三、阅读理解。（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
A
The ld idea that child prdigies (神童) “burn themselves” r “vertax their brains” in the early years, therefre, suffer frm failure and (at wrst) mental illness is just a myth. As a matter f fact, the utstanding thing that happens t bright children is that they are very likely t grw int bright adults.
T find this ut, 1,500 gifted persns were fllwed up t their thirty-fifth years with these results:
On adult intelligence tests, they scred as high as they did as children. They were, as a grup, in gd health, physically and mentally. Eighty-fur percent f their grup were married and seemed cntent with their life.
Abut 70 percent had graduated frm clleges, thugh nly 30 percent had graduated with hnrs. A few had even flunked ut (退学), but nearly half f these had returned t graduate.
Of the men, 80 percent were in ne f the prfessins r in business, managerial r semiprfessinal jbs. The wmen wh had remained single had ffices, business, r prfessinal ccupatins.
The grup had published 90 bks and 1,500 articles in scientific, schlarly, and literary magazines and had cllected mre than 100 patents.
In a material way they didn’t d badly either. Average incme was cnsiderably higher amng the gifted peple, especially the men, than fr the cuntry as a whle, despite their cmparative yuth when last surveyed.
In fact, far frm being strange, maladjusted (难以适应) peple lcked in an ivry twer, mst f the gifted were turning their early prmises int practical reality.

A. that gifted adults can be as intelligent as when they were yung
B. that bright children are unlikely t be physically and mentally healthy
C. that gifted children are mst likely t becme bright grwn-ups
D. that when the bright children grw up, they becme rdinary

B. half f the gifted fllwed up graduated frm clleges
C. each f the talented published at least ne article
D. successful men gt higher incme than successful wmen

C. The gifted men gt full marks n intelligence tests.

Befre a new type f airplane ges int service, every part f it is tested again and again. But there are tw tests that are mre imprtant than all the thers.
The first is called the “tank test”. A mdern airplane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped int the plane s that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure (结构) f the plane has t be very strng fr this reasn. When the plane is filled with air, the air presses against the skin f the plane inside. The pressure (压力) n a small windw is like a huge ft that is trying t get ut. If a small part f the plane were t fail, the plane wuld explde in the sky. T test the structure f the plane, the plane is lwered int a huge tank r cntainer f water. Then it is filled with air. The pressure inside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is high up in the air. Finally, there is an explsin. This des nt cause s much damage inside the water tank as it wuld anywhere else. Engineers can discver which part f the plane has brken. Then that part is made strnger.
The mst dangerus test happens when the new plane is ging thrugh test flights in the air. The test pilt must find ut exactly what happens when the engines (发动机) are all shut ff at nce. The plane begins t fall like a stne. It is the pilt’s jb t find ut hw he can get cntrl f the plane again. These tw tests are examples f hw planes are made safe befre they ever carry passengers.
45. By ding the “tank test”, the engineers can find ut ___________.
A. the pressure inside and utside the plane
B. the strength f the plane structure
C. the amunt f air in the plane

A. The engines may be damaged.
B. The pilt may lse cntrl f the plane.
C. The plane may explde in the air.
D. T much air may get int the plane.

Perhaps the mst famus thery, the study f bdy mvement, was suggested by Prfessr Ray Birdwhistell. He believes that physical appearance is ften culturally prgrammed. In ther wrds, we learn ur lks—we are nt brn with them. A baby has generally infrmed face features. A baby, accrding t Birdwhistell, learns where t set the eyebrws by lking at thse arund-family and friends. This helps explain why the peple f sme areas f the United States lk s much alike, new Englanders r Sutherners have certain cmmn face features that cannt be explained by genetics (遗传学). The exact shape f the muth is nt set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final muth shape is nt frmed until well after new teeth are set. Fr many, this can be well int grwn-ups. A husband and wife tgether fr a lng time ften cme t lk alike. We learn ur lks frm thse arund us. This is perhaps why in a single cuntry area where peple smile mre than thse in ther areas. In the United States, fr example, the Suth is the part f the cuntry where the peple smile mst frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part f New Yrk State still less. Many sutherners find cities such as New Yrk cld and unfriendly, partly because peple n Madisn Avenue smile less than peple n Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Gergia. Peple in largely ppulated areas als smile and greet each ther in public less than peple in small twns d.

