第二部分：閱读理解（35分）

I. 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。（30分）

（A）

Have you ever made contact with the creative spirit， that certain something hard to describe， but full of good—and sometimes great—ideas？ It is more than an occasional great thought. When we feel the moving of the creative spirit， it brings to life a style of being： a lifetime filled with the desire to invent， to explore new ways of doing things， and to turn dreams into reality.

That flash of inspiration is the final moment of a process marked by unique stages—the basic steps in creative problem-solving. The first stage is preparation， when you look for any information that might be important. It’s when you let your imagination run free.

But one barrier（障碍） is the inside voice of judgment that locks up our creative spirit within the limits of what we think acceptable. It’s the voice that whispers to you， “They’ll think I’m foolish，” or “That will never work.” But we can learn to recognize this voice of judgment and have the courage to discount its unhelpful advice.

Once you have thought about all the relevant （相关的） pieces and pushed your mind to the limits， you can let the problem remain and take in all you have gathered. It’s a stage when much of what goes on occurs outside your focused awareness. As the saying goes， “You sleep on it.”

We are more open to creative thoughts from the unknowing mind when we are not really thinking of anything. That is why daydreams are so useful in the search for creativity. Anytime you can just daydream and relax is useful in the creative process： a shower， long drives， a quiet walk， etc.

With luck， daydreaming will lead to a light turning on above your head， when all of a sudden the answer will come to you as if from nowhere. This is the popular stage—the one that usually gets all the glory and attention， the moment that people sweat and long for， the feeling “This is it！” But the thought alone is still not a creative act. The final stage is translation， when you take your creative thought and transform it into action; it becomes useful to you and others.

1. In Paragraph 1， “the moving of the creative spirit” probably means ____.

A. preparation         B. exploration               C. problem-solving   D. inspiration

2. What can we learn from the fifth paragraph？

A. The unknowing mind is very difficult for us to understand.

B. Creativity arrives when we aren’t focused on any one thing.

C. Daydreaming is useless and has nothing to do with creativity.

D. Showers， long drives and quiet walk are good for our bodies.

3. When does creativity become useful to us and others？

A. When thought is turned into action.           B. When people understand our ideas.

C. When the popular stage is reached.          D. When we think “This is it！”.

4. Which of the following would the author probably support？

A. The creative spirit means an occasional great thought.

B. Others’ voice of judgment allows us to ignore barriers.

C. Creative problem-solving calls for barrier-free imagination.

D. Daydreaming is sure to bring a sudden answer to a problem.

（B）

Which is safer—staying at home， traveling to work on public transport， or working in the office？ Surprisingly， each of these carries the same risk， which is very low. However， what about

flying compared to working in the chemical industry？ Unfortunately， the former is 65 times riskier than the latter！ In fact， the accident rate of workers in the chemical industry is less than that of almost any of human activity， and almost as safe as staying at home.

The trouble with the chemical industry is that when things go wrong they often cause death to those living nearby. It is this which makes chemical accidents so newsworthy. Fortunately， they are extremely rare. The most famous ones happened at Texas City （1947）， Flixborough （1974）， Seveso （1976）， Pemex （1984） and Bhopal （1984）.

Some of these are always in the minds of the people even though the loss of life was small. No one died at Seveso， and only 28 workers at Flixborough. The worst accident of all was Bhopal， where up to 3，000 were killed. The Texas City explosion of fertilizer killed 552. The Pemex fire at a storage（儲藏） plant for natural gas in the suburbs of Mexico City took 542 lives， just a month before the unfortunate event at Bhopal.

Some experts have discussed these accidents and used each accident to illustrate a particular danger. Thus the Texas City explosion was caused by tons of ammonium nitrate （硝酸铵）， which

is safe unless stored in great quantity. The  Flixborough fireball was the fault of management， which took risks to keep production going during essential repairs. The Seveso accident shows what happens if the local authorities lack knowledge of the danger on their doorstep. When the poisonous gas drifted over the town， local leaders were incapable of taking effective action. The Pemex fire was made worse by an overloaded site in an overcrowded suburb. The fire set off a chain reaction os exploding storage tanks. Yet， by a miracle， the two largest tanks did not explode.Had these caught fire， then 3，000 strong rescue team and fire fighters would all have died.

5. Which of the following statements is TRUE？

A. Working at the office is safer than staying at home.

B. Traverlling to work on public transport is safer than working at the office.

C. Staying at home is safer than working in the chemical industry.

D. Working in the chemical industry is safer than traveling by air.

6. Chemical accidents are usually important enough to be reported as news because ____.

A. they are very rare                            B. they often cause loss of life

C. they always occur in big cities                D. they arouse the interest of all the readers

7. From the discussion among some experts we may conclude that ____.

A. to avoid any accidents we should not repair the facilities in chemical industry

B. the local authorities should not be concerned with the production of the chemical industry

C. all these accidents could have been avoided or controlled if effective measure had been taken

D. natural gas stored in very large tanks is always safe

（C）

The Chinese word “Shanzhai” means a small mountain village， but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes（假貨）， after “Shanzhai Cell-phones” produced by small workshops in southern China， became popular in the mainland market over the past few years. Besides “Shanzhai” electronic products， there are “Shanzhai” movies， “Shanzhai” stars and even a “Shanzhai” Spring Festival Gala， a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year’s Eve.

