第三部分 阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）
A
What should I eat for breakfast？ Who should I go out with on weekends？ What should I do if I miss the bus to school？ What colleges should I apply for？ Again and again Chinese kids ask these questions to their teachers and parents. They can’t make their own choices.
Kids in America would be very surprised to hear how much Chinese children depend on adults. When they are ten years old， kids decide what clothes they want to wear and buy. By twelve they know what classes to take for middle school. Thirteen years old is the beginning of being what Americans call a “teenager”. Now the child makes almost all his / her decisions—what to do after school； who are his/her friends； sometimes even when to come home at night. Finally at sixteen the kid usually gets a car from his/her parents. Now he or she can come and go when he or she likes. The only rule is when they come home at night.
Why should kids be independent？ Think about it. After high school most of us will be by ourselves. Will our parents be able to tell us what to eat for breakfast in college？ Can our teachers decide what we should do at work？
Making our own choices can be quite hard and scary. But we can start with making small choices， and then slowly make bigger and more important choices. Before we know it we will become independent， confident and able to make our own decisions！ And we will have a lot more fun！
56. The first paragraph tries to tell the readers that ___ .
A. Chinese kids don’t know what to do in the future
B. Chinese kids always have many questions
C. Chinese kids believe in their teachers and parents
D. Chinese kids depend on adults very much
57. At what age can an American kid make most decisions by himself or herself？ A. Ten. B. Eleven.
C. Twelve. D. Thirteen.
58. Which of the following statements is true？
A. Generally， American kids are more independent than their Chinese fellows.
B. It’s easier for Chinese kids to get used to living in their new society.
C. American parents don’t care for their children.
D. A seventeen—year—old American kid can do what he likes.
59. In the author’s eyes， ___ .
A. dependence on adults is rare in China
B. independence of adults is worth encouraging
C. Chinese kids have no ability to make real choices
D. making decisions is rather easy

Daily at this we shall speak to you about America and the war. The news may be good or bad. We shall tell you the truth. — The Voice of America， February 24， 1942.
Those words were from the Voice of America’s first broadcast（广播）during World War II. Today more than 80 million listeners tune in （收听）every day.

Among the most popular features of the Voice of America are the musical programs which offer every kind of music from Bach to Rock.

Bend over， take a deep breath and drink some water for 15 seconds！ This is just one of hundreds of tips you might get if you have hiccups（打嗝）. Hiccups are so mysterious. We really don’t know why they start and why they stop.
Everyone has a favorite cure（治愈方法）for a case of the hiccups. Some people think that a good scare is necessary to get well. Others eat a teaspoon of sugar. Still others drink a glass of water with a knife in it. An American man named Jack O’ Leary claimed to have hiccups 160 million times over a period of eight years. He tried 60，000 cures， but none of them worked. Finally he prayed（祈祷）to Saint Jude， the saint of hopeless cases， and his hiccupping stopped immediately.
It took a British singer eight months to cure his hiccups. People from all over the world wrote him letters with suggestions for getting well. He tried them all， but the hiccups continued. Finally， he drank a “secret”mixture someone had sent him. By that evening his hiccups were gone.
Why did these cures work for these two men？ No one really knows. But people who have studied many cases of hiccups have an idea. Hiccups usually go away if you believe in the cure.

Most of the students at our school wanted to be professional athletes in the future！ At our school， 64 people hoped to be sports stars in the future. This included 32 future soccer players， 12 baseball players， 10 basketball players， 7 tennis players， and 3 hockey players.
Lots of students at our school also wanted to be movie stars or singers. 58 students said they wanted to become singers， and 57 said they wanted to act in movies. We hope your dreams come true！ Just remember your friends from school when you become superstars.

What should I eat for breakfast？ Who should I go out with on weekends？ What should I do if I miss the bus to school？ What colleges should I apply for？ Again and again Chinese kids ask these questions to their teachers and parents. They can’t make their own choices.
Kids in America would be very surprised to hear how much Chinese children depend on adults. When they are ten years old， kids decide what clothes they want to wear and buy. By twelve they know what classes to take for middle school. Thirteen years old is the beginning of being what Americans call a “teenager”. Now the child makes almost all his / her decisions—what to do after school； who are his/her friends； sometimes even when to come home at night. Finally at sixteen the kid usually gets a car from his/her parents. Now he or she can come and go when he or she likes. The only rule is when they come home at night.
Why should kids be independent？ Think about it. After high school most of us will be by ourselves. Will our parents be able to tell us what to eat for breakfast in college？ Can our teachers decide what we should do at work？
Making our own choices can be quite hard and scary. But we can start with making small choices， and then slowly make bigger and more important choices. Before we know it we will become independent， confident and able to make our own decisions！ And we will have a lot more fun！

Bend over， take a deep breath and drink some water for 15 seconds！ This is just one of hundreds of tips you might get if you have hiccups（打嗝）. Hiccups are so mysterious. We really don’t know why they start and why they stop.
Everyone has a favorite cure（治愈方法）for a case of the hiccups. Some people think that a good scare is necessary to get well. Others eat a teaspoon of sugar. Still others drink a glass of water with a knife in it. An American man named Jack O’ Leary claimed to have hiccups 160 million times over a period of eight years. He tried 60，000 cures， but none of them worked. Finally he prayed（祈祷）to Saint Jude， the saint of hopeless cases， and his hiccupping stopped immediately.
It took a British singer eight months to cure his hiccups. People from all over the world wrote him letters with suggestions for getting well. He tried them all， but the hiccups continued. Finally， he drank a “secret”mixture someone had sent him. By that evening his hiccups were gone.
Why did these cures work for these two men？ No one really knows. But people who have studied many cases of hiccups have an idea. Hiccups usually go away if you believe in the cure.

The staff of the Kennedy School Newsletter asked students at our school to take a survey. In the survey， we asked， “What is your dream job？” We asked a total of 400 students at our school. Here are the results of our survey.
Most of the students at our school wanted to be professional athletes in the future！ At our school， 64 people hoped to be sports stars in the future. This included 32 future soccer players， 12 baseball players， 10 basketball players， 7 tennis players， and 3 hockey players.
Lots of students at our school also wanted to be movie stars or singers. 58 students said they wanted to become singers， and 57 said they wanted to act in movies. We hope your dreams come true！ Just remember your friends from school when you become superstars.
Other popular future careers（职业）included vets（49）， computer programmers（40）， writers（30）， and artists（29）. To our surprise， very few students at our school wanted to be doctors（7）， lawyers（13）， or business people（4）. And the teachers at our school may be disappointed to know that only 9 students hoped to teach in the future. Sorry teachers！
