Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2points for each item) 从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案,并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑。 Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. Soccer it is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been a few players who were truly great. How did these players get that way--- was it through training and practice, or are great players “born, not made”? First, these players come from places that have had famous stars in the past---players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup---three from south America and three from Western Europe. There has never been a great national team---or a really great player---from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at the age of three or four. Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood---a poor, crowded area where a boy’s dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool, which produced the Beatles, had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball” made of rags. And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums of Belfast. All great players have a lot in common, but that doesn’t explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.
21. According to the author, which of the following statement is true?
- Soccer is popular all over the world, but truly great players are rare.
- Millions of people all over the world are playing soccer, but only six countries have ever had famous stars.
- Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but only six countries from South America and Western Europe have ever had great national teams.
- All over the world soccer is one of the most popular games, but it seems least popular in North America or Asia.
22. The word “tricks” at the end of Para.2 is closest in meaning to ______. A、experience B、cheating C、skills D、training 23. Liverpool and Brazilian streets are two geographic terms used to illustrate______. A、where soccer players get heir way B、how neighborhood affects a soccer player’s success C、why they can produce the best soccer teams D、what a poor, crowded area will provided a future soccer player with 24. in the last paragraph the statement “…but only one became Pele” indicate that______. A、Pele is the greatest soccer player B、the greatest players are born with some unique quality C、Pele’s birthplace sets him apart from all the others D、the success of a soccer player has everything to do with the family background 25. to get the way for a great player, a series of factors are directly mentioned, except _______. A、age and birth B、family and neighborhood C、training and practice D、personality and character
Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. It is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, and the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation. Language and learning begins with listening. Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gestures and by making questioning noises. Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that the during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since these can not be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to their repertoire(能发出的全部声音).this self-imitation leads to deliberate (有意识的)imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech. 26. By“……challenges explanation”(line 2, Para 1) the author means that____
- no explanation necessary for such an obvious phenomenon
- no explanation has been made up to now
- it’s no easy job to provide an adequate explanation
- it’s high time that an explanation was provided
27. The third paragraph is mainly about______
- the development of babies’ early forms of language
- the difficulties of babies in learning to speak
-
babies’ strong desire to communicate
· babies’ intention to communicate
28. The author’s purpose in writing the second paragraph is to show that children______
- usually obey without asking questions
- are passive in the process of learning to speak
- are born cooperative
- learn to speak by listening
29. From the passage we learn that________
- early starters can learn to speak within only six months
- children show a strong desire to communicate by making noises
- imitation plays an important role in learning to speak
- children have various difficulties in learning to speak
30. The best title for this passage would be_____
- how babies learned to speak
- early forms of speech
- a huge task for children
- noise making and language learning
Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
Since the earliest times, trees have always been very useful and important to man who made use of them in many ways. Even today trees continue to serve man in so many ways. Trees provide man with fruits and building materials in the form of wood. Without trees it would be impossible to build houses, boats and even bridges. Furniture such as tables, chairs and beds is made of wood. In the tropics(热带地区)where it is very hot throughout the year, trees protect man from the terrible heat. They are also useful in preventing good and rich top soil from being washed away during heavy rains which are so common in the tropics. If there were no trees of vegetation(植被)of some kind to hold back the soil with their roots, heavy rain would wash away the rich surface soil that is so important and necessary to agriculture. The result is that the land becomes a desert. There are so many desert areas in the world. A long time ago these desert areas must have been very fertile(肥沃的)areas, but since our ancestors(祖先)in the distant past did not have enough knowledge about science of nature, they cut down all the trees in the areas where they lived and never planted new ones. By and by, the rich surface soil was blown and washed away by strong winds and heavy rains. In the end the lands were turned into useless deserts where nothing could grow.
31. “Rich top soil” in Line 2, Paragraph 2 means ______ and is ________.
- Useless soil……of no use for agriculture
- Soil on the surface of the earth……good for agriculture
- Soil found under the earth……found under the roots of trees
- Dry soil in desert areas……bad for agriculture
32. According to the passage, some desert areas were once ______.
- Fertile lands
- Very wet
- Very cold
- Very dry and useless lands
33. If there were no trees, ______.
- The land would become more fertile
- Heavy rains would clean the tropics
- The rich top soil couldn’t be held back
- The balance of nature is unimportant to man
34. From this passage, we know that ______. A、man can do nothing to keep the balance of nature B、man may take no notice of the balance of nature C、man must do his best to keep the balance of nature D、man must have knowledge of science of nature 35. the best title of this passage is _______.
- The Uses and Importance of Trees
- The Importance of Top Soil
- How Are Rich Lands Turned into Deserts
- Keep the Balance of Nature

Other people have health insurance. They pay insurance premiums each month to insurance companies which then pay for medical expenses when they are needed. In some medical plans, the insurance company is also the medical institution. People regularly pay the hospital directly.

The government has health insurance programs for older people, poor people and those with a long term illness. these programs make medical care available to those without their own health insurance.
