第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
For centuries people have wondered who was the model for Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa and what was the reason for her smile. But the Mona Lisa is just one of the many mysteries in the art world. Here are some other notable unsolved art mysteries that might be a little less familiar.
Mystery 1: Who Is the Girl in Johannes Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring?
Around 1665, Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer painted a charming portrait of a young girl. People around the globe have long wondered who this fetching young lady was.
Many say she must have been Vermeer's daughter or girlfriend. Others think she wasn't a real person, but rather an intentionally mysterious, timeless figure. The painting, referred to as the"Mona Lisa of the North", has been part of The Hague's permanent collection since 1903. But it draws record-breaking crowds whenever and wherever it tours around the world.
Mystery 2: Where Is Raphael's Portrait of a Young Man?
Portrait of a Young Man is considered one of the most important pieces of art to go missing during World War II. The painting was created around 1513 by Raphael, a famous Italian Renaissance artist, and stolen from Poland's Princes Czartoryski Museum in 1939.
The portrait had traveled to Germany and Austria before it was gone in 1945.
Mystery 3: Was Van Gogh Murdered?
One of the main things people know about Vincent van Gogh is that he cut off his ear. That was likely because the Dutch post-impressionist painter suffered from mental illness, probably severe depression. The official cause is suicide from a gun shot at close range.
That certainly seems plausible(貌似有理的), given his poor mental health. However, no gun was found near his body, and locals reported two teenage boys bullying him shortly before his death.
21. What do Portrait of a Young Man and Girl with a Pearl Earring have in common?
A. They are both gone. B. They were created at the same period.
C. They are both portraits. D. They are both related to World War II.
22. Who probably suffered from mental illness?
A. Vincent van Gogh. B. Leonardo da Vinci. C. Johannes Vermeer. D. Raphael.
23. Who is likely to be more interested in this selection?
A. Book reviewers. B. Art lovers. C. Tour guides. D. Music composers.

One of the three astronauts who made up the historic Apollo 11 crew, NASA veteran Michael Collins passed away today, April 28, 2021, at the age of 90.
Collins was born on Oct.31,1930, in Rome, Italy. His father, a career officer in the US. Army who'd go on to retire as a major general, was stationed there at the time. After his family returned stateside. Collins earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the US. Military Academy at West Point, graduating with the class of 1952. He then became an Air Force test pilot, which opened some interesting doors. In 1962, John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth. Glenn's achievement was an inspiration for Collins. "I certainly had no childhood dream of flying to the moon or anywhere else, but the idea was extremely appealing," Collins wrote in his autobiography Carrying the Fire: An Astronaut's Journeys. He was selected to join NASA's third class of astronauts the following year. His first extraterrestrial(地球外的) adventure came in 1966, when Collins set about on a three-day spaceflight with fellow astronaut John Young. Known as Gemini X, their mission was one for the record books; the two men reached the then-unprecedented(前所未有的) altitude of 475 miles(764 kilometers).
Of course, Michael Collins is best remembered for his role in Apollo 11. On July 16, 1969, at 8:32 am (Eastern Standard Time), Collins, Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were launched out of the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. They were the three explorers NASA had chosen for the first mission that would ever put a man on the moon. Four days into their adventure, on July 20, Collins parted ways with his crewmates. Seated in the Eagle landing craft, Armstrong and Aldrin made their landing onto the lunar surface. An American flag was planted; photos were taken. Armstrong said the immortal words, "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."
Meanwhile, Collins stayed behind in the crew's command module(舱), orbiting the moon as his colleagues explored it.
24. What motivated Collins to dream of flying to the moon?
A. His father's encouragement. B. His favorite book.
C. His childhood experiences. D. John Glenn's achievement.
25. What can we learn about Collins from paragraph 2?
A. He became the first American to orbit Earth.
B. He once wrote an autobiography.
C. His first space exploration was accomplished by himself.
D. He dreamed of flying to the moon in his childhood.
26. Why is Collins best-known to many people until now?
A. He participated in the work of Apollo 11.
B. He became an Air Force test pilot.
C. He was praised by Armstrong.
D. He reached the then-unprecedented altitude of 475 miles.
27. Which word can be best used to describe Collins?
A. Warmhearted. B. Lucky. C. Ambitious. D. Humorous.
C
Half of all Australian teens now spend more time, or as much time, online with their friends rather than seeing them in person. This is despite the fact that one third of boys and 42 percent of girls say social media makes hard times even more tough. Teenagers who went from using social media weekly to daily had a higher risk of depression and anxiety, the researchers found. New research from the Australian Institute of Family Studies has renewed concerns about the impact of screen time on teenagers' mental health.
The findings showed 46 per cent of 16-year-olds and 36 per cent of 14-year-olds spent the same time contacting friends via Snapchat, video gaming, Instagram or TikTok as seeing them face-to-face. The findings also showed 7 percent of 16-year-olds and 5 percent of 14-year-olds mainly interacted with friends electronically. The highest percentage of children who communicated with friends mostly via social media were 16-year-olds with autism (自闭症), the researchers found. The study, which has followed 10,000 children since 2004, surveyed 14 and 15-year-olds and 16 and 17-year-olds about the time they spent online.
Australian Institute of Family Studies researcher Pilar Rioseco said, "The platforms young people are using to commune have changed significantly and digital devices such as mobile phones have become more readily available to adolescents."
"The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way that many young people connect, with many having to rely heavily on digital technologies to keep in touch with friends and family." Dr Rioseco also found that a quarter of teens were victims of cyber-bullying, including threats and name calling. A quarter of those with autism said being online made it easier to be themselves and almost half said being online helped them feel better during difficult times.
Dr Rioseco said online connection "appears to have benefits for some young people in terms of helping social connection and providing support during difficult times". "Providing young people with the skills to communicate safely online and deal with cyber-bullying is critical." she added.
28. What does the new research show?
A. 36% of 14-year-olds mostly communicated with friends online.
B. 46% of 16-year-olds mostly communicated with friends online.
C. 36% of 14-year-olds spent equal time with friends online and offline.
D. 7% of 16-year-olds spent equal time with friends online and offline.
29. What can best replace the underlined word "commune" in paragraph 3?
A. update B. defend C. learn D. connect
30. What may one-fourth teenagers with autism think of online connection?
A. It is a main threat to them. B. It makes them at ease.
C. It cures them of the disease. D. It makes them experience more difficult times.
31. How can we help the teenagers according to Dr Rioseco?
A. By teaching them to protect themselves online.
B. By allowing them to connect more online.
C. By providing them with more Internet languages.
D. By offering them more platforms to communicate.

