第二部分 阅读（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
Yellowstone National Park
Yellowstone is open year-round to visitors, though experiences differ depending on the season you visit.
March-May: Snow can continue to fall into March and many of the roads may remain closed, with ploughing usually
beginning some time in April. Hiking conditions at this time are wet. You won’t find many crowds, for good reason.
June-August: The busiest time of year in the park is July and August, as families arrive in their droves and temperatures
rise up into the mid-20s (℃). Backcountry trails are fully open and this is the ideal time to go hiking.
September-October: By September, the weather is pretty mild (highs of 19℃ in September). Bears can be spotted by
roadside as they try desperately to fatten up before winter.
November-February: Temperatures can drop below zero, but this also yields some unique experiences. Elk and bison are
already migrating in impressive herds and this is a great time for wolf spotting-their dark coats are much easier to see against
a white backdrop of snow. Wolf-tracking trips are a must.
Cost of travel
Entrance fees for Yellowstone are 16 for individuals and an additional 30 for a car. Campsites vary in price, costing as
little as 12.50 per night.
Accommodation
During the peak summer months, prices rise and rooms are booked up long in advance. In winter just a handful of the
park’s lodges remain open.
21．Where is this text probably taken from
A．A research report. B．A science newspaper.
C．A travel brochure. D．A geography textbook.
22．Which month is most suitable for hiking in Yellowstone National Park
A．July. B．April. C．October. D．November.
23．How much should a couple driving a car pay for entrance fees
A． 46. B． 44.5. C． 32. D． 62.

The day before yesterday, when Peter’s family were having dinner, Father raised an interesting question, “Was there
anything in our past that we feel ashamed of, guilty about, or regretted Maybe we can find ways to say sorry, or take some
action to right any wrongdoing.” This seemed like a very private matter, but Peter thought about it carefully the whole night.
Peter remembered an incident from middle school. In his school, there was a worker, Neil Stone, who none of the kids
liked. One night, Peter and two of his classmates decided to play a trick on him. They found a can of red paint, and wrote on
the school main road in bright red: Neil Stone is a fool! The next day, the whole school saw these words. Within two hours,
Neil had Peter and his two classmates in his office. His classmates said that they had done it but Peter lied and denied the
truth.
This morning, Peter went back to his middle school. Neil Stone is still working there. “Sorry, Neil. Do you still remember
3
what happened ten years ago I want you to know that I did it.” “I knew it!’ Neil laughed. They had a good laugh and a lively
discussion. Neil’s closing words were: “Peter, I always felt bad for you because your classmates got it off their mind, and I
knew you were carrying it around all these years. I want to thank you for visiting me… for your sake.”
Peter knows that no matter how difficult the situation is, it is never too late to clear up the past and make a fresh start.
24．What did Peter remember doing in middle school
A．Something helpful. B．Something unpleasant.
C．Something valuable. D．Something useful.
25．What color were the words “Neil Stone is a fool!”
A．Dark blue. B．Light green.
C．Pure white. D．Bright red.
26．When did Neil know who wrote the words on the school main road
A．Ten years ago. B．The day before yesterday.
C．This morning. D．Not until Peter told him.

C．It’s never too late to say sorry. D．An interesting thing in middle school.

Have you ever heard of agritourism where you can experience the farm life If not, Dr. Cindy Ayers Elliott will tell you
the real story of Foot Print Farms.
The original concept of building Foot Print Farms was simple. When Ayers Elliott returned to her hometown after
graduation, she didn’t have to look any further than her state’s alarming health statistics to find a mission. Everywhere she
turned, there were reports of high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity and heart disease. “The problem was already identified,”
explains Ayers Elliott. “Too many Mississippians were seriously unhealthy and it didn’t do research to see that. And many of
the state’s greatest health challenges could directly result from poor diet.”
These days, Foot Print Farms, which started with a few raised beds of herbs and vegetables, is making fresh , naturally
grown food. “Speaking of the key to my success, the co-op(合作商店) model works because we share the work and rewards,”
notes Ayers Elliott. “A perfect example is the Wingfield High School football team. To earn the money for equipment and
other items, players committed to working five hours a week on the farm, and by the end of the summer they produced 1,000
melons and the profits from their sales helped to buy weights, T-shirts, sweatsuits and pregame meals. But the lessons they
learned about the rewards of hard work and working together to accomplish something were even more valuable products of
their efforts.”
“It’s a model that can easily be learned in other places and I’m looking forward to seeing some of our current partners
do just that — to take what they have learned here and spin it off in other communities,” Ayers Elliott remarks. She is now
looking forward to developing an agritourism area, where visitors can experience the farm life, learn new skills and take with
them seeds of inspiration they can sow in their own communities when they return home.
1．What made Ayers Elliott set up Foot Print Farms
A．The problems faced by local farmers. B．Her further research into heart disease.
C．The failure of her career after graduation. D．The health state of people in her hometown.
2．Why does the author take the football team as an example
A．To advocate the concept of independence. B．To stress the importance of teamwork.
C．To support the idea of the co-op model. D．To explore the key to success.
4
3．What is Ayers Elliot’s attitude towards the future of Foot Print Farms
A．Optimistic. B．Skeptical. C．Cautious. D．Ambiguous.
4．What is the main idea of the text
A．Naturally grown food benefits people’s health.
B．Food Print Farms is making a difference in Mississippi.
C．Ayers Elliott encourages people to keep a healthy diet.
D．Agritourism is becoming increasingly popular in America.

