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)

A

Chickenshed is an inclusive theatre company that first began in 1974. Primarily based at our own purpose-built department in North London, we create theatre for all ages and run successful outreach projects, education courses and membership programmes throughout the year. We are also a registered charity and rely heavily on the generous support of individuals, companies, trusts and funds in order to continue our pioneering work.

Performance: Entertaining and inspiring

We regularly present original and entertaining productions for young children, families and adults that showcase talent. We also create new work, inspired by the people around us, about personal and social issues that affect society today which we then take on tour to theaters, community centers and schools across the UK. To date we've toured to over 200 schools, reaching 25,000 young people and rising.

Visit our What's On section to find out more.

Education: Everyone has a right

Chickenshed changes lives by bringing young people from all social and economic backgrounds, races and abilities together to study creatively alongside each other, many of whom have been ignored by society and excluded from mainstream educational settings. Chickenshed has established a network of partners that enables us to effectively target children and young people who would otherwise not be able to access our work. We also run Shedlink - an ongoing project that enables us to help community groups set up independent 'Sheds' around the UK.

Membership: Celebrating diversity

Our work uses the stage to celebrate diversity and performance as a vehicle to solve topical social issues. We hold weekly workshops where young people can gain a new-found confidence and get the chance to perform in major in-house productions. Visit the Membership section for more information.

21. We can learn from the text that Chickenshed is ___________.

A. a theater with a history of over 50 years

B. a company located right at South London

C. a charity relying on support from the public

D. a programme only intended for teenagers

22. What can we infer from the text?

A. Chickenshed welcomes individuals from different backgrounds.

B. All members should create original works to show their talents.

C. You can enjoy performances of Chickenshed in schools worldwide.

D. Community groups have no right to set up their own programmes.

23. Where is this text probably taken from?

A. A fashion magazine

B. An advertising poster

C. An official website

D. A theater review

B

In an effort to prevent Cyber-bullying (网络欺凌), a 13 year-old girl has created a project that makes teens think twice about what they are posting, and

rethink whether they actually want to send a potentially hurtful message.

Trisha Prabhu’s “Rethink”project has already earned her a spot in Google’s 15 Global Science Fair finalists. The theory behind her creation is that a child’s brain tends to be less developed than an adult’s and therefore teens are more impulsive in what they write and don’t understand the possible consequences of their words.

“Research shows that, over 50 percent of teenagers and teens have been bullied online and 10 to 20 percent experience it regularly. I supposed that if teenagers were provided an alert mechanism (警示机制) that suggested them rethinking their decision if they expressed willingness to post a mean message on social media, the number of mean messages would be less than those who are not provided with such an aid”, the Illinois native said on her project site.

The figures certainly show that her study is working, as she was able to prove that 93.4 percent of teens decided not to post a hurtful comment after they were given the option of reviewing the contents of what they had written.

However, the 13 year-old is not content to rest on her achievements and is already planning her next project. She is looking to see how the ‘Rethink’system could work with various social media and apps to prevent cyber-bullying at source. “My design includes an advanced system that catches truly aggressive messages and works with social media sites on web or mobile platforms.”

24. What does the underlined word “impulsive” probably mean in paragraph 2?

A. Hot-headed.

B. Clear-minded.

C. Thoughtful.

D. Considerate.

25. How does the “Rethink”project work？

A. It helps to fully develop children’s brains.

B. It makes teenagers rethink before posting messages online.

C. It protects teenagers who regularly experience cyber-bullying.

D. It catches mean messages on social media and delete them.

26. What can be learned about Prabhu from the text?

A. She has won the competition at the Google Global Science Fair.

B. She runs her project mainly by interviewing teens on social networks.

C. Her project doesn’t work because teens still post hurtful messages.

D. Her next plan is to prevent Cyber-bullying with an advanced system.

27. What would be the best title of the text?

A. How to Stop Cyber-bullying?

B. Say No to Cyber-bullying

C. The “Rethink”Project Wins the Award

D. A 13-year-old’s Project to Prevent Cyber-bullying

C

Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world, in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a false idea created by companies and advertisers, hoping to sell their products.

The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people’s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.

It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process. Products also need to have a short lifespan(生命周期) so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no anxiety.

28. What does the author try to argue in Paragraph l?

A. The practice of choice is difficult.

B. The right of choice is given but at a price.

C. Choice and right exist at the same time.

D. The exercise of rights is a luxury.

29. Why do more choices of goods give rise to anxiety?

A. People are likely to find themselves overcome by business persuasion.

B. Shoppers may find themselves lost in the broad range of items.

C. Companies and advertisers are often misleading about the range of choice.

D. Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.

