第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分 30 分)
第一节 (共 10 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 20 分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 4 个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Forget losing weight or saving money—we suggest one simple task to add to your
list of inspiring New Year's decisions: read a book. Trust us, and your brain will
thank you. Not only does reading increase the amount of daily pleasure in your life,
but it could also delay dementia (痴呆) and even help you live longer.
But still, picking the perfect novel isn't easy. Thankfully, Business
Insider asked a Harvard professor to recommend the one book he thinks every student
should read in 2019—and we suggest adding it to your list, too. (No time for all
the books on your list? Here's a shortcut: Read the endings to some of the world's
most famous books, instead.)
Steven Pinker, Professor of Psychology at Harvard, recommends The
Internationalists by legal scholars Hathaway and Shapiro. The book makes a
surprising statement that the Kellogg-Briand Paris Peace Pact (条约) of 1928, which
declared war illegal, has caused a steady drop in war throughout history.
“But in their fascinating and evidence-rich book, they make a lifelike case,”
Pinker said. “And like The Clash of Civilizations and The End of History, the
book presents a sweeping vision (视野) of the international scene, making sense of
many developments in the news and recent history.”
Other professors at Harvard recommended classics like Anna Karenina by Tolstoy,
as well as Just Mercy by Stevenson, The Theory of Moral Sentiments by Adam Smith,
and Robot-Proof by Joseph Aoun.
So, go ahead and give (at least) one of these books a read in 2019! And while
you're at it, you should add the following 20 books you really should have read by
now to your list, too…
21. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “shortcut” in the 2nd
paragraph?
A. A time-saving way to read books.
B. A lazy person's way to read books.
C. A quick way to know about endings of books.
D. A wise way to deal with too many books to read.
22. What or who has reduced the number of wars throughout history?
A. The Paris Peace Pact. B. The Internationalists.
C. Hathaway and Shapiro. D. A wide vision of the international
scene.
23. What may be written in the next or last paragraph of the passage?
A. More advice on reading books.
B. The names of the 20 books recommended.
C. The main contents of the 20 books recommended.
D. The brief introduction of the 20 books recommended.
B
Failure is an unavoidable part of life. Though science has named some life skills
that promise success, we're told over and over again that no great success was ever
achieved without failure -- or many failed attempts. One of life's most important
lessons, therefore, has to be how to handle failure best. But what is the message?
For starters, ignore advice from anyone that tells you, “Don't beat yourself
up about it,” no matter how well-meaning they are. According to the new research
from the University of Kansas, we absolutely should be beating ourselves up when
we fail. Marketing professor Noelle Nelson and her team found that the more emotional
a person's response is to failure, the more likely they are to achieve better results
the next time they deal with a related task.
The researchers carried out two experiments in which undergraduate students were
required to perform specific tasks. In one experiment, they were asked to search
online for a squeezer and report the lowest price they could find with the possibility
of winning a $50 cash prize. However, the task was controlled, and all participants
were told (by a computer) that the lowest price was $3.27 less than their reported
price. Consequently, no participant won the cash prize. When the results were
announced, some participants were asked to focus on their emotional response, and
others on their cognitive ( 认 知 的 ) response. During the next similar task,
participants who focused on their emotional response to failure made more effort
than those who focused on a cognitive response.
Everybody has their own unique challenges, responsibilities, duties, and
projects, but these findings are related to all of us. Your personal failure may
be a cake that fails to rise, a presentation that goes wrong, or a deadline that
gets missed—it doesn't matter. What matters is how you react to it. Instead of
thinking about the failure, let yourself feel bad about it. Then follow this advice
on how to bounce back after your failure.
24. What's the relationship between failure and success?
A. Failure promises success. B. Failure is the key to success.
C. Failure does damage to success. D. Well-handled failure is good for
success.
