第二部分 阅读理解 （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 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
From Antigua to Zanzibar, these spots promise an incredible trip for 2019.
Antigua, Guatemala
“Antigua is worth every penny, but that doesn’t mean you’ll have to empty your
wallet,” says Hudson. There are plenty of budget-conscious activities. It won’t
cost you a coin to visit Santo Domingo del Cerro, an outdoor sculpture park. Wanting something sweet? Head to ChocoMuseo. Admission is free and so are the samples!
Odessa, Ukraine
Odessa is having a bit of a tourism boom nationwide-not that we’re surprised,
given its sandy beaches and pastel-colored buildings-but it’s still fairly under
the order for international audiences. You can also count on this port city for
affordable fun. Tickets to the Odessa Opera House start at a mere $ 2!
Bogotá, Colombia
“Travelers on budget will find Colombia’s vast capital far more of a bargain
and every bit as fascinating,” says Hudson. “It’s free to visit Museo de Oro and
on Sundays many of the big roads are closed to accommodate food carts, street
entertainers, and pedestrians.”
Zanzibar
Zanzibar attracts vacationers with its white sand beaches, greenish-blue tides,
colorful coral reefs, and oceanfront seaside. Of course, wandering in historic Stone
Town is pretty appealing too. Either way, you needn’t spend a penny in this amazing
place. It’s also worth noting that Jozani Forest is the only place in the world you
can see endangered red colobus monkeys.
21. Which of the following requires admission fee?
A. ChocoMuseo. B. Odessa Opera House.
C. Museo de Oro. D. Stone Town.
22. Where can enjoy seaside scenery and visit historical sites?
A. Antigua, Guatemala B. Odessa, Ukraine
C. Bogotá, Colombia D. Zanzibar
23. What do the four destinations have in common?
A. They are coastal cities.
B. They welcome street entertainers.
C. They are inexpensive to visit.
D. They will make your wallet empty.
B“O gentle sleep!\Nature’s soft nurse, how have I frightened thee\That thou no
more wilt weigh my eyelids down.”Henry IV, as portrayed by Shakespeare, would have
sympathized with people who struggle with insomnia (失眠). Now a major publisher has
come up with a novel idea.
In a project to be launched this week, Penguin Random House has cooperated with
the Sleep Council and the Children’s Sleep Charity in creating collections of “Sleep
Tales” for adults and children. Combining “cutting-edge technology and the ancient
art of storytelling to help solve an age-old problem”, these audiobooks are part
soundscape, part descriptive narrative, with softly spoken voices to calm anxieties
and take listeners to the land of nod.
Each story lasts about 15 minutes, enabling listeners to set their sleep timer.
The stories draw on the Sleep Council’s research into sounds that help people wind
down, such as waves lapping on a shore, soft rainfall and birdsong.
Richard Lennon, publisher at Penguin Audio, told the Guardian the project was
inspired partly by the realization that increasing numbers of people were listening
to audio books “as they’re going to sleep or as part of their bedtime routine”.
He said both adults and children respond to something comforting and familiar as they
are nodding off.
Asked whether a boring story could have the same effect, he said the stories needed
to be “engaging enough not to put you off”: “This is about creating the right
environment and headspace for you … to go to sleep. Strangely, if you’re bored,
it doesn’t have that effect.” Audience research had been very positive, Lennon said.
One listener reported: “The story made my mind stop racing.”
24. Why is the poem mentioned at the beginning of the passage?
A. To introduce the works of Shakespeare.
B. To appreciate the rhythm of the poem.
C. To lead to the topic of the passage.
D. To offer an example of people with insomnia.
25. What’s the character of the audio books of “Sleep Tales”?A. Their target readers are children.
B. Every story is long and interesting.
C. They are read vividly in different tones.
D. They can make listeners sleepy.
26. What can we learn from Richard Lennon’s words?
A. Not many people prefer listening to audio books before sleep.
B. A boring story is more likely to make people sleepy.
C. The environment is very important for reading stories.
D. The audio books prove effective in helping people sleep in the research.
27. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Releasing audio books to send listeners to sleep
B. The new trend of people’s reading habit
C. Audio books are becoming more and more popular
D. Ways to help people sleep easily
C
Just a year ago, the colors were bright under the waves. Now it’s gray — the
Maldivian reef is dead. The coral is killed by the pressure of rising temperatures.
