第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分60分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题3分，满分45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
Dear friends, still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a mere wall away from your college.
King’s Art Centre
A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.
You could attend a class teaching you how to “learn from the masters” or get more creative with paint—free of charge.
The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.
The Botanic Garden
The Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.
The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss.
Get to the display house to see Dionaca muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.
The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.
Byron’s Pool
Many stories surround Lord Byron’s time as a student of Cambridge University. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. I’m not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.
It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron’s Pool. A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don’t trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf, a famous writer — over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.
21. The main idea of the passage is ______.
A. interesting stories of Lord Byron B. an approach to becoming creative in art
C. the colorful life in the countryside D. some places for weekend break
22. If you are a wildlife-enthusiast, you’d better go to ______.
A. Byron’s Pool B. The Botanic Garden
C. King’s Art Centre D. Cambridgeshire
23. According to the passage, the following statements are wrong except ______.
A. there is a small charge for attending the masters’ class
B. Byron liked swimming naked in the lake
C. Byron seemed to like keeping pet bears
D. Hissing Sid and Flytrap are impressive animals
24. The author’s purpose in mentioning Virginia Woolf is to show ______.
A. she was a famous writer B. she was keen on swimming
C. she was Byron’s admirer D. Byron’s Pool is a pleasant place
B
All through my life my teacher, Mr. August J. Bachmann, was the most influential teacher I ever had.
I had gotten into trouble in his class: Another student had pushed me for fun, and I became angry and began to hit him. Mr. Bachmann stopped the fight, but instead of sending me to the office,
he sat me down and asked a simple question: “Penna, why are you wasting your life? Why aren’t you going to college?”
I didn’t know anything about colleges or scholarships. No one had ever considered that a fatherless boy from the poorest neighborhood had a future. That day, instead of rushing off for lunch, he stayed and explained possible education options to me. At the end of our talk, he sent me to see a secretary who had a child at a state college. This was in 1962 at Emerson High School in Union City, New Jersey.
Well, 53 years have passed, and what have I done with the knowledge he gave me? I gained a PhD from Fordham University when I was only 29. I taught English and social studies and then moved up the chain of command from teacher to principal（校长）.
I’ve sat on the board for Magnet Schools of America and represented that organization at the United Nations. I’ve won a number of great educational awards. But where would I be if a truly caring teacher had not taken the time out of his lunch period to speak to me? It was without question only his confidence in me that helped me forward.
I have repaid his kindness hundreds of times by encouraging misguided youngsters to aim higher. If I have saved any children, it is because of him. If I have been a successful educator, it is because I had a great role model in Mr. Bachmann.
25. Before Mr. Bachmann talked to him, the writer ______.
A. was an active boy B. liked making troubles in class
C. was an aimless boy D. would get punished by his teachers
26. Which of the following best describes Mr. Bachmann?
A. Fair. B. Confident. C. Inspiring. D. Humorous.
27. How did Mr. Bachmann influence the writer?
A. He set the writer on the right path. B. He tried to set a good example to the writer.
C. He was strict with the writer. D. He helped the writer with his study.
28. What does the writer think of his achievement?
A. He is very proud of himself.
B. He feels his effort gets paid off at last.
C. He owes his achievement to Mr. Bachmann.
D. He thinks it an honor to be a successful educator.
C
Think about what you had for lunch: Was it a hamburger? A chicken sandwich? Barbecue? What about vegetables? Would it surprise you to learn that what you eat can affect the whole planet?
It can – in a big way, New studies show how food and its production affect the globe and its warming climate. You’ve probably heard of global warming. The temperature is on the rise because humankind has been releasing（排放）amounts of gases into the atmosphere. One of these greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）.
What does this have to do with food? A big part of the carbon dioxide that we put in the atmosphere every year comes from the process of making and eating food. The production of meat contributes a lot of that carbon dioxide. And much of meat’s contribution comes from beef, which is responsible for releasing even more warming gases into the atmosphere.
The process of making a hamburger, for example, requires a lot of energy. A cow has to be fed and raised on farmland, and cow waste is a major source of methane（沼气）— an especially powerful greenhouse gas. The cow has to be killed. The meat has to be processed and shipped to a shop, which takes fuel. Most of the cow won’t even be used for meat that people eat. By the time a hamburger finally lands on a dinner plate, it has made a heavy effect on the environment. We can reduce the production of global-warming gases by eating less beef. Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken do less harm to the environment – at least in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases released.
All kinds of meat are harder on the planet than vegetables. To grow and eat a pound of potatoes, for example, sends less than one-quarter pound of carbon dioxide into the air. So changing our diet to less meat and more vegetables, as it turns out, may do the world some good.
29. The questions asked in the first paragraph are used to ______.
A. show the author’s concern about food safety B. express the author’s puzzlement at what to eat
C. introduce the topic to be discussed in the passage D. remind readers of something delicious to eat
30. What is the bad news for meat-eaters?
A. Most cows are raised not for people to eat.
B. Meat producing contributes to global warming.
C. There is a lot of carbon dioxide in the meat we eat.
D. Animals begin to die off because of global warming.
31. Which is the most environment-friendly food according to the passage?
A. Carrot. B. Beef. C. Pork. D. Chicken.
D
Four years ago, we asked ourselves: what if we could create a shopping experience with no waiting in lines and no checkout? Or could we create a physical store where customers could simply take what they want to go? Our answer to those questions is Amazon Go, where you could experience the idea of “just walk out shopping”.
Amazon Go is a new kind of store with no checkout required. We created the world’s most advanced shopping technology, so you never have to wait in line. With our “just walk out shopping” experience, simply use the Amazon Go app to enter the store, take the products you want, and go! No lines, no checkout.
Our checkout-free shopping experience is made possible by the same types of technologies used in self-driving cars: computer vision, sensor fusion, and deep learning. Our “just walk out technology” automatically detects when products are taken from or returned to the shelves and keeps track of them in your virtual cart. When you’re done shopping, you can just leave the store. Shortly after, we’ll charge your Amazon account and send you a receipt.
We offer delicious ready-to-eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack options made fresh every day by our on-site chefs and favorite local kitchens and bakeries. Our selection of foodstuff ranges from bread and milk to cheeses and locally made chocolates. You’ll find well-known brands we love, plus special finds we’re excited to introduce to customers. For a quick home-cooked dinner, pick up one of our chef-designed Amazon Meal Kits, and you can make a meal for two in about 30 minutes.
Our 1,800-square-foot shopping space is conveniently compact（紧凑的）, so busy customers can get in and out fast. It is located at 2131, 7th Ave, Seattle, WA, on the corner of 7th Avenue and Blanohard Street. All you need is an Amazon account, a supported smart phone, and the free Amazon Go app.
Amazon Go is currently only open to Amazon employees in our testing program, and will be open to the public soon.
32. From the passage, we can learn that Amazon Go ______.
A. is a checkout-free store B. sells all kinds of goods
C. is open to the public D. uses unknown technologies

