第二部分 阅读 (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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P. E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later informed me that I was "not athletic".
The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!"
By mile 17 I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt severely. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21, I was starving!
As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. Actually, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a "marathon winner".
21. After the author’s ankle was injured, the author ________.
A. decided to quit B. made up his mind to run
C. lost hope and held back D. felt painful and frightened
22. Why did the author refer to his experience in the 7th year
A. To share a funny story. B. To share his precious old days.
C. To show his inability in sports then. D. To express his thanks to the teacher.
23. What happened to the author at last during his first marathon
A. He walked to the end. B. He made it to the end.
C. He quit running halfway. D. He was awarded the first prize.
24. Which words can best describe the author
A. Strong-minded and brave. B. Confident and learned.
C. Outgoing and dependent. D. Courageous and humorous.
25. What does the story mainly tell us
A. One is never too old to learn.
B. Failure is the mother of success.
C. The secret to success lies in family support .
D. Success can be gained with a great effort of will.
B
For much of the past hundred years, classrooms have been designed with the teacher seated in front of desks for students. But many educators now say children can do better in a less structured environment.
Bob Pearlman works as an education advisor in the United States. He told The Associate Press that traditional classrooms are a thing of the past. Now students work in ''enlarged learning areas" that include project-planning rooms, workrooms, and laboratories, as well as learning spaces for groups and individuals. Pearlman points to Albemarle County Public Schools, in Charlottesville, Virginia. The school system invited teams from all its schools to develop learning spaces that would help students deal with complex (复杂的) ideas and work on creative building projects. Now, its primary school classes have exchanged traditional desks for things like soft seating and connectable tables.
Another change to the design of classrooms is the ability to connect to the Internet.
" Classrooms, libraries, and laboratories used to be the only spaces where students spent their school hours. Wireless, laptops and project learning have changed that," Pearlman said. He noted that this has made all school spaces into possible enlarged learning areas.
David Thornburg, who wrote the book From the Campfire to the Holodeck, said Pearlman's concept (概念) met the students' need. He said schools should provide spaces based on how humans learn. That could mean one room is used in different ways at different times, or in different ways at the same time.
Earp is with Teacher magazine, a publication of the nonprofit Australian Council for Educational Research. She noted that in the 1970s, American Robert Sommer, a psychologist, was urging a critical(批判性的) look at traditional classroom designs. Earp said that in addition to newer "freeform" classroom designs, some teachers could find good results with designs that combine new and old ideas. They could try lining up desks at the start of the year and then placing them in groups as the classroom relationships become clearer and project work begins.
26. What change happened to Albemarle County Public Schools
A. Studying time. B. Learning materials.
C. Teaching Strategy. D. Classroom furniture.
27. What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. The new design. B. The existing classroom.
C. The application of the Internet. D. The limitation on learning spaces.
28. What' s David' s attitude towards Pearlman' s classroom design
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful.
C. Uncaring. D. Disagreeing.
29. What’s the ideal classroom in Earp's eyes
A. It should be designed by teachers.
B. It should offer freedom to students.
C. It should combine modern and traditional ideas.
D. It should offer comfortable learning environment.
30 Which of the following can serve as a suitable title
A. Opinions about classroom designs.
B. Methods to enlarge learning spaces.
C. Weaknesses of traditional classrooms.
D. Considerations in classroom designing.
C
Exploration is about how we experience our most meaningful geography. A geography education without actively learning how to explore places is as frustrating as teaching music lessons without sound. Besides that, in its widest sense, exploration has the potential to be one of the most enjoyable and rewarding things we humans will ever do. It can be good for developing problem-solving, teamwork, social and other vital skills. Therefore, we should be given the opportunities to learn properly how to do it.
The sad reality is that millions of children are socially and geographically deprived (剥夺的). Their learning environments lack the diversity of place and experience-based opportunities that they need to develop well and as a result, they will not reach their full potential.
There is plenty of research showing that many children have little time and space to explore, play and learn outdoors. Perhaps most shockingly, Dirt is Good conducted a survey which found that three-quarters of UK children spend less time outside than prisoners, that the amount of time children spend playing in natural places has decreased and that a fifth of children do not play outside on an average day.
There are a large number of good and complex reasons why parents do not let their children play (and so learn) outdoors and not overcoming these barriers comes with its own risks. Changing the parenting cultures that are overly limiting many children’s freedom will potentially need efforts of generation after generation.
Partially as a response to this situation, an increasing number of doctors are providing social prescriptions (处方). Instead of being offered medicine for a mental or physical illness, young patients are being prescribed time with nature, volunteering, doing sports or some other activities instead.
Teachers are, in many ways, in a better position to provide time and space for children to benefit from experiences that help them not only to learn, but also to be well. Teachers can spare both formal and informal time and space for exploration that helps not just children who are ill, but also those who are well to remain well or become even better.
31. What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about
A. The way to reach full potential.
B. The methods of doing exploration.
C. The different attitudes to exploration.
D. The importance of doing exploration.
32. What can we learn from the survey of Dirt is Good
A. Prisoners in the UK are treated very well.
B. Children are badly in need of time outdoors.
C. Children are becoming less outgoing nowadays.
D. There aren’t enough natural places in many countries.
33. What do we know about the process of changing parents’ attitude
A. It’s interesting but tiring.
B. It’s complex and risky.
C. It’s challenging but worthwhile.
D. It’s troublesome and demanding.
34. By mentioning social prescriptions, the author wants to say _______.
A. playing outside can promote people’s health
B. traditional medicines may have side effects
C. experienced doctors are in short supply
D. mental illness needs special treatment
35. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text
A. ①-②③④⑤-⑥ B. ①-②③-④⑤⑥
C. ①②③-④⑤-⑥ D. ①②-③④-⑤⑥

