三、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,每小题2分,共30分)
阅读下面的材料,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Recently, I moved from England to Canada. I teach English in a middle school. I thought that Canada would be a second home since we speak the same language. However, it turns out that there are some differences they don't show you on TV, or in books!
Stop signs Even when driving in the middle of the night, every Canadian I've seen will stop at the stop signs in the street. It seems that Canadians are much more careful drivers.
Electrical plugs In England, electrical plugs for your computers or mobile phones are heavy and solid (坚硬的). In Canada, they always fall out of the wall. Not great when you're drying your hair!
Water Seriously, in Canada, water fountains (饮水器) are everywhere! It's convenient (方便的), especially in places like supermarkets and parks. Somebody told me this is because Canada has a lot of fresh water.
Advertisements (广告) on TV A one-hour TV show in Canada is actually only about 50 minutes; the other 10 minutes are advertisements. I'll never complain (抱怨) about advertisements on British TV again because some British channels (频道) don't have any advertisements at all!
( )1. What does the writer work as in Canada
A. A driver. B. A teacher. C. A reporter. D. A trader.
( )2. What does the writer think of Canadian drivers
A. Careful. B. Friendly. C. Active. D. Hard-working.
( )3. What does the writer think are convenient in Canada
A. TV shows. B. Stop signs. C. Electrical plugs. D. Water fountains.

If you travel to another country, you'll probably experience some embarrassment (难堪), and perhaps a few surprises. In fact, it's common for anyone who travels far and goes into a different culture.
Neil lives in Toronto, Canada. Last summer, his English friends Vic and Esther came to visit him. On their last evening there, they invited Neil out to dinner. After enjoying a nice meal in a restaurant, Vic left a $20 tip (小费) for the waiter. The bill was almost $200 and in Canada, it's normal (正常的) to leave a 15% tip. The waiter looked sad — he must have thought Vic was really unhappy about his service! Actually, it's common to leave a 10% tip in the UK. Neil didn't want to embarrass Vic by putting more money on the table, so in the end, he quietly gave the waiter another $10.
Daniela is from Colombia. She clearly remembers the first party she went to soon after she got to Australia. The people were friendly and the food was wonderful, but all the time she didn't hear any music or see any dancing. After all, in Daniela's country, a party isn't a party if there's no music or dancing! Daniela left early that day, which probably wasn't very polite, but she just felt so out of place then.
Haneul comes from Seoul, South Korea. A few years ago, Haneul went to meet her Italian friend Luna at the airport in Seoul. When seeing Haneul, Luna ran over and hugged her and kissed her on both cheeks (脸颊). Haneul felt very embarrassed! People were looking at them and some children were even laughing. Anyway, kissing and hugging in public is not how people usually behave (表现) in her country. There was nothing wrong with what Luna did, but Haneul really didn't know what to do about it at the time.
( )6. The waiter was sad because _______.
A. he couldn't speak English
B. he was given a very small tip
C. he made a mistake in the bill
D. he didn't serve Neil and his friends well

( )8. What does the underlined part “out of place” in Paragraph 3 probably mean in Chinese
A. 愤愤不平 B. 格格不入 C. 依依不舍 D. 念念不忘
( )9. What do we know about Haneul
A. She likes singing and dancing with her friends.
B. She feels embarrassed to kiss and hug in public.
C. She went to South Korea to meet her friend Luna.
D. She got angry with Luna because of her impoliteness.

C
Students usually go to school from Monday to Friday. But some schools in the US are getting shorter weeks. Classes go for four days instead of five.
There are some reasons for this change. School leaders hope longer weekends may give teachers a good rest. And schools could spend less money on buses or electricity.
But is a four-day school week better for students and parents
Some experts (专家) did research to find out the effects (影响). They talked to people about the change. “Some people really like it,” said Christopher Doss, an expert. “Parents get to spend more time with their kids. And they think everyone can be less stressed (有压力的) and sleep more.”
The experts didn't just want opinions though. They looked at the data (数据). “In fact, we could not find a lot of data to support (支持) the parents,” Doss said. Parents did spend more time with their kids. But the study didn't find that they were less stressed.
The experts also discovered a problem. “We found that kids probably learned a little less every year,” Doss said. “That can add up to a lot less.” So the question is while the change is welcomed, is it worth (值得) having kids learn less
Many students have their own ideas about the change. “I think weeks should be four days,” Chris said. “Every Sunday, I wish for just one more day to prepare for school.” Maya is more in the middle. “I don't mind a four-day week, but I still like school,” she said. “The bad side is that Tuesday will feel like Monday!”
Are you for a four-day week Or are you OK with five
( )11. What are the reasons that some schools in the US are getting shorter weeks
①To save money.
②To give teachers a good rest.
③To make parents less stressed.
④To help kids get better prepared for school.
A. ②③ B. ①② C. ③④ D. ②④
( )12. What kind of data did the experts fail to find
A. Those to support students' ideas.
B. Those to support school leaders' ideas.
C. Those to show parents were less stressed.
D. Those to show parents spent more time with their children.
( )13. What problem did the experts find about the four-day school week
A. Students learned less.
B. Students had busier weekends.
C. Parents had less time to care for their kids.
D. Parents had to learn to teach their kids by themselves.
( )14. The writer wrote the passage to _______.
A. explain why it's good to get the four-day school week
B. show people's opinions about the four-day school week
C. encourage more schools to get the four-day school week
D. introduce how different schools get the four-day school week
( )15. In which part of a website can we read the passage
A. Travel. B. Culture. C. History. D. Society.

Over the past twenty years, Shi Yanchun has helped restore (修复) more than 1,000 cultural relics (文物) in Shanxi Province.
Born into a folk (民间的) art family in Liaoning Province in 1970, Shi is the fourth generation (一代人) of his family to work with painted clay sculptures (泥塑). He has shown an interest in traditional Chinese arts since he was a child and learned from his grandfather, a famous painted clay sculpture folk artist. With hard work and talent (天赋), Shi progressed quickly.
In 1990, Shi began to work on painted clay sculptures across the country. “During the process, I had the chance to learn more from local artists and workers, which helped improve my abilities,” Shi said.
In 1998, Shi and his father were invited to restore a painted sculpture at the Faxing Temple in Changzhi, Shanxi. To improve his understanding of the ancient artwork, Shi visited lots of sites with ancient sculptures. Finally, the father-and-son team's work turned out to be a great success.
According to records, there are more than 2,000 painted temple sculptures in Changzhi that were made between the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. “They are great treasures in China,” Shi said. To do more research on them, Shi decided to live in Changzhi in 2006. Over the following years, he spent most of his time restoring sculptures and studying the ancient art and its skills. And in 2010, he set up the Shanxi Changzhi Painted Sculpture Art Research Institute. He was also invited to give speeches across the country.
“I hope I can help spread traditional Chinese culture, as well as passing down the skills of restoring painted sculptures,” said Shi.

This is the photo that I like best. It was taken by my mother eight years ago when I was only seven. In the photo, I am standing at the top of Mount Hua happily.
On that day, my parents took me to climb Mount Hua. It was not an easy thing. When I was halfway to the top, I was so tired that I could hardly go any further and wanted to give up. But my parents cheered me on. I didn't want to let them down. So I climbed and climbed. Finally, I reached the top! Excitement filled my heart.
From then on, whatever I do, when I think of the photo, it will give me the courage to try my best to do it.
