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
These days having a best friend seems so important to girls. However I have learned that having one best friend is not the way to go. It’s so much better to have many great friends.
As I was coming into middle school, I was really excited because my friend Jennifer was going to be in the same middle school! At first things were great, she introduced me to her friend Amy and we had lots of fun
together. Then things started to change. Jennifer was very controlling: I couldn’t make new friends, and pretty soon being Jennifer’s friend was a struggle.
Jennifer wanted to be the “leader” of our little group. Amy and I were never partners with each other in class projects or gym; it was always, “Who gets the privilege(特权) of being Jennifer’s partner? ” Amy and I both wanted to be Jennifer’s number one.
I always waited for Jennifer and Amy after class. They chatted by Jennifer’s desk as Jennifer packed her books up and I waited by the door. Sometimes when they left, they’d walk right past me. No “Thanks for waiting. ” No “Sorry we took so long. ” It was as if they couldn’t even see me.
After months of living through school this way, I had really changed. I was moody, depressed, lonely. I spent lots of days trying not to cry, I felt so left out.
Finally, near the very end of the school year, I was so incredibly sick of having to battle for friendship. I stopped sitting with Jennifer at lunch and stopped waiting for her after class.
It was tough at first, but now, I have tons of friends. We have fun and happy times together and I love them all to bits. It amazes me how easy our friendship is. There’s no struggling to be on top. I wish Jennifer could understand. Maybe one day she’ll look back at what happened and
she’ll change, but even though I lost a friend, I am a happier person.
【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文, 作者通过讲述与Jennifer之间的故事告诉我们不应该只有一个最好的朋友, 而应该有很多好朋友。
21. What is the purpose of the writer writing this passage?
A. To describe her school life.
B. To talk about the way Jennifer treated her friends.
C. To advise girls to make many friends instead of one.
D. To show her regret towards losing a friend.

B
When you choose a friend, you should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).
Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a
good listener.
At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (过错) in others. He notices their good points. In short, good friends will be honest to each other and accept each other.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor , too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I’ve found a friend!
【文章大意】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲了好朋友需要具有的一些品质: 理解、诚实和可靠。
24. Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend?
A. honesty B. understanding
C. reliability D. a sense of humor

C
A mother goat is able to pick out her own baby from its voice alone by the time the kid is just five days old.
Researchers from University of London played kids’ bleats to female goats and studied their responses. They were surprised to find that the animals were able to pick out their own kids’ voices.
“A mother and the kid rely a lot on smell to recognize one another and, in the wild, during the first week of their lives, the animals hide in grass and don’t call much. It’s a strategy they use to avoid enemies, ” Dr. Elodie Briefer, who led the research, explained to BBC News. “The mother calls to the kids when she wants them to come and feed, so we expected that kids would recognize the mothers’ voices. ” In fact, this was the case for deer, which also use this hiding strategy, although
they do not belong to the same family of species as goats.
She and her team recorded and played back young kids’ calls to the female goats and recorded their responses. She explained, “Even when the calls came from kids that are five to six days old, we could see the mothers responding more to the voices of their own babies. ” Hearing the voice of their own kids, the females would look towards the speaker that the sound was coming from, moving around and calling in response.
The scientists say that understanding how goats behave and communicate is very important. “This helps us understand just how smart these animals are, ” said Dr. Briefer. “Farmers might be able to change their way to raise goats considering this natural behaviour. ”
【文章大意】这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了母山羊能够从小山羊宝宝发出的叫声中分辨出自己的孩子。
28. What does the underlined word “bleats” mean?
A. habits B. voices
C. responses D. videos
【解析】选B。词义猜测题。由第二段可知, 来自伦敦大学的研究人员对母山羊播放小羊的叫声, 并研究它们的反应。他们惊讶地发现, 这些动物能够分辨出自己孩子的声音。所以划线单词“bleats”是voices“声音”的意思。
29. During the first few days of the baby deer, the mother and the kid mainly depend on to recognize each other when they are
hiding in grass.
A. voice B. touch
C. videos D. smell
【解析】选D。细节理解题。由第三段“A mother and the kid rely a lot on smell to recognize one another and, in the wild, during the first week of their lives. . . In fact, this was the case for deer. . . ”可知, 在小羊出生的第一周, 在野外时, 羊妈妈和小羊依靠气味来彼此识别对方。事实上鹿也是这种情况。所以在小鹿出生的几天内, 母鹿和小鹿躲在草丛里, 主要靠气味来辨认对方。
30. In the experiment, what does a mother goat do when hearing her kids’ voice?
A. Making voice in response.
B. Jumping over and over.
C. Hiding herself somewhere.
D. Behaving just as usual.
【解析】选A。细节理解题。由第四段“Hearing the voice of their own kids, the females would look towards the speaker that the sound was coming from, moving around and calling in response. ”可知, 听到自己孩子的声音时, 母羊会看着发出声音的扬声器, 四处走动, 并以叫声做出回应。所以在实验中, 母羊听到自己孩子的声音时, 会以声音回应。
31. The passage is mainly written for to read.
A. teachers B. writers
C. farmers D. lawyers
【解析】选C。推理判断题。由最后一段“Farmers might be able to change their way to raise goats considering this natural behaviour. ”可知, 考虑到羊的这种自然行为, 农民也许可以改变他们养羊的方式。所以判断出, 这篇短文主要是写给农民, 供他们阅读的。

