第二部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)

A

Mr. Peter Johnson, aged twenty-three, battled for half an hour to escape from his trapped car yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the only escape route --- through the boot(行李箱).

Mr. Johnson's car had finished up in a ditch (沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding on ice and hitting a bank. "Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly," Mr. Johnson said. "I couldn't force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in."

Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape.

Later he said, "It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came."

It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. "It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up."

His hands and arms cut and bruised (擦伤), Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmer's wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Trembling in a blanket, he said, "That thirty minutes seemed like hours." Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.

21. What is the best title for this newspaper article?

A. The Story of Mr. Johnson, a Sweet Salesman

B. Car Boot Can Serve as the Best Escape Route

C. Driver Escapes through Car Boot

D. The Driver Survived a Terrible Car Accident

22. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 “Finally it gave” means that _______.

A. luckily the door was torn away in the end

B. at last the wrench went broken

C. the lock came open after all his efforts

D. the chance was lost at the last minute

23. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.

A. the ditch was along a quiet country road

B. the accident happened on a clear warm day

C. the police helped Mr. Johnson get out of the ditch

D. Mr. Johnson had a tender wife and was well attended

B

It’s easy to think of the selfless reason s to listen. People want you to listen to them. By listening, you can help someone with a problem, or help them come up with new ideas. But listening also has selfish benefits that make it worth the investment.

The biggest selfish benefit is that you le arn more with your mouth closed. You’ll learn more about other people, and often, about yourself, if you stop talking. Those ideas are useful if you want to improve yourself.

Listening also helps you think. When you’re truly listening, not just waiting for your turn to speak, you can chew over your ideas more. You can mull on points of the conversation longer. In the end, you’ll appear a lot wiser if you explain a fully-digested point of view, than if you just speak out the first response that comes to mind.

Building the listening habit also makes better friends than trying to be an impressive conversationalist. People like the guy who listens more than the guy with the best jokes. Be interested, rather than interesting.

If the person you’re talking with doesn’t feel too chatty, bait (启发) them with a comment. Throw something at them which will make it easy for them to talk. A better strategy to listen is to master the short anecdote. This is a 2-3 sentence comment on something that the other person has said. If they are telling a long

explanation of their work as an accountant, you could comment on someone you know that does accounting or something you know about accounting.

24. The following are talked about EXCEPT ______.

A. the ways of being a good listener

B. the benefits of building the listening habit

C. the ways of being a good speaker

D. the strategies to inspire others to speak

25. According to the passage, which kind of person is most probably popular with people?

A. The one who is good at telling jokes.

B. The one who has no speaking ability.

C. The one who is good at public speaking.

D. The one who is good at listening to others.

26. The underlined phrase “mull on” in the third paragraph means ______.

A. think over

B. agree with

C. disagree with

D. put forward

C

New York’s long awaited bike share program, which arranged the distribution of 10,000 bicycles along some of the city’s busiest street, will be sponsored by Citi financial group, Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced on Monday.

Citi Bike will be the largest public bike share system in the US, with bikes placed in 600 stations in Manhattan and Brooklyn. The program will be operated by Alta bicycle share, which runs similar projects in Washington D.C. and Boston.

“The idea behind bike share is simple: give people one more way to get around the town,” Bloomberg said in a restaurant. “The new Citi Bikes will be an affordable transportation network that will help New Yorkers get where they’re going faster. When the walk seems a little far, New Yorkers can choose to skip the hike, and take a bike.”

The program was announced in September 2011, and the department of transport has spent the last eight months planning locations for the stations. Full details on the locations have not been released yet, but they will include Times

Square, Penn Station and close to Central Park.

Annual membership of the program will cost $95, which entitles (授权) users to free journeys up to 45 minutes. For those unwi lling to commit to a year’s cycling, seven-day subscriptions are available for $25 or 24-hour access for $9.95, with the first 30 minutes of any journey free. The official website for the program –https://www.360docs.net/doc/f223613.html, –says the pricing strategy is likely to ensure that riders keep their trips short. Although short journeys are free, anyone wanting to take a bike for the day will face very high charges. People who do not sign up to an annual membership – tourists, for example, would pay $49 for a three-hour ride, plus the $9.95 24-hour access fee, making a total of $59.

The department of transport said the bikes and stations, which will begin to be fixed from “late July”, will be the same as in London, Montreal and Minneapolis; however, in one sense Bloomberg will be hoping the New York program differs from that of London. While the London program has ended up losing money since it launched in 2010, the mayor said New York City would “split system profits with the operator”, creating a potential new income progr am.

