第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分45分）
第一节（共13小题；每小题2.5分，满分32.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Food Parts You Should Never Throw Away in the Garbage
Pineapple Core
When you carve out the core of a pineapple, don’t throw it in the garbage. You can use the pineapple core for all kinds of recipes, and there are tons of vitamins and minerals hiding within. To use the pineapple core: chop it and add it to fruit salad, blend it into smoothies, cut it into cubes and freeze for later use, or simply add it to water or even tea to improve flavor.
Kiwi Skin
If you never thought you could eat kiwi in the way you eat a peach, think again. That skin really is good for you and contains a lot of vitamin C, and in fact, it’s also higher in fiber than the rest of the fruit. Of course, that rough, ugly skin isn’t for everyone, so if you don’t like it, try adding a whole kiwi to a smoothie to hide the taste of the skin.
Banana Peel
Most of us eat the banana without giving the soft peel a second thought. Here’s why that’s a mistake: banana peel contains tryptophan （色氨酸）, which increases “the happiness hormone” to help with mood regulation and nerve system. There are a few creative ways to use the peel. Cook or boil for at least 10 minutes to soften. You can add it to smoothies, stir-fries, or soups. And, for a treat, simply slice and bake a banana with the skin on.
Watermelon Skin and Seed
The delicious, red inside makes for a refreshing snack or juice, but you’re able to get some powerful nutrients in the skin and seeds as well. Cut out the white part under the green outside and use it in your cooking. It has vitamin C and B6, to keep you healthy. As for the seeds, you can roast them in the oven. Then add them to salads or to nut snacks.
21. Which of the following has a larger amount of fiber than its other parts
A. Pineapple cores. B. Kiwi skin.
C. Banana peel. D. Watermelon skin and seeds.
22. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. All the food above can be added to smoothies.
B. Kiwi skin can be roasted in the oven.
C. Banana peel can help lift people’s moods.
D. The green part of watermelon has vitamin C and B6.
23. Where can we most probably read this text
A. In a botany instruction. B. In a medicine brochure.
C. In a fruitarian’s recipe. D. In a nutrition report.
B
One of the most important ways to learn and master the English language is to read, read, and read. It is said that a good reader is also a good writer and a good speaker. However, in today’s world, reading is something that most children dislike doing.
There are simply so many distractions （分心的事物） that books, magazines, and newspapers are often ignored and they are in favor of video games and movies. And while video games and movies also play a role in helping the child learn the English language, they still can’t quite compare to reading.
And as a result, kids are learning less and less. Take a look at an elementary level text book. You’ll notice that the books for elementary students are filled with pictures and colours. Those pictures and colours in the elementary level text books aren’t there just for the sake （缘由） of design. Colours and pictures make us more engaged in the act of learning grammar. They catch our attention and help us retain （保留） more of what we read. This is especially true for little children who enjoy fun English.
Children are quite easily distracted. When you ask them to sit down and read quietly, their minds will often wander and it won’t take long before you find them doodling （涂鸦） and not doing what you told them to do. But if a book is colourful enough to catch a kid’s attention, then you’ll have a better chance at getting the kid to sit down long enough to learn English.
The same principle holds true for interactivity （互动）. Like colours and pictures, interactive reading materials like English songs for kids also get the child engaged in what he or she is learning. Interactive reading materials get the child to focus since using them is almost like playing.
24.Why do children dislike reading
A. They prefer newspapers. B. They prefer films.
C. They prefer magazines. D. They prefer books.
25. Children will be interested in books that are ______.
A. full of pictures B. explained clearly C. written clearly D. not very hard
26. Colorful books can help the children ______.
A. do what they prefer B. have a good time
C. fix their attention for a longer time D. sit still and quietly
C
The U.S. Thanksgiving holiday is symbolized （象征） by its traditional food-roast turkey. But turkey is certainly not from Turkey. In fact, its English name is based on one big mistake. We could say it is a case of mistaken identity. The word “Turkey” has meant “the land of the Turks” since ancient times. In the mid-1500s, the word “turkey” was first used to refer to the bird in the English language.
The misunderstanding over the word happened because of two similar-looking kinds of birds.
There is an African bird called the guinea fowl （珍珠鸡）. It has dark feathers with white spots and a patch of brown on the back of its neck. Traders brought the guinea fowl to Europe through North Africa. This foreign bird came to Europe through Turkish lands. So, the English thought the bird as a “Turkish chicken”.
When Europeans came to North America, they saw a bird that looked like the guinea fowl. This bird was native to the North American continent. But they thought that it was the guinea fowl, which, at that time, was called the “turkey cock”, so they gave it the same name.
Hundreds of years later, we continue to call this North American bird “turkey”, even though it has no connection at all with the country Turkey, or even with Europe.
But English is not the only language with interesting names for this North American bird.
The Turkish call turkey “hindi”, the Turkish name for India. The reference （涉及） to India probably comes from the old, wrong idea that the New World was in Eastern Asia.
The French call it “dinde”, a name that also connects the bird to India. “Dinde” means “from India” in the French language. “Turkey” has similar names in several other languages.
27. What can we know from paragraph 1
A. The word “turkey” appeared in modern times.
B. Turkey’s English name is based on correct identity.
C. Americans like eating turkey in Thanksgiving holiday.
D. Both Turkey and turkey have similar meanings in English.
28. What does “it” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Eastern Asia. B. The French language.
C. The New World. D. The bird turkey.
29. What can be the best title for the text
A. How did Thanksgiving “turkey” get its name
B. How did Americans spend their Thanksgiving holiday
C. Why was the guinea fowl so popular with Americans
D. Why was the guinea fowl different from American turkeys
D
New research from Edith Cowan University (ECU) has found being confident in the kitchen is not only good for your taste buds, it’s also good for your mental health.
In total, 657 participants undertook the seven-week healthy cooking course. Researchers found those who participated in the program saw significant improvements in general health, mental health and subjective vitality immediately after the program which remained six months after completing the course, when compared to the study’s control group.
“Improving people’s diet quality can be a preventive strategy to stop or slow the rise in poor mental health, obesity and other health disorders,” Dr Joanna Rees said. “Future health programs should continue to prioritise （给予…优先权） the barriers to healthy eating such as poor food environments and time restrictions, while placing greater emphasis on the value of healthy eating via quick and easy home-cooked meals, rich in fruit and vegetables and avoiding processed convenience foods.”
The Institute has previously found a link between eating more fruits and vegetables, and improved longer term mental health in a larger study collecting more complex dietary data, implying the participants in the current study may have felt better due to improved diet. However, the study showed participants’ mental health improved despite their reported diet not being found to have changed after completing the program.
At the start of the program, 77 per cent of participants who identified as female claimed to be confident about cooking, compared to just 23 per cent of those who identified as male. But at the end of the program, cooking confidence and cooking skills were equal across both groups.
This change in confidence could see change to the household food environment by reducing the gender prejudice and leading to a gender balance in home cooking. This in turn may help to overcome some of the barriers presented by not knowing how to cook, such as easing the time limits which can lead to ready-made meals which are high in energy but low in nutritional value.
30. What can we learn from what Dr Joanna Rees said
A. Processed convenience foods benefit people.
B. Time restrictions lead to healthy eating.
C. He thinks it urgent to improve people’s diet quality.
D. Home-cooked meals are better choices.
31. What is the benefit of eating more fruit and vegetables
A. Better mental health. B. Improved memories.
C. Losing weight. D. Increasing creativity.
32. How did researchers know cooking can increase confidence
A. By answering questions. B. By making contrasts.
C. By giving examples. D. By analyzing causes.
33. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Is the Kitchen Revolution Important
B. Learning Cooking Course Turns Popular
C. Healthy Home Cooking Equals a Healthy Mind
D. Being Confident in the Kitchen Benefits Confidence

