HerculesOnce upon a time there was a great Greek hero, Hercules. He was taller and stronger than anyone you have ever seen. On his shoulder he carried a club and in his hand he held a bow (弓). He was known as the hero of a hundred adventures.Hercules served a king. The king was afraid of him. So again and again he sent him on difficult tasks. One morning the king sent for him and told him to fetch three golden apples for him from the garden of the Singing Maidens (歌女). But no one knew where the garden was.So Hercules went away. He walked the whole day and the next day and the next. He walked for months before he saw mountains far in the distance one fine morning. One of the mountains was in the shape of a man, with long, long legs and arms and huge shoulders and a huge head. He was holding up the sky. Hercules knew it was Atlas, the Mountain God. So he asked him for help.Atlas answered, "My head and arms and shoulders all ache. Could you hold up the sky while I fetch the golden apples for you?"Hercules climbed the mountain and shouldered the sky. Soon the sky grew very heavy. When finally Atlas came back with three golden apples, he said, "Well, you are going to carry the mountain for ever. I'm going to see the king with the apples." Hercules knew that he couldn't fight him because of the sky on his back. So he shouted:"Just one minute's help. My shoulders are hurting. Hold the sky for a minute while I make a cushion (垫子) for my shoulders."Atlas believed him. He threw down the apples and held up the sky.Hercules picked up the apples and ran back to see the king.16 Hercules was the tallest man in the worldA RightB WrongC Not mentioned17 Hercules worked in the king's gardenA RightB WrongC Not mentioned18 Hercules was given many difficult tasks because the king wanted to get rid of him.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned19 Atlas was the giant who held up the sky.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned20 Atlas ran faster than HerculesA RightB WrongC Not mentioned21 Atlas got the golden apples for Hercules because he wanted to be the king himself.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned22 Hercules finally managed to get the apples by defeating AtlasA RightB WrongC Not mentioned第三部分:概括大意与完成句子(第23~30题,每题1分,共8分)阅读下面这篇短文,短文后有2项测试任务:(1)第23~26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第2~5段每段选择1个正确的小标题;(2)第27~30题要求从所给的6个选项中选择4个正确选项,分别完成每个句子。

How We Form First lmpression1 We all have first impression Of someone we just met. But why? Why do we form an opinion about Someone without really knowing anything about him or her -aside perhaps from a few remarks or readily observable traits.2 The answer is related to how your brain allows you to be aware of the world. Your brain is so sensitive in picking up facial traits,even very minor difference in how a person’s eyes,ears,nose,or mouth are placed in relation to each other makes you see him or her as differene1.In fact,your brain continuously process incoming sensory information- the sights and sounds of your world. These incoming “signals” are compared against2 a host of “memories” stored in the brain areas called the cortexsystem to determine what these new signals “ mean” .3 If you see someone you know and like at school3,your brain says “familiar and safe. “ If you see someone new,it says,”new-potentially,threatening”. Then your brain starts to match features of this stranger with other “ known” memories. The height ,weight,dress ,ethnicity ,gestures ,and tone of voice are all matched up. The more unfamiliar the characteristics ,the more your brain may say,This is new. I don’t like this person”. Or else,”I’m intrigued” . Or your brain may perceive a new face but familiar clothes,ethnicity,gestures-like your other friends; so your brain says: “I like this person” . But these preliminary “impressions” can be dead wrong.4 When we stereotype people,we use a less mature form of thinking (not unlike the immature thinking of a very young child) that makes simplistic and categorical impressions of others. Rather than learn about the depth and breadth of people-their history,interest,values,strengths,and true character - we categorize them as jocks,geeks,or freaks.5 However,if we resist initial stereotypical impressions,we have a chance to be aware of what a person is truly like. If we spend time with a person,hear about his or her life,hopes,dreams,and become aware of the person’s character,we use a different,more mature style of thinking- and the most complex areas of our cortex,which allow us to be humane.23. Paragraph 2_____24. Paragraph 3_____25. Paragraph 4_____26. Paragraph 5_____27. Sensory information is one that is perceived through_____.28. You interpret _____ by comparing it against the memories already stored inyour brain.29. The way we stereotype people is a less mature form of thinking,which issimilar to_____.30. We can use our more mature style of thinking thanks to_____.第四部分:阅读理解(第31~45题,每题3分,共45分)下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题,每题后面有4个选项。