34. Customers pay for the products from Amazon Go by ______.

If you’re in your 20s or even 30s, you might feel a lot of uncertainly all the time. you may be not sure what your life purpose is. 36 This is normal.
We all want to have a certain life purpose. We all want to feel we’re on the right path. We all want to perfect our habits, our routines, or our productivity. We all want to feel more certain, and perfect in what we’re doing.
There is a struggle between the comfort of certainly and perfection and the fear of uncertainty and being suboptimal（不最理想的）.
Let me let you in on a secret: no one is free from this struggle. Look at the most successful people you can think of – Bill Gates, Obama, Taylor Swift. 37 Do you think they have certainly and a feeling of reaching perfection? Not a chance. There is not one of us alive, not me or anyone else, who ever feels certainly about their purpose or path. If they do, they’re fooling themselves. 38
No one ever feels they’ve found the perfect productivity routine, the perfect version of themselves. 39
We all feel uncertainly all day, and we all struggle with it. Some people have grown more
comfortable with it than others, but in general no one likes uncertainty.
40 That’s perfectly OK, perfectly normal. Don’t run from it. instead, stay with this uncomfortable, unappealing uncertainty. It’s here in you, a part of this moment, a part of you but not the whole of you.
A. Because it doesn’t exist.
B. Do you think they have it all figured out?
C. This uncertainty you’re feeling is unpleasant.
D. But if they’re honest, they don’t feel that certainty.
E. See if you can tell what you’re being uncertain about.
F. So focus on what you actually have right in front of you.
G. You may be uncertain about what path you should take in life.

One possible version:
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Li Hua from Nanyang High School. As far as I am concerned, helping the pupils in World Foreign Language School with their Chinese study will be good for both the primary-school students as well as the high-school students, which will result in great social benefits.
I am qualified for this job, because I am out-going, independent in life and have a good command of Chinese .This is why I want to apply for the position. I hope I can join in the instructive activity. I plan to communicate with the pupils first to get what they need. Besides, I will try to make them more interested in Chinese by telling stories, singing songs, playing games and so on. I would appreciate it if you could offer me this opportunity.
Looking forward to your reply!
Yours,
Li Hua
