第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)
第一节(共10题;每小题2.5分,满分25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。
A
Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious (难为情的) when they're in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn't have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it's time to repaint, go blue.
Don't forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories (卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you're at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake (摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we'll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
21.The text is especially helpful for those who care about ________.
A. their home comforts B. their body shape
C. house buying D. healthy diets
22.A home environment in blue can help people _______.
A. digest food better B. reduce food intake
C. burn more calories D. regain their appetites
23.What are people advised to do at mealtimes
A. Eat quickly. B. Play fast music.
C. Use smaller spoons. D. Turn down the lights.
B
Last night, on my way home I stopped because of being attracted by some hamburgers at a fast food restaurant.On my way in, a homeless man approached me and asked, "Do you have any bottles lying around?" I knew he would recycle them for a few cents, but I didn t have any, so I said no.And again he asked, "Can you spare some change (零钱) " I smiled, and said no again.
He was very respectful; he smiled back and said, "OK, thank you." Even though he didn t have anything, he was still in good spirits. From the way he spoke I could tell he was smart.
Then I bought one hamburger and enjoyed my meal, but in the back of my mind I wondered whether the homeless man was hungry. After I finished my meal I decided to order another one for him.At this point I didn t know if he was still around, but I tried anyway.
At the counter I ordered a hamburger and also a hot chocolate, because it was cold outside, and I thought it would help warm him up. They delivered me the hot chocolate first and as I waited for my hamburger, I noticed the homeless man was standing right beside me. I looked at him and smiled, "This hot chocolate is for you. "He replied like a gentleman,"Thank you so much. That s very kind of you."
I always believe no matter how hard up (缺钱) I am, there are always those who are worse off than I.When you help someone, it s not always about money, it s about love.The love you give today, someone might forget tomorrow.It doesn t matter.Love anyway, because the greatest thing you can give is love.
24.Why did the author stop at a fast food restaurant? ______
A. Because he was hungry and thirsty.
B. Because he wanted to help the homeless man there.
C. Because he hoped he could collect some bottles there.
D. Because the hamburgers there interested him.
25.We can infer from the text that the homeless man was ______ .
A. old and sick B. sad and nervous
C. polite and friendly D. calm and confident
26.The author wants to tell us that ______ .
A. there is always someone that we can help
B. money cannot buy everything
C. we shouldn t forget those who once helped us
D. love cannot be forced
C
It is generally accepted that the experiences of the child in his first years largely determine his character and later personality. Every experience teaches the child something and the effects are cumulative(累积的).“Upbringing” is normally used to refer to the treatment and training of the child within the home. This is closely related to the treatment and training of the child in school, which is usually described by the term “education”.
In a society such as ours, both parents and teachers are responsible for the opportunities provided for the development of the child, so that upbringing and education are dependent on each other. The ideas and practices of child raising vary from culture to culture. In general, the more rural the community is, the more uniform are the customs of child upbringing. In more technologically developed societies, the period of childhood and adolescence tends to last over a long time, resulting in more opportunity for education and greater variety in character development.
Early upbringing in the home is naturally affected both by the cultural pattern of the community and by the parents’ abilities and their aims and depends not only on upbringing and education but also on the innate (先天的) abilities of the child. Wide differences of innate intelligence and character exist even in children of the same family. Intelligent parents, however, realize that the particular setting of each family is unique, and there can be no strict general rules. All parents have to solve the problems of freedom and discipline(纪律).The younger the child is, the more readily the mother gives in to his demands to avoid disappointing him. She knows that if his energies are not put to good use, her child may begin to develop in an unhealthy way. A child must be allowed to enjoy this “messy” stage of discovery before he is ready to go on to the less physical pleasures of toys and books. Similarly, throughout life, each stage depends on the satisfactory completion of the one before.
27.According to Paragraph 1, a child’s early experiences ________.
A. decide his future education
B. influence his later character
C. can reflect his innate intelligence
D. have bad effects on his upbringing
28.It can be learnt from Paragraph 2 that ________.
A. upbringing and education are not related
B. culture doesn’t affect a child’s upbringing
C. children in rural communities have better development
D. technological development contributes to children’s character development
29.According to the text, intelligent parents ________.
A. make general rules quite flexible
B. are aware of the settings of most families
C. seldom enjoy their children’s “messy” stage of discovery
D. ask their children to choose toys and books by themselves
30.What can we infer from the text
A. Parents should avoid disappointing their children.
B. Children of the same family have few differences.
C. Children’s character development is affected by many factors.
D. Parents should give their children more freedom and less discipline.

The eight-year-old Carol lived with her father David, Mother May and elder brother Rob. The little family happily lived in a beautiful village surrounded with beautiful nature. The village was at the foot of a mountain, with beautiful views of the snowy mountain. The family survived on growing seasonal plants and trees. Their life is totally surrounded by nature and beauty.
While they lived a very happy life, Carol did not love the beautiful atmosphere of the village. She really wanted to move into the city and enjoy the city life. She wanted to shop, move around the city, watch movies, and eat in fantastic restaurants and cafes, etc.
However, there was hardly any chance that Carol's family moved to the city as they had everything in the village.
One day, Carol fell asleep during the early noon and she had a sound sleep. Of course, she had a strange dream. She saw her grandmother in her dream as a fairy and her deceased grandmother granted her a wish. Carol requested her that she should love to enjoy the city life as she always desired.
Grandmother understood the desire of Carol, but still wanted to convince her that the peaceful village life is better than the city life.
She told Carol, "Baby, you cannot have access to fresh fruits and vegetables from plants as you have at your home. You cannot breathe fresh air. You cannot play with animals. You can hardly find any trees. You will not find peace as you see here! Do you still want to go to the city "
Without hearing the concerns, Carol asked her grandmother to grant the wish. Grandmother granted her wish, but with a condition. Carol was told that she would only have 6 hours to spend in the city. Later, she would return to the village. Carol agreed.

