23、满分 40 分) (A) Im sure Im not the only person my age(15) who hates going to the dentist. Channel 4s late night documentary(纪录片) Open wide last Tuesday was excellent for people like me. However, none of my school friends watched it because they didnt know it was on. Why cant television companies let us
24、 know about such important programmes in advance? This programme was important because it showed how methods for helping people with toothache have developed over the centuries. If you think visiting the dentist today is an uncomfortable experience, just be grateful you didnt live 200 years ago! The
25、n, the programme told us, the only cure for toothache was removing the tooth. There werent any dentists, so the person who cut your hair also pulled out your bad teeth, and there was nothing to stop you feeling the pain. The programme has also completely changed my attitude to looking after my teeth
26、. My parents were always saying to me things like, Dont eat too many sweets, and, Brush your teeth after meals, but I never paid much attention. Now Ive seen what damage sugar can do, especially if I dont use a toothbrush regularly. Im going to change my habits. Many people would benefit from a repe

32、t to the doctor of denist. (B) The most difficult thing for university student Shaun Rogers is opening his classroom door. Shaun cant do this without help because hes only six years old. Hes the youngest person ever to study at Rochester University in New York. Shaun began reading at two, by the age
33、 of five he was regularly corresponding(通信 ) with university professors and will shortly complete his first book .I love learning, says Shaun. My hero is the scientist Albert Einstein because he never combed his hair or wore socks. Psychologists(心理学家) have found it difficult to test Shauns intellige
34、nce(智力) because it goes beyond what they usually measure. Shauns mother first realized her son was different when he kept crying at playschool because he was bored with the childrens games. She started teaching him at home after finding that local schools were not prepared for children who learnt at
35、 Shauns speed. Now Shaun is studying geography at Rochester University and using the Internet to complete his high school studies. However, some psychologists warn that too much study can prevent a child from developing normally. I dont care how brilliant the kid is, six year olds have to play with
36、their friends, says Dr Brian Wood. Mrs Rogers disagrees that her sons time is completely taken up by school work. He loves the violin and has many outdoor interests, such as camping, fishing and swimming, just like other boys of his age. 61.The writer of the text is trying to_. A. advise parents abo
37、ut their childrens education B. compare the development of normal and clever children C. encourage students to enter university at a young age D. interest people in the life of an unusual child 62.A reader can find out from this text_. A. who Shauns friends are B. when Shaun did an intelligence test
38、 C. what Shauns hobbies are D. how well Shaun plays the violin 63.What does Dr Wood think about Shaun? A. He isnt really any cleverer than other six year olds. B. He should spend more time having fun with other children. C. He will have to study harder to succeed at university. D. He can help his fr
39、iends to do better at school. 64.Which of these is Mrs Rogers talking about Shaun? A. “My son gets bored easily if he doesnt have other children to play games or go swimming with him.” B. “My son loves his studies and fortunately there are many children of his own age in his class who share his inte
40、rests.” C. “What makes my son different from other children is that he started studying earlier and learns things much more quickly.” D. “Like most young boys, my son often looks untidy and spends more time using the Internet than doing his homework.” ( C ) Six months have passed since Saddam Hussei
41、ns rule of Iraq was declared over, but in many ways the war is still being fought. Groups opposed to American control of Baghdad have launched a series of suicide bombings across the city. Last Monday around 40 people were killed and more than 200 injured in the bloodiest day since peace was announc
42、ed on May 1. One bomb even attacked the headquarters (总部 ) of the International Red Cross. Dr Jalal F Massa, a doctor whose daughter was injured in the attack on the Red Cross, said: “We, the Iraqi people, who have suffered so much, feel helpless when we see these things. The US occupation has not b
43、een a success.“ In the last three months, there have been several attacks in Iraq causing heavy damage. Not only were US troops targeted, but also UN buildings and workers, religious (宗教的) leaders, foreign officials and members of Iraqs new government. On October 28, the number of US soldiers who ha
44、ve died in Iraq since May 1 rose to 139, one more than the number who died during the war itself. Paul Bremer, the US chief administrator (行政长官) in Iraq, told the Iraqi people the US didnt like being an occupying power and promised they would only stay as long as is necessary. Although, there is tra
45、nsitory government in Iraq, it is controlled by the US and there is no timetable for handing over power to the Iraqis. Many other countries, including France, Germany and Russia, see this as a key part to rebuilding the country. “Only in this way can it be made clear that the present political situa
46、tion in Iraq is a temporary (暂时的 ) one,“ said Gunter Pleuger, Germanys Ambassador (大使) to the UN. Although the UN has agreed to help rebuild the country, it remains divided over what its role should be. While the likes of France and Germany want to see a quick hand-over of power, the US and Britain
47、focus more on removing rebel forces still supporting Saddam. Rosemary Hollis, of the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London, said that whatever the US-led troops choose to do, they must act quickly. “If they do not move soon, they will lose control and there will not be any new government to put in power,“ she warned. “They will be stuck, as happened to America after the war in Viet Nam (越南).“ 65.Which of the following is NOT one of the dis
