第二部分 阅读理解 （共25小题。第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题1分；满分45分）
第一节 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂?。
Language is a major problem for the European Union (EU). The agreement or treaty(条约)which created the organization that eventually became the EU, the Treaty of Rome, stated that each country’s language must be treated equally. The original six countries had only three languages between them: French, German and Dutch/Flemish. However, there are now 15 countries in the EU with a total of 12 languages. EU documents must be translated into all these languages, and at official meetings the speeches must be translated into all the languages by interpreters.
All this translating is very expensive and time-consuming(费时的). It is said that nearly half of all employees of the EU are engaged in translating documents and speeches, and nearly half of the EU’s administrative (管理方面的) costs are spent on this task. In the near future it is probably that several more countries, most of them having their own languages, will join the EU, thus making the situation even worse.
The problem is not just cost: there are practical difficulties as well. With 12 languages, there are 132 possible “translation situations” that might be needed. It is often difficult to find people in the right place at the right time who can translate from (for example) Danish into Greek, or Dutch into Portuguese , at a high professional standard.
In practice the problem has been made less
severe by the use of English in many contacts between EU officials, since
almost all of them speak some English. However, any move to reduce the number
of official languages (perhaps to four or five) would be a blow to the price of
the smaller countries. Another commonly suggested solution is to make English
the official language for all EU business. However, this is strongly resisted
by powerful member countries like
41. What’s the main purpose of this passage?
A. To give a solution to a problem.
B. To find out a problem and show how severe it is.
C. To criticize the European Union for inefficiency.
D. To show that the problem cannot be solved.
42. According to the writer, the use of English in contacts among EU officials has_______.
A. angered the officials who don’t speak English
B. reduced the number of official languages
C. lessened the effect of the problem
D. been opposed by powerful member countries
43. The writer mentions “Danish into Greek” as an example of_______.
A. a situation that might be difficult to deal with
B. a situation that occurs often
C. one of the 12 situations that requires an interpreter
D. languages easily being interpreted
44. The writer suggests that if the number of official languages was reduced______.
A. the EU would not know which official languages to choose
B. countries whose languages were not used officially would be unhappy
C. only languages which are easy to translate would be used officially
D. the smaller member countries would be pleased

IS IT TIME TO GET MP3?
Your computer has been playing music for years, one CD at a time. Now hundreds of songs can be stored in your PC (personal computer) if they’re in the MP3 format.
What is it?
MP3 compresses music into small computer friendly files. You access MP3 music several ways: Music can be downloaded from websites that have converted vast music libraries into MP3. Or you can prerecord CDs into your PC and convert songs in minutes into MP3. Once MP3 music is on your PC’s hard drive, you can play it through your computer’s speakers, “burn” it onto blank CDs or exchange MP3 files with friends using E-mail.
How much?
Software needed to play and convert MP3 music is often free. It comes preinstalled on most new computers or can be downloaded from many websites, including MP3.com. Some MP3 sites are free. Just type “MP3 sites” into any search engine. The popular MP3 players start at around $50 and can hold hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music costs about a dollar.
MP3 turns your home PC into a tape recorder. Tiny MP3 players are the size of a card, making it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.
You may find that music at many sites is limited. And some only allow you to listen rather than download offerings. Others let you download music that then can’t be copied to MP3 players. And a growing number of new CDs make it impossible to copy songs to a computer.
49. How can you get MP3 music?
A. By turning your home PC into a tape recorder.
B. By taking your own music or songs with you.
C. By copying songs to a PC through the speakers.
D. By downloading from websites which have converted music libraries into MP3.
50. Which is NOT true according to the passage?
A. MP3 music can be downloaded for free at any site.
B. MP3 music can be exchanged with friends by e-mail.
C. Software needed to play and convert MP3 music is often free of charge.
D. A greater number of new CDs make it impossible to copy songs to a computer.
51. The underlined word “burn” probably means_____.
A. fire B. change C. destroy D. play
52. How much will you pay for a MP3 player?
A. Free of charge. B. Free downloading.
C. At least fifty dollars. D. About a dollar.
Most people think their time problems are outer, and that they are caused by the telephone, meetings, visitors, and delayed information or decisions. Although these problems often have a bad effect on them, when people call or drop in, we usually contribute to them. We fail to have calls screened by a skillful secretary or assistant, or we leave our door open, actually assuring constant interruptions.
