第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)
第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5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
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.
22．What does the sentence “Then_things_started_to_change” (Paragraph 2) refer to?
A．The writer lost interest in study.
B．Being Jennifer's friend became a struggle.
C．Lessons became more and more difficult.
D．The writer gave up the friendship with Jennifer.
23．What can be implied from the last paragraph?
A．All of the writer's new friends are equal.
B．The writer regretted a lot about losing a friend.
C．Jennifer has changed herself.
D．The school life is always difficult for the writer.
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 fairweather 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!
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
25．If you have fairweather friends, ________.
A．you will become rich
B．you can be sure that you get real friends
C．you will be refused when you get into trouble
D．they will give you all that they have when you need help
26．Good friends need to ________.
A．understand each other's feelings
B．be helped with money
C．always point out each other's mistakes
D．have money or luck
27．This passage mainly discusses ________.
A．the importance of having a friend
B．where to choose friends
C．how to get along with friends
D．the qualities of a friend
C
Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son. Suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut，” Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14yearold daughter. “She used to cuddle up (依偎) against me on the sofa and talk，” said Mark.“Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is understanding which time is which.”
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's on their mind. “In fact, parents are first on the list，” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years，” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”
Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental (思想的) break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.
28．“The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son ________.
A．keeps himself away from his parents
B．begins to dislike his parents
C．is always busy with his study
D．doesn't want to be ignored
29．What troubles Tina and Mark most is that ________.
A. their daughter isn't as lovely as before
B．they don't know what to say to their daughter
C．they can't read their daughter's mind exactly
D．their daughter talks with them only when she needs help
30．Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?
A．Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.
B．Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.
C．Teenagers do not understand their parents.
D．Teenagers talk little about their own lives.
31．What can we learn from the passage?
A．Parents are unhappy with their growing children.
B．Parents have to talk with children face to face.
C．Parents shouldn't be angry with teenagers.
D．Parents should try to understand their teenagers.
D
Do you jump out of bed early, wide awake and ready to start your day? If so, you would be called an “early bird”. Perhaps, you hate the sound of your alarm clock (闹钟) each morning and have little energy until afternoon. If so, you're probably a “night owl”．
Most people can be divided into such two groups, but what makes us this way? And is one better than the other? There are different opinions.
Usually, early risers are praised as hardworking while those who prefer to get up late are considered lazy. Most_people_believe_the_early_bird_catches_the_worm.
Yet some scientists now believe “night owls” can really focus longer and produce more than early risers.
Research has found that the early bird does not always get the worm. In a Belgian study, both “morning people” and “evening people” were watched during their normal waking hours. After 10 hours of being awake, the “evening people” became more alert (机敏的). However, the “morning people” became sleepy and less focused. Researchers believe the reason for this difference is that “night owls” receive a lastminute increase from their brains. This added energy allows them to stay alert for longer periods of time.
Environment, lifestyle, activities and childhood routines all may have an effect on sleeping habits, yet genetics (遗传学) may play the biggest role.
It is possible to change your sleeping habits through regular bedtime, morning exercise and avoiding midnight snacks. But whether you're happy to rise early or to stay up late, you're probably doing what works best for your own personal body clock.
32．How does the author introduce the subject?
A．By telling an interesting story.
B．By giving different opinions.
C．By showing research results.
D．By asking questions.
33．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 really mean?
A．Most people believe those who get up early achieve their goals.
B．Most people believe early to bed and early to rise is good for health.
C．Most people believe “night owls” can focus longer than “early birds”．
D．Most people believe “early birds” are as hardworking as “night owls”．
34．What did the researchers find in a Belgian study?
A．Late risers become sleepier than early risers.
B．Early risers become as focused as later risers.
C．Late risers can think more quickly after being awake for 10 hours.
D．Early risers can think more clearly after being awake for 10 hours.
35．What opinion does the author finally agree to?
A．People should get up early.
B．Do things that suit you best.
C．Staying up late is good for health.
D．It's impossible to change one's sleeping habit.

