第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分 40 分）2019 年 12 月
第 3 页 共 12 页
第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 30 分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
If you’ve been to Europe a few times already, chances are that you’ve hit
all the big destinations : London, Paris, Rome, Berlin. On your next trip you can
either visit those same cities a second time, or instead you can take a chance and
walk the streets of some cities that are a little bit smaller, a little bit less famous,
but still full of European grace and charm. Here are four European cities to visit
that you probably haven’t been to yet.
Besancon, France
This hidden French city has had a long reputation for being a well-kept
secret. It can be at once sleepy with few tourists but abundant galleries,
restaurants, and a wonderful Be aux Arts museum whose collection is second
only to the Louvre. The city is wound by the River Daubs and also touts (吹捧)
its own UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Citadel, home to several small
museums and a zoo.
Seville, Spain
For the tourist w ho is already tired of Barcelona and Madrid, Seville offers
a different take ( 意 见 ) on Spain. Located on the Southern coast, it keeps
beautiful signs of the long period of Moorish rule, now here more than in the
Alcázar palace building, just one of the city’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Seville has over a dozen museums, tropical parkland, and probably the best
tapas (餐前小吃) culture in all of Spain.
Ghent, Belgium
Ghent is a city that looks like it should be the setting for a fairy tale. All of
the typical Belgium features abound here-waffles and beer. Every year from
Saturday before July 21. Ghent hosts a ten-day festival. This music and theater
festival draws almost 2 million visitors, as the city streets transform into
performance spaces for performers,buskers ( 街头 艺 人 )and musicians.
Palermo, Italy
Palermo is the capital city of Sicily, the southern island off the coast of
mainland Italy. The city has an ancient history, and the various cultures that
have controlled the island through the years have all left their marks on it. You
can see winding street markets, antique ( 古玩) fairs, and open air nightclubs
here.
21.Where can visitors enjoy art collections quietly?
A. Besancon. B. Barcelona. C. Ghent. D. Palermo.2019 年 12 月
第 4 页 共 12 页
22.What can visitors do in Seville, Spain?

C. Explore over 20 museums. D.Hunt for Moorish influences.
23.Which country should a music and theater lover choose to visit?
A. France. B. Spain C. Belgium. D. Italy.
24.What do the four European cities have in common?
A. They w ere once ruled by various rulers.
B. They are less famous but worth a visit.
C. Visitors can enjoy seeing performances.
D. They're all UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
B
Everywhere I look outside my home I see people busy on their high-tech
devices, while driving, walking, shopping, even sitting in toilets, When
connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.
People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey
reported that “addicted" was the word most commonly used by people to
describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. One study found that
people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for
sleep,cigarettes and alcohol.
The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more
money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life.
They have successfully created a cultural disease. Consumers willingly give up
their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep
pace with their peers (同龄人) or to appear modern.
I see people trapped in a pathological ( 病 态 的 ) relationship with
time-sucking technology, where they serve technology more than technology
serves them. I call this technology servitude.
I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of
uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money.
What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question.
Who is really in charge of my life? That is what people need to ask themselves
if they are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of
technology.When we can live happily without using so much technology for a
day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the
master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of
technology. Mae West is famous for proclaiming (宣告) the wisdom that “too
much of a good thing is wonderful.” But it's time to discover that it does not 2019 年 12 月

work for technology.
Richard Fernandez, an executive coach at Google acknowledged that “we
can be swept away by our technologies.”To break the grand digital connection
people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic Without today's
overused technology.
25.The underlined word “allure” in Paragraph 2 probably means
A.advantage B.attraction C.adaption D. attempt
26.According to the text, what is the aim of technology companies?
A.To attract people to buy their products.
B.To improve people`s quality of life.
C.To provide the latest information.
D. To deal with cultural diseases.
27.What can be inferred from this text?
A. People consider too much technology wonderful.
B.People have realized the harm of high-tech devices.
C.People can lose freedom without high-tech devices.
D. People may enjoy life better without overused technology.
28.What is the author’s attitude towards the overusing of high-tech devices?
A.Supportive. B.Unbelieving. C.Disapproving. D. Sympathetic
C
I believe influence is the union of power and purpose. As a TV star,
magazine founder, businesswoman and celebrity, Oprah Winfrey certainly has
power. But most importantly,she has purpose — a lasting commitment to the
principles or goodness and generosity that goes beyond any one individual. I
have sat with Oprah in interviews and in my home. I have felt her warmth, and I
am always moved by her deep love for others. She makes you want to invite her
into your life — and she invites you into hers.
Oprah’s story is America's story: a young girl from Mississippi,who grew
up without electricity or running water but realized her promise through
education and achieved her dreams in liberty. Oprah reminds us that we who
prosper (繁盛) in freedom have a moral responsibility to help others who have
the desire to succeed but just need an opportunity. Oprah is helping create those
opportunities. Out of her own pocket, she built new homes — and gave new
hope — to 65 families who lost everything in Hurricane Katrina. And just two
years ago, Oprah launched ( 开 展 ) a successful campaign to help victims of
abuse find the justice they deserve, so they can move on with confidence.
For most people,Oprah's influence is less direct but no less meaningful. 2019 年 12 月
第 6 页 共 12 页
Those are the millions of ordinary men and women who wish to improve
themselves — to become better parents, kinder friends and stronger individuals.
For those people,Oprah is an inspiration. She has struggled with many of the
challenges that we all face, and she has transformed her life.Her message is
powerful: I did it, and so can you. So who, then, is Oprah Winfrey? She is a
woman of moral character and a source of strength for millions of her admirers.
Her life and her work are evidence to the greatness of her generous heart. She is
influential,to be sure. And she is someone I am deeply honored to call my
friend.
29.What’s the purpose of the author’s writing the passage?
A.introduce Oprah Winfrey as a friend and her shows
B.summarize the whole life of Oprah Winfrey
C. show her encouragement to Oprah Winfrey
D. show her appreciation of Oprah Winfrey
30. Which of the following story is America’s story in the author’s eyes?
A. Rich young girls from Mississippi gain success in their life.
B. Poor young girls achieve their success through hard work.
C. Poor young men pursue higher education but get nothing.
D. Rich young men experience hardship and win success.
31. What does the underlined part “I did it” in the last paragraph probably
mean?

