第三部分 阅读理解 （共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
　　　　　　　　　　　　             A
Many young people tell me that they want to be writers. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there is a big difference between being a writer and writing. In most cases these people are dreaming of wealth and being famous, not the long hours alone at the typewriter.
When I became a writer, I had no future. What I had was a friend called George. He found me a home. It was cold and had no bathroom. I could only afford a used typewriter. A year later, however, I still hadn’t received a break and began to doubt myself. But I knew I wanted to write. I would keep putting my dream to the test—even though it meant living with fear of failure. This is the shadowland (阴影) of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there. Then one day I got a call from a friend who asked me to be an assistant for $6,000 a year. As the dollars were dancing in my head, something brought me to my sense. “Thanks, but no,” I heard myself saying. After that, I walked around my little room and started to feel like a fool. I felt a little low.
Later, I gradually began to sell my articles. It was after 17 years of being a writer that Roots was published. At once I had the kind of fame and success that few writers ever experienced. The shadows had turned into great sunlight. Before that, it was a long and slow climb out of the shadows.
61. According to the author, writing means_______.
A. being rich and famous
B. having lots of dreams
C. insisting on writing all the time
D. living in difficulties
62. The second paragraph is mainly about ______.
A. the job chance the author ever had
B. the difficulties before the author succeeded
C. the great help from the author’s friends
D. the important choices the author made
63. The underlined word “something” in Paragraph 2 refers to _______.
A. the author’s dream of being a writer
B. the author’s trouble in making money
C. the author’s hard life before success
D. the author’s wish to be successful
64. How did the author feel after he refused the job offer?
A. confident
B. angry
C. excited
D. unhappy

B
People faint（晕倒） when the normal blood supply to the brain is suddenly cut down. This can happen if they are surprised or shocked by sudden news or by something they see. Some people faint if they see others hurt. Some people faint in crowds. Others faint if they are in a room that is hot and stuffy. If a person faints while standing, lay him down. If his face is pale, lift his feet. If he is sitting down when he faints, place his head between his knees. Loosen any tight clothing that might keep him from breathing easily. If possible, place a cold, wet cloth on his forehead.
65. People might faint if they __________.
A. see others hurt B. hear bad news C. are in a crowd D. all of the above
66. If a person faints while standing, ________________.
A. tighten his muscles  B. rub his head.
C. lay him down D. holding him in an upright position
67. If you feel faint when sitting, put your head __________.

C. on you D. to one side or chest
                                   C
Let’s say you took violin lessons all through elementary school, but you haven’t got the instrument out of its case for years. Were all those lessons a waste of your parents’ money because you didn’t become a violinist?
Even though it has been a long time since you played the violin, a new study shows that as little as one year of music training can have a positive impact (影响) on your brain that will last the rest of your life.
In an experiment, researchers compared children who had taken music lessons with those who hadn’t. Laurel Trainor, who studies music and the mind, discovered that the musically-trained children had better brain responses in certain sound recognition exams. Trainor’s findings show the possibility that musical education can actually improve the brain’s hearing cortex (大脑皮层). “The study’s results show that music training affects attention and memory, and helps children develop learning skills. In this way music training might lead to better learning across a number of fields,” Trainor said in a statement. The effects of music education are even more obvious on children with difficulty in reading and writing and other language-related disabilities.
So, whether you can play a good piece of music or not, it’s likely that your years of music lessons have prepared your brain for all the speeches, emails, and adult conversations that are part of your life today. We should help make sure that children today have the same opportunities for music, and help out by volunteering with or donating instrument to your school’s music education department.
68. Compared with children who haven’t taken music lessons, musically-trained children_______.
A. sing better  B. do better in exams
C. recognize sounds better D. response more quickly
69. According to the study, we know musical education can______.
A. change the structure of the brain
B. improve children’s learning skills.
C. help children focus their attention.
D. provide more memorizing methods.
70. What can we learn from the text?
A. Adults should also take some music lessons.
B. The author has taken violin lessons when he was young.
C. Even a day’s music training can affect the human brain.
D. Music training can also help children with certain disabilities.

第三节 书面表达  (15)
Dear editor，
Recently we have had a heated discussion on whether students should make friends on line. Some people say yes. The internet helps make many friends. Chatting on line, students can more freely express their feelings and opinions, and even get help with their foreign language studies.
Others, however, think students should not. They say making friends on line is a waste of time, which should be spent more meaningfully on study. Besides, some students get cheated on line.
It is my opinion that students should place their study, health and safety before other things. As for friendship, we can readily find it in our classmates and other people around us.
