinking, and thinking tends to express itself in words, spoken or written. The marked book is usually the thought-through book. Finally, writing helps you remember the thoughts you had, or the thoughts the author expressed
If reading is to accomplish anything more than passing time, it must be active. You can’t let your eyes glide(滑动) across the lines of a book and come up with an understanding of what you have read．The book you read for pleasure can be read in a state of relaxation, and nothing is lost. But a great book, rich in ideas and beauty, a book that raises and tries to answer great fundamental questions, demands the most active reading which you are able to do. If, when you have finished reading a book, the pages are your notes, you know that you read actively.
76．Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one? If you “write between the lines” while reading, you probably read actively and efficiently.
________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________
77．What is owing a book in its true sense according to the author? (Please answer within 10 words.)
________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________
78．List at least two reasons of marking up a book necessary while reading

it. (Please answer within 30 words.)
________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________
79．Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.
________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________
80．Fill in the blanks in the last sentence with proper words. (Please answer within 10 words)

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
It was one of the happiest times of my life. I was 29 and had just received my bachelor’s degree, graduating with honors despite working two jobs and being a wife and mother. My parents and five - year - old son were in the audience when I walked onto the stage at Ashland University to get my diploma. I was so excited and proud to be starting a teaching career and contributing more to my family’s well - being.
But when I got home that evening, there was a note from my husband written on the back of an envelope. It basically said he’d come to get his clothes and wouldn"t be back. We’d been having trouble, but the finality of that note still came as a shock. He had emptied our bank account. We were horribly in debt. I had quit my previous jobs in expectation of interviewing for a teaching position. I was embarrassed, scared, and angry and felt I had failed.
But I had my son, and I was about to bring a new life into the world, so despite my deep sadness, I had to go on. The next morning, I woke up, put my feet on the floor, took a deep breath, fixed breakfast, and basically did everything I always did. I used my routine to keep me moving. One small step after one small step was the way I bounced back.
And in the seven years since, I"ve continued moving forward. I got a job as a kindergarten teacher, earned a master" s degree in education. I certainly would never have chosen to put them through this, but I"m glad it happened to me when looking back. It helped me find my voice and myself a lot sooner. It helped me grow independent, confident, and strong—things I" m hopefully developing gradually now in my child.

I"ve tried to explain compound interest to my eight - year - old daughter. When I have finished it, she summarizes back to me, "So, you are saying if I put $ 100 in the bank, when I turn sixteen the bank will give me $ 200?" She has already grasped more of the concept than I understood at her age, but she couldn"t clearly understand that until she sees them in action.
One day I gave her a Ziploc bag with a handful of pennies and told her over the course of a week I wanted her to give me a penny a day. I would deposit the penny in " The Bank of Dad" and compound interest would begin to accumulate the day she deposited the penny. At the end of the week we would check her bank balance.
Each day my daughter handed over one penny at the breakfast table and I deposited it in her bank. I gave her a "receipt" for her deposit and explained that she needed to keep up with the receipts to see how much money she had added to her account. In an effort to make this a little more realistic, I deposited a penny from my own piggy bank every other day to give her an additional four pennies at the end of the week.
On Sunday evening we gathered receipts and confirmed she had deposited seven pennies in "The Bank of Dad. " Then I opened the old film container and counted out its contents—all eleven pennies. "Hey, there are four extra pennies in there!" I explained that her original seven pennies had grown to eleven pennies because every couple days the bank paid her a penny for letting them use her money—that"s interest. She paused and asked, "Dad, what would happen if you deposited like a hundred million pennies in the bank?
1．We can learn from Paragraph 1 that ____.
A．the writer" s daughter understood compound interest better than him
B．the writer wanted her daughter to understand compound interest
C．the writer" s daughter understood compound interest very well
D．the writer" s daughter grasped the exact meaning of compound interest
2．Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?
A．The writer" s daughter got a handful of pennies from her father.
B．The writer got compound pennies from "The Bank of Dad".
C．The writer placed one penny in "The Bank of Dad" each day.
D．Compound interest would begin to increase at the end of the week.
3．Each day the writer’s daughter ____.
A．got a penny from her father B．received interest from her father
C．deposited a penny in her piggy bank D．handed over one penny to her father
4．What can

we infer from the passage?
A．"The Bank of Dad" paid the girl a penny each day as interest.
B．The father used a good way to show his daughter about interest.
C．There were eleven pennies in the old film container in total.
D．The writer"s daughter was very puzzled with compound interest.
5．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．How to Deposit Pennies in "The Bank of Dad"．
B．Welcome to Deposit Money in the Bank.
C．How to Teach Compound Interest to Kids.
D．A Good Relationship between Father and Kid.
