Ⅱ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)

A

Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past. There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day. Most people only read the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements. Most people don't take time to read real news. They attempt to catch the reader's interest with pictures and exciting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make them stop and look. If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will go on to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements.

It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore. They say they get the news on television now. More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper? Do you think it is easier to get news from television? Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?

21．According to the passage, newspapers are ________.

A．more popular today

B．less popular today

C．as popular as before

D．getting more and more popular

22．We can know from the passage that newspaper editors think the important part of a newspaper is________.

A．the front page B．the sports page

23．According to the author，which of the following newspapers will most probably attract the reader's attention?

A．The ones with interesting pictures and exciting headlines on the front page.

B．The ones with sports news on the front page.

C．The ones with classified ads on the front page.

D．The ones with gossip columns on the front page.

24．The author's attitude toward newspapers is ________.

A．sympathetic B．critical

C．negative D．undetermined

B

My son was a He went to school by bus every day. He was the first student on in the morning, as we were farthest from school, and the last student off in the evening. I was a teacher myself and it was a comfort to realize the school staff (职员) were all working as hard as I was to provide a safe learning environment.

One day I came home from work and waited for my son to get home for a long time. Then I called the school. “Perhaps he's just a bit late，” said the secretary. “I will call the driver to see if those children are home.” A few minutes later, I answered the phone to hear that the other students were home. Then I called his friends' parents, to see if perhaps he had gotten off at their stop to play. The answers were all “No”．

By that time, it was dark and I was scared. My home was in the mountain areas, and it was said that a wolf had come up somewhere. My husband wasn't at home, so I forced myself to calm down and decided to go out to look for him. I was about to go out when the telephone rang; it was

from the driver. “He's okay，” I heard. “He was asleep on the seats in the back, under a couple of jackets. Since it's dark, can he spend the night with my family？”

I was relieved and agreed. Since my son had a great adventure, the school started giving a copy of the list to the driver, so he could check off the children's names when they got off the bus. I think highly of the school for taking the cautionary (警戒的) step ahead; it is a sign of their concern for students, parents, and staff.

President Obama ranks 15th out of 44 in a poll (投票) of the best and worst Presidents while former President George W. Bush earns a place in the bottom five, according to the Siena College Research Institute's recent survey released Thursday.

Obama won a top ten place in two skill set categories (范畴), communication ability (7th) and ability to compromise (用折中的方法解决争端) (10th), and in two personality trait categories, imagination (6th) and intelligence (8th). Background, described as family, education, and experience, proved his lowest score at 32nd.

This is the 5th time the institute has carried out the survey of US Presidents, which is done a year after a new President takes office (上任). The first survey was done in 1982. “Obviously, there's not great validity to the poll since the Presidents have only been in office for one year，”

says the survey's and statistician Douglas Lonnstrom. “But it's a standard for us to see how they move.”

Presidents always rank around 20th while they are in office, and Obama is no exception. His actions over the next few years will decide if he stays roughly the same like Ronald Reagan — who moved from 16th to 20th, 22nd, 16th again, and finally to 18th this year — or like Bush, who fell from 23rd to 39th.

Franklin D. Roosevelt has held his title as top President since 1982 with the same four following as top five: Theodore Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson.

The survey, which ranks Presidents using 20 different factors, shows Jefferson was the most intelligent President, Richard Nixon was the worst at honesty and avoiding serious mistakes, Lincoln had the best overall ability, and Washington was the best leader.

29.In which category did Obama win his best place?

A．Imagination.B．Intelligence.

C．Background. D．Communication ability.

30．Which of the following words can best replace the underlined word “validity”？

A．Lightness. B．Curiosity.

C．Correctness. D．Purpose.

31．Which of the following shows the right order about the ranking?

a．Obama B．George W．Bush

c．Ronald Reagan D．Abraham Lincoln

A．c, d, a, b B．d, a, c, b

C．d, c, b, a D．c, a, d, b

32．Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．Thomas Jefferson is not among the top five Presidents on the list.

B．George Washington is thought of as the most intelligent President.

C．Richard Nixon has always been among the bottom five Presidents.

D．Franklin D. Roosevelt has always been regarded as the top President.

D

Super Typhoon Megi crashed into the Philippines on Monday, leaving a trail of destruction in its path. Thousands of residents fled to safety as heavy rains and strong winds caused flooding, collapsed trees and cut off power. It was the strongest storm to hit the island nation in 4 years.

“At least 7 people died in the storm, and at least 6 others were injured by falling trees, broken rooftops and glass，”officials said. “More than 4,150 residents were forced to take shelter in schools, town halls, churches and relatives'homes.”

A typhoon is a tropical cyclone (热带气旋), or hurricane, that occurs in the western Pacific or

Indian Ocean. The storm is named “super typhoon”when winds exceed 150 mph. Megi crashed ashore in the Isabela province of the northern Philippines with whipping winds that reached 162 mph. The storm created big waves in Palanan Bay. All ships and fishing boats were advised to stay in ports. Several airline flights were cancelled.

“Luckily, the winds blew high from the ground, sparing many rice fields from damage，”says Alvaro Antonio, the governor of Cagayan province.“The region also took a hard hit from the storm.”

