第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Participants in an online forum were asked whether space exploration was worthwhile. Here are some of the comments they posted:
Planet Girl 7.17 pm
Our world is ravaged by war, famine and poverty. Billions of people struggle just to survive from day to day. Meanwhile the US space agency has US$16 billion to play with every year. We must deal with the world’s urgent problems. Space exploration is a luxury we cannot afford.
Dragon 7.18 pm
That $16 billion spent on space is nothing compared to the $370 billion spent on the military.
JJ 7.20 pm
Exploring space is investing in the future. Everyone knows we’re running out of resources. There’s massive over-population too. The solar system has heaps of resources we can use for mining, and maybe we can colonise other planets. If we don’t do it now, it might be too late.
Planet Girl 7.22 pm
We have to tackle problems of over-population and resource depletion here on Earth, instead of chasing science fiction dreams. Otherwise we will just export our unsustainable lifestyle to another planet. We might consume the whole universe!!
JJ 7.23 pm
Space explorers rock! They know what they are in for, and they still do it anyway. That’s what I call courage! We humans have always struggled to expand our horizons. We want to know what else is out there. Who knows, maybe we’ll discover the solution to all our problems out there!
Switched-on 7.25 pm
Space exploration has had a huge effect on our lives. Want to talk to someone halfway around the world? Sure. Get the weather forecast? Coming right up. Check exactly where you are? Absolutely. It’s all possible, thanks to satellite technology, global positioning systems, and the rest. If there was no space exploration, we’d be sitting around in the dark, not talking online!
Penny 7.50 pm
Satellites are launched by private companies — for profit. Planet Earth doesn’t always benefit. Exploring remote planets certainly does not contribute to life on Earth.
21. From the online forum Planet Girl means that space exploration is______.
A. expensive but necessary.
B. expensive and unnecessary
C. very important but too expensive.
D. not very important but affordable.
22. What is the most likely reason that JJ does not discuss the cost of space exploration?
A. He agrees that space exploration costs too much.
B. He does not know how much space exploration costs.
C. He thinks space exploration is worthwhile, whatever the cost.
D. He knows Planet Girl is wrong about the cost of space exploration.
23. What is one point that Planet Girl and JJ are most likely to agree about?
A. Earth’s resources are fast disappearing.
B. Spending money on war is unnecessary.
C. Space exploration encourages creativity.
D. Living on other planets is a real possibility.
B
There once lived a rich businessman who had a lazy son. The businessman wanted his son to be hardworking and responsible. One day he said, “Today, I want you to go out and earn something. If you fail, you won’t have your meal tonight.”
He went crying straight to his mother. Her heart melted at her son’s eyes. She gave him a gold coin. When the father asked his son what he had earned, the son presented him with the gold coin. The father asked him to throw it into a well.
The next day, he asked his son to earn something again. This time he went crying to his sister who gave him a coin. When he showed it to his father he again asked him to throw it into a well. Then the father asked him to earn more money.
This time since there was no one to help him, the son was forced to go to the market. One shopkeeper told him he would pay him two coins if he carried his trunk to his house. He did so and sweated plenty. As he returned home he was asked to do the same. The son almost cried out. He could not imagine throwing his hard-earned money like that. He cried, “My entire body is aching. You are asking me to throw the money into the well.”
At this moment, the businessman told him one feels the pain only when the fruits of hard labor are wasted. On earlier two occasions he was helped and therefore had no pain in throwing the coins into the well. The son had now realized the value of hard work. He promised never to be lazy and safely keep the father’s wealth. The father handed over the keys of his shop to the son and promised to guide him through the rest of the life.
24. We can learn from the passage that the father is ______.
A. lazy and strict B. clever and experienced
C. courageous and confident D. humorous and responsible
25. According to the passage, the father wanted his son to realize ______.
A. the value of money B. the value of hard work
C. the importance of money . D. the importance of hard labor
26. Who helped the son the third time he was asked to earn something?
A. His mother. B. His sister. C. Himself. D. A shopkeeper.
27. According to the passage, we can predict that the son was likely to ______.
A. become successful B. look for a good job
C. use up his father’s wealth . D. hate his father in the future
C
More young children know how to operate a computer mouse than ride a bike as technology tightens its grip on the nation’s youth, researchers warn. And, while seven out of ten youngsters aged between two and five are comfortable playing on-line games, less than two in ten could swim unaided. The figures show that the traditional milestones which a child would expect to achieve are being replaced by digital ones. Parents are either too busy or too lazy to help their offspring to learn practical and physical skills—from riding a bike to tying their laces—often finding it simpler to sit them in front of a screen. Instead of experiencing the real world, children are copying their parents by tapping away on phones or keyboards—at the expense of their social and physical well-being. Child development expert Sue Palmer said that the figures showed we are “cooping children up inside” more than ever.
