第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）
第一节 （共10小题；每小题分，满分25分）
阅读下 列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选
项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
A
In 1812, the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels
published in Britain. People had been writing novels for a century — most
experts date the first novel to Robinson Crusoe in 1719 — but nobody wanted
to do it professionally. The steam-powered printing press was still in its early
stages; the literacy (识字) rate in England was under 50%. Many works of
fiction appeared without the names of the authors, often with something like
“By a lady.” Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral or
just plain bad.
In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first
professional writer and publisher, famous and beloved, who had led an
explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and whose
characters — from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim — were held up as moral
touchstones. Today Dickens’ greatness is unchallenged. Removing him from
the pantheon (名人堂) of English literature would make about as much sense
as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.
How did Dickens get to the top For all the feelings readers attach to
stories, literature is a numbers game, and the test of time is extremely difficult
to pass. Some 60,000 novels were published during the Victorian age, from
1837 to 1901; today a casual reader might be able to name a half-dozen of
them. It’s partly true that Dickens’ style of writing attracted audiences from all
walks of life. It’s partly that his writings rode a wave of social, political and
scientific progress. But it’s also that he rewrote the culture of literature and
put himself at the center. No one will ever know what mix of talent, ambition,
energy and luck made Dickens such a distinguished writer. But as the 200th
anniversary of his birth approaches, it is possible — and important for our
own culture — to understand how he made himself a lasting one.
21. Which of the following best describes British novels in the 18th century
A. They were difficult to understand.
B. They were popular among the rich.
C. They were seen as nearly worthless.
D. They were written mostly by women.
22. Dickens is compared with the Mona Lisa in the text to stress ________.
A. his reputation in France B. his interest in modern art
C. his success in publication D. his importance in literature
23. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To remember a great writer.
B. To introduce an English novel.
C. To encourage studies on culture.
D. To promote values of the Victorian age.
B
Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense
when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to
reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down
the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending
an industry behind the plastic shopping bag.
Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So
many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of
cities do not allow them at checkouts (收银台). The bags are prohibited in
some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds,
plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their
products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.
Among the bag makers’ arguments: many cities with bans still allow
shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more
energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at,
they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.
The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its
replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the
longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However,
longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study
found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the
planet than plastic.
Environmentalists don’t dispute (质疑) these points. They hope paper
bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable
bags for years.
24. What has Steven Stein been hired to do
A. Help increase grocery sales.
C. Stop things falling off trucks.
B. Recycle the waste material.
D. Argue for the use of plastic bags.
25. What does the word “headwinds” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Bans on plastic bags. B. Effects of city development.
C. Headaches caused by garbage. D. Plastic bags hung in trees.
26. What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers
A. They are quite expensive.
B. Replacing them can be difficult.
C. They are less strong than plastic bags.
D. Producing them requires more energy.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. Plastic, Paper or Neither
B. Industry, Pollution and Environment
C. Recycle or Throw Away
D. Garbage Collection and Waste Control

As cultural symbols go, the American car is quite young. The Model T Ford
was built at the Piquette Plant in Michigan a century ago, with the first rolling
off the assembly line (装配线) on September 27, 1908. Only eleven cars were
produced the next month. But eventually Henry Ford would build fifteen
million of them.
Modern America was born on the road, behind a wheel. The car shaped
some of the most lasting aspects of American culture: the roadside diner, the
billboard, the motel, even the hamburger. For most of the last century, the car
represented what it meant to be American — going forward at high speed to
find new worlds. The road novel, the road movie, these are the most typical
American ideas, born of abundant petrol, cheap cars and a never-ending
interstate highway system, the largest public works project in history.
In 1928 Herbert Hoover imagined an America with “a chicken in every pot
and a car in every garage. ” Since then, this society has moved onward, never