25. Why does the writer support beating oneself up when failing?
A. It's a well-meaning suggestion for failure.
B. It's been proved by the study of a university.
C. Being emotional is good for his future success.
D. It can make people less emotional about failure.
26. Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. Personal Failure Is a Cake That Fails to Appear
B. The Most Productive Way to Handle Any Failure
C. Different Methods to Change Failure into Success
D. The Reason Why Failure Is the Mother of Success
C
Would you buy a car that released calming smells into the air when you are stuck
in heavy traffic? Would you buy a robot that smells like a human being?
Many people have seen the 3-D computer-made environments of virtual (虚拟的)
reality (VR). Now these virtual worlds will not just look and sound real. Researchers
have created VR environments that even smell like the real things. With the new
technology, users open a virtual door and step into a new environment, like a
rainforest. After they enter this virtual world, special equipment releases
forest-like smells into the air to make the experience seem more real.
Suzanne Fisher-Murray said, “It is a really wonderful experience that you have
because you reexploring this environment and you have smells with it.”
In the United States, Smell-O-Vision was designed to provide smells during the
showing of a movie. The Smell-O-Vision system was once popular in the 1960s. Now,
Emanuela Maggioni says it is close to becoming popular again. “People will be
impressed by the connection with emotions, memories, and ... the sense of smell,”
Maggioni said. “It is unbelievable what we can do with technology.”
The uses for smell technology are not just limited to films and the performing
arts. Researchers showed a computer program where users could imagine themselves
driving a car. The system included a special smell-spraying machine. Dmitrijs
Dmitrenko said, “We want to deliver the smell of lavender (薫衣草) every time the
person drives over the speed limit. We choose lavender because it's a very calming
smell.”
Scientists are experimenting with smell instead of sounds or image-based
warnings on telecommunications equipment. And businesses are already using smell
to influence people's behavior. “Not only...in stores... But on the other side,
you can create and stimulate (刺激) immediate buying,” Maggioni said. “So you're
in a library and you smell coffee and actually you are unconsciously having the need
to drink a coffee.”
27. Using smell technology, researchers make VR environments ________.
A .have a smell of a rainforest B. even smell like real ones
C. look like a 4-D environment D. impress people with a virtual world
28. The example of Smell-O-Vision proves that ___________.
A. smell technology has been tried before
B. America is the first to use smell technology
C. cinemas are the most suitable for smell sense
D. it was out of date to use smell-spraying devices
29. How is smell technology used by businessmen?
A. To make buyers understand salesmen better.
B. To remind people of their unrealistic buying.
C. To help customers choose their favorite goods.
D. To encourage people to buy something suddenly.
30. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The advanced smell-spraying machines.
B. The developments of smell technology.
C. A major breakthrough of smell technology.
D. The sense of smell in human communication.

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)
To an outsider, any culture can seem confusing. And the UK's got a thing or two
that raises a few eyebrows. However, understand the reasons and things might be less
puzzling. 36 .
In a world where 61% of nations drive on the right, Brits drive on the left.
Why? Most people think it goes back to Medieval ( 中 世 纪 ), maybe even Roman
times. 37 when you remember that right-handed people wear a sword on their left
side. Travelling on the left allowed you to keep your weapon arm toward your opponent
(对手), who would be on your right. This practice continued until the 18th century
when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the
left.
Visitors to the UK that have just washed their hands in an old-fashioned sink(水槽)
might be wondering why one tap is only for hot water, the other cold. 38 . So,
why? It relates to a time when hot and cold water were kept separate to prevent
pollution. Drinkable cold water came from a main supply, but hot water came from
tanks and was not considered suitable for drinking. So they were kept apart.
Millions of people drink tea worldwide, but the Brits put milk in theirs. Why?
This mysterious practice relates to the quality of china cup used in the 18th century
when tea was first imported. For the majority of Brits, the cups available couldn't
stand the heat of the boiling water and would break, so milk was added first. 39
. And this practice soon became a national habit.
40 . As you can see, Brits have perfectly clear reasons for left-hand driving,
two-tap sinks and tea with milk. Even if they still seem strange, at least now you're
in the know.