According to the study, 23 percent of children between two and five can make a call on a mobile phone and a quarter can navigate between websites with ease. One in five knew their way around smart phones or even an iPad. Two thirds knew how to turn a computer on and 73 percent said they could work a mouse. When it came to real-life matters, however, the picture was very different. Just 48 percent knew their own home address and only a third were able to write their first and last names.
“By encouraging them to live a virtual screen-based existence we are deadening their developmental drive and dumb them down,” she said. “They get used to the quick fix and the easy rewards of communicating with technology and don’t learn how to invest the emotional effort that is necessary for real relationships. What they need is real play with real people in order to develop properly”.
28. Which is true according to the passage?
A. Experts create commuters to make children addicted.
B. Grown-ups are rewarding children’s success in games.
C. Children are fixing on the emotional effort without help.
D.Parents often let their children alone, caring little for the practical ability.
29.What does the underlined word in Par. 1 probably mean according to the context?
A.Motivate. B.Develop. C.Encage. D.Destroy.
30. Living in a virtual world may get children ______.
A. to lose the motivation to develop B. to be unable to communicate
C. to be easily rewarded by the society D. to learn to cope with real people
31. Sue Palmer suggests that children should ______.
A. live in a virtual world B. communicate with technology
C. devote little to emotion D. experience the real things around them
D
Earthquakes are massive in their force, damaging in their impact and, despite intensive scientific research, still largely unpredictable. If we could predict earthquakes reliably and early, we could warn people and hundreds of thousands of lives could be saved. Many people (including some scientists) hold out hope that predicting earthquakes will soon be achievable—not by creating advanced, super-sensitive equipment but by observing the natural behaviour of animals.
Perhaps this hope is being built on shaky ground. There are certainly many reports of animals behaving strangely before earthquakes: dogs running away, cats hiding, caged birds growing restless, wild birds moving their eggs from their nests, hibernating snakes waking up, zoo animals howling.
These behaviours, however, are generally reported after the event. How trustworthy are these reports? Before massive leaving are authorised on the basis of animal behaviour and before hundreds of thousands of people can be convinced to move great distances at a moment’s notice, we need to be reasonably confident of two things: If an earthquake is about to happen, certain animals will act strangely. If an earthquake is not about to happen, these animals will act normally. At the moment, we can’t be sure of either of these things.
There seems to have been strange behaviour by snakes, birds, cows and rats before the earthquake in Haicheng, China in 1975. However, in the same region the next year, when another earthquake caused the death of more than 200,000 people, the animals displayed no such behaviour.
There are animals all over the world that are behaving strangely at this very moment—nervous dogs, odd snakes, messy ants—but tomorrow, after the ground has remained stubbornly still, no one will recall this behaviour and think, “Strange!” Let an earthquake happen, though, and listen for the cries of “Rover knew!” and “Those ants are smarter than scientists!”
Continue the research into animal behaviour by all means, if only because it may show up interesting evidence about how animals sense changes in the physical environment. But don’t start building up hopes that will almost certainly come completely down.
32. What do the underlined words in Par. 1 suggest about this method of predicting earthquakes?
A.It is highly disputed.
B.It is likely to be achieved soon.
C.It is gaining more support all the time.
D.It is most often supported by non-experts.
33.Why is the second earthquake mentioned in Par. 4 particularly important to the argument?
A.It happened long after the earlier one.
B.It happened soon after an earlier earthquake.
C.It happened before unusual animal behaviour.
D.It happened in the same region as an earlier earthquake.
34.What does Par. 5 suggest about how some people treat evidence?
A.They are not interested in evidence.
B.They notice evidence that scientists ignore.
C.They provide scientists with false evidence.
D.They explain evidence according to their own ideas.
