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A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
When I was 8 years old, I decided to run away from home after a quarrel with my mother. With my suitcase (行李箱) packed and some sandwiches in a bag, I started for the front door.
My mom asked where I was going. “I'm leaving home,” I said.
“What's that you're carrying?” she asked.
“Some clothes and food,” I replied.
“If you want to run away, that's all right,” she said. “But you came into this home without anything and you can leave the same way.”
I threw my suitcase and sandwiches on the floor and started for the door again.
“Wait a minute,” Mom said. “You didn't have any clothes on when you arrived, and I want them back.”
This made me extremely angry. I tore my clothes off—shoes, socks, underwear and all—and shouted, “Can I go now?”
“Yes,” my mom answered, “but once you close that door, don't expect to come back.”
I was so angry that I shut the door forcefully and stepped out of my home. Then I noticed down the street two neighbor girls walking toward our house. I was so shy that I saw the big spruce (云杉) tree in our yard and jumped under the low hanging branches (树枝). A pile of dried up brown needles (针状物) were beneath the tree, and you can't imagine the pain those sharp needles caused to my body.
After I was sure the girls had passed by, I ran to the front door and knocked at it loudly.
“It's Billy! Let me in!”
The voice behind the door answered, “Billy doesn't live here anymore. He ran away from home.”
Looking behind me to see if anyone else was coming down the street, I said, “Mom! I'm sorry. I'm still your son. Let me in!”
The door opened and Mom's smiling face appeared. “Did you change your mind about running away?” she asked.
“What's for supper?” I smiled back.
21.When the author was leaving home, his mother ordered him to .
A.stay at home
B.take some sandwiches
C.leave everything behind
D.check his suitcase carefully
22.Which of the following can best describe the author's mom

C.Kind and helpful. D.Wise but impatient.
23.The last sentence “What's for supper?” mainly shows that the author .
A.felt very hungry at that time
B.changed his plan and decided not to leave home
C.wished to eat something before leaving
D.wanted to know what his mother prepared for supper
B
Parents can cut the chances of their children getting fat simply by keeping them longer at table. Just three minutes extra at a family mealtime could help prevent child obesity. Research found that among poor families, the extra minutes at mealtimes made great improvement of a normal weight for the youth. The factors are likely to be communication and the importance of a scheduled mealtime.
Dr Barbara Fiese said,“Children, whose families have a 20 minute meal over four times a week,weigh less than kids who leave the table after 15 to 17 minutes. Over time, those extra minutes per meal add up and become really powerful.”
The researchers studied 200 family mealtimes,testing the effects of factors and mealtime behavior of families with children in primary school. They found that families, who said that shared mealtimes were an important part of family life and had special meaning for them,were less likely to have an obese child. Similarly, families, who talked more together and interacted more positively during the meal,were more likely to have healthy weight children.
Teaching low income families how to make the most of family mealtimes was a wise idea. Dr Fiese said, “This is something we can target and teach.” She added, “It's also important to recognize the increasing differences of families and their sometimes complex living arrangements that may challenge their abilities to plan ahead and arrange a single time to communicate with each other.”
Families in poorer US neighborhoods faced a lot of problems,including poor access to healthy food. But even so, regular high quality family mealtimes made a difference to the children's weight. Dr Fiese said,“Three to four extra minutes per meal will make a healthy weight more possible.”
24.According to the passage, to have a healthy weight child, parents should ________.
A.limit the food for each meal
B.increase their eating time
C.shorten the mealtime
D.make them eat healthy food
25.How much time is reasonable for one meal according to the passage
A.About 15 minutes. B.About 17 minutes.
C.About 20 minutes. D.About 30 minutes.
26.Why does a longer mealtime make a difference to a normal weight
A.Because people can have a good rest as they eat meals.
B.Because people can have time to choose what they like.
C.Because people can use mealtimes to do other things.
D.Because people can communicate more in the scheduled time
27.What does Dr Fiese suggest to us
A.Parents should not communicate during mealtime.
B.It's better to add three to four extra minutes to one meal.
C.Four meals a day will make a difference to the children's weight.
D.Twenty extra minutes per meal make a healthy weight.
C
In order to achieve in math, science, English, history, geography, and other subjects, reading skills must be developed when the students are young. Students cannot struggle with word recognition (识别) when they should be reading quickly for understanding of a text.
Since reading is very important to success in school, parents can and should play a role in helping their children become interested in reading and in encouraging their growth in reading skills.
Research shows that children learn about reading before they enter school. In fact, they learn in the best way—through observation. Young children, for example, see people around them reading newspapers, books, maps, and signs.
Parents can do a lot to cultivate an understanding of print by talking with their preschoolers about signs in their environment and by letting their children know they enjoy reading themselves. When reading to your preschooler, you should run your index finger under the line of print. This process is simple and helps children begin to notice words and that words have meaning. They also develop habits of reading.
In the early elementary years, from first through third grades, children continue learning how to read. It is a complex process (过程), difficult for some and easy for others. Care must be taken during these early years not to put too much stress on the learning to read process.
Reading for pleasure and information develops reading interests and offers children the chance to practise their reading skills in meaningful ways. Parents of preschoolers should provide reading materials in the home that arouse curiosity or extend their children's natural interest in the world around them.
By encouraging reading in free time, parents take the most important step in improving their children's reading development.
28.What can we conclude from the passage
A.It is important to develop children's reading ability.
B.Parents should care for their children's studies.
C.It is common for students to ignore their reading habit.
D.Schools should pay more attention to children's reading.
29.What should parents do to help their children build up their reading ability
A.They should encourage their children to read every day.
B.They should teach their children to read as quickly as possible.
C.They should take great interest in reading by themselves.
D.They should provide financial support for their children.
30.What does the underlined word “cultivate” mean in Paragraph 4
A.Prevent. B.Develop.
C.Discuss. D.Practise.
31.What should a parent not do when teaching his child
A.Find proper reading materials.
B.Encourage his child to read more at home.
C.Help develop his child's interests.
D.Stress the learning to read process more.
D
Since his students began using Quizlet, English teacher Tristan Thorne has noticed an improvement in their ability to learn and use new words. Quizlet is a learning app, a computer program you use on your mobile phone. It can help users build and test their knowledge of English words. Quizlet has words set for millions of subjects. And, it is quickly becoming a useful mobile tool for language learners.
Thorne teaches at Columbia University in New York City. Thanks to learning apps, Jeff Strack, another English teacher, has also noticed the improvement in his students' ability to remember information. He teaches at Hostos Community College, also in New York. He and Thorne are part of a growing number of language educators adding mobile apps to their classes.
Strack and Thorne seem to agree that the days when teachers would not permit (允许) the use of mobile phones are gone. When they use apps, language learners communicate more differently than in a traditional classroom. Users act on or respond to something, instead of just listening to new information.
Thorne believes that apps can help learners become more active in learning. For example, each week, his students are required to add vocabularies into Quizlet for others to use. He says some apps also make it easy for students to know their language strengths and weaknesses.
The biggest improvement Strack has seen in his students is that they are much more active in whole class or small group discussions. “Apps let all students take part in the activity, whether it's a game, quiz or practice activity,” he says.
Many existing learning apps are designed for students of all ages and levels. Some are designed for group activities. Some support independent learning. Still some are good for homework. Thorne says he especially likes Quizlet and three other apps: QR Codes, Socrative and Evernote.
32.What do Strack and Thorne do to improve their teaching
A.They design learning apps for their students.
B.They don't allow their students to use apps after class.
C.They allow their students to use mobile apps to study.
D.They order their students not to use mobile phones in class.
33.According to the text, how do the apps help the language learners
A.They help language learners take an active part in learning.
B.They help language learners save much time and money.
C.They help language learners remember their weaknesses.
D.They help language learners improve personal designing skills.
34.What can we learn about the existing learning apps
A.They have three types in total.
B.They are too few to choose from.
C.They are only designed for homework.
D.They are designed for different uses.
35.What can be the best title for the text
A.Great Changes in Science and Technology
B.The Use of Mobile Phones Will Be Gone
C.Ways to Choose from Different Mobile Apps
D.Better Language Learning with Mobile Apps

