第三部分:阅读理解(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、D 四个选项中选出最佳答案, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
IKEA is the world’s largest furniture retailer, and the man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad, one of the world’s
most successful enterprisers. Born in Sweden in 1926, Kamprad was a natural businessman. As a child, he
enjoyed selling things and made small profits from selling matches, seeds, and pencils in his community. When
Kamprad was 17, his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades. Naturally he used it to start up
a business—IKEA.
IKEA’s name comes from Kamprad’s initials (I.K.) and the place where he grew up (‘E’ and ‘A’). Today
IKEA is known for its modern, minimalist furniture, but it was not a furniture company in the beginning. Rather,
IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods.
Kamprad’s goods included anything that he could sell for profits at discounted prices, including watches,
pens and stockings.
IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947. The furniture was all designed
and made by manufacturers near Kamprad’s home. Initial sales were very encouraging, so Kamprad expanded the
product line.Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company
in 1951.
In 1953 IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult, Sweden. IKEA is known today for its large stores with
furniture in attractive settings, but in the early1950s, people ordered from catalogues. Thus response to the first
showroom was overwhelming: people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it. This led to
increased sales and the company continued to develop. By 1955, IKEA was designing all its own furniture.
In 1956 Kamprad saw a man disassembling(拆卸) a table to make it easier to transport. Kamprad was
inspired. The man had given him a great idea: flat packaging. Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for
IKEA and lower prices for customers. IKEA tried it and sales went up. The problem was that people had to
assemble furniture themselves, but over time, even this grew into an advantage for IKEA. Nowadays, IKEA is
often seen as having connotations(内涵) of self-sufficiency. This image has done wonders for the company,
leading to better sales and continued expansion.
Today there are over 200 stores in 32 countries. Amazingly, Ingvar Kamprad has managed to keep IKEA a
privately-held company. In 2004 he was named the world’s richest man. He currently lives in Switzerland and is
retired from the day-to-day operations of IKEA. IKEA itself, though, just keeps on growing.
46. The author states in Paragraph 6 that flat packaging___________.
A. needs large space to assembly furniture
B. is a business concept inspired by Kamprad
C. helps reduce transportation costs
D. makes the company self-sufficient
47. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Ingvar Kamprad is the richest man in the world.
B. IKEA is the world’s largest furniture retailer.
C. The advantage of IKEA’s furniture is dissembling.
D. Ingvar Kamprad established IKEA and led it to great success.
48. What is the author’s attitude towards IKEA’s future according to the last paragraph?
A. Indifferent B. Optimistic C. Doubtful D. Pessimistic
B
Recently the barbican museum in London held an exhibition called the rain room. During the time this
exhibition was open, my twitter stream was filled with photos of people standing in the rain room, accompanied
by the caption “rain room@ the barbican!” and a location attachment to prove that they were indeed in the rain
room.
This got me thinking. What were people actually saying by Tweeting about their visit? I think all they were
doing was fulfilling the obligation that we have to share. Not sharing in the sense of treasuring a moment with
people close to us, but sharing in the sense of “tell the world that I am doing a thing”.
It’s not sharing; it’s showing off. When we log in to Facebook or Twitter we see an infinitely updating
stream of people enjoying themselves. It’s not real life, because people only post about the good things whereas
all the dull or deep stuff doesn’t get mentioned. But despite this obvious fact, it subconsciously makes us feel like
everyone is having a better time than us.
This is the curse of our age. We walk around with the tools to capture extensive data about our surroundings
and transmit them in real-time to every friend we’ve made. We end up with a reduced understanding of reality
because we’re more concerned about choosing a good Instagram filter(过滤器) for our meal than how it tastes.
I don’t think that it’s inherently wrong to want to keep the world updated about that you’re doing. But when
you go through life robotically posting about everything you do, you’re not a human being. You’re just a prism
that takes bits of light and sound and channels them into the cloud.