35.What is probably the best title of the passage?
A.Causes of Earthquakes
B.Animals and Earthquakes
C.Animals Save Human Lives
D.Animals’ Sense of Disasters

根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A car needs gas to run and your body also needs food to work for you. 36 It can keep your body strong, so take care of what you eat.

B. But you will find yourself hungry soon.
C. Walking every morning is also very important.

One night, when I was eight, my mother gently asked me a question I would never forget. “Sweetie, my company wants to promote me; however, it needs me to work in Brazil. This is like your teacher 61 (tell) that you’ve done well and allowing you to skip a grade, but you’ll have to leave your friends. Would you say yes to your teacher?” She gave me a hug and asked me to think about it. I had said “yes” but for the first time, I realized the difficult decisions adults had 62 (make).
For almost four years, my mother would call us from Brazil every day. Every evening I’d anxiously wait for the phone to ring and then tell her every detail of my day. A phone call, however, could never replace her company and 63 was difficult not to feel lonely at times.
During my fourth-grade Christmas break, we 64 (fly)to Rio to visit her. Looking at her large empty apartment, I realized how 65 (lone) my mother must have been in Brazil herself. It was then that I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on balancing family and work. 66 (Face) with difficult decisions, she used to tell me, you wouldn’t know whether you make the right choice, but you could always make the best out of the situation, with passion and a positive attitude.
Back home, I reminded myself that what my mother could do, I 67 , too. If she managed to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be independent. I learn how to take care of myself and set high but 68 (achieve) goals.
My mother is now back with us. But I will never forget 69 the experience has really taught me. Sacrifices pay 70 in the end. The separation between us has proved to be a treasure for me.

Dear Tom,
I’d like to introduce waste separation that is being carried out in our school.
I should say waste separation is vital to create an environment-friendly campus. Firstly, waste separation does great contribution to the environmental protection. Secondly, waste separation could save a lot of energy and time on its processing.
Different kinds of waste are required to be sorted out and placed in different dustbins. Paper can be recycled, while leftovers can be collected as food for pigs or processed as fertilizer for plants. Above all such harmful things as plastics and used batteries should not be mixed with other wastes.
Let’s do what we could to make our campus more beautiful.
Yours

第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Participants in an online forum were asked whether space exploration was worthwhile. Here are some of the comments they posted:
Planet Girl 7.17 pm
Our world is ravaged by war, famine and poverty. Billions of people struggle just to survive from day to day. Meanwhile the US space agency has US$16 billion to play with every year. We must deal with the world’s urgent problems. Space exploration is a luxury we cannot afford.
Dragon 7.18 pm
That $16 billion spent on space is nothing compared to the $370 billion spent on the military.
JJ 7.20 pm
Exploring space is investing in the future. Everyone knows we’re running out of resources. There’s massive over-population too. The solar system has heaps of resources we can use for mining, and maybe we can colonise other planets. If we don’t do it now, it might be too late.
Planet Girl 7.22 pm
We have to tackle problems of over-population and resource depletion here on Earth, instead of chasing science fiction dreams. Otherwise we will just export our unsustainable lifestyle to another planet. We might consume the whole universe!!
JJ 7.23 pm
Space explorers rock! They know what they are in for, and they still do it anyway. That’s what I call courage! We humans have always struggled to expand our horizons. We want to know what else is out there. Who knows, maybe we’ll discover the solution to all our problems out there!
Switched-on 7.25 pm
Space exploration has had a huge effect on our lives. Want to talk to someone halfway around the world? Sure. Get the weather forecast? Coming right up. Check exactly where you are? Absolutely. It’s all possible, thanks to satellite technology, global positioning systems, and the rest. If there was no space exploration, we’d be sitting around in the dark, not talking online!
Penny 7.50 pm
Satellites are launched by private companies — for profit. Planet Earth doesn’t always benefit. Exploring remote planets certainly does not contribute to life on Earth.
