第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）

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。

One winter evening, a storekeeper was going to close up his shop. Suddenly he saw Seth, a lazy, good – for – nothing fellow grasp a pound of fresh butter and hid it in his hat. No sooner had the storekeeper seen the act than he hit upon exactly the right revenge(报复). He would punish the thief, and satisfy his own appetite for fun.

Seth had his hat on his head, and the butter in his hat. He was anxious to leave. However, the rightful owner of the butter offered him a cup of hot drink, took him by the shoulders and planted him in a seat close to the stove. The grocer filled in the stove as many sticks of wood as he could. Seth already could feel the butter settling down closer to his hair, so he jumped up, declaring that he must go. “Sit down; don’t be in such a hurry,” replied the grocer, pushing him back into the chair again.

Streak after streak of the butter came pouring from under the poor man’s hat. The fun-loving grocer kept on putting wood into the stove. Then, as if surprised, he remarked, “You seem to be sweating as if you were warm! Let me put your hat away for you.”

“No! ” exclaimed poor Seth at last, unable to stand it a moment longer. “ No, I must go; let me out.” A greasy (油腻的) waterfall of butter was now pouring down the poor man’s face and neck, dipping into his clothes, and trickling down his body into his boots. He was bathed in oil from head to toe. Just as Seth rushed out of the door, the grocer said , “ I believe the fun I’ve had out of you is worth the money, so I shan’t charge you for that pound of butter in your hat.”

56．Why did Seth put the butter in his hat?

A．Because he didn’t want to pay for it.

B．Because he just wanted to play a trick on the grocer.

C．Because he wanted to revenge himself on the grocer.

D．Because he had nowhere to put the butter but in the hat.

57．What is not the action that the grocer took as a revenge?

A．The grocer offered Seth a cup of hot drink.

B．The grocer offered to take off Seth’s hat.

C．The grocer overcharged Seth for the butter.

D．The grocer forced Seth to take a seat near the stove.

58．What was the purpose of the grocer’s hospitality(热情好客)？

A．He wanted to be kind to him.

B．He wanted to sell more of his goods.

C．He wanted to make friends with Seth

D．He wanted to take his revenge on Seth by making the butter in his hat melt.

59．What is the best title of the passage?

A．Great Fun B．The Right Revenge

C．A Fun-loving Grocer D．A Foolish Customer

If you thought sports stars Yao Ming and Liu Xiang or Internet entrepreneurs Zhang Chaoyang and Ding Lei would automatically be on the list of the” Men of Our Time”，then you could be behind the times．

The surprise in the list of 10 men released by the All-China Women’s Federation yesterday is that it contains no celebrities- and the guiding factors seem to be care and sympathy for the opposite sex．

In fact，Liu and Yao，as well as actor Pu Cunxin—the image ambassador for China’s anti-HIV，AIDS campaign—appeared in a booklet given out at the contest’s launch ceremony in January．The federation wouldn’t say why they are not in the final list．

The winners，with an average age of 47．5，were selected by women officials and journalists of the nine women’s newspapers in China，whose standard was men promoting equality between the sexes．

Li Zhong hua, a 46-year—old air force officer who test-flies planes，said he thought he was chosen because” he takes good care of his family，and is a gentleman”．

”Gentlemen get more respect in our society．They should be like those in the movie Titanic，who let women and children lave first in life rafts。”he told China Daily．

Shi Hua shan，a 48-year-old policeman in Gui xi of Jiangxi Province，said that he became a”man in the eyes of women” because” women love stories of heroes saving beauties"．

His team has rescued more than 180 women who were taken away by force and sold as wives in the mountain regions of Fujian Province．

Some other” Men of Our Time” are：

Lang Jinghe，67，gynecologist at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital in Beijing，who has made breakthroughs in ovarian cancer；

Ma Li，33，official in Xuzhou of Jiangsu Province，whose shelter has helped 196 victims of domestic violence；Li Mingshull，43，lawyer in Beijing，who is active in campaigns against family violence；Liu Ri，51，a mine worker in Lu’an of Shanxi Province，who took care of his paralyzed

parents·in-law for 23 years with his wife．

1.Which of the following statements is right?

A．Liu Xiang, a sports star, was on the list of the “Men of Our Time”．

B．LiZhonghua was a man in the eyes of women because he was an excellent air force officer．

C．Shi Huashan rescued women from forced marriages

D．The honor was given to Pu Cunxin at the launch ceremony in January．

2.Who is among the“Men of Our Time”?

A．Yao Ming B．Ma Li C．Pu Cunxin D．Liu Xiang

A．famous scientists B．famous actors
