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）
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
It was a physical class. But it was nothing like previous ones — the class was “attended” by over 60 million students across China, and the teacher was not even on the planet she was 340 kilometers above the earth.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Wang Yaping. I’ll host your lecture today.” Smiling to the camera, Wang, China’s second female astronaut, started her video class on June 20 on board the Tiangong-1 space station.
To show how Newton’s Laws work in space, Wang and her fellow astronauts used simple items like balls and spinning tops. The highlight of the lecture was when Wang made a film of water using a metal ring, something that only happens in zero gravity, where the surface tension(张力) of water is much higher than it is on the earth. She then took it a step further by pouring more water onto the film and turning it into a water ball, leaving the audience amazed by what they saw.
The 40-minute lesson seemed to have passed too quickly for students to see enough of those magical experiments. But sending stuff into space is really expensive. According to The Beijing Times, every kilogram launched into space cost 20,000 dollars. The experimental items taken this time were all strictly selected and weighed about 2.9 kilograms in total. This adds up to quite a large price tag.
The organizers of the event also had to consider the time of day the communication signal between the earth and Tiangong-1 was best during that specific 40 minutes, when the spacecraft was flying within the coverage of all of the ground-based testing stations.
21. Why is the class different from a common one?
A. Because it took 40 minutes.
B. Because the lecturer was in space.
C. Because over 60 million students across the world attended it.
D. Because the teacher was on the planet.
22. One of the experiments shows .
A. object motion under weight conditions
B. laws of physics under weight conditions
C. how Newton’s Laws work on the earth
D. laws of physics under weightless conditions
23. Which phrase can best replace the underlined words “made a film of water” in the passage?
A. took a photo of water. B. made a thin layer of water.
C. recorded moving pictures of water. D. all the above.
24. Which of the following statements can be the best title of the passage?
A. Teaching on Physics. B. Teaching Experiments.
C. Teaching from the Sky. D. Teaching by an Astronaut.
B

Camilla Broomstick, a missing Camden –area woman, was reported found inside her damaged Chevrolet Malibu Sunday afternoon in?a County near Camden New?Jersey, at the bottom of an embankment(路堤) off a highway, according to authorities. Her?car, turned upside down, was spotted by a passer-by who had stopped to view scenery and noticed something shining and what looked like a body, authorities said.
When emergency responders arrived, they found Broomstick alive inside her severely damaged car. The vehicle?rested upside down after flying 120 feet off the highway and rolling an additional 200 feet into an?aspen woods.
“The crash alone would have killed her,” New?Jersey State Trooper Dean Enoch said. “It's?surprising that she survived the crash at all, and then to be down there for that amount of days without?food or water.”
Earlier Monday, the family released a statement at the hospital thanking emergency responders who rushed Broomstick to the hospital and to the man who found her and notified authorities.
“We sincerely appreciate all the thoughts, prayers and kind gestures from the community during such a?hard time for our family,” the statement read. “While we're hopeful of her prognosis(愈后), Camilla was?seriously injured and with multiple internal and external injuries. Later this afternoon Camilla will be?undergoing surgery here to amputate(截肢) both of her feet. Doctors were not able to save her feet due to the?serious injuries. Camilla is in critical but stable condition at this time and has a very long?road ahead.”
In the statement, family members mentioned reports that Broomstick wrote a request for help on an umbrella she pushed out the car window.?“We cannot comment on that right now because we have not seen the umbrella,” the statement said. Family members also asked that the public respect their privacy.
28. Who found the severely damaged car?
A. The authorities. B. Emergency responders.
C.A passer-by. D. Her families.
29. Where was the damaged car when it was found?
A. 200 feet from the high way. B. 320 feet from the high way.
C. 120 feet from the high way. D. 220 feet from the high way.
30. What can we know from the passage ?

B. Camilla Broomstick had a good body.

D. Camilla Broomstick was bad in driving.
31. What is implied in the last two paragraphs?

If you put a buzzard（秃鹰） in a pen(围栏) six to eight feet square and entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be a prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet. Without space to run, it will not even attempt to fly, but remain a prisoner for life in a small prison with no top.? The ordinary bat that flies around at night, a remarkably nimble creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is to shuffle about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight height from which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash. A bumblebee (大黄蜂), if dropped into an open tumbler(平底玻璃杯), will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but insists on trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom. It will seek a way where none exists until it completely destroys itself.? ? In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee. They are struggling about with all their problems and frustrations, not realizing that the answer is right there above them.
32. Why does a buzzard choose to stay in a pen?
A. Because it is safe to live there.
B. Because it gets used to living there.
C. Because it lost its ability to fly.
D. Because it cannot take off within an limited area.
33. The underlined word “ shuffle ” in the second paragraph probably means “ .”
A. to run slowly B. to pace slowly C. to fly slowly D. to move slowly 34. A bumblebee will completely destroy itself for .
A. it is dropped into an open cage B. it does not look for a way out above
C. it does not try to find a way to escape D. it hurts itself while flying
35. In which way are many people similar to a buzzard, an ordinary bat and a bumblebee?
A. They do not seek new ways to deal with difficulties.
B. They are overcoming all their problems and frustrations.
C. They are all content with the things as they are.
D. They choose to give in to problems and frustrations.

We spend so much time waiting to be loved, hoping love will find us, and looking for that special love．Unfortunately, that’s not usually how life works. To be loved, you should love and respect yourself as much as you do others. In order to love someone, you should love yourself．
●Stop comparing yourself to others． 36 We all have different gifts．When you compare yourself to others for what they have, whether it is a car, a house, or a job, it makes you feel bad about yourself. Really be grateful about everything you have. Gratitude keeps your heart open to love．
●Practice receiving love. To truly love is to be able to receive it. When someone loves you, does some kind deeds to you, or says kind words, accept it． 37 Know that you are worthy of love. It is important to accept a gift of love by others. You give yourself a chance to learn more about yourself that you are lovable． 38
● 39 Write about your experiences, good and bad. When you write down good experiences, allow yourself to feel those feelings. When you remember bad experiences, allow yourself to feel self-compassion. Compassion is not self-pity, but rather willingness to accept one's own pain and regret．
●Stop trying to be perfect. Stop blaming yourself for being less than perfect． 40
Just follow all the steps above and don't let anyone's expectations of you put any pressure on you．
A. Keep a diary．

Dear Sandy,
I’m going to study in Chicago University next month, so I have to find somewhere of my own. I need to share the house or apartment because housing is so expensive in Chicago, you know. But I need to study, so I need a room of my own at lower price (about 250 dollars per month). Please find me a place that’s close to transportation, for it is not easy for me, a first-year student, to find a good part-time job soon.
Please e-mail me if you have anything. My e-mail address is teresa@ yahoo.com. I’ m looking forward to seeing you!
Love,
Teresa

【参考范文】
Dear Sir or Madam,
My name is Li Hua, and I was a passenger on Flight HZH9211 of your airline, returning from abroad on April 23, 2015. Unfortunately, I found that my suitcase got lost when I arrived at the airport. I am therefore writing to ask for your help in finding my suitcase.
The suitcase is a yellow one, 80cm long, 40cm wide and 25cm thick, with my name tag on the back. It contains many important personal files and some scientific materials. There are also some presents I bought for my family members and friends. It will be a great disappointment to me if I can’t find it.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could help find my lost suitcase. I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Li Hua
