     Every year when the Italian artist Michelangelo's (1475－1564, 意大利文藝復(fù)興時(shí)期著名雕刻家、畫(huà)家、
建筑師) birthday comes around, computer users all over the world are filled with fear (害怕) and use their
computers with care. Some may even choose not to turn on their computers on March 3. All this fear and care
are just because a deadly computer virus is ready to cause damages (破壞) on that day.
     What's a computer virus then? Why do people get so afraid of it?
     A computer virus is, in fact, a little program that is put into other programs and that does something bad.
It is called a virus because, like any real-life viruses such as AIDs virus, it reproduces itself. And when these
programs are run, the virus is brought to life. It hides itself in your computer system waiting for the right
moment to make damages. And at the same time it keeps producing itself by copying itself onto other programs.
     The Michelangelo virus waits until the artist's birthday comes around, and then it will wake up to do very
bad things like destroying you files (毀壞文檔). So next time when you turn on your computer, look out for
computer viruses!

1. The Italian artist Michelangelo _____.
A. was born six centuries ago
B. was born on March 3, 1475

第一節(jié)閱讀理解（共15小題；每小題2分，滿(mǎn)分30分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給A, B, C和 D項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
In an age when technology moves faster than most can keep up with, a small group of people still remain in the time of old-fashioned letters. Frankly speaking, I was once certain that traditional letters could never be replaced by other means of communication.
But a story about online communication changed my mind.
An old man, who suffered a lot from Parkinson's disease, was not able to talk clearly and could hardly write his name. Living totally alone, he managed to keep in touch with nearly all the members of his family. How did he achieve this? He clicked out words on his computer keyboard.
I, therefore, managed to get an e-mail box as soon as the opportunity came. My life changed. E-mail, and all online communication, is something truly different. It has capabilities that few other products can match.
E-mail is convenient. It takes less time with its fast speed and 24-hour connection. The slow postal service is no match. If you wouldn't want to have a face-to-face talk with your manager, you might talk with him through e-mail even if you are in the same office.
Naming all the good things about online communication is not easy. But wait. E-mail can be inconvenient. It can waste time and energy. Just think what may happen when you take a short vacation and return to find your e-mail box filled with 200 unread messages. You could clearly spend half a day clearing junk ads.
Then, online communication will keep us staying at our computer while it connects us to distant strangers. Once we throw ourselves into the machine, we may forget the human touches we once held so dear. I'm sure there's and always will be a place for the old-fashioned letter, phone call, and face-to-face meeting even in the world of modem communication.
As I listen to the sound of the modem, I was excited at stepping out to the outside world but, at the same time, I sensed a loss of control over something valuable in my personal life.
41. What caused the writer to become interested in e-mail and online communication?
A. The sound of the modem.        B. His own illness.
C. The changing of his life.         D. A sick old man's experience.
42. What is the most probable meaning of the underlined word "junk" in Paragraph 7?
A. Old and useless.                 B. New and useful.
C. Short but valuable.               D. Long but clear.
43. What does the writer think of online communication?
A. It should replace old-fashioned letters completely.
B. It is perfectly and always does good to you.
C. It is extremely useful and convenient, but it may be inconvenient or even harmful.
D. It does more harm than good.
44. How did the sick old man keep in touch with his family members?
A. With the help of his computer.
B. By writing letters with his pen.
C. By making telephones calls.
D. By visiting them regularly.
45. According to the writer, traditional means of communication will never disappear because    .
A. they are convenient and popular though they are slow
B. they help to keep the friendly relationship between people
C. most people cannot keep up with the development of technology
D. modem means of communication does too much harm

第三部分閱讀理解（共20小題；每小題2分，滿(mǎn)分40分）

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

Looking back at my school yearbooks of the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, I find the style of uniform says a lot about the students and the character of the times. In the 1970s, students accessorized (配飾) their uniforms with platform shoes. During the 80s, hair was huge—literally. Students’ goofy hair filled up nearly every shot in the yearbook. In the 90s, accessories were all the rage (流行).

