III. 閱讀理解(共 20 小題，每小題 2. 5 分;滿分 50 分)
閱讀下列短文，并做每篇后面的題目。從四個選項中，選出能回答所提問題或完成所給句子的最
佳答案。
A
A self-made billionaire who created the world’s largest home-delivery pizza network has sold up to
devote his time --and virtually all his money--to charity(慈善).
Tom Monaghan, the founder of Domino’s Pizza, has got rid of his helicopter, yacht, aircraft, radio
stations, a car collection and an island resort on Lake Huron, taking them as“distraction”
The money from those sales has gone to a host of charities, along with $85 million from selling the
Chicago Cubs baseball team six years ago. Mr Monaghan has now sold more than 90 percent of his
45
stake(股份)in Domino’s for $1billion.
“At the age of 61, thinking over my life and the goals I have yet to achieve, I have decided to retire
from my active role in Domino’s Pizza and devote more time to my charitable endeavours, ” he said from
his home in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Mr. Monaghan has already set up a charitable foundation and is expected to spend most of his time
and cash in the next few years building Catholic schools across America.
He and his brother James began their home delivery pizza chain with one Michigan store, DomiNick’s,
which they bought with $900 they borrowed in 1960.
Over the years, Mr. Monaghan built up the business, focusing on free, fast home-delivery until the
point today when there are 6, 100 Domino stores worldwide, about two-thirds of them in the United States.
Mr. Monaghan had a tough childhood, brought up in foster homes and joined the army at 17. When he
left the army, he turned his mind to pizza and in a fiercely-competitive market, built a chain that is second
in size to Pizza Hut.
He will not give up Domino’s completely. He keeps a small stake and will remain on the board as
non-executive chairman.
56. What could one have done to be called a self-made billionaire?
A. Given money to the poor
B. Worked really hard and effectively.
C. Got money from the older generation
D. Run chain restaurants selling pizza.
57. What does Mr. Monaghan mainly focus on now?
A. Opening up more chain stores.
B. Raising money to help those in need.
C. Hiring people for the foundation.
D. Being the chairman of Domino’s.
58. Which of the following helped Mr. Monaghan start his business?
A. What he learned from business school.
B. His experience as a deliveryman.
C. A small amount of money.
D. Support from his parents.
59. What is the best title for this passage?
A. A tough childhood never stops a man’s success.
B. How to become a successful businessman.
C. Pizza man gives away his millions.
D. Distractions of modern life.
B
During the teenage years, parents walk a fine line between holding on and letting go . Many parents of
high school kids find it difficult to step back from the role they played in the past-when they reminded
children of deadlines, checked homework, stood up for them and protected their interests.
That's appropriate during elementary and middle school. But in high school, teenagers are feeling their
way into adulthood. They have four years before they become legal adults. At that time, everyone they meet
(including college professors) will hold them accountable for their actions.
It's important for parents to look at the high school years as a transitional(轉折的) period during
which teenagers are assuming ever greater responsibility for their lives. Here are some examples from kids’
voice. It's embarrassing(尷尬的) when parents do my homework. If I need your help, I'll ask for it. My
parents spend too much time at school. They don't pay as much attention to me as I would like. My parents
could only find one night when they could both attend my school play. I thought they’d at least come to the6
opening and closing. Watch and listen to me carefully. I'll let you know how much I want and when.
Here are some ways for parents to get along well with the growing children about their learning.
Show an interest in their lives by asking questions, listening and following up on previous talks. Go to
academic events, games and theater performances -- whatever your child is involved in and/or welcomes
you to attend. Help them find resources to be successful. Stress the importance of education-- and actually
live it. Show kids that learning is continuous by taking classes yourself and broadening your own horizons.
60. What does the author believe high school students should be like?
A. Be happy as teenagers.
B. Be responsible for their actions.
C. Be regarded as adults by their parents.
D. Be ready to make their own friends
61. Which is an example of what teenagers like parents to do?
A. Perform in the school play
B. Spend time on listening
C. Talk to their teachers often
D. Correct homework for them.
62. Which of the following is the author’s advice for parents?
A. Paying attention to teenager’s scores.
B. Talking with teenagers about their failures.
C. Attending school activities when necessary.
D. Practicing or learning with teenagers after school.
63. What kind of people would be interested in reading the topic?
A. Textbook writers.
B. Biologists.
C. Art teachers.
D. Parents.
C
Plants have no brain and no nervous system. Yet they take in different kinds of information and can
make good decisions. Plants also find water without sight or touch. They are everywhere in our lives: lawns,
salads and pots on a sunny windowsill. They're so familiar that it’s easy to forget how magical they really
are.