21. From the online forum Planet Girl means that space exploration is______.
A. expensive but necessary.
B. expensive and unnecessary
C. very important but too expensive.
D. not very important but affordable.
22. What is the most likely reason that JJ does not discuss the cost of space exploration?
A. He agrees that space exploration costs too much.
B. He does not know how much space exploration costs.
C. He thinks space exploration is worthwhile, whatever the cost.
D. He knows Planet Girl is wrong about the cost of space exploration.
23. What is one point that Planet Girl and JJ are most likely to agree about?
A. Earth’s resources are fast disappearing.
B. Spending money on war is unnecessary.
C. Space exploration encourages creativity.
D. Living on other planets is a real possibility.
B
There once lived a rich businessman who had a lazy son. The businessman wanted his son to be hardworking and responsible. One day he said, “Today, I want you to go out and earn something. If you fail, you won’t have your meal tonight.”
He went crying straight to his mother. Her heart melted at her son’s eyes. She gave him a gold coin. When the father asked his son what he had earned, the son presented him with the gold coin. The father asked him to throw it into a well.
The next day, he asked his son to earn something again. This time he went crying to his sister who gave him a coin. When he showed it to his father he again asked him to throw it into a well. Then the father asked him to earn more money.
This time since there was no one to help him, the son was forced to go to the market. One shopkeeper told him he would pay him two coins if he carried his trunk to his house. He did so and sweated plenty. As he returned home he was asked to do the same. The son almost cried out. He could not imagine throwing his hard-earned money like that. He cried, “My entire body is aching. You are asking me to throw the money into the well.”
At this moment, the businessman told him one feels the pain only when the fruits of hard labor are wasted. On earlier two occasions he was helped and therefore had no pain in throwing the coins into the well. The son had now realized the value of hard work. He promised never to be lazy and safely keep the father’s wealth. The father handed over the keys of his shop to the son and promised to guide him through the rest of the life.
24. We can learn from the passage that the father is ______.
A. lazy and strict B. clever and experienced
C. courageous and confident D. humorous and responsible
25. According to the passage, the father wanted his son to realize ______.
A. the value of money B. the value of hard work
C. the importance of money . D. the importance of hard labor
26. Who helped the son the third time he was asked to earn something?
A. His mother. B. His sister. C. Himself. D. A shopkeeper.
27. According to the passage, we can predict that the son was likely to ______.
A. become successful B. look for a good job
C. use up his father’s wealth . D. hate his father in the future
C
More young children know how to operate a computer mouse than ride a bike as technology tightens its grip on the nation’s youth, researchers warn. And, while seven out of ten youngsters aged between two and five are comfortable playing on-line games, less than two in ten could swim unaided. The figures show that the traditional milestones which a child would expect to achieve are being replaced by digital ones. Parents are either too busy or too lazy to help their offspring to learn practical and physical skills—from riding a bike to tying their laces—often finding it simpler to sit them in front of a screen. Instead of experiencing the real world, children are copying their parents by tapping away on phones or keyboards—at the expense of their social and physical well-being. Child development expert Sue Palmer said that the figures showed we are “cooping children up inside” more than ever.
According to the study, 23 percent of children between two and five can make a call on a mobile phone and a quarter can navigate between websites with ease. One in five knew their way around smart phones or even an iPad. Two thirds knew how to turn a computer on and 73 percent said they could work a mouse. When it came to real-life matters, however, the picture was very different. Just 48 percent knew their own home address and only a third were able to write their first and last names.
“By encouraging them to live a virtual screen-based existence we are deadening their developmental drive and dumb them down,” she said. “They get used to the quick fix and the easy rewards of communicating with technology and don’t learn how to invest the emotional effort that is necessary for real relationships. What they need is real play with real people in order to develop properly”.
28. Which is true according to the passage?
A. Experts create commuters to make children addicted.
B. Grown-ups are rewarding children’s success in games.
C. Children are fixing on the emotional effort without help.
D.Parents often let their children alone, caring little for the practical ability.
29.What does the underlined word in Par. 1 probably mean according to the context?
A.Motivate. B.Develop. C.Encage. D.Destroy.
30. Living in a virtual world may get children ______.
A. to lose the motivation to develop B. to be unable to communicate
C. to be easily rewarded by the society D. to learn to cope with real people
31. Sue Palmer suggests that children should ______.
A. live in a virtual world B. communicate with technology
C. devote little to emotion D. experience the real things around them
D
Earthquakes are massive in their force, damaging in their impact and, despite intensive scientific research, still largely unpredictable. If we could predict earthquakes reliably and early, we could warn people and hundreds of thousands of lives could be saved. Many people (including some scientists) hold out hope that predicting earthquakes will soon be achievable—not by creating advanced, super-sensitive equipment but by observing the natural behaviour of animals.
