第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列四篇短文，从短文后每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Do you always concentrate on studying? Do you make straight A’s in your examinations? Working really hard to be a top student is a great thing, but in the United States, having fun with friends is just as important as your grades.

There are several ways to develop friendships. Usually, lots of football games happen in US high schools in fall. I don’t know anything about football but I still go to watch the gam e so I can be with my friends. I thought I could learn the game’s rules by asking my friends, but to my surprise, even many American students don’t know the rules clearly-they just go to the games to socialize. They cheer for the football players and have fun together.

The other common way to make new friends is to join after-school clubs. You can choose the clubs you’re interested in and then meet many like-minded people. For example, I registered for an art club last semester, which opened the door to a new world for me. I met some schoolmates who shared the same interests as me, and my painting skills improved a lot.

There are far more ways to socialize. I’ve heard that you can even meet new friends when you go trick-or-treating on Halloween. It sounds strange, but Americans do have some bold ways of doing things.

Socializing is an important thing in the US, but it doesn’t mean academic grades should be ignored. A successful student should have the ability to balance their studies and social life.

21. According to the passage, which of the following views is held by the author?

A. Socializing is of little importance in the US.

B. Most of American students know the football game’s rules well.

C. You’re likely to meet people who share the same interests in yo ur chosen club.

D. American students watch football games mainly to improve their football skills.

22. What ways to socialize are mentioned in the passage?

①Watching football games

②Chatting online

③Going for Halloween

④Joining after-school clubs

⑤Playing computer games

A. ①②⑤

B.②③④

C. ①③④

D.

③④⑤

23. What can we learn from the passage?

A. The after-school club is of little benefit to the author.

B. Americans may attempt some unusual ways to socialize.

C. Americans hesitate to make new friends when socializing.

D. A top student should attach more importance to academic grades.

B

across the country-and 100 percent of Fetch’s profits now benefit the charity. To date, the two organizations have helped with more than 5,000 pet adoptions and about 1,000 surgeries (外科手术), procedures and visits.

After watching Chinese Poetry Conference, a TV show aired on CCTV-l during the winter holiday, I became a big fan of it. By learning all kinds of classical poems from this program, I felt so proud to be Chinese.

The 100 contestants on the show were from all over the world. They were poetry lovers of different ages and different professions who competed with each other on the platform. As a high school student interested in literature, this wonderful show set me off on my journey into the world of poetry.

When seeing the performance of Wu Yishu, a high school student from Shanghai, I was both shocked by her knowledge and attracted by the poems she recited. During the show, players needed to recite lines about “yue” meaning “moon” or “month” in Chinese. The poems came from her mouth quickly, including lines from the Classic of Poetry, the earliest collection of poems in China.

I took part in front of the TV with my parents as well. But soon I ended up with no lines to answer with. When I heard the poems I knew from textbooks, I nodded my head. When I found poems I never knew before, I wrote them down in my notebook and looked for them on the Internet later.

In my opinion, poetry is not only a kind of philosophy, but also a kind of art. It can bring us enlightenment and happiness. Just imagine you are under a bright moon while writing and reading poetry-what a wonderful feeling that would be. I hope more students grow to love poetry as I have and continue to make Chinese poetry a symbol of China.

28. What do we know about Chinese Poetry Conference?

A. It is a program broadcast on the radio.

B. Its contestants all come from China.

C. It focuses on classical poems at home and abroad.

D. It appeals to poetry lovers of various ages and professions.

29. What did the author do with unfamiliar poems in front of the TV?

A. He took notes and searched for them.

B. He read these poems over and over again.

C. He nodded his head and answered with his parents.

D. He took part in front of the TV with his parents as well.

30. What does the underlined word “enlightenment” mean in the last para graph?

A. inspiration

B. excitement

C. motivation

D. enthusiasm

31. What can you learn from the passage?

A. More students have fallen in love with poetry like the author.

B. Chinese Poetry Conference aroused the author’s interest in poetry.

C. The latest collection of poems in China is the Classic of Poetry.

D. The author thinks poetry is not a kind of philosophy but a kind of art.

D

Every parent wants children who are well behaved and polite, but teaching them these important lessons can be a challenge. Children are emotional, and often fail to consider the consequences of their actions or think before they speak. While some of this will simply improve with time and maturity (成熟), there are some things you can do from a young age to encourage good behavior in your children.