Water shortage is occurring in some of the US' biggest freshwater reserves and it is also evident in other parts of the planet, according to a research study published in the journal Nature last month.
The research study was conducted by Xander Huggins, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria and his fellow researchers.
The Earth has less than 3% freshwater with only 1% is accessible to the growing human population. Both natural freshwater reserves and freshwater in reservoirs may be at risk if their amount continues to drop and the population continues to increase. In 2021, there are approximately 7.9 billion people by January 31, according to the United States Census Bureau. The research study found 34 trends in terrestrial(地面上的) water reserves observed by the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment(GRACE) satellites from 2002 to 2016. These trends were acquired when the researchers examined 1,024 basins across the world with the goal of understanding how water availability couples with social processes in the community.
According to Huggins, the main factor they studied were freshwater stress, which is related to the amount of H2O that naturally leaves the watershed or basin per year. The higher the stress or exit of water from the basin means that there will be less water available for ecosystems and for people's demands, Huggins explains. The significance of the study can be of interest not only to water specialists and water conservators but also to government policy-makers. Huggins stated that after mapping the most high-risk freshwater sources and creating a framework to identify hotspot basins, policy makers will be able to prioritize a specific location.
Huggins shows that while the US score highly in terms of social adaptiveness based on the study's freshwater stress factor, the country has many freshwater concerns that goes the beyond between freshwater stress and freshwater storage. The states of Illinois and Ohio have the highest levels of lead(铅) pipes carrying water from freshwater basins to residential households. Meanwhile in Colorado, an estimate from the Colorado Water Center predicts there will be a 20% to 30% less water of the Colorado River Basin by 2050.
32. Why did Huggins and his team examine the basins all over the world?
A. To understand how water availability is related with social processes.
B. To figure out the number of basins across the world.
C. To learn its pollution of the recent years across the world.
D. To settle the shortage of freshwater in the USA.
33. What does Huggins base his framework for high-risk freshwater sources on?
A. Policy makers' requirements. B. People's demands.
C. His team's assumption. D. Freshwater stress.
34. What can be inferred about the freshwater in Illinois and Ohio?
A. The water pipes are too expensive.
B. The storage of freshwater decreases most sharply.
C. The consumption of freshwater gives threats to food security.
D. The water carried to households may be polluted by lead.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. These Are the Most Threatened Freshwater Reserves
B. The US Is Losing Some of Its Biggest Natural Reserves
C. We Are Facing Terrible Water Shortage on Some Biggest Freshwater Reserves
D. Water Crisis: Planet's Freshwater Reserves Are Seriously Polluted

