第二部分:阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节：阅读理解（共15小题，每题2分共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
The majority of the world’s most powerful and influential pos itions remain in men’s hands。

But the
imbalance is gradually tilting —and it shows. In 2015，some of the biggest news and successes resulted from the actions of women. Here are the new faces who inspired，defied，guided or moved the world。

Loretta Lynch
Traditionally，the top U。

S。

law—enforcement official is not well—known outside of the United States，but Attorney General Loretta Lynch not only made headlines around the world，she also brought a particular kind of change that billions of people had longed for but thought was out of reach。

Lynch surprised the world by taking on the entrenched（根深蒂固）, corrupt officials of FIFA, the governing body of the world's most popular sport, soccer。

She had the bravery to do what nobody else had dared。

FIFA officials, she declared, had engaged in "rampant（猛烈的), systematic and deep-rooted” corruption,and it was time to "bring wrongdoers to justice.”
Ellen Johnson Sirleaf
When the Ebola epidemic(蔓延）took on alarming proportions in West Africa，it was tough for Liberia, one of the centers of the crisis。

Ellen Johnson Sirleaf，the leader of Liberia，pleaded for international help。

One reason the world responded is that the unbeatable President has international moral stature。

She played a key role in guiding her country after cruel civil wars and received the Nobel Peace Prize for her effort。

Johnson Sirleaf not only helped bring an end to the epidemic, she did something just as remarkable: She revealed her emotions and admitted her faults. When it was all over she said she had been afraid, and conceded(承认）she had made big mistakes as a result of her fear。

Then she showed gratitude. Instead of collecting honors，she thanked all the people and countries who made victory against Ebola possible。

Aung San Suu Kyi
The symbolic Burmese leader, also a Nobel Peace Prize winner，put the skeptics and the cynics（愤世嫉俗）to shame. To those who said nonviolent resistance could not defeat a vicious armed opponent, she seemed to say "just watch。

"
Following the footsteps of Mahatma Gandhi and the Rev。

Martin Luther King Jr。

，she endured a long struggle against the pitiless military rulers of Myanmar。

She gained international support for economic approval that helped persuade the generals to loosen their control, leading to elections in 2015 and an overwhelming victory for her National League for Democracy。

She remains a global symbol of peaceful resistance。

Tu Youyou
It's a tough challenge to find a single human being who may be responsible for saving as many lives。

The Chinese pharmacologist Tu Youyou，one of three winners of this year's Nobel Prize for Medicine, took a different route in attacking one of the world’s biggest killers, malaria.
Research into ancient Chinese texts led her to discover the compounds that help prevent a disease that still kills about half a million people every year, transmitted by mosquitoes in water—logged jungles。

The discovery has resulted in medication that has saved millions of lives. 21．The main purpose of the passage is to ____________
A. tell us that men’s status in the world was becoming less important in 2015
B。

show readers the importance of several great women who were powerful in 2015
C. analyze the reasons why some great women became the 2015 biggest news
D. introduce several great women and their achievements in 2015 22．Among the women mentioned above，who did not win the Nobel Prize?
A。

Aung San Suu Kyi B. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf C Loretta Lynch。

D。

Tu Youyou
23．Ellen Johnson Sirleafwas regarded as remarkable for the following EXCEPT
A. that she contributed a lot to preventing the epidemic from spreading
B. that she appealed for international help in fighting against Ebola.
C。

that she bravely acknowledged her fear and her mistakes。

D. that she expressed her gratitude to those who fought Ebola
together。

24．It can be inferred from the passage that _
A。

some great women's successes are shaking the men's control of the world。

B。

thanks to Tu Youyou's discovery, the patients attacked by malaria will undoubtedly be saved.
C。

Aung San Suu Kyi won the victory with the guidance of Gandhi and Martin Luther King。

D. many people have dealt with the corruption of FIFA，but failed。

B
The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco,California is one of the world’s most beautiful bridges. It is also one of the most visited places in the world. Vehicles（车辆)cross the bridge an average of 41 million times each year.More than 1800 hundred million vehicles have used the bridge since it opened more than 70 years ago。

The bridge was painted “International Orange” because that color went well with the natural surroundings。

The color also is easier to see in the heavy fog that often covers the area。

But the Golden Gate Bridge was not named for its orange color. It was named for the body of water that it crosses，the Golden Gate Strait.
The Golden Gate Strait is the entrance to the San Francisco Bay from the Pacific Ocean。

The Golden Gate Bridge links the city of San Francisco with Marin County，California。

Planning for the bridge began in the 1920s when the area around San Francisco was growing。

People living in the area needed another way to get to the city besides small ferries（渡船)．
Joseph Strauss was the chief engineer for the project. Work began in 1934.Mr.Strauss demanded the strongest safety protections in the history of bridge building. These included the first use of “hard hats" to protect the workers' heads and special glasses to protect their eyes.
A special safety net was suspended(挂)under the bridge。

This net saved the lives of 19 men during the construction. However，11 other workers were killed when they fell from the bridge through the net。

Still，this was a new safety record for the time。

The Golden Gate Bridge opened in 1937.It extends 1280 meters across the water. The total length is 2737 meters。

It was the largest suspension bridge（吊桥)in the world until 1964.That is when the Verrazano Narrows Bridge opened in New York City. Today,the Golden Gate Bridge is the ninth longest suspension bridge in the world。

