第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，

A
As a little boy I read a book with a picture showing a man reading while floating in the Dead
Sea. What a miracle! How would it feel to lie back in water so thick with salt that it was impossible
to sink?
Fed by the Jorda n River and smaller streams, the Dead Sea is the lowest point on the earth
surface, and its water is ten times saltier than the Mediterranean. As evaporation (蒸发)is its only

outlet, salt and other minerals become super-concentrated.
Earlier this year, I drove down the long, steep hill to realize my dream. The shoreline was a
broad area of bare salt-mud, but the water edge was out of sight. It emed as if somebody had

Sea is drying up. Every year, the surface falls about one meter, and as the water level falls, shallow
areas are left high and dry.”
Over the last half-century, the five neighboring countries have ud up almost all the water
flowing into the Dead Sea to meet human and agriculture needs. Result the Dead Sea is being
emptied.
江山如画的意思With population in the neighbouring countries to double at least in the next 50 years, there is
little hope of restoring the water being ud in this area. No country has a drop to spare for the
Dead Sea, where they know it will just evaporate. To dream of opening the dams and restoring
natural balance is unrealistic.
Yet one ambitious high-tech dream may turn out to be not only the solution to the Dead Sea but
-Dead” is a propod $5 billion project to bring
also a ticket to p eace around its shores. The “Red
a water some 240 kilometers by pipeline and canal from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea. The
Red-Dead may be the only solution, but even if the project is carried out successfully, the Dead Sea
will be 10 to 20 meters lower than now and two thirds of its current size.
Whatever the future holds, the Dead Sea’s magical mix of sun, mud, a and salt will surely survive. Many might complain that the Dead Sea is half empty—but for me the Dead a will
always be half full.
51. What's the passage mainly about ?

A. water crisis is a potential threat to the peace of the area around the Dead Sea
B. as a result of the project “Red
-Dead”, the Dead Sea will be two thirds larger
C. the countries around the Dead Sea will join hands to spare water for the Sea
D. If the Dead Sea dried up, great natural disasters would happen in the region
54. What is the writer's attitude towards the future of the Dead Sea?
A. Rerved

Moving to a new city and state was difficult for me, especially in winter. Little did I know that
a Colorado snowstorm would greet me after I had been in my new home for only a week.
I just misd home. But more than the old hou and the beach, I misd Stacey, my best
friend. And I misd our lovely tea. Going to a sweet little tearoom, we had discovered a special
treat for us. The place was a Victorian dream, with delicate teacups and tablecloths with flower prints. The hat shelf near the front door swept us back to childhood. Stacey and I became little girls, trying on different hats until we found the perfect one for our dress-up tea party. We would then choo a lovely table and order our tea. That was a precious time, filled with laughter between scones（煎饼）and sharing our lives between tiny cucumber sandwiches.
Springtime descended upon Denver, and the sun lightened my heart. But I still fought loneliness almost every day. I decided to explore the Denver area. While my husband went to the office, I took time to e what our new area had to offer.
One day, I was walking along the street when suddenly the words "Tea Leaves" caught my eye.
A tea room? Here, in the land of loneliness and pain?
I walked through the doors, and tears came to my eyes. It was a beautiful room, not Victorian, but simple and lovely.
I sat down and ordered a pot of tea, a cucumber sandwich, and some scones. It felt silly and wonderful -- and it felt like home. For the first time since moving, I felt as if this new city and state could be, would eventually be, my home. I would come back here and bring new friends. When Stacey visited, we would come here.
I lifted my cup and made a silent toast. I toasted Stacey, whom I misd, and I toasted the sweet little tearoom that lesned my pain.