Coral reefs are areas underwater where small creatures live. The coral is hard
material formed on the bottom of the sea by the skeletons of those creatures. But
the world has lost about half its coral reefs in the last 30 years. Scientists are
working to prevent their destruction. Due to global warming, over 90 percent of corals
are expected to die by 2050. “To lose coral reefs is to fundamentally undermine the
health of a very large proportion of the human race,” said Ruth Gates, director of
the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology.
Why are coral reefs important? Coral reefs support a fourth of all marine species,
as well as half a billion people worldwide. They serve as barriers to protect
coastlines from the storms. They provide billions of dollars from tourism, fishing
and other trade. They are also used in medical research for cures for diseases. “Everyone should be concerned,” said biologist Ove Guldberg at Australia’s
University of Queensland. “This is not just some distant dive destination. This is
the basic structure of the ecosystem we depend on.”
The ocean is getting warmer. A rising temperature of just one to two degree Celsius
can force coral to expel the algae (驱逐海藻) that live there. This leaves their white
skeletons uncovered. It is a process called “bleaching”. Sixteen percent of the
world’s corals died of bleaching in 1998. The problem has become much worse in recent
years.
“We’ve lost 50 percent of the reefs, but that means we still have 50 percent
left,” said Ruth Gates, who is working in Hawaii to breed corals that can better
withstand increasing temperatures. She is also trying to “train” corals to survive
rising temperatures. Gates says it is time to start “thinking outside the box”—
find creative ways to help them.
28. What does the underlined word “undermine” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Regain B. Weaken C. Promote D. Develop
29. What can we learn from Ove Guldberg’ words?
A. People won’t find a dive destination in the future.
B. The effort to save corals will turn out to be fruitless.
C. The bright sea has lost its charm because of those dead corals.
D. The destruction of coral reefs will affect the earth ecosystem.
30. What’s the fourth paragraph mainly about?
A. The harm of algae. B. The importance of coral reefs.
C. The process of “bleaching”. D. The change of ocean temperature.
31. What is Ruth Gates’ attitude towards the protection of corals？
A. Worried B. Positive C. Casual D. Curious
D
Joseph Goldberger was a doctor for the United States Public Health Service and
he was an advocate for scientific and social recognition of the links between poverty and disease. In 1914, Goldberger was asked by US Surgeon General Rupert Blue to study
a skin disease that was killing thousands of people in the South. The disease was
pellagra (糙皮病)．
Goldberger traveled to the state of Mississippi where many people suffered from
pellagra. He studied the victims and their families. Most of the people lived a hard
life. The doctor came to believe that the disease didn't pass on from one to another,
but was instead related to food. He received permission from the state governor to
test this idea at a prison. Prisoners were offered pardons if they took part. One
group of prisoners received their usual foods, mostly corn products. A second group
ate meat, fresh vegetables and drank milk. Members of the first group developed
pellagra. The second group did not.
But some medical researchers refused to accept Goldberger’s idea. For the South,
pellagra was more than simply a medical problem. There were other things, including
Southern pride.
So Goldberger had himself injected ( 注 射 ) with blood from a person with
pellagra. He also took liquid from the nose and throat of a pellagra patient and put
them into his own nose and throat. He even swallowed pills that contained skin from
pellagra patients. An assistant also took part in the experiments. So did
Goldberger’s wife. None of them got sick.
Joseph Goldberger died of cancer in 1929. He was fiftyfive years old. Several
years later, researchers discovered the exact cause of pellagra: a lack of vitamin
B3 known as niacin.
32. Who were likely to get pellagra according to Goldberger?
A. People in the south of America.
B. People having a poor diet.
C. People in prison.
D. People touching pellagra patients.
33. What did Goldberger want to prove by the experiments mentioned in Paragraph 4?
A. Pellagra wasn’t so terrible.
B. Pellagra could be cured.
C. Pellagra didn’t spread.
D. Pellagra wasn’t a medical problem.
34. Why did some medical researchers refuse to accept Goldberger’s idea? A. Goldberger’s idea sounds ridiculous.
B. They have done their own research.
C. The result hurt their pride.
D. Goldberger didn’t do enough research.
35. Which words can be used to describe Goldberger?
A. Selfless and friendly. B. Devoted and determined.
C. Patient and expert. D. Stubborn and enthusiastic.
第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）
根据短文内容，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。
You have the grades, the test scores, and the English proficiency (水平) to get
into college in the United States. 36
In the US, scores alone can’t guarantee a place at a college. Indeed, it’s normal
for admissions (招生) officers to turn away students who have high scores. This is
where the essay comes in. 37
This is your opportunity to show the admissions committee the person behind those
numbers– the real you. 38 No matter what your topic is, the essay should not
be a description of events. It should say something you’ve learned about life.
