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）Children often suffer pain and insecurity when their parents separate.When my ex-husband and I
split up after 10 years of marriage,our daughter was 5 years old and my son only 3.We decided to consult a psychologist about the best way to explain this new situation to the children.
She shared with us this special story about a land turtle and a sea turtle,which we then used to help them better comprehend.
Once upon a time,a land turtle (Mommy) met a sea turtle (Daddy) close to a beautiful shore.Soon they fell deeply in love and decided to get married.For a time,they continued to live at the water's edge so that Mommy could sit on the sand and keep dry and warm,while Daddy sat in the shallow water to keep cool.A few years later two baby turtles arrived (you both!).They were very special indeed and looked a little like each of their parents.
But as the years went by,Daddy sea turtle started spending more and more time in the ocean as he traveled deeper and deeper to look for pearls.Mommy land turtle also started wandering up into the sands to hunt for food in the woods.Little by little,Daddy and Mommy turtle started to drift further and further apart.Finally one day,Mommy and Daddy turtle decided they didn't want to live together anymore.The little turtles continued to spend time with each of their parents.They made lots of friends with all the fish,dolphins and whales in the ocean and also many friends with the rabbits,deer,and foxes in the woods.In fact they grew up to be a new kind of turtle that could live both in the ocean and on the land.
Over the years,this tale of the land and sea turtle has helped my children cope with and accept the fact that my marriage to their father was over.They know that we once loved each other very much and they were born out of true love.
1、The underlined “They” in the second paragraph refers to.
A．the two baby turtles B．the land turtle and the sea turtle
C．the author and her ex-husband D．the author's children
2、When the parents divorce,their children often feel .
A．relieved B．unsafe C．pleased D．annoyed
3、In the third paragraph,the underlined phrase “drift apart” probably means.
A．make sense B．become disconnected C．break down D．get excited
4、We can probably find the pas sage in the column “”.
A．Culture B．Career C．Parenting D．Education
22．（8分）At school, I was in the top set for maths. My teachers recommended that I study economics and statistics as my A-level subjects, but I had my mind set on a life fulfilled by the arts.
In fact, I was a victim of a gender stereotype made stronger since birth, that men do science and maths and women
do arts or languages. Computer science, technology and physics just did not figure in my teenage world view. Nobody popular in my school chose to study those subjects.
Reality struck hard when I began attending job interviews and interviewers would say: “It’s great that you speak foreign languages, but what else do you do?” Nobody asked my friends who had studied science or te chnology those questions.
A survey recently showed that three of the best-paid jobs for women are in the technology sector. It’s a sector that really can change the world. We must show girls that technology has an effect on every industry out there, from fashion to architecture to journalism. Anybody can learn to code and these days it’s as important as reading and writing. I’ve realized that at university I’d achieved the wrong kind of literacy. Not being able to code limit your impact on the world far more than an ignorance of great literature.
Now I have a five-year-old daughter. I don’t want her to blindly follow gender roles the way I did. I want her to know the fact that a science or technical degree will not limit her creativity but expand it and broaden her horizons far more than my arts background could. I’m exposing her to Minecraft and apps, which help improve analytical thinking and problem solving skills. I’m hoping that my daughter will discover and accept her potentials in science and want to change the world.
1、What does the underlined phrase “gender stereotype” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．Personal learning style. B．Sex characteristic.
C．Conventional sex concept. D．Profession difference.
2、According to the author, which may be the benefit of learning science?
A．Increasing job possibility. B．Winning popularity.
C．Improving language competence. D．Enriching imagination.
3、How did the author feel for her major choice?
A．Satisfied. B．Active. C．Discouraged. D．Regretful.
4、What may be the best title for the text?
A．Art or Science, Either is OK B．Good Subjects, Good Future
C．Girls, Choose More Wisely D．Catch Chances, Change the World
23．（8分）Tired of dealing with those slow, dumb, and unfriendly hotel staff? How about a hotel that provides chance for minimal interaction with the" people" running the hotel? In the Henn Na Hotel in Japan, there aren’t any!
Being called “Weird Hotel” by locals, the Henn Na Hotel opened in 2016 in the town of Sasebo, is staffed almost by robots. The robots are not just for fun. They do a large amount of work, saving time and money as well. They can greet you when you enter. Also, they play music in the lounge, inform you of the breakfast menu, and control the lights in your
hotel room, etc.
Thinking that the hotel should be unique and appealing, the owners made each robot different from each other with a variety of shapes and sizes. One of the robots behind the front desk is designed to look like a dinosaur, “If you want to check in, push one.” the dinosaur says. Then the guest can type the information on a touch panel screen. Inside the room, there’s a small robot called Tuly in the shape of a pink tulip (郁金香). Tuly can answer simple questions like "what time is it?" and "What will the weather be like tomorrow?" With no switches on the wall, Tuly can also turn the room lights on or off if it's told to.
But how do things like check-in and room access work? Well, the screen at the reception captures and registers a digital image of the guest's face during check-in which is used to get access 10 rooms instead of traditional keys. However. the reception shall also provide you card keys on request in case you wish to keep it subtle!
If you're wondering what happens in the case of an emergency, you need not worry. Humans do step in when it's of great importance. According to the hotels website, there are a few human staff members who are available on-call 24X7 and help guests in the case of an emergency.
