My favorite book The Secret by Rhonda Byrne, talks about a formula called “SFF” which stands for “stopping finding faults”. I used to be a critical person and tried to find faults. I guess I somehow inherited this character from my father. Actually, many good qualities of my father are worth admiring except this.
My father is the person who constantly looks for mistakes in other people and he thinks no one is perfect in the world. His character created a negative atmosphere in my family. I was the same as my father, so I often felt angry, disappointed, depressed, and lonely in school.
After I had read my favorite book I began to seek “good things” in other people. It has completely changed my life. Now I feel happier, I have more friends, I have more trust in people, and I realize everyone has their own strength! Another important lesson I got from this book is that I should always behave myself in a positive manner. Let’s admit that we sometimes complain about our situation. That’s not good. “Believe it or not, people don’t like to listen to negative opinions.”
One more valuable lesson I got from the book is that I should be a good listener. When I was younger, I only wanted people to pay whole attention to my words so that I could show them how important I was. I was very proud and would show off my achievements in school without considering others’ feeling. I had very few friends and most people considered me as an “arrogant” person. Now, I find it mush easier to make friends after making some changes!
39. Why does the author like the book The Secret?
A. Because he’s found the secret of success from it.
B. Because the book uncovers the secrets of happiness.
C. Because he’s learnt his father’s characters from it.
D. Because it helps him change his attitude towards life.
40. What do you know about the author’s father?
A. He makes his son feel angry and disappointed.
B. He likes finding faults with people around him.
C. He seems a critical person but in fact easy-going.
D. He can create a negative atmosphere when necessary.
41. The underlined word “arrogant” probably means “______”.
A. self-important B. admirable
C. troublesome D. cold-blooded
42. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To persuade readers to be good listeners.
B. To share his painful changing experience.
C. To tell readers the influence of a book on him.
D. To show the result of his father’s negative character.
【答案】39. D 40. B 41. A 42. C
【解析】
【分析】文章主要介绍了一本书使作者由原来的傲慢、自以为是，变得友好、随和、积极乐观。
【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段After I had read my favorite book I began to seek “good things” in other people. It has completely altered my life. Now I feel happier, I have more friends, I have more trust in people, and I realize everyone has their own strength!可知，作者读了这本书之后，改变了自己对生活的态度，故D正确。

