    4．It's usual for the coins we carry around in our pockets to have the head of a famous person on them．It is usually the head of a leader or a renowned （有名望的） figure from the country's past．
    The UK's royal mint （皇家造币厂），however，has just done something unusual：It has released a limited number of coins featuring a rabbit．Not a real-life animal，but a storybook rabbit．Peter Rabbit，the beloved character invented by British illustrator （插图画家） Beatrix Potter （1866-1943），can now be seen on the shiny brand new British 50pence coin．
    Peter Rabbit，for those who don't know，first became known to the public in 1902．Potter published The Tale of Peter Rabbit in that year after inventing her charming bunny years before to comfort a sick child．Peter Rabbit is young and naughty．He's famous for stealing vegetables．In the tale he ignores his mother's orders and sneaks （偷溜） into Mr McGregor's garden，eating as many of Mr McGregor's carrots as he can．Peter appears in other books by Potter too．He always gets into scrapes （困境），whether on his own or with others．But he never learns!
    The image of Peter is as famous as his stories．Like other characters from Potter's books，he's a very human-looking animal．He wears a blue jacket with golden buttons （纽扣） just like a young boy．The closeness of Peter to real children is，of course，why his books have been so successful．The Peter Rabbit series has sold more than 150million copies in 35languages．
    The new Peter Rabbit 50pence coin will mainly be available in the Lake District，a very beautiful region of lakes and mountains in the Northwest of England．Many tourists visit this part of Britain just because of the Beatrix Potter connection．Her best-known creation，Peter Rabbit，has come a long way since he first appeared as a playful，always-hungry young rabbit in 1902!

    63．This article was written toA．
    A．talk about a popular storybook rabbit，Peter Rabbit
    B．show that the UK's royal mint tries to do unusual things
    C．introduce the reader to the book The Tale of Peter Rabbit
    D．show interesting features of the Lake District in the UK
    64．According to the article，Peter RabbitD．
    A．was created in 1902to comfort a sick child
    B．is the main character and only appears in The Tale of Peter Rabbit
    C．sets a bad example to children because he likes to steal vegetables
    D．is a naughty rabbit who is always in trouble and fond of carrots
    65．The Peter Rabbit series has been successful for a long time becauseD．
    A．Peter Rabbit is cute and looks like a young boy
    B．the stories are like other stories from Beatrix Potter's books
    C．the series has been translated into 35languages other than English
    D．Peter Rabbit shares things in common with real children
    66．Which of the following about the Lake District is TRUE according to the last paragraph？B
    A．It is the only region in UK in which tourists can find the new coins with Peter Rabbit on them．
    B．It has tourist attractions such as beautiful lakes and mountains．
    C．It is the name for the whole Northwest region of England．
    D．The majority of tourists visit this area only because of Peter Rabbit．

    分析 本文通过皇家造币厂以Peter Rabbit作为硬币的头像而引出The Tale of Peter Rabbit，随后便介绍Peter Rabbit的有关情况．比如：它淘气，总是陷入困境，喜欢吃胡萝卜，穿着带有金纽扣的蓝色茄克衫等．

    解答 63-66 ADDB
    63．A 主旨大意题．本文通过皇家造币厂以Peter Rabbit作为硬币的头像而引出The Tale of Peter Rabbit，随后便介绍Peter Rabbit的相关情况．故选A．
    64．D 细节理解题．根据第三段可知，Peter Rabbit淘气，总是陷入困境，吃胡萝卜．故选D．
    65．D 推理判断题．根据第三段He always gets into scrapes，whether on his own or with others可知，他总是陷入困境，不管是独自一人还是和别人一起，即像真人一样参与事情．故选D．
    66．B 细节理解题．根据The new Peter Rabbit 50pence coin will mainly be available in the Lake District，a very beautiful region of lakes and mountains in the Northwest of England可知，Lake District是英国西北部一个湖光山色的美丽地区．故选B．

