第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节：（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项。

A
People in the United States honor their parents with 2 special days: Mother’s Day on the second Sunday in May and Father’s Day on the 3rd Sunday in June. These days are to show love and respect for parents。

They raise their children and educate them to be responsible people. They give love and care。

These two days offer a chance to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers。

More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with childcare。

These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On mother’s Day, people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(公墓）. On these days, families also get together at home as well as in restaurants。

They often have outdoor barbecue for Father’s Day。

These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts。

Children make them in school。

Many people make their own presents. These are more valued than those bought in stores。

It's not the value of the gift that is important，but the thought that counts. Greeting card stores, florists，candy makers，bakers，phone companies and other stores do lots of business during these holidays。

21. Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents？
A. Parents bring up children。

B。

Parents give love and care to children.
C. Parents educate children to be good persons.
D。

Parents pass away before children grow up.
22。

What do you know from the passage?
A. Both festivals are in May.
B. Fewer women worked outside the home in the past。

C。

Not all the children respect their parents。

D。

Fathers are not as important as mothers at home。

23。

On Mother’s Day and Father’s Day ___________。

A。

people sometimes have family parties B。

everyone goes to the cemetery
C。

chil dren always go to parents’ home D. hand—made cards are the most valuable gifts.
24. What do you think “florists” do？
A. They sell flowers. B。

They make bread or pastry.
C。

They offer enough room for having family parties。

D. They s ell special clothes for Mother's Day and Father’s Day。

B
A warm smile on the street，a happy “hello" in a public park or the happy sound of your name at the neighborhood bar —it doesn’t take much to feel at home in a busy city。

And in the following cities, these gestures are second nature，with locals who are quick to welcome visitors and neighbors alike。

Dublin，Ireland
Dublin is home to some of the warmest people all over the world. Residents there are more likely to lend a stranger a helping hand. In Dublin，talking too loudly in public gives the impression of being careless at best and rude at worst.
Auckland，New Zealand
New Zealand’s biggest city is also the country's friendliest, perhaps because many of its residents（居民）are immigrants（移民). People have come from all over the world and understand what it is like to have moved to a different place，so it is welcoming for tourists and new residents。

Also，the city is surrounded by amazing scenery and things. That’s got to make people a bit happier，and therefore friendlier。

Charleston，United States
This city has a quiet outdoor environment that helps keep residents in good spirits。

Like many southern US cities, Charleston moves at a slower pace. People take time to sit outside，talk to neighbors and walk to dinner.
Victoria, Canada
Being a popular tourist destination, the capital of British Columbia is known for first-rate customer service and kind hosts. Even the post men and women are super friendly and often say “good morning”。

It’s got a small town and big city feel all at the same time.
25。

What can be inferred from the underlined part?
A. The behavior of locals does not show their true nature.
B. It is likely that locals would hate to welcome visitors.
C. Locals perform the acts naturally and without thinking。

D。

Locals do not feel at home in these busy cities.
26. In which city are locals more likely to understand tourists and new residents？
A。

Dublin. B. Auckland. C。

Charleston. D。

Victoria。

27。

What is the main purpose of the passage？
A. To show the friendliness of different cities。

B。

To introduce the tourism in some cities。

C. To make a comparison between some cities。

D。

To analyze the nature of people from different countries.
C

Cara says，“It was very exciting for me to go to the studio with my dad。

I saw a lot of people doing different jobs." Many businesses have special activities for girls on this day。

Last year, Cara went to work with her aunt at the University of Massachusetts。

In the engineering department，the girls learned to build a bridge with toothpicks. In the chemistry department，they learned to use scales. They learned about many other kinds of jobs，too.

For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions。

Some believe the air inside
many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside。

It may be one hundred times worse。

Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants(污染物) can cause breathing disorders，diseases of blood and even cancer。

Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution。

People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is true that when builders began making modern houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they build buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside。

They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases。

As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building—-green plants。

Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution。

They believe that a plant’s leaves take in the pollutants。

Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space。

So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants。

Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place。

32．Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because ______。

A. indoor air pollution can often make people seriously ill
B。

there may be more harmful gases outside the buildings
C. the air indoors is polluted, which is very harmful
D. man—made building materials give off dangerous gases
33．Some kind of indoor pollution can be found in _______。

A. every modern house
B. every old house
C. all kinds of houses
D. all kinds of offices
34．The indoor air pollution is caused by ______.
A. the building way that the builders want to save energy
B。

the man-made building materials and the limit of air—flow
C. the building things that are made of man-made materials
D。

the limit of the flow of air between inside and outside
35．The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that ______.
A。

plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoors
B。

plants may take in more oxygen which people need
C。

plants can take in all kinds of harmful indoor chemicals
D. plants can make our houses prettier and more healthy

During my stay in hospital，not only did you come to visit me，but also helped me with my missing lesson。

How I miss the school days we spend together! I can’t wait to return to school，studying and living with you.
Again，special thanks to all of you.
Yours,
