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）
A
Being a doctor was the aim of my life. I chose science in high school. It was far away from my home city and traveling alone every day wasn’t considered possible. It was not in my fate to be a doctor, so the second choice I considered was to become a teacher.
I always loved helping my younger brother and sister with their studies which in turn helped me in mine. The love and care provided by my teachers and the support of my parents made me what I am today. It has been 24 years, but each day is as new and fresh as the first. Each day has so many memories.
Students look so lovely when they share their problems with me whether they are about studies or about home. I learned a lot in the process of solving their problems. I always wanted my students to feel comfortable with me, take me as one of them and not treat me like a stranger. I gave my students what they needed and did not force them to do anything. Meeting with old students makes me feel alive. The brightness in their eyes gives me happiness and it keeps me going. Teaching has given me pleasure and satisfaction.
Life should be all about gaining and giving away knowledge. Parents should particularly pay attention to their children exploring their hidden talents. They should take proper care of their diet as they depend on them and if not it will inhibit (抑制) the children’s abilities. Learn about your kids; take care of them and their activities. Make them read books as it leads to creativity.

After a couple of days out of town, Denise Thompson arrived at her Kilkenny home on Sunday afternoon to a bizarre scene: her front lawn was gone.
Neighbors had noticed a white truck and trailer (拖车) at the home over the weekend — and the replacement (取代) of green grass with dark brown soil — but thought nothing of it, thinking it was a routine (日常的) landscaping job.
Thompson stayed home from work on Monday, talking to her puzzled insurance company about a $10,000 problem, and hoping that someone realized their mistake. When that didn’t happen, she turned to the news media.
By late Tuesday, The Journal’s story had become widespread, with 130,000 web hits and links from The Drudge Report and The New Yorker websites.
Thompson’s patience brought good results minutes after the story first appeared. The landscaper hadn’t seen the news, but came to her house at 7:30 pm on Monday to drop off a business card and a note.
“He was really apologetic about it,” Thompson said. “I’m not happy about it of course, but I am OK that he came forward finally and did apologize for it and is willing to fix it.”
Patrick Kukanu, owner of Kupak Landscapes Ltd., said it was a mistake. “Our BobCat guy was supposed to be three blocks down,” Kukanu said. “He had the wrong address.”
When the company realized what had happened on Saturday, Kukanu said several attempts were made to contact the homeowner or neighbors. The company offered to replace the lawn immediately on Tuesday, but that will wait.
“It’s just an honest mistake,” Kukanu said. “It’s an error and we’ll gladly correct it.”
53. The underlined word “bizarre” in the first paragraph probably means “ ”.
A. common B. beautiful C. strange D. moving
54. What happened when Thompson was away from home?
A. Her lawn was destroyed and covered with soil.
B. A truck ran into her house and caused huge losses.
C. A thief entered her house and stole a lot of money.
D. Her neighbor used her truck without her permission.
55. What can we learn from the text?
A. The insurance company will pay Thompson a lot of money.
B. Thompson’s neighbors knew nothing about what happened.
C. Thompson wouldn’t forgive the landscaper for his mistake.
D. Thompson’s story attracted a lot of interest on the Internet.
56. Why did the landscaper come to visit Thompson on Monday?
A. To make an apology to Thompson.
B. To leave a business card and a note.
C. To finish his landscaping work.
D. To replace the lawn immediately.
D
Here’s an easy choice: would you rather spend 4 minutes chatting to a good friend or to a complete stranger?
It’s safe to say most of us would choose our friend. With friends we can “be ourselves”, which means expressing our feelings freely. The problem with strangers is that we have to make much effort: psychologists (心理学家) call it “impression management”. We control our behavior more tightly and our impression management starts being very active. But according to recent research, there are hidden benefits to this effort and a lesson for all of us about how we should treat those we know well.
The researchers had participants (参与者) predict how pleasurable it would be to chat with their friends and a complete stranger.
They then had a quick chat and rated how good they felt afterwards. What they found was that people enjoyed talking to their friends less than they predicted. On the other hand, they had more fun talking to a stranger than they had predicted.
So what’s going on here? How can people be having more fun than they imagine talking to complete strangers and less with the person they are in a long-term relationship with?
What the researchers found was that it comes down to whether or not you’re making an effort. Sometimes when we talk to our friends we don’t make much effort to entertain them or to present ourselves in the best light. But we do tend to make much effort with strangers.
In a follow-up study the researchers told participants to make an effort with their friends and then their enjoyment of the social communication improved in line with their predictions. This suggests that we can all have more fun with our friends if we make an effort.
