[单选题]<p><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><strong>Part III Reading Comprehension</strong></span></p><p><strong>Section A</strong></p><p><strong>Directions:</strong> There are three passages in this part. For each of them are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.</p><p><strong>Passage One</strong></p><p>Our environment is getting worse and worse with the increase of the world population, which affects the environment in two ways. Firstly, the limited energy resources will be used up much faster. Secondly, the increasing population creates more pollution, another severe problem that needs to be solved. Both problems are long-term ones because action taken now shows their results slowly over many years. They are also urgent delays in action can lead to great suffering and social problems. The question seems to be difficult to handle for most people. However, a person can be a protector of environment in everyday life if he takes action to the environment right now. With the development of technology, cars make transportation easier and quicker than before, but we can't ignore the disadvantages brought to us by more and more cars in use. For we are consuming gasoline(汽油), which is a non-renewable(不可再生的) resource, and will soon be gone. Moreover, the exhausted gas from cars pollutes our air, and our health is therefore threatened by air pollution, which has a big potential effect on our daily life. So we can consider walking, taking buses, carpooling (拼车), instead of driving cars alone. This seems to be a very slow process that can't be so effective if it's taken by a single person. But when more and more people become aware of the importance and positively take it as their personal responsibilities, the condition of the air will be improved to a great extent.</p><p><br/></p><p>51.

[单选题]<p><strong>Passage Two</strong></p><p>Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful conditions. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problem. People  with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.</p><p>Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers</p><p>may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others. In spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support-money aid, material resources, and needed services-that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems,</p><p><br/></p><p>55.

[单选题]<p><strong>Passage Three</strong></p><p>In the Harry Potter films, Hermione Granger is better than her male friends and is considered</p><p>the brightest pupil in her grade. Isn't it often the same in schools of our real world? A great many</p><p>boys fall behind their female classmates. </p><p>“It’s surprising but true that most of the top students have been girls since the primary school. Girls are class leaders, club presidents and the top ones in exams,” said Wang Feixuan, 5, who studies at a Chengdu school. By any measure, Wang herself is a high achiever. She is a top student,a team leader in her schools sports club and a winner in many competitions.</p><p>But why do so many girls outperform their male peers?</p><p>In Sun Yunxiao's latest book Save Our Boys, he points out that the education system is "more</p><p>suited to girls, who are good at memorizing and like to sit quietly and read". Yet he also says that</p><p>girls have to do so much more when they compete with males for honors, top universities and good jobs. They can feel great pressure nearly every day.</p><p>This seems to be the same in most countries in the world. Young women in the United States are also reported to feel the same pressure to be perfect.</p><p>“Let’s took at what we ask our teenage girls for,” says an American professor Stephen Hinshaw in an interview. He thinks that it's no longer enough that a girl does well in school and becomes a caring friend. Girls see images of impossible perfection on TV, on the Internet, and everywhere. Today,s young women must be good learners, good athletes, and fill their after-school</p><p>lives with other activities. But they’re also asked to have the styles and looks of popular stars.