【解析】
【原文】Good afternoon, class. Today, we’ll be learning about the king of the jungle. Now, we all know who that is: a lion. But, did you ever wonder why it’s called this, when it doesn’t even live in jungles When we think of a jungle, we usually think of it as a forest in a hot and wet place, like in Malaysia or Indonesia. Also, jungles are normally very difficult to travel through, because plants are growing so closely together. Some groups of tigers do live in jungles. But lions live in more open places, in general. They prefer the drier, grassy spaces of Africa, such as in parts of Kenya. This may have been different in the past, since there used to be many more lions. They lived not only all over Africa, but also from India to Greece. It’s possible that some lions used to live in jungles, too.

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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P. E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later informed me that I was "not athletic".
The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!"
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt severely. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21, I was starving!
As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. Actually, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a "marathon winner".

For much of the past hundred years, classrooms have been designed with the teacher seated in front of desks for students. But many educators now say children can do better in a less structured environment.
Bob Pearlman works as an education advisor in the United States. He told The Associate Press that traditional classrooms are a thing of the past. Now students work in ''enlarged learning areas" that include project-planning rooms, workrooms, and laboratories, as well as learning spaces for groups and individuals. Pearlman points to Albemarle County Public Schools, in Charlottesville, Virginia. The school system invited teams from all its schools to develop learning spaces that would help students deal with complex (复杂的) ideas and work on creative building projects. Now, its primary school classes have exchanged traditional desks for things like soft seating and connectable tables.
Another change to the design of classrooms is the ability to connect to the Internet.
" Classrooms, libraries, and laboratories used to be the only spaces where students spent their school hours. Wireless, laptops and project learning have changed that," Pearlman said. He noted that this has made all school spaces into possible enlarged learning areas.
David Thornburg, who wrote the book From the Campfire to the Holodeck, said Pearlman's concept (概念) met the students' need. He said schools should provide spaces based on how humans learn. That could mean one room is used in different ways at different times, or in different ways at the same time.
Earp is with Teacher magazine, a publication of the nonprofit Australian Council for Educational Research. She noted that in the 1970s, American Robert Sommer, a psychologist, was urging a critical(批判性的) look at traditional classroom designs. Earp said that in addition to newer "freeform" classroom designs, some teachers could find good results with designs that combine new and old ideas. They could try lining up desks at the start of the year and then placing them in groups as the classroom relationships become clearer and project work begins.
26. What change happened to Albemarle County Public Schools
A. Studying time. B. Learning materials.
C. Teaching Strategy. D. Classroom furniture.
27. What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. The new design. B. The existing classroom.
C. The application of the Internet. D. The limitation on learning spaces.
28. What' s David' s attitude towards Pearlman' s classroom design
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful.
C. Uncaring. D. Disagreeing.
29. What’s the ideal classroom in Earp's eyes
A. It should be designed by teachers.
B. It should offer freedom to students.
C. It should combine modern and traditional ideas.
D. It should offer comfortable learning environment.
30. Which of the following can serve as a suitable title
A. Opinions about classroom designs.
B. Methods to enlarge learning spaces.
C. Weaknesses of traditional classrooms.
D. Considerations in classroom designing.
【答案】26. D 27. D 28. A 29. C 30. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些教育相关工作者对于教室设计理念的看法。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Now students work in ''enlarged learning areas" that include project-planning rooms, workrooms, and laboratories, as well as learning spaces for groups and individuals. (现在孩子们可以在扩大的学习区域学习。这些区域包括：项目计划完成室、工坊和实验室，还有为学习小组和个人设置的独立学习空间)”和“Now, its primary school classes have exchanged traditional desks for things like soft seating and connectable tables. (如今，它的小学班级都将传统的课桌椅替换为像软座和可连接的桌子)”可知，购置了一些不同于传统的新型的教学设施和教室用具。故选D项。
【27题详解】