How to Average Results from a Student Survey
Student surveys provide a lot of information that school administrators can learn from. 36 The students' attitude towards their programs and services can be measured by averaging the results from the survey. Here's how to average these results.
37 The student survey must be purposeful and should acquire specific responses from students about specific school programs or services. If the survey is well designed to persuade honest answers from students, then the survey will achieve the best results.
After all the survey questionnaires have been filled and returned, the results can now be tabulated(制成表格). 38 To get the average from the student survey results, each answer must be added and the sum should be divided by the total number of student forms. This is the average number of respondents who answered a certain way.
On a survey question that provides levels of satisfaction, respondents can answer with numeric values(数值), from 1 to 10, according to how satisfied they are. If five forms were given and returned values of 2, 2, 5, 5 and 3, the sum would be 17 and then dividing that by 5 will get you an average satisfaction rating of 3. 4. 39
40 In the above satisfaction level survey, answer choices can be represented with a tick on "Yes" or "No". Out of fifty students who were given survey forms, about 45 students answered "No", rating 90 percent, and the remaining 5 answered "Yes", rating 10 percent.
Using numeric values is a simple way for respondents to rate questions or statements and would be easier to average the results at the end of the survey.
A. Answer choices can be designed in many ways.
B. The goals for conducting a survey must be clear.
C. First of all, handout student survey questionnaires.
D. The average can also be expressed as a percentage.
E. Then an average for each question can be calculated.
F. It means students aren't satisfied with the surveyed subject.
G. School managements can be improved through student feedback.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I had to come on to UC Irvine's campus to accompany a friend to a meeting. In the parking lot, I gave him a smile card and explained my idea. We each were supposed to make a stranger smile, pass on the card, and meet up to share the story of what happened.
To complete it, we were in a shopping area of the campus surrounded by young, smiling, mostly rich people. "No worries," I said as I pulled out my laptop to look for a wireless signal that we could use to hunt for ideas. The only problem was that there was no empty tables to sit at. Just then we spotted an older man. He was sitting alone and enjoying a drink and a cigarette.
"Excuse me, sir, do you mind if we sit here?" I asked. "Not at all," responded this fellow. I went inside to get a paper napkin to wipe off the table, as my friend initiated conversation. We talked happily with the man. That's when I told him our scheme and handed a smile card to him too. I told him that spreading smile was my experiment in bridging the gap with what I see missing in so many places. It was an experiment in building more connectivity and happiness in the world.
My friend thought that guy was our mark. He insisted we should do it separately. He went off to his meeting with a card, and I went off to find my real tag. Then I found a woman.
Middle-aged and overweight, she looked slightly depressed as she was eating her boxed Chinese lunch among the young and the beautiful. I went up with some candies bought in a dessert shop nearby.
"Hello. Can I buy you dessert today?" I asked. "Why?" she asked, laughing with surprise. "I just wanted to make someone's day today and felt like it should be you."
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
"Oh, thank you so much," she said.


Hearing her bad luck, I smiled and handed her the smile card.

W: Scientists are trying to make the desert into good land again. They want to bring water to the desert, so people can live and grow crops. They are learning a lot about the desert. But more and more of the earth is becoming desert all the time. Scientists may not be able to change the desert in time. Why is more and more land becoming desert? Scientists think people are doing bad things to the earth. Some places on the earth don't get much rain. But they still don't become desert. This is because some green plants are growing there. Small green plants and grass are very important to dry places. Plants don't let the sun make the earth even drier. Plants don't let the wind blow the dirt away. When a bit of rain falls, the plants hold the water. Without plants, the land can become desert easily.

参考范文:
An exhibition of Chinese paintings and calligraphy
Recently, our school organized us to visit a city cultural exhibition. The exhibition was held on Friday afternoon and lasted two hours in the city cultural hall.
The exhibition whose theme was "Chinese painting and calligraphy" attracted many masters and amateurs at home and abroad. Many artworks including Chinese handwriting and landscape painting from ancient and modern times were on show. The host explained every artwork on the spot.
The exhibition left a deep impression on me. In my opinion, it not only promoted the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture but also strengthened our national pride as well.

"Oh, thank you so much," she said. Her laughter changed from surprised to pleased and grateful. "It couldn't have come at a better time. I was having such a bad day. I had my wallet stolen when going to work in the morning. Worse still, I made a big mistake in my job, which made me fined $100 for that." Pausing for a while, she continued, "But your act of kindness spirits me up, and I feel better now."
Hearing her bad luck, I smiled and handed her the smile card. "What's this? "she asked. After I explained to her what the smile card was, she cried with joy. "Oh, it is a great idea! Can I do something for someone else too? I am sure that there is someone who is suffering tough thing like me! Thank you so much. I hope you have a fantastic day," she said her farewell and I waited for my friend to return and shared our stories.
