第二部分阅读理解
第一节（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）
A
A few years ago, I felt like I was stuck in a rut (车辙), so I decided to follow in the footsteps of the great American philosopher, Morgan Spurlock, and try something new for 30 days. The idea is actually pretty simple. Think about something you’ve always wanted to add to your life and try it for the next 30 days. It turns out that 30 days is just about the right amount of time
There’s a few things I learned while doing these 30-day challenges. The first was the time was much more memorable. This was part of a challenge I did to take a
picture every day for a month. I also noticed that as I started to do more and harder 30-day challenges, my self-recognition grew. I went from a desk-dwelling computer nerd（电脑迷）to the kind of guy who bikes to work.
Even last year, I ended up hiking up Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. I would never have been that adventurous before I started my 30-day challenges.
I also figured out that if you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30 days. Have you ever wanted to write a novel? Tens of thousands of people try to write their own 50,000-word novel in 30 days. It turns out that all you have to do is write 1,667 words a day for a month. So I did.
So here’s my question to you: What are you waiting for? I guarantee you the next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot.
21. The underlined sentence in Paragraph I means “”?
A．I don’t like following others’ footsteps．
B．I thought that I have physical problems．
C．I felt my life was unchanged and boring．
D．it seemed that my car broke down．
22. Which of the following results from the author’s 30-day challengers? A．Gaining a better self-recognition.
B．Finishing writing a novel.
C．Being expert at outdoor activities.
D．Having a good command of computer.
23. Why does the author mention writing a novel?
A．To show the author’s achievement.
B．To get readers interested in 30-day challenge.
C．To describe the difficulty in doing 30-day challengers.
D．To explain how to do a 30-day challenge.
24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Fed up with your work?
B．Ways to challenge yourself
C．Try something new for 30 days
D．Would you like to satisfy yourself?
B
When Hai started college, he weighed over 250 pounds. Healthy food choices were difficult for him, and he was emotionally distraught (忧心忡忡). However, when he left home for college, he was able for the first time to start taking his life and weight into his own hands.
He started by shopping at a local farmers’ market, an experience that inspired him profoundly. The idea that a farmer’s market represents local, sustainable, healthy food with a human connection where you can interact with the people that grow your produce was extremely appealing to him, and he began to think about the food that people at his university were eating. From what he saw at farmers’ markets, Hai realized that dining hall food was not “real” food. A lot of it is frozen or processed, and has unhealthy additives. His ideas continued to develop as he started taking classes about food sustainability at university, and after the summer of 2014 during which he cooperated with other students, he launched into his senior year at the University of California full force with the Real Food Challenge (RFC) campaign, a project he co-founded that aims to reinvest university spending in food that is “real”: ecologically-sound, community-based, humane, and fair; as opposed to those traditional purchases with those unhealthy additives and processed products.
Not only has Hai started a movement of change across the university dining system, but he has also grown extremely as an individual, now with strong leadership abilities and great vision. In addition, after he started learning about food sustainability and taking action at university, Hai has lost over 100 pounds, and has been able to start enjoying activities such as backpacking and swimming that were not a possibility for him previously. He is confident instead of distraught now.
25. When did Hai get the idea of “real” food?
A. When purchasing the locally-made food.
B. When reforming the university dining system.
C. When reinvesting university spending in food.
D. When organizing the Real Food Challenge campaign.
26. What benefit ha s the campaign brought to Hai’s occupational
development?
A. He has been hired by the university.
B. He has become an expert in food field.
C. He has got excellent leading ability.
D. He has become much thinner than before.
27.According to Hai, "real" food is ____ .
A. rich in nutrition
B. made by experts
C. frozen or processed
D. healthy without additives
C
Feifei, an 11 -year-old boy from Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, suffered from a sudden acute eye disease which has almost led to blindness. The disease was caused by excessive (过度的) eye fatigue (疲劳) during the winter vacation, during which he played computer games for continuous 10 days and nights.
