参考答案：
Chinese-style road crossing is a common phenomenon where large crowds of people cross the road, ignoring/neglecting the traffic lights. The reason why it happens is that people lack traffic (safety) awareness and tend to follow others, thinking that the driver will have to stop the car because many people are crossing the road together. Apparently, such behavior will threaten/ be a threat to people’s safety, result in traffic accidents and also do damage to the image of China. As a consequence, it is suggested that we citizens should obey/observe the traffic rules and try to be civilized citizens. In addition, not only should strict and effective measures be taken to punish those who break the rules but also more footbridges should be built to make it more convenient for pedestrians to cross the road.
三、阅读理解
20. We live in a time when technology has enabled everyone to be a journalist. Yet not everyone has the proper training. Whether out of ignorance or out of a sense of honor, some of the journalism online has done a better job of changing public opinion than showing the whole
truth.
Two recent stories are perfect reminders of the difference between the urge to change minds and basic journalism ethics(道德标准).
“A college kid took some birds from a nearby tree and was sentenced to 10 years in prison,” went a recent online headline from the Chinese Internet. The accompanying vote showed that 85 percent of respondents sided with the student. Some joked that most boys would be guilty of such a crime because everyone had stolen birds when they were children.
Left out of the original report was the fact that the birds in question were falcons, which are on the nation’s list of protected, endangered species. Birdwatchers also said that it was unlikely Yan Xiaotian, the 21-year-old defendant, had found the 12 birds in one tree. For this particular species, he had to search a much larger area.
For me, the most important questions are: Did he know it was illegal before he took the birds and did he know that before he sold them?
Follow-up reporting has found that the evidence showed that Yan knew what he was doing. The only point of uncertainty is the very first time he took the first birds when he could be unaware of their status and value. As a matter of fact, the prosecutor(公诉人) started out asking for a light punishment, but took a U-turn when data from Yan’s cellphone clearly showed that he had stolen them.
The punishment, while sounding harsh, followed the law almost to the letter. The court has since said it would review the case, a sign of giving in to public pressure.
Let’s look at the second story, which can be read as either “E lderly man had to walk in his shorts for hours in Sanya after his bike was taken by the city’s quasi-police”(城管) or “Retired official illegally parked his bike for a swim and made the city apologize and fire a low-paid city management staff member”.
Both played up(渲染) different parts of the same story. For me, Bi Guochang’s age and former official title are not relevant to the case. The key is whether he indeed parked his bike illegally and whether proper procedures were being followed by taking it away and making him get it back. Yet the reports focused on the image of an old man walking only in his shorts. He could have phoned his family for backup or taken a taxi home first before complaining, as most would do in that situation.
Such stories read like badly-written morality tales, with everything in black and white and a simple yes-or-no message. Real life is much more complicated. Reporters have to be neutral and
avoid taking sides too early.
China Daily

【分析】
这是一篇新闻评论。

作者通过对社会关注的两则新闻报道的叙述，意在说明在线新闻在报道事件时要基于事实本来的面目而不是偏袒某一方。

【28题详解】
细节理解题。

由第四段Left out of the original report was the fact that the birds in question were falcons, which are on the nation’s list of protected, endangered species和第五段For me, the most important questions are: Did he know it was illegal before he took the birds and did he
know that before he sold them?第六段but took a U-turn when data from Yan’s cellphone clearly showed that he had stolen them可知，Yan Xiaotian被判十年的原因是他偷了被列入了国家保护的濒危物种猎鹰，并将它们出售。

故C选项正确。

【29题详解】
推理判断题。

由第七段The punishment, while sounding harsh, followed the law almost to the letter可知，这种惩罚虽然听起来很严厉，但几乎是遵照法律来判决的。

