  使用省略应明确省略的原则和范围,被省略的成分或词语通常是不言而喻的或是构成完整的语法结构所必须的,正确运用不仅无损于句子的完整,而且能使句子简洁明了。 以下按英语句子的三种类型对省略进行归纳:

  -Well, he ought to have. 噢,他应当完成。

  ② 如果不定式是完成被动式,要保留。

III.阅读理解

(A)

The majority of astronauts(宇航员)from America have been men. At the start of the space programme there was strong resistance from some people against having women in space. However, some women were very keen to become astronauts and in the end they were successful. In 1978, NASA began the first training programme for women astronauts.

Judy Resnick and Christa McAuliffe were both astronauts and they were both women, but in many other ways they were very different. Both of them were on Flight STS-5L-L. Judy Resnick was born in 1949 and studied engineering at university and went on to obtain a PhD in 1977. She was a member of the first group of women selected for astronaut training in 1978, and in 1984, she became the second woman in space. During that flight, she helped to launch three new satellites and she carried out a programme of research. She was, in many ways, a professional astronaut whose whole life was devoted to space travel.

Christa McAuliffe was born in 1948 and she was an astronaut almost by accident. In 1984, NASA decided to find a teacher who could accompany astronauts into space. They hoped that she would be able to communicate with students from space and encourage every one of them to be interested in space travel. Christa was a secondary teacher in history and social studies. She was a gifted teacher and she was selected from over 11,000 applicants to go on flight STS-51-L. She was also a very good communicator and she immediately established a very good relationship with the news media(radio, television and newspapers). It was partly because of this that there was a great deal of interest and excitement about the flight. Thousands of students in schools and universities all around the country were looking forward to communicating with Christa in space. Millions of people were watching her flight with great interest. It is partly because of the excitement over McAuliffe's place in the flight that the disaster in 1986 had such an effect on people.

1. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that ___________.

A. Judy was against the idea of having women in space at first

B. Judy was the first woman selected for astronaut training

C. Judy helped to launch three new satellites at the age of 35

D. Judy carried out a programme during her second space travel

2. Christa McAuliffe was chosen for training because _______.

A. she was popular with the news media

B. she expected to give history lessons in space

C. she was an excellent teacher and communicator

D. she made the students in space very excited

3. The reason why there was great interest in Flight STS-51-L is that ________.

A. both Christa and Judy got PhD degrees in the same year

B. a young secondary school teacher was on the flight

C. students were going to learn more about space travel

D. it was the first time for women to travel in space

4. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Two Astronauts B. Flight STS-51-L

C. Traveling in Space D. The Training Programme

A higher reading rate, with no loss of comprehension, will help you in other subjects as well as in English, and the general principles apply to any language. Naturally, you will not read every book at the same speed. You would expect to read a newspaper, for example, much more rapidly than a physics or economics textbook – but you can raise your average reading speed over the whole range of materials you wish to cover so that the percentage gained will be the same whatever kind of reading you are concerned with.

The reading passages which follow are all of an average level of difficulty for your stage of instruction. They are all about five hundred words long. They are about topics of general interest which do not require a great deal of specialized knowledge. Thus they fall between the kind of reading you might find in your textbooks and the much less demanding kind you will find in a newspaper or light novel. If you read this kind of English, with understanding at four hundred words per minute, you might skim (浏览) through a newspaper at perhaps 650 – 700 , while with a difficult textbook you might drop to two hundred or two hundred and fifty.

Perhaps you would like to know what reading speeds are common among native English-speaking university students and how those speeds can be improved. Tests in Minnesota, U.S.A, for example, have shown that students without special training can read English of average difficulty, for example, Tolstoy’s War and Peace in translation, at speeds of between 240 and 250 words per minute with about seventy percent comprehension. Students in Minnesota claim that after twelve half – hour lessons, once a week, the reading speed can be increased, with no loss of comprehension, to around five hundred words per minute.

5.According to the passage, the purpose of effective reading with higher speed is most likely to help you .

A.only in your reading of a physics textbook

B.improve your understanding of an economics textbook

C.not only in your language study but also in other subjects

D.choose the suitable materials to read

6.Which of the following does not describe the types of reading materials mentioned in the second paragraph?

A.Those beyond one’s reading comprehension

B.Those concerned with common knowledge

C.Those without much demand for specialized knowledge

D.Those with the length of about five hundred words

7.The average speed of untrained native speakers in the University of Minnesota is _____.

A.about 300 words per minute

B.about 245 words per minute

C.about 650 – 770 words per minute

D.about 500 words per minute

8.According to the passage, how fast can you expect to read after you have attended twelve half – hour lessons in the University of Minnesota?

A.You can increase your reading speed by three times

B.No real increase in reading speed can be achieved

C.Yon can increase your reading speed by four times

D.You can double your reading speed.

C

New findings suggest that brainy card games such as contract bridge may temporarily(临时)raise production of a key blood cell including in fighting off illness. After 90 minutes of play, bridge players had increased levels of immune(免疫)cells, according to research reported last week.

A researcher, Diamond, studied bridge players from a women’s bridge club. She chose bridge players because the game includes skills stimulating(刺激)a part of the brain called the dorsolateral cortex. Earlier animal research suggests that this part of the brain may play a role in the immune system.

The findings are based on blood samples drawn from 12 women players. Their blood samples showed a rise in levels of white blood cells called T cells after they played bridge for 90 minutes. T cells are produced by the thymus gland(胸腺)and used by the immune system against diseases.

The T cell count jumped significantly in eight of the bridge players, and slightly in the other four.

The findings contribute to the field of neuroimmunology(神经免疫学),whose name reflects the fact that the nervous system and the immune system are not considered separate and isolated(独立的)systems. What isn’t clear is whether the help to the immune system from an activity like contract bridge is lasting or temporary. It is also not clear whether the increase in T cells could finally be targeted against special illnesses.

9.Playing bridge can help one to fight off diseases because it can ______ .

A.raise production of a key blood cell B.make people joyful

C.aid digestion D.make break away from the bad habits

10.Diamond chose to study bridge players for the research because ______ .

A.the players are good friends of hers

B.she loves playing bridge

C.this game stimulates a part of the brain that has something to do with immune system

D.she is a clever manager, who operates her bridge club well

11.A T cell is ______ cell.

A.brain

B.white blood

C.red blood

D.a kind of dangerous blood

12.Which of the following is TRUE according to this article?

A.The immune system and the brain system used to be considered separate and isolated systems.

B.The help to the immune system that is brought about by playing bridge can last for a long time.

C.Cortex is a kind of blood cell.

D.The new findings are impossible.

Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee(裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don’t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.

Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.

It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.
