After all, she recently celebrated her 90th birthday, and by the time she achieved that breathtaking milestone, she d already done a 10-year stretch in the Mississippi State Prison. Ms Hord is a swee
16、t-natured, gentle -talking, white-haired Southerner who never owed a debt to societythus, she never had to pay one. So you have to wonder what a woman like this is doing in a place where most people are itching to get loose. Unlike the rest of the population, Ms Hord goes to prison freely and eagerl
17、y. And when she gets there, she persuades prisoners of every sort to sing little ditties about their ABCs and XYZs. At age 80 , Ms Hord began teaching prisoners to read during a chance visit to the State Prison with a lawyer friend. “When I got there, I heard that a group of volunteer workers had be
18、en praying for a teacher. They asked me if I would come and I said I would be thrilled, “ she said. On a personal level, Ms Hord considers this rewarding work. If you get at the reason why these men went into crime, you will find that none of them succeeded in their early years of schooling. “They w
19、ent to school at 5 believing they were going to learn to read. When they didnt learn in the first or second grade, they realized something was wrong. By 8, they were having problems. By 12 or 13, they were drinking or using drugs. And its getting worse. I m seeing younger and younger prisoners who k
20、now less and less. They cant read well enough to function in this society. “ She says. It is this situation that Ms Hord goes to prison week after week to correct. And when her most difficult students finally begin to read, she is sure that she, too, knows why the caged birds sing.36 Ms Hord goes to
21、 prison eagerly to_.（A）sing songs for the prisoners（B） teach the prisoners to read（C） pray for the prisoners（D）make friends with the prisoners37 Judging from the context, itching (line 3, para 2) most probably means_.（A）afraid（B） willing（C） reluctant（D）eager38 According to Ms Hord, the root of crime
22、s lies in_.（A）racial discrimination（B） poor living condition（C） lack of proper education（D）addiction to alcohol or drug39 Which of the following statements can be inferred from the passage?（A）Many people volunteered to join Ms Hord in her work.（B） Most of the prisoners had no desire to learn as a ch
23、ild.（C） Ms Hord found some prisoners impossible to teach.（D）Ms Hord took up her volunteer job by chance. 40 Ms Hord regarded her job as_.（A）unique（B） valuable（C） interesting（D）tough40 Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitma
24、n has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you re “hot“. Thats true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak com
25、es during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this it so, but it leads to such familiar monologues(自言自语) as; “Get up, John ! You will be late for work again! “The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy pea
26、k in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You cant change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you re sleep
27、y in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This wont change your cycle, but
28、you ll get up steam (鼓起干劲) and work better at your low point. Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the ni
29、ght before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.41 If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably_.（A）he is a lazy person（B） he refuses to follow his own energy cycle（C） he is not sure when his
30、energy is low（D）he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening42 Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?（A）Unawareness of energy cycles.（B） Familiar monologues.（C） A change in a family members energy cycle.（D）Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family me
31、mbers. 43 If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should_.（A）change his energy cycle（B） overcome his laziness（C） get up earlier than usual（D）go to bed earlier44 You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will_.（A）help to keep your energy for the days
32、 work（B） help you to control your temper early in the day（C） enable you to concentrate on your routine work（D）keep your energy cycle under control all day45 Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?（A）Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save ones energy.（B） Dr. Kleitman explains why
33、 people reach their peaks at different hours of day.（C） Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.（D）Children have energy cycles, too. 45 When you enter the supermarket, you see shelves full of goods. You walk between the shelves. You carry a shopping basket and put your food in it. You pro
34、bably hear soft music as you walk. If you hear fast music, you walk quickly. The supermarket plays slow music. You walk slowly and have more time to buy things. Maybe you go to the meat department first. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where
35、customers enter the meat department. The cheaper meat is at the end of the meat department away from where the customers enter. You have to walk by all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat. Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale. The dairy (乳制品) depa
36、rtment sells milk and milk products such as butter and cheese. Many customers like milk that has only a little butterfat in it. One store has three different jars of low fat milk. One says “1 percent (1%) fat on the container“. The second says “99 percent (99%) fat free“. The third says “Low Fat“ in
37、 big letters and“l%“ in small letters. As you can see, all the milk has the same amount of fat. The milk is all the same. The amount of milk in each container is also the same. However in this store the three containers of milk dont cost the same. Maybe the customer will buy the milk that costs the
38、most. Most of the food in supermarkets is very pleasing. It all says “Buy me! “to the customers. The expensive meat says “ Buy me! “ as you walk by. The expensive milk jar says “ Buy me! I have less fat. “46 The manager of the supermarket knows_.（A）which customers like low fat milk（B） which customer
39、s like slow music（C） where customers enter the meat department（D）where customers come from47 When you walk by the expensive meat, maybe you will_.（A）buy some（B） try to find fresh fruit（C） look for low fat milk（D）just walk on48 There are three different jars of low fat milk, and_.（A）one has more fat
40、than the other two（B） they all cost the same amount of money（C） one has less fat then the others（D）they all have the same amount of fat49 Supermarket managers make the food pleasing so that_.（A）there will be more buyers（B） buyers will be proud（C） it is good and expensive（D）they can raise prices50 Lo
41、w fat milk is in the_.（A）meat department（B） fruit and vegetable department（C） sweets department（D）dairy department50 The sense of sound is one of our most important means of knowing what is going on around us. Sound has a waste product, too, in the form of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound
42、. Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets any better. Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals. They are surprised by what they have learned. Peace and quiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked
43、 at carefully. There is a saying that it is so noisy that you cant hear yourself think. Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear ourselves think. If we dont, we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even worse mental problems. Noise adds more tension (紧张) to a society that
44、 already faces enough stress. But noise is not a new problem. In ancient Rome, people complained so much about noise that government stopped chariots(四轮马车) from moving through the streets at night!Ways of making less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controlling noise. We cannot return
45、 to the“ good old days“ of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noiseif we shout loudly enough about it.51 Why are scientists surprised by the findings in their noise study?（A）Because noise is an unwanted waste for human beings.（B） Because the world is becoming more and more noisy.（C） Because they hav
46、e learned that noise is also a kind of pollution.（D）Because people knew little about noise before. 52 When the writer says we cannot return to the “ good old days“ , he means that_.（A）our society is becoming much worse than before（B） the old days were much happier than the present time（C） it is impo
47、ssible for us to deal with noise as we did before（D）in our modern society it is hard to lead a quiet life53 What may happen if we cannot hear ourselves think?（A）We may forget what we have thought about.（B） Our thoughts may be disturbed.（C） Our mind may be harmed.（D）we may have difficulty finding the