A. This makes it difficult to improve
B. There is a method to the madness
C. This unusual behavior makes sense
D. You can know the origins of the practices
E. Either can make washing very uncomfortable
F. This cooled the cup enough to resist the boiling water
G. Here are the reasons for three of Britain's more puzzling practices

I'm a 43-year-old mother of three young kids with a Master of Science degree.
I a l s o
36 pizzas for a living. I started doing it after 37 home with my children
for four years. Caring for your kids all day is a 38 opportunity for many women,
but it wasn't right for me. I began suffering from 39 and decided to get a job
so I'd have more of my own identity. Now I work nights when husband is home so we
don't have to 40 child care.
After I learned the basics of pizzas delivery—like getting the 41 together
and not getting lost—I began my new "career". Being 42 and organized by nature,
I studied the tipping patterns of the town.
Our community had a small, expensive liberal-arts 43 full of students who
ordered lots of pizzas. Most of the kids were friendly and polite. 44 Friday
and Saturday nights, some of the dorms had huge parties. 45 the stairs were
sticky from beer and the music was so loud they couldn't 46 me knock on the door,
the crowds of happy students shouting, "Pizza! Pizza!" always let me through.
The first few days of each month, one of us drivers would take 47 turn
covering the public-housing developments. These customers did not always tip well,
48 I always liked seeing the children and adults sitting outside and 49 the
evenings when the weather was nice.
I also deliver to multimillion-dollar homes now, but the 50 I make in tips
has stayed the same. As I 51 to these beautiful houses, it's easy to fantasize
about a 52 tip. The person who answers the door always 53 young and, like
the members of my own family, 54 educated. All I usually get is a brief "Thank
y o u " a n d a d o l l a r o r t w o .
People might say I'm crazy to waste my education, but I have 55 most of them
don't: a job I love.
36. A. buy B. wait C. turn D. deliver
37. A. staying B. cleaning C. coming D. going
38. A. bad B. fantastic C. dull D. terrible
39. A. depression B. satisfaction C. expression D. education
40. A. call for B. depend on C. learn about D. know of
41. A. goods B. news C. books D. orders
42. A. competitive B. lazy C. changeable D. quiet
43. A. bar B. college C. company D. house
44. A. On B. In C. At D. Of
45. A. After B. When C. Though D. If
46. A. have B. make C. notice D. hear
47. A. our B. their C. your D. my
48. A. thus B. but C. even D. then
49. A. describing B. enjoying C. considering D. expecting
50. A. amount B. number C. degree D. weight
51. A. pick out B. make out C. drive up D. show up
52. A. generous B. honest C. friendly D. modest
53. A. sees B. watches C. looks D. stares
54. A. high B. highly C. deep D. deeply
55. A. who B. which C. what D. that

Dear Jack,
I’m glad to know that you are interested in Chinese great scientists. I am more
than happy to introduce to you my favorite scientist, whose name is Tu Youyou.
Tu Youyou, a great chemist and scientist, devoted most of her time to finding
the cure for malaria. In 2015, she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for
discovering artemisinin, which is the key to the treatment of malaria. So great is
her contribution to the world that she has become an idol of many people, including
me. Behind her success were numerous failures and setbacks, but never did she give
up. Inspired by her story, I decided to study harder so as to realize my dream.
I hope her story can also have a positive effect on you. Looking forward to
hearing from you.
Yours,
Li Hua

As an animal doctor, I meet many kinds of animals. You may think that an animal
doctor mainly sees animals that are very sick or badly treated, but that is not always
the case. People who bring their pets to see an animal doctor are usually animal
lovers and care greatly for their pets. In fact, it is a pity we do not get to see
more animals that are really in need of treatment. Of course, most animals that I
often see are cats and dogs, with a few rabbits. I treat kangaroos and snakes at
the local zoo sometimes. Perhaps my biggest and strangest challenge was treating
a giraffe for neck problems. It is normally quite easy to fit something to an animal
to stop it bending its neck. Obviously, for a giraffe this is a big problem. I tried
various pieces of plastic and metal until I came up with a solution — a very long
water pipe. My work also takes me to farms where I look after cows, sheep and so
on. I think my job is very important and I like my job.
