第二节 阅读理解 (共 15 小题;每小题 2 分, 满分 30 分)
A
Here is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business
in some countries.
In Brazil
Brazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for
them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (particularly women) with
light cheek kisses. Schedules tend to be flexible, with business meetings sometimes starting later
than planned. But to be safe, be on time. Meals can stretch for hours—there’s no such thing as
rushing a meal in Brazil. Lunches also can start in the mid to late afternoon. Brazilians are social,
preferring face-to-face communication over mails or phone calls.
In Singapore
Singaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite
bow. Business cards should be offered and received with two hands. Arriving late is considered disrespectful. So be on time. Efficiency( 效 率 ) is the goal, so meetings and dealings often are
fast-paced. Singaporeans are direct in their discussions, even when the subject is about money. Rank
is important and authority is respected. This determines both people interact in meetings. For
example, people avoid disagreeing outright with someone with a higher rank.
In the United Arab Emirates
In the UAE, status is important, so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their
titles. The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere. So, do not pull away the handshake.
Women should cover themselves when it comes to dress. Men also tend to be covered from neck to
elbows(肘部) and down to the knees. People do not avoid entertaining in their homes, but they also
hold business meals at restaurants. Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be
avoided. When meetings are one-to-one, if your host offers you coffee, you should refuse. It might
seem odd, but it is a cultural tradition. Coffee should only be accepted if it is always set out or
presented.
In Switzerland
The Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name. They also are respectful of
private lives. You should be careful not to ask about personal topics. Punctuality (守时) is vital,
something that comes from a deep respect for others’ time. Arrive at any meeting or even a few
minutes early to be safe. They also have clear structure in their companies. Higher-ups make the
final decisions, even if others might disagree. Neat, clean dress is expected. The Swiss follow formal
table manners. They also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows off the table. It is
polite to finish the food on your plate.
41. The passage is mainly about ________.
A．communication types
B．the workplace atmosphere
C．customs and social manners
D ． living conditions and
standards
42. Why do Singaporeans avoid arguing with their boss?
A．They put efficiency in the first place.
B．They dislike face-to-face communication.
C ． They want to finish meetings as quickly as
possible.
D．They are supposed to obey the person of a higher
rank.
43. In the UAE, when should you refuse the coffee if it is offered?
A．When greeting seniors.
B．When meeting the host alone.
C．When attending a presentation.
D ． When dining with business
partners.
44. In which country do people care about where to put their hands at the dinner table?
A．In Brazil. B ． In
Singapore.
C ． In the United Arab
Emirate.
D ． In
Switzerland.
BHacking our senses to boost learning power
Some schools are pumping music, noises and pleasant smells into the classroom to see if it
improves exam results. Could it work? Why do songs stick in our heads? What does your school
smell like? Is it noisy or peaceful?
It might not seem important, but a growing body of research suggests that smells and sounds can
have an impact on learning, performance and creativity. Indeed, some head teachers have recently
taken to broadcasting noises and pumping smells into their schools to see whether it can boost grades.
Is there anything in it? And if so, what are the implications for the way we work and study?
There is certainly some well-established research to suggest that some noises can have a harmful
effect on learning. Numerous studies over the past 15 years have found that children attending
schools under the flight paths of large airports fall behind in their exam results. Bridget Shield, a
professor of acoustics (声学) at London South Bank University, and Julie Dockrell, from the Institute
of Education, have been conducting studies on the effects of all sorts of noises, such as traffic and
sirens (汽笛), as well as noise generated by the children themselves. When they recreated those
particular sounds in an experimental setting while children completed various learning tasks, they
found a significant negative effect on exam scores.
‘Everything points to a bad impact of the noise on children’s performance, in numeracy, in
literacy, and in spelling,’says Shield. The noise seemed to have an especially harmful effect on
children with special needs.
Whether background sounds are beneficial or not seems to depend on what kind of noise it is —
and the volume. In a series of studies published last year, Ravi Mehta from the College of Business at
Illinois and his colleagues tested people’s creativity while exposed to a soundtrack made up of
background noises — such as coffee-shop chatter and construction-site drilling — at different
volumes. They found that people were more creative when the background noises were played at a
medium level than when volume was low. Loud background noise, however, damaged their
creativity.
Many teachers all over the world already play music to students in class. Many are inspired by
the belief that hearing music can boost IQ in later tasks, the so-called Mozart effect. While the
evidence actually suggests it’s hard to say classical music boosts brainpower, researchers do think
pleasant sounds before a task can sometimes lift your mood and help you perform well, says Perham,
who has done his own studies on the phenomenon. The key appears to be that you enjoy what you’re
hearing. ‘If you like the music or you like the sound — even listening to a Stephen King novel —
then you do better. It doesn’t matter about the music,’ he says.
So, it seems that schools that choose to prevent disturbing noises and create positive
soundscapes could enhance the learning of their students, so long as they make careful choices. Yet
this isn’t the only sense being used to affect learning. Special educational needs students at
Sydenham high school in London are being encouraged to revise different subjects in the presence of
different smells — grapefruit scents for maths, lavender for French and spearmint for history.
45. The four questions in the first paragraph are meant to ________.
A．create some sense of humour to please the readers
B．provide the most frequently asked questions in schools nowadays
C．hold the readers’ attention and arouse their curiosity to go on
reading
D．declare the purpose of the article: to try to offer key to those questions
46. What does the conclusion of the studies of noise conducted by Bridget Shield and Julie Dockrell
suggest?
A．Peaceful music plays an active role in students’ learning.
B．Not all noises have a negative impact on children’s performance.
C．We should create for school children a more peaceful environment.
D．Children with special needs might be exposed to some particular
sounds.
47. Ravi Mehta’s experiment indicates that ________.
A．students’ creativity improves in a quiet environment
B．we may play some Mozart music while students are learning
C．a proper volume of background noises does improve creativity
D．noise of coffee-shop chatter is better than that of construction-site drilling
48. Towards the positive impact of appropriate background sound and smell on students’ learning
and creativity, the author’s attitude is ________.
A．ambiguous B．doubtful C．negative D．supportive
49. Which of the following is most likely to follow up the research findings?
A．Experts’ research into other senses that can improve students’ grades.
B．More successful examples of boosting learning power by using music.
C．Suggestions for pumping lots of pleasant smells into school campuses.
D．Debates on whether noises can really have positive effect on students’
performance.
C
Two things changed my life: my mother and a white plastic bike basket. I have thought long
and hard about it and it’s true. I would be a different person if my mom hadn’t turned a silly bicycle
accessory into a life lesson I carry with me today.
My mother and father were united in their way of raising children, but it mostly fell to my
mother to actually carry it out. Looking back, I honestly don’t know how she did it. Managing the
family budget must have been a very hard task, but she made it look effortless. If we complained
about not having what another kid did, we’d hear something like, ‘I don’t care what so-and-so got
for his birthday, you are not getting a TV in your room/a car for your birthday/a lavish sweet-16
party.’ We had to earn our allowance (零用钱) by doing chores around the house. I can still
remember how long it took to polish the legs of our coffee table. My brothers can no doubt
remember hours spent cleaning the house. Like the two little girls growing up at the White House,
we made our own beds (no one left the house until that was done) and picked up after ourselves. We
had to keep track of our belongings, and if something was lost, it was not replaced.
It was summer and, one day, my mother drove me to the bike shop to get a tire fixed—and there
it was in the window. White, shiny, plastic and decorated with flowers, the basket winked at me and
I knew—I knew—I had to have it.
‘It’s beautiful,’ my mother said when I pointed it out to her, ‘What a neat basket.’
I tried to hold off at first, I played it cool for a short while. But then I guess I couldn’t stand it
any longer: ‘Mom, please can I please, please get it? I’ll do extra chores for as long as you say. I’ll
do anything, but I need that basket, I love that basket. Please, Mom. Please?’I was desperate.
‘You know,’ she said, gently rubbing my back while we both stared at what I believed was the
coolest thing ever, ‘If you save up you could buy this yourself.’
‘By the time I make enough it’ll be gone!’
‘Maybe Roger here could hold it for you,’ she smiled at Roger, the bike guy.
‘He can’t hold it for that long, Mom. Someone else will buy it .Please, Mom, Please?’
‘There might be another way,’ she said.
And so our paying plan unfolded. My mother bought the beautiful basket and put it safely in
some hiding place I couldn’t find. Each week I eagerly counted my growing savings increased by
extra work here and there (washing the car, helping my mother make dinner, delivering or collecting
things on my bike that already looked naked without the basket in front).And then, weeks later, I
counted, re-counted and jumped for joy. Oh, happy day! I made it! I finally had the exact amount
we’d agreed upon….
Days later the unthinkable happened. A neighborhood girl I’d played with millions of times
appeared with the exact same basket fixed to her shiny, new bike that already had all the bells and
whistles. I rode hard and fast home to tell my mother about this disaster. This horrible turn of events.
And then came the lesson I’ve taken with me through my life: ‘Honey, Your basket is
extra-special,’ Mom said, gently wiping away my hot tears. ‘Your basket is special because you
paid for it yourself.’