57. When we talk with strangers, we tend to .
A. hide our feelings B. control our behavior
C. express our feelings freely D. judge their first impression of us
58. What did the researchers find?
A. It was hard to talk with strangers.
B. Most people liked to talk with friends.
C. People had more fun talking with strangers.
D. Most people preferred to talk with strangers.
59. What can we conclude from the last paragraph?
A. Our friends are easier to entertain.
B. We don’t have much fun talking with friends.
C. We need make much effort talking with strangers.
D. We can have more fun with our friends through our effort.
60. The main purpose of the text is to let us learn about .
A. how to communicate with strangers
B. the benefits of talking to strangers
C. the way we should treat our friends
D. how to improve our communication skills
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。
A. The Internet never closes.
B. Shop any store worldwide.
C. Always find the best deals.
D. Find items you might not see in stores.
E. No more waiting in line and pushing through crowds.
F. Pay with a credit card safely, even to small merchants.
Top 5 reasons to shop online
Now that the Internet has exploded, thousands of merchants have put their entire inventory (存货目录) online for you to view and shop from whenever you want! There are many reasons why shopping online is so much better than shopping in stores.
Comparison shopping no longer means driving from store to store or flipping through many different ads. Comparing prices is literally just a click away. You can use search engines like Google or a specific comparison shopping website to easily find out which merchants have the lowest prices. Many times, stores will offer online exclusive (专卖的) sales, so it pays to shop online!
You can shop anytime online 24 hours every day. Online stores never close, so you never have to worry about making time to go to the store. Online shopping is perfect for night owls (夜猫子) or anyone who is just too busy to make a trip to the store.
Using credit cards to pay is easy, but sometimes your favorite small merchants can’t accept them. When you shop online, many dealers both big and small use PayPal. PayPal is a website that lets you create an account for free. You simply enter your information, and they act as a middleman when you make payments so merchants can’t see your information. Shopping this way is safe, and you will always be able to pay for the great products you want!
Malls and retail (零售) stores can be chaotic (吵杂的), especially during a big sale or a holiday season. Don’t stress yourself out, just shop from home! You’ll never have to stand in a long checkout line or weave your way through crowds just to get the items you want. Shop online and you can stay in the comfort of your own home.
Never again be limited geographically. Many merchants do not have physical stores in every state, and certainly not in every country. When you shop online, you can browse (浏览) through stores around the block or around the globe! Discover amazing new items from foreign places that you perhaps have never even heard of before.

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）
A
Being a doctor was the aim of my life. I chose science in high school. It was far away from my home city and traveling alone every day wasn’t considered possible. It was not in my fate to be a doctor, so the second choice I considered was to become a teacher.
I always loved helping my younger brother and sister with their studies which in turn helped me in mine. The love and care provided by my teachers and the support of my parents made me what I am today. It has been 24 years, but each day is as new and fresh as the first. Each day has so many memories.
Students look so lovely when they share their problems with me whether they are about studies or about home. I learned a lot in the process of solving their problems. I always wanted my students to feel comfortable with me, take me as one of them and not treat me like a stranger. I gave my students what they needed and did not force them to do anything. Meeting with old students makes me feel alive. The brightness in their eyes gives me happiness and it keeps me going. Teaching has given me pleasure and satisfaction.
Life should be all about gaining and giving away knowledge. Parents should particularly pay attention to their children exploring their hidden talents. They should take proper care of their diet as they depend on them and if not it will inhibit (抑制) the children’s abilities. Learn about your kids; take care of them and their activities. Make them read books as it leads to creativity.

After a couple of days out of town, Denise Thompson arrived at her Kilkenny home on Sunday afternoon to a bizarre scene: her front lawn was gone.
Neighbors had noticed a white truck and trailer (拖车) at the home over the weekend — and the replacement (取代) of green grass with dark brown soil — but thought nothing of it, thinking it was a routine (日常的) landscaping job.
Thompson stayed home from work on Monday, talking to her puzzled insurance company about a $10,000 problem, and hoping that someone realized their mistake. When that didn’t happen, she turned to the news media.
By late Tuesday, The Journal’s story had become widespread, with 130,000 web hits and links from The Drudge Report and The New Yorker websites.
Thompson’s patience brought good results minutes after the story first appeared. The landscaper hadn’t seen the news, but came to her house at 7:30 pm on Monday to drop off a business card and a note.
“He was really apologetic about it,” Thompson said. “I’m not happy about it of course, but I am OK that he came forward finally and did apologize for it and is willing to fix it.”
Patrick Kukanu, owner of Kupak Landscapes Ltd., said it was a mistake. “Our BobCat guy was supposed to be three blocks down,” Kukanu said. “He had the wrong address.”