In almost all cases, it is possible to influence, if not control, it usually can cause problems, such as, slowness and indecision, lack of self-discipline, the inability to delegate, or the tendency to fight fires, to act without thinking, and to jump from task to task without finishing any of them.
Time is constant that cannot be changed. The clock cannot be slowed down or speeded up. Thus we cannot manage time itself. We can only manage our activities with respect to time.
The same skills are needed as those used in managing others―the abilities to plan, organize, delegate, direct, and control. Time management is simply self-management. It is impossible to be effective in any position without controlling one’s time effectively.
Successful time management does not mean working harder, but working smarter. All kinds of management skills must be used in the home and office to get most value from time. You must think ahead about what to do, and timely than others, making it get maximum results in the shortest possible period.
53. According to the writer, time problems .
A. are caused by the telephone, meetings and visitors
B. are caused by delayed information or decisions
C. can be solved by self-management
D. can’t be controlled
54. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the problems caused by poor time management?
A. Slowness and indecision.
B. Lack of self-discipline.
C. Jumping from task to task without finishing any of them.
D. Working hard.
55. It can be concluded from the passage that the abilities to plan, organize, delegate, direct and control should .
A. be used in managing others’ activities
B. be used in managing one’s own activities
C. not be used in time management
D. be used in managing both others’ and one’s own activities
56. We can also draw a conclusion that the key to successful time management is .
A. working harder and harder
B. clever self-management
C. thinking of what to do, and how and when to do it
D. employing a skillful secretary
The Human Genome Project, a great $3 billion, 15-year task aimed at drawing the genetic map of humans, is now more than 90 percent completed. The scientific and medical communities are very excited about the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging human life. But those communities and policy makers are also careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life.
For the last few years, the genetic advances in the fast developing field of biotechnology have provided material for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of human genetic code have opened a world of possibilities for human health, as well as for the population imagination.
While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid progress in decoding human DNA, the leading organization for genetic research in the Untied States, which began in 1990, is “unlocking the code” of the human body to learn how to defeat fatal diseases. Already, the Human Genome Project has become widely known and praised for finding the genes connected with as yet terrible diseases, and making progress toward separating the genes that show a sign of breast cancer or AIDS.
Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections, and genetic diseases. Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome; as they expect to develop a lot of new drugs for these illnesses.
57. Why did the scientists work so hard at mapping the human genome?
A. Because the human genome can destroy many illnesses.
B. Because the human genome’s completion can help to get rid of many diseases.
C. Because they wanted to be better known than others.
D. Because the Human Genome Project can provided a lot of chances of work.
58. According to the passage, which of the following countries is the most advanced in genetic research?
A. Japan B. Germany
C. The
59. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. If the genes can be found, scientists can study many new ways to cure illnesses.
B. The United States began genetic research in the early 19th century.
C. Many medical companies show great interest in drawing the human genome map.
D. The scientists have made great progress in connecting some genes with the cancers.
60. What is mainly talked about in this passage?
A. The great human genome. B. The discovery of genes.
C. Unlocking the genetic code. D. Genes and scientists.

One possible version:
A recent survey shows that the health of the students in our school has been going from bad to worse in the past three years. The number of nearsighted students has increased from 78.2% in 2005 to 92.5% in 2008, while that of overweight, from 36% to 52.4%. Nearly 10% more students lack sleep because of more homework to do. Besides, over 15% more students become mentally unhealthy.
To improve students’ health, we call for less homework. Only in this way can students get plenty of sleep and meanwhile prevent them from being nearsighted. Proper diets and exercise should also be paid attention to so that they won’t easily put on weight. With their heavy burdens removed, students can then keep in normal mental health.