The key thing to remember is that you are not enriching your experiences by sharing them online; you are
detracting from them because all your efforts are focused on making the look attractive to other people. Once you
stop seeing things through the eyes of the people following you on Twitter or Facebook or Instagram, you can
make your experiences significant, because you were there and you saw the sights and smelled the smells and
heard the sounds, not snapped a photo of it through a half-inch camera lens.
49. What do we learn from the first two paragraphs?
A. Rain Room exhibition received a large audience in London.
B. Most of people feel obligated to share their experience with friends.
C. Many people want to inform others of their experience by Tweeting.
D. All people having gone to the Rain Room took pictures.
50. It seems to the author that ___________.
A. Facebook or Twitter is a good place where we share personal experience
B. people seldom show depressing stuff on the social networking websites
C. most of people tend to show off that they are having a better time than others
D. sharing experience on the social networking websites is not real life
51. By talking of “a good Instagram filter for our meal” (Line 3-4, Para.4), the author wants to show
_____________.
A. we are surrounded by various tools to capture our daily datax§k§b 1
B. we are more concerned about how our life seems to be to others
C. we transmit our experience immediately to everybody we know
D. we gain more extensive perception of reality with digital tools
52. What suggestion does the author give in the last paragraph?
A. Enrich your experiences by sharing them online.
B. Make efforts to make your life attractive to others.
C. Stop showing your personal experience.
D. Record the details of what you see, smell and hear.
C
It’s midnight already, but the lights in Shi Guang’s dormitory are still on. He and three other students are
sitting back to back. They’re all wearing earphones and staring at a computer screen, talking to each other only in
words like “charge” or “retreat”. Chen Jiasheng, 22, a senior majoring in electrical engineering and automation at
Beijing University of Aeronautics & Astronautics, is a gaming team leader. “ Online gaming is not just about
gaming, it’s a community in which we communicate with each other using our avatars(化身),” said Chen. For
university students like Chen, online gaming has become more than a fashion – it’s part of life and a way of
socializing.
A 2012 research report on online gamers in China released by 17173.com, the country’s leading game
information portal, supports this concept. According to the report, university students aged between 19 and 25
make up 58 percent of online gamers, and the proportion is rising every year. “Many of my friends spend more
time hanging out in online gaming worlds than in reality,” said Wang Jiaming, 21, a junior law major at China
University of Political Sciences and Law. “Personally I feel more powerful in virtual worlds than in real life. I’m
more confident.”
According to Zhang Quan, 20, a student in the second year economics major at Renmin University of China,
one of the distinguishing features of online games compared with offline games is the gaming experience. Offline
games test a gamer’s skill at using a keyboard to beat rivals. “Online games are technically more accessible as
you don’t have to master these skills,” said Zhang.
But most online games are based on avatars controlled by another human – they are unavoidably more tricky
and unpredictable by a computer. “On the surface we are playing games, but actually it’s real people we are
dealing with,” added Zhang. “The only difference is that in these games we communicate with each other in
different settings, like wars, magic battles and fantasy worlds.”
By engaging in this interactive gaming experience, gamers become team players and promote their social
skills. Chen has even made friends by playing in a team with strangers online. “We coordinated our movements
and cooperated with each other to win a battle in the cyberspace. The game was virtual but the brotherhood was
real. Most of us are good friends in real life,” said Chen.
53. According to the passage, which statement of the following is true?
A. Online gaming is the only world where the young communicate with each other by using their avatars.
B. Online gaming is important to those aged between 19 and 25.
C. Online gaming has a bad effect on health as university students usually stay up playing.
D. An increasing number of university students play online games.
54. The passage is mostly about ______.
A. some interviews to young people about online gaming.
B. positive effects from online gaming on university students.
C. learning how to co-work with their mates for online gamers
D. the differences between online games and offline ones.
55. The underlined word can be best replaced by ______.
A. competitors B. strangers C. teammates D. partners.
56. Which can be the best title of this passage?
A. Online gaming B. Beyond a virtual reality C. Virtual cooperation D. Real interaction
D
When Zhang Ning , whose pen name was Misha, started drawing manga(漫画)in junior high school, it was
a time when Japanese cartoonists occupied most of the Chinese market. She was warned about the poor wage
cartoonists earn and the risk of pursuing a career in an industry where China is not yet competitive.