第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird ” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I’ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove down.
Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I am to mark your papers now,” he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test!” Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter’s was an English-Chinese dictionary-the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. “This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribution” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the wordlist. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-l-s-i-o-n,” he whispered. He had spelled it wrong.
“What am I to do ” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I’m a master in spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I’ll have to give my prize back, or I will become an example for telling a lie”. Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written at his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him, “We ought to be an honest person.”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

Slowly, Peter raised his hand. ____________________________________________________________________

第一节 小作文
参考范文
The Top Meal of the Day
A recent study shows that many students do not have breakfast. One reason is that they want to have a few extra minutes in bed. In addition, a few girls want to stay slim and often go to school without having breakfast. These make them feel sleepy all day and have bad memories, so it is hard for them to focus on their study efficiently.
It is said that breakfast can provide 30 percent of the whole day’s energy needs. And in order to have a creative mind and better performance, all students should start their day with a regular breakfast. So, having breakfast plays an important part in people’s lives.
第二节 读后续写
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Slowly, Peter raised his hand. “Mr. White, I didn’t get 100 percent on the test. I missed a word” He stood up and handed his teacher the dictionary he liked best and his test paper. “I spelled contribution with ‘s-i’ instead of ‘t-i’.” Peter could feel his classmates looking at him with surprise as he walked back to his desk. Mr. White held up Peter’s test paper. “Class,” he said, “Peter did something even more important than spelling every word correctly on a test.” Mr. White smiled at Peter. “He taught us all a lesson on being honest.”
Paragraph 2:
Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him. “Peter, I want you to have this dictionary because you set a good example for all of us,” Mr. White said. Peter took the dictionary from his teacher and expressed his thanks to Mr. White. Meanwhile, he couldn’t wait to show it to Mum and tell her one of his best days ever.

