The Seventh Period : 閱讀理解

A 9.30

　 Last week， millions of Chinese viewers tuned in to CCTV 5 to watch two teams of men in colourful clothing chase a ball around a field.

But the New England Patriots(愛國者隊) and Carolina Panthers(黑豹隊) were not playing soccer - they were competing for American football’s greatest prize， the Super Bowl.

The first recorded game of American football was played between a Canadian and an American university more than 100 years ago， using a mixture of soccer and rugby(英式橄欖球) rules. The Super Bowl itself was first contested in 1967， but 2004 was the first time the game reached Chinese TV screens.

American football is very popular because it exhibits a number of athletic skills， such as running，jumping， catching， throwing and kicking. There is also hitting and tackling， which appears violent(激烈的)sometimes！

The best-known league in the United States is the National Football League (NFL)， which is made up of 30 teams， and the Super Bowl is its championship game. One of the most famous players is New England star Tom Brady， who was named the Most Valuable Player as his team won the Super Bowl last week. Brady plays in the quarterback position， and is the player responsible for throwing the ball to his teammates.

Now the Super Bowl has arrived in China， maybe the game will become just as popular as basketball or soccer！

56.In the first paragraph， the underlined word “chase” means “______”.

A. to be followed by B. to run after

C. to catch D. to throw

57.From this passage we can see that _______.

A. CCTV has never broadcast Super Bowl before

B. The Super Bowl contest began more than a century ago

C. the Chinese people didn’t watch Super Bowl contest until 2004

D. football game first began in 1967

58.American football is popular because ______.

A. it is easy to play B. it shows many athletic skills

C. it is very violent all the time D. it is not expensive

59.Which of the following is NOT true?

B. Tom Brady serves in New England.

C. Super Bowl is the greatest football prize in the world.

Until the construction of the Sears tower in Chicago and the World Trade Center in lower Manhattan， the Empire State Building was for 40 years the tallest building in the world， standing 102 stories and 1，454 feet tall， including a 222 feet television antenna(天線).

The unusual structure of the Empire State Building， built in just 410 days during the depths of the Depression(蕭條時期)， was planned during the boom(繁榮)years of the 1920s and completed in May 1931. It was the product of a competition between Walter Chrysler of Chrysler Corp. and John Jakob Raskob， founder of General Motors， to see who could build the tallest building.

The structure itself weighs 365，000 tons， less than the weight of the earth that was dug out to build it. Time has shown it to be durable(耐久的) but when it was first opened to the world， the public was worried about the stability of what was then the tallest building ever seen.

A number of curious events have contributed to this famous building， including that an Army Air Corps B-25 bomber plane crashed into the 79th floor on a foggy day in July 1945 at the end of World War II， killing 14 people.

The television antenna was added in 1951. The top 32 floors of the building are given light during the evenings. There is an observatory(瞭望臺) on 86th floor which gives a 50-mile view of the city and surrounding countryside， touching on parts of four states when the weather is fine. There is also a glass-enclosed observatory on the 102nd floor. It cost 40，000，000 dollars to build the Empire State Building.

A. 1929 B. 1931 C. 1920 D. 1930

When we say that Cambridge is a university town， we do not mean just that it is a town with a university in it. London and Liverpool have universities， but we do not call them university towns. A university town is one where there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city. The university is not just one part of the town. It is all over the town. The heart of Cambridge has its shops， market-places and so on， but most of it is university-colleges， libraries， clubs and other places for university staff and students. Students fill the shops， cafes， banks， and churches， making these as well part of the university.

The town was there first. Two Roman roads crossed there， and there are signs of building before Romantimes(earlier than 43 AD). Trouble in Oxford in 1209 caused some students and their teachers to move. Cambridge became a center of learning， and the authority of the head of the university was recognized by the king in 1226.

At that time many of the students were very young (about fifteen)， and many of the teachers were not more than twenty-one. At first they found lodgings(寓所) where they could， but many students were too poor to afford lodgings. Colleges were opened so that students could live cheaply. This was the beginning of the college system which has continued at Cambridge up to the present day.

The colleges were built with money from kings， queens， religious houses， or other sources. Today there are nearly thirty colleges. The newest are University College， founded in 1956， and Clare Hall， founded in 1966， both for graduates. Very few students can now live in college for the whole of their course； the number is too great. Many of them live in lodgings at first and move into college for their final year.

With about 8，250 undergraduates and over 2，000 postgraduates， the city is a busy place. Don’t try to drive through Cambridge during the five minutes between lectures. If you are in Cambridge any morning at five minutes to the hour (the time lectures start)， you know you are in a university town. Stop in some safe place and wait.

68.What’s the most important in the definition of a university town is that ______.

A. there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city

B. there are plenty of universities in the city

C. the university takes up most of the city area

D. most people in the city have university education

69.The history of Cambridge the town dates back to ______.

A. Roman times B. 43 AD

C. before Roman times D. the year 1209

70.The college system formed when______.

A. colleges were built for poor students

B. colleges were built for students under the age of 15

C. colleges were built for poor teachers

D. the money to build the colleges came from kings and queens

71.Many of the students of Cambridge in their first year there should live_____.

A. in colleges B. at home C. in Clare Hall D. in lodgings

72.The best title for this text would be ______.

A. Cambridge’s College System B. Cambridge the University Town

C. Colleges of Cambridge D. Cambridge the Center of Learning

There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously (無意識地). I don’t mean while you are unconscious. I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in(被完全理解).

That is how I learnt the 30，000 words in my mother tongue by living in an English-speaking world. I just picked them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now， to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand　-　but incorrectly.

　 The 5% mislearnt of all the words we “know” will be the least often used words， as the more often used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of these misunderstandings may live with all our lives， without ever knowing that we got them wrong.

　　 Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. “There’s no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across，” they will say. “You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context(上下文).”

This method of guessing in second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases， but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.

And what’s more， there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners’ dictionaries usually have many meanings or usages for each word. So dictionary use should be part of every language learning. A good dictionary is what makes selflearning possible.

Don’t guess！ Look it up！

73.The natural method of learning words is ______.

A. like the way the writer learns English

B. like the way everyone learns a second language

C. to use the words you have often got

D. to learn mostly by reading them

74.Which of the following is most likely NOT true?

A. Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.

B. Most of the 30，000 words the writer learned are often used ones.

C. How many words the writer got wrong are no known.

D. All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.

75.In the writer’s opinion， we should ______ when we come across new words in reading.

A. try to guess their meanings

B. jump over these words

C. look them all up in the dictionary

D. ask our teachers for their meanings
