II阅读（共两节，25题，满分50分）第一节: 阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 ANo poem should ever be discussed or analyzed, until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the final thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling interpretation of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once. Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on film, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all, reciting it.I have e to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than analyzing it, if there isnt time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry. Poetry is a criticism of life, and a heightening（提升）of life. It is an approach to the truth of feeling, and it can save your life. It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who dont like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.26. To have a better understanding of a poem, one should_.A. discuss it with others B. analyze it by oneself C. copy it down in a notebook D. practise reading it aloud 27. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry?A . Saving you when your life is at risk B. Criticizing life C. Expressing ones true feelings D. Heightening life 28. According to the writer, one of the purposes of teaching English is to get students_.A. to understand life B. to enjoy poetry C. to bee teachers D. to bee poets29. What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply?A. More stress should be laid on the teaching of poetry.B. The teaching of poetry is more important than any other subjectC. One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.D. Poetry is the foundation of all language and literature courses.30. The phrase “make room” in the last paragraph could be best replaced by_.A. build a booth B. provide equipmentC . leave a certain amount of time D. set aside enough space BRobert Todd Duncan was born in 1903 in the southern city of Danville,Kentucky. His mother was his first music teacher. As a young man,he continued his music study in Indianapolis,Indiana.In 1930，he pleted more musical education at Columbia University in New York City. Then he moved to Washington. For fifteen years, he taught music at Howard University in Washington. At that time, not many black musicians were known for writing or performing classical music. Teaching at Howard gave Duncan the chance to share his knowledge of classical European music with a mainly black student population. He taught special ways to present the music.These special ways became known as the Duncan Technique.Besides teaching，Duncan sang in several operas with performers who were all black. But it seemed that he always would be known mainly as a concert artist. However，his life took a different turn in the middle 1930s. At that time, the famous American music writer George Gershwin was looking for someone to play a leading part in his new work Porgy and Bess. The music critic (评论家) of the New York Times newspaper suggested Todd Duncan. Duncan had almost decided not to try for the part as he knew it would not be easy to get it. But he changed his mind. He sang a piece from an Italian opera for Gershwin. He had sung only a few minutes when Gershwin offered him the part. He became famous because of the part in Porgy and Bess.Todd Duncan gained fame as an opera singer and concert artist. But his greatest love in music was teaching. When he stopped teaching at Howard，he continued giving singing lessons in his Washington home until the week before his death.31What is this passage mainly about?AWhat Robert Todd Duncan loved most.BHow Robert Todd Duncan became famous.CRobert Todd Duncan and his works of music.DA brief introduction to Robert Todd Duncan.32According to Paragraph 2，while teaching at Howard University，Duncan_.Adiscovered special new ways to write musicBopened doors for other black classical singersChad the chance to know many famous black musiciansDbecame known for writing and performing classical music33What happened to Duncan in the middle 1930s?AHe gave up teaching at Howard University.BHe was introduced by the New York Times in detail.CHe was asked to be in charge of the opera Porgy and Bess.DHe was given a big opportunity to bee an opera singer.34We can infer that Robert Todd Duncan didnt at first want to try for the part mainly because_.Ahe was too busy to do it Bhe was not interested in itChe was not confident enough Dhe didnt want to bee famous35Based on the passage,what did Robert Todd Duncan love most?ASinging in concerts. BWriting music.CSinging opera. DTeaching music.CSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful conditions. Social support consists of exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social panionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support money aid, material resources, and needed services that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.36. Interpersonal relationships are important because they can _.A. make people live much better B. smooth away daily problemsC. deal with life changes D. cure types of illnesses37. The researches show that peoples physical and mental health _.A. lies in the social medical care systems which support themB. has much to do with the amount of support they get from othersC. depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesD. is related to their courage for dealing with major life changes38.
