三、3.Reading Comprehension

Part III  Reading Comprehension
Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

1.Wild and farm birds often get a flu virus. Yet they usually are able to carry the virus without getting sick.
  In 1997 six people in Hong Kong died of a different kind of bird flu virus. It is called the h-five-n-one virus. The Hong Kong government quickly ordered the killing of all farm birds there. That stopped the spread of h-five-n-one to people in Hong Kong.
  Yet the virus bad already spread to other parts of Asia. It was found in 16 countries between 2003 and 2006.
  The h-five-n-one virus first appeared in Africa. This raised many concerns about the spread of the disease. Scientists do not know exactly how bird flu came to Africa. At first, they thought wild birds were to blame. Now, officials with the U. N. Food and Agriculture Organization believe the main cause is trade in farm birds.
  The bird flu virus is found in the waste and liquids of infected birds. The virus spreads when healthy birds or people touch sick birds or nay infected (被感染了的) part of sick birds. Right now, the virus is not spreading among person to person. But the virus could change and start spreading among people. Health officials believe that it is even more possible now that bird flu has spread in Africa, and that is why international organizations are working so hard to stop its spread.
  The best way to stop the spread of bird flu is to kill all the chickens in an area where bird flu has been discovered. More than 145 000 chickens have been killed in Nigeria since bird fin was first found one year ago.

The passage focuses on ______.

A．wild and farm birds
B．a(chǎn) fin virus
C．bird flu
D．infected birds

2.
H-live-n-one virus in the passage means ______.

A．farm birds
B．infected farm animals
C．people died in Hong Kong
D．a(chǎn) different kind of bird flu virus

3.
Some officials believe bird flu spread to Africa mainly due to ______.

A．the trade of farm birds
B．the waste and liquids of infected birds
C．the fact that sortie people touched sick birds or any infected part of sick birds
D．the virus changed and started spreading in some new forms

4.

A．to kill all the birds in an area where bird flu has been discovered

D．to kill all the chickens when bird flu has been discovered

6.When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.
  People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else is not so clear. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing, reading and sewing, become near sighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant (遠(yuǎn)處的) things clearly".
  People who are nearsighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm"s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.
  Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people"s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白內(nèi)障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.
  Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle (角度). To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out
of the other eye. You will find the object"s relation to the background (背景) and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.

We should take good care of our eyes ______.

A．only when we cannot see perfectly
B．only when we can see well
C．even if we can see well
D．only when we realize how important our eyes are

7.
When things far away seem indistinct, one is probably ______.

A．near-sighted
B．far-sighted
C．a(chǎn)stigmatic
D．suffering front cataracts

8.
Having two eyes, instead of one, is particularly useful for ______.

A．seeing at night
B．seeing objects far away
C．looking over a wide area
D．judging distances

9.
People who suffer from astigmatism

A．have a curable disease in their eyes
B．have eyes that are not exactly the right shape
C．have a difficulty that can be corrected by an operation
D．have an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glasses

11.Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something.
  His purpose is settled and decided. He knows what he wants and he just finds it and buys it, but cares little about the price. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it, the salesman quickly takes it out, and the business of trying it on follows at once. If all is well, the deal(買賣) can be and is often completed in less than five minutes, with hard any chat and to everyone"s satisfaction.
  For a man, small problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman tries to sell the customer something else—he offers the nearest he can to the thing asked for. He would say, "I know this jacket is not the style. you want, Sir, but would you like to try it on for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned." Few men have patience (耐心 ) with this treatment, and the usual answer is, "This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on."
  Now how docs a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect (方面) she does so quite differently. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind about what she wants, and she is only "having a look around". She is always open to what the salesman tells her, even to what her friends tell her. She will try on any number of things. What is most important in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Besides, most women have an excellent sense of value when they boy clothes. The), are always ready for the unexpected bargain (便宜貨). Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one counter to another before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It takes time, but surely it is enjoyable to women shoppers. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

When a man is buying clothes, ______.

A．he buys cheap things and does not care about the quality
B．he chooses things that others recommend
C．he does not mind how much he has to pay for the right things
D．he buys good quality things, so long as they are not too expensive

12.

A．They welcome suggestions from anyone.
B．They rarely consider buying cheap clothes.
C．They often buy things without giving the matter proper thought.
D．They listen to advice but never take it.

13.
In most cases women shoppers arc supposed to ______.

A．waste money on goods of poor quality
B．buy only the best clothes
C．be much more careful than men
D．think of the price of clothes and nothing else

14.
What is the most obvious difference between men and women shoppers?

A．The fact that men do not try clothes on in a shop.
B．Women bargain (討價(jià)還價(jià)) for their clothes, but men do not.
C．Women stand in a shop, but men sit down.
D．The time they take to buy clothes.

21.Hollywood (好萊塢) is a suburb of the city of Los Angeles (洛杉磯) in California. Until 1908 it was no more than a quiet village on the northern side of the city, but in that year William Selig, one of the first people to make films, set up a film-producing workshop (車間) in Los Angeles. By 1911 , David and William Horsely had set up another one in Hollywood, and at about the same time oil was discovered in the neighborhood. Thus Hollywood quickly became a big district given over to the film industry and to oil wells
  The early makers of films found Hollywood a good place for their work because of its clear, sunny, rain-free weather, which allowed pictures to be taken all the year round. Also, it was known that every kind of scene needed for films, whether town, country, sea, desert or snow-capped mountains, could be found within the area of California. Today, when most films can be "shot" (拍攝) under cover by man made lighting, these advantages (優(yōu)點(diǎn)) are not so important.
  In spite of a drop in its importance, Hollywood remains a center of film production although now making more films for television than for the cinema.
