第三部分 阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
There are two types of people in the world.Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other forts of life, one bees happy a nd the other bees unhappy.This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.
People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather.They enjoy all the cheerful things．Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things.Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied.By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend（hurt） many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere.If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied.The intention of criticizing（批评）and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation（模仿）.It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors.The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes.I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck.Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most mon politeness and respect.This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments.If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them suess.Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes.If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings.These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others.If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact（接触）with them.Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one bees mixed up in their quarrels.
56.People who are unhappy _______．
A．always consider things differently from others
B．usually are affected by the results of certain things
C．usually misunderstand what others think or say
D．always discover the unpleasant side of certain things
57.We can conclude from the passage that _______．
A．we should pity all such unhappy people
B．such unhappy people are dangerous to social life
C．people can get rid of the habit of unhappiness
D．unhappy people can not understand happy persons
58.If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should ____．
A．prevent any munication with them
B．show no respect and politeness to them
C．persuade them to recognize the bad effects
D．quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes
59.In this passage, the writer mainly _______．
A．describes two types of people
B．laughs at the unhappy people
C．suggests the unhappy people should get rid of the habits of unhapp iness
D．tells people how to be happy in life

From E-mail to online shopping, you may think you’ve heard everything there to know about the electronic frontier（新领域）.But with hundreds of thousands of Web pages being added weekly, there are plenty of surprises out there．Here are some of the most intriguing（有迷惑力的）.
Put your kid on a greeting card.Here is how: simply take some pictures with a regular camera, and then ask the photo service to develop them digitally （数字化）.For a small fee, you’ll receive your photos on a desk.Put that into your puter and, with a few clicks of the mouse, you can view your photos on the screen.With a few more keystrokes, you can attach the photos to email and send them to friends and relatives worldwide.
Sign on to one or several greeting card’s Websites （://．cardcentral．/ is an index of more than 1200 electronic card sites）and create an electronic birthday or holiday card.Using your digital photos, you can paste your grandchildren onto the cover.
If you don’t want to use your own photos, go to cards．amzon． to browse （浏览） hundreds of images in over 30 categories…all of which you can attach to an electronic greeting card for free.For a nominal fee（很低的费用）you can choose from a library of 75,000 images at ://．phontodisc．/．
Call Australia for free.To have a telephone conversation over the Inter, the person you want to talk to no longer needs a puter.Now all you need to talk to someone in Sydney is one puter with speakers, a microphone, a sound card and some software（available at ://．vocaltec．/ or Mricrosoft．）.Typically, you’ll pay a monthly fee（usually under $20） to a service provider, but after that, the calls themselves are local.Sound quality is the same as that of a cell phone．
Even if you don’t have a puter, you can still use the Web to reduce your long distance phone costs.Some panies offer a service that lets you use an ordinary phone to call another ordinary phone, but charge only a few cents per minute for US calls, because they send them through the Inter．
Today 48 percent of American homes have puters…a figure that is expected to climb to 60 percent by 2003.And by the end of the next decade, Americans will likely be spending more time shopping, banking, investing and learning on the Inter than in the real world.If you can’t do or find something on the today, you probably can tomorrow.
60.Over the Inter, you ________．
A．can hear everything there
B．will meet with plenty of surprises which e out every week．
C．will hear the things about the electronic frontier
D．can find some things are very interesting
61.From the passage we can infer that _________．
A．fewer people will use the Inter in the following ten years
B．more people will study in the regular school by the end of the next decade
C．fewer people will go to the regular school in the following ten years
D．more money will be needed for a long-distance call by the end of the next decade
62.If you want to attach to photo to your e-mail, you have to ________ it．
A．digitalize　　B．take　　　　C．picture　　　　D．send
63.Which of the following is NOT true?
A．A telephone conversation over the Inter can be carried out without puters．
B．Over the Inter, the receiver of the phone conversation doesn’t need a puter．
C．The phone conversations over the Inter are much cheaper．
D．The long-distance calls are local themselves．

The United States is one of the few countries in the world that has an official day on which fathers are honored by their children.On the third Sunday in June, fathers all across the United States are given presents, treated to dinner or otherwise made to feel special．
However, the idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington.A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of the idea for Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Day sermon（布道）in 1909．Having been raised by her father, Henry Jackson Smart, after her mother died, Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her.It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a selfless and loving man.Sonora’s father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father’s Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910.
In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge declared the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day.Roses are the Father’s Day flowers: red to be worn for a living father and white if the father has died。
When children can’t visit their fathers or take them out to dinner, they send a greeting card．Traditionally, fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental（感伤的）.Most greeting cards are too special so fathers laugh when they open them.Some give heartfelt thanks for being there whenever the child needed Dad.

D．her mother died on June 19
66.How many years had passed before Father’s Day became an official day since the father’s day was celebrated?

Life has changed in Mexico City.Streets normally filled with people are empty.One of the most popular professional soer teams recently played a game in an empty stadium that can seat more than100,000 people．It's swine （猪）flu that has made life in Mexico City grind to a halt （慢慢停了下来）.
Seemingly out of nowhere, swine flu has caused confirmed deaths in 12 countries as of April 30.It has sent a wave of alarm around the world.Governments are trying to find ways to prevent further out-breaks.The World Health anization has raised its swine flu global threat level to five out of six．
People may be familiar with bird flu, but they know little about swine flu.Swine flu is a contagious（传染性）respiratory（呼吸的）disease in pigs.It is caused by a type-A influenza virus.Humans can also catch swine flu.The virus causes regular outbreaks in pigs, but people usually do not catch it.However, there have been cases of the virus spreading to people, and then from one person to another.
The symptoms of swine flu are similar to the mon flu.They include fever, lethargy（无精打采）, lack of appetite, coughing, runny nose, sore throat, nausea（恶心）, and vomiting （呕吐）.The high proportion of young adults among the deaths is one of several mysteries about this virus.Most of the dead had lung damage.What caused it is not yet known.
The virus spreads the same way the mon flu does.When an infected person coughs or sneezes around another person, the latter is put at risk.People can get the disease by touching something with the flu virus on it and then touching their mouth, nose or eyes.
There are medicines to treat swine flu.Doctors suggest using anti - viral drugs.They keep the virus from reproducing inside the body.
And there are vaines for it now, several everyday steps can also help prevent the spread of the virus: washing hands frequently; avoiding close contact with people who are sick; and avoiding touching surfaces that might have the virus on it．
People may worry that they will get swine flu from eating or preparing pork.In fact, you cannot catch the virus from pork products if they have been properly prepared and cooked.Cooking food at temperatures of 71℃ kills the virus.
