began very slowly to understand．“ I guess we all have to 45 something,” mother said quietly．I could 46 her pain and the tension of 47 the strong feeling that were interrupted

my shoulder and sobbed．I held her 50 and didn’t try to talk．I knew I was doing what I should,

第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A
Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made．Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects．Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages．I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic．
Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary．I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys．Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door．But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects．
I am a naturalist, not a scientist．I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm had led me into varied investigations．I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil reading about other people’s observations and discoveries．Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind．Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together．This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research．
But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack．A scientist, up to a certain point, can be made．A naturalist is born．If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds．
61．The first paragraph tells us the author_____．
A．was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood
B．lost his hearing when he was a child
C．didn’t like his brothers and sisters
D．was born to a naturalist’s family
62．The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because_____．
A．he didn’t live very long with them
B．the family was extremely very large
C．he was too young when he lived with them
D．he was fully occupied with observing nature
63．It can be inferred from the passage that the author was_____．
A．a scientist as well as a naturalist B．a naturalist but not a scientist
C．no more than a born naturalist D．first of all a scientist
64．The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he_____．
A．has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic
B．lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist
C．just reads about other people’s observations and discoveries
D．comes up with solutions in a most natural way
B

Students
There are 4,600 undergraduates(本科生)．There are also 1,900 graduate students, but Princeton is unusual among some universities in having a student body made up largely of undergraduates．

If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame, because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion．They are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores．Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion．When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear．
Changing fashion is nothing more than the intentional creation of waste．Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn．Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have．Skirts are lengthened or shortened; necklines are lowered or raised, and so on．
No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society．Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability(耐用) ．They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right．There can hardly be a man who hasn’t sometimes in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes．
When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious．Does the constantly changing fashion of women’s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers．Do their unchanged styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide．
69．Designers and big stores always make money_____．
A．by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry
B．because they are capable of predicting the new fashion
C．by constantly changing the fashion in women’s clothing
D．because they always improve the quality of women’s clothing
70．To the writer, the fact that women change their old-fashioned dress is seen as_____．
A．a quality of instability B．a waste of time and money
C．an expression of taste D．an expression of creativity
71．The writer would be less critical if fashion designers placed more stress on the_____．
A．cost B．appearance C．comfort D．suitability
72．By saying “ the conclusions to be drawn are obvious”, the writer means that_____．
A．women’s changeableness in their choice of clothing was often laughed at
B．women are better able to put up with discomfort
C．men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers
D．men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion
D
Do you want to live another 100 years or more? Some experts say that scientific advances will
one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span．
“ I think we are knocking at the door of immortality (永生),” said Michael Zey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future．“ I think by 2075 we will see it and that’s a conservative estimate．”
At the conference in San Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology(納米技術) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what has been possible in the past．“ There is a great push so that people can live from 120 to 180 years,” he said．“ Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years．”
However, many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last about 120 years．Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death．
Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live．“ It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life?” said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Center．“ At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all．”
73．By saying “ we are knocking at the door immortality”, Michael Zey means_____．
A．they believe that there is no limit of living
B．they are sure to find the truth about long living
C．they have got some ideas about living forever
D．they are able to make people live past the present life span
74．Donald Louria’s attitude toward long living is that_____．
A．people can live from 120 to 180
B．it is still doubtful how long humans can live
C．the human body is designed to last about 120 years
D．it is possible for humans to live longer in the future
75．The underlined “ it” (Para．4) refers to_____．
A．a great push
B．the idea of living beyond the present life span
C．the idea of living from 200 to 300
D．the conservative estimate
76．What would be the best title for this text?
A．Living longer or not
B．Science, technology and long living
C．No limit for human life
D．Healthy lifestyle and long living

I am a good mother to three children．I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent．
I no longer consider myself the center of the universe．I show up．I listen．I try to laugh．I am a good friend to my husband．I have tried to make marriage vows mean what they say．I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me．Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today．
So here’s what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life．A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger pay-check…．
Get a life in which you are not alone．Find people you love, and who love you．And remember that love is not leisure, it is work．Pick up the phone．Send an e-mail．Write a letter．And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted．
It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes．It is so easy to exist instead of to live．I learned to live many years ago．Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all．And what I learned from it is what , today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all．
I learned to love the journey, not the destination．I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally．And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned．
By telling them this: Read in the backyard with the sun on your face．Learn to be happy．And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived．
77．It can be inferred from the passage that_____．
A．the author is a success in personal life
B．the author didn’t try her best to work well
C．the author spent all her time caring for her children
D．the author likes travelling very much
78．How did the author form her view of life?
A．Through social experience． B．By learning from her friends．
C．Through an unfortunate experience D．From her children and husband．
79．By the underlined sentence “ It is so easy to exist instead of to live” in the fifth paragraph, the author really means that people tend to_____．
A．make a living rather than live a real life
B．work rather than enjoy life
C．waste a lot in life
D．forget the most important lessons in life
80．What’s the author’s attitude towards work?
A．Do it well to serve others．
B．Earn enough money to make life better．
C．Try your best to get higher position and pay．
D．Don’t let it affect your real life．

One possible version:
Dear Mr．Wang,
Last Sunday, I went to do some reading in your library．Over the time I was there, I found something unpleasant．Therefore, I’d like to voice my opinions, which, I hope, would be useful for you to create a more comfortable place for readers．
First, there are few new and practical books on the shelves, and most books are not popular today．Second, some books are not sorted in proper order, making it difficult for readers to find what they want quickly．Third, the assistants didn’t offer good services．Instead, they were always chatting．In addition, poor light in the reading room is bad for eyes．
So, for the sake of readers, I suggest that you change all those mentioned as soon as possible．
Yours,
Ai Xuexi
