第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）

第一节 (共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5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

Do you want to see majestic lions roaring, rare rhinos running and colorful birds flying? You’ll find this incredible display of nature in the Kenya Lake System in the Great Rift Valley.

First stop

Fly into Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. This great city is known for its fashion markets and beautiful art. And be sure to pick up some rich Kenyan coffee while you’re there! Then head for the countryside.

Plan your trip

The largest of the three lakes in the system, Lake Nakuru, is less than 175 kilometers from Nairobi. But Lakes Bogoria and Elementaita are equally worth a visit. You can stay at one of several choices of luxurious cabins in the valley. And if you sign up for a trip, be sure to put flamingos, the white and pink birds, at the top of your list.

Paradise

The Kenya Lake System is shallow and alkaline (碱性的). That means it supports vegetation such as green algae, a food source for many waterfowl. Hundreds of species of birds flourish here, using this area as a major breeding and nesting ground. Water buffalo, leopards, monkeys and the endangered Rothschild giraffe also make this area their home.

Other sights

Wildlife isn’t the only natural wonder in the Great Rift Valley. The valley marks a place where the earth is divided far below the surface. This rock separation below ground leads to noticeable features above ground. Walking around Lake Bogoria especially, you will see steam rising from hot springs.

Other activities include golfing, horseback riding and hiking. The fun doesn’t stop when the sun goes down, either. The river valley is far from city lights, so many visitors gaze at the stars shining above.

If you are ready for a wildlife experience, don’t hesitate!

21. Where can you buy fashionable gifts in Kenya?

A. Nairobi. B. Lake Nakuru. C. Lake Bogoria. D. Lake Elementaita.

22. Which should be the first choice on your travelling list?

A. Living in a cabin. B. Seeing flamingos.

C. Visiting hot springs. D. Gazing at shining stars.

23. What can we learn about the Kenya Lake System?

A. It has countless lakes worth visiting. B. It’s an ideal place for wildlife to live.

C. Its water is unsuitable for plant growth. D. It’s famous for rich culture and history.

B

On March 11, 2011, 16-year-old Yuzuru Hanyu was skating at a local rink when the ice beneath him began cracking. He was experiencing 2011’s deadly Great East Japan Earthquake, which had a magnitude of 9.0 and killed at least 18,500 people. The event left him with a greater determination to make every day count.

He was introduced to the world of figure skating at the age of 4. As he watched his sister skate, her coach suggested that the energetic little boy give skating a try. He loved the sport and entered his first competition at age 10. By the time he was 19, Hanyu had won two Olympic gold medals. This achievement made him the first Asian skater in the men’s singles category to be an Olympic champion.

What sets Hanyu apart from other competitive figure skaters? At 53 kilograms, he’s thin. But Hanyu is very strong and able to perfectly perform jumps and moves on the ice that others can only attempt. Hanyu’s performances feature long, smooth and high leg kicks. As he glides effortlessly across the ice, he sometimes looks more like a ballet dancer than a figure skater.When people watch Hanyu perform, it’s clear how much he enjoys himself, and the audiences love him in return. After many performances, people in the crowd shower Hanyu with his loved Pooh Bears.

There’s no denying Hanyu’s star power on the ice, but he’s admired off the ice as well. Since the deadly earthquake, Hanyu has helped raise funds for victims. Over the past 10 years, he has also personally given about US$300,000 to help rebuild the local ice rink in Sendai, Hanyu’s hometown. The little boy who started out at his neighborhood rink is now adored by people from around the globe.

24. Why does the author mention the earthquake in Paragraph 1?

We all dream of reaching a certain success someday. Because of this we all are afraid of the very same thing- failure. But we should understand that we all have to experience some sort of failure in our lives. It is part of growing up and it is part of life itself. Failure doesn't have to always be seen as something negative. When you get to see failure in a different perspective, you will see that it has the power to help you get to your goal.

Don't be so hard on yourself whenever you make a mistake or fail a task. Everyone makes mistakes. Whenever you face one failure, remember to accept your fault and do something to make things right. Whenever you fail something, you just have to get up and keep trying. You will get to your goal eventually.

Every mistake is a lesson you have to learn from. As the saying goes, “If you do something wrong for the first time, it is a mistake. But if it happens again, then it becomes a choice.” Your mistakes and failure make you wiser.

You should be smart enough to know and avoid the causes that lead you to them once more. No dream or goal is ever easy. With every great success, there are some failures along the way that lead to something great. Don't give up and don't be afraid to make mistakes. It is all part of the game of life.

Life is not a bed of roses. The journey to success will have its ups and downs and have its share of joy and suffering. You will encounter failure once in a while. But pain is part of the learning process. Failures and mistakes are experiences that will make you wiser and stronger as you climb the ladder of success.

28. What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To encourage people to think about failure positively.

B. To emphasize the importance of self-confidence.

C. To explain some meanings of achieving success.

D. To discuss the relation between failure and success.

29. What can we know from Paragraph 2?

A Everyone should pay for their mistakes. B. Failure makes success more meaningful.

C. Mistakes can bring people great benefits. D. It's common to make mistakes in daily life.

30. What does the author think of people who make the same mistakes again?

A. They are complete losers. B. They are not good learners.

C. They should not be forgiven. D. They need sympathy and support.

31. What does the underlined word “encounter” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A. Expect. B. Avoid. C. Experience. D. Appreciate.

D

The global population growing, the climate is warming, and, no surprise, the demand for energy is steadily increasing. We need to use less energy in any way that we can.

