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(A、B、C、D）四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Drunken driving sometimes called American's socially accepted form of murder has become a national epidemic（流行病）．Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past ten years．A drunken driver is usually referred to as one with 0．10-blood alcohol content or roughly three beers, glasses of wines or shots of whisky drunk within two hours．Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American manly image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken killing has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially concerning young children, that public opinion is no longer tolerant．

Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trend （逆转潮流） in the 1960s to reduce it to 18．After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21．

Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop "responsible attitudes" about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink．

Some states are punishing bars for serving customers too many drinks．A bar in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was "obviously drunk" and later drove off the land, killing a nine-year-old boy．

As the accidents continue to occur daily in every state, some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years national prohibition （禁令） of alcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the "noble experiment"．They forget that legal prohibition didn't stop drinking, but encouraged political corruption （腐败） and organized crime．As with the booming drug trade generally, there is no easy solution．

56．It can be inferred from the passage that drunken driving has become a major problem in the United States because___．

       A．most Americans like drinking

       B．heavy dinking is hard to avoid

       C．Americans are not shocked by traffic accidents

       D．many Americans are killed by traffic accidents

57．What can be inferred from the fact of the traffic accidents in New Jersey?

       A．Drivers should not be allowed to drink．

       B．Young drivers were usually bad．

       C．The legal drinking age should be raised．

       D．Some drivers didn't reach the legal drinking age．

58．The underlined word "lenient" in the first paragraph means___．

       A．cruel B．serious    C．determined           D．merciful

59．Which of the following best shows the writer's opinion of drunken driving?

       A．It may cause organized crime．

       B．The new laws can stop heavy drinking．

       C．There should be no bars to serve drinks．

       D．It is difficult to solve the problem．

We convince ourselves that life will be better once we are married, have a baby, then another．Then we get frustrated because our children are not old enough and that all will be well when they are older．Then we are frustrated because they reach teenage years and we must deal with them．Surely we'll be happier when they grow out of the teen years．

We tell ourselves our life will be better when our spouse （配偶） gets his/her act together, when we have a nicer car, when we can take a vacation, when we finally retire．The truth is that there is no better time to be happy than right now．If not, then when? Your life will always be full of challenges．It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy in spite of it all．

For the longest time, it seemed that life was about to start—real life．

But there was always some obstacles （挫折） along the way, an ordeal （苦难） to get through, some work to be finished, some time to be given, a bill to be paid．Then life would start．It finally dawned on me that those obstacles were part of life．Little by little, that point of view also helped me see that there isn't any road to happiness．

Happiness is the road．So, enjoy every moment．And bear in mind that__________．So stop waiting for school to end, for a return to school, to lose ten pounds, to gain ten pounds, for work to begin, to get married, for Friday evening, for Sunday morning, waiting for a new car, for your mortgage（借款） to be paid off, for spring, for summer, for fall, for winter, for the first or the fifteenth of the month, for your song to be played on the radio, to die, to be reborn… before deciding to be happy．

Happiness is a voyage, not a destination．There is no better time to be happy than… NOW! Live and enjoy the moment．

60．The most proper title for the passage should be______．

       A．Happiness Is a Frustration   B．Happiness Is a Destination

       C．Happiness Is a Dream          D．Happiness is a Process

61．The first two paragraphs mainly tell us_______．

       A．life is a worthwhile but challenging voyage

       B．so long as you believe you can, you can

       C．people tend to think the future will be brighter than now

       D．people feel at a loss about their life

62．The writer thinks _______is a real happiness

       A．setting our imagination free    B．enjoying our present life

       C．finding our own shortcut to success       D．facing obstacles and challenges bravely

63．Which of the sayings can fill in the blank in the fourth paragraph?

       A．Time waits for no one     B．Time is money．

       C．Tomorrow is another day．    D．Time can work wonders．

Thousands of people in the world are a hundred years old－or more and certain parts of the world are famous for the long lives of their inhabitants: the Vilacamba Valley in Ecuador, and the home of the Hunzas in the Himalayas．

Why do so many people live to a healthy old age in certain parts of the world? What is the secret of their long lives? Three things seem to be very important: fresh air, fresh food and a simple way of life．People work near their homes in the clean mountain air instead of travelling long distances to work by bus, car or train．They do not sit all day in busy offices or factories, but work hard outdoors in the fields．They take more exercise and eat less food than people in the cities of the West．For years the Hunzas of the Himalayas did not need policemen, lawyers or doctors．There was no crime, no divorce and not much illness in their society． They were a happy, peaceful people, famous all over India for their long, healthy lives．

Do you want to live to a hundred years old? Here are some rules for success．Firstly, choose your parents and grandparents carefully．If they lived or live to a good old age, so will you．Secondly, live in the right place．Thirdly, choose the right  kind of job．Doctors, dentists and bus-drivers die young．Farmers, priests and orchestral conductors live much longer．If you are in the wrong kind of job, you can still improve your way of life．

An old man in the Caucasus was talking about his past life．"I was young then," he said, as he described his 87th year．His secret was: "Think young and stay young．" An old woman from Missouri, USA, gave this advice, "Drink a little whisky and some warm beer every day．" An English lady just said, "Take a cold bath every morning．" The shortest, simplest piece of advice came from Mr．Jim Chapman, aged 103．"Just keep breathing," he told reporters．

72．Who is most likely to live a long life?

A．A doctor． B．A bus-driver． C．A dentist． D．An orchestral conductor．

73．We can see from the passage that long-lived people avoid ____．

A．working hard             B．drinking

C．eating too much             D．taking cold baths

74．The passage indicates that we can change our _____to live a long life．

A．jobs    B．places of living   C．ways of living   D．ways of thinking

75．What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph?

A．Whose advice is the best．

B．Who is the most long-lived person in the world．

C．Lifestyles of long-lived people．

D．How long-lived people think of their life．