27. According to the passage, the main purpose of setting up New York’s bike share system is to ________.

A. make profits from the bike users

B. discourage people from going hiking

C. reduce people’s expenses on transportation

D. help people travel around the city more easily

28. According to the passage, which of the following locations is NOT available for the Citi Bike service?

A. Central Park

B. Time Square

C. Brooklyn Botanic Garden

D. Penn Station

29. What can be learned from Paragraph 5?

A. It is wise of people to use the bikes for short trips.

B. Anyone can use the bike free of charge for 45 minutes.

C. Most people are unwilling to pay for the annual membership.

D. Tourists are charged more for the use of bikes than local people.

30. In what sense does Bloomberg hope the New York program differs from that of London?

A. Better accepted.

B. Better operated.

C. More profitable.

D. More widespread.

Life can be so busy these days. It’s time that you all should admit that you need help in organizing your life. Here are some tips that will help you.

Write everything down and don’t rely on y our memory. 31 If you want to remember things, put them in writing, or in a digital notebook. Keeping your to-do lists and other information written somewhere allows you to look back at them anytime, even when you’ve hit your head and forgotten your o wn name.

32 Try this experiment: before buying one thing, throw out something old or something you don’t use any more. Or, if you’re a really terrible pack rat, just throw out one old thing a day until you can’t find any more items to throw.

Recycle and donate. Is your closet full of unopened bags and clothes that still have their tags on them? Is your bookshelf full of unread books? Chances are that if you haven’t read, worn, or used them, then you're probably not going to use them at all. 33

Create daily, weekly and monthly timetables for cleaning. Organize your cleaning timetables. 34 Distribute tasks evenly, for example, dish washing could be done daily while vacuuming could be done weekly and cleaning windows done monthly.

Whic hever of these tasks you decide to do, remember that you can’t completely organize your life in one go. 35 Just decide to organize now, and then take baby steps. Soon enough, you will be making a habit of it.

The Depression was still going on, but I was in good spirits. I was going to graduate from elementary school, yet my mother 36 dressed me in shorts. Most of my classmates had given up 37 shorts. For the graduation ceremony, all the boys were 38 to dress the same way-white shirts and dark-blue wool pants.

I waited until a week before I told my mother. I 39 I’d better break the news to her as gently as I could.

“Mom,” I said, “about 40 …”

“They’re going to give me the first –prize medal,” I said.

She looked 41 her shoulder at me and smiled. “That’s wond erful, Babe. Dad and I will both be there, and we’ll be the 42 parents in th e place.”

She must have seen by the look on my face that 43 was wrong. She turned her back and said, “So?”

“So, I have to get 44 pants, ” I said.

“Babe, we don’t have the 45 for new pants right now,” she said very quietly, “You know that.”

“Ok,” I burst out. “Then I won’t go to graduation. Plus, I’m 46 away from home!”

The following Saturday, when my mother said, “Let’s go shopping,” I knew she had 47 the problem. We walked a short way and stopped at a place I had never 48 before. My mother said, “49 here,” She entered a storefront that looked like a 50 . She came out about ten minutes later, and we went to the pants store. I was holding the new pants 51 under my arm when my mother went to pay for it. I saw her 52 a tiny brown envelope from her purse. There were four brand-new one-dollar bills inside.

Sitting next to my mother on the bus, I had the window seat and looked out for most of the ride. About halfway home, I 53 down at my mother’s hands folded across her 54 , which was resting on her lap. It was then that I saw the gold wedding ring that had always circled the ring finger on her left hand was 55 there.

第二节：概要写作（满分25分）

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Throughout history, music spread among people of different cultures. In today’s technological advanced society, however, people spread music online, sometimes without an artist’s permission. This can lead to many problems, and music companies are now dealing with this practice. Sharing music online without permission is theft(盗窃).

Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money from their efforts. They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profits and sales over the past 10 years. People who find music for free online are not paying for CDs or every MP3 downloaded. To truly understand the influence of music piracy(盗版) on creators, one must understand how many people are involved in the recording process. For the sale of each album, profits must be shared between musicians, sound engineers, music producers, managers, advertisers, and the company selling the product. Many people believe sharing music only affects the

recording artist, but the reality is that sharing hurts business for all companies involved.

There are many people who don’t see the harm in sharing music online and even think they have the right to do it. One online blogger states that he originally paid for an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever he wants. While he may have legally paid for the music, he does not have the right to provide permission, which means people like the blogger are thieves.

Although we don’t spread today’s music the same way we did before, there’s no doubt that people around the world love to share music. However, internet piracy would prevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft. Therefore, if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists, they need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profit to continue their music careers.
