第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分 35 分)
第一节(共 10 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 25 分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。

A
Eating is best when it’s a social activity. Think of the meal a family enjoys
in the evening when everyone’s together after work or school, or the big get-togethers over food at Spring Festival. But now, in the age of the Internet and social media, anyone with an Internet connection can enjoy a social eating event.
Mukbang-a South Korean phrase meaning “eating broadcast”-is an unusual food fanaticism that’s sweeping the country. This is a meal where only one person gets to eat, while many viewers watch live shows of hosts eating large quantities of food. They leave comments on the dishes the host is taking, and the host responds to them live.
So why have people taken to this unusual new food trend(趋势)? Jeff Yang, an Asian-American cultural critic, thinks that it’s down to “the loneliness of unmarried or uncoupled South Koreans”. He believes that eating on your own can be hard in a country like South Korea, where social eating is such a long tradition. However, Mukbang gives people the feeling that they are part of something larger, it seems.
Millions of people have trouble with food. Either they eat too much of it, or too little. Some say that the popularity of Mukbang helps people with these disorders. Those who always eat too much and put on weight can watch Mukbang live shows to satisfy their appetite (胃口). And those who don’t eat enough can build their appetite by watching delicious food being eaten.
Even though Mukbang is a South Korean phenomenon, it’s also taken off in the US. But unlike South Koreans who sit down to enjoy noodles and kimchi (泡菜), Americans enjoy their own native dishes. This means that viewers of US Mukbang live shows will see locals stuffing themselves with hamburgers, fries and ice cream.
21. The underlined word “fanaticism” in the second paragraph is clo sest in meaning to ________.
A. disappointment
B. enthusiasm
C. dislike
D. imagination
22. According to Jeff Yang, Mukbang is becoming popular in South Korea mainly because
________.
A. people are used to eating alone
B. it’s good for t hose who have eating disorders
C. it helps to comfort the lonely people
D. it assists people to build their appetite
23. What is the article mainly about?
A. A traditional Korean eating habit.
B. A new food trend from South Korea.
C. How Koreans communicate through eating.
D. How the Internet affects the way we eat.
B
Bad news sells．If it bleeds，it leads．No news is good news，and good news is no news．Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers．But now that information is being spread and monitored（监控） in different ways，researchers are discovering new rules．By tracking people’s e﹣mails and online posts，scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories．
“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule w orks for mass media，”says Jonah Berger，a scholar at the University of Pennsylvania．“They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling．But when you share a story with your friends，you care a lot more how they react．You don’t want them to think of yo u as a Debbie Downer．”
Researchers analyzing word﹣of﹣mouth communication—e﹣mails，Web posts and reviews，face﹣to﹣face conversations—found that it tended to be more positive than negative（消极的），but that didn’t necessarily mean people preferred positive news．Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things？To test for that possibility，Dr．Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories：thousands of articles on The New York Times’ website．He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e﹣mailed” list for six months．One of his first finds was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non﹣science articles．He found that science amazed Times’ readers and mad e them want to share this positive feeling with others． Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny，or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety，but not articles that left them
merely sad．They needed to be aroused（激发） one way or the other，and they preferred good news to bad．The more positive an article，the more likely it was to be shared，as Dr．Berger explains in his new book，“Contagious：Why Things Catch On．”
24.What do the classic rules mentioned in the text apply to？
A. News reports.
B. Research papers.
C. Private e﹣malls.
D. Daily conversations.
25.What can we infer about people like Debbie Downer？
A .They’re socially inactive.
B. They’re good at telling stories.
C. They’re inconsiderate o f others.
D. They’re careful with their words.
26.Which tended to be the most e﹣mailed according to Dr．Berger’s research？
A. Sports new.
B. Science articles.
C. Personal accounts.
D. Financial reviews.
C
I’ve never been the kind of person to say, “it’s the thought that counts” when it comes to gifts. That was until a couple of weeks ago, when my kids gave me a present that blew me away.
For years now, I’ve been wanting to sell our home, the place where my husband and I raised our kids. But to me, this house is much more than just a building. In the front room, there’s a wall that has hundreds of pencil lines, marking the progress of my children’s growth. Every growth stage is marked in grey, with each child’s name and the date they were measured. Most people I know have been featured on a wall like this, or at least had a wall like it in their home.
Of all the objects and all the memories, it’s this one thing in a home that’s the hardest to leave behind. Friends I know have returned home after work only to discover their wall of heights has been freshly painted over. A new paint job wouldn’t normally be greeted by tears, but erasing that evidence of motherhood hurts more than it should. Our kids grow in so many ways, but the wall is physical evidence of their progress, right there for everyone to see.
Over the years, I’ve talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved, even though the last marks were made 10 years ago when my kids stopped growing. So one day, while I was at work, my children decided to do something about it.
They hired Jacquie Manning, a professional photographer whose work is about capturing (捕捉) the beautiful things in life, from clear lakes and skies to diamonds and ballgowns. She came to our house while I was at work, and over several hours, took photos of the hundreds of drawings and lines, little grey fingerprints (手印), and old marks. Somehow, she managed to photograph all those years of memories perfectly. Afterwards, she put all the photos together into one image, transforming them into a beautiful history of my family.
Three weeks later, my children’s wonderful gift made its way to me –a life-size photo of the pencil lines and fingerprints that represents entire lifetimes of love and growth.
27. The author used her friends’ example in Paragraph 3 to ________.
A. persuade her family to leave the wall as it was
B. stress the meaning of keeping good memories
C. explain why her house badly needed a new paint job
D. share her memory of motherhood with readers
28. According to the article, it was Jacquie Manning who ________.
A. helped the author paint her new house
B. came up with the idea of the photo gift
C. shot pictures to record the author’s growth stage
D. made a copy of the growth marks on the wall
29. We can infer from the article that the author ________.
A. was strongly against selling their home
B. was not happy with the gift from her family
C. kept marks for family members every year
D. put great love and care in raising her children
30. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Gift Made with Love
B. Advice on Picking up Gifts for Parents
C. Paintings Count
D. Effective Ways to Communicate with Children 第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Memory is our ability to learn something, save it and recall it when needed. Our memories are important to our sense of self, our personalities, and our ability to understand the world.
___32___ There is short-term memory and long-term memory.

