第四部分：阅读理解（共11小题，每题2分，满分22分）
请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D中，选出最佳选项。
A．
“Iris scan (虹膜扫描) ， please,” the bank’s cmputer vice tells yu . Yu step up and the cmputer reads yur eye , cmparing it t the stred file it has f yur iris. The images had better match—therwise yu wn’t be able t get yur mney.
Iris scanning and ther technlgies , such as fingerprint and vice scanning , have appeared in many science fictin mvies in the past. Tday , these advanced technlgies are part f the real wrld. They are cmmn at wrk, the bank, the airprt, and yur lcal prisn. The iris scan, fingerprint scan, and vice scan are all examples f bimetrics( 生物测定学) a fast develping area f autmatic persnal identificatin technlgy . Basically , bimetrics uses varius ways t verify a persns identity , based n the individual’s unique characteristics ,including fingerprints , vices, irises, bdy heat patterns, facial images, handprints , signatures and s n.
Bimetrics identificatin systems have a number f advantages ver passwrd systems. The primary advantage is that an individual has t be physically present in rder t be identified. Anther imprtant advantage is that there are n passwrds t remember , frget, lse r steal.
The vice scan is the simplest and mst affrdable frm f bimetrics . It nly requires a cmputer, a micrphne and the crrect sftware. The sftware recrds a subject’s vice and then cmpares it t a stred vice sample fr identificatin purpses.
Fr additinal safety, fingerprint and handprint scans can als be emplyed . Fingerprint scans take the image f a fingerprint and cmpare it t a stred file f prints. Handprint scans identify the unique features f a hand.
Iris scans currently give the highest level f accuracy amng all the available bimetrics systems. Anther technlgy , full facial scans , is currently in use at brder crssings and airprts. Facial scanning equipment can actually track and identify mving faces within a crwd.
The ptential f bimetrics is exciting and encuraging . With cntinued develpment , testing , and applicatin , current technlgies will becme even mre effective in the future. Sn , the days f passwrd and car keys will be gne . Just dn’t leave hme withut yur fingerprints!
51. The first paragraph serves as a(n) __________.
A. example B. explanatin C. cmment D. cnclusin
52. The underlined wrd “verify” in Paragraph 2 prbably means “_____”.
A. prtect B. cnfirm C. develp D. change
53. Which is the mst accurate frm f bimetrics?
A. The vice scan B. The fingerprint scan C. The iris scan D. The facial scan
54. What is the authr’s attitude twards the future f bimetrics?
A. He is uncertain abut it . B. He feels dubtful abut it .
C. He is wrried abut it . D. He feels hpeful abut it .
B.
The Independent Prject at the Mnument Muntain Reginal High Schl in Great Barringtn, Massachusetts, is attracting huge interest in the educatin field. The prgram is a new cncept that has develped a wide variety f students’ abilities and excited their interest in educatin and self-directed learning. They are a grup f students that , instead f being educated thrugh the nrmal schl curses, have created their wn subjects and prject-based interactive learning.
The students are almst cmpletely independent. They chse a gal that they want t accmplish and wrk n fr the whle year. These gals have included sme impressive attempts such as writing a nvel, writing a play , learning the pian and mre. Alng with these larger attempts , the students meet every day t ask questins abut ther subjects like natural sciences , scial sciences, etc. Althugh mst f them say that they dn’t like math, they did eventually develp an interest in math thrugh this independent learning technique.
The educatin prgram, which has attracted a huge variety f students, allws the students t learn and develp research skills and questining techniques and allws them t truly be interested in the subjects they are diving int . They als teach each ther what they have learned , which allws them t develp different way f presenting and gathering material that they have researched.
I wish that I culd have participated in such a prject during my high schl career, like writing a nvel. I am currently studying English as well as educatin t pursue a teaching degree. I wuld lve t adapt independent driven prjects int a classrm in the future.
This prject als raises sme crucial questins. D we need t rethink the structure f the educatin system itself? Are t many students being simply fed thrugh a cnveyr belt(传送带) that we blindly see as wrking tward their educatin? I think that the educatin system needs sme imprvements , and different learning styles need t be addressed immediately.
Individual differences in learning are huge keys t the functining f a classrm. This prject takes the idea t a whle new level. This is an extremely imprtant event in the develpment f the American educatin system and I think everyne needs t keep an eye ut fr mre prgrams like this.
55. What can we learn abut the Independent Prject？
A．There is little invlvement frm teachers.
B. Nrmal schl curses are als available.
C. The students meet every week t discuss their curses.
D. It was designed t imprve the students’ interest in math.
56. By saying “Are t many students --- tward their educatin?” the authr seems t imply that ________.
A. teachers are really imprtant fr students.
B. different learning styles shuld be encuraged.
C. the prject wrks like a cnveyr belt f infrmatin.
D. knwledge can be better cnveyed in smaller classes
57. What is the authr’s attitude twards the Independent Prject?
A. Apprving B. Cautius C. Dubtful D. Objective
58. What is the passage mainly abut ?
A. The benefits f interactive learning B. Individual differences in learning.
C. A grup f independent students. D. An unusual educatin prgram.
C.