部分试题解析：
21题 根据前两个关键词，再比较选项，这时空气应该是静止的(C)。
22题 线索为quarrelsme（可根据词根quarrel猜测词义）, 说明这时人们的脾气都长了(D. rise指上涨)，导致气氛有点吵吵闹闹的。
23题 根据whispered, laughed可排除A、D。他们并没关注别人，所以B也不对，下文的in ne’s best clthes可证实此判断。
24题 参照44题的解释。
25题 本句较长，攻破长句的办法是确定主要框架：they std, picked… and stepped… t place…; 这样就可看出40空拿起的东西后来放在水中了，所以应该选桌子。
26题 如果选A、C或D，那对夫妇就没离开原来坐的位置。所以只有表示离开的ff正确。27题 前面放了桌子，要坐下还需要椅子，所以走回来拿，选back。
28题 从男人自己也坐下了可看出这里是让the lady坐在水中，所以选seated。led 指带领，但是the lady已经站在水边了。
29题 注意挖空出现在段落衔接位置，通常和上段相关。上文中还留着waiting fr 39 , 这里出现的应该是和等待相关的，后文这人拿了酒来，所以可断定44填waiter. 此时也可断定39为service.
30-33 空在同一个长句中。不过确定了waiter就可想到是为客人服务，摆好（set）桌子、听客人点菜（rder） 人们之前只 cheer了一次，之后还有，所以不是熟悉的，或者最后的，也不可能是焦虑的，所以选lud。有his，所以不选turists, assistants, fellws指伙伴，服务生在工作应该没几个伙伴在场，所以应该选众多的custmers 。
34题 第一次入水时他犹豫了，但这次他没犹豫，所以这里是再次(C)。
35题 拿来的酒是客人点的所以选serve：上酒。
36题 上句那对夫妇对大家祝酒，所以其他人在回应 （replied）。
37题 其他人也加入到水中用餐的行列，所以选jined in。
38题 联系并列的上一句和上面的have lunch in the water，可知通常不会在水里上菜，所以C对。
39-40题 联系前面发议论的两句可知不符合常规，所以54选跳出(D)常规。更好地享受生活，55选生活，因为smetimes体现出是从这次经历推及平常生活。
（A篇）此文的结构比较清晰，第1段提出观点，The ld idea that …is just a myth. As a matter f fact, the utstanding thing that happens t bright children is that they are very likely t grw int bright adults.虽然第一句很长，而且有难词myth，但如果按照这里提供的方法，注意最基本的主句，就不影响理解，尤其是后面的as a matter f fact突出了事实应该是怎样，才是关键内容，前面一句即使不懂都没有关系。
从行文逻辑考虑，这一段用正反两方面的话表明作者的观点，以下就应当用事实论证。果不其然，从2段始至7段止，作者从几个方面介绍了这些天资聪颖的孩子们所取得的骄人成绩。
最后一段做总结，呼应第一段的观点。In fact, far frm being …, mst f the gifted were turning their early prmises int practical reality.
第41题 考查文章的主旨大意，对议论文来说，就是作者反复论证的观点，所以答案是C。B、D明显和第一段的观点相反，易排除。相对而言，误选A的学生较多，究其原因在于没有分清文章中的事实和观点。
第42题 这种提问方式可涵盖全文也可涉及细节；本题主要是细节，并需要简单的概括推理，答案是A。调查的人中大学毕业率是70%，所以B错。文章只给出了出版文章的总数，但没说明该群体具体出版文章数量的比例，所以C也错。D乍一看很对，但本文谈的主题是gifted peple，不是successful peple，所以是偷换概念，也不对。
第43题 这是一道细节题。根据原文84 percent f their grup were married and seemed cntent with their life.可确定答案为D，同时排除B。A明显有悖于文章的观点，所以错。C选项中说的满分也不符合原文。
第44题 本题考查对难句的理解。此句看似简单，划线部分的每一个词都为考生所熟知，但是这里prmise指(成功的)希望，而作为动词的prmise指承诺或（某物）有可能…。遇到意思不太明确的词或句时，一定要注意根据主旨大意，上下文来确定，因为考查点一定是重要的内容。所以即使不太明白意思这句，也可以从结构判断，既然它是总结，对首段观点做呼应，它和首段第二句意思的肯定接近。所以为D，神童像人们期望的那样长大也有所作为。
（B篇）第一段是总述，介绍说明的对象：对新飞机的最重要的两个测试。下面分成两部分分别说明两种测试。第一种测试介绍了其目的、步骤、结果。第二种是最危险的测试；并介绍危险在哪里。最后一句总结测试的意义。
