第三部分 阅读理解(共30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、 D中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。(共15小题;每小题2分,共30分)
A
Monday, Oct. 23, marks the beginning of Shuangjiang or “Frost’s Descent”, the 18th of the 24 solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar. It usually falls around October 23 and ends around November 7, making it the last term of autumn and signifying the last two weeks of the season.
An end and a new beginning
By the time of Shuangjiang, most of the harvesting work is already completed in northern China. Even the most cold-resistant (耐寒的)crops can no longer grow. Farmers are now able to enjoy a period of rest.
But in the south, the harvest is still in its best time, as farmers have to take home the sweet potatoes before they are destroyed by the coming frost.
Across the country, after a year of farming, now it is time to plow the fields and prepare the soil for next year.
Enjoy the flaming red maple leaves(枫叶)
Autumn might be the most colorful season in China with the leaves turning from golden yellow to red. Activities like hiking become popular as people appreciate the bright red leaves.
Nearly all the tourist websites list the best sites for admiring the red maple leaves during this time, and many cities start to offer official routes for the most picturesque views of the leaves.
Appreciating in the view is an old tradition starting in ancient times. Du Mu, a well-known poet from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) depicted the mountainous scenery in a poem: “I stopped the coach as charmed by the maple woods; Frosted autumn leaves outshine February flowers in redness.”
Best time to adjust to a nourishing lifestyle
It is said that Shuangjiang is the best time to adjust to a nourishing(营养的) life, which reflects the belief that this is an important time to focus on health. “Keeping warm” becomes a top priority(优先考虑).
Persimmon is the favored fruit in many areas. Chinese believe that permission could not only keep off the coldness, but also strengthen the muscles and bones. Other fruits, include apples and bananas are believed to help supply the necessary nutrition for the human body.
51. According to the passage, Shuangjiang means ____________.
A. the beginning of winter B. the ending of the harvest
C. the last 15 days of autumn D. the beginning of the harvest
52. The writer uses the poem to show that ___________.
A. poets take more interest in autumn
B. admiring the autumn view is a Chinese custom
C. various routes are provided for us to enjoy the view
D. February flowers outshine frosted autumn leaves in redness
53. ________ is considered the most important thing around Shuangjiang.
A. Keeping warm B. Doing more exercise
C. Balancing diet D. Getting enough sleep
54. The purpose of the passage is to _____________.
A. explain the importance of the 24 solar terms
B. show different activities during harvest time
C. help readers understand the charm of autumn
D. introduce Shuangjiang and its influence on us
B
On a hot evening in September 2016, the Eagles was threatening to win its first game of the season. “I was really excited,” said one team member Peter. “This was the game we’d been looking forward to as we were going to play against the best opponent(对手)Lions.”
With only seconds left in the fourth quarter and the Lions up 29-28, all the Eagles were quite nervous and they decided to go one yard for a touchdown(触地得分)to grab a dramatic come-from-behind victory. However, they gave the game away.
Just after the Eagles quarterback(四分卫)David had connected with the receiver Mike at the three-yard line, a Lions defender suddenly delivered a fierce hit, knocking them both to the ground.
“There was a huge force, as if a truck had hit me,” said Mike, who suffered great pain from the hit. But it was the Lions’ player who got the worst of it. He lay on the ground and couldn’t move a bit. The trainers and coaches ran to his side. Five minutes later, he still couldn’t move. Game officials said that the poor teen had lost all feelings on his left side and an ambulance had been called. “I was really scared at that time,” said Mike.
The doctors then arrived, and soon after, a call to a medical transport helicopter was made. That’s when the Lions’ coach walked across the filed and told the Eagles’ coach Jay that his players were too upset to continue the game and they would give up. Jay then gathered his team members and told them it was time to support their opponent. “It was the right thing to do,” said Jay. “In life, the well-being of others is what’s important, not the scoreboard.” All the Eagles agreed.