Every experience teaches the child something and the effects are cumulative(累积的).“Upbringing” is normally used to refer to the treatment and training of the child within the home. This is closely related to the treatment and training of the child in school, which is usually described by the term “education”.
In a society such as ours, both parents and teachers are responsible for the opportunities provided for the development of the child, so that upbringing and education are dependent on each other. The ideas and practices of child raising vary from culture to culture. In general, the more rural the community is, the more uniform are the customs of child upbringing. In more technologically developed societies, the period of childhood and adolescence tends to last over a long time, resulting in more opportunity for education and greater variety in character development.
Early upbringing in the home is naturally affected both by the cultural pattern of the community and by the parents’ abilities and their aims and depends not only on upbringing and education but also on the innate (先天的) abilities of the child. Wide differences of innate intelligence and character exist even in children of the same family. Intelligent parents, however, realize that the particular setting of each family is unique, and there can be no strict general rules. All parents have to solve the problems of freedom and discipline(纪律).The younger the child is, the more readily the mother gives in to his demands to avoid disappointing him. She knows that if his energies are not put to good use, her child may begin to develop in an unhealthy way. A child must be allowed to enjoy this “messy” stage of discovery before he is ready to go on to the less physical pleasures of toys and books. Similarly, throughout life, each stage depends on the satisfactory completion of the one before.
27.According to Paragraph 1, a child’s early experiences ________.
A. decide his future education
B. influence his later character
C. can reflect his innate intelligence
D. have bad effects on his upbringing
28.It can be learnt from Paragraph 2 that ________.
A. upbringing and education are not related
B. culture doesn’t affect a child’s upbringing
C. children in rural communities have better development
D. technological development contributes to children’s character development
29.According to the text, intelligent parents ________.
A. make general rules quite flexible
B. are aware of the settings of most families
C. seldom enjoy their children’s “messy” stage of discovery
D. ask their children to choose toys and books by themselves
30.What can we infer from the text
A. Parents should avoid disappointing their children.
B. Children of the same family have few differences.
C. Children’s character development is affected by many factors.
D. Parents should give their children more freedom and less discipline.

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
The eight-year-old Carol lived with her father David, Mother May and elder brother Rob. The little family happily lived in a beautiful village surrounded with beautiful nature. The village was at the foot of a mountain, with beautiful views of the snowy mountain. The family survived on growing seasonal plants and trees. Their life is totally surrounded by nature and beauty.
While they lived a very happy life, Carol did not love the beautiful atmosphere of the village. She really wanted to move into the city and enjoy the city life. She wanted to shop, move around the city, watch movies, and eat in fantastic restaurants and cafes, etc.
However, there was hardly any chance that Carol's family moved to the city as they had everything in the village.
One day, Carol fell asleep during the early noon and she had a sound sleep. Of course, she had a strange dream. She saw her grandmother in her dream as a fairy and her deceased grandmother granted her a wish. Carol requested her that she should love to enjoy the city life as she always desired.
Grandmother understood the desire of Carol, but still wanted to convince her that the peaceful village life is better than the city life.
She told Carol, "Baby, you cannot have access to fresh fruits and vegetables from plants as you have at your home. You cannot breathe fresh air. You cannot play with animals. You can hardly find any trees. You will not find peace as you see here! Do you still want to go to the city "
Without hearing the concerns, Carol asked her grandmother to grant the wish. Grandmother granted her wish, but with a condition. Carol was told that she would only have 6 hours to spend in the city. Later, she would return to the village. Carol agreed.

【答案】
Carol then found herself in the city with her friends. Carol and her friends went to watch movies. After that they ate delicious food in a restaurant and shopped in a huge mall. Carol was happy that she had the chance to experience the life in the city. Yet at the same time, she understood that everything told by her grandmother was true in the city. There was no peace and no silence; the city life was fast and rushing. The air quality is not satisfying. She could hardly find any animal or even a tree.
Carol's brother Rob was calling her for lunch and Carol woke up. She recalled what happened just now in her dream and realized that her life in the village with her family was far more wonderful than the city life. Carol understood that she was having a more joyful life. She shared her dream with her family while enjoying the fresh fruits and vegetables, and they laughed together. Carol also developed love for plants, animals and beautiful nature.
【解析】
【思路点拨】
本题需要考生阅读所给的故事后进行续写。文章主要介绍了和家人住在乡村的小女孩一心想要去城市生活,有一天梦见了祖母答应帮自己完成这个愿望,但只能在城市待六个小时。考生在续写结局时可参考文中情节,如Carol想去和朋友看电影吃饭购物,可发挥想象,逻辑合理即可,注意使用第三人称,时态为一般过去时,正确使用标点符号。尽量使用高级句型、词汇。
【亮点短语】
1.at the same time同时;
2.wake up醒来;
3.develop love for…爱上……