第45题 本题考查细节理解：第一种测试的目的。原文的：The metal structure (结构) f the plane has t be very strng fr this reasn. 后文又提到如果飞机的金属结构承受不了空中的气压就会爆炸，所以B正确。
第46题 本题同样是考查寻读具体信息的能力：第一种测试下飞机会出现的情况，也就是对文章分析部分中的第一种测试的结果。原文中的Finally, there is an explsin. 和Engineers can discver which part f the plane has brken. Then that part is made strnger.这两句可以判断出A正确。本题B选项的迷惑性很强。其错误的原因是题干问的是在tank test测试下的飞机会怎样，而不是测试之后(after the “tank test”)。
第47题 本题考查细节理解：第二种测试的危险之处。从最后一段可以看出这种测试中飞机的引擎要被关掉，而飞机驾驶员必须在下落的过程中找到能再次发动飞机的办法，所以B正确。A错，因为文章没提到引擎被损坏；C错在, 飞机在下落时有可能跌落到地上爆炸，但不会在空中爆炸，D则原文根本没有提。
第48题 本题考查主旨。从文章的分析可以看出文章要讲的是对飞机进行的两种重要测试。所以A对。B很容易误选，因为的确危险性很大，但这并非文章的中心。C选项指安全飞行的重要性，所以也不对。D选项除了测试还说了飞机的制造所以错.
（C篇）本篇开头采用了新闻常见的手法“设悬念”，以吸引读者。这个小悬念就是：Cara Lang上周四没去上学，而且不仅她，美国还有上百万的女孩在每年的这天都去“上班”。之后为你揭晓原因，这一天是Take Our Daughters t Wrk Day。通常悬念的答案就是文章的主题或者中心。
然后文章具体讲了谁能享受这个日子，都具体做什么，为什么会出现这样一个日子。之后再回到Cara这个典型的例子，更具体地体现出这个日子对女孩子带来什么样的影响。这样就可总结出文章的中心是Take Our Daughters t Wrk Day。 用具体的人物做例子来介绍事件是新闻常见的手法，从而使新闻事件有人情味、更具体、更具趣味性。这样的新闻容易被误认为记叙文，但和记叙文不同的是，新闻强调事实性、客观性。
第49题 细节题。原文是Cara’s father is a film directr。
第50题 本题涵盖了对细节和主旨的考查，所以还要求一定的概括与推断。像原文中设此日子的目的The Ms. Fundatin wanted girls t find ut abut many different kinds f jbs. 说明了C正确。她们在这天只是体会并不会得到工作。
第51题 这天的意义在于女孩子可接触到很多不同的工作，本题就是考查这点的理解。答案为B，因为她在studi里只是看别人工作。
第52题 选择合适的标题，其实就是考查主旨，很容易就可以确定是B。而Cara Lang是作为参与者的例子。
（D篇）本文主要讲述了19岁瑞典男孩 Jnathan 凭借自己出色的电脑技术帮助美国联邦调查局寻找网络犯罪分子。
第53题 主旨题。根据 …he helps the US Federal Bureau f Investigatin(FBI) find ut the wrld’s mst wanted cyber criminals 可确定答案（A）。
第54题 细节题。根据 Jnathan first made headlines when he and anther Swede, Fredrik Bjerck, fund ut the maker f the “Melissa” virus (病毒) in March 1999 可推测出答案（B）。
第55题 推断题。根据 He said his wrk n the “Melissa” virus, which tk three weeks t slve, was a big help in finding the suspect s quickly 可以看出，以前积累的经验对他以后的工作大有帮助，故B是最佳答案。
第56题 细节题。根据 Althugh he wrks with the FBI nw, his family insists he’s just “a regular kid” 可以看出来，Jnathan 是一个正常的孩子，但他却做出了一些不寻常的事情。正确答案D。
（E篇）本文介绍了人的面目不是生来注定，而是后天习得的理论。
第57题 细节题。根据文章第2句physical appearance is ften culturally prgrammed可推知此题答案为B。
第58题 细节题。根据文章中间的句子the final muth shape is nt frmed until well after new teeth are set可推知此题答案为 C。
第59题 推断题。根据文章末尾部分对各个地方人笑的多少的归纳可推知此题答案为A。
第60题 推断题。根据文章的内容与选项的比较，发现选项A、B、C与文章内容毫无关系，从而可推知此题答案为D。
