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
Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help you with ways to cut your costs.
AVOID BIG EVENTS
Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (21 Oct.) cost £169.15 at Booking. com. A week later, the same room cost £118.15.
If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.
STAY AWAY FROM THE STATION
It traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the convenience at the start of your holiday.
Don’t be too choosy (挑剔的) about the part of town you stay in. If you book two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday, 24 September was £95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was £75.75. And at Farringdon, a double

room cost just £ 62.95.
LOOK AFTER YOURSELF
Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost so much, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative, consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city center buildings. A great example is the historic O’Neill Flat on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, available for £ 420 for five days in late September, with rooms for four adults.
GET ON A BIKE
London’s “Boris bikes” have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programs that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.
Among the smaller cities with their own programs are Newcastle (casual members pay around £1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or £5 per day).
1. How much did a traveler pay for a standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on October 29?
A. £75.75. B. £95.95. C. £118.15. D. £169. 15.
2. Where is the historic O’Neill Flat located?
A. Newcastle. B. London. C. Cardiff. D. Edinburgh.
3. What is one of the reasons why you are advised to rent a bike according to the text?
A. There are often traffic jams.
B. It is completely free to make use of a bike.
C. You can travel around the city as you like.
D. You can do exercise and build up your body.
B
William Berloni, 59, is Broadway’s dog expert. He trains and manages dogs for musicals and plays that need a well-behaved dog. He also works for movies and TV shows with all kinds of animals, including cats, pigs, sheep, snakes and rats. His retired (退休的) actors, including 30 dogs that have acted in shows, live with him and his wife on a farm in Connecticut.
When he was a kid, Berloni’s main playmates were his dog, cat and rabbit. But he says he never thought he would become a professional animal trainer. He always wanted to be an actor. But while working as an assistant for the Broadway play Annie in 1976, he was given the job of finding a dog to play Sandy.
Berloni visited an animal shelter, where lost dogs and other pets were kept until they were adopted(收养). The shelter took in so many animals that pets which were not quickly adopted were killed. “I did not know that some animals were killed,” said Berloni, who adopted a dog on the day when it was supposed to be killed
The dog, which Berloni named Sandy, turned out to be a perfect “actor” after a little training. The pair learned from each other, and Berloni became better and better as a trainer. Sandy starred in almost all of the show’s 2,377 Broadway plays and enjoyed retirement on Berloni’s farm in 1983.
Since then, Berloni kept finding good dogs from animal shelters and the dogs all acted well in shows. How can Berloni train so many good dogs? “Love is the big motivator(动力),” he said.
4. What did Berloni always hope to do in the past?
A. Act in films or plays. B. Direct films or plays.
C. Train animals professionally. D. Volunteer in an animal shelter.
5. What do we know about Sandy?
A. Sandy died on Berloni’s farm in 1983.
B. Berloni left Sandy in the animal shelter.
C. Berloni adopted Sandy before it became an actor.
D. Sandy was Berloni’s pet long before he worked for the play Annie.
6. How was Sandy’s training before it became an excellent actor?
A. It was trained for quite a long time.
B. It learned acting skills fairly easily.
C. It was unwilling to receive training at first.
D. It was rather hard for it to learn new acting skills.
7. How did Berloni treat his dogs?
A. Very carefully. B. Quite badly. C. Rather carelessly. D. So impatiently.
C
A few years ago, my sister-in-law started to feel concerned about her teenage daughter. What was she doing after school? Where was she spending her time? My niece was an excellent student, and took part in all kinds of after-class activities. Even so, her mom decided to put a tracking app (跟踪应用程序) on her kid’s phone.
At first, this made my sister-in-law “feel better”. Then the good situation suddenly ended. She recalled, “I found out that she was at a place where she said she wasn’t. I went out in the middle of the night and found her walking without shoes in the middle of the street with some friends.” Things went quickly downhill (每况愈下) for the mother and the daughter after that.
With 83% of teens having their own smart phones, according to a 2020 Pew study, more and more of their parents are facing the question: To watch or not?
Ana Homayoun, founder of Green Ivy Educational Consulting, has advised many parents and their kids about this. “I’ve found the tracking app is more acceptable (可接受的) for teens when it is included as part of a family agreement to improve safety than when it is placed as a secret tool to watch them,” she said.
Mark Bell, a father of a teenage girl, said, “We don’t have tracking apps, but we have set some ground rules that my daughter must follow in exchange for us providing a smart phone,” he said. For example, his daughter must “friend (加为好友)” him on social media so that he can read posts, and must share all passwords.
When you’re trying to build trust, you need to create an environment that encourages it. So, to win their trust, you always need to be straight with (对……坦诚的) your children. “Parents must let children know how and when they’ll be watching them,” said Doctor Pauleh Weigle. If they’re not open about it, he warns, it can “greatly damage the parent and child relationship”.
8. What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A. The author’s niece sometimes lied to her mother.
B. The author’s niece did worse and worse in her studies.
C. The author’s niece always followed her mother’s orders.
D. The author’s niece liked the tracking app on her phone.
9. What did Ana Homayoun suggest parents use the tracking app for?
A. Their kids’ relations. B. Their kids’ secrets.
C. Their kids’ health. D. Their kids’ security.
10. How can Mark Bell’s daughter have a smart phone?
A. She ought to earn money to pay for it.
B. She must follow some ground rules.
C. She should put a tracking app on her phone.
D. She has to tell him where she is anytime.
11. What is Doctor Pauleh Weigle’s opinion about parents using a tracking app?
A. Letting them check their children’s phones often.
B. Teaching their children how to use their phones better.
C. Telling their children to use their phones less and less.
D. Making their children know how and when they will watch them.
D
LOS ANGELES—There are 69,144 people experiencing homelessness in Los Angeles, the most populous (人口稠密的) county (县) in the United States, according to the results of the 2022 Homeless Count released by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) on Thursday.
The number marks a 4.1 percent rise from the last count in 2020, said the authority, adding that a count was not conducted in 2021 in the county, home to around 10 million residents, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The authority noted that “Angelenos(洛杉矶人) need more affordable homes and economic help to prevent future increases in homelessness.”

