第三部分 阅读理解（共15小题，每题2分，满分30分）
A
There are two kinds of people in the world. Those of the first kind are born idlers (游手好闲者), taking interest in nothing. It seems what they live for is to pass time idly. They simply don’t know why they have to do so, nor will they bother to ask. The other kind are those who take things seriously and never wish to idle away their life. But only a part of the second group are eager enough to make success. All the others fail to make enough effort to make their dreams come true.
Why do things so happen to them? What are the reasons?
I later find out that some people are determined. They are “igniters” that catch fire of their own, giving light and heart. But that’s not the case with others. They may be fuels but not igniters. As pieces of wood or coal, they need a match or a lighter to make them burn so that their energy can be released to give off light and heat.
The majority of people need some igniter to light them. Thus igniter becomes a must for those people to succeed. Unless a suitable igniter comes their way, they will always remain idle like cold unused firewood or coal.
Fortunately, such an igniter is not difficult to meet. One may find it in an instructive book, a film story, a few words of a close friend, some advice of a good teacher, a pleasant journey, or an unexpected love.
Any of these, coming at the right time, can serve as an igniter to start one’s enthusiasm for learning or for a better career, to turn him from a passive state of waiting to an active state of pursuing, to lend him strength to go ahead bravely. In that case, what he has prepared for years will be quickly turned into fruitful reality.
Such an igniter may turn up of itself, but most likely we have to find it ourselves. Never let a chance slide away, for it is the key to your success.
56. According to the text, “________” take things seriously, but may not be able to succeed.
A. idlers B. igniters C. fuels D. lighters
57. According to the writer, what do most people definitely need to succeed?
A. Storing a lot of energy. B. Great interest in everything.
C. An igniter coming at the right time. D. Wonderful dreams about a bright future.
58. The writer writes the article to _________.
A. describe two kinds of people B. encourage people to find chances to succeed
C. praise those who work hard D. make fun of idlers
B
For many years, I was convinced that my suffering was due to my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts and rejections with it.
Many weight-conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved, being special, and being cherished. We fantasize about what it will be like when we reach the long-awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.
But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self-worth, and, of course, love.
It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards vary with culture. In Samoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us strive hard to change our body, but in vain. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.
59. What does the underlined word “everything” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. All the problems. B. All the properties.
C. The whole world. D. The absolute truth.
60. What can be inferred about the author?
A. The author is a Samoan.
B. The author succeeded losing weight.
C. The author has been troubled by her weight.
D. The author probably got wounded in an accident.
61. According to the text, those who have lost weight first and gained it back later feel _______.
A. angry about the regained weight
B. indifferent to the regained weight
C. optimistic about future plans on weight control
D. they should give up their future plans on weight control
62. The text tries to stress the importance of ____________.
A. body size B. attitudes toward life C. culture difference D. different beauty standards
C
“Soon, you’re going to have to move it out!” cried my neighbor on seeing the largest tomato plant known to mankind or at least known in my neighborhood.
One tiny 9-inch plant, bought for $1.25 in the spring, has already taken over much of my rose bed, covering much of other plants, and is well on its way to the front door.
Roses require a good deal of care, and if it weren’t for the pleasure they give, it wouldn’t be worth the work. As it is, I have a garden full of sweet-smelling roses for most of the year. Bushes must be pruned (剪枝) in early spring, leaving ugly woody branches until the new growth appears a few weeks later. It was the space available in the garden that led me into planting just one little tomato plant. A big mistake.
Soil conditions made just perfect for roses turn out to be even more perfect for tomatoes. The daily watering coupled with full sun and regular fertilizing (施肥) have turned the little plant into a tall bush. The cage I placed around it has disappeared under the thick leaves.
Now when harvesting the fruit, I have to find the red ones among the leaves, which means I almost have to stand on my head, and once found, I have to reach down and under to pick the tomatoes. I found two full-blown white roses completely hidden as I picked tomatoes in June. But they were weak and the leaves already yellow for lack of light.
Here I am faced with a painful small decision: To tear up a wonderful and productive tomato plant that offers ten to twenty ripe sweet tomatoes each day or say goodbye to several expensive and treasured roses. Like Scarlett in Gone With Wind, I’ll think about that tomorrow.
63. What are the requirements for the healthy growth of roses?
A. A lot of care and the right soil. B. Frequent pruning and fertilizing.
C. Tomato plants grown alongside. D. Cages placed around the roots.
64. The writer planted the tomato because _________.
A. it cost only