Here is what Harvard’s Dean of Admissions is looking for in an essay: how well
you can think; whether you have a questioning nature; whether you are open to ideas;
whether you have a unique way to express your ideas. No matter how great your English
is, your ideas and the ability to connect them to events will distinguish you among
the other applicants.
39
Some students use cliches (陈词滥调) like “expanding my horizons (眼界)”, which
are so overused. Colleges would think you don’t care enough to make original phrases.
The worst is plagiarizing (抄袭). It’s the easiest way to get rejected. Only lazy
students copy and paste other’s works such as some internet resources called
“successful essays”. Finally, beware of empty words. 40 If a college asks
“Why this college?”, don’t reply weightless words like “for football games on campus”.
A. And many experts agree with this.
B. It shows schools that you can communicate through writing.
C. What are some of the most common mistakes students make?
D. Now you need the essay.
E. When students don’t know what to say, they often make it up with meaningless things.
F. Sometimes, essay makes no difference.
G. You can show your character, values, beliefs and aspirations (抱负).

最佳选项。
Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book-lover or
merely go there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just
to find 41 from a sudden shower.
Whatever the 42 , you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings.
The desire to 43 a book with an attractive cover is irresistible but you might
end up with a rather 44 book. A book-lover 45 adopts this method of selection.
All too often you soon become 46 in some book or other, and usually it is too
47 when you realize you have spent far too much time there and must 48 to keep
some forgotten appointment — without buying a book, of course.
This opportunity to escape the reality of everyday life is, I think, the main
49 of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is 50 to do this. A music
shop is very much like a bookshop. You can wander round such places to your heart’s
content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will 51 you with the unavoidable
greeting: “Can I help you, sir?” You needn’t buy anything you don’t want. In a
bookshop an assistant should remain in the 52 until you have finished browsing.
Then, and only then, are his services 53 . Of course, you may want to find out
where a particular section is, but when he has 54 you there, the assistant should retire considerately and look as if he is not interested in 55 a single book.
41. A. direction B. shelter C. way D. comfort
42. A. weather B. place C. reason D. time
43. A. pick up B. pass on C. write D. buy
44. A. special B. creative C. surprising D. dull
45. A. often B. nearly C. rarely D. easily
46. A. absorbed B. bored C. tired D. forgotten
47. A. easy B. late C. lucky D. happy
48. A. take away B. rush off C. put off D. make up
49. A. function B. value C. attraction D. purpose
50. A. important B. popular C. friendly D. possible
51. A. approach B. help C. warn D. support
52. A. office B. distance C. way D. shop
53. A. obvious B. necessary C. refused D. realized
54. A. gave B. made C. put D. led
55. A. finding B. showing C. reading D. selling
第二节：（共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Imagine you are thinking about attending a college, and you find a school you
would like
56 (attend) . So you go to the school’s website to find information about
admission process.
Time goes by and you still do not have the answers. You almost feel like giving
up. But then 57 message appears on your computer. It 58 (say) something like:
"How can I help?” Writing back to the website, you try to explain 59 (you)
problem. Then, almost immediately, the person with whom you are in contact provides
the information you are seeking.
In fact, you are not 60 (actual) communicating with a school official. You
are in contact with a computer program, or chatbot.This might sound strange. but chances are this would not be the first time you
have communicated with a computer program without knowing 61 . In recent years,
c h a t b o t s
62 (become) a common tool for banks and large companies around the world.
Having human beings available to answer people's questions can be costly,
requiring many workers. And in most 63 (case), employees can only work a set
n u m b e r o f h o u r s i n a d a y ,
64 (increase) the amount of time customers wait for a response. So not just
c o m p a n i e s ,
65 a growing number of colleges and universities have also begun using chatbot
technology.

David and Roy decided to go for a bicycle ride with three other students: Robert,
Helen and Betty. But Robert's father couldn't afford to buy a bike for him. So they
were going to borrow one for him.
The students had planned to meet at 8 o'clock. But Robert, Helen and Betty were
half an hour late, for they had to come a long way since they found the bridge over the stream had been washed away.