此后，法院表示将对此案进行复审，这是向公众压力妥协的迹象。

由此推理出，作者认为法官仍应严格遵守法律。

故A选项正确。

【30题详解】
推理判断题。

由第九段可知，Bi Guochang的年龄和以前的官衔与案件无关。

关键是他是否确实非法停车，以及是否按照适当的程序把自行车拿走并让他把它拿回来。

然而，这些报道集中在一个老人只穿着短裤走路的形象上。

他可以先打电话给家人请求支援，或者在抱怨之前先坐出租车回家，就像大多数人在这种情况下所做的那样。

由此推断出这样的报道只是集中于表面的现象而不是事实的真相。

故A选项正确。

【31题详解】
标题归纳题。

作者通过对社会关注的两则新闻报道的叙述，意在说明在线新闻报道事件时要基于事件本来的面目而不是偏袒某一方。

故D选项正确。

【点睛】抓住特定信息进行逆向或正向推理
做此类试题要善于抓住某一段话中的关键信息，即某些关键词或短语去分析、推理、判断，利用逆向思维或正面推理，从而推断出这句话所隐含的深层含义。

小题2要求推理判断出“作者暗示着什么样的观点”。

由The punishment, while sounding harsh, followed the law almost to the letter. The court has since said it would review the case, a sign of giving in to public pressure 可知，这种惩罚虽然听起来很严厉，但几乎是遵照法律来判决的。

此后，法院表示将对此案进行复审，这是向公众压力妥协的迹象。

所以我们推断出，作者认为法院不应该屈服于公众的压力，因为这个案件是遵照法律来判决的，所以作者认为法官应该严格执行法律。

故A 选项正确。

21.
“We don’t have rush hours any more”, said Mr. Charles Mac Lean, who runs the nation’s busiest road. “We have rush periods, and they keep getting longer and longer.”
Mac Lean was describing Chicago’s 235 miles of expressway. But the same might be said about almost any of the expressways that have become an important part of American city life—and about the heavy traffic that often blocks them. In Chicago, a computerized system has been developed that controls traffic on the city’s seven expressways. Now one man—a controller—can follow the movement of Chicago’s traffic by looking at a set of lights. The system uses electronic sensors that are built into each expressway, half a mile apart. Several times a second, the computer receives information from each sensor and translates it into green, yellow, or red lights on a map in the control room. A green light means the traffic is moving forty-five miles an hour, yellow means thirty to forty-five miles an hour and red means heavy traffic—cars standing still or moving less than thirty miles an hour.
“See that red light near Austin Avenue?” the controller asked a visitor. “That’s a repair truck fixing the road, and the traffic has to go around it”.
At the Roosevelt Road entrance to the expressway, the light kept changing from green to red and back to green again. “A lot of trucks get on the expressway there,” the controller explain ed. “They can’t speed up as fast as cars.”
The sensors show immediately where an accident or a stopped car is blocking traffic, and a truck is sent by radio to clear the road. The system has lowered the number of accidents by 18 percent. There are now 1.4 deaths on Chicago’s expressways for each one hundred million miles traveled, while in other parts of the country there are 2.6.
Traffic experts say that the Chicago system is the “coming thing”. Systems like Chicago’s are already in use on some expressways in Los Angeles and Houston. “Chicago has taken the lead,” says New York City’s traffic director; and he adds, “We are far behind…”
63. How does the controller follow Chicago’s traffic?
A. By controlling the traffic lights.
B. By operating a computer in the control room.
C. By sending a truck to clear the roads.
D. By looking at a set of lights on the map in the control room.
64. The underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refers to ____________.
A. a truck which needs repairing
B. a red light
C. Austin Avenue
D. a truck doing repairs on the road
65. Which of the statements is true about the computerized system in Chicago?
A. It changes rush hours into rush periods.
B. It saves a lot of labor and meanwhile prevents some deaths.
C. It is the first system of this kind in America.
D. It will soon be followed by New York City.
66. What might be the best title for this passage?
A. Computerized Traffic Control System
B. Rush Periods Getting Longer
C. No Rush Hours Any More
D. Sensors on Expressways
参考答案：
DDBA。
