第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,共40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
We cannot feel speed. But our senses let us know that we are moving. We see things moving. We see things moving past us and feel that we are being shaken.
We can feel acceleration, an increase in speed. But we notice it for only a short time. For instance, we feel it during the takeoff run of an airliner.
We feel the plane’s acceleration because our bodies do not gain speed as fast as the plane does. It seems that something is pushing us back against the seat. Actually, our bodies are trying to stay in the same place, while the plane is carrying us forward.
Soon the plane reaches a steady speed. Then, because there is no longer any change in speed, the feeling of forward motion stops.
56. We can feel that we are moving by _____.
A. watching things move past     B. feeling the speed
C. feeling ourselves being shaken  D. both A and C
57. In the second paragraph, the underlined word “ acceleration” means _____.
A. an increase in speed     B. a steady speed
C. any kind of movement   D. the movement of a plane
58. During the takeoff of a plane, we feel that we are being _____.
A. thrown forward        B. pushed back against the seat
C. lifted out of the seat     D. pushed down into the seat
59. We feel the plane’s acceleration because our bodies gain speed _____.
A. just as fast as the plane      B. faster than the plane
C. more slowly than the plane   D. before the plane
60. This feeling stops when _____.

C. there is no longer a change in speed   D. we begin to feel speed

Children are keen Internet shoppers with more than half having bought something online, research has shown.
Around 53 percent of children aged between 7 and 16 said they had bought something over the Internet, 10 percent more than in 2004, according to Halifax.
Boys were more likely to be Internet shoppers than girls, with 60 percent of boys saying they had bought items online, compared with just 46 percent of girls.
Unsurprisingly, older children were more likely to use the Internet to shop than younger ones, with nearly three quarters of 12-16-year olds shopping online, compared to just 29 percent of 7-to-11-year olds who said they had bought something.
More than half of children preferred buying things over the Internet to buying them on the high street, while 61 percent of those who had bought things online said it was easier to buy certain items over the Internet than in shops.
However, boys were more likely to always prefer buying things online, while girls were more likely to still like the actual high street shopping experience.
The most common items for young people to buy over the Internet were CDs, tapes and computer games and equipment. Some children had bought DVDs and videos, while some had bought gifts.
Children spent most money on computer games and equipment, with 13 percent saying they spent more than $20 online on these items a year, followed by 12 percent who spent more than $20 a year on mobile phones and 11 percent who spent the same amounts on clothes.
Cheryl Millington, head of savings at Halifax, said, “ We are not only seeing the emergence of a generation of young consumers, but also keen cyber-consumers. While children often lead the way in Internet use within the family home, parents have an important role to play in ensuring they stay safe while online.”
73. From the passage, which of the following is NOT correct?
A. Children are keen on internet shopping          
B. Boys are more likely to buy things over the Internet than girls
C. Older children want to buy things in actual streets             
D. Children like to buy some fashionable items over the Internet
74. We can infer from the last paragraph that ________
A. Cheryl Millington is against children’s online shopping         
B. parents should play an active role in ensuring their children’s safety
C. Cheryl Millington holds a conservative (保守的) view about children’s online shopping             
D. children will become the main composition of online shopping
75. Which of the following can best show the organization of the text?
a. the number of children’s online shopping      b. items bought over the Internet
c. money spent on online shopping             d. safety problems
A. a, b, c, d       B. a, d, c, b      C. a, c, d, b       D. d, a, c, b

Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children.

The best children"s books are  40   very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 41  who hears the story and the adult who   42    it. Unfortunately, there are in fact  43   books like this,  44   the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not   45   to solve.
This may be why many of books regarded as  46   of children"s literature were in fact written for   47 . “Alice"s Adventure in Wonderland” is perhaps the most   48   of this.
Children, left for themselves, often 49  the worst possible interest in literature. Just  leave a child in bookshop or  50 and he will more  willingly choose the books 51 in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children"s comics (连环画), full of the stories and jokes to which both teachers and right-thinking parents  52  .
Perhaps we parents should stop trying to persuade children into   53   our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so   54  that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the  55  books. So I suppose we"ll just have to compromise(妥协) over that bedtime story.
