第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40 分）
第一节 (共10小题，每小题2分，满分20分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选
项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Twelve years ago, I arrived in Central Florida from Puerto Rico. I had heard of a
job opportunity and decided to pursue it. But it never became a reality. I quickly learned
that being alone without resources in an unfamiliar city was not a comfortable situation
to be in.
Once my limited funds ran out I became homeless and spent a year and a half
living on the streets of Orlando. Apart from feeling not being noticed and missing my
family, I had to face another challenge—hunger.
For the first time in my life, I, as a foreign man, who had lived my life in the
relative comfort of the middle class, understood the desperation someone feels when
they don’t get enough to eat. I clearly remembered having run a distance of more than 7 miles on many occasions just to make it to a local feeding program before they closed at
7 pm.
Once the need for food was met, the next challenge would arise—where to find a
place to sleep for the night. Fortunately, local programs like the Coalition for the
Homeless, Second Harvest Food Bank and the Wayne Densch Center were an important
part of my ability to survive my painful experience.
With the assistance of these programs, I was accepted by a college scholarship
program through the Coalition and obtained two degrees from Valencia.
My experience has helped me understand that devoting my life to helping others
offers lasting rewards. Today, I am employed as Childhood Hunger Programs Manager
at Second Harvest Food Bank and oversee the summer feeding, Hi-Five Kids Pack, and
Kids Café programs. I am so proud to be able to distribute food resources to those
wonderful programs and help hundreds more like me.
21. What can be inferred from Paragraph 1?
A. The author rejected many chances to get a job in Florida.
B. Florida was not a good place for people living there.
C. It was impossible for the author to get a job then
D. Many local people were out of work in Florida.
22. Before being accepted by a college scholarship program, the author_____.
A．had been struggling financially.
B．had won his degree in a university.
C．had lived with his relatives happily.
D．had lost hope of facing the future.
23. From his experience, the author learns that ______.
A．a friend in need is a friend indeed.
B．one good turn deserves another.
C．misfortune may be an actual blessing.
D．where there is a will there is a way.
BSmartphones, tablets and smart watches are banned at school for all children under
15 in France. Under the ban students are not able to use their phones at all during school
hours, including meal breaks.
“I think it’s a good thing. School is not about being on your phone,” Paris mum
Marie-Caroline Madeleine told AFP. “It's hard with kids. You can't control what they
see and that’s one of the things that worries me as a parent.”
There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned
phones. McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and
Principal Pitsa Binnion said this has been a success. McKinnon students still have a
Chromebook to use in every class for day-to-day learning but they're not allowed to use
social media. Ms Binnion said at first “teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨),”
but now they’re seeing the positives ( 优 势 ). “They come to school and they're not
allowed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks,” she said.
“It’s been wonderful as for students communicating with each other at lunchtime
and not looking at their screen,” Ms Binnion said. She also leads by example and
doesn't use her mobile phone in school. “I think anyone can do it if we’ve done it.”
Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology
researcher Dr Joanne Orlando wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this
year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it’s important to educate
kids to live in the age they are raised in. “A good education for students today is
knowing how to use technology to learn, communicate and work with ideas,” she wrote.
“Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response to a 2020 state-of-play.”
24. Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?
A. Teachers find it hard to control kids.
B. Kids behave badly nowadays.
C. School is for studying.
D. Her kids depend too much on phones.
25. What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?
A. Students can now see the good of the ban.
B. Some teachers were against it at first. C. Students can use their phones at lunch breaks.
D. Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.
26. What does Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?
A. It will disconnect parents and kids.
B. It will cause kids to communicate less.
C. It will make education go back 60 years.
D. It will prevent kids being tech-minded.
C
The United States seems to have become extremely enthusiastic about competition.
The famous Scripps National Spelling Bee — an annual spelling contest — now allows
kids who lost in regional competitions but whose parents agree to pay an entry fee along
with their own food and accommodation to compete. And while some kids are working
for what they call a “spelling career”, others are approaching chess competitions, dance
competitions, cooking or other passions ( 爱 好 ) that previous generations developed
somewhat later in life.
I’m disturbed by the phenomenon, which seems to be getting worse and more
intense (激烈的).
My teacher always warned us that competition is a destructive quality; that the goal
is never to beat anyone else. I think he’ll be cheered by author Peggy Noonan’s idea that
a lot of us are running our own races, trying to rise to the occasion and beat some past
and limited conception of ourselves by doing something great.
I heartily agree. Instead of paying attention to the accomplishments or possessions
of others, we need to focus on our own potential, our own growth and take pleasure in
our own particular set of circumstances. The battle for life is not against anyone else but
against the darkness inside that tries to bring us down. I wish you only well. Your good
doesn’t reduce mine. Your bad gives me no pleasure.
Ms. Noonan also suggests that “you’re running your own race alongside others
running theirs, and in the same direction. You’re doing something great together.” If we
stop worrying about what our neighbor is earning or driving, the size of his house, the success of his marriage, the accomplishments of his children, we can sit back and enjoy
our own lives. And if we all focus on what we each can achieve, regardless of anyone
else, we have a chance of working as one, of actually being united.
Competition divides us. There’re winners and losers. But that’s a very limited
picture of reality. It may apply to spelling bees and soccer matches and even in some
college classes, but life isn’t about triumphing ( 战 胜 ) over someone else; it’s about
triumphing over ourselves. The only acceptable competition is one where we encourage
each other to be the best human being possible, and that’s the only game where
“everyone’s a winner”.
27. What does the author worry about?
A. Youth competition lacks diversity.
B. Youth competition is expensive.
C. Youth competition lacks fairness.
D. Youth competition is fierce.
28. What should we do in the battle for life according to the author?
A. Know our competitors well.
B. Get rid of the bad things inside us.
C. Learn from others’ successes and failures.
D. Leave everything to chance.
29. How does Peggy Noonan describe the way people live their lives?
A. No one goes in the same direction as anyone else.
B. One man’s loss is another man’s gain.
C. People follow parallel paths to each other.
D. People take turns to lead the race.
30. Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. Competition Is a Good Thing, But Not to the Youth
B. Through Competition, We Become Better Ourselves
C. Your Real Competition Is With Yourself
D. Everyone Is a Winner in the Battle for Life

Dear Jack，
How are you doing? Knowing that you are a lover of Chinese painting, I am
writing to tell you something about the Chinese Painting exhibition held in our school.
As scheduled, the event took place on April 2oth in our school hall. Some experts
were present and gave lectures of some well-known artists, through which we had a
good understanding of Chinese painting. Some paintings made by students are on
display, which was a feat for us. Every student present could feel the beauty of the
Chinese painting, benefiting a lot from the activity. Had you attended, you would
certainly know more about Chinese arts.
Hopefully, you can join us next year.

Ladies and gentlemen, here’s some information about our trip to Mount Tai
tomorrow. It’s a long journey, about three hours, so we have to start early. At about 6:30
we’ll have to get up and get prepared for breakfast. 7:00 is the time for it in this hotel on
the second floor, and don’t forget to bring your blue tickets. After breakfast we’ll go to
the car park, where we’ll get on the bus at about 7:30. That’s a big park behind the hotel.
Remember to bring your pink tickets for lunch. We’ll have lunch at a restaurant near the
mountain and you must have your pink tickets or you’ll have to go hungry. Those who
haven’t got one yet please come to the office on the second floor right now.
One more thing, I know it’s summer but it can get quite cold in the mountains
even in July, so bring a blanket in case.
That’ll be all. I’ll see you tomorrow.
