第二部分 阅读理解(共两节;满分 35 分)
第一节 (共 10 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 25 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
I was in the garden with Augie, my grandson, watching the bees. “How do
they make honey?” Augie asked. “Actually, Augie, I don’t know,” I replied. “But,
Grandma, you have your phone,” he said. For Augie, holding a smartphone almost
means knowing everything.
During my childhood I was crazy about books. Over time, reading hijacked
my brain, as large areas once processing the real world adapted to processing the
printed word. As far as I can tell, this early immersion (沉浸) didn’t prevent my
development.
Many parents worry that “screen time” will damage children’s development,
but recent research suggests that most of the common fears about children and
screens are unfounded. There is one exception: looking at screens before bed
really disturbs sleep, in people of all ages. The American Academy of Pediatrics
(AAP) used to recommend strict restrictions on screen exposure. Last year, the
organization examined the relevant science more thoroughly and changed its
recommendations. The new guidelines stress that what matters is what children
watch and with whom.
New tools have always led to panic guesses. The novel, the telephone, and the
television were all declared to be the End of Civilization, particularly in the hands
of the young. Part of the reason may be that adult brains require a lot of focus and
effort to learn something new, while children’s brains are designed to master new
environments naturally. New technologies always seem disturbing to the adults
attempting to master them, while attractive to those children like Augie.
When Augie’s father got home, Augie rushed to meet him and said in
excitement. “Daddy, Daddy, look,” he said, reaching for my phone. “Do you know
how bees make honey? I’ll show you…”
21. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “hijacked” in
Paragraph 2?
A. occupied. B. damaged. C. improved. D. relaxed.22. What do the new guidelines of AAP focus on about “screen time”?
A. The harm to children. B. The content and context.
C. Children’s sleep. D. People’s fears.
23. What might be the author’s attitude towards “screen time”?
A. Opposed. B. Doubtful. C. Disappointed. D. Favorable.
B
Today companies have branches around the world. More than 11% of the US
employers and employees work online either full-time or part-time, and that number
is continuing growing. It is believed that it is a waste of time and money to fly around
the world for face-to-face meetings. An effective solution to this problem is to use
Web meetings.
A large group of presentations, training classes and meetings are done online
without losing the face-to-face experience. Web meetings are online meetings where
an organizer invites attendees to listen to or watch an online presentation by
presenters. Besides, Web meetings can be recorded for later use in presentations or
training projects or downloaded for on-demand playback.
Presenters can take real-time surveys to study how to hold a successful meeting.
Some Web meeting software programs can monitor the users’ desktop behavior to see
if they become distracted from the presentation and begin working on other
documents. If so, the program can tell presenters when the listeners lose their
attention, and how long the distraction lasts. In this way, the presenters will know
which parts of their meetings need improving.
Web meetings can work well because they’re hosted on a server ( 服 务 器 ).
Images from the presenter’s desktop are taken, uploaded to a server and then
downloaded by people who have access to the server. Web meetings require a
powerful server to deal with several images a second and “serve” them back to
thousands of users at the same time.
Companies have two choices when it comes to these servers. They can either buy a special Web meeting server to host their meetings on-site, or they can pay for a Web
meeting service every time and let the off-site provider worry about hosting the
meetings. The choice depends on how frequently the company holds Web meetings,
the average number of people attending the meetings, and the quality of engineering
and information technology.
Web meetings are an excellent example of how technology is changing the way
we do business. With all the technologies today, the traditional office might soon be a
thing of the past.
24. What is the disadvantage of the traditional meeting?
A. It needs more people to organize it.
B. It is expensive and time-consuming.
C. It results in traffic accidents frequently.
D. It fails to meet the demands of big companies.
25. How do some Web meeting software programs help improve the meetings?
A. By presenting successful documents.
B. By recording the frequency of distraction.
C. By tracking the listeners’ state of attention.
D. By taking surveys about a successful meeting.
26. What do you know about Web meetings according to the text?
A. Web meetings are likely to be widely used.
B. Web meetings help presenters stay focused.
C. Web meetings determine the quality of engineering.
D. Web meetings work well without the help of a server.
C
Every year, thousands of teenagers participate in programs at their local art
museums. But do any of them remember their time at museum events later in life?
A new report suggests that the answer is yes – and finds that alumni (毕业生) of
arts-based museum programs credit them with changing the course of their lives,
even years after the fact.The Whitney Museum of American Art, the Walker Art Center and the
Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles recently asked researchers to conduct
a study to find out how effective their long-standing teen art programs really are.
They involved over 300 former participants of four programs for teens that have
been in existence since the 1990s. Alumni, whose current ages range from 18 to
36, were invited to find out how they viewed their participation years after the fact.
Among the alumni surveyed, 75 percent of alumni rated the teen program
experience as the most favorable impact on their own lives, beating family, school
and their neighborhoods. Nearly 55 percent thought that it was one of the most
important experiences they’d ever had, regardless of age. And two-thirds said that
they were often in situations where their experience in museums affected their
actions or thoughts.
It turns out that participating in art programs also helps keep teens
enthusiastic about arts even after they reach adulthood: 96 percent of participants
had visited an art museum within the last two years, and 68 percent had visited an
art museum five or more times within the last two years. Thirty-two percent of
program alumni work in the arts as adults.
Though the study is the first of its kind to explore the impact of teen-specific
art programs in museums, it reflects other research on the important benefits of
engaging with the arts. A decade of surveys by the National Endowment for the
Arts found that childhood experience with the arts is significantly associated with
their income and educational attainment as adults. Other studies have linked arts
education to everything from lower drop-out rates to improvement in critical
thinking skills.
27. What does the underlined phrase “the fact” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Changing the course of children’s life.
B. Participating in childhood art programs.
C. Organizing arts-based museum programs. D. Remembering the time at museum events.
28. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell?
A. The result of the study.
B. The process of the study.
C. The approach to the study.
D. The object and content of the study.
29. What can be inferred of the study mentioned in the text?
A. Passion for arts may remain long in kids’ whole life.
B. No other studies exist concerning the benefits of arts.
C. Age matters in how people view their art experiences.
D. Most children taking part in art programs will work in arts.
30. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. How is Art Connected to Our Life?
B. Can Art Education Affect Our Income?
C. What Should Art Museums do for Kids?
D. Should Children Walk into Art Museums?

Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn’t matter if the
words come from ourselves or someone else. The positive and negative effects are
just as lasting.
31 We’re usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. In fact, we really
shouldn’t be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is
a healthy habit. This “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve
problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of
self-talk tends to be negative. 32 Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they
will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others.
For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly
language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar
manner. 33
Words possess power because of their lasting effect. Many of us regret
something we once said. We remember unkind words said to us as well. Before
speaking, we should always ask ourselves: 34 If what we want to say doesn’t
pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.
Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive
encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem and
motivate others to do their best. 35 Will we use our words to hurt or to heal?
The choice is ours.
A. Is it loving?
B. How should I say it?
C. We all talk to ourselves sometimes.
D. Negative words destroy all those things.
E. Generally people like positive and pleasant words.
F. However, critical language may cause anger and defense.
G. So we should only speak encouraging words to ourselves.

Jenny was a pretty eight-year-old girl.
One day when she and her mother were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny
saw a plastic pearl necklace, by which she was totally defeated. How eagerly she
wanted it! But when she saw the price, her heart sank a little. She gathered up her
courage and asked her mother if she would buy it for her. Her mother said, “Well, it is
a pretty necklace, but it costs an awful lot of money. I can buy you the necklace, but
when we get home, we should make up a list of housework that you can do to pay for
the necklace.” Jenny agreed immediately, feeling a burst of joy. So her mother bought
the pearl necklace for her. Jenny worked on her housework determinedly and earnestly every day. Soon Jenny paid off the pearls.
Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would read Jenny
her favorite story. One night when he finished the story, he said, “Jenny, do you love
me?” “Oh, yes, Daddy, you know I love you.” the little girl said delightedly, with a
broad smile on her face. “Well, then, give me your pearls.” Hearing that, Jenny froze
there, an anxious expression twisting her face. “Oh! Daddy, not my pearls! But you
can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her? You gave her to me last year for my
birthday. Okay?” “Oh no, darling, that’s okay.” Her father brushed her cheek with a
kiss, gently and calmly. “Good night, little one.”
A week later, her father once again asked Jenny after her story, “Do you love
me?” “Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you.” the little girl murmured softly, trying to
escape from her father’s eyes. “Well, then, give me your pearls.” “Oh, Daddy, not my
pearls! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her? She is my
favorite.” The little girl begged. “No, that’s okay,” her father said, smiling broadly
and sweetly and brushed her cheek again with a kiss. “God bless you, little one. Sweet
dreams.”

Dear Jim,
I am glad to know that you have joined your school’s calligraphy club. The
calligraphy piece sent to you was written by myself. I really hope you will like it.
The Chinese characters on the piece are “ 天 道 酬 勤 ”( Tian Dao Chou Qin),
meaning “Hard work pays off.” It is a well-known Chinese idiom, widely adopted as a
motto by Chinese people. There is a similar calligraphy piece hanging in the study at
my home, which was written by my grandfather. He gave it to me when I started to
learn calligraphy at age six in the hope that I would practise it often and learn it well.
You see now my efforts have paid off. I hope it can serve as an encouragement to you at
all times. I wrote this piece in the calligraphic style of my favorite calligrapher, Yan
Zhenqing, a renowned master of the Tang Dynasty. His style is Kaishu, a standard
script, suitable for beginners. I guess maybe it is the style that you are practising.
I know it is not easy to learn Chinese calligraphy. If you have any problems during
your study, I would be happy to help you. I sincerely hope you enjoy learning Chinese
calligraphy.
读后续写:
Paragraph 1:
Several days later, when Jenny’s father came in to read her story, Jenny was
waiting anxiously for him on the bed. When listening to the story, Jenny was totally
absent-minded, with her hands holding the necklace tightly and firmly. When the
story came to an end, unexpectedly, Jenny offered her beloved necklace to her father,
with her fingers trembling automatically. No one knew what the necklace meant to
her. She whispered to her father, softly and gently, “Daddy, you know I love you more than the necklace.” Then, the necklace slid into her father’s hands determinedly.
Paragraph 2:
Holding the plastic pearl his daughter offered, the father dragged out a blue box.
Much to Jenny’s amazement, a beautiful real pearl necklace lay peacefully in the box,
which set her heart racing. Jenny froze there, a thrilled expression twisting her face.
Before Jenny was able to say something. her father brushed a warm kiss on her face
and gathered her into his arms. Holding the genuine necklace in her hand, Jenny lifted
her lip, tears beginning to blur her vision.