But with the growth of domestic animation and manga industry in recent years, Zhang managed to draw her
way up to become one of the country’s top cartoonists. In 2011, the 29-year-old won the Golden Dragon award,
one of the most influential awards in China’s manga industry.
Looking back, the graduate of Zhejiang University of Technology said: “It was a dream come true.”
Zhang’s success boomed along with the industry. In 2010, according to the National Bureau of Statistics, China’s
animation and manga industry was worth 47 billion yuan. It has seen annual growth rates of more than 20 percent
in recent years.
These big numbers seem a far stretch from Zhang’s in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province. But she thinks the very
reason why cartoonists can enjoy a decent life is the country’s decision to well develop the industry. “The country
is not giving us money directly, but it’s creating a market in which we can succeed,”said Zhang.
Apart from government investment, Zhang is also benefiting from technology advances. The Internet has
provided a wider platform for cartoonists to publish their work. The electric edition of Zhang’s work ranked the
6th among free book apps on the Apple Store. “I think the Internet has encouraged new cartoonists and given
them more chances. Before we could only contribute to magazines and it was difficult to convince the editors to
publish our work”, said Zhang. “But when you release your work online, you receive encouragement and support
from many netizens. It increases your confidence. ”said Zhang.
New technology has also attracted more people to read comics. “China has entered 3G era. It’s very
convenient for people to read on their smart phones when traveling around. It opens comics to a bigger
readership,” said Zhang. Only last week, Zhang published her new manga based on the ancient classic Tangzi(汤
子) which set during the warring states period. According to Zhang, the inspiration came from wall painting in
Dunhuang, Gansu province. She hopes her works will encouraged more people especially the young, to explore
the cultural treasures of ancient China. “Chinese youths now need a spirit to help them to realize their dreams,”
said Zhang. “Like Kua Fu(夸父) chasing the sun --- people can accomplish great things by choosing to something
seemingly beyond their ability. I think that’s my “Chinese dream” and I want to share it with the public through
my cartoons.”
57. When Zhang Ning started drawing manga,________.
A. she nearly finished her study in junior high school.
B. Japanese cartoonists took up the majority of Chinese market.
C. Chinese cartoonists could earn so much money.
D. She was encouraged by her teachers.
58. Which statement can be inferred from the passage?
A. Before the widespread use of the Internet, cartoonists merely send the works to magazines.
B. The Internet has been a wonderful platform only for Chinese cartoonists’ works.
C. China’s animation and manga industry will have a promising future.
D. New cartoonists have received support from the people from across China.
59. This passage is mainly about _____________.
A. that Chinese cartoonists are the greatest in the world.
B. that China’s dream of being the top animation and manga nation.
C. that technology alone helps cartoonists to achieve success.
D. that a Chinese cartoonist has chased her dream and lived it.
60. All of the following except _____ have contributed to Zhang Ning’s success.
A. her new manga Tangzi B. technology advances
C. widespread use of Internet D. government support.

Apparently, the most talked about TV series in China right now is Red Sorghum(红高粱), currently
broadcasting on four major networks. And here are a few reasons why you might want to tune in: 1) It’s adapted
from the novel Red Sorghum Clan by Nobel Prize-winning author Mo Yan, which already had a renowned film
adaptation in 1987; 2) it’s directed by Zheng Xiaolong, best known for helming Legend of Zhen Huan; 3) and it’s
Zhou Xun’s first return to the small screen after more than ten years.
After watching almost one third of the whole series, I’m pretty sure the series doesn’t disappoint — and
sometimes it’s even better than I expected. But can it have an enduring impact like the Legend of Zhen Huan, or
even its film version? I’m a little skeptical.
