第二部分阅读理解（满分40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。

21．（6分）An 11-year-old girl from Belthangady, India, recently made news headlines for having around 60 dead ants pulled from her eyes. As for how the insects
got there, some doctors thought they entered her body through the ears.
Last week, the girl, known only as Ashwini, started complaining of severe pain in her eyes. She told her parents that she felt there was something stuck in her eyes, and when they checked, they did find a small ant in one of her eyes. They didn’t pay much importan ce to it, as they assumed the insect had gotten there by accident, but it wasn’t long before the girl again started reporting pain in her eyes. They discovered more dead ants, and this time, they took her to hospital.
A local doctor told Ashwini’s parents that the insects must have first entered her body through the ears and then somehow made their way to her eyes. He gave her some eye-drops to help with the irritation（刺激）, but the girl still has 5 to 6 ants pulled from her eyes daily. A week ago, the Daily Mail reported that Ashwini’s eyes produced around 60 dead ants in a period of 10 days.
As doctors in Belthangady were left scratching their heads about how the ants reached Ashwini’s eyes or what they could do to stop the unusual phenomenon, she was taken to an eye hospital in Moodabidri, where her family hope to get some answers.
IB Times reports that Ashwini’s parents feared she had been affected by some evil spirit, so they also took her to an astrologer（占星家）who told them that the ants in the eyes were caused by something called Naga Dosha. But who knows?
1、Why did Ashwini recently make news headlines?
A．Because of her love for insects. B．Because of her extraordinary skills. C．Because of her strange experience. D．Because of her abilities to control ants. 2、How did Ashwini’s parents react when finding an ant in her eye?
A．They didn’t take it seriously. B．They tried their best to comfort her.
C．They sent her to hospital immediately. D．They didn’t think it was just an accident.
3、The underlined part in paragraph 4 most probably means “”.
A．feeling angry about B．showing disagreement about
C．being optimistic about D．feeling puzzled about
4、What can be inferred about Ashwini from the text?
A．Her eyes no longer produce dead ants.
B．Eye-drops are of little help to her eyes.
C．The dead ants cause no harm to her eyes.
D．Only the astrologer has found out the truth.
22．（8分）Thompson’s Children
As her son Cameron sits at his laptop completing a task for his math degree course. Alison Thompson, a full-time mum is busy helping her daughter Emma (two years younger than Cameron) get dressed. While help has always been available for Emma, Alison and her husband also have to fight to get Cameron the support he needs."People could see that Emma has special needs but because Cameron was doing so well at school, his teachers never thought there was a problem with him, “says Alison.
It took Alison and her husband a while to realize their son was different. Cameron's ability didn’t become clear until he bega n primary school. Once he even corrected the teacher when she told the class that zero was the lowest number. Cameron told her she was wrong because there were negative numbers(负数). He was four at the time. Now
14-year-old Cameron is at secondary school, studying for a distance learning math degree with the Open University, having sailed through his GCSE at 11 and his A-level
at 12, achieving top grades.
Bethany, another daughter of Alison, is bright too but not gifted. She is the one who will remind absent-minded Cameron to put on his coat. She also helps him out in social situations.
Emma attends a specialist school and the family is quick to celebrate her successes too.
“The other day she did up the buttons on her coat, which was real progress,” Alison says.
Late last year the Thompsons took part in a television documentary(纪录片) to prove that not all gifted children are the result of extremely ambitious parents. Gifted children need support too, but their lives don't have to be that different. Cameron is an example
1、What does paragraph 1 indicate?
A．Cameron helps Emma with her math tasks.
B．Teachers at school ignored Emma's problems.
C．Both Cameron and Emma need parental support.
D．The couple often have fights because of Cameron.
2、There are at least__________ people in Mrs. Th ompson’s family.
A．three B．four
C．five D．six
3、What can be known from the passage?
A．Emma has learned to take good care of herself.
B．Cameron showed his gift before primary school.
C．The children of the family are bright and gifted.
D．Gifted kids are not so different as people expect.
23．（8分）College graduation eventually means taking much of your attention in your first job search. This process can be challenging, especially for those students who had second thoughts about their chosen major and intended career path—or those who majored in a field not directly connected to a specific career. If you are in one of these groups, fear not! Although your major, coursework, and academic performance are relevant to landing a job, they are not the only deciding factors on where you can work. So, just how important is your major to your job search?
Some majors are tied directly to specific career fields. For example, if you wish to become a teacher, you will likely have needed to complete an education program and eventually sit for a licensing exam. The same applies to majors in nursing. If you did not complete an accredited nursing program, you won’t be able to take the nursing licensure exam. In these cases, successfully completing a specific major is crucial to landing a job in the matching field.
Other majors, however, are closely related to career paths but don’t necessarily require a degree in the area. For example, students who majored in finance, math, or statistics may also have the necessary skills to be hired as an accountant. Although social work majors are most prepared to provide case management services to struggling populations, students who majored in psychology or sociology can be just as qualified.
Lastly, there are many industries, such as professional sales, education
(non-teaching positions), insurance, and customer service management, which hire new graduates from several more majors, looking for more generalized requirements. They may simply want to know the student has completed his or her bachelor’s degree, which demonstrates college-level math and writing, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
Hopefully, as a college student, you were able to do more than just attend classes.
Your non-academic experiences can be very influential on your future career as well. Did you work during college, volunteer, or participate in a club or organization? If so, and if you enjoyed these activities, seek out related careers. If you volunteered with a non-profit organization such as a homeless or domestic violence shelter, seek out positions in social services related to case management or victim advocacy(辩护). You may qualify for a position regardless of your major.
