第二部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2.5分，满分50分）
A
Every day we go to school and listen to the teacher, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends---you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you---loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.
Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.
36. When you speak to the class, you should speak ________.
A. as slowly as possible
B. in a low voice
C. loudly
D. forcefully
37. Usually, when you speak to the class, the class is ________.
A. noisy
B. quiet
C. having a rest
D. serious
38. The situation in the class is _________that in your house.
A. not very different from
B. sometimes the same as
C. sometimes not the same as
D. not the same as
39. If you are having a conversation with an official, the most important thing for you is_______.
A. to show your ability
B. to be very gentle
C. to make sure that you can be heard
D. to put the official at ease
40. The main idea of this passage is _______.
A. that we should talk in different ways in different situations
B. that we must speak loudly
C. that we must keep silent at any time
D. that we must talk with the class
B
English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.
However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.
And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers
don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. Th at’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.
41. According to the passage ______.
A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different things
B. there should be egg in an eggplant
C. pineapples are the apples on the pine tree
D. boxing rings should be round
42. Which of the following is the correct plural?
A. Beeth.
B. Geese.
C. Meese.
D. Tooth.
43. Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning?
A. A wise man and a wise guy.
B. Overlook and oversee.
C. Quite a lot and quite a few.
D. Hot as hell and cold as hell.
44. The underlined words “wind up” in the last paragraph probably mean “____”.
A. blow
B. roll up
C. get hurt
D. finish
45. Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that
human beings are ______.
A. clever
B. crazy
C. lazy
D. dull
C
During the daytime, many people are busy using their cell phones. They only have time to charge (充电) them at night when they are asleep. But scientists have warned that having a
glowing phone in your bedroom at night could not only affect your sleep, it could also make you fat.
When darkness falls, our bodies begin to produce a hormone(荷尔蒙)called melatonin (褪黑素). It helps our metabolism (新陈代谢)so that our body can change food and drink into energy. When the sun rises, melatonin reduces. This light-dark cycle is good for our health.
But if people charge their phones when they are asleep, the phones release short-wavelength blue light. Although it is not bright enough to light up a room, it can affect our sleep. Therefore, it slows down our metabolism and affects our body to digest food. This may cause obesity (肥胖).
“Blue light is bad for our health because it keeps the mind buzzing (嗡嗡声), ”Simon Kyle, a sleep scientist at Manchester University, told the Daily Mail.
And there is strong scientist data to show the connection between interference and people’s health.
Earlier this year, leading scientists from universities including Oxford, Cambridge and Harvard, warned that a lack of sleep could cause serious health problems, such as cancer, heart disease and obesity.
Kyle advised turning off smart phones and desktop computers a few hours before going to bed. This helps to reduce people’s exposure to artificial (人工的) light.
46. The author writes the text to _______.
A．enrich reader’s life through smart phones and computers
B．warn readers to stay away from phones when sleeping
C．help readers know more about hearing problems
D．teach readers how to eat less food before going to bed
47．The underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refers to a_______.
A．blue light B．the body C．metabolism D．melatonin 48．From Paragraph 3, we learn the blue light from the phones can_______.
A．keep our minds thinking
B．help with our sleep
C．slow down our metabolism
D．light up our room
49．What is the main idea of the text?
A．Charging phones at night may make you fat.
B．Not enough sleep can make us thin and healthy.
C．Turning off computers can make us sleep easily.
D．Artificial light is good for planting wild flowers.
50．What do we know about Simon Kyle? He is _______.
A．a sleep scientist at Manchester University
B．a science student at Harvard University
C．a founder of the British newspaper Daily Mail
D．a famous professor at Oxford university
D
When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?
As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids (眼皮) and the sun hurts their eyes… The more I understood fish, the more I became eff ective at finding and catching them..
When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing
my first boss say, “We all need to think like sales people.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish y ou need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.
51. Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?
A. He could not catch a fish.
B. His father was not patient with him.
C. His father did not teach him fishing.
D. He could not influence a fish as his father did.
52. What did the author’s father really mean?
A. To read about fish.
B. To learn fishing by oneself.
C. To understand what fish think.
D. To study fishing in many ways.
53. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found _________.
A. in deep water on sunny days
B. in deep water on cloudy days
C. in shallow water under sunlight
D. in shallow water under waterside trees
54. After entering the business world, the author found _________.
A. it easy to think like a customer
B. his father’s fishing advice inspiring
C. his first boss’s sales ideas reasonable
D. it difficult to sell services to poor people
55. This passage most likely comes from _________.
A. a fishing guide
B. a novel on childhood
C. a popular sales book
D. a millionaire’s biography