It’s the same story of the unrest of rural China in the late 1920s and 30s. But if you’ve read the novel or
watched Zhang Yimou’s film version, it’s easy to get confused early in the show. There’re quite a few newly
added characters, such as Jiu’er’s first love and sister-in-law, and more storylines that you’re just not familiar
with.
This doesn’t mean it’s a bad adaptation, though. Whereas the film focuses more on social and political
dynamics to reflect the spirit of the novel, the TV series pays more attention to detail and reflects lesser explored
aspects of the book. To some extent, it has no choice — a TV series requires more substance to fill in long hours
with content. Meanwhile, it’s more accessible to a television audience.
The biggest surprise in Red Sorghum is undoubtedly Zhou Xun. Although she’s mostly known for making
movies, Zhou has portrayed a couple of classic TV characters, such as Huang Rong and the young Princess
Taiping. Obviously, her elegant pixie-like(古灵精怪的) features haven’t kept her from playing the role of the
19-year-old Jiu’er successfully. Not as natural as Gong Li’s portrayal, though, Zhou certainly delivers a powerful
new voice through the character.
Mo’s novel conveys a strong and evocative tone. My concern, also my hope, is that the symbolism of red
sorghum, the metaphor for change and loss in a particular time and place, can shine through.

Author’s concern as well as hope is that the spirit, which is 70 by the

Love Tunnel sees lots of love and trash
Bearing a resemblance to the forest-surrounded "Love Tunnel" in Ukraine, the two-kilometer tunnel in
Jiangning district Nanjing saw a recent rise in popularity as more than 2,000 tourists paid a visit every day this
summer. The high number of visitors caused traffic safety concerns and increased the workload of sanitation
workers. The Nanjing government had intended to cut the trees by end of 2014; After the Nanjing government
was forced to draft plans to cut the trees due to public pressure, visitors poured into a railway section that runs
through thick forest for sightseeing and to take photos this weekend, leaving the railway with overwhelming piles
of trash.
However, in response to the government’s plan, complaints and outcries were made by the citizens that the
love tunnel should be reserved. They claim that walking along the leafy green tunnel is like entering a fairytale,
and a possible decision to tear down the trees could bring the story to a pitiful end.

书面表达 Possible version:
Nanjing government planned to cut the trees surrounding the “love tunnel” for the high
number of visitors caused both safety concerns and pollutions, which gave rise to the objections of
citizens.(31 words)
I am totally in favor of the citizen’s point of view that the fascinating love tunnel ought to be
reserved. For one thing, it would be a great pity to put an end to the fairytale-like scenic spot, which
brings peace and beauty to the visitors. For another thing, in a bid to solve the problem of safety
concerns and pollutions, the authority could come up with a way to preserve the green corridor
while also improving the safety of both people and trains.(84 words)
Therefore, as long as the visitors and the authorities make joint efforts to preserve the love
tunnel, it will surely serve as a marvelous tourist attraction for us without any concerns.(31 words)

听第 9 段材料,回答第 13 至 15 题。
M: Today I’ll be presenting a report on our findings on the condition of the world’s population.
It may be a surprise to you that half the people in the world live on less than $2 a day, and one
billion people live on less than $1 a day.
I’m going to look at poverty and its relationship to population issues. We must work fast if we
hope to reduce poverty by half, by the year 2025.
Our survey shows that the first step should be to improve health-care systems. In the world’s
poorest countries, people are expected to live just 49 years. One in ten children doesn’t reach his
or her first birthday. According to our study, poor health and poverty are linked. Women are
influenced most by medical systems, especially pregnant women.
The second job we have to do, as many of you can guess, is to reduce birth rates. We have found
that when given a choice, poor people in developing countries would have fewer children than their
parents did.
Now, here is the third measure we must take: promote education in developing countries. Investing
in education, especially for women, can reduce poverty. Educated women have more opportunities
to work and a chance to live better. Moreover, they tend to send their children to good schools so
that they can climb the social ladder.
