第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）

第一节（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）

阅读下列短文，从没题所给的A ,B,C 和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

In the summer between my first year and second year in college, I was invited to be an instructor at a high school camp. On the first day, when we were dancing and playing games, I noticed a boy under the tree who was small and thin. His shyness made him appear weak. I walked towards him, introduced myself and invited him to join in the activities and meet some new people. He quietly replied,”No I really don’t want to do this.” I could understand that he was in a new world but I knew it wouldn’t be right to force him, either. Actually, the boy didn’t need a close talk but a friend.

 At lunch the next day, I was leading camp songs when I saw the boy under the tree sitting alone. I tried again with the same invitation, but he refused once again. That evening I was told the boy’s name was Tommy, Then I asked the campers to pay special attention to the boy and spend time with him when they could.

The days went by and the time came when we had to leave. We held a big, warm party to celebrate the closing of the camp. All the campers shared their wonderful moments. To my surprise, I found the boy from under the tree dancing joyfully with two girls. I couldn’t believe it was the same person.

In October of my second year, I received a phone call from Tommy’s mother. She told me that Tommy was hit by a car and killed. I offered my deep sadness. The mother said,” Tommy mentioned you so many times. I want you to know that he went back to school and made new friends with confidence. You made a difference for Tommy during his last months.

 At that moment, I realized how easy it was to give a bit of yourself every day. You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. I hope that everyone can pay attention to their own”boy under the tree” .

21. Before the writer came to the high school summer camp, he was a(n)____________.

 A. instructor      B. camper    C. student    D. reporter

22 .How many times did the writer invite the boy to join in the activities?

 A. Once   B. Twice   C. Three times   D. Many times

23. Which is the correct order about the story?

 ① The boy danced joyfully with two girls.

 ②The boy went back to school and made new friends.

 ③The boy refused to join in the activities.

 ④The boy’s mother made a phone call to the writer.

A. ①②③④           B.②③①④

C .③①②④           D.④③②①

24. From Paragraph 4, we can infer that Tommy’s mother was very ________ to the writer.

     A. thankful          B. helpful       C. faithful           D. harmful

B

If there is one thing that people from different cultures around the world all love it's good food. But, as time goes on, people's tastes tend to change. To help you stay up to date, the BBC recently predicted some food trends to look out for in 2020.

A fashionable food trend we may see in 2020 is a focus on environmentally friendly eating. People are becoming more aware of how their lifestyle choices impact the world around them. Therefore, some of these trends focus on living a healthier lifestyle and keeping the environment in mind.

One way to help the environment is by eating locally grown food and eating seasonal produce. “I believe in 2020 we will see the food focus move to seasonal eating, with more home-grown ingredients,” BBC television presenter and produce expert Chris Bavin commented.

You may also notice some people switching to a plant-based diet this year. The Vegan Society, a UK charity and the oldest of its kind in the world, calculated that the number of vegans (严格的素食者) in Britain has quadrupled (翻四倍) since 2014. They also predict that by 2025, a quarter of the UK population will be vegan or vegetarian and half will be “flexitarians” (半荤半素者).

“Flexitarians” mainly follow a plant-based diet, but will eat meat from time to time. They are also going to expect better quality meats, too.

“We're seeing a more considered approach to meat. Because some people are eating less of it, when they do eat it they want to make it count. They want to really enjoy it,” said Tor Harris, head of Corporate Social Responsibility at Waitrose, a British supermarket chain.

Another food trend to look out for in 2020 is eating with a focus on health. “I think yet again the interest in health-conscious dishes will grow,” English chef Tom Kerridge commented. High-protein and lower-calorie food will be the things to look out for, he said.

These fashionable food trends of 2020 seem to have the environment and health in mind. Which ones are you planning to try out for yourself?

25. What does the food trend focus on?

A. Environment and health. B. Fashion.

C. Local and seasonal eating. D. Plant-based diets.

26. The author mentions several ways of environmentally friendly eating except________.

A. by having a plant-based diet

B. by eating locally grown food

C. by eating seasonal produce

D. by eating good quality meat

27. What does the underlined phrase “make it count” in Paragraph 6 mean?

A. Make it delicious.

B. Make sure how much it is.

C. Make it important and worthy.

D. Make a record of it.

                                     C

A few years ago I worked in an international company that sold computer devices. I had to travel a lot over the country as a part of my work. I remember that I was at a stage of my life where I only cared about how to make more money.

On one of my trips, I came to the airport to take a bus to downtown, as usual. It was the same routine: get into the city, take the bus to the hotel, visit the customer, work late, take the bus back to the airport and fly back ...That day, for some reasons, I decided to take the stairs there, enjoying the scenery. Finally the bus came.

Usually I always took the seat behind the driver. That day I sat down somewhere in the middle. A boy was seated next to me, carrying a lot of suitcases. Suddenly, he turned to me and gave me one of the most sincere smiles I had ever seen from a stranger. Warmly, he said, “hi, the perfect day in the perfect place, huh？”

I remember thinking to myself — this must be one of those typical people who is young and naive and just thinks everything is beautiful and easy. Why was he annoying me when I just wanted to enjoy the bus ride? But out of politeness, I replied, “Perfect! Did your parents pay for you to have some vacations on the beach？” “No, I'm not here for vacation, and I don't have parents，” He shook his head, “I'm here because I want to achieve my biggest dream. I'm on the way to the army school where my grandfather studied a long time ago.”

Dear Peter,

Having received your letter asking about how to learn Chinese well, I’m writing to give you some advice, which I think may be helpful to you.

First of all, you had better attend a Chinese course, where, with other students, you can learn under the guidance of a teacher. In addition, being repeatedly exposed to Chinese books, magazines, and TV can also help you a lot. Last but not least, you can also make more Chinese friends. They will tell you a lot about China and help you learn Chinese.

Looking forward to your progress.

Yours,

Li Hua

参考范文：

Paragraph 1：

“I lost my dad 10 years ago then my mom married again. My stepfather threw me out of the house. Since then, I've been living all over the country. I've met many people who were kind to me. And I've learnt a lot from life through these years，” he said softly. At that point I couldn't say a word. I felt the tears coming. Fortunately, he continued talking.

Paragraph 2：

He smiled and told me that for 10 years, he had only one thing on his mind to join the army school like his grandfather. “My grandpa was a general of the army. He left me this，” he said proudly. He showed me a golden knife and said this was the best memory of his childhood. “The only thing I know is that I will follow my dream and every day I will be happy.” Soon, the bus reached his stop, he stood up, took all his suitcases, and said goodbye with a big smile. From that day on, I always try to do everything with my best smile on my face.