【28题详解】

(曾经创造诸如《篝火》和《全息舱面》这样作品的David说，Pearlman的想法满足了学生们的需求。他说学校就应当根据学生的学习方式提供与之相适宜的场所)”可知，David支持认同Pearlman的设计理念。故选A项。
【29题详解】

C
Exploration is about how we experience our most meaningful geography. A geography education without actively learning how to explore places is as frustrating as teaching music lessons without sound. Besides that, in its widest sense, exploration has the potential to be one of the most enjoyable and rewarding things we humans will ever do. It can be good for developing problem-solving, teamwork, social and other vital skills. Therefore, we should be given the opportunities to learn properly how to do it.
The sad reality is that millions of children are socially and geographically deprived (剥夺的). Their learning environments lack the diversity of place and experience-based opportunities that they need to develop well and as a result, they will not reach their full potential.
There is plenty of research showing that many children have little time and space to explore, play and learn outdoors. Perhaps most shockingly, Dirt is Good conducted a survey which found that three-quarters of UK children spend less time outside than prisoners, that the amount of time children spend playing in natural places has decreased and that a fifth of children do not play outside on an average day.
There are a large number of good and complex reasons why parents do not let their children play (and so learn) outdoors and not overcoming these barriers comes with its own risks. Changing the parenting cultures that are overly limiting many children’s freedom will potentially need efforts of generation after generation.
Partially as a response to this situation, an increasing number of doctors are providing social prescriptions (处方). Instead of being offered medicine for a mental or physical illness, young patients are being prescribed time with nature, volunteering, doing sports or some other activities instead.
Teachers are, in many ways, in a better position to provide time and space for children to benefit from experiences that help them not only to learn, but also to be well. Teachers can spare both formal and informal time and space for exploration that helps not just children who are ill, but also those who are well to remain well or become even better.
31. What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about
A. The way to reach full potential.
B. The methods of doing exploration.
C. The different attitudes to exploration.
D. The importance of doing exploration.
32. What can we learn from the survey of Dirt is Good
A. Prisoners in the UK are treated very well.
B. Children are badly in need of time outdoors.
C. Children are becoming less outgoing nowadays.
D. There aren’t enough natural places in many countries.
33. What do we know about the process of changing parents’ attitude
A It’s interesting but tiring.
B. It’s complex and risky.
C. It’s challenging but worthwhile.
D. It’s troublesome and demanding.
34. By mentioning social prescriptions, the author wants to say _______.
A. playing outside can promote people’s health
B. traditional medicines may have side effects
C. experienced doctors are in short supply
D. mental illness needs special treatment
35. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text
A. ①-②③④⑤-⑥ B. ①-②③-④⑤⑥
C. ①②③-④⑤-⑥ D. ①②-③④-⑤⑥
【答案】31. D 32. B 33. C 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章阐述了出外探索的重要性，提出了儿童在外接触自然的时间较少的原因。最后文章从父母，医生和老师的角度提出了解决方案。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段认为A geography education without actively learning how to explore places is as frustrating as teaching music lessons without sound（地理教育如果不积极地学习如何探索地方，就像教音乐课没有声音一样令人沮丧）。另外作者认为Besides that, in its widest sense, exploration has the potential to be one of the most enjoyable and rewarding things we humans will ever do. It can be good for developing problem-solving, teamwork, social and other vital skills（除此之外，在最广泛意义上，探索有可能成为我们人类将要做的最愉快和最有回报的事情之一。它有助于培养解决问题、团队合作、社交和其他重要技能）。综合分析，文章第一段在告诉我们出外探索重要性。故选D项。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段Perhaps most shockingly, Dirt is Good conducted a survey which found that three-quarters of UK children spend less time outside than prisoners, that the amount of time children spend playing in natural places has decreased and that a fifth of children do not play outside on an average day（也许最令人震惊的是，Dirt is Good的一项调查发现，四分之三的英国儿童在户外的时间少于囚犯，儿童在自然场所玩耍的时间减少了，五分之一的儿童平均每天不在户外玩耍）可知，英国儿童在户外玩耍的时间很少，他们急需多走出去。故选B项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段Changing the parenting cultures that are overly limiting many children’s freedom will potentially need efforts of generation after generation（改变过度限制许多孩子自由的养育文化可能需要一代又一代的努力）可知，改变父母的养育文化需要一代又一代的努力。同时根据前文第二段提及的父母限制孩子在户外玩耍的时间不利于孩子们的成长。综合分析，改变父母的限制孩子自由的养育文化具有挑战性，但又很值得。故选C项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段Instead of being offered medicine for a mental or physical illness, young patients are being prescribed time with nature, volunteering, doing sports or some other activities instead（他们没有为精神或身体疾病提供药物治疗，而是规定年轻患者去大自然、做志愿者、做运动或其他活动）可知，出外游玩可以有利于身体健康。故选A项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。综合分析文章，文章第一段提出了外出探索的重要性。然后在文章第二和第三段描述了有很多小孩子的外出自由受到了限制的现象。文章最后三段提到了改变这种现象的 方法，包括了改变父母的教养文化，医生的帮助以及老师的指导。综合分析可知，故选B项。

