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。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.

A

Singapore is a country with 42% of its population foreign born. Singaporeans, even those of the same ethnic group 假群）,have many different first languages and cultures. For example, within the SingaporeanChinese group, nearly a third speak English as their home language while almost half speak Standard Chinese as their home language and the rest speak various Chinese dialects （方言）as their home language. Due to these reasons,the English fluency level of people in Singapore varies greatly from person to person.

Most reasonably educated Singaporeans do speak Singapore Standard English, also known as Educated Singapore English, which, grammatically, is not different from standard British English, with changes being limited to accent and a few borrowed words, causing few challenges to any native Britons.

Singapore English dates from the 146 years of British colonial rule over Singapore until its independence in 1965. Before 1965, the standard form of English in Singapore had always been British English. After Singapore won independence, English in Singapore began to take a life of its own, leading to the development of modern Singapore English.

English had been the official language of the colonial government, and when Singapore gained self government in 1959, the local government decided to keep English as the main language in order to help develop economy. The use of English as the nation ' fiisst language serves as a bridge between different ethnic groups in

Singapore. English is the global language for commerce, technology and science, and improvement of English also helps to expedite Singapore ' development and it becomes an

important part of the global economy.

There is an increasing trend of Singaporeans speaking English at home. For children who started primary school in 2009, 60% of Chinese along with 60% of Indian pupils and 35% of Malay pupils mainly speak English at home. Because many Singaporeans grew up with English as their first language in school, some Singaporean Chinese may not be able to speak Standard Chinese.

21. How many people in Singapore are native?

A. Less than a quarter of the population.

B. About forty percent of the population.

C. Nearly sixty percent of the population.

D. Only half of the population.

22. According to the text, when did the British begin to rule Singapore?

A. In 146.

B. In 1819.

C. In 1959.

D. In 1965.

23. What is the meaning of the underlined word " expedite ” in Paragraph 4?

A. Hold back.

B. Bring down.

C. Put off.

D. Speed up.

24. What's the main reason for Singapore to keep English after its independence?

A. Culture.

B. Economy.

C. Freedom.

D. Tradition.

25. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Malay pupils are not good at learning English.

B. Indian pupils do better in keeping their own language.

C. English may one day become the only language in Singapore.

D. More and more Singaporeans are speaking Standard Chinese.

It was almost the worst birthday of Abraham Lincoln ' s life.

On February 11, 1861 (the day before he turned fifty-two), Lincoln left for Washington to become the nation ' s sixteenth President.

When the train arrived in Indianapolis — the first stop on the long journey — Lincoln rode off in a special car without his family. Robert walked from the station to the local hotel.

On his return, Robert found his father waiting anxiously. Where was the bag? Robert explained that he had checked it at the desk.

An angry Lincoln sped to the hall and leaped over the front desk. He began searching through a huge pile of luggage.

Exercises on building self-confidence