___34___ Some memorize better with the help of pictures. Others are helped more by sounds. One thing’s for sure though: If you can put the different kinds of memory together, there can be great results. ___35___ At the same time, you could listen to recordings of the same group of words. These things may help when it comes to memorizing the words.
Imagination and association can be useful too. By imagination, scientists mean picturing a word in your mind, while association means relating the word to something you already know.
A. So why not try pictures with English words?
B. Then how do chimps have better memories than us?
C. Scientists say that there are different types of memory.
D. We may have to rethink what we believe about human memory.
E. Scientists have also found that people memorize things in different ways.

Dear Dylan，

67.阅读下面短文，根据内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。

Nowadays the business of fast food is developing at a rapid speed. Have you ever thought twice before deciding to eat fast food? Even if it is easy to buy and cheap, the risks outweigh(胜过) the five minutes of satisfaction that fast food brings. There are many risks when it comes to eating food that’s made in just a few of seconds.
What you eat can affect your health. People who are addicted to fast food are more likely to suffer from various life-threatening diseases. Obesity(肥胖) can come when fast food is bought often. Fast food is made from a lot of fats and high calories. If it isn’t removed, then you can grow to become obese. Even a small quantity of
fast food contains many calories. People are fooled by its appearance and they tend to eat more. Thus, without knowing, they consume a lot of calories. What’s worse, obesity isn’t the only risk. Heart disease is also a danger. The more fats, sugar and salt you eat, the weaker your heart can grow.
Another concern for most consumers is that they can’t keep track of the sources of the food supplies in fast food restaurants. They never know about the living conditions of the animals killed for meat in those restaurants, like cows, pigs, and chicken. A recent study has suggested that bacteria have been found in about 38% fast food. Even some soft drinks are now infected by food-borne illnesses that usually come from meat.
Although fast food is one of the easiest and cheapest ways of eating, the health risks aren’t worth your life, and risking your life for something that isn’t good for you could cost thousands of dollars in hospital bills. It is important to eat healthily and make good choices when deciding what to put in your body. Don’t be lazy and pick up fast food on your way home from work.

A 本文介绍来自韩国的一种新的食品趋势——mukbang(韩语，意为“美食广播”)。

它是席
卷韩国的一种不同寻常的美食狂热。

21 词义猜测题。

根据第二段中This is a meal where only one person gets to eat, while many viewers watch live shows of hosts eating large quantities of food.“这是一顿只有一个人吃的饭，而许多观众在现场观看主持人吃大量食物的节目。

”可知，Mukbang-a South Korean phrase meaning “eating broadcast”-is an unusual food fanaticism that’s sweeping the country.“mukbang(韩语，意为“美食广播”)是席卷韩国的一种不同寻常的美食狂热。

”中的划线词的意思是“狂热”。

故选B。

22 推理判断题。

根据第三段中thinks that it’s down to “the loneliness of unmarried or uncoupled South Koreans”. He believes that eating on your own can be hard in a country like South Korea, where social eating is such a long tradition. However, Mukbang gives people the feeling that they are part of something larger, it seems.“认为这是由于“未婚或未婚韩国人的孤独”。

他认为，在韩国这样一个社交饮食有着悠久传统的国家，独自吃饭可能会很困难。

然而，Mukbang给人的感觉似乎是，他们是更大的事情的一部分。

”因此推断，节目受欢迎是因为有助于安慰孤独的人。