Uniform rules have always been strict. The restrictions (限制) are down to the inch: Gray or plaid skirts must be no shorter than two inches above the knee; a red, green, navy or white polo must be worn at all times; and only white, blue, black, and gray sneakers or flats are allowed. With all these rules, one can’t help but wonder how the typical rebellious (叛逆的) teenager can express her individuality.

Still, they manage. Senior Michelle Ferrier says she accessorizes by wearing bright colors like green and pink in bracelets, shoe laces, and headbands to stand out and be fashionable. For any stylish (時(shí)尚的) Carondelet student, accessories are key.

At Carondelet, one thing’s for sure: The older a student gets, the more she’s willing to bend the rules. Senior Natalia Piwek admits that she often pairs her “tights and colorful socks” with “illegal shoes”. If you happen to see a girl with colorful tights or boots running across the hallway, it’s most likely that she’s running from a dean.

In about two months, I will say goodbye to my uniform. I will miss the convenience of wearing it. However, I must say, wearing a uniform has taught me an important lesson that I will take with me when I go off to college: it doesn’t matter what you wear, but how you wear it. And how you carry yourself.

56．In the 1980s, _________.

A．uniform rules are sneer

B．students preferred goofy hair

C．a(chǎn)ccessories were popular with students

D．students wrote colorful shoes with uniforms

57．Which of the following combinations might the students think stylish?

a. grey bracelets     b. parks shoes laces C. green heathens

d. patterned tights   E. red polo

A．a(chǎn)be   B．bde   C．bcd   D．a(chǎn)ce

58．According to the students, the restrictions of uniforms are_______.

A．a(chǎn)tcler              B．understanding childish

C．childish           D．unselfishly

59．What’s the author’s attitude towards wearing school uniforms?

A．Objictive. B．Tolerant.   C．Agreenble.       D．Oppcaitive.

60．What is the main point of the text?

A．The history of student’s uniforms.

B．How to make school uniforms stylish.

C．Memories and lessons From school uniforms.

D．The debate oven restrictions on school uniforms.

第三部分：閱讀理解（共兩節(jié)，滿(mǎn)分40分）

第一節(jié)：選擇題（共15小題，每小題２分，共30分）

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳答案，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

 A month after Hurricane Katrina, I returned home in New Orleans．There lay my house, reduced to waist-high ruins, smelly and dirty．

Before the trip, I’d had my car fixed．When the office employee of the garage was writing up the bill, she noticed my Louisiana license plate．“You from New Orleans?” she asked．I said I was, “No charge,” she said, and firmly shook her head when I reached for my wallet．The next day I went for a haircut, and the same thing happened．

As my wife was studying in Florida, we decided to move there and tried to find a rental house that we could afford while also paying off a mortgage（抵押貸款）on our ruined house．We looked at many places, but none was satisfactory．We’d begun to accept that we’d have to live in extremely reduced circumstances for a while, when I got a very curious e-mail from a James Kennedy in California．He’d read some pieces I’d written about our sufferings for Slate, the online magazine, and wanted to give us (“no conditions attached”) a new house across the lake from New Orleans．

It sounded too good to be true, but I replied, thanking him for his exceptional generosity, that we had no plans to go back．Then a poet at the University of Florida offered to let his house to me while he went to England on his one-year paid leave．The rent was rather reasonable．I mentioned the poet’s offer to James Kennedy, and the next day he sent a check covering our entire rent for eight months．

Throughout this painful experience, the kindness of strangers has done much to bring back my faith in humanity．It’s almost worth losing your worldly possessions to be reminded that people are really nice when given half a chance．

56．What do we know about James Kennedy?

         A．He was a writer of an online magazine．        

         B．He was a poet at the University of Florida．

         C．He offered the author a new house free of charge．      

         D．He learned about the author’s sufferings via e-mail．

57．It can be inferred from the text that ______．

     A．the author’s family was in financial difficulty

         B．rents were comparatively reasonable despite the disaster

         C．houses were difficult to find in the hurricane-stricken area

         D．the mortgage on the ruined house was paid off by the bank

58．The author learned from his experience that ______．

         A．worldly possessions can be given up when necessary

         B．generosity should be encouraged in some cases

         C．people benefit from their sad stories                                           

    D．human beings are kind after all
