Frederick Law Olmsted (1822 - 1903), a Connecticut farm boy, saw his first public park in Liverpool, England, as he accompanied his brother on a walking tour. He was impressed by the park’s winding paths, open fields, lakes and bridges. Perhaps the most wonderful things of all was that the park was open to everyone.
A moment beginning in 1840 to set aside park land on New York City’s Manhattan Island has successful result in 1856 with the purchase of 840 acres of rocky and swampy (沼澤) land, bought with about $ 5 million in state funds. Olmsted’s chance meeting with a project organizer led to his applying for the job of park manager. In 1857 Olmsted was appointed manager of the proposed park, and the clearing of the site began.
Calvert Vaux, a British architect, asked Olmsted to collaborate with him on a park design, and Olmsted agreed. Vaux saw the park as a work of art, while Olmsted saw the park as a place for people to escape the noise of the city. Together they invented a plan that would give the persons and animals living in the city a quiet, green park and would also preserve and increase the good qualities of the natural features of the land. The commissioners voted in favor of Vaux and Olmsted’s plan, and in 1858, the two became the official designers of New York City’s Central Park.
It took millions of cartloads of topsoil to build Central park’s gentle slopes, shady glens, and steep, rocky ravines. Five million trees were planted, a water – supply system was laid, and bridges, arches, roads and paths were constructed. The park officially opened in 1876, and today, well over a century later, people still escape the noise of the city in Olmsted and Vaux’s great work of art.
53.What is the text mainly about?
A.A history of the planning of Central park.
B.An engineering plan for Central Park.
C.A biography of Frederick Law Olmsted.
D.A guided walking tour of Central park.
54.Olmsted became manager of Central Park because of         .
A.his friendship with Calvert Vaux
B.his hard work in clearing the land
C.his winning a design competition
D.a(chǎn) chance meeting with one of the park’s organizers
55.The underlined word “collaborate” in the third paragraph means         .
A.disagree    B.comment   C.vote   D.work together
56.Which of the following is true about Central Park?
A.It is out of date nowadays.       
B.The designers came from the same country.
C.It is an old park in America.      
D.It is only for people who can well afford it.

第三部分:閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分,滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
When I worked in Swaziland, one day we went to an orphanage. There we found a beautiful little girl named Tanzile. I gave her a sweet and she said something back to me in Si-swati, which the nurse next to me translated, “She wants another one — to give to her little sister.” I said “of course”. When we were going to leave, we passed by Tanzile’s house to say goodbye. To our surprise she seemed to be holding on to that extra sweet I had given her. I remember saying to the nurse “this little darling is clever — she has taken two for herself.”
But the nurse told us, “Tanzile is 7 now. Two years ago her mum and dad both died of AIDS. She was separated from her sister who was three at the time. Tanzile has not laid eyes on her since. But from then on whenever Tanzile receives anything from anyone, including food — she refuses to accept it, unless they give her two.” In fact, in the little mud hut where she lives, we find a pile of old things which she has been collecting to give to her sister one day.
People sometimes look at faces of African children and think that they are somehow different from our kids — that somehow they don’t feel pain or love. But that is not true. Their pain is deep. And so is their love. I can still remember the nurse trying to convince her that “if someone gives you food, you must accept it — even if it is only one piece and not two — for your own health.” And it was so hard for us to keep the tears from our eyes as she shook her head. Her hope and her love was all that she had. It mattered more than anything else. When I returned home that day, I was shocked to find that this was not an isolated story but others in the hospital knew of orphans just like Tanzile — waiting with a little pile of things in their hut, for their lovers who they haven’t seen so long.
I think of that old song — “when we’re hungry, love will keep us alive.”
56. From the passage we can learn Tanzile__________.
A. is very clever        B. knows her sister has died
C. has stored a lot for her sister       D. doesn’t like sweets
57. How old was her sister when the author met with Tanzile?
A. Three years old.    B. Four years old.
C. Five years old.     D. Six years old.
58. What has the author learned from her experience in Africa?
A. Love is more important in life than anything else.
B. African children are different in a way.
C. African children should be treated fairly.
D. We should express our love in time.
59. The best title for the passage would be __________
A. Give every child two sweets      B. Tanzile’s love for her sister
C. One for my sister               D. Change your attitude to African children