Thousands of military reserve officers and volunteers stood by to help with relief efforts. Evacuations (疏散) and emergency preparations for the storm were made days in advance. Retired army Major General Benito Ramos heads the Philippines' agency. He said getting ready for the typhoon was like preparing for war.

33．Which of the following descriptions about typhoon is right?

A．It is a tropical cyclone occurs in the eastern Pacific Ocean.

B．It is a hurricane occurs in the Atlantic Ocean.

C．When winds exceed 100 mph, the storm is named a “super typhoon”．

D．It can bring a great destruction.

34．What does the underlined word in the 4th paragraph mean?

A．避免B．放开

C．带走D．保护

35．What can we infer from the Major General's words?

A．The preparing work is all done by soldiers.

B．The preparing work is a hard and responsible task.

C．The army should get into the relief efforts.

D．They did the same thing with soldiers.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to our tour. This morning, we're going to take you to some points of historical interest in the city. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

If you look out of the window on your right, you'll see the Grange, one of the oldest buildings in the city.It was built for our first mayor 200 years ago, and still has most of the original furniture. Perhaps the most interesting thing is that every Saturday afternoon, you can come and watch them bake bread the way it was done 200 years ago.

On your left is the University Building. This university building is just 125 years old. We'll be stopping in a moment at Bridgeton Castle. This castle was built by Sir Henry Pellat for his young wife. He bought almost all of the building materials from England. Notice the beautiful glass windows. Unfortunately, Sir Henry's young wife became ill and died before the castle was completed. Sir Henry became so unhappy that he left the castle and returned to England. No family members have ever lived there.

21．选B细节理解题。关键是理解文章的第一句话“Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.”，由此可知报纸的地位已不如从前。

22．选A推理判断题。文章第一段提到新闻往往采取一些令人感兴趣的图片和标题来吸引读者注意，而这些技巧一般被用在报纸的头版。

23．选A推理判断题。新闻往往用一些图片和令人感兴趣的标题来吸引读者注意。

24．选A观点态度题。由文章的第一句话可知作者对报纸今非昔比的状况似乎有点感慨，作者认为报纸应该受到人们更多的关注。

in the evening 可知，作者家是离学校最远的，而且她儿子回家应该是晚上而不是下午。故选C 项。

26．选C推理判断题。根据第二段“Perhaps he's just a bit late，” said the secretary 可知，那位秘书开始认为校车稍微有些迟了。故选C 项。

27．选C推理判断题。根据第三段的最后一句“Since it's dark, can he spend the night with my family？”以及最后一段的首句“I was relieved and agreed.”可知，因时间太晚了，那司机将留孩子在他家过夜。

28．选A写作目的题。根据最后一段的最后一句“I think highly of the school for taking the

cautionary step ahead; it is a sign of their concern for students, parents, and staff”可知，作者写这篇文章主要是为了对学校在她儿子的那次小事故后能够快速采取行动表示赞扬。故选A 项。

名次(第六名)，其余三项名次分别为第八、第三十二和第七。

30．选C词义猜测题。根据上下文可知该句大意：显然投票结果不是很正确(validity)，毕竟总统在位仅一年。但是对于我们来说，这是衡量总统如何作为的一个标准。

31．选B事件排序题。根据首段可知，奥巴马排名第十五名；根据第四段可知，里根这次排名第十八名，小布什为第三十九名；根据倒数第二段可知，林肯一直在前五名。由此可知B 项为正确的排序。

32．选D细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知，富兰克林·罗斯福一直位居排行榜的首位，因此D 项正确。

A 项应该是western Pacific Ocean;

B 项应该是western Indian Ocean;

C 项应该是150 mph。

34．选A词义猜测题。由前文“Luckily, the winds blew high from the ground ...”可知，幸运的是风从离地面很高的高空刮过，避免了稻田被摧残。B 项和C 项放在此处不合逻辑；D 项感情色彩不符合语境。

35．选B推理判断题。由语境可知，为迎接台风做的准备工作像是为战争做的，因而可推出这项工作十分艰难且任务艰巨。故选B 项。

36～40FDBCG

42．选C pull “拉”，但是力度不大；用draw 表示“拉”时，力度与pull 相当，但在这里不能使用动词原形；drag “(用力或费力地)拉”；push“推”。文章开始提到他吸引了一大群人，要从人群中把他拉出来一定要用力才行。

43．选C根据44处所在句子中的“the monkey”提示及其在下文的多处出现可知，应选C 项。

语篇解读：本文介绍了火山的分布及爆发时的情况，以及现代技术对火山的探测。

61．解析：考查现在分词。with后接复合宾语作状语，50 or so后省略了active volcanoes，与erupt是主动关系，故用现在分词。

A Dog Saved a Boy

On the afternoon of June 21, 2012, a boy named Tony Bailey went to swim with his dog, Jake, in the river near Omaha of Nebra in the US.

The water in the river had become swift because of the heavy rain the day before. After Tony jumped into the river, he found it difficult to swim back. He became scared and shouted for help loudly. Unluckily, there was no one nearby. At the moment of danger, the dog, Jake, jumped into the river and successfully pulled the boy who nearly drowned to the bank.

The boy and his family were so thankful to the brave and clever dog that they rewarded him with a good meal and a big meat bone.
