M：I went to see a Lady Gaga concert this weekend.She was amazing!

M：Well，I think honesty is the best policy.

M：Hey，Susie.Can I borrow your car tonight?
W：No！The last time you borrowed it，you returned it with the gas tank empty. M：Did I？I'm sorry，baby.I promise to fill the tank this time.
W：What do you need it for?
M：I want to take my mom out to dinner.
W：And I'm not invited?
M：You can come if you want.I thought you'd probably have plans with your friends. W：I do.But I'd rather go with you.Don't you think it's time for me to meet your mother?

W：Yeah，I'll be at it all night.
M：When's the big test?
W：Not for three days.But I have too many things to remember before then.
M：You're taking this Spanish class so seriously.Don't you think you should lighten up a bit?

M：Unfortunately，we need to order the parts，and we can't get started until they arrive.If I order them now，they'll be here this afternoon，or tomorrow morning at the latest.
W：I see.Well，why don't I just bring my car back in the morning？There's a show I really want to see downtown tonight.
M：I don't think that's a good idea.You're risking your life by driving this car.If I were you，I'd check the bus schedule.
Text 9
W：Hey，Paul.You're still having Thanksgiving dinner at my house on Thursday，right?
M：Yeah.Thanks again for the invitation.I was worried I'd have to spend it alone after my parents announced they'd be in Finland.
W：I think it's strange that you're not going with them.Is it because of the cold weather in Northern Europe?
M：Not exactly.I have a lot of work to do next week.
W：Well，I'm glad you won't be alone on a holiday.It'll be great to have you celebrate with us.The more the merrier!
M：Exactly.How many people will be there?
W：Let's see...my parents，my grandpa，my sister，my brother-in-law，my niece，and my two cousins...plus us.So，ten people altogether.

know！I'll bring pie.I'll make a great pumpkin pie.
W：Sounds delicious，but my sister has already volunteered for dessert.Look，don't worry about it.There will be tons of food：turkey，stuffing，green beans，sweet potatoes...
M：Wow，I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.How about this—I'll bring a nice bottle of wine.You can never have too much of that.
W：Well，isn't that the truth？Sounds good to me.

New Orleans，Louisiana is known throughout the world for its food，music，and festivals.Every year，many visitors come to this lively city，and almost all of them spend time in the French Quarter，New Orleans' oldest neighborhood.Despite its name，you won't find many French buildings in the French Quarter.Two large fires in the 18th century destroyed most of the buildings that were built under French rule.
New Orleans' best-known street is Bourbon Street.It is appreciated for its lively bars and restaurants，but it's most famous for its annual Mardi Gras celebration.During Mardi Gras，several million people show up on Bourbon Street and party for a week straight.
Since 2005，New Orleans has been in the spotlight because of Hurricane Katrina，a Category 5 hurricane that destroyed much of the city.However，the French Quarter was not affected by the hurricane.It is a very old neighborhood，and it was built on higher and drier land.Because of this，it did not flood like the parts of the city that were built in the 20th century.

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
A new study published in the Journal of Marriage and Family claims that all that
time you spend parenting just doesn't matter.But it's a claim that，despite the enthusiastic and widespread coverage by the media，does not hold__water．The research suggests that child outcomes (including behavior problems，emotional problems，and academic performance) are barely connected with the time that parents spend with their children.The researchers examined the time diaries of 1，600 children，looking at parenting time and outcomes when the kids were aged 3 to 11 in 1997，and again in 2002，when they were between 8 and 16.(A time diary is a detailed report of all activities you carry out in a day.)
This research largely reflects the failure of the authors to correctly measure parental input (投入)．It just looked at time diaries from two particular days—one a weekday and the other a weekend day.
Trying to get a sense of the time you spend parenting from a single day's diary is a bit like trying to measure your income from a single day.If yesterday was payday，you looked rich，but if it's not，you would be reported as poor.You get a clearer picture only by looking at your income—or your parenting time—over a more meaningful period.
What you did yesterday should not be taken as representative of what you did last year.This is why most high-quality studies of parenting time focus instead on how often parents read to their children，play with them or help them with homework over a period of a month or longer—long enough to represent their different approaches to parenting.
As an exhausted parent who doesn't get enough time to work out，and who hasn't seen a movie for months，I understand why so many of us might seize on studies suggesting that we should take more time for ourselves.Perhaps we should.But I agree with Ariel Kalil，a developmental psychologist，on the suggestion “that when parents spend high-quality time with their children，their children are more likely to succeed.”

American Pharoah proved it's not impossible to win the Triple Crown (三重冠)．On Saturday，June 6，the horse rode into history after winning the Belmont Stakes horse race in Long Island，New York.The Triple Crown is a victory by a horse in three different races—the Kentucky Derby，the Preakness，and the Belmont Stakes—in the same racing year.The 3-year-old horse is the first horse in 37 years to win the Triple Crown.He is only the 12th Triple Crown winner in the history of horse racing.
Bob Baffert，American Pharoah's trainer said，“He did great yesterday.It was a beautiful moment.”
The Triple Crown races last for five weeks on circular tracks of different lengths.The races are short，but the horses use a great amount of energy dashing to the finish line.The Belmont Stakes is the last one of the races，and the longest.American Pharoah led the entire race and won the race.
Taking home the Triple Crown is no easy matter.The horses require many hours of training to prepare for the intense demands of racing.The raw talent and genetics of the horses also play an important role in developing winners.“Nobody__can__make__a__slow__horse__a__fast__horse，”American Pharoah owner Ahmaed Zayat said.
Victor Espinoza is the jockey who rode American Pharoah.He lost his last two Triple Crown tries with different horses，but was able to bring home the prize after Saturday's race.“I looked at that prize and I was very excited and kind of angry because two times before I couldn't get it，” Espinoza said.
Before leaving Belmont Park，American Pharoah joined photographers and fans on the grass.He posed for pictures and let people from the crowd pet him.
It will be up to American Pharoah's trainer to map out his next racing
steps.“He's an athlete.We have to keep him moving，”said Baffert.“He's so happy when he's on that track.”

Although she was to become one of the world's most attractive sex symbols，Marilyn Monroe's start in life was very，very far from attractive.Born in Los Angeles on June 1，1926，Norma Jeane Mortenson spent most of her childhood in and out of foster homes (寄养家庭) and orphanages (孤儿院)．“No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl，” she once said.“All little girls should be told they're pretty，even if they aren't.”
By 16，Norma Jeane was a high school dropout and married，although she was a greedy reader and lover of the classics and would later take literature courses at University of California at Los Angeles.When her husband was sent to the South Pacific，19-year-old Norma Jeane worked in a munitions factory (军工厂) in Southern California.
David Conover，a photographer working on a story for Yank magazine about women helping the war effort，photographed the curly-haired lady working on an airplane.He then referred her to another photographer，Bill Carroll，who was seeking
a “good looking plain Jane” to photograph and gave her $20 for the work.From there，her modeling career was launched.
She landed an agent and a contract with Twentieth Century Fox，and divorced her first husband.Marilyn Monroe，the curly-haired bombshell，was born.She then became a very famous actress，model，and singer，starring in a number of commercially successful motion pictures during the 1950s and early 1960s.
Monroe died at the age of 36.Throughout her all-too-short life，Monroe had the rare ability to combine an intense sensuality with a genuine innocence.As her friend and favorite photographer，George Barris，observed，“She was a sweet little girl in a woman's body.” Monroe herself once explained she knew what the photographers said about her: “Don't let anyone tell you it is in her body.You know where it is.It's in her mind.”
