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。
A
On a cool November day many years ago, I noticed a big black dog at our farm. I was very angry at his frequent turning up.
I went to my father and told him how the dog had destroyed part of our crop. “It’s all your
2doing,” I said. “Why did you offer milk to him a few days ago? He wants us to adopt him now. ”“Why not?” asked my father. “We already have Mike. He won’t allow another dog to enter this place.” A few days later, however, poor Mike was hit by a bus and died. “Had I listened to you,” my father said, “we would have been without a dog now!”
Kalu didn’t take long toWe had often heard about thieves in the area. One night at about 1:00 am, we were woken up by Kalu’s angry bark. “Could it be thieves?” my father whispered. My father shouted through a window: “Who’s there?” No reply. Kalu’s growls grew angrier. Suddenly we heard a man cry out: “Save me from this beast!”
Armed with a stick, we went outside and saw that Kalu had pinned the man down on the ground. The man begged: “Save me, sir!” Most of his clothing had been torn and his legs and hands were bloody. We managed to drag Kalu away. “Don’t come here again,” my father ordered. The man disappeared into the darkness. As Kalu continued barking after the man, I saw my mother looking fondly at him through the window. Kalu got more popular in the family.
Kalu lived with us faithfully for over seven years. When he went missing for three days and was found dead because of eating something poisonous, we were shocked.
Our farm seemed desolate without Kalu. Over the years, we took in several more dogs, but none could match Kalu’s understanding and high spirits. The mean-looking stray (流浪狗) I didn’t want taught me to never judge anyone by his looks, whether a man or his best friend.
21. Many years ago, the author ______.
A. blamed his father for adopting Kalu
B. was annoyed by Kalu’s constant appearance
C. thought Mike would welcome Kalu willingly
D. discussed with his father how to drive away Kalu
22. We can infer from the text that ______.
A. Kalu showed off his ability of catching mice to prove himself
B. Kalu’s barking at night often disturbed the neighborhood
C. Kalu couldn’t stop the thief without the author’s father’s help
D. Kalu came to win the author’s family’s heart with his loyalty
23. The underlined word “desolate” in the last paragraph probably means “______”.
A. empty B. bare C. unusual D. peaceful
24. According to the last paragraph, what did the author learn from his experience?
A. First impressions are never to be relied on.
B. “Don’t judge a book by its cover” applies to both humans and dogs.
C. Ordinary as a person or a dog may look, we should treat them as extraordinary.
D. Your feelings toward somebody or something can change after you are helped out.
B
You may laugh it off if someone told you that extreme weather disasters were actually a child’s tricks. But El Nino, meaning “little boy” in Spanish, could be about to cause trouble.
A recent statement from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration warned of
3a strong El Nino event that may be similar to the strongest in modern times. Scientists believe that evidence shows a more than 90 percent chance that it is coming – and it’s going to be big. “If this lives up to its potential, this thing can bring a lot of floods, mudslides (泥石流), and trouble,” said Bill Patzert, a NASA scientist.
El Nino is a climate event occurring in the Pacific Ocean. The wind usually blows strongly from east to west due to the rotation (旋转) of the Earth. This causes water to pile up in the Western Pacific and pulls up colder water from the bottom in the eastern part. However, in El Nino years, the winds pushing the water get weaker and cause the warmer water to shift back toward the east. This warms the ocean as it travels before finally reaching the shores of North and South America. In an El Nino event, the waters of the eastern Pacific can be up to 4 degrees Celsius warmer than usual.
Most El Ninos last from 9 to 12 months and their effects are felt around December. They don’t happen every year though, usually between every two to seven years.
Last seen in 1997-98, El Nino caused severe droughts in Australia, the Philippines and Indonesia, as well as deadly floods in Peru and Ecuador. The world also heats up during an ElNino – 1998 became the warmest year on record at the time. If the current trend continues, 2015 is almost certainly to become the hottest year yet again.
A strong El Nino also affects hurricane seasons around the planet. The warmer the Eastern Pacific is, the more hurricanes it gets. The Western Pacific, on the other hand, tends to see more and stronger typhoons.
The weather isn’t the only thing that’s affected. Warmer surface waters in the Eastern Pacific make the cold-water fish swim away and damage the fishing industry in much of Latin America.25. What is the text mainly about?
A. El Nino and its harmful effects.
B. Extreme weather disasters ever.
C. The hottest years ever in history.
D. The strongest El Nino in history.
26. Which of the following statements is TRUE about El Nino?
A. It results from hurricanes or typhoons in the oceans.
B. It happens every two years and last about half a year.
C. It is a weather phenomenon occurring in the Atlantic.
D. It can cause extreme weather, such as floods and droughts.
27. During an El Nino year, ______.
A. the wind blows so strongly that it causes the water to pile up
B. the fishing industry in much of Latin America is likely to suffer
C. the more typhoons it experiences, the warmer the Western Pacific is
D. the surface water in the Eastern Pacific usually gets colder than ever
28. El Nino in fact results from ________.
A. a little Spanish child’s trick B. the natural rotating of the Earth
C. an American expert’s prediction D. the weaker winds in the Pacific
C
For most people today, their GPS (Global Positioning System) has become a life line, giving directions to the nearest bathroom or restaurant. But the price we pay for the convenience could be our sense of direction.
“I do think GPS devices cause our navigational(导航) skills to atrophy，” said Nora Newcombe, a US psychologist who studies how the human brain navigates. “The problem is that you don’t see an overview of the area and where you are in relation to other things.”
To understand the risk, you first need to understand how our brain keeps us from getting lost. Through experiments, researchers have found that our navigational strategies usually fall into two groups.
The first involves a spatial (空间的) map inside your brain. As you explore an area, you think about how the streets fit together and the best way to get between different locations. Eventually, the map lets you navigate between any two pointsAccording to the research, people who are bad at navigation have trouble with the first strategy–creating spatial maps. What’s more, further studies have shown that people’s ability to create spatial maps is decided by how often we use the skill. That helps explain what happens when people trust themselves with GPS devices. According to a research, people depending on GPS show more activity in the part of the brain that is good at following directions – but less activity in the part which creates the spatial maps.
It turns out that our sense of direction isn’t the only thing we could lose. One thing that could go is our connection to the environment we travel through. Researchers have found that when people rely on GPS while driving, their memory of their trip is of a route on a screen, rather than the landscape they traveled through.
29. The underlined word “atrophy” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______.
A. become stronger B. become weaker
C. become more useful D. become less important
30. People having a poor sense of direction _______.
A. rely more on the first strategy than the second for direction
B. usually find the second strategy more reliable and flexible
C. tend to have problems creating spatial maps in their mind
D. are likey to become wiser by using the GPS navigation
31. How could the frequent use of GPS affect people according to the article?
A. It might ruin their ability to navigate.
B. It is to produce more activity in their brain.
C. It enables them to enjoy better scenery along.
D. It makes them become less independent.
32. What can be inferred about the writer’s attitude towards using GPS?
A. He encourages us not to use it.
B. He thinks highly of this technology.
C. He doesn’t care how often it’s used.
D. He discourages us from overusing it.
D
Dear Daughter,
We have not seen you for a while now, so I thought we might check in. Did you fall off the edge of the Earth? Your mother worries, you know, and I am just curious. Well, I am more than
5curious. I feel abandoned.
Apparently you’ve abandon us for your career. I can understand that, because you’ve always had a wonderful work ethic. Look, obviously your long absence has confused us. As we go about our daily routines, your mother and I are distracted – both by your absence and our pride in your career. The other day, I entered my work password into the microwave, then stood there cursing it for not working.
Listen, a lot has happened since you’ve been away. Abraham Lincoln was shot. We had two more children – a princess, now 23; a boy, now 12. Yesterday I bought a very clean 2001 Camaro car from an older woman. Your mother is not happy about this. She says it is the kind of muscle car driven by ex-criminals when they examine your house at 2 am. In response, I tell her it was the car of my dreams when I was 18.
So that’s where your long absence has left us. Your long absence is not so bad, though we miss your roaring laughter ... the way your cheeks flush when you eat Thai food. How you always march too hard into the house, like a Scotsman stepping on snakes.
Each evening, your mother now waits by the window the way she did when you used to step off the bus in first grade. Bet that drove you crazy even then, her running out on the porch like you’d just returned from a month-long journey to the moon.
Look, parents are not easy people. But should the urge ever hit you, feel free to stop by sometime. Our house is your house. Our hearts are yours too. And your mother is still waiting by the window .
Love,
Dad
33. The author entered the wrong password into the microwave because ______.
A. kinds of passwords made him confused
B. he was totally obsessed with his work
C. he was affected by his daughter’s long absence
D. he had forgotten how to use the microwave
34. The author describes his and his wife’s current situation by ______.
A. comparing the past and present
B. talking about history and his dream
C. listing changes they have made to their routines
D. detailing strange things they have started doing
35. From the article, we can conclude that the author is ________.
A. humorous B. inspiring C. serious D. patient

