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
Europe has all the big destinations: London, Paris, Rome, Berlin. Visitors flood there all the year round. If you are unwilling to join them, you can take a chance and walk the streets of some cities that are a little bit smaller, a little bit less famous, but still full of European grace and charm. Here are four European cities to visit that you probably haven't been to yet.
Besancon, France
This hidden French city has had a long reputation for being a well-kept secret. It can be at once sleepy with few tourists but abundant galleries, restaurants, and a wonderful Beaux Arts museum whose collection is second only to Louvre. The city is wound by the River Doubs and also touts（吹捧）its own UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Citadel, home to several small museums and a zoo.
Seville, Spain
For the tourist who is already tired of Barcelona and Madrid, Seville offers a different take（意见）on Spain. Located on the Southern coast, it keeps beautiful signs of the long period of Moorish rule, nowhere more than in the Alcázar palace building, just one of the city's UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Seville has over a dozen museums, tropical parkland, and probably the best tapas（餐前小吃）culture in all of Spain.
Ghent, Belgium
Ghent is a city that looks like it should be the setting for a fairy tale. All of the typical Belgium features abound here-waffles and beer. Every year from Saturday before July 21, Ghent hosts a ten-day festival. This music and theater festival draws almost 2 million visitors, as the city streets transform into performance spaces for performers, buskers（街头艺人）and musicians.
Palermo, Italy
Palermo is the capital city of Sicily, the southern island off the coast of mainland Italy. The city has an ancient history, and the various cultures that have a controlled the island through the years have all left their marks on it. You can see winding street markets, antique（古玩）fairs and open air nightclub here.
21. Where can visitors enjoy a colorful nightlife?
A. Besancon. B. Barcelona. C. Ghent. D. Palermo.
22. What can visitors do in Seville, Spain?
A. Visit antique fairs and clubs. B. Play with animals.
C. Explore over 20 museums. D. Hunt for Moorish influences.
21. Which country offers visitors a city with rich galleries?
A. France. B. Spain. C. Belgium. D. Italy.
22. What do the four European cities have in common?
A. They are all capital cities. B. They are less known but attractive.
C. They host various shows. D. They’re all UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
B
I go out of my way to say “thank you” to my partner frequently, and he’s the same way. We were both raised by parents who valued politeness, and more than that, I want to do all those little things that psychologists say help couples stay together. Expressing gratitude is one of those things, so a quick “thank” seems like an easy one.
But according to a recent study, we’re not at all typical. The study looked at over 1,000 recordings of casual conversations among families and close friends. In only about one out of 20 times were expressions of thanks observed. Phrases that meant “thanks” but weren’t a direct translation of the word were counted, including physical gestures of thanks.
The researchers looked at a wild variety of people from different places, representing eight languages: Polish, Russian, Italy, English, Murrinh-patha（an Aboriginal language）, Cha’palaa, Lao and Siwu.
The Brits thanked people close to them the most, about 14.5 percent of the time and close behind them were the Italians at 13.5 percent. The Murrinh-patha came next at 4.5 percent and following them were the Russians, the Polish, the Laotians and the Siwu speakers. The lowest? Well, the Cha’palaa speakers of Ecuador don't have a word for “thank you” at all.
As the linguists explained, “Expressing thanks, in some cultures, is more of a linguistic tradition than a true expression of feelings. In cultures where thanks are less often said, it’s because social cooperation is taken for granted, and “thank you” isn't really needed or necessary.”
The idea that you don't need to thank others because it’s assumed that you’re appreciative is beautiful. But it is a bit hard for me to accept. So I’ll keep saying “thanks” as frequently as I do. But as a frequent traveler, I’ll keep in mind to watch the local custom and follow suit.
23. What might be psychologists’ opinion about expression thanks?
A. It can show a person's values. B. It is passed down from parents.
C. It is a little and unnecessary thing. D. It can contribute to close relationship.
24. What is typical among family members according to the study?
A. They say thanks at any time. B. They seldom express thanks.
C. They often show thanks using gestures. D. They often use indirect translation of thanks.
25. Who never say “thank you”?
A. The Cha’palaa. B. The Polish. C. The Italians. D. The Russians.
26. What is mainly talked about in the text?
A. People thank close friends and family less.
B. Family members don't need to thank each other.
C. Close friends have different ways to express thanks.
D. Different cultures have different ways to express thanks.
C
According to a study published recently in the Journal Science, scientists have found a way to hack the plant's genes to help make it use sunlight more quickly, which could increase the amount of food produced around the world one day.
Plants use sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to make their own food. Scientists find plants use less than 1% of the energy available to them. But by hacking a plant’s genes, scientists are able to increase the amount of leaf growth on plants between 14% and 20%.
Specifically, scientists hacked the plant's protective system. Normally, this system is activated (激活) when a plant gets too much sunlight, said scientist Krishna Niyogi. When the plant senses the light, it gets rid of extra energy and creates more leaves. When the plant is in shade, the protective system is turned off.
Stephen Long is the lead author of the study. He compared a plant’s protective system to light-adjusting glasses. When we wear the glasses outside during the day, lenses(镜头)darken or lighten depending on how sunny it is. Plants do the same thing. But in plants the adjustment can take anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour. This makes it hard for plants to get the right amount of sunlight needed to create food.
The new study speeds up the process. By changing the plant's genes, the protective system turned on and off more quickly than normal. As a result, leaf growth in two plants increased by 20%, while leaf growth on a third plant increased by 14%.
"Now that we know it works, it won't be too difficult to do it with other crops," said Tang. "If you look at crops around the world," he said, "it would increase yield many million tons of food." It will be at least 15 years before scientists can adjust crops on a large scale, Long says. But he believes the study is a breakthrough.
29. The closest meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 2 is______.
A. designing B. changing C. covering D. feeding
30. What will happen to a plant when exposed to too much sunlight?
A. Slowing down its leaves growth. B. Folding up its leaves.
C. Turning on its protective system. D. Stopping taking in energy.
31. How does plant's protective system work according to Long?
A. By timing the exposure to daylight. B. By adjusting sunlight plants receive.
C. By being positioned under proper shades. D. By switching between strong and weak lights.
32.What seems to be Stephen Long's attitude towards the study
A. Cautious. B. Negative. C. Uncertain. D. Optimistic.
D
You’re at a party. Music is playing. Glasses are clinking. Dozens of conversations are driving up the decibel (分贝) level. Yet among all those distractions, you can tune your attention to just one voice from many. This ability is what researchers call the “cocktail-party effect”.
Scientists at the University of California in San Francisco have found where that sound-editing process occurs in the brain — in the auditory cortex (听觉皮层) just behind the ear, not in areas of higher thought. The auditory cortex boosts some sounds and turns down others so that when the signal reaches the higher brain, “it’s as if only one person was speaking alone,” says investigator Edward Chang.
These findings, published in the journal Nature last week, explain why people aren’t very good at multitasking — our brains are wired for “selective attention” and can focus on only one thing at a time. That inborn ability has helped humans survive in a world buzzing with visual and auditory stimulation (刺激). But we keep trying to push the limits with multitasking, sometimes with tragic (悲剧的) consequences. Drivers talking on cellphones, for example, are four times as likely to get into traffic accidents as those who aren’t.
Many of those accidents are due to “inattentional blindness”, in which people can, in effect, turn a blind eye to things they aren’t focusing on. The more attention a task demands, the less attention we can pay to other things in our field of vision. Images land on our retinas (视网膜) and are either boosted or played down in the visual cortex before being passed to the brain, just as the auditory cortex filters sounds, as shown in the Nature study last week. “It’s a push-pull relationship — the more we focus on one thing, the less we can focus on others,” says Diane M. Beck, an associate professor of psychology at the University of Illinois.
Studies over the past decade at the University of Utah show that drivers talking on hands-free cellphones are just as influenced as those on hands-held phones because it is the conversation, not the device, that is distracting their attention. Those talking on any kind of cellphone react more slowly and miss more traffic signals than other motorists.
Some people can train themselves to pay extra attention to things that are important — like police officers learn to scan crowds for faces and conductors can listen for individual instruments within the orchestra as a whole. Many more think they can effectively multitask, but are actually shifting their attention rapidly between two things and not getting the full effect of either, experts say.
33. What have scientists in University of California found about “the cocktail-party effect”?
A. Usually there is only one person who is speaking alone.
B. All kinds of annoying sounds drive up the decibel level.
C. Sounds are sorted out before reaching the higher brain.
D. The higher brain processes sounds and images selectively.
34. What do we learn from the passage?
A. We are biologically incapable of multitasking.
B. We survive distractions in life by multitasking.
C. We cannot multitask without extra attention.
D. We benefit from pushing the limit with multitasking.
35. Which of the following is an example of “inattentional blindness”?
A. A careless driver lost his eyesight after a car accident.
B. Police scanned the crowds and located the criminal.
C. A manager talked on a hands-free phone with his client.
D. A pedestrian had a car accident because of phubbing (低头).

