三、阅读理解(共13小题;每小题2分,满分26分)
B
Cats are the most popular pets among Americans. So it is not surprising that there are a lot of expressions about cats. Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries (金丝雀). If someone looks
very proud and satisfied with himself, we say “he looks like the cat that ate the canary.”
Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches. So if you “play cat and mouse”
with someone, it means that you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person. For example, a girl might offer something sweet to her little brother and then take it away when he reaches for it.
Americans might say that something is “the cat’s miaow” or “the cat’s pajamas (睡衣)” to
describe something that is the best or finest. “A copycat” is someone who acts just like someone else
or copies another person’s work. “A fat cat” is a person with a lot of money.
If you tell about something that is supposed to be a secret, we say you “let the cat out of the bag”.
If you are not able to speak or answer a question, someone might ask you if “the cat has got your
tongue (舌头)”.
Have you ever watched children in a classroom when their teacher leaves for a few minutes? “When the cat’s away, the mice will play” means people sometimes act badly when there is no
supervision (监管).
You may have heard the expression “curiosity killed the cat”. This means caring too much about
things that are not your business might cause problems.
If you have ever had cats as pets, you know it is difficult to train them or to get them to do something. Cats are not like Sheep or cows that can be moved in a group. So we say a difficult or impossible job is like “herding (放牧) cats “
( ) 24. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The expression “a fat cat” is used to describe someone who is very fat.
B. The expression “play cat and mouse” usually means “play tricks on others”.
C. It is more difficult to keep sheep or cows than cats.
D. There are more expressions about cats than those about dogs.
( ) 25. In which of the following situations do we most probably use the expression “curiosity
killed the cat”?
A. Someone always asked a lady her age or weight and it made her angry.
B. Someone promised to keep a secret but he failed to do so.

secrets” to success? The answers to Have successful people ever felt sad? Do they have any “
these questions can be found in US president Barack Obama’s “Back to School” speech. Here is
) from his speech. an excerpt (摘录
…
I know that sometimes, you get the sense that you can be rich and successful without any hard
work,that your ticket to success is through rapping (饶舌音乐) or basketball or being a TV star, when chances are, you’re not going to be any of those things.
But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won’t love every subject you study. Not all the
homework will seem completely important to your life right this minute. And you may not succeed
at everything the first time you try.
That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most
failures. JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was turned down 12 times before it finally came out.
Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and
missed thousands of shots (投篮) during his career. But he once said, “I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
These people succeeded because they understand that you can’t let your failures beat you,you
have to let them teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.
No one’s born being good at things. You become good at things through hard work.
Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every
day. Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a sign of strength. It shows you have the courage to admit(承认) when you don’t know something, and to learn something new.
And even when you’re struggling, even when you’re discouraged (泄气), and you feel like other
people have given up on you,don’t ever give up on yourself. Because when you give up on
yourself, you give up on your country.
( ) 27. Why does Barack Obama mention (提到) JK Rowling and Michael Jordan in the fourth
paragraph?
A. To compare these two famous persons.
B. To explain that writing and sports are difficult skills.
C. To show that the two persons were treated unfairly.
D. To prove that failure is the mother of success.
( ) 28. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. No one can be successful without working hard.
B. Failure can be good if you treat it in a right way.
C. Those who believe in themselves shouldn’t ask others for help.
D. One should try his best to make his dream come true.
( ) 29. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?
A. One should change his mind when others give honest advice to him.
B. One should believe in himself no matter what difficulty he is faced with.
C. One doesn’t have to work hard when he has failed several times.
D. One doesn’t have to take others’ advice when they get away from him.
