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)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

Some students get so nervous before an exam that do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock , a psychology professor at the University of Chieago , has studied these highly anxious exam-takers.

“They start worrying about the results. They might even start worrying about whether this exam is going to prevent them from getting into the college they want And when we worry , it actually uses up attention and memory resources that you could otherwise be using to focus on the exam.” says Sian Beilock.

The researchers tested the idea on a group of 20 anxious college students. They gave them two short math exams. After the first one, they asked the students to either

sit quietly or write about their feelings about the coming second exam.

The researchers added to the pressure. They told the students that those who did well on the second exam would get money. They also told that performance would affect other students as part of a team effort.

Professor Beilock says who sat quietly scored an average of 20% worse on the second exam. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance

by an average of 5%.

Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated to the exam.

Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who wrote about their feelings got an average grade of B* , compared with a B* for those who did not.

But what can they do if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam or presentation? Professor Beklock says students can try

it themselves at home or in the library and they can still improve their performance.

21.According to Sian Beilock, if you want to succeed in an exam you should .

A. be as serious as you can about the exam

B. focus your attention on the exam

C. set clear study goals and keep them

D. make a careful preparation for the exam

22. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to “”

A. looking for a chance

B. preparing for the exam

C. writing about the feelings

D. taking the exam

23. If a student writes about his feelings before an exam, he .

A. will improve his exam result

B. can keep a good memory of the exam

C. will get support from his teachers

D. will forget what he has prepared for the exam

B

First Day at School

It was my first day at school in London and I was half-excited and half-frightened. On my way to school I wondered, what questions the other boys would ask me and practiced all the answers: "I am nine years old. I was born here but I haven't lived here since I was two. I was living in Farley. It's about thirty miles away.

I came back to London two months ago." I also wondered if it was the rule for boys to fight strangers like me, but I was tall for my age. I hoped they would decide not to risk it.

No one took any notice of me before school. I stood in the center of the playground, expecting someone to say "hello", but no one spoke to me.

My teacher was called Mr. Jones. There were 42 boys in the class, so I didn't stand out there, either, until the first lesson of the afternoon. Mr. Jones was very fond of Charles Dickens , so he asked several boys if they knew Dickens' birthplace, but no one guessed right. A boy called Brian, the biggest in the class, said: "Timbuktu" and Mr. Jones went red in the face. Then he asked me. I said :"Portsmouth" and everyone stared at me because Mr. Jones said I was right. This didn't make me very popular, of course. He thinks he's clever," I heard Brian say.

After that, we went out to the playground to play football. I was in Brian's team, and he obviously had Dickens in mind because he told me to go in goal. No one ever wanted to be the goalkeeper.

"He's big enough and useless enough," Brian said when someone asked him why he had chosen me.

As the boy kicked the ball hard along the ground to my right, I threw myself down quickly and saved it. All my team crowded round me. My bare knees were grazed and bleeding. Brian took out a handkerchief and offered it to me.

"Do you want to join my gang (team)?" he said.

At the end of the day, I was no longer a stranger.

24. The writer prepared to answer all of the following questions EXCEPT "_______".

A. How old are you?

B. where are you from?

C. Do you want to join my gang?

D. When did you come back to London?

25. We can learn from the passage that _______.

A. boys were usually unfriendly to new students

B. the writer was not greeted as he expected

C. Brian praised the writer for his cleverness

D. the writer was glad to be a goalkeeper

26. The underlined part "I didn't stand out" in paragraph 3 means that the writer was not _______.

A. reliable

B. nervous

C. important

D. noticeable

4. The writer was offered a handkerchief because _______.

A. he was in Brian’s team

B. he was no longer a new comer

C. he was beginning to be accepted

D. he pushed a player on the other team

C

To most of us, school means classes, teachers, schedules, grades and tests.

But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts, school is very

different.

