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。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
A
I sometimes feel left out with my friends at the party. What can I do?
—Susan
Alice: Speak to your best friend before you arrive and ask her to make sure you don’t get left out of the group. That way, she’ll know to include you in all the fun. Make the effort to speak to some other people at the party. You might even make a new friend or two.
Sometimes I think parties get boring and I want to go home!
—Jenny
Alice: Even a great party will drag if you’re not enjoying yourself. Making the effort to dance and have a chat with your friends will beat the boredom! You don’t have to stay to the very end of the party.
Our school is having a Christmas dance party but I’m really shy. Shall I go or not?
—Emma
Alice: Part of you would like to go to the party, so give it a try. Let good friends know how you feel and make sure you’ll have people to dance with when the evening comes. Practice some fun dances so you’ll feel comfortable on the dance floor.
Whenever I go to a party, my dad comes to pick me up at 8 pm. I always have to leave earlier than the rest of my friends and I get really angry with my dad.
—Anny
Alice: Talk with your dad and let him know how you feel. It feels hard to have different rules from your friends but don’t worry too much — your friends are probably picked up soon after you anyway.
21. Alice advises Susan to ________.
A. stay with her friends B. make fun of her friends
C. leave the party at once D. ask her friend for help
22. The underlined word “drag” is closest in meaning to “________”.
A. fail B. be boring C. improve D. be pleasant
23. Where can you probably find the text?
A. In a notice. B. In a guidebook.
C. In a famous novel. D. In a popular magazine.
B
Cold weather can be hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of
12
serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.
Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. If you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.
If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.
24. What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1?
A. They are often forgotten by their owners.
B. They build their own shelter.
C. They like to stay in warm places.
D. They are used to living outdoors.
25. Why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are out in cold weather?
A. To know when to bring them inside. B. To keep them from eating bad food.
C. To help them find shelter. D. To keep them company.
26. If pets are left on their own outdoors in cold weather, they may ________.
A. run short of clean water B. dig deep holes for fun
C. dirty the snow nearby D. get lost in the wild
27. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To solve a problem. B. To give some practical advice.
C. To tell an interesting story. D. To present a research result.
C
We often think that plane crashes are catastrophic (灾难的). But thankfully, that isn't the case. The National Transportation Safety Board found that the survival rate of crashes was 95. 7%. Sure, there are some accidents where everyone, or nearly everyone, died, but those are much rarer than you'd guess based on what you see in the news. We're going to offer some advice on what you can do to make it out of a plane crash alive.
You've only got 90 seconds to get out
If you’ve survived the crash landing, you only have 90 seconds to do so.
You see, the thing that kills most passengers in a plane crash isn't the actual impact (撞击). It's the fire that typically consumes the plane afterwards. Surveys show that most people think they actually have about 30 minutes to get out of a burning plane. The reality is that it takes, on average, just 90 seconds for a devastating (毁灭性的) fire to burn through the plane and consume everything and everyone in it.
Don't sleep
12
Don't drink before getting on a plane. You have to be fully present in the event of a crash. You don't need to be paranoid(多疑) during this time, just vigilantly (警惕地) relaxed.
Remember the Plus 3/Minus 8 rule
In the air world, Plus 3/Minus 8 refers to the first three minutes after takeoff and the last eight minutes before landing. According to fight crash investigators, close 80% of all plane crashes occur during this timeframe, and great importance should be attached to it. In between those times, the chances of a plane crash occurring drop dramatically.
Forget your carryon luggage, remember the kids
After the plane has crash landed and you're still alive, you only have 90 seconds to get to those exits as fast as you can. You need to be reminded to forget your carryon luggage! It will slow you down and block others' escape, and it may injure you or someone else. Your brain does stupid things in disasters. If your kids are in the plane, keep reminding yourself, "I have kids.”
28. The first paragraph suggests that ________.
A. the actual plane crashes are different from those in the news
B. all the passengers on board are killed in plane crashes
C. the general death rate of plane crashes is only 4.3%
D. all plane crashes are absolutely devastating disaster
29. Why do we get out of the aircraft quickly after the impact?
A. Because a terrible fire will soon destroy everything.
B. Because most passengers in a plane crash are terrified.
C. Because there are many rescue workers outside.
D. Because the passengers on board are too crowded.
30. Plus 3/Minus 8 rule is mentioned in the passage to ________.
A. warn us to pay more attention to this timeframe
B. show us to get ready for another danger
C. introduce us the result of flight crash investigations
D. urge all passengers to change their minds
31. According to the author, which of the following statements is a good move?
A. Drink a little before boarding and sleep all the time during your flight time.
B. Get to the exits as fast as you can in the last eight minutes before landing.
C. Remind you of keeping your child safe in the same plane firstly in disasters.
D. Carry your important baggage first and forget other things while escaping disasters.
D
The Chinese word “Shanzhai” means a small mountain village, but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes (假货), after “Shanzhai Cell-phones” produced by small workshops in southern China became popular in the mainland market over the past two years.
Besides “Shanzhai” electronic products, there are “Shanzhai” movies, “Shanzhai” stars and even a “Shanzhai” Spring Festival Gala (联欢晚会), a copy
12
of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year’s Eve.
“Shanzhai” has become a culture of its own, meaning anything that imitates something famous.
In Chongqing, “Shanzhai” version “Bird’s Nest” and “Water Cube” woven by farmers with bamboo attract wide attention from tourists. Both are copies of the famous Olympic buildings in Beijing.
A literature critic said that taking the “Shanzhai” Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the “Shanzhai” version appears timely to attract people. “Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation, ‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological needs of common people and could be a comfort to their minds,” he said.
To the mainstream (主流的) culture, the rise of “Shanzhai” culture is a challenge and a motivation (动力). People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is a perfect situation and it is for the public to choose.
32. The Chinese word “Shanzhai” may have started with ________.
A. Spring Festival Gala B. fake cell-phone
C. electronic products D. Olympic buildings
33. According to the passage, “Shanzhai” culture refers to ________.
A. the action that a person imitates (模仿) famous people
B. products with poor techniques and quality
C. those similar names to famous brands (品牌)
D. anything that imitates something famous
34. We can infer that the mainstream culture ________.
A. is held back by “Shanzhai” culture
B. is the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture
C. may develop faster because of the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture
D. will be replaced by “Shanzhai” culture
35. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. “Shanzhai” culture takes on life of its own
B. “Shanzhai” culture will definitely (注定地) disappear
C. “Shanzhai” culture — the mainstream culture
D. “Shanzhai” culture — the mountain village culture

Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrial countries. They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago. 36
The scientists say that human life has changed greatly. Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this has led to new kinds of sicknesses. 37 They are called “disease of civilization”. Many cancers and
12
diseases of blood system are examples of such diseases.
The scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none. 38 However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that today.
Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones. They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made little use of grains. 39 We eat six times more than our ancestors and we eat more sugar as well. We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.
40 But the scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fat, salty and sweet food.
A. In that case, they would live a much healthier life.
B. Modern people used to suffer from “diseases of civilization”.
C. Stone Age people lived a simple life without any meat.
D. Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.
E. People today probably don’t want to live like our ancestors.
F. But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.
G. These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.

Dear Mr. Green,
I am very happy to hear that you will give a lecture on Western Culture. Knowing that you’re asking for advice on my favorite topics related to it, I would like to share what I am interested in most.
As we all know, western culture is quite different, especially the history of religion. Therefore, I wonder if you could tell us something about it to enrich our knowledge. What’s more, how to follow western table manners is also a good topic because some of us are going to study abroad after graduation. It is the proper behaviors at meals that can help us to get along well with foreigners.
I am looking forward to your excellent lecture and I am willing to help if you want more information.
Yours,
Li Hua

You may like the fat, happy man who brings presents to kids on Christmas Eve. But do you know why he’s called Santa Claus and why he is dresses in red? The history of Santa Claus begins in the 4th century with a man called Saint Nicholas. Saint Nicholas lived in Myra, which is now called Turkey. He came from a rich family, but he felt sorry for poor people and decided to give them all his money. Nicholas, though, was shy and didn’t people to know he gave them money. So he climbed onto the roofs of houses on Christmas Eve and dropped bags of money down their chimneys. He wore red clothes when he did this. Nicholas died in 340 AD.