D. something she could do without
54. To the author, it seemed to be a horrible turn of events that____________.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Bobby was getting cold sitting out in his backyard in the snow. Bobby didn’t wear boots; or
rather, he didn’t own any. The thin sneakers he wore had a few holes in them and they did a poor job
of keeping out the cold.
Bobby had been in his backyard for about an hour already. Try as he might, he could not come
up with an idea for his mother’s Christmas gift. He shook his head as he thought, “This is useless.
Even if I do come up with an idea, I don’t have any money for a gift.”
Wiping tears from his eyes, Bobby started walking down to the street where the shops were. It
wasn’t easy being six without a father, especially when he needed a man to talk to.
Bobby walked from shop to shop, looking into each decorated window. Everything seemed so
beautiful but so out of reach. It was starting to get dark and Bobby reluctantly turned to walk home
when suddenly his eyes caught the glimmer (微光) of the setting sun’s rays reflecting on something
on the roadside. He reached down and discovered a shiny dime (一角硬币).
Never before has anyone felt as wealthy as Bobby did at that moment. As he held his newly-
found treasure, warmth spread throughout his entire body and he walked into the first store. His
excitement quickly turned cold when salesperson after salesperson told him that he could not buy
anything with only a dime.
He saw a flower shop and went inside to wait in line. When the shop owner asked if he could
help him, Bobby presented the dime and asked if he could buy one flower for his mother’s Christmas
gift. The shop owner looked at Bobby and his ten-cent offering. Then he put his hand on Bobby’s
shoulder, saying, “You just wait here and I’ll see what I can do for you.”
The sound of the door closing as the last customer left pulled Bobby back to reality. All alone in
the shop, Bobby began to feel alone and afraid.

