I received pictures of my daughter floating (漂浮) on a lake in California. Right there under the sun during the hottest time of the day, she has only her swimsuit to cover her.

    When I showed it to my students, it was as if I had shown them scenes from a horror (恐怖) movie.

    “But she will get dark,” they said.

    “That’s what she wants,” I told them. “We think darker skin (膚色) is beautiful.”

     They looked at me in disbelief. It was as if I came from the moon.

     For years, American girls spend their summer trying to get as tanned (曬黑) as possible. In China, on the other hand, girls use umbrellas all year round.

    What in the world is going on?

    The pale skin we think looks unattractive (不漂亮) is what Asian women want. Both groups want to meet their culture’s standard (標(biāo)準(zhǔn)) of beauty.

    In the US, if you can afford to go on vacation in the summer, you head for a river, a lake or a beach, where you try to get as much sun as possible. If you are rich you take a winter vacation in some sunny spot. Your winter tan shows your wealth.

    In China, once upon a time, the few wealthy were the ones who didn’t have to work out in the hot sun. So the whiter the skin, the richer the woman. The folk opera performers who play these ladies wore lots of white makeup (妝容). The tradition survives to this day.

    So it comes naturally that none of my students wishes to follow the Western ways in this regard.

    But now I am noticing that a new business – the tanning booth (美黑店) – started up in China. I admire those brave enough to define（給…下定義）their own idea of beauty, but I do wonder what their grandmothers would have to say to them about it!

The students were shocked at the picture the writer showed them because ______.

A. they thought it shameful for a girl only to wear a swimsuit 

B. the writer’s daughter was wearing very little while out in the sun

C. it is dangerous for a girl to be out on a lake alone

D. with the powerful sunlight the writer’s daughter would have got a suntan

According to the article, which kind of woman meets the American standard of beauty?

   A. Women with blond hair.                                        B. Women with a slim figure.

   C. Women with tanned skin.                                        D. Women with pale skin.

In the US a winter tan usually means the person _____.

   A. is hard-working                                           B. doesn’t have to work

   C. has a lot of money and spare time                         D. is from a very poor family

The writer ______ the tanning booth started up in China.

   A. is not interested in                                                       B. doesn’t understand

   C. doesn’t like                                                                       D. has mixed feelings about

第三部分 閱讀理解（共15小題，每小題2分，滿分30分）

請(qǐng)認(rèn)真閱讀下列短文，從短文后各題所給的A，B，C，D 四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

Britons stranded（擱淺）at sea or in flooded homes could find a real-life prince riding to their rescue. Prince William announced on Monday that he is to train to be a full-time pilot with the Royal Air Force's Search and Rescue Force (SARF).

William, who is currently a Lieutenant（中尉）in the Army's Household Cavalry Regiment（皇家騎兵團(tuán)）, will transfer to the RAF and begin an 18-month training course in January 2009.

If successful, he will become a fully operational Search and Rescue pilot in 2010, flying Sea King helicopters at one of the six SARF units based in Britain.

"The time I spent with the RAF earlier this year made me realize how much I love flying," the prince, who spent two weeks with a SARF team while on work experience in 2005, said in a statement.

"Joining Search and Rescue is a perfect opportunity for me to serve in the Forces operationally, while contributing to a vital part of the country's Emergency Services."

It means he will follow a similar career to that of his uncle, Prince Andrew, who was a Sea King helicopter pilot during the 1982 Falklands war.

The Search and Rescue teams' main duty is to recover RAF personnel but in peacetime they mainly respond to civilian emergencies, dealing with more than 1,000 calls a year.

The units deal with incidents ranging from helping those trapped by sudden major floods to rescuing people lost while out walking on hills

William, who has spent the last year on secondment（借調(diào)）to the various branches of the military to prepare for his future role as head of the armed forces, received his RAF wings （飛行勛章）following a four-month stint（持續(xù)的工作）with the service earlier this year.

However, his time with the RAF was clouded when the Defense Ministry was forced to fend off (擋開(kāi)) criticism for allowing the prince to fly military helicopters to a bachelor party for his cousin and to the family home of his girlfriend Kate Middleton.

1. Prince William wanted to be a full-time pilot because _______.

      A. he liked flying

      B. he would like to do something in the country’s Emergency Services

      C. many Britons were in danger at sea waiting for rescue

      D. he had much experience in flying

2 According to the passage, _______

      A. the Falklands war broke out in 2005

      B. Prince William served in the Army’s Household Cavalry Regiment in 1982

      C. Prince Andrew is serving in SARF now

      D. William would finish his training course in June 2010

3 The author’s opinion on William’s joining RAF is _______.

      A. enthusiastic          B. doubtful        C. negative         D. pessimistic

4. What is the purpose of the author by mentioning what the prince had done before in the last

paragraph?

      A. The author wants to say that Prince William pays much attention to his family and friends

      B. The author suggests that the Defense Ministry was criticized when William flew for his

private business

      C. William had a hard time when he went against his leaders

      D.The author has the worry that Prince William is likely to get the Defense Ministry into

trouble again.