Signs of Healthy Friendships
Once in a while it's helpful to see if your friendship is as healthy as it can be. You might get used to a friendship over time to the point where you don't see room for improvement. And since great friendships are priceless, you should always surround yourself with the kind of people who will lift your spirits, make you laugh, and remind (提醒) you that you are loved. __36__ Here are characteristics (特征) that strong friendships share.
__37__
Friends make you feel comfortable with yourself, so you don't need to act like someone you're not. Your friends know your shortcomings and love you anyway. You are perhaps the “best version” of yourself when you're with your friends.
A healthy friendship includes plenty of gentle honesty. True friends won't pretend just to avoid an argument (争论). __38__ As a result, you'll know where you stand with your friends and won't be afraid to share your true opinions.
They argue in a healthy way.
One of the biggest misunderstandings about good friends is that they never fight. But let's face it: everyone fights. __39__ In fact, voicing your opinions freely will cause you to disagree from time to time and that's okay.
Healthy friendships mean you can be friends with someone else, too.
__40__That's why great friends will improve your relationship, yet still encourage you to meet people and try new things without them. A healthy friendship means that sometimes the two of you spend time apart, and that's okay.
A．Arguing isn't unhealthy.
B．Is your friendship as healthy as it can be?
C．Good friends dine out together from time to time.
D．Good friends are real and honest with each other.
E．With an unhealthy friendship, you know clearly that something is “off”．
F．Even if you have the best friend, it doesn't hurt to expand your social circle.
G．In a positive friendship, your friends won't lie to you, and they won't hurt your feelings either.

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 19thcentury Europe, women used to wear corsets (紧身内衣) 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 husbandtobe 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 (标准) 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 (良知), 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.

Second, you can buy local fruits and vegetables. This not only supports farmers in your area but helps the environment.
Third, remember to turn lights off. You don't need those lights to be on when you're not in the room. I believe your parents have been telling you this for years.And the heating doesn't need to be on for months.
Fourth, save water. Keep an eye on how long your showers last. A lot of water is wasted just by one person. So take a quick shower instead of wasting water.
Fifth, if you have some extra money, you can give it to Cool Earth and protect trees.
Now please turn to page 183. Read the text and get ready to answer my questions.
第二部分
第一节
A
【语篇解读】 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．答案与解析：C 主旨大意题。根据第一段“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.”可知作者认为我们不应该只有一个最好的朋友，而应该有很多好朋友。
22．答案与解析：B 句意理解题。根据画线句后文“Jennifer was very controlling：I couldn't make new friends, and pretty soon being Jennifer's friend was a struggle.”可知Jennifer控制欲很强，导致我无法交新朋友。最终和她做朋友变得很困难。情况开始发生变化，故B项正确。
23．答案与解析：A 推理判断题。根据最后一段前两句“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.”可知后来作者有很多朋友，而且作者对他们的喜爱是同样的。也就是她对所有朋友都是平等的，故A项正确。
B

32．答案与解析：D 写作手法题。根据第二段中的“Most people can be divided into such two groups, but what makes us this way? And is one better than the other? There are different opinions”可知，作者提出了问题且以此问题引出要讨论的话题。故D项正确。
33．答案与解析：A 句意猜测题。由第四段与第五段第一句话可知，研究发现，早起的鸟儿不一定总能抓到虫子，现在一些科学家认为夜猫子比早起的人专注时间更长，创造得更多。这和上文画线部分的内容形成对比，故可知画线部分表示人们认为早起的人足够勤奋能够实现他们的目标。A项与该句语意一致，故A项正确。
34．答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据第五段第三句“After 10 hours of being awake, the ‘evening people’ became more alert(机敏的)”可知，处于醒着的状态10小时以后，夜猫子思维更敏捷了。故C项正确。

I'd appreciate it if you could do me the favor. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours，
Li Hua
