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A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并涂在答题卡上。
A
Whether you are hoping to relax or you are looking forward to staying active in the vacation, seeking out great hikes is a good choice. If you are planning a trip to southern California, or you live in San Diego, now it is time to search for new hiking trails （路线）. Here are some of the most popular hikes in San Diego.
Cedar Creek Falls
For this hike, you’ll hike from Cedar Creek Falls to the Devil’s Punch Bowl, which is a pool at the base of Cedar Creek Falls. It can really heat up in the summer, and it is hard to hike, so be sure to pack lots of water and protein-filled snacks.
Cuyamaca Peak （顶峰）
The peak is in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, and you’ll see plenty of snow-capped trees if you do this hike in the winter. There are 37 trails in the state park, but you’ll want to stick to Azalea Glen Loop. It’s a difficult seven-mile hike that will bring you right to Cuyamaca Peak.
Cowles Mountain
It is well known that Cowles Mountain is the highest point in San Diego—so it’s worth visiting for the fact that you can see Mexico from the peak. The three-mile hike is quite difficult. If you are willing to wake up before the sun, Cowles Mountain is a beautiful spot to watch the sunrise. It’s one of San Diego’s most popular hikes, so starting early might also help avoid the crowds.
Swami’s Beach
Take the trail from Swami’s Beach to Cardiff Beach and you will experience impressive ocean views and the smooth sound of the waves crashing onto the sand. As an easy out-and-back hike, the path is accessible （可进入的） from Swami’s Beach and is about three miles in total.
21．What do you need to take if you choose Cedar Creek Falls
A．A raincoat. B．An umbrella. C．Food and water. D．A hat and a map.
22．What is Cowles Mountain famous for
A．The difficult hiking trail. B．Being the peak in San Diego.
C．The great restaurant. D．The great length of the trail.
23．Which hiking trail will you choose if you want to see the sea
A．Cedar Creek Falls. B．Cuyamaca Peak. C．Cowles Mountain. D．Swami’s Beach.
B
It’s funny—as a writer, it’s easy to share your knowledge, or your personal stories with an unknown listener of many. You think your friends and family may not read your articles. But as I began to talk more openly about Chinese traditions and food, I learned that they were interested, curious and really hungered for it. Their interest and curiosity grew and the culmination of their interest and curiosity was this past Spring Festival. They would like to spend the Spring Festival with me. It was an inconvenient Monday. I’d never had the Spring Festival when anyone but my father cooked.
I took the day off work in a madness of last-minute preparation. I drove 45 minutes out of town to a Cantonese BBQ shop where I bought a whole roast duck （烤鸭） and watched, fascinated, as it was changed into bite sizes. I shopped at a faraway international market like a madwoman, looking for Chinese vegetables and other foods that would be new for my guests. I called my dad, asking for six-second pointers on how to make dishes I’d never made. I texted him pictures of the sea fish I picked out, and the red clothing they threw on for luck.
In just a few hours, I cooked a dinner of 15 dishes for six friends who cared enough about me and my culture to come over on a cold winter Monday night to celebrate my tradition with me. We drank, ate and toasted the beautiful night. And that night, I felt what it was to be loved for my culture as well as our food.
24．What does the underlined word “culmination” mean in paragraph 1
A．Top. B．Celebration. C．Tradition. D．Trouble.
25．What did the author do in the BBQ shop
A．She ate a whole roast duck. B．She took a roast duck.
C．She asked to cook a duck herself. D．She took beautiful photos of the duck.
26．What does the second paragraph mainly talk about
A．The shops the author went to. B．The author’s love of Chinese food.
C．The author’s preparation for dinner. D．The suggestions the author’s father gave.
27．What can we say about the author from the text
A．She is living with her father. B．She is a madwoman.
C．She is a world-famous writer. D．She is proud of Chinese culture.
C
By now we all know the importance of drinking enough water throughout the day, but there is such a thing as too much, Earlier this summer, a 35-year-old Indiana woman, died from water toxicity （毒性作用） after drinking too much water in a short period of time, according to a local news report.
While drinking enough water is important, overdoing it can lead to low levels of sodium （钠） in the blood, which can be life-threatening, according to Julia Zumpano, an expert at Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Human Nutrition.
Exactly how much is enough for our body depends on a variety of factors, including our weight, age, location and overall health. People in poor health, or active people such as athletes, are at risk of water toxicity, as they tend to drink large amounts of water and lose sodium through their sweat. So are women and children because of their smaller body size.
While the gold standard for many years has been eight glasses of 8 ounces （盎司） of water per day, the National Academy of Medicine suggests enough water intake is about 125 ounces for men and about 91 ounces for women. And it recommends not drinking more than 48 ounces of water per hour. This includes total water from fruits, vegetables and other drinks besides water.
If you struggle with getting enough water per day, you can try water bottles to help track your water intake. Eating fruits and vegetables can also increase our water intake. You could experiment with adding flavor to improve the taste of your water.
“Most people had better keep drinking water throughout the day, but larger amounts may be needed in the heat for an extended period of time or during exercise. If you are thirsty for water—listen to your body. But don’t overdo it.” says Zumpano.
28．How does the author introduce the topic of the text
A．By giving an example. B．By showing the findings.
C．By making a comparison. D．By putting up a question.
29．What effect may drinking too much water have on us
A．Putting on weight. B．Speeding up aging.
C．Cutting sodium in blood. D．Making us more active.
30．What do we know from paragraph 4
A．We must drink less than 48 ounces of water a day.
B．Women can take in more water than men an hour.
C．We can take in little water from fruits and vegetables.
D．We’d better drink about 64 ounces of water every day.
31．What can be the best title for the text
A．What is the result of water toxicity
B．How much water is too much water
C．Why do you find it difficult to drink enough water
D．How often need we remind ourselves to drink water
D
Nowadays, children spend less time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV—they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.
But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.
Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity, by giving wild time a go.”
So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted.”
This might sound a bit old-fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it made you think about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and reliving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!
32．What makes children lose touch with nature
A．Playing hide and seek. B．Going on adventures in parks.
C．Building dens frequently. D．Being addicted to a screen.
33．In Andy Simpson’s opinion, who should be persuaded to see the effect of wild time
A．Teachers. B．Parents. C．Children. D．Experts.
34．What might David probably agree
A．What modern children need is spiritual satisfaction.
B．Children always take it for granted to play outside.
C．Children need more time to get close to nature.
D．Parents should make larger rooms for kids to study.
35．What can be inferred from this passage
A．People at any age can enjoy wild time. B．Watching TV is a good way to learn about nature.
C．Everyone lives in a highpressure world. D．Adults all desire to go back to childhood.