    点评 人物故事类阅读理解文章是高考英语常考材料之一．这类文章一般可分为人物传记和短篇故事两类．这两类阅读材料一般较长，即词数多，而且命题也较多，特别是推理判断题和事实细节题多．在做此类阅读理解题时往往是材料看得懂，题目不好做的感觉．因此，在阅读材料时要重点放在事情发展的过程和结果上，注意把握事件的发展进程及人物之间的关系，细节与主题的关系，用以说明人物性格特点的事实、作者的态度等，这些内容往往是推理判断题的命题点．至于事实细节题的解答，同学们切忌想当然或者凭印象，一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择．

    14．The Making of a Surgeon
    How does a doctor recognize the point in time when he is finally a"surgeon"？As my year as chief resident （进修医生） drew to a close，I asked myself this question on more than one occasion．
    The answer，I concluded，was（50）D．When you can say to yourself，"There is no surgical patient I cannot treat competently （胜任地），treat just （51）B or better than any other surgeon"--then，and not until then，you are indeed a surgeon．I was （52）D that point．
    Take，（53）A，the emergency situations that we met almost every night．The first few months of the year I had （54）C the ringing of the telephone．I knew it meant another critical resolution to be （55）A．Often，after I had told Walt or Larry what to do in a particular （56）D，I'd have trouble getting back to sleep．I'd （57）B all the facts of the case and，often，wonder if I had made a poor decision．More than once at two or three in the morning，after lying （58）A for an hour，I'd get out of bed，dress and drive to the hospital to see the patient myself．It was the only way I could find the （59）A of mind I needed to relax．
    Now，in the last month of my residency，（60）C was no longer a problem．Sometimes I still couldn't be sure of my decision，but I had learned to accept this as a （61）B problem for a surgeon．I knew that with my knowledge and experience，any decision I'd made was certain to be a （62）C one．It was a nice feeling．
    This all sounds conceited （自负的） and I guess it is--but a surgeon needs conceit．He needs it to encourage him in trying moments when he's bothered by the （63）D and uncertainties that are part of the practice of medicine．He has to feel that he's as good as and probably better than any other surgeon in the world．Call it conceit--call it self-confidence； whatever it was，I had it．And it is，I am sure，what a person has to make a（n） （64）B in life．

    50．A．self-serviceB．self-appreciationC．self-respectD．self-confidence
    51．A．more thanB．as well asC．other thanD．as long as
    52．A．supportingB．approvingC．handlingD．approaching
    53．A．for exampleB．in realityC．by contrastD．at intervals
    54．A．valuedB．avoidedC．fearedD．enjoyed
    55．A．adoptedB．appliedC．includedD．developed
    56．A．conditionB．stateC．occasionD．situation
    57．A．retellB．reviewC．reviseD．remind
    58．A．awakeB．ashamedC．awkwardD．asleep
    59．A．peaceB．troubleC．sorrowD．excitement
    60．A．drivingB．reviewingC．sleepingD．operating
    61．A．medicalB．constantC．surgicalD．rare
    62．A．criticalB．specificC．properD．difficult

    15．There is a definite possibility that the climate of the world may be changing．Some scientists imagine that this could even mean the beginning of another ice age．The effects of such a change in climate on the human population of the world would be amazing．
      Recent research suggests that the general warming trend of the past hundred years or so may be coming to an end．During the past ten years，meteorologists（气象学家）tell us the average temperature of the earth has dropped about one degree Fahrenheit．This does not seem like much，but it could have effects on wind and rain patterns which influence the overall weather picture．If these patterns change a lot，it could mean that certain regions of the world may continue to have long droughts（干旱）while others will possibly suffer from widespread flooding．
      What regulates the climate is not exactly known．Meteorologists believe that clouds may be an important factor in regulating the amount of solar（太阳的）heat held by the earth，which in turn determines the temperature of the planet．Another possibility is that man's industrial and agricultural methods may be affecting the natural weather patterns．However，the weather is not understood well enough for scientists to say for certain what is happening to the climate and what side effects this will actually have on the world's population．
    56．According to the text，the climate of the world seems toA．
    A．be getting colder
    B．be getting warmer
    C．remain the same in the past ten years
    D．have good effects on the world's population
    57．According to what you have read，which of the following is true？D
    A．Another ice age will come soon．
    B．Man's activities have no effect on the climate．
    C．People don't care about the changing climate．
    D．Scientists are not yet sure about the reason for the changing climate．
    58．The underlined word"regulates"in the third paragraph probably means"B"．
    A．manages          B．controls        C．prevents       D．protects
    59．The best title for the text would beC．
    A．Droughts and Floods        
    B．Meteorologists
    C．Changing Climate          
    D．Solar Heat．

