满分分 满分40分分 阅读下列短文 从每题所给的四个选项 A B C 和 D 中 选出最佳选 项 并在答题卡将该项涂黑 A When a rather dirty poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg for a few coins do you hurry on not knowing what to do or do you feel sad and hurriedly hand over some money What should our attitude to beggars be There can be no question that the world is full of terribly sad stories It must be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from It seems cruel not to give some money to beggars Certainly most of the world s great religions order us to be open hearted and share what we have with those less fortunate than ourselves But has the world changed Maybe what was morally 道德方面 right in the old days when one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help is no longer the best idea Quite a few people will not give to beggars Let us look at their arguments First some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable and actually make a good living from begging Giving to beggars only encourages this sort of evil 恶行 Secondly there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer wine or drugs Thirdly there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging One might be poor but that is no reason for losing one s sense of pride and self dependence There is an opinion that the problem should be dealt with by the government rather than ordinary people Some people think the local government department should help the beggars It is hard to come to any final conclusion there are various 各种各样的 cases and we must deal with them differently A few coins can save a life in some situations and even if the money is wasted that does not take away the moral goodness of the giver 56 What is mainly discussed in the passage A Arguments on giving to beggars B Moral deeds of people C Moral goodness of the giver D Religious activities of the church 57 What can we infer from the underlined sentence But has the world changed in Para 2 A People no longer know who suffers misfortune in the village B We don t meet with those who need help any more C Some people will not do what was morally right in the past D Now it is the government s duty to help the beggars 58 Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage A Some people dress up to pretend to be beggars B Some beggars have no excuse for begging C Some beggars use the money to buy drugs D Some beggars need money for their children s schooling 59 In the last paragraph the writer thinks that it is hard to come to any final conclusion because A there is so much money wasted B there are so many beggars C the cases can be so different D there are so many different arguments B A Balanced Diet Your body works 24 hours a day It s always building and repairing feeding and cleansing itself Its goal is to be ready for your every movement breath and thought The quality of your life depends on how well your body works And how well your body works depends on how much energy it gets Energy comes from the food you eat Food contains nutrients that your body needs for growth and energy By eating a balanced diet your body gets the six important nutrients it needs Minerals 矿物质 are nutrients that build bones and teeth Minerals also form red blood cells and other substances Water aids digestion and waste removal Carbohydrates 碳水化合物 give your body its main source of energy Two carbohydrates are sugars from foods such as fruits and vegetables and starches found in rice potatoes and bread Fats help build cell membranes 膜 Proteins repair and grow body tissues 组织 Finally vitamins help your body use carbohydrates fats and proteins The United States Department of Agriculture USDA has created a nutritional food pyramid 金字塔 It shows the daily number of servings you should eat from five food groups The food pyramid has four levels The base of the pyramid is the largest level It contains the bread cereal rice and pasta group from which you need six to eleven servings The next level has two food groups vegetables and fruits The USDA recommends three to five servings of vegetables and two to four servings of fruit The third level also has two groups the milk yogurt and cheese group and the meat poultry fish dry beans eggs and nuts group You need two to three servings from each of these groups The top of the pyramid is the smallest level It contains fats oils and sweets These foods have few nutrients so eat them sparingly 有节制地 60 To help the readers understand the six nutrients needed by the body the author A describes the five basic food groups B explains what a balanced diet is C writes the name of each nutrient in italics 斜体 D tells the number of daily servings needed from each food group 61 A balanced die A is made up of foods from five food groups B includes many foods containing fat C includes six to eleven servings of fruit D can be got by taking vitamins 62 The first paragraph suggests that A food is something

this passage A We should have a nutrition food pyramid B A balanced diet is important for everyone C Meat poultry fish dry beans eggs and nuts are on the third level D Eating a balanced diet gives your body the energy it needs C Astronauts aboard the space station celebrated a space first on Wednesday by drinking water that had been recycled from their urine 尿 sweat and water got from air They said cheers clicked drinking bags and toasted NASA workers on the ground The urine recycling 循环 system is needed for astronaut stations on the moon and Mars It also will save NASA money because it won t have to ship up as much water to the station by space shuttles or cargo rockets Besides it s important as the space station is about to expand from three people living on board to six The recycling system had been brought up to the space station last November by space shuttles Endeavour but it couldn t be used until samples 样品 were tested back on earth So when it came time to actually drink up NASA made a big deal of it The three man crew stood holding their drinks and congratulated engineers in two NASA centers that worked on the system This is something that had been the stuff of science fiction American astronaut Michael Barratt said before taking a small mouthful The taste is worth trying The new system takes the combined urine of the crew from the toilet moves it to a big tank where the water is boiled off and the vapor is collected The rest of the urine is thrown away Then the water vapor is mixed with water from air and then it goes through filters 过滤器 When six crew members are aboard it can make about six gallons from urine in about six hours Some people may find the idea of drinking recycled urine distasteful but it is also done on earth but with a lot longer time between urine and the tap said Marybeth Edeen the space station s national lab manager The technology NASA developed for this system has already been used for quick water purification 净化 after the 2004 Asian tsunami 64 According to the text the recycling system is important because A it makes traveling to the moon for the average person possible B with it NASA won t need to ship any water up the space station C it can help meet the need for more water after the crew is expanded D it protects the environment in space by reducing the amount of waste 65 From paragraph 5 we can know A the process of recycling urine B the effect of the recycling system C the theory behind the recycling system D an opinion on recycling urine 66 What did Edeen say about recycled urine and the recycling system A The taste of recycled urine is not as good as that of common water B The recycling system has made a science fiction story come true C The idea of drinking recycled urine makes astronauts feel unpleasant D It takes a longer time on earth to make water from urine than in space 67 What is the best title for the passage A Drink up Space Station Recycles Urine to Water B New Technology Is Used in the Space Station C The Research of NASA Has Made Great Progress D Good News Water Recycled from Urine Tastes Good D With the average home in the capital selling for 19 548 yuan a square meter
