第一篇
Tales of the Terrible Past
It is not the job of fiction writers to analyze and interpret history. Yet by writing about the past in a vivid and compelling manner, storytellers can bring earlier eras to life and force readers to consider them seriously. Among those taking on the task of recounting history are some black writers who attempt to examine slavery from different points of view.
Nobel Prize-winning author Toni Morrison deals specifically with the legacy of slavery in her book Beloved. The main character in this novel, a former slave called Sethe, lives in Ohio in the years following the Civil War, but she cannot free herself from her horrific memories. Through a series of flashbacks and bitter reminiscences, the reader learns how and why Sethe escaped from the plantation she had lived on; the fate of her husband, who also tried to escape; and finally, what happened to the child called Beloved. Morrison's scenes of torture and murder are vivid and strongly convey the desperation of the slaves and the cruelty of their owners.
Charles Johnson's Middle Passage approaches slavery from a different, yet no less violent,vantage point. His main character, Rutherfprd Calhoun, is a ne'er-do-well free black American who stows away on a slave ship bound for Africa to collect its "cargo". Put to work after he is discovered,Calhoun witnesses firsthand the appalling conditions in which the captured Africans are transported.
When they finally rebel and take over the ship, he finds himself in the middle-- and is forced to come to terms with who he is and what his values are.
Neither Beloved nor Middle Passage is an easy read, but both exemplify African American writers' attempts to bring significant historical situations alive for a modem audience.

A. the causes of slavery in America

A. on a slave ship

A. everyone should read Morrison's and Johnson's novels
B. the books are worthwhile but challenging

第二篇
An Unhappy Trip
It was Friday, the day of the field trip on which Miss Joan would take her class to pick apples.
Miss Joan enjoyed picking apples with her students. She smiled as she led her students to the bus that would take them to the Greenly Apple Orchard ( 果園) .
The bus ride was bumpy and the kids were a little noisy, but still Miss Joan was smiling.
The bus stopped in front of the Greenly Apple Orchard and the class got off quickly and quietly. Miss Joan made sure everyone was there. "What a glorious, sunny, apple picking day,"Miss Joan announced with her grandest smile.
Mr. Greenly was there to greet them. "Let's see, there are eighteen children and two adults at three dollars each. That will be sixty dollars, please."
Miss Joan held up the brochure in her hand. "It says that the price is two dollars each," she pointed out. "That's what I collected from everyone."
"We've had to raise the price," Mr. Greenly stated.
"You sent me this brochure after we made our reservation," Miss Joan complained, "and it says two dollars!"
"Miss Joan, if you look at the bottom of this brochure," Mr. Greenly said, "you'll notice very important statement."
Sure enough, in very tiny letters, it said, "Prices are subject to change without notice."
Miss Joan was determined to keep her good mood. She took a twenty dollars bill out of her own purse and handed it to Mr. Greenly with the forty dollars she had in an envelope.
"Now children, do you all have your baskets?" Miss Joan called out. "Remember, each of you can pick as many apples as possible."
Mr. Greenly said, "You can't pick as many apples as possible."
"I beg your pardon!" Miss Joan was not smiling now. "The brochure says, 'ALL YOU
CAN PICK'!"
Mr. Greenly pointed to the tiniest letters Miss Joan had ever almost seen. It also says, "Terms and conditions of group reservations are subject to change without notice."
Miss Joan's good mood was now history. She didn't want to set a bad example for her students,so she said in a calm and quiet voice, "We're going home, give me our money back, please."

38. The students could not pick as many apples as they would like because __________ .

D. She didn't know how to complain.
第三篇
Sea Horses
Sea horses are unusual parents. The female sea horses lay the eggs, but unlike other creatures,it's the males that give birth to the young.
Male sea horses have a fold of skin on their bellies that forms pocket, called a brood pouch.
During the breeding season, the sea horse's pouch swells to receive eggs. A female sea horse lays up to 200 eggs at a time in the pouch. Then she swims off, leaving her male partner to care for the developing eggs and give birth to young sea horses. The female will return everyday to check on her mate and the eggs, but she doesn't stay long, nor does she take part in the birth.
It takes from two to six weeks for the eggs in the male's pouch to develop. During this time the male avoids open water and hides in sea grass. His big pouch makes it difficult for him to swim, so the male often uses his tail to grasp a piece of sea grass. Firmly gripping the grass, he will stay perfectly still for hours or even days. The male sea horse will change his color to blend with his surroundings and avoid being seen by predators who will try to eat him or poke holes in his pouch to get the eggs.
The eggs hatch inside the male's pouch. When the babies begin moving around, the male sea horse knows it's time for them to be born. He grabs a sea grass stem with his tail and begins rocking, bending, and stretching his body so that the rest of the babies can be born. Sometimes he has to press his pouch against a rock or some stiff seaweed to force the young out.
Sea horse babies are bom in groups of five or more. Sometimes it takes two days for the father sea horse to give birth to all his young. He is very tired when it's over.
Soon after giving birth to one brood, the male will approach his mate and show her his empty pouch. This tells her he is ready to receive eggs again.
41. What part does the female sea horse play in having babies?
A. Receiving eggs.
B. Laying eggs.
C. Hatching eggs.
D. Protecting eggs.
42. What can be leamed from the passage about giving birth to baby sea horses?
A. It is dangerous for the female.
B. It happens once a year.
C. It is hard work for the male.
D. It occurs in the deep sea.
43. To protect himself and his eggs, the male sea horse does all the following EXCEPT __________ .
A. changing his color
B. gripping a piece of grass
C. staying motionless
D. enlarging his pouch
44. The author suggests that when sea horse babies are ready to be born __________ .
A. the male sea horse seems very happy
B. it is difficult for them to come out
C. the female sea horse joins the male
D. they need larger space in the pouch

