第二部分阅读（共两节，满分50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
From this issue, we explore why the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Institute hasn’t turned up anything since its founding in the 1980s. (See page 30 for more.) We asked our Facebook followers: Do you think that astronomers will find evidence of alien life in your lifetime?
Loran McCormick: I think they already have it. Judging by the sudden industrialization, I figure they found something that’s probably been here since before humans walked the Earth.
Jens Avery: We may find life, but it may not want anything to do with us. We are not very advanced and can’t even get along with each other.
Steven Buhrow: I think the more important question is—will any government ever publicly admit it in our lifetime? I fully believe that we could discover alien life today and the government would simply say the public is not ready for this information.
Jenna Walsh: I think we already see it, but just don’t realize what it is. Intelligent alien life probably doesn’t want anything to do with the disaster that is Earth at this point, so no doubt they’re playing it safe and observing from a safe distance.
Christopher Harvey: By alien life, do you mean intelligent alien life? Then no. It would be extremely hard to find, short of them coming down to Earth. But if you mean unintelligent alien life, like bacteria or single cell, we might.
21. We asked the Facebook followers the question to __________.
A. question the efficiency of SETI B. confirm the appearance of aliens on earth
C. ensure the existence of aliens D. complain about the failure to find Aliens
22. Who doubts the ever visits of aliens to the earth?
A. Loran McCormick B. Steven Buhrow
C. Jenna Walsh D. Christopher Harvey
23. This passage may be taken from a (n) __________.
A. album B. science fiction
C. magazine D. travel guide
B
The Tibet autonomous region has placed nearly half its land area under the strictest ecological supervision (监督). It was announced at an annual meeting of the regional People’s Congress, which kicked off on Wednesday.
The ecological protection area, which covers more than 539,000 square kilometers, makes up 45 percent of the region’s area, and 22 ecological reserves have been built and are operational. According to a government work report, the rate of days with good air quality in Tibet’s cities has reached 99.4 percent, and all the region’s drinking water sources have met applicable standards.
The report also said that the number of Tibetan antelope (羚) in the region has risen to more than 200,000, wildlife species to 1,072 and black-necked cranes to more than 8,000. Five rare new species have been discovered in recent years. The region has spent 12.2 billion yuan ($1.9 billion) on ecological protection projects in recent years. Five cities and three counties have been named as national-level ecologically civilized model cities and counties, and more rural residents have benefited financially by undertaking part-time ecological protection work.
More advanced monitoring facilities have been in place in the reserve, with more ecological protection inspectors employed to undertake protection work. The professional ecological inspectors are provided with basic tools such as motorcycles, telescopes and paging receivers, and they provide feedback regularly. Professional inspectors also receive one week of training every year from professors at TibetUniversity.
KunsangDarje, a railway maintenance worker in Nagchu, said that apart from maintaining the railway and highway, he also collects trash along the section with his colleagues. “The place I work is in a no-man’s land, and I think it’s very important to protect the animals there without affecting them with human activities, and we are also bound to take responsibility there,” he said.
24. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The ecological situation in Tibet has been totally improved.
B. Almost half Tibetan land has been ecologically supervised.
C. Many operational ecological reserves have been built.
D. More Tibetan protection inspectors have been employed.
25. Which of the following is one positive effect of Tibet’s ecological protection?
A. Larger protection areas. B. Numerous rare new species.
C. More days with quality air. D. Global capital investments.
26. By doing ecological protection work, __________.
A. protection inspectors can employ other people
B. protection inspectors are supplied with cars
C. Tibet’s rural residents can get annual training
D. Tibet’s rural residents can earn extra money
27. What does KunsangDarje mean by his words?
A. He asks his colleagues not to litter everywhere.
B. He attaches importance to raise animals there.
C. He keeps railway and highway in good condition.
D. He has a sense of duty to protect animals there.
C
No one ever said science education was easy. Certainly the concepts we teach, like conservation of momentum (动量守恒) or quantum mechanics (量子力学), can be hard to grasp. But what really makes our teaching complicated is that we’ re also trying to teach a deeper lesson at the same time — to help students understand the nature of science itself.
