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）Bees are unimaginably territorial (有地盘意识的), fighting to death to defend their home with painful stings (螫刺). But killer bees are particularly fierce. They appeared after African bees were imported to Brazil in
the 1950s. By the 1980s, they had spread north to the United States, outgunning native bees along the way. Their massive attacks have killed more than 1,000 people.
Mario Palma, a biochemist at Sao Paulo State University in Rio Claro, Brazil, who studies social behavior in bees, wanted to understand the basis of this aggression. So he and his colleagues swung a black leather ball in front of some killer bees and collected the bees whose stingers got stuck in the ball during the attack. They also collected killer bees that remained in the cell. The analysis suggested that killer bee brains have two proteins that—in the aggressive bees—quickly break into pieces to form a so-called “neuropeptide (神经肽)”, they reported this week in the Journal of Proteome Research.
Palma and his colleagues already knew that be e brains have these two proteins. “We were astonished when we identified some very simple neuropeptides, which were produced in a few seconds,” Palma said. Killer bees that remained in the cell did not make these neuropeptides, he reported. And when his team put these neuropeptides into young, less aggressive bees, they “became aggressive like older individuals”.
Palma added that these neuropeptides also increase the production of energy and alarm chemicals. They could also encourage the nerve cells in ki ller bees needed to make the stinging attack. “There is a fine biochemical regulation in the killer bee brain,” he said. Researchers have found these neuropeptides in other insects, but few had associated them with “fight” behavior.
1、What is special about bees?
A．They are particularly fierce. B．They show territorial behavior.
C．They were imported to Brazil. D．They live in harmony with other insects.
2、Why did Palma and his colleagues perform the experiment?
A．To understand bees’ social behavior.
B．To study why killer bees are aggressive.
C．To prove bees love flying around.
D．To learn how bees communicate with each other.
3、What finding surprised the researchers during the experiment?
A．There are two proteins in killer bee brains.
B．Y oung killer bees are fiercer than older ones.
C．The killer bees make an attack immediately.
D．Killer bee brains produce neuropeptide quickly.
4、What will the author probably talk about following the last paragraph?
A．The form of these neuropeptides in killer bees.
B．The function of these neuropeptides in other insects.
C．The application of these scientific methods in other insects.
D．The production of energy and alarm chemicals in killer bees.
22．（8分）University of Pennsylvania researchers say that for the first time they have linked social media use to increases in depression and loneliness．The idea that social media is anything but social when it comes to mental health has been talked about for years，but not many studies have managed to actually link the two．To do that，Penn researchers，led by psychologist Melissa Hunt，designed a study that focused on WeChat，Snapchat and Instagram．The study was conducted with 143 participants，who before they began，completed a mood survey and sent along photos of their battery screens，showing how often they were using their phones to access social media．"We set out to do a much more complete study which attempts to imitate real life．" Hunt said．
The study divided the participants into two groups：The first group was allowed to maintain their normal social media habits．The other，the control group，was restricted to 10 minutes per day on social media．The restrictions were put in place for three weeks and then the participants returned and were tested for outcomes such as fear of missing out，anxiety，depression and loneliness．
The results showed a very clear link between social media use and increased levels of depression and loneliness．"Using less social media than you normally do would lead to significant decreases in both depression and loneliness，" Hunt said．
Social media invites what Hunt calls "downward social comparison．" "When you're online，it can sometimes seem that everyone else is cooler and having more fun and included in more things and you're left out，" Hunt said．And that's just generally discouraging．"Every minute you spend online is a minute you are not doing your work or not meeting a friend for dinner or having a deep conversation with your roommate．" And these real life activities are the ones that can encourage self﹣esteem and self﹣worth，Hunt added．
"People are on their devices，and that's not going to change，" she said．But as in life，a bit of control goes a long way．
1、Before the study was conducted，the participants completed a survey to．
A．imitate people's real life
B．link loneliness to depression
C．show their use of social media
D．prove social media is important
2、The results of the study showed using less social media would result in．
A．people's fear of missing out
B．higher levels of depression
C．obvious relief in loneliness
D．lower levels of happiness
3、In Hunt's opinion，which activity benefits more to mental health？
