第二节：信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
请阅读下列应用文和相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。
首先，请阅读下列关于名著简写本的介绍：
A. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (C.S. Lewis)
Stepping into an old wardrobe, four English schoolchildren find themselves in the magical world of Narnia. On this delightful land, they find friends among the many talking creatures.
The children soon discover, however, that Narnia is ruled by the White Witch. Edmund, one of the children, falls under her power. Who can free Narnia? Only Aslan, the great and noble lion. He alone knows the Deeper Magic. But the children themselves must help fight the battle against the White Witch and those who serve her.
B. The Old Man and the Sea (Ernest Hemingway)
Santiago, an old Cuban fisherman, hasn’t caught any fish in more than 80 days. Sailing far out from land, the old man hooks an enormous fish. That begins an agonizing threeday battle. First he struggles against the great fish. Then he must fight off the sharks that circle the little boat and threaten to eat his fish. Exhausted and bleeding, the old man arrives back at shore. But his fish, his beautiful fish . . .
Hemingway won the Nobel Prize for this superb story of strength and courage, of victory and regret.
C. A Wrinkle in Time (Madeleine Lingle)
Meg’s father, a U.S. government scientist, has been missing for many months. He had been experimenting with time travel when he mysteriously disappeared.
Now Meg, her little brother Charles Wallace and her friend Calvin will try to rescue him. But first they must outwit the forces of evil they encounter on their journey through time and space. Can they find Meg’s father before it’s too late?
This novel is more than just a sciencefiction adventure. It’s an exploration of the nature of our universe.
D. The Pearl (John Steinbeck)
One day Kino, a poor Mexican pearl diver, finds a magnificent pearl. With it he dreams of buying a better life, new clothes and schooling for his son. Instead, it brings only evil. His wife pleads with him to get rid of it. "No," says Kino. "I will have my chance. I am a man." But when he kills a man who is trying to steal the pearl, Kino and his wife must run for their lives.
This tale of dreams, justice and the power of greed is told simply and beautifully.
E. The Long Winter (Laura Ingalls Wilder)
It’s winter, 1880—1881, on America’s northern prairies. Mr. and Mrs. Ingalls and their four girls stay near the kitchen stove to keep warm. Heavy snowstorms cut them off even from neighbors. With the trains stopped, no supplies can reach the town. Food and fuel are running out. Day after day the girls must grind wheat for bread and twist hay to burn. At times they nearly lose the battle to keep their spirits up.
This story provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of early American settlers.
F. Jane Eyre (Charlotte Brontë)
Jane Eyre ranks as one of the greatest and most perennially popular works of English fiction. Although the poor but plucky heroine is outwardly of plain appearance, she possesses an indomitable spirit, a sharp wit and great courage. She is forced to battle against the exigencies of a cruel guardian, a harsh employer and a rigid social order. All of which circumscribe her life and position when she becomes governess to the daughter of the mysterious, sardonic and attractive Mr Rochester.
However, there is great kindness and warmth in this epic love story, which is set against the magnificent backdrop of the Yorkshire moors.

第Ⅱ卷（两部分，共35分）

Don’t complain in the NBA
The NBA has a new rule this season. It’s called “zero tolerance”. NBA referees are not letting players complain too long or too loudly about a referee’s call. A player who does can be given a technical foul (犯规). Two technical fouls, and the player is out of the game.
The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it. They think it’s only natural to get angry during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you.
But I like the “zero tolerance” rule and wish other sports would follow the NBA’s example. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if football, soccer and tennis players stopped arguing the calls and just played the game?
The biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good example to younger players. When kids see stars such as Rasheed Wallace of the Detroit Pistons shouting at the referees and arguing every call, they think it’s part of the game. But shouting at referees and arguing calls should never be part of any kid’s games. Kids should be taught to forget about the referees’ calls and pay attention to improving their skills and play their best.
All players need to learn that you control only one thing in a game, and that’s your own performance. You can’t control what the other players or trainers do. And you certainly can’t control the calls the referees make.
Finally, everyone from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds should remember that being a basketball referee is a hard job. The referee has to make dozens of sudden calls. No hesitation. No second chances. Not even the best referee gets every call right.
Maybe if the players, trainers and fans who shout at the referees had to wear a whistle and call a few games, there wouldn’t be as many complaints about the “zero tolerance” rule.

The new rule	The players are not (71) ▲to complain too much about a referee’s call, (72) ▲he might be (73) ▲out of the court.
The players’ opinion	They (74) ▲the new rule and wish it to be changed.
They think it’s natural for them to get angry during a close game if there is a call (75) ▲against them.
The writer’s opinion	He likes the “zero-tolerance” rule and wishes it to be followed by other sports and it would be more enjoyable if players (76) ▲arguing the calls.
The new rule does (77) ▲a good example to younger players.
Shouting at referees and arguing calls shouldn’t be part of any kid’s games and kids should pay attention to (78) ▲up their skills and play their best.
All players can control nothing else except their own (79) ▲.
Everyone should keep in mind that it’s (80) ▲to be a basketball judge.

In country after country, talk of nonsmokers’ right is in the air. While a majority of countries have taken little or 31 action yet, some 30 nations introduced steps based on the law to control smoking. Many laws have been made in other 32 to help clear the air for nonsmokers, or to cut the quantity of cigarettes.
In some developed countries the quantity of cigarettes has become more or less fixed. However, in many 33 (develop) nations, smoking is seen as a sign of economic progress – and is 34 encouraged. As more tobacco companies go international, new markets are sought to gain new 35 in those countries. For example, great efforts are made by the American tobacco industry to sell cigarettes in Middle East and North Africa, 36 sales of tobacco increased by more than 27 percent in 1974.
World government should lead the battle 37 smoking. Limitations on cigarette advertisements, plus health warnings on packages and forbidding public smoking in certain places, are 38 most popular tools used by nations in support of nonsmoker or controlling smoking. But world attention also is being paid to another step which will make the smoker increasingly self-conscious (自觉的) and uncomfortable about his habit. Great efforts should 39 (make) to inform young people especially of the shocking results of taking up the habit. And cigarette price should be raised.
In the long run, 40 is no doubt that everybody would be much better-off if smoking were forbidden altogether, but people are not ready for such strong action.