B. I created many opportunities to help people.
C. I managed to overcome the challenges.
D. I was admired as a source of strength.
D
People with high IQs are more likely to smoke marijuana (大麻) and take
other illegal drugs, compared with those who score lower on intelligence tests,
according to a new study from the UK.
“It's beyond my expectation,” says lead author James White of the Center
for the Development and Evaluation of Complex Interventions for Public Health
Improvement at Cardiff University in Wales. “It's not what we thought we
would find.”
The research was based on interviews with some 7,900 British people born
in early April 1970.Researchers measured the participants' IQs at ages 5 and 10,
then followed up with them at ages 16 and 30, asking about symptoms of
psychological distress (痛苦) and drug use as part of a larger survey.2019 年 12 月
第 7 页 共 12 页
At age 30, about 35% of men and 16% of women said they had smoked
marijuana at least once in the previous year; over the same time period, 9% of
men and 4% of women said they had taken cocaine, Previous-year drug users
tended to have scored higher on IQ tests than non-users.
The IQ effect was larger in women: Women in the top third of the 1Q
range at age 5 were more than twice as likely to have taken marijuana or
cocaine by age 30, compared with those scoring in the bottom third. The men
with the highest IQs were nearly 50% more likely to have taken amphetamines
(安非他命) and 65% more likely to have taken ecstasy (摇头丸),compared to
those with lower scores.
And these results held even when researchers controlled for factors like
social status and psychological distress, which are also linked with rates of drug
use.
So why might smarter kids be more likely to try drugs?“People with high
IQs are more likely to score high on personality scales of openness to
experience,” says White. “They may be more willing to experiment and seek out
fresh experiences.”
Another factor could be that the messages used to attempt to stop teens
from drug use — particularly during the1980s in the UK when the study group
was in adolescence — weren't exactly known for the subtlety (细微的差别) of
their reasoning, so they may not have targeted the smarter group well.
32.How did the researchers get the result?
A.They made a questionnaire survey.
B. They interviewed a group of people at several certain ages.
C. They made a secret investigation on the drug users.
D.They studied the data that they found in the book.
33. Why are people with high IQs more likely to take drugs?
A.They are unwilling to communicate with others.
B.They want to experiment on themselves.
C. They can't make their ability known.
D.They want to look for excitement.
34.According to the text, which of the following is NOT a factor that causes
drug abuse?
A. Social status. B.Psychological distress.
C.Physical problems. D. IQ
35. What is the author’s attitude to the drug users?
A.Not mentioned. B.Critical. C.Supportive. D.Careful2019 年 12 月

Life Lessons for Kids
Forget the Mom guilt.The following two lessons are easy to pass on to
your family. In fact, you’ve probably ingrained ( 使 根 深 蒂 園 ) both of them
already! But it never hurts to think over how well your kids are bearing them.
▲ Eat dinner together.
36 Research from The Children's Nutrition Research Center at
Baylor College of Medicine in Dallas revealed that kids who had family meals
with their parents ate lower-fat foods. 37 In a Spanish study of 282
teenagers, those who shared at least five family meals a week suffered less
anxiety and depression, regardless of their parents' education level.
A weeknight meal doesn't have to be the result of your slaving in the
kitchen for hours for a perfect dinner. 38 Turn up the nutrition on
canned soups by adding frozen vegetables and canned chicken.
▲Move every day.
These days, it seems like the only exercise many kids get is with their
thumbs. 39 So, it's up to parents to show their kids how good it feels
to get moving.Studies have shown that when kids see their parents enjoying
exercise, they're more likely to want to do it, too. 40 It happens
everywhere. Just have fun!
A. Fruits are their first choice.
B. And they also ate more fruits and vegetables.
C. Moreover,exercise doesn't have to be in a gym.
D. Try your best to avoid frozen vegetables and low-fat food.
E. There's no need to tell you that dining together is good for your kids.
F.Computers have replaced backyard time and many schools have cut gym
class.
G. For crazy nights, bring home healthy fast food or microwave-in-the-bag
vegetables.

Dear Happy,
I am more than delighted to hear from you again. I am writing to share
with you my thoughts about how we can keep happy and healthy when
growing up. Here comes my advice.
To begin with, as a proverb goes, a nutritionally balanced diet in daily life
is crucial, since it lays a solid foundation for good health. Besides, workout on a
regular basis can also be of great benefit to build up a strong body. Therefore,
get moving regularly and properly. Additionally, as we all know, we will
unavoidably meet with some tough problems throughout the whole
growing-up. So it is a must to hold a positive attitude towards them and
communicate with your teachers parents as well as your friends.
Hopefully, my advice above can be of some help to you. I do believe that
we all can grow up to be happy and healthy both mentally and physically.