Wrking hard cmes naturally t me. The medical billing cmpany I wrk fr hired me as a claims researcher and in ne year prmted me t head f the Nrtheast Regin Fllw-Up Team.
“When are yu ging t finish?” My husband Je said as he climbed int bed. “In a few minutes,” I replied. My track recrd ffered Je little reasn t believe me. Finishing was always just a mment r tw away. Then after I knew he was sund asleep, I’d gather my paperwrk and mve t the kitchen table and wrk fr a few mre hurs.
Smewhere alng the way , I fund my enthusiasm fr living was replaced with hard bring wrk that rbbed me f bth peace and pleasure. As the cmpany expanded, my respnsibility grew heavier every day.
Resigning wuld end the madness and Je encuraged me t d s daily “Just d it, Annie. Quit . Yu’re heading fr a break dwn.”
One day an email appeared n my cmputer screen. When I pened it the wrds “Administrative assistant fr senir vice president” caught my eye .N , I thught . They’d think I was crazy . Wh in their right mind wuld stp back t a secretarial psitin frm a management psitin?
At hme that evening my interest in the jb persisted. I had ten years f experience as an executive secretary lng befre I ever arrived at the cmpany.
The next mrning I tld my bss I intended t apply fr the jb. “Yu’re in fr a huge salary cut, and yu’ll lse yur bnus,” he said, “Yu’re a leader, Annmarie, nt a fllwer. Hw is it that yu think this makes any kind f sense? Yu’re crazy.”
“Nt yet,” I said “But if I stay in this psitin much lnger , I’m pretty sure I’ll end up that way.”
Admittedly the manager f human resurces was shcked t, but frm a budgetary standpint it’s hard t say n t smene wh’s asking fr a salary cut and a decrease in benefits. That’s pretty much a nvelty(新鲜事) yu dn’t run int every day.
I brught t the table a skill set, which included a wrking knwledge f every department in the peratins areas f the cmpany . Thugh I negtiated t a salary I felt was reasnable fr what I was ffering , the lst bnus and salary cut brught me t a twenty percent decrease in my incme.
I clsed the dr t my ffice that last day with very few regrets abut leaving my management psitin. By the end f my first day in the new psitin I knew I had made the right decisin.
N ffice, staff, salary , r bnus check can ever replace this new feeling f waking up every mrning and actually wanting t g t wrk. The tasks I perfrm aid ne vice president in particular. When I leave at the end f the day, I take nthing with me but my desire t cme back tmrrw knwing that I am respected and appreciated.
My husband always tells me I can’t put a price n peace f mind, but divrce attrneys（律师） are plenty expensive. It lks like my path t peace turned up nne t sn!
59. What can we infer frm Paragraph 2?
A. The authr used t stay up B. The authr used t be a liar.
C. The authr liked wrking crazilyD. The authr had truble finishing
60. The authr decided t change her jb , mainly because she _________.
A. caught a disease B. wanted t live peacefully
C. was nt qualified fr the jb D. was afraid t break up with Je
61. T the manager f human resurces , the authr’s changing her jb was really ____.
A. ften seen B. bad news C. t his taste D. against his will
第五部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题纸相应题号的横线上。
Self-imprvement and self-change is nt smething that cmes naturally t many peple . There are many different reasns fr peple t avid self-imprvement .
One f the mst cmmn things that stp ur self-imprvement is that we have t much pride. This is because the wrd self-imprvement ften implies that there are areas f ur life that we aren’t fully satisfied r happy with . S, t sme extent, self-imprvement means that we have t admit that we can d better than ur current situatin even if this temprarily hurts ur eg(自我) . Yu can vercme this by recgnizing that n ne is perfect, and everyne can imprve themselves in different ways. It’s nly the persn that desn’t pursue self-imprvement wh really has the brken eg in the end.
Anther prblem we face when pursuing self-imprvement is that we have a false belief that there will always be tmrrw. Unfrtunately, if we keep fllwing this pattern, then ne day we may wake up and realize ur whle life has passed by, but we never get a chance t d the things that we really want t d. The lessn is nt t wait , but t act nw. Dn’t let time just pass by. Life is very shrt and tmrrw is never a guarantee. Take advantage f every day yu have , and dn’t wait until yu’re n yur deathbed t realize the life yu’ve always wanted t live.
We either expect big and immediate changes in ur life r nthing at all. S when things dn’t magically get better in a shrt perid f time , we quickly lse ur determinatin t make gradual psitive changes. This is a cmmn trap t fall int , because self-imprvement is ften small. We need t wrk at it fr lng perids f time befre we can lk back and see hw big f a difference we’ve made. Instead f searching fr magical slutins t yur life , fcus n small and gradual change. Try t make a bit f prgress each and every day, but realize it’s a lng-term determinatin.
One f the mst cmmn excuses we have is that we are t busy . Yu want t g t the gym and exercise again, but yu just can’t find the time, because yu’re t busy running arund at wrk. Sure, life can be busy , but when yu find yurself “t busy” that’s really a sign that yu need t reevaluate yur pririties. Thse wh think they have n time fr healthy eating will sner r later have t find time fr illness. Ask yurself, ”What’s really imprtant t me?” Then make time fr the things yu value the mst.