Whether you're a child, teenager, young adult or are middle-aged, respect your parents is an important value. Your parents are the people who raised you, devoting time, energy and money to your development. 36 No matter your age, there are 5 ways to show respect.
● Respect their belongings.
One important way to show respect is to show regard for the things important to your parents. For younger children, this may mean not touching jewelry or other valuable things. For grown children, respect may mean returning a borrowed tool in good condition and on time. Lack of respect for a parent's belongings is a violation of personal boundaries. 37 And never borrow things without asking first.

Call if you're going to be late because parents worry about children, no matter their age.
● __39
Remembering birthdays, anniversaries and other special days is a sign that you honor your parents. Make plans to take them to lunch or dinner or bake a cake or cookies. Most parents don't expect expensive gifts, but a handmade gift is always appreciated .A phone call from a grown child who lives too far for a visit is a welcome sign of respect.
●Be kind.
Kind words and affection are simple ways to show respect. Tell your parents you love them. Listen and allow your parents to speak without interruption. Show a sincere interest in what your parents have to say. Be patient with your parents and don't rush them. Never talk back or be
rude or disrespectful. Acknowledge your parents' achievements. 40__
A. Be a good listener.

C. Lateness indicates a lack of respect.
D. Treat your parents the way you would like to be treated.
E. And they love you unconditionally throughout your life.