How to Be a Good Listener
Being a good listener can help you see the world through the eyes of others. It enriches your understanding and expands your capacity for empathy (同情). Good listening skills can provide you with a deeper level of understanding about someone's situation.__36__
1. Place yourself in other people's shoes. It's easy to only consider the impact of the other person's “telling” on you. But you must open out and look at the problems from the other person's view. __37__
2. Avoid comparing the person's experiences to your own. You may think that the best thing you can do to really listen is to compare the person's experiences to your own. But this type of thinking actually makes the person feel like you're not really listening at all. __38__ That means that you're focusing more on yourself than on the person's situation.
3.__39__ Some people think that, when they're listening, they should find a quick and easy solution to the person's problem. According to the research, it is totally wrong to do so. Instead focus on absorbing(理解) everything the person is saying to you. Only after that can you really try to help.
4. Know what not to do. Knowing what to avoid when you're trying to be a good listener can be almost as helpful as knowing what to do. If you want the speaker to take you seriously you'd better not interrupt in the middle of a point. __40__ Make eye contact with the person so that the person realizes that you are interested and are listening.
A.Don't try to help immediately.
B.Avoid saying “I” or “me” a lot.
C.Try to solve the person's problem quickly.
D.Don't try to change the subject, even if it's a little uncomfortable.
E.If so, you would see your way through the problems much faster.
F.Therefore you had better listen to what the person is saying carefully.
G.If you want to know how to be a good listener, read on to get started!

Your company isn't far from home, is it Why not walk to the office You'd better take exercise at least once a week, such as playing tennis in the gym. Going to swim is a nice choice, too.

Mum and Dad, please accept my advice. I really wish you healthy!
Your loving daughter,
Mary

Paragraph 1:
Why did Mrs Brown say her husband was really clever Because she found that he had written a notice which looked exactly like a police_notice. He made a_blue_board_with_white_letters on it,but it was not a real one. Being_afraid_of_going_to_prison,_Mr Brown certainly dared_not use the word “police”, but he used “polite notice” instead of “police notice”. He was quite clever,wasn't he
Paragraph 2:
If the police discovered that the Browns were using a police notice, they would feel angry and punish them. It was a crime because they offended the police, passing himself off as a policeman. But Mr Brown would remain very calm and ask the policemen to look at the board carefully. The policemen would burst out laughing when they realized what had happened.
