一、阅读理解（共4小题）
1.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。
A
People believe that climbing can do good to health．Where can you learn the skills of climbing then? If you think that you have to go to the mountains to learn how to climb, you’re wrong．Many Americans are learning to climb in city gyms (体育馆)．Here, people are learning on special climbing walls．The climbing wall goes straight up and has small holding places for hands and feet．
How do people climb the wall? To climb, you need special shoes and a harness (保护带) around your chest to hold you．There are ropes (绳索) tied to your harness．The ropes hold you in place so that you don’t fall．A beginner’s wall is usually about 15 feet high, and you climb straight up．There are small pieces of metal that stick out for you to stand on and hold on to．Sometimes it’s easy to see the next piece of metal．Sometimes, it’s not．The most difficult part is to control your fear．It’s normal for humans to be afraid of falling, so it’s difficult not to feel fear．But when you move away from the wall, the harness and the ropes hold you, and you begin to feel safe．You move slowly until you reach the top．
Climbing attracts people because it’s good exercise for almost everyone．You use your whole body, especially your arms and legs．This sport gives your body a complete workout．When you climb, both your mind and your body can become stronger．
1．What can we infer from the passage? ________
A．It is always easy to see holding places in climbing．
B．It is impossible to build up one’s body by climbing．
C．People can only learn the skill of climbing outdoors．
D．People are fairly interested in climbing nowadays．
2．The most difficult thing to do in wall climbing is _______．

4．Why does the author write this passage_______?

3.C In the United States, 30 percent of the people have a “weight problem”．To many people the cause is obvious (明显的): they eat too much．But scientific evidence (证据) does little to support this idea．Going back to America of 1910, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food．In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn’t watch television．
Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people don’t eat more on average than thinner people．A 1979 study of 3,545 London office workers showed that fat people eat less than slim (苗条的) people．
Studies also show that slim people are more active than fat people．A study by a research group at Stanford University found the following interesting facts:
The more the man ran, the greater loss of the body fat．
The more they ran, the greater increase in food intake．
Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat．
1．Nowadays many Americans have the problem that ______．
A．they are too slim
B．they work too hard
C．they are too fat
D．they lose too much body fat
2．According to the passage, how many people in 900 Americans have a “weight problem”?
A．150．
B．300．
C．600．
D．270．
3．Is there any scientific evidence to support the idea that eating too much is the cause of a “weight problem”?
A．Yes, there is plenty of evidence．
B．Of course, there is some evidence to support this．
C．There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this．
D．We are not sure．
4．The Americans in 1910 ________．
A．ate more food and had more physical activities
B．ate less food but had more physical activities
C．ate less food and had less physical activities
D．had more problems
4.D The values of artistic works, according to cultural relativism, are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions．Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries．
History has witnessed the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world．It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries．Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art．They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future．
In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because “the general principles of taste are uniform(不变的) in human nature,” the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent．He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years．Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries．
Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art．For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction．The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before．Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist．
1．In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that _____．
A．history gives art works special appeal to set them apart
B．great works of art can go beyond national boundaries
C．popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great arts
D．great artists are skilled at combining various cultures
2．According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because_____．
A．they are results of scientific study
B．they establish some general principles of art
C．they appeal to unchanging features of human nature
D．they are created by the world’s greatest artists
3．Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?
A．Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?
B．Are Popular Arts Permanent?
C．Is Human Nature Uniform?
D．Are Artistic Values Universal?

Building Trust in a Relationship Again
Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences, 1 ．Trust is a risk．But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake．
Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of betrayal．Whether we’ve been stolen from, lied to, misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust．Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore, 2 ．It’s understandable, but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there．
● 3 having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being．
● 4 If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance．But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”．At some point in all of our lives, we’ll have our trust tested or violated．
● You didn’t lose “everything”．Once trust is lost, what is left? Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life．5Instead, it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness．
A．Thinking positively doesn’t necessarily lead to your turning a blind eye to things happening to you．
B．They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again．
C．Remember that you can expect the best in return．
D．We may get confident in ourselves．
E．This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships．
F．Learn to really trust yourself．
G．Don’t think of yourself as the hurt person．

Her efforts were not in vain as they continue to help others, not only physically, but 19 and emotionally as well．At the gathering to celebrate her life, “A Celebration of Hope” on January 16, 2011, the 20 was made that they had indeed received donations totaling more than one million dollars．Her wish had been granted!