Thanks to a 62 percent increase in shelter(居所) beds since 2019, more people are in shelter than ever before, said the agency, adding that “shelter is a necessary and key part of our system because bringing people inside protects them from the destructive effects on their health and safety that comes. from experiencing unsheltered homelessness.”
Los Angeles has one of the highest rates of unemployment and homelessness in the United States, according to usabynumbers.com. The website reported in June that the total number of homeless people in the United States is over 553,000, and that’s 170 out of every 100,000 people experiencing homelessness in the country right now.

B. The most practical way to raise money for the homeless.
C. The useful measure to deal with the problem of homelessness.
D. The reasons why there are so many homeless people in the county.
14. Which can replace the underlined word “unemployment” in the last paragraph?

15. What can be a suitable title for the news report?

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There are countless articles online that will give you advice on how to deal with homesickness. Here are some of my favorite tips that have helped me.
____16____
Learn to cook with your friends or find new places to eat. Eating with friends makes things so much better. It’s a way to bond and an excuse to get closer. You even get rewarded for it.
Call home — but not every minute of every day.
I saw so many online sources express it in this way, “Talk to your parents—but not too much. Call home—but not too often.” ____17____ However, it’s a problem when you’re talking to them so much that it’s stopping you from having real experiences in this new place.
Explore.
____18____ It took me a while to do this because I focused so much on my studies, but it’s really important. To me, being homesick was a sign that I needed to organize my time better. So I could take a break and go for a walk.
Find a way to deal with your emotions.
I got a guitar during my sophomore (大学二年级) year of university because that’s what I like doing when I’m by myself. I keep a journal because it makes me feel better and productive if I need time by myself but I don’t want to feel lonely.
An outlet (发泄方式) for your emotions can take any shape or form. Whatever it is, it’s important that you find a way to deal with your emotions. Don’t avoid them, but try to understand them. ____19____ If you focus too much on the negatives, you might forget to see the positives.
Talk to someone.
There is nothing wrong with finding someone to talk to about how you’re feeling. ____20____ Or it may mean talking to a counselor (顾问) if that’s what you think you need.
There is nothing wrong with being homesick. It’s normal. It’s part of the experience. We all feel things differently, but everything you learn while you are abroad will help you grow.
A. Make food from your home country.
B. Going abroad may cost you a lot of money.
C. It’s good to keep in touch with your family and friends.
D. It’s also a good way to distract(使分心) you in a healthy way.
E. After the first few weeks abroad, many students will feel a little worse.
F. On that line of thought, truly try to explore the city that you’re studying in.
G. It can be friends, family, mentors or professors who you feel can understand you.

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。
Tom threw himself on the sofa, sighing. Mother’s Day was coming, but he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without any money?” he thought.
Tom picked up the newspaper that was lying on the sofa. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring (赞助) a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a beautiful and precious gift for her.” said the advertisement.
“This is perfect!” thought Tom. He ran to his room with the newspaper. After taking a pencil and a blank piece of paper from his desk, he started to write.
“My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes lunch for me to take to school and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want her to. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters (怪兽). And she gives me the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who may laugh at me for hugging my mom.”
Tom liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp. He ran to the mailbox with his entry (参赛作品). “Mom will love having a special gift,” he thought.
Tom checked his mailbox every day for his prize. Days went by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s Day. Tom still hadn’t heard anything about the contest.
“What am I going to do now?” he wondered. He didn’t have a present, and he didn’t have a gift. And he still didn’t have money.
He had to think of something. Tom closed his eyes, curled(使弯曲)his toes and thought hard.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
Then Tom thought he could show his love for his mother in another way.

Dear Allen,
How are you recently? The Student Union of our school will host an event of dance performances next week. I’m writing this email to invite you to attend it, because I know you have great interest in dancing.
The event will be held in our school hall from 6 pm to 8 pm next Saturday. During the event, we can not only appreciate classical dance performances of China and Western countries, but some dances originally choreographed by the students. And you will be impressed by the combination of Chinese dance with Western dance.
I believe you will enjoy yourself then. Looking forward to your coming!
Yours,
Li Hua

Then Tom thought he could show his love for his mother in another way. He searched in his drawers and fortunately found a piece of delicate paper. He sat down straight on his chair, and began to write a letter in his best handwriting as a Mother’s Day present. “Dear Mom, I’m writing this to tell you that you are the best mother in the world…” With a sincere heart. Tom finished the letter and put it in an envelope with a smile on his face.
On Mother’s Day, Tom gave his mother the envelope with the letter in it. She opened it and found the letter. Having finishing reading the letter, his mom swept him up into her arms with her eyes wet. “Thank you, my dear!” she said, hugging Tom more tightly. Leaning against his mother’s shoulder, Tom slowly explained why be had chosen to write a letter as a gift. After hearing the reason, his mom gently touched his head, saving, “To me, your letter is better than any other gift.” Hugging each other, they felt happy as if they had everything. Indeed, love should be made known to loved ones.