1、The robots in the Henn Na Hotel can do the following things for the guests EXCEPT______.
A．tell the breakfast menu B．control the lights in the room
C．play music in the lounge D．respond to all the requirements
2、What can we learn from the passage?
A．The Hern Na Hotel is managed all by robots.
B．A dinosaur-like robot will guide guests to check.
C．No human staff can be connected even in an emergency.
D．Guests can have access to rooms by using traditional keys.
3、It can be inferred that the owners of the hotel_________.
A．entertain the guests all the time in person
B．are imaginative and have creative thinking
C．are knowledgeable and acquire advanced technology
D．attach great importance to the social image of the hotel
4、What's the main idea of this passage?
A．It advocates people to promote hotel equipment
B．It compares the robots with human staff in a hotel.
C．It introduces a new hotel staffed by intelligent robots
D．It describes how wonderful artificial intelligence is
24．（8分）The World’s Greatest Bookstores
Cafebreria El Péndulo, Mexico City, Mexico
Part cafe, part coffee house, part bar and part bookstore, Cafebreria El Péndulo is located in Mexico City. Books line the shelves from the ceiling to the floor, and live plants add lots of green. The store is named for a huge pendulum (钟摆) hanging from its ceiling.
Stanfords, London and Bristol, England
Established in 1853, Stanfords boasts that it offers the world's largest selection of travel books and maps. It also sells travel accessories. Look for the enormous National Geographic Map of the World in the flagship store in London; it was created in 2003 to celebrate the store’s 150th birthday.
Rizzoli, New Y ork City, New York
For almost a half century, Rizzoli has been considered as one of the best independent bookstores in the US. It specializes in illustrated (有插图的) books about the way people works and lives, such as fashion, photography, decoration design, cooking and architecture. Take a master class in flower design, attend a lecture and book signing, or drop in for a cooking show or book a launch party.
El Ateneo Grand Splendid, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Often described as one of the world’s most beautiful bookstores, El Ateneo is housed in an historic theater much as it was when the theater opened in 1919. After customers browse the shelves, they can drink coffee and listen to music from a stage hidden in red curtains where tango dancers once performed. While most of the store’s books are in Spanish, they are available in a range of subjects.

25．（10分）Experts say that if food were a country, it would rank second behind the US as one of the biggest greenhouse gas polluters. The reason is the rising demand for meat. Animal farming is responsible for14.5 percent of global greenhouse gas methane(甲烷) emissions(排放). While cows are the worse contributors, pigs, sheep, donkeys and other animals play a part as well.
Animal agriculture also causes land to become damaged, water to be polluted and forests to get destroyed. With the world population forecast to rise to 9.8 billion by 2050, things are only looking worse for our already decreasing natural resources, While going vegetarian(素食的)would help meat consumption too deep - rooted in most western diets to allow for such a sharp, permanent change. That is why experts are advocating substituting some of the beef, chicken, or pork with ordinary insects！
Insects, which grow into adults within a matter of months, if not weeks, are ready for consumption much faster than domestic(驯养的) animals. They also require much less room，use less water and food, and produce far less greenhouse gas than animals
Of the 1.1 million insect species worldwide, scientists have identified 1.700 as eatable. Among them are ants, grasshoppers, grubs, and earthworms. Just like animals, each insect has a different taste. Tree worms taste just like pork, and grubs are similar to smoked meat
While eating insects might be a new concept for Western people, over 2 billion people worldwide consume insects as a regular part of their diet. Besides being delicious, insects are high in protein, have very few calories, and are free of the saturated(饱和)at found in animal meat. Insects can be prepared in many ways. Creative cooks can use them to cook protein-rich soup make baked treats, and even fry a few with vegetables. So eat insects -both your body and Mother Earth will thank you for it ！
1、Which of the following animals are responsible for the most global methane emissions?
A．Cows B．Pigs C．Sheep D．Donkeys
2、How is the third paragraph mainly developed？
A．By asking questions B．By providing examples.
C．By listing the numbers D．By making comparisons.
3、What do tree worms taste like?
A．Pig meat B．Tomato soup. C．Fresh vegetables. D．Fried chicken.
4、What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．Few people eat insects regularly. B．Ordinary insects are high in fat.
C．Saturated fat is harmful to health. D．Insects contain various vitamins

21、The Humane Society of Utah,a non-profit organization,is the largest shelter in the state because it takes every animal that can be lawfully accepted.The shelter employed photographer Guinevere Shuster,from New York,who came up with a creative way to find new homes for the dogs.She took lively photos for them.
The 31-year-old created sets of four pictures showing the playful and serious sides of each
animal.Guinevere Shuster tried her best to show these dogs the way they'd really look if you allowed them into your life.She said,“I'm always trying to imagine better ways to make the poor animals attractive to the public.The photos show their great personalities and are a much better way than presenting them as the sad dogs waiting to be taken home.I'm lucky because I get to connect the two things I love most,animals and photography.”
Guinevere says she finds it easy to work with dogs.She said,“It's just me and the dog in th e office so they can pay their attention to the photo-taking.I use a lot of treats and some funny noises I've learned to get the dogs' attention. A fun method is to throw treats at the dogs-it's useful for getting unusual looks from them.”
Since starting the project,a number of dogs have been taken home by dog lovers after they saw Guinevere's pictures on the Humane Society of Utah's Facebook page.In the last three years,she has