A
Food Parts You Should Never Throw Away in the Garbage
Pineapple Core
When you carve out the core of a pineapple, don’t throw it in the garbage. You can use the pineapple core for all kinds of recipes, and there are tons of vitamins and minerals hiding within. To use the pineapple core: chop it and add it to fruit salad, blend it into smoothies, cut it into cubes and freeze for later use, or simply add it to water or even tea to improve flavor.
Kiwi Skin
If you never thought you could eat kiwi in the way you eat a peach, think again. That skin really is good for you and contains a lot of vitamin C, and in fact, it’s also higher in fiber than the rest of the fruit. Of course, that rough, ugly skin isn’t for everyone, so if you don’t like it, try adding a whole kiwi to a smoothie to hide the taste of the skin.
Banana Peel
Most of us eat the banana without giving the soft peel a second thought. Here’s why that’s a mistake: banana peel contains tryptophan （色氨酸）, which increases “the happiness hormone” to help with mood regulation and nerve system. There are a few creative ways to use the peel. Cook or boil for at least 10 minutes to soften. You can add it to smoothies, stir-fries, or soups. And, for a treat, simply slice and bake a banana with the skin on.
Watermelon Skin and Seed
The delicious, red inside makes for a refreshing snack or juice, but you’re able to get some powerful nutrients in the skin and seeds as well. Cut out the white part under the green outside and use it in your cooking. It has vitamin C and B6, to keep you healthy. As for the seeds, you can roast them in the oven. Then add them to salads or to nut snacks.
21. Which of the following has a larger amount of fiber than its other parts
A. Pineapple cores. B. Kiwi skin.
C. Banana peel. D. Watermelon skin and seeds.
22. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. All the food above can be added to smoothies.
B. Kiwi skin can be roasted in the oven.
C. Banana peel can help lift people’s moods.
D. The green part of watermelon has vitamin C and B6.
23. Where can we most probably read this text
A. In a botany instruction. B. In a medicine brochure.
C. In a fruitarian’s recipe. D. In a nutrition report.