參考答案：第4部分：閱讀理解
第一篇
31.D。主旨題。題干：這篇文章主要講什么?A的意思是“美國奴隸制的原因”。B的意思是“20世紀(jì)的黑人作家”。C的意思是“莫里森和約翰遜寫書的原因”。D的意思是“關(guān)于奴隸制的兩本小說”。通讀全文可知，本文主要介紹了莫里森和約翰遜各自關(guān)于奴隸制的小說的主要內(nèi)容，因此D是正確的答案。
32.C。細節(jié)題。題干：《寵兒》的設(shè)置背景是什么?根據(jù)第二段的第二句話“The main characters in this novel…lives in Ohio in the years following the Civil War”可知其背景是在內(nèi)戰(zhàn)之后的俄亥俄州。因此C是正確答案。
33.B。態(tài)度題。題干：作者的感覺是什么?A的意思是“每個人都應(yīng)該讀莫里森和約翰遜的小說”。B的意思是“這些作品非常值得寫但又很有挑戰(zhàn)性”。C的意思是“黑人作家應(yīng)當(dāng)忽略種族問題”。D的意思是“如果我們不了解過去，那么這些過去就會重現(xiàn)”。文章最后一段說到，這兩部小說讀起來都不輕松，但是它們都是非裔美國作家努力為現(xiàn)代觀眾重現(xiàn)重要歷史的典范之作，由此可推斷出作者覺得這些作品都是值得花費時間和精力去讀并且很有挑戰(zhàn)性的。故選B。
34.D。細節(jié)題。題干：作者強調(diào)兩部作品的共同之處是什么?根據(jù)第三段的第一句話：yet no less violent可知Johnson的小說從另外一個角度來描寫奴隸制，但同樣充滿著暴力。聯(lián)系上文可知，這兩部作品在對暴力的描寫這一點上是相似的。因此D是正確的答案。
35.A。詞匯題。題干：appallin9的意思是什么?根據(jù)第三段對運送非洲人去美國的描述可知，黑人奴隸們的境況必然是糟糕的。A的意思是“糟糕的”。B的意思是“令人驚訝的”。C的意思是“有罪的”。D的意思是“不現(xiàn)實的”。因此根據(jù)文意，A是正確的答案。
第二篇
36.c。細節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章論述可知，Miss Joan的信封里有40美元，自己掏腰包拿出20美元，所以共計60美元。故答案為C。
37.A。細節(jié)推理題。subject to change without notice意為“改變恕不通知”即Mr.Greenly可以任意改變條款，不需要通知給任何人。故答案為A。
38.C。細節(jié)題。因為他們是團購。文中“Terms and conditions ofgroup reservations are subject to change without notice”意為“團購條件改變恕不通知”。故答案為C。
39.A。推理題。be history是固定詞組，意為“結(jié)束了，過去了”，即從那時起Miss Joan不再高興了。故答案為A。
40.A。細節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章論述可知，Miss Joan沒有仔細看合同的條款，她只是看到那些很顯眼的吸引人的廣告，而沒有看到小字書寫的限制條款。故答案為A。
第三篇
41.B。細節(jié)判斷題。第一段指出雌性海馬產(chǎn)卵，雄性海馬孵化。其他三項是由雄性海馬完成的。故答案為B。
42.c。細節(jié)題。本題可用排除法來做。A，B和D三項文中均未提到。本文通篇在講述雄性海馬保護卵及孵化幼仔的辛苦過程。尤其是第五段指出有時候要用兩天時間才能孵化出所有幼仔，可見雄性海馬非常辛苦。故答案為C。
43.D。細節(jié)題。A，B和C三項在第三段提到。故答案為D。
44.B。細節(jié)題。第四段指出：當(dāng)幼仔要出生的時候，雄性海馬要用尾巴緊緊抓住海草莖，并且搖動、彎曲和盡力伸展身體，有時候還要借助巖石或堅硬的海藻來擠壓以迫使幼仔出來，可見幼仔出生很不容易。其他三項文章都未提到。故答案為B。
45.A。細節(jié)題。全文重點介紹雄性海馬孵化幼仔的過程。其他三項雖然在文中都提過，但不是重點。故答案為A。
