8、二、阅读理解（共两节，满分 40 分）第一节（共 15 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 30 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AOnce upon a time, a man was walking on a mountain when he found an incredible cave with all kinds of treasure inside it. So he gave up his job, his home, and his friends, and spent all his time guarding the cave.He
9、 was so dedicated to it that he hardly ate or drank, and before long he fell ill. One day, when he could hardly move at all, he decided to share the treasure.He crawled into the cave to get a handful of jewels, but discovered, to his horror, that it was empty except for a small emerald (绿宝石). The ma
10、n took it and gave it to the first person to come by, a woman.Then an old man came by. “What bad luck!” the man said. “Just a moment ago I gave a woman the last of the treasure I was guarding.”“Are you sure there is nothing left?” the old man asked. The man took him into the cave, where they found a
11、 chest with jewels and some bags of gold. The man was shocked, and the old man explained to him, “At last! At last! At last someone has broken the spell of this cave. This is the Cave of Treasure, and youre the first to have passed its great test. Many have dedicated their lives to this cave, only t
12、o end up realizing there was nothing here ”“And why does this happen?” the man asked.“This magic cave has only as many riches as your own heart. When someone discovers it, the cave fills with the treasure they bring with them, but later, when they have devoted themselves to guarding the treasure, th
13、eir hearts become empty, as does the cave. The only 3way to fill it is by filling your heart with all that is good, as you did by giving the woman that last jewel.”From that day on, the man understood that it was better to share than to keep. Thanks to the cave and the old man, he became noble and g
14、enerous.21.Why did the man give up his job, home and friends?A. Because he possessed a variety of treasure.B. Because he devoted himself to a great test.C. Because he had to guard the treasure cave.D. Because he wanted to find the treasure cave.22.What did the man find when he showed his cave to the
15、 old man? A. All kinds of treasure. B. A chest with jewels and gold.C. A small emerald. D. A handful of jewels. 23.What do we learn about the people who dedicated their lives to the cave before?A. They all found the cave empty at last.B. The old man freed them from its spell.C. They all filled the c
16、ave with the treasure they had.D. They thought it was better to share than to enjoy the treasure alone.24.What can we learn from the text?A. Different people have different views.B. Treasure only belongs to those who possess it.C. Some people never learn what is really valuable.D. Purely material th
17、ings cannot make us truly wealthy.BWalt Disney is credited for creating such wonderful things as Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse. However, he cannot take the credit for creating other well-loved characters, such as Cinderella and Snow White. They are almost automatically associated with Disney because
18、Disney turned old fables(寓言) into cartoon movies.The original Cinderella varies very much from the Disney version we know today. It started off with the girl mourning her mothers death and going to her tomb three times a day. In addition, there were only birds that helped Cinderella; there was no su
19、ch thing as a fairy godmother or helpful mice, nor was there mention of a horse and carriage.The stepsisters were cruel: they always threw Cinderellas food into the ashes of the fire and made her sleep on the ashes on the floor, hence（因此）her name.In the original story, the kings ball actually lasted
20、 for three days. With the help of the birds, the girl, beautifully dressed, danced with the prince on all three nights and the prince fell in love with her. However, she broke away from him to rush back home each night. On the last night, the prince placed something sticky on the stairs; as Cinderel
21、la made her escape, a shoe got stuck on it.Here now is where the story becomes unpleasant: when the prince went to the house looking for the girl whose foot fit the shoe, the wicked(邪恶的) stepmother told one of her two daughters to cut off her big toe to fit into the shoe. The daughter did as told. S
22、o the prince took her away to be his bride. But，when they passed the tomb of Cinderellas mother, the birds called out to the prince,4“Turn and peep, theres blood within the shoe;The shoe is too small, the true bride waits for you.” Realizing he had been tricked, the prince returned the daughter to h
23、er mother. The other then had to cut off part of her heel in order to fit into the shoe, with the same result. Only Cinderellas foot fit perfectly and so the prince chose to marry her. The story ends with the wedding day: as Cinderellas two stepsisters followed her, pretending to be devoted to her s
24、o that they could enjoy the kings riches, two birds flew by and plucked(啄) out their eyes. Because of their wickedness and falsehood, they had to spend the rest of their days blind.The original Cinderella is so different from the Disney version. Thank goodness Disney made such changes; it indeed was
25、 a wise move.25.What dose the underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refer to?A. Such wonderful things.B. Other well-loved characters.C. Old fables.D. Cartoon movies.26.How did Cinderella get her name?A. The birds came up with it.B. It was given by Disney.C. It came from the word “ash”.D. She
26、 got it from her mother.27.Which of the following is TRUE according to the original story?A. Helpful mice got Cinderella a beautiful dress.B. The ball was held to celebrate the princes wedding.C. Cinderella left her shoe on the stairs on purpose.D. The birds told the prince that he had been cheated.
27、28.The moral of the original story is that _.A. a wicked person cannot escape punishment.B. a devoted person certainly deserves respect.C. a well-behaved child earns a great reward.D. a dishonest child cannot get mother love.29.What does the author think of the Disney version?A.Excellent. B. Ordinar
28、y C. Dull. D. Ridiculous.CHowever wealthy we may be, we can never find enough hours in the day to do everything we want. Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost, which simply refers to whether someones time or money could be better spent on something else.Every hour
29、 of our time has a value. For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another, or be sleeping or watching a film. Each of these options has a different opportunity costnamely, what they cost us in missed opportunities.Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are
30、expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium. Why not, you might reason, watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends? Thisthe alternative use of your cash and timeis the opportunity cost.5For economists, every decision i
31、s made by knowledge of what one must for gonein terms of money and enjoymentin order to take it up. By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on, you ought to be able to make better-informed, more reasonable decisions. Consider that most famous economic rule of all: th
32、eres no such thing as a free lunch. Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free, the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging: imagine spending your entire life
33、calculating whether your time would be better spent else where doing something more profitable or enjoyable. Yet, in a sense its human nature to do precisely thatwe assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.In the business world, a popular phrase is “value for money.” People
34、want their cash to go as far as possible. However, another is fast obtaining an advantage: “value for time.” The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of hours we can devote to something, so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time. By reading this passage you are
35、 giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities, such as sleeping and eating. In return, however, this passage will help you to think like an economist, closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions.30.According to the passage, the concept of “opportu
36、nity cost” is applied to _.A. making more money B. taking more opportunitiesC. reducing missed opportunities D. weighing the choice of opportunities31.The “leftover . time” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to the time _.A. spared for watching the match at home B. taken to have dinner with friendsC. sp
37、ent on the way to and from the match D. saved from not going to watch the match32.What are forgone opportunities?A. Opportunities you forget in decision-making. B. Opportunities you give up for better ones.C. Opportunities you miss accidentally. D. Opportunities you make up for.DShould Smoking Be Ba

39、t really care if people smoke around me.Leave them alone.They have the right，and let them be.Masako Imai，24 6Phone engineer(Japanese smoker)I smoke but I think it should be banned.I really want to give up and I think that if everywhere became nonsmoking，it would make it much easier for me to do so.L

41、ncluding me，to smoke less.Im from London，and although smokers were against the ban at first，it now feels totally normal.Chris Kennedy，23Student(British nonsmoker)Walking past a smoking area，like the one by Hachilo，feels and smells absolutely awful.At least if smokers could smoke anywhere，then it wou
