第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分30分)
第一节（共10小题，每题2分，满分20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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
In recent months, a catchy song, A Little Apple, has become such a hit that it has even inspired square-dancing troupes(团) to mimic(模仿) its music video.
When Old Boys: The Way of the Dragon, an adventure comedy featuring the song, was released on July 10, the unusual publicity strategy was applauded. Ticket sales of Old Boys: The Way of the Dragon surpassed 150 million yuan in the first week of hitting the big screen.
Interactive online campaigns involving fans have become a popular way to promote a movie. The first two episodes(集) of Tiny Times, the directing debut(处女作) of author, Guo Jingming, made 800 million yuan at the box office last year, in spite of criticism for its portrayal(描绘) of lavish(奢华的) lifestyles. Before the third episode was shown, fans donated a small sum of money online as “investors” in the movie. Some of the people who donated received film souvenirs, or the chance to visit the film set.
Han Han, Guo’s major competitor, has just released his directorial debut, road-trip comedy, The Continent. Han has over 38 million followers on Sina Weibo, China’s major micro-blogging platform. He has broadcast the filming process of the movie to his followers since he began shooting. The film’s trailer(预告片)was released online in May, only three days after shooting and it has been viewed 4.7 million times.
“I don’t care too much about the surprising numbers online, and what matters more is whether the movie is good or not,” Han once said.
However, when he invited popular singer, Pu Shu, to write the closing song for the movie, he must have had another idea in mind.
Pu, who has been away from the public eye for some 11 years, also brings a new element for the movie claiming to be devoted to young people. The song became very popular as soon as it was released online.
No one knows what other trump cards will be thrown on the table during the tense online campaign this summer.
21. How does the author develop the text?
A. By giving examples.
B. By cause and effect.
C. By following the order of time.
D. By making comparison.
22. How does Guo promote his film Tiny Times?
A. He takes advantage of his fans to support the movie.
B. He has a luxurious lifestyle to attract the attention of people.
C. He gives presents to his fans to encourage them to watch it.
D. He organizes online activities to increase its popularity.
23. Why did Han invite Pu Shu to write the closing song for the movie?
A. Pu Shu had the same experience as the hero in the film.
B. Pu Shu could help increase the popularity of his film.
C. Han is a big fan of Pu Shu.
D. It was a good chance for Pu Shu’s comeback.
24. Where may this article be found?
A. In a fashion magazine.
B. In the advertisement section of a newspaper.
C. From an entertainment report in a newspaper.
D. From a finance journal.
Cell Phones Are the New Cigarettes
When you get in your car, you reach for it. When you’re at work, you take a break to have a moment alone with it. When you get into a lift, you play with it.
Cigarettes? Cup of coffee? No, it’s the third most addictive thing in modern life, the cell phone. And experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their desire to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationships.
With its shiny surface, its smooth and satisfying touch, its air of complexity, the cell phone connects us to the world even as it disconnects us from people three feet away. In just the past couple of years, the cell phone has challenged individuals, employers, phone makers and counselors(顾问) in ways its inventors in the late 1940s never imagined.
The costs are becoming even more evident, and I don’t mean just the monthly bill. Dr. Chris Knippers, a counselor at the Betty Ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has become a social problem not much different from other harmful addictions: a barrier to one-on-one personal contact, and an escape from reality.
Sounds extreme, but we’ve all witnessed the evidence: The person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone in the car, ignoring her husband; the teen who texts messages all the way home from school, avoiding contact with kids all around him.
Is it just rude, or is it a kind of unhealthiness? And pardon me, but how is this improving the quality of life?
Jim Williams, an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts, notes that cell-phone addiction is part of a set of symptoms in a widening gulf of personal separation. He points to a study by Duke University researchers that found one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with. Despite the growing use of phones, e-mail and instant messaging, in other words, Williams says studies show that we don’t have as many friends as our parents. “Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances via the Internet and cell phones have produc ed fewer friends,” he says.
If the cell phone has truly had these effects, it’s because it has become very widespread. Consider that in 1987, there were only 1 million cell phones in use. Today, something like 300 million Americans carry them. They far outnumber wired phones in the United States.
25. Which of the following best explains the title of the passage?
A. Cell phone users smoke less than they used to.
B. More people use cell phones than smoke cigarettes.
C. Cell phones have become as addictive as cigarettes.
D. Using cell phone is just as cool as smoking cigarettes.
26. The underlined word “curb” in Paragraph 2 means __________.
A. control
B. ignore
C. develop
D. rescue
27. The example of a woman talking on the phone in the car supports the idea that .
A. women use cell phones more often than men
B. talking on the phone while driving is dangerous
C. cell phones make one-on-one personal contact easy
D. cell phones do not necessarily bring people together
C
Air travel makes some people very nervous. The crowds, the noise and flying itself can
cause unease. But there are classes that people can take to help them defeat the fear of flying. And now we are going to talk about similar training for service dogs that suffer from the same problem.
Service dogs almost never leave the side of the people they care for. You will see them working on buses, trains and other public transport systems. But the busy environment in an airport can trouble even the best trained working dog.
People with disabilities depend on their dogs. They also need the dogs to remain calmly on duty on the airplane, even when the flight is not smooth. This takes special training. The Air Hollywood K9 Flight School is one place where such help can be found.
The school has a piece of equipment that provides the sights, sounds and even the feel of an airplane in flight. It is called a flight simulator(模拟器). The simulator was built for filming airplane scenes in movies.
Sandy Alexander lives in Newport Beach, California. He has a disability that requires his two-year-old dog, Doc, to be always at his side. Mr. Alexander took the dog to the flight school to get him ready for plane trips. He says Doc did not like the bumpy(颠簸的) part of the flight simulation. “When that started he was pretty agitated and looked up at me and wasn’t sure what was gong on.”
“Dogs need to be exposed gradually and repetitively to stimulation, to the environment, to loud noises, to sounds and other dogs so that when this experience happens to them on a daily basis, they are able to act in a way that they are used to acting and don’t get excitable,” days dog trainer, Mary Segall.
Dog owners who have attended the training say they now feel much more at ease about future flights. Their dogs also seem ready for take-off.
28The flight simulator________.
A.can help people to learn how to fly an airplane
B.was built for filming airplane scenes in movies
C.can’t provide the feel of an airplane in flight
D.let service dog owners experience the thrill of flying
29What does the underlined word, “agitated” in the fifth paragraph, probably mean?
A. Excited
B. Anxious
C. Calm
D. Depressed
30. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the text?
A. There are no school for people to overcome the fear of flying.
B. Well-trained working dogs don’t need to attend the training.
C. Dogs are exposed to stimulation repetitively in the flight school.
D. The training has little effect on service dogs.

