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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Are you looking for some movies You’ve landed on the right place. Let’s take a look at the list I’ve collected.
A Beautiful Mind
A Beautiful Mind is the story of John Nash, a mathematician who went on to win the Nobel Prize for his Game Theory. This movie brings his whole journey on screen—from his beginning to his downhill ride.
The first half is all about his rise to fame while the second half shows how he slowly falls into madness. After many years of fighting, he finally is victorious.
I.Q.
The story is about an auto mechanic who falls for Albert Einstein’s niece. The only problem is that she is engaged (已订婚的) to someone else. Fortunately, Einstein likes him. The young man pretends to be a physicist to run after her, but things don’t go as he has planned.
If A Beautiful Mind was a little too heavy for you, I.Q. would be the perfect fit. It’s a light drama that is funny and heartwarming for the most part.
Good Will Hunting
Good Will Hunting is a touching tale of a troubled young man called Will Hunting who is gifted with a natural talent in mathematics.
However, he is struggling to find his identity. He can solve any math problem, but not the one he seems to be struggling within his life. His life seems to be getting only worse until one day he meets Sean, a therapist, who helps him find direction in life.
Creation
Creation is a story of a famous scientist, Charles Darwin, best known for his Theory of Evolution. This movie attempts to bring his struggling days into focus, the time when he was dealing with the loss of his daughter and was suffering from hallucinations (幻觉). At the same time, he was working on a book called On the Origins of Species, which he finally completed.
All in all, Creation is a great historical drama.
21. If you are interested in a relaxing movie, which one can you see
A. I.Q B. Creation C. A Beautiful Mind D. Good Will Hunting
22. Who are experts in mathematics
A. Will Hunting and Sean. B. John Nash and Will Hunting.
C. Charles Darwin and Sean. D. John Nash and Charles Darwin.
23. What’s the main purpose of the text

B
Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.
Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses (球场) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf causes serious water shortage in some local areas.
There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.
Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces.
There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.
24. What do we know about golf from Paragraph 2
A. It eats up city areas of Portugal and Spain.
B. It causes water shortages around the world.
C. It needs water and energy to keep its courses.
D. It pollutes the Earth with chemicals and wastes.
25. Why does the author use power walking as an example in Paragraph 3
A. Because it is cost-effective. B. Because it improves our health.
C. Because it is an outdoor sport. D. Because it uses fewer resources.
26. What does the author probably recommend according to Paragraph 4
A. Cycling around a lake.
B. Motor racing in the desert.
C. Playing basketball in a gym.
D. Swimming in a sports center.
27. Which of the following would be the best title for the text
A. Golf: a waste of resource.
B. Green sports: a wiser choice.
C. Power walking: a simple exercise.
D. Sports center: a greater replacement.
C
When children do something wrong, parents expect an apology (道歉). Children often try to read their parents’ mind or butter up (奉承) their parents by saying, “I’m sorry.” Even though they did not do anything wrong, they will act in that way because they are scared to make their parents angry. Children always look timid (胆小的) because they have been anxious or nervous about being punished by parents.
When parents force them to apologize, they will lose the opportunity to think by themselves why they should apologize or what was wrong. So, how can we make them understand properly what was wrong
If parents never give children a chance and say something like, “That’ s not good” or “Say you’re sorry”, children cannot learn to reflect their behavior. So, the first thing that parents should do is listening to their children, asking questions such as what happened, why they did it. Once children have their parents’ attention and feel at ease, they can easily accept their parents’ words.
Children do not have enough skills to tell good or bad things, therefore, it is necessary for parents to teach them what was wrong. When parents explain what was wrong to children, short and simple words should be used as much as possible. Moreover, it would be more effective to tell children what kind of behavior makes parents feel a certain way. For example, it would be good to express mom’s feelings with something like “When you hit me, mommy will get hurt.” “When you call me stupid, I feel sad.”
In this way, children can understand that they hurt mom or they make her sad, therefore, they will become able to apologize naturally. That would be more understandable for children why their behavior was wrong than being scolded by parents something like “Hitting is not good!” “You cannot say stupid to someone else.”
Many people believe that children are too young to understand what parents say, however, children actually can understand parents’ feelings if parents use simple words and speak calmly. Parents should avoid speaking one-sidedly and always try to listen to children. Talking to each other would be the best way.
28. Why do children apologize when they don’t want to
A. To please their parents.
B. To act like their parents.
C. To show their politeness.
D. To show regrets for their mistakes.
29. What is important for parents in making children apologize
A. Kindness. B. Patience. C. Seriousness. D. Timeliness.
30. What should parents do when explaining children’s wrongdoings
A. Speak briefly and clearly.
C. Show what other children do.
B. Punish their wrong behaviors.
D. Do the same thing to children.
31. What’s the author’s advice in correcting children’s bad behaviors
A. Leaving them alone.
B. Giving them a lesson.
C. Communicating with each other.
D. Letting children listen to parents.
D
What do you do with the things you love You probably take care of them and keep them safe. That’s not what Cameron Payne does. The boy from North Carolina is sharing his love of books by giving them away.
When Cameron heard about a family who lost everything in a house fire, he was looking for a way to help them. He was sad that all of their books were destroyed. That’s when he created his program, which gives books away to people in need.
Cameron’s program collects books for young people of all ages and reading levels. He collects books for kids who are blind or with low vision, too, because he wants everyone to have books. Cameron knows that books can help kids think about their future. They do this by helping kids dream about what they might be when they grow up. Learning about new things can give kids new interests. Six years later, Cameron is still giving away books.
Many of the books he gives away were given to him by others, but Cameron’s grandmother also shops for books that don’t cost a lot. She buys books that are new or that look new. In addition to working with schools, Cameron and his grandmother give books to children in places near their home, such as hospitals, libraries, and day camps.
Cameron wants to keep his program going and growing. Over the past six years, he has given away more than 3,000 books. He has also won many prizes for his work. His program has grown over the years, too. Last Christmas, Cameron was able to give away toys and books.
Cameron Payne does a lot for kids by giving away the things he loves. Who needs help in your community How might you help
32. What caused Cameron to create his program
A. Someone’s losing all the books to a fire.