【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意：它是中国最大、保存最完好的皇家园林。它以其著名的自然景观和人文情趣对中国的园艺和景观产生了巨大影响。后文most well-preserved为形容词最高级，and前后连接形容词的级应该保持一致。故填largest。
【58题详解】
考查副词。句意：它是中国最大、保存最完好的皇家园林。它以其著名的自然景观和人文情趣对中国的园艺和景观产生了巨大影响。修饰动词influences需用副词greatly作状语。故填greatly。
【59题详解】

【60题详解】
考查冠词。句意：它后来在清末成为了皇室成员的主要住所。in the end of为固定短语，意为“在……结束的时候”。故填the。
【61题详解】
考查副词。句意：然而，和北京的大多数园林一样，颐和园也被大火烧毁了。前文描述了颐和园的重要历史地位，后文介绍颐和园被烧毁。语义为转折关系。同时此处位于句首，应使用副词。故填However/Nevertheless。
【62题详解】
考查被动语态。句意：然而，和北京的大多数园林一样，颐和园也被大火烧毁了。分析句子成分可知，此处为谓语动词。destroy与the Summer Palace为动宾关系，且事情发生在过去。故填was destroyed。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在1900年八国联军再次袭击后，政府花了两年时间修复颐和园。It takes sb. some time to do sth.为固定句型，意为“做某事花费某人多长时间”，空处需填动词不定式。故填to repair。
【64题详解】
考查强调句。句意：直到1998年，颐和园才被联合国教科文组织列入世界遗产，成为中国首批国家5A级旅游景点之一。分析可知，去掉it was和设空处句子依然完整，由此可知此处为：It+be+not until+被强调部分+that+ 其他，是固定句型，意为“直到……才”。故填that。
【65题详解】
考查名词。句意：直到1998年，颐和园才被联合国教科文组织列入世界遗产，成为中国首批国家5A级旅游景点之一。attraction意为“景点”，是可数名词，one of后面需加可数名词复数形式。故填attractions。

【答案】 My sports story
In common with many young people, I used to lead an unhealthy life, such as staying up late, preferring fast food, disliking sports, etc. As a result, I fell ill easily lacking energy, which greatly affected my study and life.

Instead of rarely working out, I made it a rule to run every day. What's more, I ate a healthy, balanced diet, instead of being free to enjoy junk food.
Finally, I stopped staying up late and enjoying myself by eating unhealthy food.Instead, I kept going for a jog at least half an hour daily. Now, I'm crazy about jogging. Thanks to it, I become both more energetic and healthier.
