36．A.advising B．starting

37．A.coe up B．coe down
C．coe on D．coe out
解析：選B。聯(lián)系最后一段中的coe on down及we go down the stairs可知，父親是叫他們下樓(coe down)。
38．A.discover B．understand
C．receive D．reeber
解析：選D。從上作者對(duì)自己在圣誕節(jié)早晨急切行為的生動(dòng)描述中不難看出，作者對(duì)圣誕節(jié)的記憶很深，所以此處指作者仍然記著(reeber)自己對(duì)圣誕節(jié)的渴望。
39．A.year B．season
C．habit D．result
解析：選B。第三段首句中的the season有提示，此處指圣誕節(jié)這個(gè)時(shí)期(season)。

解析：選C。從冒號(hào)后列舉的東西可知，作者是說自己翻看(look through)圣誕節(jié)的禮品盒。
41．A.kids B．girls
C．boys D．babies
解析：選A。根據(jù)最后一段first y brother，then e...brother可知，作者家有4個(gè)孩子(kids)。選項(xiàng)中g(shù)irls，boys和babies所指的意思不全面，所以都不對(duì)。
42．A.wonder B．get
C．record D．decide
解析：選D。本句與下句it is usually a hurried activity形成對(duì)比，所以可以推知，過去很容易決定(decide)什么時(shí)候把圣誕節(jié)裝飾品掛起。
43．A.toys B．balls
C．jobs D．candies
解析：選C。結(jié)合本空后的social lives可以推知，此處指他們都有了自己的工作(jobs)。
44．A.surprise B．pain

解析：選B。本空后是對(duì)一些痛苦經(jīng)歷的描述，所以此處是指節(jié)日也會(huì)帶痛苦(pain)。
45．A.died B．failed
C．succeeded D．a(chǎn)rried
解析：選A。聯(lián)系句中的the worst等語境可知，此處指祖父母都去世(died)了。
46．A.Possibly B．Indeed
C．Instead D．Luckily
解析：選C。由于祖父母都去世了，作者不再去祖父母家過節(jié)，而是在自己家里團(tuán)聚。Instead表示“作為代替”。
47．A.ove back B．turn back
C．step back D．think back
解析：選D。當(dāng)作者回顧(think back)過去的事情的時(shí)候，仍然很想念……。ove back搬回；turn back轉(zhuǎn)身；step back走回。
48．A.gifts B．news
C．replies D．tools

49．A.bringing B．calling
C．telling D．introducing
答案：B
50．A.follow B．listen
C．watch D．stand
解析：選D。這里表述的都是作者對(duì)祖父的懷念之情。盡管作者不能忍受(stand)其他人叫她的昵稱，但她卻懷念祖父這么叫(calling)。
51．A.and B．so
C．but D．or
解析：選C。根據(jù)上下的邏輯關(guān)系可知，此處表示轉(zhuǎn)折意義(but)，而不是表示并列、因果或選擇，故排除A、B和D三項(xiàng)。
52．A.change B．grow
C．a(chǎn)ppear D．happen
解析：選A。下中父親的話語及作者的兄弟姐妹按順序下樓，都是沒有變(change)的東西。
53．A.beginning B．rest
C．truth D．happiness
解析：選B。在悲喜變遷中，那些沒有改變的東西對(duì)作者意義重大，并將伴隨作者余生(the rest of our lives)。