All too often, young people get the impression that science is about learning certain “laws” and then applying them to different situations. After all, that’s what we make them do on tests, to show that they’ve been doing the work. But that’s not it at all. Science is the process of building these concepts through the collection of experimental evidence.
And while I’m on it, let’s call these concepts what they really are — not laws, but models. Science is all about building and testing models. It’s difficult to help students understand that aspect of science when we just give them the models to begin with. Sure, in physics we often include historical or mathematical evidence to support big ideas, but that often isn’t enough.
Of course, we can’t start from scratch. If students had to build their own models from the ground up, it would be like trying to learn programming by inventing computers. As Isaac Newton is supposed to have said, we stand on the shoulders of giants. We must take models built by others and go from there.
What I’d like to suggest is that this actually provides a great way into the adventure of science and an opportunity to meet our objectives as educators. If you can create a situation that challenges students’ assumptions and produces conceptual conflict, that’s a great opportunity for learning.
28. What is the misunderstanding of teaching science?
A. It’s complicated. B.It focuses on the nature of science.
C. It’s very difficult. D. It lies in teaching and testing “laws”.
29. Which way to teach science is highly recommended by the author?
A. Encouraging students to start from scratch.
B. Providing students with right models to follow suit.
C. Guiding students to begin with models built by others.
D. Offering studentsproof to support importantconcepts.
30. The author cites Isaac Newton’s words to ___________.
A. justify the experiment B. praise the statement
C. show the achievement D. support the argument
31. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Science teaching B. Concept conflicting
C. Science learning D. Concept building
D
Each day, 10-year-old Seth asked his mom for more and more lunch money. Yet he seemed skinnier than ever and came home from school hungry. It turned out that Seth was handing his lunch money to fifth-grader, who was threatening to beat him up if he didn’t pay.
Most kids have been teased by a brother or a friend at some point. And it’s not usually harmful when done in a playful and friendly way, and both kids find it funny. But when teasing becomes hurtful, unkind, and constant, it crosses the line into bullying and needs to stop.
Bullying is intentional tormenting（折磨）in physical or psychological ways. It can range from hitting, name-calling, threats, and mocking (嘲弄) to blackmailing money and possessions. Some kids bully others by deliberately separating them and spreading rumors about them. Others use social media or electronic messaging to tease others or hurt their feelings.
It’s important to take bullying seriously and not just brush it off as something that kids have to tolerate. The effects can be serious and affect kids’ sense of safety and self-worth. In severe cases, bullying has contributed to tragedies, such as suicides and school shootings.
Kids bully for a variety of reasons. Sometimes they pick on kids because they need a victim—someone who seems emotionally or physically weaker, or just acts or appears different in some way—to feel more important, popular, or in control. Although some bullies are bigger or stronger than their victims, that’s not always the case.
Sometimes kids torment others because that’s the way they’ve been treated. They may think their behavior is normal because they come from families or other settings where everyone regularly gets angry and shouts or calls each other names. Some popular TV shows even seem to promote meanness—people are “voted off”, ignored, or ridiculed for their appearance or lack of talent.
Unless your child tells you about bullying—or has visible injuries—it can be difficult to figure out if it’s happening.
32. What is the author’s purpose of telling Seth’s story?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To raise public concern.
C. To analyse the cause. D. To display harmful effects.
33. The phrase “brush it off” in paragraph 4 means _____________.
A. removing bullying B. ignoring bullying
C. avoiding bullying D. stressing bullying
34. Why does bullying exist in schools?
A. Bullies consider school bullying interesting and rewarding.
B. Bullies want to dominate everyone physically and mentally.
C. Bullieshave taken the behavior from their original families.
D. Bullies are intentionally taught by some popular TV shows.
35. What is predicted to convey in the following session of the passage?
A.Signs of bullying. B. Love forkids.
C.Problems of bullying. D. Advice for kids.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you ever walk out of a room with an idea in your head, only to discover moments later that it’s gone? If so, don’t worry: it’s a very common experience. 36
The problem is often caused by “event boundaries”. 37 They make you believe that a particular mental task is over.