C
While they were almost unknown twenty years ago, it seems that mobile phones these days are part of everyone’s life. However, as with other inventions such as the television and the computer, they are a double-edged sword, inviting both supporters and opponents, especially in regard to their use in public places like restaurants and cinemas.
One of the strongest arguments in favor of forbidding mobiles in public places is the trouble they cause to other people. For example, although we are often asked to turn off our phones when in a cinema, the film that we are watching is often interrupted by the sound of at least five rings. To make it even worse, some people insist on continuing their conversation, even though hundreds of people can hear what they say, which often drowns out the voice from the film. As a result, many people would welcome a ban on mobile phones in places where they might disturb other people.
On the other hand, there are a number of arguments against such a ban. It is difficult to stop people bringing with them their mobile phones in public places, making it almost impossible to call for a ban. Some people would see this as an infringement(侵犯)of their rights, while other people would say they need them in case of an emergency. Despite being asked to silence their phones, some people insist on leaving them on.
It seems to me that a ban on mobile phones would not have any result in the end. People will find a way to escape a ban. Nevertheless, people should be discouraged from using them in public places, unless it is highly necessary. They should be made to know that it is bad manners to use them in certain places or at certain times. Of course, there will always be someone who thinks their call is more important than others’ peace and quiet!
53. Why are many people for a ban on the use of mobiles in public places?
A. Because hundreds of people can hear them talk.
B. Because they are asked to turn off their mobiles.
C. Because other people’s peace and quiet is more important.
D. Because many people find a way to escape a ban.
54. Among those who are against a ban, some believe that __________.
A. they can turn off their mobiles when it is necessary
B. it is their right to use their mobiles in public places
C. a ban on mobiles would not have any result
D. they can silence their mobiles when in public places
55. The author of the text thinks that __________.
A. mobiles can be used in case of an emergency in public places
B. mobiles should be turned off in public places
C. mobiles should not be banned in public places
D. it is possible to ban the use of mobiles in public places
56. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Disadvantages of Mobiles in Public Places
B. Why Not Ban Mobiles in Public Places?
C. Should Mobiles Be Banned in Public Places?
D. Manners for Mobile Users in Public Places

C
An old story goes as follows.King took another wife, who had a magic mirror. The queen often asked the mirror, “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of all?” The mirror answered “You, Queen, are the fairest of all,” and the Queen was content, because she knew the mirror could speak nothing but the truth.
Inspired by the fairy tale, a New York-based designer has come up with a mirror equipped with infrared (紅外線的) technology that sends a live video to any cell phone, e-mail account or personal digital assistant (PDA) device selected by a shopper.
Christopher Enrich, chief technology officer for digital design company IconNicholson, said putting these mirrors outside store fitting rooms meant women could go shopping with their friends — even they are far apart.
“She could be in Paris, your mom, watching you try on your wedding dress(while you are in New York),” Enright told Reuters Tuesday as he exhibited the interactive (互動的)mirror at a  trade show.
Using the interactive mirror, a shopper’s friends can then text message back with comments about the clothes being tried on.
Shoppers can also use touch screens on the three-paneled (面板) mirror to choose matching shoes or accessories (配件), Enright said.
The left-hand panel has a touch screen that allows a customer to select a different suit from a database, and then see how it looks on her in the center mirror without physically putting the clothes on.
The right-hand panel has a screen offering more information about other shoes or accessories the shopper also might like.
Enright said teenagers were already using their cell phones to send pictures to their friends when they were out shopping.“This is ...a(chǎn)dding technology to something we already do,” Enright said.
66.The interactive mirror mentioned in the text ______.
A.involves modern technology and great advantages
B.a(chǎn)llows women shoppers to select clothes at home
C.was displayed and sold well at a trade show
D.spares people’s trouble of going shopping
67.Which is the most possible order according to the passage?
① Shoppers’ friends or relatives text message back with comments.
② Mirrors send a live video to any mobile phone, e-mail account or PDA.
③ Consumers make a final decision.
④ Shoppers try on the clothes.
A.①②③④        B.④③②①  C.②①④③    D.④②①③
68.From the passage we can conclude that ______.
A.the interactive mirrors will surely promote sales on a large scale
B.the designer of the mirror has profited a lot from the invention
C.the new shopping technology would cater to fashion hunters
D.the digital mirrors will replace all traditional fitting-rooms
69.Which of the following descriptions about the touch screen is true?
A.It enables a shopper to order a suit which is not available now.
B.It allows shoppers to “try on” chosen clothes without putting them on.
C.The touch screens are distributed on three more panels.
D.It provides information merely about shoes and accessories.
70.What is the text mainly about?
A.The great influence of a fairy tale.
B.The development of the interactive mirror.
C.Working principles of a digital product.
D.Technology added to traditional products.