How to Write a Movie Review
Whether it’s for pleasure or a job requirement, writing a good movie review can be a useful exercise. 36 If you’ve recently watched a film and want to share your opinions about it, here are some tips to help you compose a wonderful movie review.
Follow your main text with a short plot summary. It’s good to give readers an idea of the movie you’re reviewing. Give a brief summary of the main characters, the setting and the central conflict of the movie. Never break the number one rule of movie reviews: don’t give too much away. 37
Move into your analysis of the movie. Write several paragraphs discussing the interesting elements in the movie that support your points. Discuss the acting, the direction, the cinematography and the setting, keeping your writing clear and easy to understand. 38
Use plenty of examples to back up your points. If you make a statement about the movie, back it up with a descriptive example. Describe the way scenes look, the way a certain person acted, camera angles, and so on. 39 In this way you are giving your readers a feel of the movie and continuing to express your comments on the film at the same time.
40 You could treat your review like a formal college essay. But it’s more interesting if you make it your own. If your writing style is usually humorous or interesting, your review should be no exception. If you’re serious or dramatic, that works, too. Let your language and writing style reflect your unique view and personality—it’s much more entertaining for the readers.
A．Give it some personality.
B．Don’t ruin the movie for your readers.
C．It is necessary to keep a humorous writing style.
D．You should first watch enough movies on your own.
E．You can use dialogues to help you express your views.
F．So don’t use too many technical terms about film making.
G．It allows you to explore your personal connection with a film.

When I worked as a nurse, I was on day duty while my workmates were on night duty. On one shift, I sensed something just before going off duty at 11 am. I put down the tray （托盘） on the table and suddenly it fell off the table. At first I thought I had accidentally knocked it over, but then I felt the whole building shaking and heard patients were screaming.
I realized that an earthquake was happening. I quickly caught hold of a nearby patient, who was terribly frightened and pushed her under a bed. And then, I got under another bed myself. As soon as the earthquake stopped, I decided to try and get the patient safely outside. I carried her out and helped her down to the grassland, where several other people had gathered.
Afraid that my other workmates were in danger, I went back inside the building again. When I met Lucy, our charge nurse （护士长）, I found her patient couldn’t walk. We made a seat for the patient by linking our hands and arms, and carried her outside together. We went back through the building to check no one was left behind in our ward （病房）.
Just then, we saw that a man doctor was calling for volunteers to go down to other wards with him to help more people. So we went together. The doctor went ahead of us and found one of the nurses partially covered with rubble （碎石）, luckily still alive. Suddenly, the aftershock （余震） struck and the doctor ordered us to leave. The brave doctor intended to stay alone and risk his own life to save the nurse.

Dear Tom,
I am delighted that you are coming to China soon. Let me tell you something about Chinese eating culture.
Firstly, Chinese food has a great reputation for its delicious tastes and diverse cooking methods, which appeals to people at home and abroad. Typical examples are dumplings, noodles and hot pot, as you may have heard of. Besides, what highlights Chinese eating habits is the use of chopsticks. What’s more, it’s common for Chinese people to talk over meals, which is regarded as a sign of being friendly.
Looking forward to your coming.
Your
Li Hua
However, without any hesitation, we made up our minds to stay with the doctor and save the nurse together. The doctor encouraged the trapped nurse to stay calm, and in the meanwhile, we focused our efforts on removing the bricks and the rubble that trapped her body. However, sometimes we were faced with falling rubble from time to time, despite which we continued. Gradually and slowly, we lifted the nurse out of the rubble. The doctor put the nurse on his back and walked out of the building with the help of us. Finally, all, including patients, nurses and doctors, were in the safe place.
Later in the afternoon, I had time to look around and saw some destroyed buildings. My beautiful workplace lay beyond recognition, even some in ruins. At the sight of this, I felt a weight in my chest. Suddenly, the gentle wind danced around me, which made me think of all the people surviving the earthquake with our help. It was our teamwork that made a difference. I held the firm belief that some day in the future my workplace would come back to life and take on a new look, where we would continue working together to save more patients.

M: I think one reason I really admire her is because she’s so positive about everything. She always sees the good side of things. You know, if I take the children to see her, her grandchildren, sometimes they’re quite behaving badly, but she’ll always say, “Oh, they’ve been so good. It’s been so lovely to see them.” And that really is how she remembers it! When I was a depressed, moody teenager, she would say, “Depressed! When I was your age, I was always too busy to be depressed!” and I used to think, “Just go away, you’re so insensitive, you don’t understand my problems!” But now I’m older; I suppose I realise more that it’s not so easy to go through all the things that happen to you in life and still be so cheerful. I suppose I’ve got a lot more respect for her attitude now… and I hear about other people’s mothers and what a problem they can be, and think, “I’m really very lucky!”