“Shanzhai” has become a culture of its own， meaning anything that imitates something famous. In Chongqing， “Shanzhai” version “Bird’s Nest” woven by farmers with bamboo attracts wide attention and the “Shanzhai” version “Water Cube” is popular with tourists， too. Both are copies

of the famous Olympics buildings in Beijing.

A literature critic， said that taking the “Shanzhai” Gala as an example， when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience， the “Shanzhai” version appears timely to attract people. “Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation，

‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological demands of common people and could be a comfort to their minds.”

To the mainstream culture， the rise of “Shanzhai” culture is a challenge as well as a motivation. People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is an ideal situation and it is for the public to choose.

8. Which of the following does NOT have a “Shanzhai” version so far according to the writer？

A. electronic products                           B. movies and stars

C. Spring Festival Gala                           D. daily goods

9. According to the passage， “Shanzhai” culture refers to ____.

A. the action that a person imitates famous people

B. products with poor techniques and quality

C. anything that copies something well-known

D. anything of poor quality

10. We can infer that mainstream culture ____.

A. is held back by “Shanzhai” culture

B. is the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture

C. will be replaced by “Shanzhai” culture

D. may develop faster because of the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture

11. Compared with “Shanzhai” Gala， the traditional CCTV program may not ____.

A. have advanced techniques and operation  B. have more famous stars

C. be more educational and entertaining D. arouse strong interest among many people

12. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage？

A. “Shanzhai” culture will definitely disappear

B. “Shanzhai” culture takes on life of its own

C. “Shanzhai” culture—the mainstream culture

D. “Shanzhai” culture should be banned

（D）

Everyone wants something in life， love， money， success... Yet too many people fail to achieve their goals， and nearly all of them are for the same reason.

It’s true that terrible things do happen to people during their lives， though no fault of their own， which may make them feel upset. Generally speaking， however， getting what you really want out of life is just a matter of the following three simple steps.

Firstly， you have to decide what it is you want the most. But do not make a list of wishes; try to focus on one thing at a time. If you’re not sure about where you want to go， you’d better think it over first and not hurry to perform.

Secondly， create an action plan. This will be your map for getting from “____“ to

“where you want to go”. You know what you want， and what steps you are going to take to get it. For example， if you want a better job， start with a skills assessment （评估） and maybe some extra training. Then you’ll need to sell yourself and your skills either to your present employer or to a new employer.

Other goals will require a bit more thought. Some will really get you lost without a clue of how to get there. Not to worry， though， books， biographies and such， can be of great help.

The third and final step is to execute. Do what you planned. Take the steps you outlined on your road map and keep going on all the time. If you run into some people who are against you， simply ignore them.

Never give up the goal. Keep pushing. Whatever you do， do not lose heart until you have what you desire in your hands. Never think that you can’t turn your dream into a reality.

13. What does the author want to tell readers in this article？ （No more than 10 words）

14. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words. （No more than 5 words）

Lots of people give you advice on overcoming （克服） fear. _1_ However， I want to tell you that a world without fear would be more dangerous， less rewarding. So we want to treat fear as a friend. Here are three reasons.

_2_ Think about it. Do you get more nervous when you meet the girl （or guy） of your dreams？ Which is more fearful， talking to the boss of your company or to some of your friends？

_3_ If you didn’t have fear to guide you， you might not know that！ Not so bad， right？

Next， fear encourages us to take action. Fear is a call to action. In the past， our ancestors didn’t run away in fear when they saw a tiger running toward them but tried to kill it for food. Now， most of us don’t face serious danger like hungry tigers every day， but we do face serious bosses or public speaking. So， what can we do？ _4_

Lastly， fear lets you know you are alive. Why do we like roller coasters？ _5_ Same for horror movies.

So fear can guide you towards what’s important for you and encourage you to take action to improve. Don’t we all need that kind of friend？

A. Don’t fear to be wrong.

B. It frightens us in a mostly safe way.

C. Imagine what life would be like without fear.

D. The first is that fear is an excellent guide to opportunity.

I Passed My Drive Test！

I’d been 16 for six days and was already prepared to deal with failure.

I remember that， when my mum _1_ me that morning， her voice wasn’t as screaming as it usually was. She had been _2_ for more than one hour getting everything ready， and I could feel she was _3_ me at the same time.

I stayed in bed for a few minutes. I was _4_ to leave its warmth and _5_ to face the suffering that I’d rather let myself forget for the past months. Finally， I dragged myself _6_.

The first thing I thought of after getting up was to _7_. I went to the kitchen and prepared a breakfast that was fairly _8_， but was still too big for my appetite（食欲，胃口） that day.