【41题详解】

It seems that the Englishmen just cannot live without sports of some kind. A famous French humorist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?
Taking all amateur(业余)and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game originated(起源于)in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.
The next is rugby, which is called “football” in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.
In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.
Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world.
Table tennis, or “ping-pong”, surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.
43. The main purpose of Paragraph l is to tell us that the English__________.
A. are all sports lovers B. behave like children
C. like to kick a ball around D. can remain young all their lives
44. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?
A. They differ in the shape of the ball. B. They are played by different numbers of players.
C. They both can be handled. D. They both can be kicked.
45. The game that was never played in Britain until the late 19th century is__________.
A. basketball B. tennis C. rugby D. football
46. What would be the best title for this passage?
A. The Most Popular Sports B. The English Sports
C. History of Sports D. Sports in Britain
【答案】43. A 44. C 45. A 46. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要说明了英国人热爱运动，似乎他们离开运动就无法生存。还介绍了英国人的足球，橄榄球，板球，网球及乒乓球运动。
【43题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一句“It seems that the Englishmen just cannot live without sports of some kind.”可知，英国人离开运动之后似乎就无法生存。及此段第三句“Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls!”可知英国到处都可以看到在运动的人。因此说明了英国人都是运动爱好者。故选A项。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段对橄榄球的介绍“It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked.”可知橄榄球是一个椭圆形的球，据常识知足球是圆形，因此A选项正确；橄榄球每队15人而不是11人，因此B选项正确；橄榄球既可手传又可脚传，而足球只可脚传，因此D选项正确。故选C项。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。由最后一段“Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity.”（19世纪末，篮球和排球从美国传入英国，并越来越受欢迎。）因此直到19世纪英国人才开始打篮球。故选A项。
【46题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段说明了英国人热爱运动，似乎他们离开运动就无法生存。第二段开始直到最后一段介绍了英国人玩的体育运动，有足球，橄榄球，板球，网球及乒乓球运动。因此D项（在英国的体育运动）为最佳标题。故选D项。
【点睛】主旨大意题解题技巧
(1) 要在阅读原文基础上，仔细考虑选项是否与文章主题有密切联系；
(2) 再看选项对文章的概括性或覆盖面如何；
(3) 要注意题目是否过大或者过小；
(4) 要避免下列三种错误：概括不够(多表现为部分代整体，导致范围过小)、过度概括(多表现为扩大范围)、以事实、细节代替抽象概括的大意。
如第4小题，要求选择最佳标题，A项（最流行的运动）作为标题概括不够，B项（英国体育）作为标题过度概括，C项（体育运动的历史）概括不够，除介绍历史之外，还有每项运动的流行程度。故选择D项为最佳标题。
D
What is your calling? What is your purpose in life? What did you come to this world to do? Every day we read about how we should find our purpose and pursue it throughout our lives in order to find meaning and contentment. There are even scientific studies that show people who view their work as a calling rather than just a career or a job have a higher life and work satisfaction. So, what exactly is this calling?
I’ve personally struggled with this concept for many years. I knew that happiness not only came from a present state of joy, but also from the pursuit of an objective that gave me something to pursue. That is, until I found myself feeling empty despite my achievement of those goals.
And as I reflected on these feelings of emptiness and boredom that had arisen despite my successes, I realized something. Meaning and satisfaction come from a personal devotion to what we do and the intrinsic (固有的) fulfillment we get from it. It has nothing to do with financial gain, social advancement or any other type of external reward or motivation. It is about doing something that we love. It is about focusing our efforts and spending our time on passions that light the spark inside of us and allow us to share with the world the unique gifts we possess.
I had never before stopped to think about what I found intrinsically rewarding or fulfilling. Financial gain and external recognition were pretty much the only drivers I knew. More so, I thought this calling meant having one passion we were born with to pursue relentlessly (不懈地).
So, I spent some years trying to find this long-lost purpose of mine. I discovered during that time passions I had no idea I even had. Yet, I wasn’t sure how to make them into my life purpose. I searched for an answer but couldn’t find it. It wasn’t until I came to understand the truths about our purpose in life that I was able to find my place in this world.
Our purpose can consist of various things that make us feel alive. As we grow and evolve throughout the different stages in our lives, we may discover new passions and desires that change our sense of purpose and calling.
We all have a longing for lives that give meaning to our existence. The difference lies in how we go about accomplishing this. We must each find our own “shine” and then shine on.
47. According to the passage, the calling refers to________.
A. one’s view about careers
B. a task one has to carry out
C. a life-long career one chooses
D. a strong desire or sense of duty to do a job
48. Which of the following belongs to the author’s previous drivers for finding fulfillment?
A. Financial gain and external recognition.
B. Pursuing passions relentlessly.
C Discovering new passions.
D. Finding purpose in life.
49. What is the real purpose in life according to the author?
A. Trying to do everything that you can.
B. Trying to achieve your ambitious goals.
C. Doing meaningful things with your passion.
D. Doing something that can be successful easily.
50. According to the 5th paragraph, we know that________.
A. the author spent some years making changes
B. the author used to think he had no passion at all
C. the author didn’t know how to search for the life purpose
D. the author has known his passions since he started to work
51. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?
A. It’s wise to give up discovering our one true passion.
B. It’s useless to pursue financial gain and external recognition.
C. It’s necessary to find our own calling and pursue it with vigor.
D. It’s important to share our passion with the world without stopping.
【答案】47. D 48. A 49. C 50. B 51. C

【50题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五自然段“I discovered during that time passions I had no idea I even had. Yet, I wasn’t sure how to make them into my life purpose. (在那段时间里，我发现了我甚至不知道自己有过的激情。然而，我不知道如何让它们成为我的人生目标。)”可知，根据第5段可知，作者过去认为他一点激情都没有。故选B。

推理判断题。根据最后一段“We all have a longing for lives that give meaning to our existence. The difference lies in how we go about accomplishing this. We must each find our own “shine” and then shine on. (我们都渴望能够赋予我们存在意义的生活。不同之处在于我们如何实现这一点。我们每个人都必须找到自己的“闪光点”，然后发光发热。)”可知，从本文我们可以总结出，我们每个人要找到自己的使命，并充满活力地追求它。故选C。

