第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2.5分，满分50分）
阅读下列短，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woan and a young boy sat down at the next table. I couldn’t help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woan asked: “So, how have you been?” And the boy—who could not have been ore than seven or eight years old—replied, “Frankly, I’ve been feeling a little depressed lately.”
This incident stuck in y ind because it confired y growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can reeber, y friends and I didn’t find out we were “depressed”, that is, in low sprits, until we were in high school.
Undoubtedly a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don’t see childlike anyore. Children speak ore like adults, dress ore like adults and behave ore like adults than they used to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why?
Huan developent is based not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of access to social knowledge. oveent fro one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new status. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages: traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden fro fifth graders.
In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation（揭示）achine has been installed in 98 percent of Aerican hoes. It is called television. Television passes inforation to all viewers alike, whether they are children or adults. Unable to resist the teptation, any children turn their attention fro printed texts to the less challenging, ore vivid oving pictures.
Counication through print, as a atter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social inforation to which children have access. Reading and writing involve a coplex code of sybols that ust be eorized and practiced. Children ust read siple books before they can read coplex aterials.
56．According to the author, feeling depressed is _____．
A．a sure sign of a ental proble in a child
B．a ental state present in all huans, including children
C．soething that cannot be avoided in children's ental developent
D．soething hardly to be expected in a young child
57．Traditionally, a child is supposed to lea about the adult world .
A．through connection with society
B．gradually and under guidance
C．naturally without being taught
D．through watching television
58．According to the author, that today's children see adultlike results fro _____.
A．the widespread influence of television
B．the poor arrangeent of teaching content
C．the fast pace of huan scientific developent
D．the rising standard of living
59．What does the author think of counication through print for children?
A．It enables children to gain, ore social inforation．
B．It develops children's interest in reading and writing．
C．It helps children to read and write well．
D．It can control what children are to learn．
60．What does the author think of the change in today's children?
A．He feels their adultlike behavior is so funny．
B．He thinks the change worthy of note．
C．He considers it a rapid developent．
D．He sees to be upset about it．
B
Bobby oresco grew up in New York's Hell's Kitchen, a tough working-class neighborhood on anhattan's West Side．But Hell's Kitchen lies right next door to Broadway, and the bright lights attracted Bobby fro the tie he was a teen．Being stage-struck was hardly what a street kid could adit to his partners．Fearing their ridicule, he told no one, not even his girlfriend, when he started taking acting lessons at age 17．If you were a kid fro the neighborhood, you becae a cop, construction worker, longshorean or criinal．Not an actor．
oresco struggled to ake that long walk a few blocks east．He studied acting, turned out for all the cattle calls—and during the decade of the 1970s ade a total of $2,000．"I wasn't a good actor, but r had a driving need to do soething different with y life．" he says．
He oved to Hollywood, where he drove a cab and worked as a bartender．"y father said, 'Stop this craziness and get a job; you have a wife and a daughter．'" But oresco kept working at his chosen craft．
Then in 1983 his younger brother Thoas was urdered in a ob-linked killing．oresco oved back to his old neighborhood and started writing as a way to explore the pain and the patriony （遗产） of Hell's Kitchen．Half-Deserted Streets, based on his brother's killing, opened at a sall Off-Broadway theater in 1988．A Hollywood producer saw it and asked hi to work on a screenplay．
His reputation grew, and he got enough assignents to ove back to Hollywood．By 2003, he was again out of work and out of cash when he got a call fro Paul Haggis, a director who had befriended hi．Haggis wanted help writing a fil about the country after Septeber 11．The two worked on the writing, but every studio in town turned it down．They kept pitching （竭力推销） it． Studio executives, however, thought no one wanted to see a severe, honest vision of race and fear and lives in collision in oden Aerica．
oresco believed so strongly in the script that he borrowed oney and sold his house．He and Haggis kept pushing．At last the writers found an independent fil producer who would take a chance, but the upfront oney was too little．oresco delayed his salary．
Crash slipped into the theaters in ay 2005, and quietly becae both a hit and a critical success．It was noinated for six Acadey Awards and won three—Best Picture, Best Fil Editing and Best Writing （Original Screenplay） by Paul Haggis and the kid fro Hell's Kitchen．
At age 54, Bobby oresco becae an overnight success．"If you have soething you want to do in life, don’t think about the probles," he says, "think about other ways to get it done．"

C．He was afraid of being laughed at．
D．He had no talent for acting．
63．Which of the following sentences is NOT true?

B．Before he becae an overnight success, his life experienced ups and downs．
C．His brother's death inspired his writing Half-Deserted Streets．
D．oresco grew up in New York's Hell's Kitchen which is a few blocks east of Broadway．
64．The Studio executives turned the script Crash down because ___ _.
A．they thought the script would not be popular
B．the script was not well written
C．they had no oney to ake the fil based on the script

Sleepless in Seattle? Hardly．West Virginia is where people are really staying awake, according to the first governent study to onitor state-by-state differences in sleeplessness． West Virginians' lack of sleep was about double the national rate, perhaps a side effect of health probles such as obesity, experts said．
Nearly 1 in 5 West Virginians said they did not get a single good night's sleep in the previous onth．The national average was about 1 in 10, according to a federal health survey．Tennessee, Kentucky and Oklahoa also were notably above average with nearly 1 in 7 people reporting in a lack of sleep．In contrast．North Dakota was below average, with only 1 in 13 reporting that degree of sleeplessness．Health officials do not know the exact reasons for the differences．
In the survey, people weren't required to answer the question why they were not able to get enough rest or sleep．But experts noted several possible explanations: West Virginia ranks at or near the botto of the nation in several iportant easureents of health, including obesity, soking, heart disease and the proportion of adults with disabilities．
Studies have increasingly found that sleeping probles often occurred aong people with certain health probles, including obesity．"You would expect to see poorer sleep within a chronically （慢性地） diseased population;' noted Dr Ronald Chervin, a sleep disorders expert in University of ichigan．
Financial stress and work shifts can play roles in sleeplessness, too, Chervin added．He suggested those ay be contributing factors in West Virginia, an econoically depressed state with tens of thousands of people working in coal ining．
The report was based on results of an annual telephone survey of ore than 400,000 Aericans, including at least 3,900 in each state．The survey did not include people who use only cellphones．