30. By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that___________.

A. products of the latest design flood the market

B. competitions are fierce in high-tech industry

C. everyday goods need to be replaced often

D. advanced products meet the needs of people

31. What is this passage mainly about?

A. The opinions on people's right in different countries.

B. The problems about the availability of everyday goods.

C. The helplessness in purchasing decisions.

D. The variety of choices in modern society.

D

We all agree, surely – memorizing poetry is a good thing, and children ought to do it. But people do object. At least, they object to the idea that children should be forced to learn poetry. They tend to be people like Michael Rosen. Rosen has more practical objections to children having to learn poetry by the government’s order. Actually, Rosen is all for learning poetry, “when it feels right”, which is, he says, “one of those vague phrases much hated by people in authority and yet it is at the heart of good teaching”.

He’s onto something about the timing, but that doesn’t mean policymakers are wrong to insist on pupils learning poetry. The problem is that some influential

educationists have come to see learning by heart as a waste of time when tomorrow’s adults will want skills more than information.

Let’s come to the most important objectors–children. Their objection tends to come in the least offensive form. It comes in the question: “Why are we doing this?” It’s a worthwhile inquiry. I teach at Sherborne School, where boys do learn poetry; and luckily there’s time in our lessons to answer that question.

Here’s one of the answers I give. There’ll be one time when your good friend is going to introduce you to someone with whom he wants to spend the rest of his life. There’ll be a ceremony to honour this union, and words will be very important. You’re likely to be the one who has to stand up and say, “Let me not to the marriage of true minds/ Admit impediment…”And when you do that, you’re going to be speaking for everyone in the room. Now, everybody breathes sigh of relief.

Learning poetry and reciting poetry forces us to think of it in this public way. However mysterious and intimate poetry seems, we need to remember it’s something we also share, and offer each other. So take some, and pass it on.

32. What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refer to?

A. The right timing.

B. The poetry with vague phrases.

C. The government’s order.

D. The natural way to learn poetry.

33. Which of the following would be favored by some influential educationists?

A. To guide children how to recite poetry.

B. To instruct children on how to get information.

C. To teach students real life skills for the future.

D. To force children to obey the government policy.

34. As for the children’s question, the teacher should _______.

A. consider it offensive

B. take it seriously

C. dismiss it as worthless

D. discuss it after class

35. What’s the writer’s attitude towards poetry learning?

A. Objective.

B. Supportive.

C. Critical

D. Disapproving.

根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Do you have a spare room in your house? Do you like to share your driveway in front of your garage with others? 36 Many people are benefiting from this new business of renting.

Perhaps the best-known example of a company in this field is Airbnb―an American Web business which allows you to rent out your spare room to holidaymakers. It says it operates in 34,000 cities and it has 800,000 listings of rooms and apartments. 37

A British company is doing something with parking spaces. JustPark's founder, Anthony Eskinazi, says, “When I had the original idea, I spotted a driveway close to a sports stadium. It would have been so convenient if I could have just parked in that driveway rather than in a commercial car park.” 38 Around 20, 000 people have advertised their spaces on the website and he says around half a million drivers use it. 39 They are people who run things like traditional hotels and commercial car parks. They are afraid of ending up losing money.

And there is another problem. Regulations for the new business are still unclear. 40 Because this is a new business world, those rules about appropriate manners aren't there yet.

A. And his great idea has proved a success.

B. Both of these can help you make money.

C. A rewarding thing is that you get to meet interesting guests.

D. They seem to have occupied the majority of the market.

E. How will renting out your driveway affect your neighbours?

F. But the new business of renting does have its competitors.

G. Share your driveway with people looking for parking in your area.

The new science of spending comes to a surprising conclusion. How we use our money may 41 as much or more than how much we’ve got it. Money spent on experiences, 42 material goods, brings about more happiness.

Thus, diligently saving up for a down payment might not be such a good idea 54 it means skipping after-work beers with friends or your annual celebration at a favorite restaurant. Dozens of studies show that people get more happiness from buying 55 than material things. Experiential purchases—such as trips, concerts and special meals—are specially 56 to our sense of self, making us who we are.

Experiences come with one more 57 : They are likely to make us 58 to other people, while more often material things are enjoyed 59 . The importance of social contact for 60 mental and physical health has been stressed for decades.

A lady, who found it not easy to wake up early, bought an alarm clock. These clocks are so made as 61 (strike) with a loud noise at any hour the owner pleases to set them.

The alarm clock 62 (perfect) did its duty, and went off at the right time. She 63 (rise) at once, and felt better all day for it. 64 , after a time, the

lady grew tired of early rising. When she 65 (wake) up by the noise, she merely turned over in bed and slept again.

So it is 68 conscience. If we will obey its voice, even in the smallest things, we can always hear it, clear and strong. But if we allow ourselves to do 69 we fear may not be right, we shall grow more and more 70 (sleep), until the voice of conscience has no longer the power to wake us.