25．The Golden Gate Bridge was named after ________．
A．the local climate B．the color of a paint
C．its natural surroundings D．the strait it crosses
26．How did people cross the Golden Gate Strait before the bridge was built?
A．By plane。

B．By road. C．By boat。

D．By train。

27．The purpose of suspending a special safety net is to ________．A．prevent workers from falling B．make construction easier
C．protect the environment D．save building materials from falling
28．What do we know about Joseph Strauss?
A．His safety measures were not of practical value。

B．He attached importance to the workers' safety.
C．He built the first suspension bridge in the world。

D．He demanded strong measures to ensure the safety of the bridge。

C
I didn't cry when I learned l was the parent of a mentally handicapped child. I just sat still and didn't say anything。

When Kristi was old enough，we sent her to a kindergarten。

It would have been comforting to cry the day I left her in that room full of kids。

Kristi had spent hour upon hour playing by herself，but this moment，when she w as the ”different” child among them，she was probably the loneliest.
However，positive things began to happen to Kristi in her school, and to her schoolmates，too. Kristi’s classmates always took pains to praise her：”Kristi got all her spelling words right today。

” No one
bothered to add that her spelling list was easier than anyone else’s。

Later，she faced a very special challenge. The final event of the term was a program based on a final outcome of the year’s music and physical education activities。

Kristi was behind in both. My husband and I dreaded the day as well。

On the day of the program，Kristi pretended to be sick. Desperately I wanted to keep her home。

Surely missing one program couldn't matter。

But my conscience wouldn’t let me off that e asily。

So I practically got a pale，reluctant Kristi onto the school bus。

Just as I had forced my daughter to go to school，now I forced myself to go to the program。

At the kindergarten，I felt worried because of her slow and clumsy reactions, she would surely hold up her team。

The performance went well until it was time for the sack race。

Surely Jenny would find it tough。

Now each child had to climb into a sack，hop to a goal line，return and climb out of the sack(袋子）。

I noticed Jenny standing near the end of her line of players。

But as her turn to join, a change took place in her team。

The tallest boy behind Kristi placed his hands on her waist。

Two other boys stood ahead of her. The moment the player in front of Kristi stepped from the sack, those two boys grabbed the sack and held it open while the tall boy lifted Kristi and dropped her into it。

A girl ahead took her hand and supported her。

Kristi gained her balance。

Then off she hopped，smiling and proud.
At the cheers of teachers，schoolmates and parents, I silently thanked the warm，understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings。

Then I finally cried.
29．When sending her daughter to the kindergarten, the writer must have felt __________

lonely B. worried C。

cheerful D. scared
30．What does the underlined sentence imply?

D。

A。

her daughter's teammates helped her experience the happy feeling of her age.
B. her daughter Kristi won the competition with the help of her teammates。

C. the teachers at the kindergarten arranged some teammates to help her daughter。

performance。

32．What's the best title of the passage？

C。

The day I cried D。

A warm—hearted teamwork
D
“Experience may possibly be the best teacher, but it is not a particularly good teacher. ”You might think that Winston Churchill or perhaps Mark Twain spoke those words，but they actually come from James March，a predecessor(前任）at Stanford University and a pioneer in the field of organizational decision making. For years March （possibly be wisest philosopher of management) has studied how humans think and act，and he continues to do so in his new book The Ambiguities of Experience。

He begins by reminding us of just how firmly we have been sticking to the idea of experiential learning：“Experience is respected；experience is sought；experience is explained。

” The problem is that learning from experience involves（涉及）serious complications(复杂化）,ones that are part of the nature of experience itself and which March discusses in the body of this book。

In one interesting part of book,for example,he turns a double eye toward the use of stories as the most effective way of experiential learning.
He says “The more accurately(精确的）reality is presented，the less understandable the story，and the more understandable the story，the less realistic it is. "
Besides being a broadly knowledgeable researcher. March is also a poet, and his gift shines though in the depth of views he offers and the simple language he uses. Though the book is short，it is demanding: Don’t pick it up looking for quick，easy lessons. Rather, be ready to think deeply about learning from experience in work and life.
33．According to the text，James March is ____________.
A。

a poet who uses experience in his writing
B. a teacher who teachers story writing in university
C. a professor who helps organizations make important decisions
D. a researcher who studies the way humans think and act 34．What can we learn from Paragraph 3？
A。

Stories made interesting fail to fully present the truth。

B。

Experience makes stories more accurate。

C. The use of stories is the best way of experiential learning。

D。

Stories are easier to understand when reality is more accurately described.
35．What’s the purpose of this text？
A.. To explain experiential learning。

B. To describe a researcher.
C。

To introduce a book D. To discuss
organizational decision making。

第二节：短文写作(25分）
One possible version
As is vividly shown in the picture, a boy is happy with the fact that he can depend on the Internet to finish tasks without any difficulty。

It mirrors a common phenomenon. Nowadays, students tend to make use of the Internet to gain information they need。

There are some reasons accounting for it. To begin with, students find it convenient to surf the Internet for useful information, where problems can be solved with the help of several clicks. What’s more, there’s no
doubt that the pressure to succeed also causes students to turn to computers for accurate answers。

As a result，it’s likely that students will lose interest in studying, which is not beneficial to their overall development.
In my opinion，measures must be taken to solve the problem。

Firstly，it is vital that students gain confidence in themselves and their abilities while doing tasks. Besides, what teachers and parents should do is encourage students to be creative. Finally，doing tasks independently is of great significance.。
