Recently I paid a visit to Harvard University, where there are top class scientists and professors and the best academic system in the world.
I was pretty 36 when I first stepped onto the campus. Well, it's not even really a campus. It's 37 like a district in a small town.
Harvard's main buildings are from the 18th century, They look very old and 38 . You might 39 say they're a little shabby. They don't fit the modern 40 of university at all. The buildings are surrounded by 41 and trees, so I felt as if I had walked into a medieval (中世紀(jì)的) castle. But when I looked across the street, 42 shops and in-fashion students made me feel like I was in the 21st century 43 . It creates a strong contrast and brings a special 44 to the school.
Our tour 45 Gary took us around and told us, "You see this grass field in the center of the school? Here is where they hold their 46 ceremony. They just set up tents and benches and have a very simple ceremony.” It's 47 ! Who would think the most talented students just graduate on the grass?
I 48 some students put a blanket on the grass and lie down to read a book. When I listened to the soft sound of 49 turning, along with chirping of the birds, I felt very 50 . There was no competitive feeling at all.
Harvard has the world's first computer in its science centre 51 there are hundreds of high-end computers, too. Its religion and the literature departments are also 52 the best. It is the perfect mix of tradition and 53 technology. It makes Harvard a very attractive place to 54 in. I hope one day I'll 55 my dream school -- Harvard.
36. A. upset B. troubled C. shocked D. tired
37. A. less B. much C. more D. most

第三部分: 閱讀理解 (共兩節(jié)，滿分40分)

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A
"Get out of the plane!" Justin shouted. Teddy and he dropped to the ground…
When Kathy and Victor reached the edge of the meadow, flames of the fire were shooting more than five meters into the air．
Kathy couldn't believe what she was seeing．One glance told her they needed medical attention immediately．She questioned Victor, "Are you able to find someone nearby for help?"
"There are no farmers, nor villagers nearby," he replied．
"I'm a distance runner, and I'll go for help．" Looking at the seriously injured men, Kathy said to Victor, "It may take me several hours to get out．" She started out．
When she was 23, Kathy set a women's record in a Marathon of 42 kilometers．But now she was running the race of life. She had nearly 30 kilometers of hard wilderness to cover to get help．
Kathy had been running for two hours．This was far back into the wilderness．The country path was growing vague．She stopped to take a quick compass reading．Yes, she had run almost for more than 20 kilometers．Her heart fell, her muscle aching．And finally she saw her car in the distance．
She jumped into the car and sped away．She reached a holiday house and called the police．
During the wait, she walked around, relaxing her legs and drinking water. It took almost two hours for a police helicopter to reach her at the trail end．They needed her for one more task．
56．Who actually had the airplane accident?
A．Justin and Teddy B．Kathy and Victor
C．Justin himself D．Kathy herself
57．The underlined part "Now, she was running the race of life" means that ____．
A．Kathy would set up a new record
B．Kathy would run a race alone
C．Kathy was running for the lives of others
D．Kathy couldn't rely on Victor this time
58．Kathy stopped to have a look at her compass because ____．
A．she wasn't sure of her own memory B．she had completely lost her way
C．the country path was getting vague D．there was only the wilderness
59．What do you think Kathy's final task would be?
A．Giving the injured food and drinks． B．Showing the police the crash site．
C．Going back to put out the big fire． D．Taking the injured to the hospital．
B
It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible．Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel．It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter altogether.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too．It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving．On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting．A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and calm so necessary in modern traffic condition．But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enough．Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous．Typical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may be not able to stop in time．The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to．It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies (奶奶).
An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings．Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive．Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users．It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
60．According to the passage, troubles on the road are often caused by .
A．road conditions
B．the speed of modern life
C．the large number of cars
D．the behavior of the drivers
61．In the writer’s opinion, .
A．drivers should show road politeness properly
B．strict traffic rules are badly needed
C．unskillful drivers should be punished
D. drivers should avoid traffic jams
62． The underlined word “give-and-take” in the passage means .
A．politeness and impoliteness
B．willingness to give in to each other’s wishes
C．offering help to others as much as possible
D．good manners and bad manners
63．What is the best title of the passage?
A．Road Politeness
B．Traffic Problems
C．Bad Manners on the Road
D．Good Drivers and Bad Drivers
C