    9．The health-care economy is filled with unusual and even unique economic relationships．One of the least understood involves the peculiar roles of producer or"provider"and purchaser or"consumer"in the typical doctor-patient relationship．In most sectors of the economy，it is the seller who attempts to attract a potential buyer with various appealing factors of price，quality，and use，and it is the buyer who makes the decision．Such condition，however，is not common in most of the health-care industry．
    In the health-care industry，the doctor-patient relationship is the mirror image of the ordinary relationship between producer and consumer．Once an individual has chosen to see a physician-and even then there may be no real choice-it is the physician who usually makes all significant purchasing decisions：whether the patient should return"next Wednesday"，whether X-rays are needed，whether drugs should be prescribed，etc．It is rare that a patient will challenge such professional decisions or raise in advance questions about price，especially when the disease is regarded as serious．
    This is particularly significant in relation to hospital care．The physician must certify the need for hospitalization，determine what procedures will be performed，and announce when the patient may be discharged．The patient may be consulted about some of the decisions，but in general it is the doctor's judgments that are fi nal．Little wonder then that in the eye of the hospital it is the physician who is the real"consumer"．As a consequence，the med ical staff represents the"power center"in hospital policy and decision-making，not the administration．
    Although usually there are in this situation four identifiable participants-the physician，the hospital，the patient，and the payer （generally an insurance carrier or government）-the physician makes the essential decisions for all of them．The hospital becomes an extension of the physician； the payer generally meets most of the bills generated by the physician/hospital，and for the most part the patient plays a passive role．We estimate that about 75-80 percent of health-care choices are determined by physicians，not patients．For this reason，the economy directed at patients or the general is relatively ineffective．
     
    28．The author's prim ary purpose in writing this passage is toD．
    A．urge hospitals to reclaim their decision-making authority
    B．inform potential patients of their health-care rights
    C．criticize doctors for exercising too much control over patients
    D．analyze some important economic factors in health-care
    29．It can be inferred that doctors are able to determine hospital policies becauseB．
    A．most of patient's bills are paid by his health insurance
    B．it is doctors who generate income for the hospital
    C．some patients might refuse to take their physician's advice
    D．a doctor is ultimately responsible for a patient's health
    30．According to the author，when a doctor tells a patient to"return next Wednesday"，the doctor is in factC．
    A．advising the patient to seek a second opinion
    B．warning the patient that a hospital stay might be necessary
    C．instructing the patient to buy more medical services
    D．admitting that the first visit was ineffective
    31．The author is most probably leading up toA．
    A．a proposal to control medical costs
    B．a study of lawsuits against doctors for malpractice
    C．an analysis of the cause of inflation （通货膨胀） in the US
    D．a discussion of a new medical treatment．

    9．Hello，everyone．If s nice to speak about that we can do for our school，and I think small actions can make big difference．The first thing we can do is to make our campus more beautifully．Every one of them may plant a tree in the school or to organize a thorough cleaning on the campus．We can also form a good habit of putting rubbishes into trashcans．Never forget to turn off the lights and close the doors．We should not leave the tap water run or waste any materials in the laboratory class．In that case，I believe we'll turn our school in a better place to study and live in．How I wish we can enjoy a better school life!
    Thank you for listening!