When they told the bad news to David and Roy, David said nothing and kept silent
for a moment. After a while, an idea came into his mind. “Do you think we could rebuild
it?”
All of them agreed and started to consider this seriously. They decided to rebuild
the bridge before they went for the bicycle ride. Betty said she could ask her brother
to make a plan for them.
The biggest problem was to get enough wood. The next day they visited nearly every
house in the village. Mr. Robinson agreed to supply the wood so long as they did the
work. Several people promised to give money if they could build a new bridge because
it was a short cut for them.
The students worked for nearly a week under Mr. Robinson's guidance. At the end
o f a
week of hard work, the bridge was completed. They all agreed to ask Mr. Robinson to
officially open the bridge. “He has helped us most,” David said.
“And tomorrow morning we can go around to all the houses,” added Roy, “and
tell the people that the bridge will be officially opened at six o’clock. Then we
can remind them about their promises about money,” Roy added.
“But we don’t really want that, do we?” said Robert.
“Yes,” said Helen. “We need it and I think we should collect it.” She glanced
quickly at the others, who nodded.
The next day, the students visited all the houses again. They were surprised when
they saw how pleased the people were with them. By two o’clock they had collected
over a hundred dollars. By five o’clock, unknown to Robert, they had spent it.

M: Well, I usually wake up at 8 o’clock. Then I have a shower and have breakfast.
I leave home at 8:45 and I walk to school with my friends. School starts at 9 o’clock
and if we’re late, the teacher gets angry.
W: Really? Do you have lunch at school?
M: Yes, I do. We have lunch at 1:20.
W: What do you do after school?
M: ⑦School finishes at 3:45 and I get home at 4 o’clock. I usually have a snack
like a piece of bread or some biscuits and then I do my homework. We have dinner when
my parents get home and then at 8 o’clock we all watch TV together.
W: What time do you go to bed?
M: My sister goes to bed at 9 o’clock and I go to bed at 9:30.

W: Mark, do you like reading news on the Internet?
M: Not really. I used to like watching news on TV. ⑧But now I usually read USA Today
and The New York Times to learn about important events around the world.
W: Why don’t you read news online? Don’t you think it’s more convenient?
M: Well, there are just too many untrue news stories on the Internet. So do you like reading online news stories?
W: Yes. But I just use the major news sites. I dislike untrue news stories, too. ⑨I
do think reporters have the biggest responsibility to reduce made-up stories.
M: Really? Don’t you think news reporting has its limits in its ability to prevent
the spread of fake news?
W: So what’s your opinion?
M: I think technology companies such as Facebook and Google and the government should
be responsible.

M: Hello, is Susan there?
W: Yes, this is Susan.
M: This is Robbie. It’s about the shopping trip tomorrow. We’re going at half past
nine instead of a quarter to nine.
W: OK. I’ve got that.
M: And would you mind my sister and her friend going with us? My sister’s going to
drive us there in her car. She’ll bring us back too.
W: Of course not! Anything else?
M: Yes. You need to bring your bathing suit because there’s a really good pool next
to the shopping center. And could you bring some food? Because we won’t have time
to have lunch in a restaurant. But we can get a drink while we’re walking around
the shopping center.
W: No problem. See you.
M: See you tomorrow.

W: Hey, George! Where are you heading?
M: Hey, it’s you, Mary. I just came back from an exhibition.
W: A what?
M: An exhibition. To be exact, a fine art exhibition.
W: Really? Is it good?
M: Yeah, pretty good, I should say. You know, I don’t have any artistic ability, but I can appreciate the stuff there. There are portraits（肖像）, oil paintings and
watercolors. It’s really amazing. Sometimes they can fool your eyes — you have to
look really closely to see that’s not a photo or something real. It’s a great
exhibition.
W: What paintings do you like best?
M: I would have to say the oil paintings. They’re just so colorful and alive.
W: Yeah, that’s one thing that I like about oil paintings. But I can’t stand the
traditional style. I find it so boring.
M: Yeah, I’m a little tired of that style, too. I’m crazy about art, and I wish
that I were able to paint as well as these artists. You should go and have a look
at this exhibition if you can afford a day. It’s really great.
W: Well, I was just thinking about what to do for the weekend. Now you’ve given me
a good idea. I’m really looking forward to it!
M: Trust me, it’s worthwhile and the ticket is not expensive.
W: OK. I’ve got to go and get the tickets now. See you.