Many youngsters in China nowadays are increasingly addicted to computer games and other electronic products. This is followed by a series of health problems,with the most typical case being myopia, or nearsightedness.
According to the latest research report released by the World Health Organization (WHO), the myopia rate among Chinese teenagers ranks first in the world—70 percent of high school and college students. The rate is nearly 40 percent in primary school students, while it is only 10 percent for their peers in the United States.
There are at least 10 million people in China with severe myopia, and they are likely to get pathological (病理性的) myopia in middle age. Pathological myopia can't be treated with glasses or surgery, and it is one of the biggest factors that lead
to blindness, Xu Xun, director of the ophthalmology (眼科学) department at Shanghai General Hospital, pointed out.
Experts explain that two major factors lead to the high rate of myopia among Chinese people. One is high academic pressure, and the other one is excessive use of electronic devices over a long period of time. Genetics, on the other hand, are not the main reason, as only 20 percent of Chinese people had myopia in the 1960s.
"Teenagers are now faced with severe academic pressure, which means they often study without natural light. This increases their risk of becoming nearsighted," Xu said.
Experts suggest that youngsters maintain a proper balance between study and rest so as to protect their eyesight, and parents should play an active role in the process.
28. Why does the author mention Feifei 's experience in the first paragraph?
A. To advise people to protect their eyes.
B. To introduce the topic of nearsightedness.
C. To inform people of the cause of blindness.
D. To show that Feifei developed an eye disease.
29. What can be learnt from the passage?
A. Nearsightedness may cause other health problems.
B. There are more nearsighted students in the United States.
C. 70 percent Chinese students in primary school are nearsighted.
D. Pathological myopia is most likely to cause blindness.
30. Which of the following can be a main reason for myopia?
A. Genetics factors.
B. Low academic pressure.
C. Overuse of electronic devices.
D. Reading in natural light.
31. What will be probably discussed in the following paragraph?
A. The significance of protecting eyesight.
B. Youngsters' bad behavior leading to myopia.
C. The relationship between youngsters and their parents.
D. Parents' role in helping youngsters protect their eyesight.
D
Psychology tells us that many people hate to take risks. But it is good for us to take risks, especially when the risk is to achieve a desired result. In that way, we become stronger and braver.
Our human nature should be to take risks, but some people just sit and wish they didn't have the fear to move on. This is because they failed a few times in their lives. Please step out and don't let the past hold you back from living life to the fullest. Move forward and move on! In studying the psychology of taking risks, we find that human provides us with the desire to experiment and take chances.
Risk taking is a great advantage that allowed our ancestors to become stronger and stronger day by day. By taking risks they fought off enemies and discovered new territories.

This psychological and biological connection creates an interesting connection between what is unsafe and what humans enjoy.
Getting in a car each day is a risk. Getting out of bed is a risk, too. We need to take risks so that we can complete many things. Astronauts take risks when they get inside a rocket; however, the things they achieve are great. Businessmen take a risk when they buy parts of a company, however, without doing that, they could not make more money.
We need to take risks so that we can gain something. It is impossible to move forward in life, earn money, enjoy a relationship, play a sport, or doing anything else without taking a risk. It is all part of the game. It' s one of the most important parts of life.

书面表达答案
Dear Mike,
I’m very glad to have received the letter you sent me last week.I have been thinking about the question you asked me. From my point of view, you can choose to come to China after finishing your studies.
For one reason, China’s development over the past 30 years offers quantities of job opportunities for the young. What’s more, what you are st udying is badly needed in China nowadays. In fact, many big companies in our city are hoping to hire people like you.
For another reason, China is a country with so different cultures and traditions from the west that many foreigners enjoy living and working here. Why not come and join them? I’m sure you will adapt to the environment quickly. If you come here, I will do what I can to help you. So what are you waiting for?
I’m looking forward to your coming.
Best wishes!。