A．Hiking out with friends．
B．Making comparison with others．
C．Playing computer games in spare time．
D．Logging onto social media and having fun．
4、Which can be the best title of the passage？
A．A Study on Social Media．
B．How to Improve Mental Health．
C．People Addicted to Social Media．
D．Social Media Influences Mental Health．
23．（8分）The other day I was shopping at the local Chinese grocery store．There was a line at the fish counter，but only one staff person was there to take care of the customers．Some customers ordered quite an amount of fish for that staff person to work on．At last I was the second in line；all I wanted was a couple of crabs and should get out of there in no time．
Noticing it was very busy at the fish counter，another staff person came over to help．I was ready to be served，but the staff person went to the end of the line and began to help a couple of ladies with snails （蜗牛）．The customer in front of me，being served，turned around and looked at me sympathetically，and the customer behind me called to the staff person，"You should start her，"pointing at me．He was，well，ignored．
If someone asked me，"What is the most important rule to follow in America？"I would reply without hesitation，"Wait your turn at all times．"Wherever you go here in this country，you will find people waiting in a line quietly to get anything：whether in the supermarkets，department stores，bus stops，or gas stations，it's just a matter of waiting your turn．In a larger sense，"wait your turn"is more than just a guideline﹣it is a very basic norm （准则）that reflects the fundamental value of the western cultures．But in some situations your turn does not always come based on when you get there and how long you have waited in line，just like my case at the store．Even though this did not often happen，it did make me feel upset．
1、What happened to the author at the store？
A．He wasn't served upon his order．
B．He was ill﹣treated by a customer．
C．He was asked to be served later．
D．He was asked to do others a favor．
2、What is the author's opinion about Queuing Rule？
A．Wait until being served．
B．Serve people as one likes．
C．Wait until your turn comes．
D．First come，later served．
3、What does the underlined word "this" in the last paragraph refer to？
A．His belief．
B．His experience．
C．His culture．
D．His rule．
4、Why did the author write the text？
A．To emphasize his kindness to others．
B．To introduce some western cultures to us．
C．To show his disbelief in Queuing Rule．
D．To express his belief and his feeling．

25．（10分）The Handshake
I don’t remember the exact date I met Marty for the first time. Like a lot of people who want to get through a checkout line, I found my thoughts on speed, nothing more. The line I was standing in wasn’t moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier, who was receiving money from customers.
He was an old man in his sixties. I thought, well, it probably took him a little longer to get the jobs done. For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before he began scanning the goods they were purchasing. Sure, his words were the usual, “How’s it going?” But he did something different—he actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and talk with them briefly.
I thought it was strange, but I guessed I had grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of
a conversation without thinking. Usually, after a whil e, you don’t give any thought to the question and just say something back quietly.
This old cashier seemed sincere about wanting to know how people were feeling. Meanwhile, the high-tech cash register rang up their purchases and he announced what they owed. When customers handed money to him, he pushed the appropriate keys, the cash drawer popped open, and he counted out their change.
Then magic happened.
He placed the change in his left hand, walked around the counter to the customers, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. As their hands met, the old cashier looked the customers in the eyes. “I want to thank you for
shopping here today,” he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye.” The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless.
Now it was my turn. I glanced down at the name tag on his red waistcoat, the kind experienced Wal-Mart cashier wore. It read, “Marty.”
Marty told me how much I owed and I handed him some money. The next thing I knew he was standing beside me, offering his right hand and holding my change in his left hand. His kind eyes locked onto mine. Smiling, and with a firm handshake…
1、While the author stood in the checkout line, she felt ______.
A．comfortable B．enthusiastic
C．impatient D．embarrassed
2、In the opinion of the author, people tended to ______.
A．remain calm while having a talk B．talk about unimportant topics

A．he spent as much time as possible serving customers
B．he was patient with all the questions from customers
C．he showed particular interest in customers’ personal life
D．he expressed his sincerity while giving back the change
4、What can we infer from the passage?
A．Marty was a talkative man.
B．Marty cared a lot about what he did.
C．The author failed to get along well with others.
D．The author was dissatisfied with such a waste of time.