One of the most important ways to learn and master the English language is to read, read, and read. It is said that a good reader is also a good writer and a good speaker. However, in today’s world, reading is something that most children dislike doing.
There are simply so many distractions （分心的事物） that books, magazines, and newspapers are often ignored and they are in favor of video games and movies. And while video games and movies also play a role in helping the child learn the English language, they still can’t quite compare to reading.
And as a result, kids are learning less and less. Take a look at an elementary level text book. You’ll notice that the books for elementary students are filled with pictures and colours. Those pictures and colours in the elementary level text books aren’t there just for the sake （缘由） of design. Colours and pictures make us more engaged in the act of learning grammar. They catch our attention and help us retain （保留） more of what we read. This is especially true for little children who enjoy fun English.
Children are quite easily distracted. When you ask them to sit down and read quietly, their minds will often wander and it won’t take long before you find them doodling （涂鸦） and not doing what you told them to do. But if a book is colourful enough to catch a kid’s attention, then you’ll have a better chance at getting the kid to sit down long enough to learn English.
The same principle holds true for interactivity （互动）. Like colours and pictures, interactive reading materials like English songs for kids also get the child engaged in what he or she is learning. Interactive reading materials get the child to focus since using them is almost like playing.
24.Why do children dislike reading
A. They prefer newspapers. B. They prefer films.
C. They prefer magazines. D. They prefer books.
25. Children will be interested in books that are ______.
A. full of pictures B. explained clearly C. written clearly D. not very hard
26. Colorful books can help the children ______.
A. do what they prefer B. have a good time
C. fix their attention for a longer time D. sit still and quietly
C
The U.S. Thanksgiving holiday is symbolized （象征） by its traditional food-roast turkey. But turkey is certainly not from Turkey. In fact, its English name is based on one big mistake. We could say it is a case of mistaken identity. The word “Turkey” has meant “the land of the Turks” since ancient times. In the mid-1500s, the word “turkey” was first used to refer to the bird in the English language.
The misunderstanding over the word happened because of two similar-looking kinds of birds.
There is an African bird called the guinea fowl （珍珠鸡）. It has dark feathers with white spots and a patch of brown on the back of its neck. Traders brought the guinea fowl to Europe through North Africa. This foreign bird came to Europe through Turkish lands. So, the English thought the bird as a “Turkish chicken”.
When Europeans came to North America, they saw a bird that looked like the guinea fowl. This bird was native to the North American continent. But they thought that it was the guinea fowl, which, at that time, was called the “turkey cock”, so they gave it the same name.
Hundreds of years later, we continue to call this North American bird “turkey”, even though it has no connection at all with the country Turkey, or even with Europe.
But English is not the only language with interesting names for this North American bird.
The Turkish call turkey “hindi”, the Turkish name for India. The reference （涉及） to India probably comes from the old, wrong idea that the New World was in Eastern Asia.
The French call it “dinde”, a name that also connects the bird to India. “Dinde” means “from India” in the French language. “Turkey” has similar names in several other languages.
27. What can we know from paragraph 1
A. The word “turkey” appeared in modern times.
B. Turkey’s English name is based on correct identity.
C. Americans like eating turkey in Thanksgiving holiday.
D. Both Turkey and turkey have similar meanings in English.
28. What does “it” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Eastern Asia. B. The French language.
C. The New World. D. The bird turkey.
29. What can be the best title for the text
A. How did Thanksgiving “turkey” get its name
B. How did Americans spend their Thanksgiving holiday
C. Why was the guinea fowl so popular with Americans
D. Why was the guinea fowl different from American turkeys
D
New research from Edith Cowan University (ECU) has found being confident in the kitchen is not only good for your taste buds, it’s also good for your mental health.
In total, 657 participants undertook the seven-week healthy cooking course. Researchers found those who participated in the program saw significant improvements in general health, mental health and subjective vitality immediately after the program which remained six months after completing the course, when compared to the study’s control group.
“Improving people’s diet quality can be a preventive strategy to stop or slow the rise in poor mental health, obesity and other health disorders,” Dr Joanna Rees said. “Future health programs should continue to prioritise （给予…优先权） the barriers to healthy eating such as poor food environments and time restrictions, while placing greater emphasis on the value of healthy eating via quick and easy home-cooked meals, rich in fruit and vegetables and avoiding processed convenience foods.”
The Institute has previously found a link between eating more fruits and vegetables, and improved longer term mental health in a larger study collecting more complex dietary data, implying the participants in the current study may have felt better due to improved diet. However, the study showed participants’ mental health improved despite their reported diet not being found to have changed after completing the program.
At the start of the program, 77 per cent of participants who identified as female claimed to be confident about cooking, compared to just 23 per cent of those who identified as male. But at the end of the program, cooking confidence and cooking skills were equal across both groups.
This change in confidence could see change to the household food environment by reducing the gender prejudice and leading to a gender balance in home cooking. This in turn may help to overcome some of the barriers presented by not knowing how to cook, such as easing the time limits which can lead to ready-made meals which are high in energy but low in nutritional value.
30. What can we learn from what Dr Joanna Rees said
A. Processed convenience foods benefit people.
B. Time restrictions lead to healthy eating.
C. He thinks it urgent to improve people’s diet quality.
D. Home-cooked meals are better choices.
31. What is the benefit of eating more fruit and vegetables
A. Better mental health. B. Improved memories.
C. Losing weight. D. Increasing creativity.
32. How did researchers know cooking can increase confidence
A. By answering questions. B. By making contrasts.
C. By giving examples. D. By analyzing causes.
33. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Is the Kitchen Revolution Important
B. Learning Cooking Course Turns Popular
C. Healthy Home Cooking Equals a Healthy Mind
D. Being Confident in the Kitchen Benefits Confidence

第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird ” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I’ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove down.
Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I am to mark your papers now,” he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test!” Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter’s was an English-Chinese dictionary-the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. “This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribution” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the wordlist. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-l-s-i-o-n,” he whispered. He had spelled it wrong.
“What am I to do ” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I’m a master in spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I’ll have to give my prize back, or I will become an example for telling a lie”. Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written at his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him, “We ought to be an honest person.”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
Slowly, Peter raised his hand. ____________________________________________________________________

第一节 小作文
参考范文
The Top Meal of the Day
A recent study shows that many students do not have breakfast. One reason is that they want to have a few extra minutes in bed. In addition, a few girls want to stay slim and often go to school without having breakfast. These make them feel sleepy all day and have bad memories, so it is hard for them to focus on their study efficiently.
It is said that breakfast can provide 30 percent of the whole day’s energy needs. And in order to have a creative mind and better performance, all students should start their day with a regular breakfast. So, having breakfast plays an important part in people’s lives.
第二节 读后续写
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Slowly, Peter raised his hand. “Mr. White, I didn’t get 100 percent on the test. I missed a word” He stood up and handed his teacher the dictionary he liked best and his test paper. “I spelled contribution with ‘s-i’ instead of ‘t-i’.” Peter could feel his classmates looking at him with surprise as he walked back to his desk. Mr. White held up Peter’s test paper. “Class,” he said, “Peter did something even more important than spelling every word correctly on a test.” Mr. White smiled at Peter. “He taught us all a lesson on being honest.”
Paragraph 2:
Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him. “Peter, I want you to have this dictionary because you set a good example for all of us,” Mr. White said. Peter took the dictionary from his teacher and expressed his thanks to Mr. White. Meanwhile, he couldn’t wait to show it to Mum and tell her one of his best days ever.
