Ⅳ 阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
A
A young man was struggling hard on a dirt road to keep up his pace on a very hot day. He looked as if he had not taken a bath for a long time. From the look of his dirty, tattered(破烂的) clothes and his bare feet, one could say that he was a homeless person. He pressed on with heavy breathing and occasionally stopped to wipe the sweat off his forehead. Dry and thirsty as he was, he did not take a detour (绕道) to find a drink of water.
He then slowed down and came to a stop, putting his hand above his eyes to see who was standing far ahead of him. It was an old man of rather high social status. Even on such a hot day, the old man had put on his best clothes and very well dressed up. He patiently stood there waiting in the middle of the dirt road. It could have been hours…
The young man gathered whatever strength he had left and ran toward the old man with great emotions. He stopped right in front of the old man, gathered his calmness and whatever dignity(尊严)he had left. He was speechless…. His eyes met the old man’s, begging for forgiveness. The old man said nothing, although tears were rolling down his face already. He simply extended his welcome to the young man with opened arms. It had been a long time since someone embraced the young man with true love, but this time, it was even more, because it was the embrace of a father to his son who was once lost and now has found his way back.
51. We can judge the young man was a homeless person by______.
A. the fact that he had not taken a bath for a long time.
B. the look of his dirty clothes and his bare feet.
C. the fact that he had not eaten anything for a few days.
D. the fact that he was struggling hard on a dirt road
52. The underlined phrase “pressed on” in the first paragraph probably means______.
A. walked rather fast B. walked very slowly
C. walked aimlessly D. walked with pain
53. The old man of rather high social status had stood there for hours in order to _______.
A. meet one of his good friends.
B. wait for his son to come back
C. see the special scenery there
D. do the young man a favor
54. From the last paragraph, we can infer that ______.
A. the young man had been away from home for about several hours.
B. the old man didn’t like his son.
C. the young man realized it was not right to leave home.
D. the old man took the young man for his son
55. Which of the following statement is TRUE?
A. The young man was very poor.
B. The young man was lost in the forest.
C. The young man left his home and returned.
D. The old man drove his son out of home.
B
Ice cream is girls’ favorite. Having a sweet ice cream on a hot summer afternoon is really an enjoyable thing. But sweet ice cream will bring you not only a good taste, but also many calories, which will make you gain weight. So, why not have a try to make a healthy drink by yourself? Here is a recipe of making a fruit smoothie (思慕西). It’s really very easy. What’s more, it is very good for girls who want to keep fit!
First, we need two bananas. Choose another kind of fruit, such as strawberries, peaches and pineapples. You can also mix several kinds of fruits. Then peel the fruits, remove the seeds, and slice the fruits if necessary. Put the prepared fruits, ice and orange juice into a blender(搅拌机). Cover and turn on the blender. Blend at high speed for about three minutes. Now you can pour it into a tall glass and enjoy it.
Tips:
You can use any kind of fruit. And you can also add honey. For example, honey, lemons, and mangoes will give you another wonderful taste.
If you freeze (冷冻) the fruits before making the smoothie, the drink will be colder. But if you think it takes much time, you can buy frozen fruits in supermarkets.
You can use another kind of fruit juice or milk, even water in place of orange juice.
If you don’t like bananas, you can add more fruits instead, but we think bananas are the best choice because they can help thicken the smoothie.
Instead of using fruits, one of my friends likes to use vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers and tomatoes. It is a great drink, too, especially for those who are fond of healthy drinks, and who want to lose weight.
If you want to know more recipes of healthy drinks, just visit other web pages on this website. More wonderful drinks are waiting for you!
56. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To teach the readers how to make a smoothie.
B. To tell the readers ice cream is bad.
C. To tell the readers to buy frozen fruits to make drinks
D. To advise the readers not to eat ice cream.
57. Which of the following is the proper order to make a fruit smoothie?
A. peel the fruits → remove the seeds →blend some ice→add the fruits
B. peel the fruits →remove the seeds→blend the fruits, ice and juice
C. peel the fruits →slice the fruits→add some milk and ice
D. peel the fruits →slice the fruits →add another kind of fruit
58. Why is the fruit smoothie healthier than ice cream?
A. It’s not as cold as ice cream.
B. It doesn’t have so many calories.
C. You can make it by yourself.
D. You can use both fruits and honey.

Learning in the future will surely not be the same as it is today. Science will help the children of the future to learn and explore their worlds in ways we can’t even imagine.
The Internet will get better. Kids can search for the information with search engines at present. But in the future, the Internet will be available in every classroom and home in the world, so students can research projects in new ways. They needn’t understand how to use the search engines. Computers can understand languages and kids will be able to ask for information for a project without spending lots of time searching the Internet. They just ask for it and it will be there. That’s what fuzzy logic(模糊逻辑)will be about. They will be able to make their own web pages and store their projects by speaking to the computers.
Virtual reality(虚拟现实)will be used for other things besides video games and computer games. It can also be used in studying. Kids can see shapes and feel them. This will make math fun! If a kid wants to do a project on a country, maybe he can visit the country, and experience everyday life there through virtual reality, but he needn’t go there himself. Or maybe he can virtually meet a person from that country, and discuss how life is different. Students will be able to learn through experiencing instead of reading. Dangerous experiments would be safe and fun since the students won’t have to worry about injuries because they don’t need to do the experiments in practice.
In the future, video conferences (会议) will be cheaper and faster than today. Kids can talk with others from all around the world at any time and any place. If they need tips from others, instead of sending e-mails, they can meet others, and watch them as they work. They will be able to use video conferencing to talk with scientists who can answer all the questions the kids have.