Perhaps this hope is being built on shaky ground. There are certainly many reports of animals behaving strangely before earthquakes: dogs running away, cats hiding, caged birds growing restless, wild birds moving their eggs from their nests, hibernating snakes waking up, zoo animals howling.
These behaviours, however, are generally reported after the event. How trustworthy are these reports? Before massive leaving are authorised on the basis of animal behaviour and before hundreds of thousands of people can be convinced to move great distances at a moment’s notice, we need to be reasonably confident of two things: If an earthquake is about to happen, certain animals will act strangely. If an earthquake is not about to happen, these animals will act normally. At the moment, we can’t be sure of either of these things.
There seems to have been strange behaviour by snakes, birds, cows and rats before the earthquake in Haicheng, China in 1975. However, in the same region the next year, when another earthquake caused the death of more than 200,000 people, the animals displayed no such behaviour.
There are animals all over the world that are behaving strangely at this very moment—nervous dogs, odd snakes, messy ants—but tomorrow, after the ground has remained stubbornly still, no one will recall this behaviour and think, “Strange!” Let an earthquake happen, though, and listen for the cries of “Rover knew!” and “Those ants are smarter than scientists!”
Continue the research into animal behaviour by all means, if only because it may show up interesting evidence about how animals sense changes in the physical environment. But don’t start building up hopes that will almost certainly come completely down.
32. What do the underlined words in Par. 1 suggest about this method of predicting earthquakes?
A.It is highly disputed.
B.It is likely to be achieved soon.
C.It is gaining more support all the time.
D.It is most often supported by non-experts.
33.Why is the second earthquake mentioned in Par. 4 particularly important to the argument?
A.It happened long after the earlier one.
B.It happened soon after an earlier earthquake.
C.It happened before unusual animal behaviour.
D.It happened in the same region as an earlier earthquake.
34.What does Par. 5 suggest about how some people treat evidence?
A.They are not interested in evidence.
B.They notice evidence that scientists ignore.
C.They provide scientists with false evidence.
D.They explain evidence according to their own ideas.
35.What is probably the best title of the passage?
A.Causes of Earthquakes
B.Animals and Earthquakes
C.Animals Save Human Lives
D.Animals’ Sense of Disasters

One night, when I was eight, my mother gently asked me a question I would never forget. “Sweetie, my company wants to promote me; however, it needs me to work in Brazil. This is like your teacher 61 (tell) that you’ve done well and allowing you to skip a grade, but you’ll have to leave your friends. Would you say yes to your teacher?” She gave me a hug and asked me to think about it. I had said “yes” but for the first time, I realized the difficult decisions adults had 62 (make).
For almost four years, my mother would call us from Brazil every day. Every evening I’d anxiously wait for the phone to ring and then tell her every detail of my day. A phone call, however, could never replace her company and 63 was difficult not to feel lonely at times.
During my fourth-grade Christmas break, we 64 (fly)to Rio to visit her. Looking at her large empty apartment, I realized how 65 (lone) my mother must have been in Brazil herself. It was then that I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on balancing family and work. 66 (Face) with difficult decisions, she used to tell me, you wouldn’t know whether you make the right choice, but you could always make the best out of the situation, with passion and a positive attitude.
Back home, I reminded myself that what my mother could do, I 67 , too. If she managed to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be independent. I learn how to take care of myself and set high but 68 (achieve) goals.
My mother is now back with us. But I will never forget 69 the experience has really taught me. Sacrifices pay 70 in the end. The separation between us has proved to be a treasure for me.

Dear Tom,
I’d like to introduce waste separation that is being carried out in our school.
I should say waste separation is vital to create an environment-friendly campus. Firstly, waste separation does great contribution to the environmental protection. Secondly, waste separation could save a lot of energy and time on its processing.
Different kinds of waste are required to be sorted out and placed in different dustbins. Paper can be recycled, while leftovers can be collected as food for pigs or processed as fertilizer for plants. Above all such harmful things as plastics and used batteries should not be mixed with other wastes.
Let’s do what we could to make our campus more beautiful.
Yours