I’m glad to have this chance to share some ideas about garbage classification with you.
To my understanding , the earth is home to every individual, and it’s our duty to protect the
environment voluntarily. By sorting the waste, we can not only reduce pollution but also save energy, which will pave the way for recycling of valuable resources.
For the sake of our environment and life, we are expected to learn to sort the rubbish and make it
a habit. Every individual can make a difference and let’s bring a brighter future for the planet!
Thank you!

Paragraph1:
Eventually the shop owner came out and moved to the counter. There, before Bobby's eyes, lay
twelve red roses, with leaves of green and tiny white flowers all tied together with a big silver tape.
Bobby's heart sank as the owner placed them gently into a long white box. "That will be ten cents,
young man." the shop owner said, reaching out his hand for the dime. Slowly, Bobby moved his
hand to give the man his dime. Could this be true? He wondered.
Paragraph2:
With the bunch of beautiful roses in his hands, Bobby backed off and then turned and ran.
Within minutes, he was at home, still breathless. “Look, Mother, what have I got for you?” Bobby
called out in the backyard. Mother came out from inside the house. She could hardly believe her
eyes upon seeing the beautiful flowers in front of her. “Merry Christmas!” Bobby said and began to
tell her everything he had experienced in the flower shop. Tearfully, Mother hugged her son in her
arms. Standing in the bitter cold air, they somehow didn't feel cold at all.

M: Well, Mrs. Brown, what seems to be the problem with little David?

M: Let me give him a checkup. Take off his coat, please.
Text 3
W: What about going to a movie this weekend, Henry?
M: Sorry, Lisa, but I’m going to Lake Cumberland this weekend. It’s the largest lake in
Kentucky.
W: I know that. It is a major travel destination in the region. Text 4
W: Mike, I heard your car was being repaired yesterday.
M: Yes. Actually it’s still being repaired today.
W: So did you come to work by subway this morning?
M: I planned to call a taxi, but Tom offered me a lift. His office is in the building across the
street.