When the company realized what had happened on Saturday, Kukanu said several attempts were made to contact the homeowner or neighbors. The company offered to replace the lawn immediately on Tuesday, but that will wait.
“It’s just an honest mistake,” Kukanu said. “It’s an error and we’ll gladly correct it.”
53. The underlined word “bizarre” in the first paragraph probably means “ ”.
A. common B. beautiful C. strange D. moving
54. What happened when Thompson was away from home?
A. Her lawn was destroyed and covered with soil.
B. A truck ran into her house and caused huge losses.
C. A thief entered her house and stole a lot of money.
D. Her neighbor used her truck without her permission.
55. What can we learn from the text?
A. The insurance company will pay Thompson a lot of money.
B. Thompson’s neighbors knew nothing about what happened.
C. Thompson wouldn’t forgive the landscaper for his mistake.
D. Thompson’s story attracted a lot of interest on the Internet.
56. Why did the landscaper come to visit Thompson on Monday?
A. To make an apology to Thompson.
B. To leave a business card and a note.
C. To finish his landscaping work.
D. To replace the lawn immediately.
D
Here’s an easy choice: would you rather spend 4 minutes chatting to a good friend or to a complete stranger?
It’s safe to say most of us would choose our friend. With friends we can “be ourselves”, which means expressing our feelings freely. The problem with strangers is that we have to make much effort: psychologists (心理学家) call it “impression management”. We control our behavior more tightly and our impression management starts being very active. But according to recent research, there are hidden benefits to this effort and a lesson for all of us about how we should treat those we know well.
The researchers had participants (参与者) predict how pleasurable it would be to chat with their friends and a complete stranger.
They then had a quick chat and rated how good they felt afterwards. What they found was that people enjoyed talking to their friends less than they predicted. On the other hand, they had more fun talking to a stranger than they had predicted.
So what’s going on here? How can people be having more fun than they imagine talking to complete strangers and less with the person they are in a long-term relationship with?
What the researchers found was that it comes down to whether or not you’re making an effort. Sometimes when we talk to our friends we don’t make much effort to entertain them or to present ourselves in the best light. But we do tend to make much effort with strangers.
In a follow-up study the researchers told participants to make an effort with their friends and then their enjoyment of the social communication improved in line with their predictions. This suggests that we can all have more fun with our friends if we make an effort.
57. When we talk with strangers, we tend to .
A. hide our feelings B. control our behavior
C. express our feelings freely D. judge their first impression of us
58. What did the researchers find?
A. It was hard to talk with strangers.
B. Most people liked to talk with friends.
C. People had more fun talking with strangers.
D. Most people preferred to talk with strangers.
59. What can we conclude from the last paragraph?
A. Our friends are easier to entertain.
B. We don’t have much fun talking with friends.
C. We need make much effort talking with strangers.
D. We can have more fun with our friends through our effort.
60. The main purpose of the text is to let us learn about .
A. how to communicate with strangers
B. the benefits of talking to strangers
C. the way we should treat our friends
D. how to improve our communication skills
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。
A. The Internet never closes.
B. Shop any store worldwide.
C. Always find the best deals.
D. Find items you might not see in stores.
E. No more waiting in line and pushing through crowds.
F. Pay with a credit card safely, even to small merchants.
Top 5 reasons to shop online
Now that the Internet has exploded, thousands of merchants have put their entire inventory (存货目录) online for you to view and shop from whenever you want! There are many reasons why shopping online is so much better than shopping in stores.
Comparison shopping no longer means driving from store to store or flipping through many different ads. Comparing prices is literally just a click away. You can use search engines like Google or a specific comparison shopping website to easily find out which merchants have the lowest prices. Many times, stores will offer online exclusive (专卖的) sales, so it pays to shop online!
You can shop anytime online 24 hours every day. Online stores never close, so you never have to worry about making time to go to the store. Online shopping is perfect for night owls (夜猫子) or anyone who is just too busy to make a trip to the store.
Using credit cards to pay is easy, but sometimes your favorite small merchants can’t accept them. When you shop online, many dealers both big and small use PayPal. PayPal is a website that lets you create an account for free. You simply enter your information, and they act as a middleman when you make payments so merchants can’t see your information. Shopping this way is safe, and you will always be able to pay for the great products you want!
Malls and retail (零售) stores can be chaotic (吵杂的), especially during a big sale or a holiday season. Don’t stress yourself out, just shop from home! You’ll never have to stand in a long checkout line or weave your way through crowds just to get the items you want. Shop online and you can stay in the comfort of your own home.
Never again be limited geographically. Many merchants do not have physical stores in every state, and certainly not in every country. When you shop online, you can browse (浏览) through stores around the block or around the globe! Discover amazing new items from foreign places that you perhaps have never even heard of before.