Dinneny is a plant biologist in Stanford. He conducts projects just to discover how plants hunt for
water. What he learns, though, could be useful in finding better ways to grow food. These questions are
important in“this huge crisis we face, ” says Jonathan Lynch, a root biologist. The human population is
growing -- and fast. Whether farmers will be able to increase crops production and keep up is a huge
question. And Earth’s changing climate only makes this more complicated.
To study how plants grow those roots, biologists often start growing plants in the lab, Dinneny and his
colleagues created a system called GLO-Roots. The system is like mini versions of the conditions that roots
find in the ground. But these roots are special: They can give out light in underground. Computers analyze
where that light shows up. And that gives researchers clues to how roots are responding to their
environment.
Side roots that branch out toward water may be familiar. Yet it's another strange thing of plant life. For
vertebrates(脊椎動物), body parts form on babies developing in protected spaces. Egg shells or mothers’
bodies can screen out many outside influences. Cues from soil water, however, change where the little side
root forms. For plants, it's as if the number of mouths on an unborn baby’s head changed if there was more
food outside.
64. Why does the author think plants are magical?7
A. They make decisions with no brain.
B. They get information with sight.
C. They are familiar but easy to forget.
D. They grow all year round.
65. In what sense is Dinneny’s research important?
A. It helps avoid population crisis.
B. It increases crop production.
C. It reduces climate influence.
D. It discovers plants with more roots.
66. Why was the GLO-Roots system created?
A. To find the best conditions for roots.
B. To see how plants grow without soil.
C. To check how roots give out light.
D. To observe how roots grow
67. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A. Side roots form in protected spaces.
B. More food outside, more side roots.
C. Roots for plants are heads for babies.
D. Mother’s bodies are like soil for roots.

Coughing. Sneezing(打噴嚏). Sometimes the workplace sounds less like an office and more like a
hospital ward, especially now that we’re at the height of cold and flu season.
If you're not feeling great, do yourself and your co-workers a favor; Call in sick. You'll likely get better
faster and save your employer money.
Yes, there's a financial price to coming to work ill. It costs employers $180 billion annually, according
to a 2007 study by the Society for Human Resources Management. That's more than employers pay for
employees' absence, which costs only $118 billion a year. Sick employees don't just affect their own work;
they infect co-workers who then need to take time off themselves. (Or who come in sick and spread the
germs further. )
There's a natural worry that if you don't go in, the work won't get done, or it will pile up so high you'll
never be able to get through it all. That’s especially true these days, when it seems everyone is doing more
work with less resources.
“People don't want to stay home and add to their co-workers’ workloads just because they've got the
sniffles, " says Michael Smith, a physician. "In the end it hurts more than it helps. "
Yes, if it’s really nothing more than sniffles, go on in. To be safe, wash your hands more often, don't
touch anyone else’s phone or keyboard and always cough or sneeze into a tissue.
Ideally, though, with any true cold, even just a minor one, you should work from home, Smith says.
Definitely call in sick, he adds, if you’ve got a stuffed nose, cough, chest congestion or are throwing up.
And never go into the office with a fever. People showing up at work sick are a much bigger concern than
people missing work when they're not really ill.
68. What does the underlined sentence "Call in sick. ” (Paragraph 2) mean?
A. Phone to the boss to ask for a leave.
B. Find out the cause of the sickness.
C. Gather the sick ones together
D. Tell others that you are sick.
69. Which of the following will Michael Smith most probably agree with?
A. Go to see a doctor once you’ve got a stuffed nose.
B. Hand-washing may protect you from catching a cold.
C. Don’t take on more work which is beyond your ability.
D. Don’t worry about the work when you are not feeling good.
70. It costs employers more to allow employees coming to work ill because______.8
A. they spend much money in curing employee’s illness.
B. they improve those employees salary as a price.
C. sick employees fail to finish their work.
D. more employees may ask for leave.
71. What is the main subject of the text?
A. Workplace is like a hospital ward at the height of flu season.
B. Health is the most important thing in people’s life.
C. Overwork makes people’s health getting worse.
D. People should stay home when they feel sick.
