第二部分　阅读理解(共两节，满分37.5分)
第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Settled by the Celts, invaded by the Romans and the Normans, and ruled by the English, Wales' population has regularly changed over the ages. Wales, particularly South Wales, became a melting pot (熔炉) of European nationalities and cultures. At first workers from England, Ireland and the rural areas of Wales rushed into the coal mines of South Wales. By 1911, workers from Ireland, Italy and Spain had joined the industrial workforce (劳动大军) there. Many of these newcomers were prepared to work for less pay.
But during this period, workers, dissatisfied with regular pay cuts, poor safety, returned to the land. In 1891, the rural population of Wales was about 616,000 and by 1911 just over 649,000 people lived and worked in these areas.
The rural population continues to grow slowly even today. People from richer parts of the UK, particularly southern England, are buying holiday homes in Wales. In some areas this has led to a lack of housing for local people. This, combined with the lack of employment in rural Welsh communities, has started a new movement of people in search of jobs and homes into the towns and cities of Wales and to other parts of the UK and Europe.
As so many Welsh people have moved to other countries over the last 200 years, it's really no surprise that many visitors come to see friends and relatives. These visitors strengthen their links to their land of origin and continue to support the Welsh's development. During the hot summer days, about 28% of the visitors visit the countryside and nearly 70% visit the seaside.
21. Why was South Wales so attractive to people in the early 20th century?
A. Because it was rich in many different kinds of culture.
B. Because its coal industry needed a large number of workers.
C. Because people could buy holiday homes there.
D. Because people could get the highest pay there.
22. What does the writer want to tell us in the second paragraph?
A. Many people got tired of city life at this time.
B. The working conditions were terrible at this time.
C. The number of rural population of Wales grows slowly at this time.
D. Welsh workers couldn't get any pay for their work.
23. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Wales, a land with a population on the move
B. Wales, a land with a promising past and future
C. Wales, the biggest melting pot of Europe
D. Tourism, the main income source of Wales
B
Beginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made; your future begins here.
However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environment. Many of us can be easily defeated by the details of running a well-balanced life. While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experience of others who have walked the college halls before you.
The following you may find useful about life on campus:
• Plan well. There are so many new things to do at a new college or university. Give yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there. Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.
• If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now (like a day timer, a potable data book), get one. Most of all, don’t depend on your memory.
• Don’t miss the guidelines. The restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student’s handbook. Consider them well-balanced food for thought. What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can/can’t you do in your student residence (住处)? Who has the right for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?
• Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of your bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table. Consider this — you are paying thousands of dollars for your courses. You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.
• Build your identity. This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do. Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas. Do not be afraid of the beyond. This is learning to make good choices.
24. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To explain why college life is exciting. B. To persuade you to go to college.
C. To offer advice on college life. D. To describe the importance of college life.
25. According to the passage, why is it exciting to begin college life?
A. Because you will learn a lot of knowledge.
B. Because you will no longer be afraid of challenges.
C. Because you get yourself prepared for your future career and life there.
D. Because you will make important decisions.
26. The underlined word “know-how” refers to ______.  
A. an understanding of college regulations.
B. a brand-new environment.
C. college rules and regulations.
D. practical knowledge concerning college life.
C
Kyle Schwartz, a third grade teacher from Denver, Colorado, unlocked the secret stories of her students’ lives. 92% of the pupils at Doull Elementary School rely on a subsidized(补助的)lunch program, just one sign of the hardships they face. But Schwartz discovered that no money for lunch was the least of these children’s problems: many struggled with the lack of a parent at home, bullying (欺凌), and stress about their marks.
Schwartz asked her students to answer the question, “What do you wish your teacher knew? ” and to submit their notes anonymously. What they wrote will surprise you.
While some children used the notes to jokingly complain about homework or to ask for more playtime, Ms. Schwartz said some of the answers were “heartbreaking”, as children showed their hard lives. One student told Ms. Schwartz that he did not have pencils at home to do his homework, and another said that they hadn’t seen their father for six years. There was also a student who wrote, “I wish my teacher knew sometimes my homework is not signed because my mom is not around a lot. ”
She shared some of them via Twitter using the hashtag I Wish My Teacher Knew. She received an immediate response and other teachers and schools started using the hashtag to share their own teaching experiences. As a result, the tag trended nationally in the United States.
The story was picked up by national newspapers and even international sources such as The Sydney Morning Herald. Doull Elementary School received numerous donations of school supplies for its students due to answers such as “I wish my teacher knew I don’t have pencils to do my homework. ” The story was featured nationally on ABC World News Tonight, which reported that Schwartz had started a “movement” with teachers across the country copying her assignment to learn more about their own students.
27. What can we know from Paragraph 1?
A. Most students at Doull Elementary School study hard.
B. Most students at Doull Elementary School live a hard life.
C. Kyle Schwartz is curious about others’ privacy.
D. Kyle Schwartz struggles on a daily basis.
28. We can infer from the passage ______.  
A. some students thought Kyle Schwartz was strict
B. most children lived with their parents
C. some children were to drop out because of poverty
D. the children handed in their notes without their names on them
29. How did other teachers react to Kyle’s idea?
A. Worried. 　　B. Indifferent. C. Positive. D. Doubted.
30. What influence did the story have?
A. People around the world have donated money for the school.
B. Not only Americans but also people from other countries are concerned about it.
C. The school has become the best one in the country.
D. Some students have been interviewed by some famous hosts.
第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
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。
Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character？And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?
At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy (嫉妒). 31.
Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green－eyed monster” and the UK is its home.
Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money.
32. Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others—but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.
33. But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world's fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.
“It is not really success that the British dislike，” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology.“It's people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”
34. They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. 35. It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.
A. Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.
B. The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.
C. Some were given a little, others a great deal.
D. is not true that British people are born jealous of others' success.
E. As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood”．
F. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.
G. This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.

One summer， a library in Texas was having a terrible problem. They had grown too big for their building and had to move to a brand­new library across town. Everything was finished and paid for， but they discovered that they hadn't left enough money to move their mountain of books across town. Even the cheapest moving company was going to charge several hundred thousand dollars to pack and transfer the books. What could they do？ Finally one smart librarian had a bright idea. She said that the move was going to take all summer and during that time， the library would be closed. Why not ask everyone to come in and borrow 20， 40 or 100 books？ At the end of the summer they could return them to the new library. The plan worked beautifully and not only did the library save a lot of money， but people read a lot more books. Think of an unusual solution to a problem you've faced， or tell another partner about a problem you're facing at the moment. Brainstorm possible solutions.

Dear Li Hua，
How are things with you? Today I'm writing to tell you something about Edinburgh which you asked about in the last e­mail.
Edinburgh, located in the southeast of Scotland, is the capital of Scotland as well as its political and cultural center. It covers an area of 264 square kilometers with a small population of about 460,000.
With the airport lying in the center of the city, it is convenient to go around. What's more, you can easily get wherever you are going using public transport. Edinburgh has a mild climate, which makes it one of the most popular tourism cities. It attracts more than 2 million tourists every year. What makes it unique is its splendid ancient architecture standing along streets, such as the Edinburgh Castle.
I would be more than happy to guide you around if you would pay a visit here.
Yours sincerely，
Harry