解析：選C。由上所述內(nèi)容可知，作者仍然能感受到(feel)真正的圣誕節(jié)精神。
第三部分 閱讀理解(共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分)
閱讀下列短，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
Forget chip fat，sugar cane or rapeseed(油菜籽) oil—the latest source of biofuel could be waterelons.
Scientists have discovered that the fruit is a great source of sugar that can be readily distilled(蒸餾) into alcohol to power cars and far achinery.
And because sellers reject 360,000 tons of “substandard” fruit annually in Aerica alone they could be used as an econoical way to ake fuel.The waste fro US growers could produce nearly two illion gallons(nine illion litres) of biofuel per year.
In the study，researchers at the US Departent of Agriculture set out to deterine the biofuel potential of juice fro rejected waterelons—those not sold due to cosetic iperfections，and currently ploughed back into the field.
About a fifth of each annual waterelon crop is left in the field because of surface bleishes (瑕疵) or because they are isshapen.
Dr.Wayne Fish，who led the tea，found that 50 percent of the fruit was ferentable (可發(fā)酵的) into alcohol which could provide valuable fuel.
“We’ve shown that the juice of these elons is a source of readily ferentable sugars，representing an unexploited raw aterial for alcohol biofuel production，”he said.
The study，published in the journal Biotechnology for Biofuels，discovered that waterelons could produce around 20 gallons of fuel per acre fro fruit that otherwise would go to waste.
Production of biofuels has been targeted by western governents as a way to support renewable energy targets.
The European Union has a target for 2010 that 5.75 percent of transport fuels should coe fro biological sources，but the target is unlikely to be et.
The British governet’s Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation requires five percent of the fuel sold at the pup by 2010 to be biofuel.
56．The passage ainly tells us ________.
A．western countries ai at producing biofuels
B．waterelons could be used to ake fuelxkb1.co
C．the advantages of fuel ade fro waterelons
D．waterelon juice will be the largest source of renewable energy
解析：選B。主旨大意題。本主題在第一段，即西瓜可以用做燃料。
57．Which of the following is NOT the reason why so any waterelons are deserted in Aerica each year?
A．They are substandard(不夠標(biāo)準(zhǔn))．
B．They are iperfect.
C．They are isshapen.
D．They are oversupplied.
解析：選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三、五段可知A、B、C項(xiàng)是美國西瓜被丟棄的原因，中沒有提到D項(xiàng)。
58．We can learn fro the text that ________.
A．sellers in the world throw away 360,000 tons of waterelons every year
B．a(chǎn)bout two gallons of fuel could be ade fro rejected fruit per acre
C．half of the waterelons were ferentable into alcohol to provide energy
D．five percent of fuel is required to be biofuel fro waterelons by 2010 in Britain
解析：選C。推理。根據(jù)第六段可知，有一半的西瓜可以發(fā)酵成酒提供燃料。
59．The underlined word“cosetic” in Paragraph 4 probably eans ________.
A．inside B．flavor
C．surface D．freshness
解析：選C。詞義理解題。根據(jù)下的surface bleishes可推知此處cosetic指西瓜的外在部分。
B
Jesse Owens is recognized as a hero not just because he is fast.Soe people ight say that they know hi for just that reason.However，there are lots of fast people who are not known.Jesse Owens is known because Chancellor Adolf Hitler did not shake the hand of Jesse Owens or even recognize his feat of winning four gold edals，because Owens was an African Aerican.
Jesse Owens owed uch of his success to his coach Charles Riley，who probably was the ost iportant one aking hi have the career that he did.Owens cae fro a background that required hi to work after school in a shoe shop.He couldn’t attend the regularly scheduled track practices organized by his school.However，Charles Riley saw the boy had both a passion (熱情) and a talent for running，and so arranged for hi to be able to practice before school instead.
Jesse Owens achieved this success despite (盡管) his racial background，which at the tie was a huge liitation to hi.He could only eat in certain restaurants and sleep in certain hotels，as could all African Aericans of the tie.He was also never offered a scholarship for school despite setting records for NCAA (美國全國大學(xué)生體育協(xié)會(huì)) chapionships.
The Berlin Olypics in 1936 is where his star rose as high as it would ever be able to.These Olypics were during the height of Hitler’s rule.It took courage to race in front of Hitler and any other racists (種族主義者)．It took tie，deterination，and perseverance (堅(jiān)持不懈) to race like hi.He won four gold edals at those Olypics.It would take alost fifty years for soeone else to walk away fro the Olypics with four gold edals.He passed away at the age of 66 fro lung cancer.
【解題導(dǎo)語】 本是關(guān)于美國黑人Jesse Owens的介紹。他在1936年柏林奧運(yùn)會(huì)上奪得4枚金牌，為美國帶了極大的榮譽(yù)，也使希特勒顏面無光。
60．The underlined word “feat” in Paragraph 1 is closest in eaning to “________”．
A．chance B．happiness
C．success D．hope
解析：選C。詞義猜測題。Jesse Owens獲得了四枚金牌，這是很成功的，而且最后一段也提到大約50年之后才有人同樣在奧運(yùn)會(huì)上拿走四枚金牌，這也同樣說明了Jesse Owens的豐功偉績。故答案選C項(xiàng)。
61.We know fro Paragraph 2 that Jesse Owens ________.
A．did not need to work after school
B．took part in the regular track practices
C．did not get along well with his coach
D．was arranged to practice before school
解析：選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句話的．..so arranged for hi to be able to practice before school instead可知Jesse Owens由于放學(xué)后要工作，不能參加常規(guī)的訓(xùn)練，而是被教練安排上前訓(xùn)練。故D項(xiàng)正確。
62．Jesse Owens was wellknown around the world ainly because he ________.
A．set records for NCAA chapionships
B．was brave enough to race in front of Adolf Hitler
C．didn’t want to shake hands with Hitler
D．was the first African Aerican to eat and sleep like whites in Aerica
解析：選B。推理。由最后一段的前三句可知，Jesse Owens聞名世界的原因是他敢于在種族主義者希特勒面前展現(xiàn)自己的實(shí)力。
63．According to the passage，which of the following about Jesse Owens is TRUE?
A．He won a scholarship for his setting records for NCAA chapionships.
B．He was never looked down upon as a running star.
C．Just like Hitler，he was also a racist.
D．He died fro cancer in his sixties.
解析：選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段末句可知A錯(cuò)誤；由第三段前兩句可得出B錯(cuò)誤；由末段可知，希特勒是名種族主義者，Jesse Owens因此受到歧視，而Jesse Owens并非種族主義者，故C錯(cuò)誤；由末段最后一句可知，D正確。

Researchers are placing robotic dogs(機(jī)器狗)in the hoes of lonely old people to deterine whether they can iprove the quality of life for huans.Alan Beck，an expert in huananial relationship，and Nancy Edwards，a professor of nursing，are leading the anialassisted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old people’s depression，physical activity，and life satisfaction.“No one will argue that an older person is better off being ore active，challenged，or stiulated(刺激)，”Edwards points out.“The proble is hoe proote(使……成為現(xiàn)實(shí))that，especially for those without friends or help.A robotic dog could be a solution.”
In the study，the robot，called AIBO，is placed for six weeks in the houses of soe old people who live alone.Before placing AIBO in the hoe，researchers will collect baseline data for six weeks.These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activity before and after AIBO.Then，the researchers will review the data to deterine if it has inspired any changes in the life of its owner.