第二节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读下面的短文，并根据短文内容回答后面的问题。
We all know eating out can be a lot of fun. There’s the experience of having someone wait on your every need, the social aspect of being in a restaurant with friends and, of course, the great benefit of the lack of in-home cleanup.
We all also know eating out can be expensive, and I’m pretty sure college isn’t the most financially successful time in a normal person’s life. That’s why eating at home for a majority of meals really is the only option for many college students.
Eating at home doesn’t have to be dull, boring, or difficult. It can and should be an energetic, creative experience that transforms the way you look at food. When you cook for yourself, you know exactly how your pasta(意大利面) is going to turn out. You know where the greens in your salad come from. You know the olive oil you’re using really comes from olives that are pressed for the first time. Use eating at home as an opportunity to learn and develop your kitchen sills I promise you they will remain useful and rewarding for the rest of your life.
Another important concept is to keep in mind that when it comes to shopping for food——less quantity, more quality. Buy base ingredients that are fresh, as local as possible and beautiful, and anything you cook will improve greatly. I promise you will be just as satisfied by eating a little bit less of something with a lot more quality.
I am not saying eating out is a bad thing. But I insist there are many more places that are not worth your cash. Put a little more effort into cooking for yourself at home and you will gain experience and appreciation for the world of food.
62. List at least two benefits of eating out according to the text. (No more than 15 words)
________________
63. What does the underlined word “option” most probably mean? (1 word)
________________
64. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about? (No more than 7 words)
________________
65. What advice is given concerning shopping for food in Paragraph 4? ( No more than 4 words)
________________
66. Do you like eating at home? Give your own reasons. (No more than 25 words)
________________
【答案】62. The waiters can wait on you and you can stay with your friends.
63. Choice./Selection./Alternative.
64. The advantages/benefits of eating at home.
65. Less quantity, more quality.
66. Yes, I do. Because eating at home is better for our health. Cooking our own food can keep the ingredients healthy and clean.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了外出就餐和在家就餐各自的好处，并对在家就餐购买食材给出一些建议。
【62题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段中“There’s the experience of having someone wait on your every need, the social aspect of being in a restaurant with friends and, of course, the great benefit of the lack of in-home cleanup. (有人为你的每一个需求服务的体验，有一种和朋友在餐馆里的社交体验，当然，还有一种不需要在家里做清理的巨大好处。)”可知，在外就餐的好处是服务员可以为你服务、可以和朋友待在一起、不必做清理工作。故答案为The waiters can wait on you and you can stay with your friends.
【63题详解】
考查词句猜测。划线词句前文“We all also know eating out can be expensive, and I’m pretty sure college isn’t the most financially successful time in a normal person’s life.(我们都知道在外面吃饭很贵，而且我很确定大学不是普通人生活中最赚钱的时期。)”说明大学生没钱在外面吃饭，常选择在家吃饭，从而推知划线词句“That’s why eating at home for a majority of meals really is the only option for many college students.(这就是为什么大多数时候在家吃饭真的是许多大学生的唯一选择。)”其中划线词应为“选择”的意思。故答案为Choice./Selection./Alternative。
【64题详解】
考查主旨大意。根据第三段中“Eating at home doesn’t have to be dull, boring, or difficult. It can and should be an energetic, creative experience that transforms the way you look at food.(在家吃饭并不一定是枯燥、无聊或困难的。它可以也应该是一种充满活力、创造性的体验，改变你看待食物的方式。)”以及“Use eating at home as an opportunity to learn and develop your kitchen sills I promise you they will remain useful and rewarding for the rest of your life.(把在家吃饭作为一个学习和发展你的厨房技能的机会，我向你保证，它们将在你的余生中是有用的和有益的。)”可知，本段主要介绍了在家吃饭的好处。故答案为The advantages/benefits of eating at home。
【65题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第四段中“Another important concept is to keep in mind that when it comes to shopping for food——less quantity, more quality. (另一个重要的概念是要记住，当谈到购买食物时——少数量，多质量。)”可知，本段关于购买食物给出的建议是数量要少，质量要高。故答案为Less quantity, more quality。
【66题详解】
考查阅读表达。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了外出就餐和在家就餐的好处。根据问题，可以肯定在家吃饭的好处。表示自己喜欢在家吃饭，因为在家吃饭对我们的健康更有益，自己做饭可以保持食材的健康和清洁。故答案为Yes, I do. Because eating at home is better for our health. Cooking our own food can keep the ingredients healthy and clean。