Copenhagen, one of the world’s most bicycle-friendly cities, has begun turning its extensive network of cycle paths into bike highways in an effort to push more commuters (上下班往返的人) to leave their cars at home.
Considered one of Europe’s two “bicycle capitals” along with Amsterdam, Copenhagen counts more bicycles than people and cycling is so popular that its numerous bike paths can become congested(堵塞的).
Two-wheeler traffic jams are especially regular on the main Noerrebrogade thoroughfare (大街) used by around 36,000 cyclists a day. “You have to elbow your way to go forward and some cyclists aren’t always thoughtful,” complains 22-year-old university student Lea Bresell.
The creation of bike highways “comes right on time”, says Danish Cyclist Federation spokesman Frits Bredal. “Copenhagen’s roads are overloaded with people who want to ride their bicycles in all kinds of weather,” he says.
If in the 1960s Danes viewed the car as the symbol of freedom, the bicycle has assumed that rol e today, Bredal says. “It’s a means of transportation used by all social classes, and even politicians ride bikes,” he says.
It is on crowded Noerrebrogade ― the busiest bicycle street in Europe ― that city planners have decided to build the first of Copenhagen’s environmentally friendly streets. The jammed bike paths will be widened up to four meters on either side of the road, which will itself be reserved for buses only.
The idea is to make Noerrebrogade “Europe’s great cycling street”, says Andreas Roehl, the Copenhagen city’s bicycle program manager who is also known as “Mister Bike”.
But Roehl is not content with making life easier for Copenhagen’s inner city cyclists: He wants to get suburbanites (郊區(qū)居民) out of their cars and onto two wheels as well.
His goal is to increase the percentage of suburban commuters cycling to and from the city from the 33 percent it is today to more than 50 percent by 2015. Within the city, 55 percent of all commuters already travel by bike.
Already Copenhagen stands out among other European capitals for its cycling infrastructure, counting more than 390 kilometers of bike paths.
67. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Copenhagen is one of Europe’s two “bicycle capitals”.
B. Copenhagen is planning to build highways.
C. Copenhagen is planning to build bicycle-friendly highways.
D. Two-wheeler traffic jams are especially common in Copenhagen.
68. What does Lea Bresell think of the present bike traffic on the main Noerrebrogade thoroughfare?
A. Terrible B. Pleasant
C. Cyclists are considerateD. Bike paths are not made full use of
69. We can infer that _______.
A. most of people in Copenhagen can’t afford to buy cars
B. cars will not be allowed to run on the widened Noerrebrogade thoroughfare
C. hiking is very common in Copenhagen
D. Noerrebrogade thoroughfare will be deserted
70. How do suburban commuters travel to and from the city in Copenhagen at present?
A. More than half of the suburban commuters travel by bike.
B. Almost all the suburban commuters take buses.
C. Few suburban commuters travel by car.
D. About one third of the suburban commuters travel by bike.

The First Americans
There was a time long ago when a land bridge connected Asia and North America．The first settlers in North America crossed this land bridge from what is now Siberia to Alaska．The people who made this initial crossing were probably following the animals they used for food．
Finally, the oceans rose and the land bridge between the continents disappeared．The settlers, who I shall call the "First Americans" , could not return to their homeland． 71
For the next few thousand years, the First Americans moved south and east throughout North and South America．They made the journey all the way from Alaska to the southern tip of South America, a distance of more than 10,000 miles． 72
In the far north, above the Arctic Circle, the First Americans became hunters of the ocean． 73 __ In the summer, they gathered berries and other plants．In the winter, they stayed in lodges much of the time preparing for the next summer．It was a hard life, but they learned to survive in these terrible conditions．
Farther south, in what is now Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico, the First Americans became cliff dwellers．They began by living in caves that already existed in the cliffs． 74 The dwellings they built in many ways resembled today's apartment buildings．
75 They built a system of dams and canals so they could store and use water almost any time of the year．They were so successful that they could raise fruits and vegetables that were not found naturally in the desert．
A. They also discovered foods like corn and potatoes．
B. Along the way, they established many different civilizations．
C. They discovered how to add to the caves by building structures of wood and stone．
D. People living near each other tended to share similar environments and customs．
E. They built boats of animal skins and hunted or fished for their food．
F. They would have to survive in the New World, they had discovered．
G. The First Americans of the Southwest learned to water the desert．