How to Make Friends at Community College
Making friends in community college is a bit tougher than in four-year schools in some cases. Students don’t typically live in the dorm at community colleges, so there isn’t always a shared living environment. 36 . Here’s a look at how to make friends at a community college.
Get hired on campus
While working part-time, most initial engagement(初步接触) involves helping students with their needs. For example, if you work in the bookstore, the conversational icebreaker usually focuses on finding out what the other students need to find. Previously, you may have only had opportunities to socialize with other students in your classes. 37 .
Attend events
38 . Whether it’s special lectures, career fairs, musical performances, or anything else, these occasions bring students together outside of the classroom. By taking part in activities that correspond(符合) to their hobbies or preferences, you and your peers can meet other like-minded students. Plus, the event can be an initial topic of conversation, giving your peers an easy way to communicate with others.
39
College work will occupy most of your day. Your health, for one, is something you may start to neglect as you throw yourself fully into college life. Needless to say, ignoring your health is absolutely unacceptable. 40 . You can start with your friend by heading over to your school’s gym or fitness center and try meeting new people there.
A．Work out with a partner
B．Find a job in your gym
C．You may start to see some new faces at your job though
D．However, that doesn’t mean opportunities aren’t available
E．Community colleges offer programs that are two years long
F．Community colleges do hold a variety of activities throughout the year
G．Finding yourself an exercise buddy will help encourage you to become more active

Recently, one of Jeremy’s closest friends asked him to make a speech at a wedding reception. This is the sort of thing that Jeremy loves. He prepared the speech carefully and went to the wedding with Jenny. He had included a large number of funny stories in the speech and, of course, it was a great success. But as soon as he had finished, Jenny said to him, “Daddy, I don’t want to stay here any longer, even one more minute! Daddy, let’s go home.” Jeremy was a little disappointed by this but he did as his daughter asked.

I am sorry to hear that you have been under the pressure of study and psychology since you entered high school. Here are some suggestions for you to relieve stress.

Most importantly, you should make a good study schedule and stick to it, which can make you devote yourself to studies and realize your potential.
I hope my suggestions will be of help and I’m sure you will have a happy high school life!
Your sincerely,

On the way home, there was a long silence between them. For the first time, the father and the daughter didn’t walk hand in hand. Jeremy knew something was wrong but didn’t know the reason exactly. When seeing the tears in Jenny’s eyes, he decided not to get the answer directly. When they passed a cake shop, Jeremy broke the ice and invited Jenny a cake for herself. That’s what Jenny loved and the cloud on her face began to break up as if nothing unhappy had happened. When they nearly got home, Jeremy felt it was time to deal with his puzzle. In a gentle voice, he asked, “Jenny, why didn’t you want to stay there any longer ” “But, daddy, I just don’t want you to be laughed at by so many people!”