In 1986, I watched my first soccer match on my parents’ big box television. I was six, and ever since then, I have dreamed
of attending the World Cup.
This year, I traveled to Brazil to make my dream a reality. The first match I attended was between Australia and Spain.
Within minutes of walking into the stadium, I found myself surrounded by the excited fans, talking and cheering together.
Unlike what one normally sees on the news, this match was mainly peaceful except for one fight. When the fight started, the
whole section began chanting(呼喊)with one voice, asking those fighting to stop. When they didn’t, the rabble-rousers were
sent out by security guards minutes later.
What struck me about the games I attended was the sense of camaraderie. I met soccer fans from different countries.
Sometimes we were cheering for the same team and sometimes for opposite teams, but that didn’t stop us from becoming
friends. The stands were not divided between teams, and the interaction was often spirit-lifting.
I also watched the game in Sao Paulo that ousted(淘汰)Brazil from the World Cup. I was with friends at a large bar
which hosted a mix of Brazilian and German supporters. As Germany scored one goal after another, the sadness and even
tears were visible on the faces of Brazilians. But German fans came to the Brazilians to comfort them and apologize that the
game was ending with such a big gap. Everyone was hoping for a good match.
What I love about the World Cup is that it provides a chance for people to learn about other countries and cultures. People
learn about the countries of the teams they support and about their opponents’ history and culture. Soccer is a game that not
only gives people the chance to learn about each other but also has the potential to unite people.
Sports can be a dividing force, but the true spirit of sports is about unity and fun. The matches at this World Cup have
been exactly that so far, and I hope it remains so.
1．What does the underlined word “rabble-rousers” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The injured players. B．The fighting fans
C．The excited viewers. D．The security guards
2．What impressed the author most about the games that he attended
A．The chanting fans. B．The peaceful atmosphere.
C．The warm friendship D．The players’ performance.
3．Why did the author mention his bar experience
A．To present a fact. B．To illustrate a point.
C．To solve a problem. D．To make a comparison.
4．What is mainly conveyed in the passage
A．Fans’ support counts in sports. B．The World Cup is worth attending.
C．Sports bring the world together. D．Sports are about cultural exchange.

Benefits of Reading
The benefits of reading start with the first book a baby hears and continue into childhood and throughout the child’s life.
Here are some reasons why reading is important.
Reading teaches children about the world around them. ___36___They are exposed to ways of life, ideas and beliefs
about the world which may be different from those which surround them. This builds a store of background knowledge, which
helps younger children learn to read confidently.
___37___When we read, our brains translate the descriptions we read of people , places and things into pictures. When
we are reading a story, we are also imagining how the characters are feeling. We use our own experiences to imagine how we
would feel in the same situation
Children who read do better at school. And they don’t just do better at subjects like reading, English and history.
___38___
Reading is a great form of entertainment! A paperback book or an e-reader doesn’t take up much space so you can take
it anywhere and you’ll never be lonely or bored if you have a book in your bag. ___39___
Reading relaxes the body and calms the mind. ___40___The constant movement, flashing lights and noise are quite
stressful for our brains. When we read in silence, the black print on a white page is much less stressful for our eyes and brains.

B．Reading develops a child’s imagination.
C．We seem to have forgotten how to relax and how to be silent.
D．Children learn new words and greatly enlarge their vocabulary.