Firstly, there are no lessons. All the children, aged between 4 and 19, do

whatever they want. There are no teachers-only "staff members". The idea behind

this is that you do not need to make children learn, because children want to

learn anyway." You do not need to say to a three-year-old, 'Go explore your

environment.' You can't stop them!" says Daniel Greenberg, a founder of the

school." But if you make children do what you want all day, they will lose all

taste of learning."

At Sudbury Valley School, you will permit children to talk, read, paint,

cook, work on computers, study French, play the piano, climb trees, just run around.

Two boys spent three years just fishing!

The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children

can decide the rules. Every week, there is a school meeting where both children

and staff have one vote each-even the four-year-olds. They decide the school rules,

how to spend the school budget, and even which staff they want and do not want

any more.

When the school first opened in 1968, people said it would never work. But

today, the school has 200 students, and 80% of its students go on to college.

Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today.

One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.

28. What is the main topic of the article?

A. An unusual school.

B. Children’s hobbies.

C. A school without rules.

D. Education in the US.

29. What does the school believe?

A. Teachers cannot teach children well.

B. Children learn best when they do what they want to do.

C. Learning is for adults-children should only play.

D. Children should only learn about one thing at a time.

30. What does Daniel Greenberg say about three-year-olds?

A. They love learning.

B. They are very naughty.

C. They want to be outside all the time.

D. They are too young to learn anythings.

31. Who has the most power in the school meetings?

A. The older children have more power than the younger children.

B. A child has more power than an adult.

C. The younger children have more power than the older children.

D. Everybody has equal power.

D

Most of the guests who come on our trips have never been to Egypt before.We want to make everyone comfortable and at ease, but we do always get the same questions in advance of trip. So here I will give you some travel tips.

What should I wear?

If you’re lucky enough to visit Egypt between November and February, pack a sweater. You’l l need it-the desert gets rather cold at night. During the day, the temperature will be agreeable and comfortable. Any other time, pack as if you’re going to Phoe nix of Vegas in August. For the ladies, bathing suits are normal if there＇s a pool where you are going, but leave the string bikini at home –it is a Muslim country, after all. Last, if you are planning on visiting any mosques（清真寺）or certain parts of upper Egypt, ladies will need to plan on bringing something that comes at least to the elbow（肘部）, and no shorts for men of women in those areas.

What special things do I need to pack?

One of my favorite things in the world to bring to Egypt is and Evian Mister, a sprayer (喷雾器)with a fine mist of Evian water. You may be able to find it in your local drug store. Spray a little on your face of head, and your body temperature will feel like it’s dropped 10 or 15 degrees. Other items include your camera, sun block and extra batteries.

How do I communicate with home?

Internet cafes are plentiful everywhere, especially in Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria. If you have international calling on your phone, you should be able to use it-AT＆T and Sprint both work internationally for sure, but make sure you have the international coverage. A satellite phone is best if you are certain to need coverage in the middle of the country, like while sailing up the Nile , but for most people these days a cell phone is fine.

What medical preparation do I need?

In a word: none! The one thing you may come down with in Egypt is politely called “Pharoah’s Revenge. ” The thing that gets rid of Pharoah’s Revenge is a regionally produced medicine, and is available at every drugstore for ＄1 a box . DON’T drink local water. DO drink bottled water, avoid the skins of fresh vegetables, and you’ll be fine.

32. What clothing is proper for ladies visiting a mosque?

A. String bikinis

B. Bathing suits

C. Long-sleeve clothes

D. Shorts.

33. What’s the use of an Evian Mister?

A. To relieve your thirst.

B. To cool yourself down.

C. To prevent sunburns.

D. To drive away insects.

34. What information is provided about distance communication?

A. A cell phone is enough for most people.

B. AT＆T and Sprint offer free service in Egypt.

C. A satellite phone doesn’t work in Mid-Egypt.

D. Internet cafes are only available in big cities.

35.The purpose of this passage is to .

A. describe a journey to Egypt to the tourists

B. attract more possible tourists to the journey

C. warn readers of the awful insects in Egypt

D. offer some practical tips on traveling in Egypt