“I want parents to understand that although they’re not necessarily responsible for whatever behavior problems their children might have, there is much they can do to develop the behavior they do want.” Dr. Alan Kazdin explains. There are a few tried and true methods for encouraging the good behavior, and lessening incidents of poor behavior will follow right along.

A simple but effective method is to be sure to catch your children when they are behaving well and praise or reward them for it. Too often, the focus falls on bad behavior, because that is

when parents feel the need to step in. “Positive reinforcement (强化) is not only good to motivate aggressive children and encourage good behavior, but it also helps them see their own positive behavior,” says Dr. Jeffrey Bernstein. Children who recognize good behavior are more likely to repeat it in order to receive the positive attention from a parent.

Another one of the simplest methods of teaching good behavior is to remember to model it. Parents often think that their children should differentiate between proper behavior for adults and behaviors that are OK for them to copy. The problem is, they don’t see that difference, and the “do as I say, not as I do” attitude simply doesn’t teach much of anything. Model the behavior you want to see in your children, and you will be rewarded with better behavior.

32. What can you learn from the first paragraph?

A. It’s easy for parents to make their children behave better.

B. Young children can be reasonable enough to behave well.

C. The more mature the children are, the more emotional they will be.

D. It’s meaningful to encourage children’s good behavior at an early age.

33. What do Alan Kazdin’s words mean?

A. Parents have nothing to do with children’s behavior problems.

B. Parents can’t help but leave the children as they are in education.

C. Much can be done for parents to deve lop the children’s behavior.

D. Parents needn’t take responsibility for children’s behavior problems.

34. Which section of a newspaper is the passage probably taken from?

A. Parenting.

B. Lifestyle.

C. Health.

D. Culture.

35. What is the best title of the passage?

A. Steps to Better Behaved Children

B. Modelling the Children’s Behavior

C. Reasons for Children’s Bad Behavior

D. Teaching Your Children Good Behavior

Many people seem to love potatoes however they are cooked. But have you ever asked

yourself where they came from?

It all started in Peru. There, people grew potatoes over 2,000 years ago. T hey weren’t like the ones we know today. 36 The first Europeans to try to plant potatoes were the Spanish. In 1537, Spanish explorers discovered people eating what they called papas. They brought this strange vegetable back to Spain in the 1550s.

Peopl e generally didn’t like the potato. Lots of other vegetables were introduced into Europe at the same time, like tomatoes and sweet potatoes, and people preferred those to the unattractive potatoes. 37 Very slowly, they spread through Europe. There is a story that King Louis XVI of France liked the potato and planted them in his royal garden. 38

So, what about chips? Well, the Belgians claim that they invented fried potatoes, although nobody really knows for sure. The first mention of “chips” in Englan d is by the writer Charles Dickens in 1859. 39 The Americans call them “French fries” because soldiers from America went to France during the First World War and loved the dish. Now, the Americans eat over twenty million tons of chips a year.

Crisps are an American invention, although they call them “chips”. Everybody agrees that a native American chef, George Crum, made the first crisps in 1853. One day, a difficult customer wanted fried potatoes, sliced thinly. When they arrived, he said they weren’t t hin enough. 40 In the end, Crum got annoyed and sliced the potatoes as thinly as he could and fried them, and then added lots of salt. The dish was an immediate success.

Next time you are in your favourite fast food place eating chips with your friends, amaze them with your potato knowledge!

A. He kept sending them back to be cooked again.

B. The original potatoes were smaller and tasted bitter.

C. They were found to be a good source of vitamins, surprisingly.

D. He mentioned “chips of potato” fried in o il in one of his books.

E. He asked the fried potatoes to be mixed with butter and cheese.

F. Ordinary people stole them and planted them in their own gardens.

G. They were given to slaves and prisoners, because they were so cheap.

Dear James,

I’m glad to receive you r letter. Knowing that you showed great interest in the culture-art festival held in our campus, I’m writing to tell you something about it.

The festival began on December 20 and lasted three days. We students put on quite a few wonderful performances including poetry reading, handwriting and paper-cutting and so on.

These activities were very attractive and instructive, which impressed us deeply.

Undoubtedly, the festival provides a good opportunity for us students to show our talents and better learn from each other. It also contributes to a better understanding of traditional Chinese cultures.

I hope you will have a chance to join us in our culture-art festival next year.

Yours sincerely,