After the injured player was sent to a hospital, the two teams
took the field again. With the end zone and the Eagles’ first victory extremely close, the team’s center snapped the ball(开球), the quarterback and his teammates took a knee, and the game clock hit zero. Game over.
The injured player now is out of the hospital and recovering, which is a relief to the Eagles, who have never regretted their decision. “What my players did was amazing,” said Jay. “I was surprised and encouraged that they were thinking not about themselves but about others.”
55. Why would the Lions want to give up?
A. They were losing the game B. They thought the game was unfair
C. Some of their players went to hospital D. They were worried about the injured player
56. How would Jay probably feel in the end?
A. Upset B. Proud C. Regretful D. Excited
57. This text is probably taken from _______________.
A. a research paper B. a movie review C. a newspaper report D. a guide book
C
We are first asked the question “what do you want to be when you grow up?” when we’re about five years old. The truth is that no one really cares what you say when you’re that age. However, this question gets asked again and again as we get older. While this question inspires kids to dream about what they could be, it does not inspire them to dream about all that they could be. In fact, it does just the opposite, because when someone asks you what you want to be, you can’t reply with 20 different things, though well-meaning adults will likely chuckle and be like, “Oh, how cute, but you can’t be a violin maker and a psychologist. You have to choose.”
But what if you’re someone who isn’t wired this way? What if there are a lot of different subjects that you’re curious about, and many different things you want to do? If so, what you are is a multipotentialite.
A multipotentialite is someone with many interests and creative pursuits(追求). It might help if you break it up into three parts: multi, potential, and ite. It’
s easy to see your multipotentialite as a limitation that you need to overcome, but there are some great advantages to being this way.
The first is idea synthesis(综合性); that is, combining two or more fields and creating something new at the intersection. Innovation happens at the intersections. That’s where the new ideas come from.
The second strength is rapid learning. When multipotentialites become interested in something they go hard. They observe everything they can get their hands on. They’re also used to being beginners, because they’ve been beginners so many times in the past years. Thus they’re less afraid of trying new things and stepping out of the comfort zones.
The third is adaptability; that is, the ability to move into whatever you need to be in a given situation. Abe Cajudo is sometimes a video director, sometimes a web designer, sometimes a Kickstarter consultant, and sometimes, apparently, James Bond. He is valuable because he does good work. He’s even more valuable because he can play various roles, depending on his clients’ needs. Fast Company magazine identified adaptability as the single most important skill to develop in order to thrive in the 21st century.
Multipotentialites are very good at these three skills, and they might lose the skills if pressured to narrow their focus. As a society, we have benefited from encouraging multipotentialites to be themselves.
In fact, some of the best teams include a specialist and multipotentialite paired together. The specialist can dive in deep and carry out ideas, while the mumltipotentialite brings a wide range of knowledge to the project. So embrace your inner wiring. If you’re a specialist at heart, then by all means, specialize. But to the multipotentialite, follow your curiosity down those rabbit holes and explore your intersections.
58. It can be learned from the first paragraph that _____________.
A. adults don’t remember their dreams B. adults don’t understand children’s dreams
C. children should have big dreams at early age D. children should be curious
about many subjects
59. According to the passage, a multipotentialite is likely to _______.
A. take challenges B. narrow his focus
C. dive in deep ideas D. stay in comfort zones
60. Abe Cajudo is mentioned in Paragraph 6 to show ____________.
A. what roles he can play B. how successful his career is
C. what a muitipotentialite likes D. how adaptable a multipotentialite is
61. What is the writer’s attitude towards multipotentialites?
A. Unclear B. Positive C. Doubtful D. Critical
D
Why should people spend their valuable “free time” reading fiction, the purpose of which, at best, is only entertainment? We recognize that some novels are entertaining, but leave no lasting impression. What makes a novel more than entertainment?