W: Hello. Business Center. This is Christine speaking. How may I help you?
M: I’m in the main conference room and I’ve got a bit of a problem. I’ve connected my computer to
the video projector, and the Internet also seems to be working, ⑥but at this speed I won’t be able
to give my presentation. I need a faster connection.
W: ⑦I’ll call the technician, sir.
M: Thank you. And ask him to come immediately. I’m getting nervous. The presentation will begin
in half an hour.
W: ⑦I’ll get him to come in 10 minutes, sir.
M: That’ll be good. Thanks for your help.

M: Karen, I heard you’re looking for work. ⑧What about teaching physics in my school? We’re
looking for some physics teachers now.
W: Are you kidding me? I don’t have a physics degree or physics education. How can I do this job
well?
M: Well, it’s really hard to find physics teachers in the state now. Don’t you know that many high
school physics teachers in the US don’t have a physics degree or physics education? ⑧Two of my
colleagues have no physics degree, either.
W: Really? That’s hard to believe. ⑨But I’d rather do something else, though I love teaching. I
don’t think people without a physics degree or physics education should teach this subject.
M: I guess you’re right. But it’s really a big problem in our country now. I hope more people will be
educated to become physics teachers.
W: Me, too.

W: Mark, do you know where the world’s oldest amusement park is located?
M: Isn’t it in the United States?
W: No. And it doesn’t sit in the UK, either. ⑩It’s called Bakken and is located in Denmark.
M: So when was it opened?
W: It was opened in 1583. The first attraction was actually all-natural. ⑪The area is home to a
natural spring, which was so clean that attracted many people in the early 16th century.
Then more and more people came there to chat and play games. Also, lots of entertainers gave their
best shows.
M: Sounds great! It seems that it was so popular. W: Yes, but it was not always like that. ⑫During the region of the royal family, it became a
closed area to the public.
M: It’s a pity!
W: But, luckily, under the leadership of King Frederick V, it was developed and reopened to the
public in the 18th century. That’s when more performers, businessmen, and rides slowly took over.
M: Is it still open?
W: Yes. It is still open today with different roller coasters, Ferris wheels, and other rides. Shall we
visit it one day?
M: Sounds great.

W: ⑬Welcome to our program, Mr. Evans. So what did you dream of doing in the past?
M: Well, ⑭I’ve always been passionate about the power of sports to change lives, particularly
for kids, but I never had the resources to turn my dream into reality before 2017.
W: What allowed you to realize your dream in 2017?
M: ⑮I won a contest put on by Sam’s Club that year. The Walmart giant was looking for
ideas for ways to help the local community, and I was the winner for my idea for a sports club that
would work with local schools to help improve kids’ physical and mental health.
W: So what was the prize?
M: ⑯The prize was a $1, 000 gift card plus $25, 000 to put toward the business.
W: So how did you use the money?
M: I used the money to co-found the Competitive Edge Athletic Performance Center, and the Dale
City “Lightning” Track Club. I can develop sports training for kids through them.
W: I want to say the real winners are the kids. Well, Mr. Evans, I want to thank you for doing all that
for the kids. And thank you again for sharing your story with us.
M: The honor is all mine.

W: In July, 2017, researchers from the Norwegian Polar Institute placed a tracking collar on a young
arctic fox believed to be less than one year old. ⑰The collar allowed them to use a satellite to
track the fox no matter where she went. Until March 24, 2018, the fox stayed on the island of
Spitzenberg. Then, suddenly, on March 26, she left the island, traveling across the sea ice. Just 21
days and about 940 miles later, she arrived in Greenland. From Greenland, ⑱she carried on, and
finally reached Ellesmere Island in Canada on July 1, traveling over 2,175 miles in total.
Scientists shows that it’s the longest journey the arctic fox has ever made. In fact, ⑲it was
probably the moving sea ice that helped the fox travel so quickly on some of the days that she
covered great distances. However, scientists are not sure what happened to the fox. ⑳Its tracking
collar stopped working in February, 2019. So they don’t know the fate of the record-setting
arctic fox.
