第二部分 阅读理解（共一节，每小题 2 分，满分 20 分）

阅读下列短文 ，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
A long-term American study shows the importance of early education for poor children. The study is known

as the Abecedarian( 初 步 的 ) Project. It involved more than one-hundred young children from poor families in

North Carolina.

Half of the children attended an all-day program at a high-quality childcare center. The center offered

educational, health and social programs. Children took part in games and activities to increase their thinking and

language skills and social and emotional development. The program also included health foods for the children.

The children attended the program from when they were a few weeks old until the age of five years. The

other group of children did not attend the childcare center. After the age of five, both groups attended public

school.

Researchers compared the two groups of children. When they were babies, both groups had similar results in

tests for mental and physical skills. However, from the age of eighteen months, the children in the educational

child care program did much better in tests.

The researchers tested the children again when they were twelve and fifteen years old. The tests found that

the children who had been in the childcare center continued to have higher average test results. These children did

much better on tests of reading and mathematics.

A few years ago, organizers of the Abecedarian Project tested the students again. At the time, each student

was twenty-one years old. They were tested for thinking and educational ability, employment, parenting and social

skills. The researchers found that the young adults who had the early education still did better in reading and

mathematics tests. They were more than two times as likely( 有 可 能 的 ) to go to college or to have completed

college. In addition, the children who received early education were older on average, when their first child was

born.

The study offers more evidence that learning during the first months and years of life is important for all later

development.

The researchers of the Abecedarian Project believe their study shows a need for lawmakers to spend money

on public early education. They believe these kinds of programs could reduce the number of children who do not

complete school and are unemployed.

21. The Abecedarian Project has lasted______.

A. almost one year B. about five years

C. more than 20 years D. no more than 15 years

22. What do we know about the people who had been in the childcare center, compared with those who hadn’t?

A. They were more likely to go to college. B. They had children earlier．

C. They had the same results in tests. D. They are less sociable．

23. According to the passage, The Abecedarian Project__________.

A. involves children from rich families

B. doesn’t provide food for children

C. offers foreign teachers to help improve children’s language skills

D. studies the importance of an early education for poor children

24. What don’t we know about the Abecedarian Project after reading the text?

A. How important early education is for poor children.

B. What the children learned at the child-care center.

C. How many children are involved in the Abecedarian Project.

D. Whether lawmakers will spend money on public early education.

Some places in the world have strange laws. It’s important for you to know about them before going there.

Whoever likes to chew gum(口香糖) may have to leave Singapore. The government really wants to keep the

city clean and will fine you for chewing gum.

Before you leave for the United Arab Emirates you’d better make sure you aren’t visiting during

Ramadan(斋月). During that time you aren’t allowed to eat or drink in public. Tourists have been fined up to $275

for drinking in public.

Lovers spend so much time kissing each other goodbye at train stations that trains often start late. This law
高一英语 试题卷 第 4 页 共 9 页
— no kissing your lover goodbye at train stations – is rather old, and isn’t in use today in France.

In Thailand it’s against the law to drive a car or motorcycle without a shirt on, no matter how hot it is.

Punishments are different in different areas and can include warnings and tickets costing about $10. No joke ---

the local police will stop you.

Studies in Denmark have shown that cars with their headlights on are more noticeable by other drivers than

those with their headlights off. Drivers there are required to leave their headlights on even during the day, or they

may face a fine up to $100.

Do you often buy things using coins? Don’t do it in Canada. The Currency Law of 1985 doesn’t allow using

only coins to buy things. Even the use of the dollar-coin is limited (受限制的). The shop owner has the right to

choose whether to take your coins or not.

Make sure you know about these laws before your next trip. Better safe than sorry.

25. What is mainly talked about in the text?

A. How to make your trip around the world safe.

B. Why there are strange laws in the world.

C. Interesting places you can go to around the world.

D. Some strange laws you should know about for your trip.

26. If you are driving a car in Thailand, __________.

A. the police will play a joke on you

B. you should wear your shirt even though it’s hot

C. the police will give you tickets costing about $10

D. you should always keep your headlights on

27. What can we learn from the text?

A. The Singaporean government cares a lot about its environment.

B. Kissing goodbye at train stations isn’t allowed in France today.

C. Tourists in the United Arab Emirates shouldn’t eat in public.

D. You can turn your headlights off in daytime in Denmark.

WASHINGTON—There are more than 222 million TVs in American homes. And it would make Frank

Vespe very happy this week if every last one was turned off.

Vespe is the head of the TV—Turnoff Net —Work, the Washington organization behind TV Turnoff Week.

For TV Turnoff week, American children are encouraged to go one week without watching TV. This year, it
高一英语 试题卷 第 5 页 共 9 页
runs from April 23~29.

“Our real message here is to see what life is like without TV and then make watching TV a conscious （自觉

的）decision ,” said Vespe.

Vespe said that most of the children who go without television for a week go back to watching, but not as

much. “They watch more selectively(有选择性地). They do more things as a family. It helps them put TV in its

place.”

One girl who is turning off her TV is Sarah Foote, 9, of Virginia .

Sarah admits that it won’t be too hard to give up TV. She’s allowed to watch only educational television, and

her favorite show from last year isn’t on any more.

Of course, there are plenty of things about TV: programs can be entertaining, even educational.

Even so, some experts aren’t sure TV Turnoff Week is the answer.

Susan Neuman, a university educator who studies children and reading, says the real problem is that parents

do not keep track of what their children are watching. They don’t set limits on TV watching. Also, in some

families, TV might be the only thing there is to do.

What message does Sarah have for other children?

“It’s a very good idea. I spent a whole week without TV. It also teaches you to enjoy time doing different

things and not being sucked into something on TV, because you don’t want TV taking up all of your time,” Sarah

said.

28. From the passage we know that__________ .

A. American TV companies will be turned off

B. Vespe is very happy as every TV set was turned off

C. Vespe has persuaded most people to turn off their TV sets

D. Vespe plays an important role in the TV—Turnoff organization

29. As Vespe said in this passage ,turning off TV a week can help children__________.

A. forget to watch TV programmes B. improve their habits of watching TV

C. place TV sets out of their bedrooms D. watch their favorite shows

30. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?

A. To advise us to turn off TV sets. B. To warn parents of the danger of TV.

C. To report to us a piece of news about TV. D. To praise Vespe and his organization.

The pickle jar（咸菜坛子）,as far back as I can remember, sat on the floor beside the dresser in my parents'

bedroom. When he got ready for bed, Dad would 31 his pockets and throw his coins into the jar.

that the pickle jar in my parents' bedroom was gone. A lump(哽咽) rose in my throat as I stared at the spot beside

the dresser where the jar had always stood. My dad was a man of few words, and never 37 me on the

dinner, Susan carried the baby into my parents' bedroom to diaper(换尿布) her. When Susan came back into the

"Look," she said 45 , her eyes directing me to a spot on the floor beside the dresser. To my 46 ,

there, as if it had never been removed, stood the old pickle jar, the bottom already 47 with coins. I walked

over to the pickle jar, dug down into my pocket, and 48 all the coins. I dropped the coins into the jar, as

my father always did. I 49 and saw Dad who was carrying Jessica. Our eyes 50 , and I knew he

was feeling the same emotions I felt. Neither one of us could speak.