Our answer is that we don’t just read great books----they read us as well. The human condition is complex and contradictory(矛盾的), layered like an ice-cream, with flavors blending(混合)among the layers. A great novel reflects that complexity. We may read it several times, as we do with our favorites, and each time it is like finding an old friend and gaining new insights from that friend. We put it down with new understandings of the world around us and, most important, of ourselves.
Let’s look at the novel Frankenstein, written in 1818 by Mary Shelley. Frankenstein is a young man who is impatient to seek out the secrets of the universe. He collects body parts, assembles an eight-foot creature, and charges it with life. When the yellow eyes open, however, Frankenstein is shocked. He abandons the creature, which is laughed at and attacked. It becomes angry and ends up as a monster.
On one level, Frankenstein is entertaining—a good horror story, though a little dated when compared, for example, to Stephen King’s best sellers like the Dark Tower series. But Shelley writes more than just scary entertainment.
On a deeper level, her book forces us to ask whether humans reach too far in playing God. Genetic engineering(基因工程)already enables us to change the food we eat and
the very bodies in which we live. At what point are we trying to take over God’s creativity, to gain knowledge that is as forbidden as the fruit of the Garden of Eden?
Shelley, of course, knew nothing of genetic engineering. But she did know that the Industrial Revolution was sweeping across England and ambitions for scientific progress were intense in the eighteenth and early nineteenth century. She was deeply troubled by what human beings might discover about themselves, and the effects of those discoveries on society.
Our reading of great literature can also be enriched by understanding the author’s personal interests and anxieties. Shelley was only eighteen when she wrote Frankenstein. Birth and death are closely linked in her prose and in her experiences. Her mother had died giving birth to her, and by the time she began writing this great novel, she herself had already had two babies out of marriage. One had died within a few weeks. The novel reflects her deep anxieties about giving birth and her fears that birth will bring death.
62. According to the passage, reading fictions _____________.
A. may make our life simple B. may bring back long-lost friends
C. can get rid of our contradictory ideas D. can deepen our understanding of ourselves
63. The underlined word “assemble” in Paragraph 3 probably means ____________.
A. to create something interesting B. to develop something unusual
C. to explore the unknown secrets D. to put together the separate parts
64. By reading Frankenstein, _____________.
A. we may reach the point to play God B. we may get to eat the forbidden fruit
C. we get more than scary entertainment D. we learn more about genetic engineering
65. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. Why People Read Fictions B. How Fictions are Written
C. Fictions and Entertainment D. Fictions and Wisdom

Possible version 1:
On behalf of our class, I’d like to introduce our class logo to your. Specifically, it consists of three images: the sea and a sailing boat. The sailing boat is heading for its destination at full speed on the wavy sea with the sun rising above the horizon in the background.
The design is rich in meaning, which in turn mirrors the image of our class. As you can see, the whole class is forging ahead to our goal and our bright future steadily and smoothly as the sailing boat indicates. However, there is more to it. The voyage to our destination may not always be smooth since the sea may get wavy and wind will be against, but we will face the waves and the storm bravely and try our best to get the boat on its track and to its destination. As senior students, we will come across many challenges along the way to pursue our dreams, such as obstacles in study, or interpersonal relationships, but we will always face them and tackle them unwaveringly. That’s exactly the spirit of our class and the spirit we hope each of us can carry with us during our lifetime. With the spirit, we also believe each one of us will be growing healthy and optimistically under the warm sunshine.
I am sure you will feel in person what the class logo symbolizes in this aspiring and unwavering family. Hope you enjoy your stay with us. Thank you!
Possible version 2:
Ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to our class. What you are looking at is our class logo, which is made up of the sea, a sail and the sun. the sea is a symbol of our life, the sun is our hope and direction, while the sail can be compared to ourselves. The logo carries our hope that we will sail through the sea of our life smoothly. Of course, we understand that life won’t be easy, therefore we hope we will always have the courage and strength to face whatever comes in our way.
Hope you enjoy your stay with us. Thank you!