Although it often seems like your college major alone determines your career fate, this just isn’t the case. It may influence it, but there are other factors that influence your career options as well. If you don’t know what career options to consider based on your major, talk to your faculty or academic advisor. You may be surprised at what opportunities await!
1、To be a customer service manager, college graduates______.
A．need to have related qualities B．should pass a licensing exam
C．are required to major in insurance D．must have relevant experiences
2、What is probably the best title for the passage?
A．Major Ups Your Career
B．Why Your College Major Matters
C．How Important Your Major Is to Your Job
D．Major VS Career: Which Is Right for Y ou
3、The writer thinks that _____________.
A．majors are closely linked to career paths
B．students of science tend to receive higher salaries
C．volunteer experiences help graduates get employed
D．social work graduates have more employment opportunities
4、Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?
CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点) C：Conclusion A．B．
C．D．
（8分）Though Grant and I are typically more traditional, we actually met online, 24．
through Facebook. As a single mom, it was always a nightmare trying to date, as I have full custody (抚养权) of my daughter and very little “me” time. But that wasn’t the only challenge we had to overcome as a couple -we also lived four and a half hours away
from one another. But when two people are meant to be, life sure has an interesting way of bringing two people together.
Nine months ago, I randomly added him on Facebook. After weeks of messaging back and forth, we had our first four-hour phone call, and the long call led to our first date.
In the six and half months that we dated, I got to witness an attractive, charming bachelor become a positive, loving and selfless father to my little girl.
On the day of our engagement(订婚), he took my daughter and I to breakfast. I had a feeling that he was planning something. But after anxiously eating breakfast, hoping and praying he wasn’t going to get down on one knee in the middle of a very busy Saturday morning brunch, we left. Then, we walked a mile into the woods. It was quite the adventure. Finally, we got to a wooden bridge in the middle of the forest and he got down on one knee.
After proposing to me, Grant got back to propose to my daughter. He said, “Adrianna, can I be your daddy, to promise to love and protect you for the rest of your life?” As soon as he spoke those sweet words, I once again broke down in tears.
My daughter replied in complete shock, “thank you!” He then presented her with a beautiful heart necklace. The necklace symbolizes a piece of his heart that she can always carry with her.
Our beautiful little family of two has become three. My daughter and I both got our fairy tale ending.
1、What challenges did the author and Grant face as a couple?
①She had little time to date.
②They met each other online.
③There was a long distance between them.
④They were traditional people.
A．①②B．①③
C．③④D．②④
2、How could the author probably describe Grant.
A．Generous and grateful. B．Humorous and gifted.
C．Responsible and caring. D．Optimistic and patient.
3、Why did the author feel anxious on the day of their engagement?
A．She had no idea what their future would be.
B．She didn’t know how to respond to Grant.
C．She was afraid Grant wouldn’t acc ept her daughter.
D．She thought that Grant would propose to her in public.
25．（10分）Conformity involves changing your behaviour to “fit in” or “go along” with the people around you. In some cases, this social influence might involve agreeing with or acting like the majority of people in a specific group, or involve behaving in a particular way to be viewed as “normal” by the group. Actually, conformity is something that happens regularly in our social world. Sometimes we’re aware of our behaviour, but in many cases it happens without much thought or awareness on our parts. And even in some cases we go along with things we disagree with or behave in ways we know we shouldn’t.
There are countless examples of conformity in life. For instance, a teenager dresses in a certain style because he wants to fit in with the rest of the teenagers in his social group. A woman reads a book for her book club and really enjoys it. When she attends her book club meeting, the other members all dislike the book. Rather than go against the group opinion, she simply agrees with the others that the book is terrible.
Why do we conform? In many cases, looking to the rest of the group for clues for how we should behave can actually be helpful. Others might have greater knowledge or experience than we do, so following their lead can actually be instructive. And in some cases, we conform to the expectations of the group to avoid looking foolish. This tendency can become especially strong in situations where we aren’t quite sure how to act. Additionally, there are some situations where we conform just in order to avoid punishments or gain rewards.
There are many factors that influence conformity. For example, not knowing how
to perform a difficult task makes people more likely to conform. Personal characteristics such as motivation to achieve and strong leadership abilities are linked with a decreased tendency to conform. And people are more likely to conform in situations that involve between three and five other people.
1、What can we learn about conformity from the first paragraph?
A．Actually it is rare for us to conform.
B．Blind conformity should be criticized.
C．Sometimes people tend to conform unconsciously.
D．Conformity means changing your behaviour reluctantly.
2、Which of the following is a case of conformity?
A．Joining a certain organization.
B．Following the ongoing fashion.
C．Sharing something personal with others.
D．Giving up your creative ideas cautiously.
3、When are we most likely to conform according to the text?
A．When we are at a loss.
B．When we are rejected.
C．When we feel threatened.
D．When we feel uncomfortable.
4、What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．Conformity cannot be avoided by anyone.
B．Conformity is linked to the size of the group.
C．Conformity is a natural response to challenges.
D．Conformity isn’t related to individual differences.

29、Dear_friends，
As we all know, we are what we eat. Therefore, it's very important for us to form healthy eating habits. However, bad eating habits are still very common among us students. Some don't have breakfast. Some prefer snacks. Some are particular about food and some eat or drink too much. All these bad habits will surely do harm to our health.
To keep fit, we should have various healthy diets, which generally include proper amounts of fish, meat, vegetables, fruit as well as main food. Besides, we'd better have meals at a regular time and proper amount. If we get into good habits of eating meals, it will benefit us a lot. In addition, good eating habits can protect us from all kinds of illnesses.
In my opinion, we should try to develop healthy eating habits to build up a strong body. After all, health is the most important in our life. Only in this way can we have enough energy to study better.
That's all. Thank you!。