Dear Sir or Madam,
Knowing that our library is going to buy more books, I’d like to give some advices.
What we need most are popular science books, that usually explain basic principles of the nature in a simple and interesting way. They help us understand science subjects better and arousing our curiosity about scientific discoveries.
In addition to reading for knowledge, we read for fun and inspiration. That is how I recommend another category of books: literary books. These classic works, writing by great masters , present noble thoughts through fascinating stories and beautifully language. It not only provide us joy and excitement, but also encourage us to think critically.
I would appreciate this if you could consider my recommendation.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

My Life in the Senior Year
As a senior three student, my life is extremely full and occupied. With a big dream to fulfill, I enjoy my school life, working diligently and passionately.
However, I can’t deny that I am burdened with so much that I feel exhausted sometimes both physically and mentally. Too much homework takes away our time for enough exercise and the development of personal hobbies. My parents also push me a lot, which contributes to some unpleasant conflicts or misunderstanding between us.
How I wish our society would pay more attention to our health and all-round development! Leaving us less but more efficient homework will help make our study life in senior three more colorful!

Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater, employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups. It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.
The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-be to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.
Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also a reason. “This used to be the center of town,” he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”
Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.
The theater audience said good-by as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.
24. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?
A. It made room for new equipment.
B. It signaled the closedown of the theater.
C. It was done with the help of the audience.
D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.
25. Why was The Last Picture Show put on?
A. It was an all-time classic. B. It was about the history of the town.
C. The audience requested it. D. The theater owner found it suitable.
26. What will probably happen to the building?
A. It will be repaired. B. It will be turned into a museum.
C. It will be knocked down. D. It will be sold to the city government.
27. What can we infer about the audience?

After years of heated debate, gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they were gradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populations — major food sources (来源) for the wolf – grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation (植被), which reduced plant diversity in the park. In the absence of wolves, coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’ s red foxes, and completely drove away the park’ s beavers.
As early as 1966,biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolvers. The and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in y,the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at ,deer,and coyote populations are down,while beavers and red fores have made a Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.

The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.
Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people, leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝) and inactive.
Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.
These include custom-made navigation(导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains: “For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.”
“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”
Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains, “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.
“For example, most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.
“We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”
is the purpose of the Drivel AB?
explore newmeans of transport.
design new types of cars.
find out older driver`s problems.
teach people traffic rules.
is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?
