解析：这篇文章是关于肯尼迪总统被谋杀的两种推测，包括the “Single Assassin Theory”和the “Conspiracy Theory”。 第1题，从下文可知是关于谋杀肯尼迪总统的两种主要推测，至今没有定论。main：“主要的”。 第2题，根据后面的or a possible plan or design．在四个选项中与plan和design相类似的只有D项idea。根据第二段的开头句也可以得到答案。 第3题，下两句中出现提示词：alone和single 第4题，act意为“做，采取行动”；=take actions，perform表演，演出，为及物动词。 第5题，肯定意义的并列用and，否定含义的并列连词用or。 第6题，一般而言，可以说相信(believe)，接受或同意某种说法，但不会说信任(trust)某种说法；agree同意，是不及物动词；receive表示客观上“接收，收下”。 第7题，government政府；president总统；police警察。判定某人有罪是“法庭”(court)的职责。 第8题，上文提示：这种说法说杀死肯尼迪的是一个人；completely意为“完全地，彻底地”。 第9题，能得出下文所指的应是“研究”(study)这个谋杀案的人。 第10题，that部分所指的是研究人员经过研究得出的结论，从下文中可知这一结论没有被证实。conclude=draw a conclusion，意为“下结论声称，得出结论”。 第11题，这是一起有预谋的“谋杀案”。murder谋杀案，谋杀；murderer杀人犯。 第12题，此句句意为“根据这种说法，只有Oswald杀了肯尼迪”。shoot一词有“开枪杀死”的含义；kill杀死，可以指各种方式。 第13题，肯尼迪被谋杀致死。Kenney's death。 第14题，这是与前种谋杀肯尼迪的说法相对照的另一种说法，该说法认为有多人参与谋杀肯尼迪。 第15题，上文提示．．．．are planning some action；从句中用的过去完成进行时，表明动词应是延续性的，据此排除D项。 第16题，下旬提示：．．．that several people must have planned it说明这个谋杀案不可能是容易或简单的(easy，simple)；根据therefore(因此)可知道，谋杀是相当复杂的(complicated)。 第17题，此句句意为“他们怀疑(doubt)一个人能否独自策划这起谋杀案。” 第18题，此句是现在推测过去某个时间是否有能力做某事。 第19题，谋杀案发生在1963年，到现在有许多年了。 第20题，此句的句意为“甚至在肯尼迪被谋杀多年后的今天，一些人还在讲哪种说法是正确的”。discuss讨论；speak演讲，讲话；find发现；quarrel吵架。只有discuss讨论，符合句意。

Voices and fingers usually prevent us from reading fast． Young children and even old people learning to read move their fingers along the line of the piece being read, pointing to each word, sometimes even each letter one after another, and saying them to themselves in a low voice． Sometimes the reader makes no sound at all, but keeps moving the inside part of his mouth to pronounce silently． However, no matter how the reader moves his mouth while reading, seen or unseen, visible or invisible, it will be impossible for him to reach a speed of more than about 280 w．p．m．
Reading must be done by seeing instead of with any sort of sound-producing． The reader must be able to read more than one word at a time． When looking straight or directly at only one word in a line of reading, one can clearly see at least two other words on both sides in the same line． In other words, the reader can read three words at one glance． Thus looking straight at one word one can at least take in a whole phrase or even a complete short sentence on one line． Very often less than three eye movements will cover a whole line．
1． Pointing to the lines of a reading piece _____ reading．
A． slows down B． speeds up C． improves D． helps
2． ____a slow way of reading．

Ever since news of widespread food recalls caused by a carcinogenic dye broke, there has been confusion（混淆） over possible links to the country of the same name, but Sudan officials say there is no connection whatever．

科目：高中英语 来源：2011年湖北省高二下学期期末联考英语试题 题型：阅读理解
I have had just about enough of being treated like a second-class citizen, simply because I happen to be that unfairly treated member of society --- a customer. The more I go into shops and hotels, banks and post offices, railway stations, airports and the like, the more I am convinced the things are being run solely to suit the firm, the system, or the union. There seems to be a deceptive (欺骗的) new motto for so-called “service” organizations --- Staff Before Service.
How often, for example, have you queued for what seems like hours at the Post Office or the supermarket because there were not enough staff on duty to man all the service grilles or checkout counters? Surely in these days of high unemployment it must be possible to hire cashiers and counter staff. Yet supermarkets, hinting darkly at higher prices, claim that uncovering all their cash registers at any one time would increase operating costs. And the Post Office says we cannot expect all their service grilles to be occupied “at times when demand is low”.
It is the same with hotels. Because waiters and kitchen staff must finish when it suits them, dining rooms close earlier or menu choice is cut short. As for us guests, we just have to put up with it. There is also the nonsense of so many friendly hotel night porters having been thrown out of their jobs in the interests of “efficiency” and replaced by coin-eating machines which offer everything from lager to laxatives (从贮藏啤酒到通便剂). Not to mention the tea-making kit in your room: a kettle with a mixed collection of tea bags, plastic milk boxes and lump sugar. Who wants to wake up to a raw teabag? I do not, especially when I am paying for “service”.
Can it be stopped, this worsening of service, this growing attitude that the customer is always a bore? I angrily hope so because it is happening, sadly, in all walks of life.
Our only hope is to hammer home our anger whenever and wherever we can and, if all else fails, bring back into practice that other, older slogan --- Take Our Deal Elsewhere.
1.The writer feels that nowadays customers __________.

A. customers’ demands have greatly changed
B. the staff receive more consideration than customers
C. customers’ needs have become more complex
D. staff members are less considerate than their employers
3.According to the writer, long queues at counters are caused by __________.
A. not having enough male staff on duty
B. difficulties in hiring more efficient staff
C. lack of cooperation between staff members
D. not providing enough staff on purpose to reduce budget
4.The writer suggests that a customer __________.
A. be patient when queuing before checkout counters
B. put up with the rude manners of the staff
C. try to control his temper when ill-treated
D. go to other places where good service is available