How to pick a good book
It is not news that we spend more time texting（发短信）and surfing online than ever. But a recent study shows that more teenagers are reading good old-fashioned and ink-on-paper books. Reading is a good way to widen your knowledge and learn about yourself. You probably know how to find the best application programs for your phone. 31

33 Books of fiction, like novels or short-story collections, can transport you to another world or help you to imagine something beyond your own experience. Not all fiction is the same. Try some different types of fiction and see which one you prefer. Non-fiction books give you the “who”, “what”, “when” and “why” of something. They tell stories suing facts, but that doesn’t mean they are dull.
3. Read the “blurb(简介)”
The reviews and quotes on the back and inside covers of many books are known as “blurbs”. These comments not only give you an idea of what the book is about, but also help you to pick out future books. If you find a book you really like, take a minute to read the blurb and see which authors praised the book. 34

A good heart to lean on

Nowadays, copying others’ homework is quite common in some schools. There two main reasons for this.
Firstly, some students spend too much time playing so that they have no time for homework. Another reason is that some don’t listen to their teachers attentively in the class so they cannot do their homework by themselves. In order to hand them in, they have no choice but to copy.
As we all know, homework plays an important role in our studies.
It is used to check our study and help us review our lessons. If we hand in the homework copied form others, our teachers will not know what we haven’t understood.
So it is time that we said no to copying homework. Only by doing homework on our own can we really make progress in our studies.
