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、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卷上将该项涂黑。
A
Robert Spring, a 19th century forger (伪造者), was so good at his profession that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1838 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he prospered(繁荣) by selling his small but genuine collection of early U.S Autographs (亲笔签名). Discovering his ability at copying handwriting, he began imitating signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin and writing them on the title pages of old books. To lessen the chance of detection, he sent his forgeries to England and Canada for sale and circulation. Forgers have a hard time selling products. A forger can’t approach a respectable buyer but must deal with people who don’t have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways to make their work look real. For example, they buy old books to use the aged paper of the title page, and they can treat paper and ink with chemicals.
In Spring’s time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the Southern states, so Spring invented a respectable young lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General"Stonewall"Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny’s financial problems forced her to sell a GREat number of letters and manuscripts (手稿) belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. All this activity did not prevent Spring from dying in poverty, leaving sharp-eyed experts the difficult task of separating his forgeries from the originals.
56．Why did Spring sell his false autographs in England and Canada?
A．There was a GREater demand there than in America.
B．There was less chance of being detected there.
C．Britain was Spring’s birthplace.
D．The prices were higher in England and Canada.
57．After the Civil War, there was a GREat demand in Britain for ______ .
A．Southern false autographs
B．Southern manuscripts and letters
C．signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin
D．Civil War battle plans
58．According to the passage, forgeries are usually sold to ______ .
A．sharp-eyed experts
B．book dealers
C．persons who aren’t experts
D．owners of old books
59．Who was Miss Fanny Jackson?
A．The only daughter of General"Stonewall"Jackson.
B．A little-known girl who sold her father’s papers to Robert Spring.
C．Robert Spring’s daughter.
D．An imaginary person created by Spring.

Two weeks after the opening ceremony, the Games are over. The last of the three hundred gold medals has been awarded and the flags of the winners have been raised for the last time.
The final event is the closing ceremony. It is a sad occasion because the extreme excitement is over, and it will not happen again for four years. Those who have made friends will have to say goodbye, perhaps for ever. It is also a happy occasion because the competition is over and the athletes can really show their friendship for one another.
The closing ceremony is rather like the opening. But now the Olympic flame goes out and the Olympic flag, with its five rings, is lowered. The person who closes the Games calls upon the youth of the world to meet again in four years’ time. The scoreboard lights up with the name of the city for the next Games and the band starts to play. The celebration starts.
All the athletes try to be at the closing ceremony. They have forgotten all their fears and worries. It does not matter whether they have done well or not. All the teams walk round the stadium together. Everybody in the Village clears up and gets ready to leave. Everyone is hunting for local products. People. Exchange track suits, hats, running vests and so on. There is a last chance to take photographs and get addresses of new friends. Then each team starts its journey home.
60．At the closing ceremony, it is found that ______ .
A．all are called on to meet again in four years’ time

A higher reading rate, with no loss of comprehension, will help you in other subjects as well as in English, and the general principles apply to any language. Naturally, you will not read every book at the same speed. You would expect to read a newspaper, for example, much more rapidly than a physics or economics textbook - but you can raise your average reading speed over the whole range of materials you wish to cover so that the percentage gained will be the same whatever kind of reading you are concerned with.
The reading passages which follow are all of an average level of difficulty for your stage of instruction. They are all about five hundred words long. They are about topics of general interest which do not require a GREat deal of specialized knowledge. Thus they fall between the kind of reading you might find in your textbooks and the much less demanding kind you will find in a newspaper or light novel. If you read this kind of English, with understanding at four hundred words per minute, you might skim (浏览) through a newspaper at perhaps 650 - 700 , while with a difficult textbook you might drop to two hundred or two hundred and fifty.
Perhaps you would like to know what reading speeds are common among native English-speaking university students and how those speeds can be improved. Tests in Minnesota, U.S.A, for example, have shown that students without special training can read English of average difficulty, for example, Tolstoy’s War and Peace in translation, at speeds of between 240 and 250 words per minute with about seventy percent comprehension. Students in Minnesota claim that after twelve half - hour lessons, once a week, the reading speed can be increased, with no loss of comprehension, to around five hundred words per minute.
64．According to the passage, the purpose of effective reading with higher speed is most likely to help you .
A．only in your reading of a physics textbook
B．improve your understanding of an economics textbook
C．not only in your language study but also in other subjects
D．choose the suitable materials to read
65．Which of the following does not describe the types of reading materials mentioned in the
second paragraph?
A．Those beyond one’s reading comprehension
B．Those concerned with common knowledge
C．Those without much demand for specialized knowledge
D．Those with the length of about five hundred words
66．The average speed of untrained native speakers in the University of Minnesota is ______ .
A．about 300 words per minute
B．about 245 words per minute
C．about 650 - 770 words per minute
D．about 500 words per minute
67．According to the passage, how fast can you expect to read after you have attended twelve half - hour lessons in the University of Minnesota?
A．You can increase your reading speed by three times
B．No real increase in reading speed can be achieved
C．Yon can increase your reading speed by four times
D．You can double your reading speed.

"13 YEARS AGO I BOUGHT THIS VOLVO
BECAUSE IT WAS ADVERTISED
AS THE 11 YEARS CAR"
13 years ago, William Stiles, an expert in American Indian history, discovered the treasure as you see here∶a 1966 Volvo.
He bought it because ads of the time said Volvos were so tough that they lasted an average of 11 years in Sweden.

Much of it through former Indian countryside. It is held up even better than promised. Driving it like I hated it made me love it.
Expressions of love are not uncommon among Volvo owners. In fact, 9 out of 10 people who have bought new Volvos are happy.
So if you are unhappy with your present car, do what Mr Stiles once did after reading one of our ads. Buy one of our cars.

The Human Genome (基因组) Project, a GREat $ 3 billion, 15 - year task aimed at drawing the genetic map of humans, is now more than 90 percent completed. The scientific and medical communities are very excited about the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging human life. But those communities and policy makers are also careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life.
For the last few years, the genetic advances in the fast developing field of biotechnology (生物技术) have provided material for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of the human genetic code have opened a world of possibilities for human health, as well as for the popular imagination.
While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid proGREss in decoking (解码) human DNA, the leading organization for genetic research in the United States, which began in 1990, is "unlocking the code" of the human body to learn how to defeat fatal diseases. Already, the Human Genome Project has become widely known and praised for finding the genes connected with as yet terrible diseases, and making progress toward separating the genes that show a sign of breast cancer or AIDS.
Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections, and genetic diseases. Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome, as they expect to develop a lot of new drugs for these illnesses.
72．Why did the scientists work so hard at mapping the human genome?
A．Because the human genome can destroy many illnesses.
B．Because the human genome’s completion can help to get rid of many diseases.
C．Because they wanted to be better known than others.
D．Because the Human Genome Project can provide a lot of chances of work.
73．According to the passage, which of the following countries is the most advanced in genetic
research?
A．Japan. B．Germany. C．The United States. D．China.
74．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A．If the genes can be found, scientists can study many new ways to cure illnesses.
B．The United States began genetic research early in the 19th century.
C．Many medical companies show GREat interest in drawing the human genome map.
D．The scientists have made GREat progress in connecting some genes with the cancers.
75．What is mainly talked about in this passage?
A．The GREat human genome
B．The discovery of genes
C．Unlocking the genetic code
D．Genes and scientists