German design student Tobias Tribenbacher, from the University of the Arts Berlin, has created a street light called Papilio in response to global sustainability initiatives, saying that he initially chose to create a city-facing streetlight due to such lights’ role in tight pollution.

Papilio can be mounted to walls or set up as a freestanding lantern. The lamp should ideally be placed between three to six metres above ground, where ground-level winds are the strongest. The lamp is shaped like a pinwheel that acts as a wind turbine (涡轮), catching the wind to produce its own energy. It also has a rechargeable battery that stores electricity, so the lamp can operated even on less windy days.

Another key component of the lamp is the light itself. The warm- colored light doesn’t draw the attention of insects, and it uses an infrared(红外线的)sensor so that the light is only started by nearby motion, reducing its contribution to light pollution.

Aside from saving public space and beautifying streets, the streetlight’s design is also a visual signal of clean energy in action.“Design not only determines how street lights are working. It can also shape our attitude towards them and consequently affect how we use them,” Tobias Tribenbacher says.“Because energy creation is often an invisible process, projects such as these help the production of electricity become comprehensible.”

The lamp’s ability to change wind power into electricity can also be a huge benefit to naturally windy areas. And since it doesn’t require any electrical infrastructure (基础设施), there will be an opportunity to fix the street lights in remote settings or places where infrastructure innovations can be cost-prohibitive.

Just as lanterns create the character of streets and squares, Papilio is envisioned as a public sustainability statement that motivates residents to take part in transforming our cities into climate-friendly, future-proof environments.

32. Why did Tribenbacher choose to create the street light?

A. To tackle light pollution.

B. To reduce biodiversity loss.

C. To beautify the city he lives in.

D. To draw public attention to waste.

33. Which of the following is the feature of the street light?

A. It occupies a large space.

B. It can be fixed anywhere.

C. It is switched off by hand.

D. It is unattractive to insects.

34. What do Tribenbacher’s words in Paragraph5 imply?

A. The climate crisis is tough to address.

B. Design can facilitate our comprehension.

C. We must take action to save clean energy.

D. We know little about electricity generation.

35. What is the purpose of the text?

A. To stress the importance of innovation.

B. To introduce a wind- powered street light.

C. To advocate environmental sustainability.

D. To analyze the sustainability of the street light.

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，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。

It is a common sight to see a teacher standing in front of the white board giving explanations. Occasionally, some topics do require such a teacher-centered lesson. ____36____ They can neither remember nor recall the teachings of the day. How can this boredom be beaten?

Cooperative learning is one effective classroom practice to make the lessons attractive and learners active. Interaction is key to any form of learning. Cooperative learning allows students to interact constructively in small groups to complete a structured task. ____37____

Cooperative learning is a learning style that promotes the four core skills: cooperation through team effort, communication through face-to-face interactions, critical thinking and creativity through reasoning and problem solving. Teachers are no longer the only source of information. The success of an assignment is dependent on combined efforts. ____38____ Each member assigned a specific role or task must contribute to the completion of the team assignment to ensure equal distribution of labour.

However, cooperative learning is not always smooth sailing. One main struggle would be personality conflicts. If passive and shy students are paired with perfectionists, the latter may end up dominating to the point of ruling out their chicken teammates. ____39____ The tendency to communicate just amongst themselves will lead to the shy students being left out, putting them at a disadvantage again.

____40____ It shapes students to become active learners. Indeed, a constant cooperative learning environment equips young minds to become successful grown-ups in an increasingly diverse and interdependent world.

A. Individual responsibility is equally important too.

B. With teachers’ help students can understand them better.

C. However, if it is a daily routine, pupils will soon get bored.

D. Students in groups of three or four work together to do a task.

E. Another obstacle occurs when certain members are well familiar.

Zaib grew up in a single-parent family. Her mother worked in an office as a receptionist but she admitted her only daughter to one of the best schools of the city.

Two days ago, Zaib refused to take her lunch.

“Zaib, Honey! Is everything alright? Why you didn’t take your lunch? Didn’t you feel any hunger? ” Rohana, her mother asked.

“I didn’t like it. A friend of mine was having dairy chocolate. I want these”, Zaib said in an offended mood.

“No problem. We will get these next week, I promise”, she tried to convince her.

“No, I need them today.” she said in an angry manner and rushed towards the room.

Rohana wasn’t having her salary for two months because her company had fallen into crises. Now, she was a bit tense about her daughter’s demand and wondered what to do.

Next day, Zaib didn’t eat anything and rushed to school. The girl with dairy chocolate was none other than her cousin, Saddaf. For the whole day, she was upset, thinking about her mother. She thought her mother didn’t love her deep, and that was why she didn’t meet her demand. When school bell rang, she decided to go to Saddaf’s house.

In Saddaf’s room, they did their homework, and then played. Her aunt Mrs. Saba prepared meal for both of them. “Aunt Saba is much better than Mummy”, she thought. Mrs. Saba told her that her mother had to work till late at night, so she could stay with them that night. She gladly accepted this offer.

Next day, she thought aunt Saba would pack some dairy chocolate in her lunch box, but Mrs. Saba just asked her to take breakfast. Neither did she ask her to bring her lunch box nor did she fill her box with chocolates. Her home was nearby, so she asked aunt Saba to drop her at her home where she might meet her mummy and bring her lunch. Saba aunt ordered her driver to do so. She was astonished to see her mother’s red eyes, and pale face due to heavy work till late at night.