Tests have proved that we’re much more forgetful when we move from one location to another. 38 It’s because anything that seems like the end of a task—closing a study book, finishing a phone call, taking a cake out of the oven—can have the same effect. Within seconds, much information in your mind has disappeared.
39 First, stop telling your brain that its work is done. This can be as simple as leaving a book open instead of putting it back on the shelf. Second, create clues to carry with you across any unavoidable event boundary. Notice when these end-points are coming up, and spend a moment improving your memory.
If possible, say the key points out loud: the job you’re walking off to do in the next room, for example, or the plans you’ve just made on the phone. We know memory depends on imagery. 40
Every day you’re faced with event boundaries that may restrict your recall. But by avoiding them when you can, and disguising them when you can’t, you’ll find that much less of your learning gets lost.
A. But here’s how to fight back.
B. So picture the details you want to keep.
C. Many of us don’t know how to deal with it properly.
D. These are what your memory uses to stop remembering.
E. And scientists believe that we can explain and approach it.
F. But the same happens when we go from one activity to another, too.
G. And only in this way can we overcome event boundaries successfully.

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。
Jonah would never forget how he managed to overcome his shyness and make new friends all because of the timely advice he had followed a month ago. He remembered that day clearly.
The bell for the break resounded through the corridors at Glendale School. Instead of heading to the canteen like the other children did, Jonah fled to the library. He pushed open the door and headed for the nearest bookshelf. Other than the noise of the air－conditioner, the library was quiet and there was barely a soul in sight. Far in a corner, he spotted the librarian, who seemed too busy shelving some books to pay any attention to him. The windows to the library looked out to the canteen. Jonah could hear children laughing and chatting. He wished he was outside playing with some friends but he did not let this bother him.
Suddenly, Jonah heard a sound in the corner. He turned around and saw the librarian walking towards him. “Hi, I'm Mrs Lim，” she greeted him with a smile.
“Um...hi, I'm Jonah，” Jonah said, his face flushed red with embarrassment.
“Why are you reading here when you could be playing with your friends instead？”
“Uh...” Jonah looked around the library, avoiding her gaze. He did not want Mrs Lim to know the real reason he was in the library. She had the same look in her eyes as Jonah's father during the quiet car rides home from school. Jonah was helplessly tight－lipped whenever his father asked whom he had played or eaten with at school. From his silence, Jonah's father knew he was lonely. It was not that Jonah did not have any friends. They all just happened to live really far away. Jonah would stay up late at night chatting on the computer with his old friends from his previous school. Somehow, it made him feel close to them despite the distance. Transferred to this new school, Jonah found it difficult to make new friends. Everyone seemed to have different interests and their own circle of friends.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已给出。
“I know how you feel，”Mrs Lim said gently, as if she could read Jonah's mind. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In the hallway outside the library, a boy from Jonah's class was picking up something on the floor. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Dear Mr. Brown,
I'm writing to ask for a leave from September 7th to 13th. When playing football with my friends yesterday, I fell over and had my left foot injured. I was sent to the clinic for immediate treatment and was advised to stay in bed for a week. To support my request, a sick leave certificate by the doctor is enclosed here. As for the missed lessons during my absence, I'll catch up on them as soon as I come back.
I would feel much obliged if you could grant me my application.
Yours,
Li Hua

Sample:
“I know how you feel，” Mrs Lim said gently, as if she could read Jonah's mind. Jonah was surprised as he had not expected a total stranger to sense his loneliness. Mrs Lim added, “I can see it in your face. You look lonely.” Jonah sighed, not knowing what to do next. “Just say hello to someone today，” she encouraged, “I promise they'll respond. Once you've made the first move, it just gets easier.” Mrs Lim obviously did not understand how challenging that was going to be for him, Jonah thought. But still he appreciated the advice and thanked her before making his way out of the library.
In the hallway outside the library, a boy from Jonah's class was picking up something on the floor. Pens, pencils, and highlighters had dropped out of his pencil case. Fighting the urge to just walk away, Jonah leaned down and picked up a few pens. Then, he remembered what Mrs Lim had advised him. “Hello, I'm Jonah. Let me help you，” he offered. The boy looked up at him. “Thank you. My name is Ruben.” Victory at last, Jonah thought, feeling proud of himself.