Snowbirds are people who leave their homes when the temperature drops and head to warmer climates. They are mostly retirees(退休人员) and business owners who can afford to take the winter off. While the snow flies in the Northern states, they are enjoying golf, sailing and barbecues in mild temperatures in the South. Then, after winter passes, they return to their homes in the North.
Most snowbirds are away from Canada and the Northern states between the middle of October and the end of November. They pack up and head to Florida, Alabama, Texas, California, and all of the other Southern states. Some may even go as far as Australia or Italy to escape the cold winter weather. There are special communities(社区) for snowbirds in many areas. Snowbirds are also offered special discounts(折扣) in some restaurants, hotels and area attractions. Several states even have special snowbird resorts (度假胜地). There are several online communities and local resources to help snowbirds get set in their seasonal homes.
Some snowbirds own homes both in the South and in the North. Both homes have everything they will need for their stay, minimizing(最小化) the amount of packing necessary when moving from one to the other. Other snowbirds will rent apartments for their stay outside their home state.
RVs(房车), are a huge part of the snowbird lifestyle. RVs allow snowbirds to move from place to place on a whim (奇想), bringing everything they need with them. They spend nights in RV parks, large parking lots or anywhere else they choose to stay. RVs have beds, bathrooms, and most other modern conveniences available in a regular home. Although the space is small, there is more than enough room for a couple to live in.
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一群人被称为“snowbirds”, 介绍了他们的生活方式。

A. the Internet makes it easier for snowbirds to find seasonal homes
B. snowbirds are not welcome in many areas
C. snowbirds have to stay in special communities
D. it’s not convenient to live as a snowbird
【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第二段的最后两句Several states even have special snowbird resorts. There are several online communities and local resources to help snowbirds get set in their seasonal homes. 可知, 有几个网上在线社区和当地的资源能帮助snowbirds在所到的暖和的地方找到seasonal homes。由此可判断出: 在网络的帮助下他们很容易找到seasonal homes, 因此A正确。
34. RVs allow snowbirds to .
A. avoid the heavy traffic
B. carry everything they have at home
C. have a comfortable life wherever they are
D. save more money than renting an apartment
【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据最后一段可知, 对snowbirds的生活的具体的介绍, 由此可判断出房车让“snowbirds”无论到哪里, 都可以舒服地生活。

第二节 概要写作(满分25分)
阅读下面的短文, 根据其内容写一篇60词左右的概要。
In 1878, when Margaret Wolfe Hungerford wrote “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”, she was stating that there was no consistent (never changing) view on beauty. Standards of beauty change across time and cultural groups.
Traditions and fashions, like society itself, change and adapt with time. So it is reasonable that our ideas of beauty change as well. In 19th-century Europe, women used to wear corsets to achieve a body
shape that is no longer considered healthy. Men would wear woolen shawls across their shoulders. It is hard to imagine that they would be seen as attractive in the 21st century. Nowadays, in the western world, one in every ten people has a tattoos or a form of body art. In the past, some cultures used tattoos as an addition to costumes, to show family associations or to mark criminals so that they could easily be recognized.
In contemporary society, culture remains a major part in determining our ideas of beauty. In some countries, young women follow slimming diets to lose extra kilos in preparation for their wedding day. In other cultures, looking thin for a husband-to-be is not what a woman desires at all—rather, looking a little overweight is considered more attractive.
With the influence of history, society and culture, there are no precise criteria which can be used to judge what is beautiful. Life long commitment and, indeed, the survival of society itself rely on people seeing beauty in difference and depth. The human race would soon die out if we could only see beauty within a set of limited criteria.
Physical beauty must also be accompanied by an attraction to something deeper within a person. This particular kind of attraction is found in a wide range of personal qualities, e. g. kindness, warmth, a healthy conscience, etc. Judging the appeal of a person’s inner beauty is much more subjective. It takes more than a casual glance to appreciate
and it is much more important than physical beauty.
Beauty, therefore, has more than one dimension. We are influenced by our culture, our biology and our time in history to notice physical beauty quickly and easily, but it is inner beauty that requires us to truly see. Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder.
