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。

（6分）“How can we live longer?” many people wond er. Being sociable looks 21．
like a good way to add years to your life. Relationships with family, friends, neighbors, even pets, will all do the trick, but the biggest longevity (长寿) boost seems to come from marriage or an equal relationship. The effect was first noted in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote that widows and widowers (鳏夫) were at a much higher risk of dying than their married peers. Studies since then suggest that marriage could add as much as seven years to a man’s life and two to a woman’s, The effect holds for all causes of death, whether illness, accident or self-harm.
Even though the odds are stacked against you (the conditions are not favourable to you), marriage can more than compensate. Linda Waite of the University of Chicago has found that a married older man with heart disease can expect to live nearly four years longer than an unmarried man with a healthy heart. Likewise, a married man who smokes more than a pack a day is likely to live as long as a divor ced man who doesn’t smoke. There’s a less pleasant
side, however, as partners are more likely to become ill or die in the couple of years following their spouses; death, and caring for a spouse with mental disorder can leave you with some of the same severe problems. Even so, the odds favour marriage. In a
30-year study of more than 10,000 people, Nicholas Christakis of Harvard Medical School describes how all kinds of social networks have similar effects.
So how does it work? The effects are complex, affected by socioeconomic factor, health-service provision, emotional support and other more physiological mechanisms (机制). For example, social contact can boost development of the brain and immune system, leading to better health and less chance of depression later in life. People in supportive relationships may handle stress better. Then there are the psychological
benefits of a supportive partner.
A life partner, children and good friends are all recommended if you aim to live to 100. The best social network is still being mapped out, but Christakis says: “People are interconnected so their health is interconnected.”
1、William Farr’s study and other studies show that ________.
A．social life provides an effective cure for illness
B．being sociable helps improve one’s quality of life
C．women benefit more than men from marriage
D．marriage contributes a great deal to longevity
2、What does the underlined word “compensate” in the second paragraph probably mean?
A．pay money B．provide something had
C．help recover D．increase damage
3、What does the author say about social network?
A．They have effects similar to those of a marriage.
B．They help develop people’s community spirit.
C．They provide timely support for those in need.
D．They help relieve people of their life’s burden.
4、What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．It’s important that we develop a social network when youn g.
B．To stay healthy, one should have a proper social network.
C．Getting a divorce means risking a reduced life span.
D．We should share our social networks with each other.
22．（8分） A gaming company in New Zealand is luring employees. from around the wor ld by offering unlimited paid annual leave, a share in the company’s profits and no set work hours.
Dean Hall became famous in international gaming circles for being the lead designer on popular video game DayZ. After searching the world for a location for his new gaming studio, Rocketwerkz, New Zealander Hall settled on the small university town of Dunedin on the south island’s east coast, where land is cheap and creative start-ups have become an important pan of the city’s identity.
Rocketwerkz’s flexible work culture is now drawing talent from around the globe,
with Hall receiving 300 messages of inquiry since a local newspaper wrote about his studio last week.
Last year, when the company was still in its infancy(婴儿期), baby cats would also make a regular appearance in the office as a form of fighting stress, and Friday afternoons are generally reserved for sports and games to end the week on a playful note.
“The first time I heard about the idea of unlimited paid leave in places like Silicon Valley it was about the problems it caused. A culture had appeared where employees took no leave,” said Hall.
“So to address that, our staff are issued the standard New Zealand annual leave of four weeks, but they can also take unlimited leave in addition to that.”
Emily Lampitt, from Britain, is a 3D junior artist who has been with the company for a year and a half. She says the flexible work culture was a huge factor in her decision to move to New Zealand.
“The flexibility here has made me feel much more relaxed” she says. I “That internal stress I used to feel in a traditional work environment has gone, so when I am at work now it is because I want to be, because I am passionate(有激情的), not because I am afraid of my boss or watching the clock.”
1、The underlined word “luring” in Paragraph I is closest in meaning to . A．cheating B．disturbing
C．inspiring D．attracting
2、Why are baby cats mentioned in Paragraph 4?
A．To show the company focuses on pressure relief.
B．To explain how the company motivates its staff.
C．To stress the significance of harmony in workplaces.
D．To introduce a new way to promote creativity
3、According to the passage, unlimited paid leave in Silicon Valley .
A．set a good example to Rochetwerkz.
B．didn’t work out as expected.
C．helped develop the local culture.
D．solved the problem of unemployment.
4、What is the writing purpose of the above text?
A．To encourage companies to be more flexible.
B．To describe what a creative company should be like.
C．To give a report on the flexible management of a company.
D．To discuss how to make a traditional company more competitive.

Most letters are sent in the post to his last home in St Petersburg, Florida, and the mail box in the front yard is full to bursting. But others are delivered by hand, pushed under the front door or left on the doorstep.
They usually thank the author of On the Road for inspiring them to travel and be independent. “You remind me to stay true to who you are and to encourag e a sense of adventure in all of us.” reads one letter, handwritten by “Cindy” on paper covered with pictures of butterflies and flowers. She adds, “I hope you’re writing, liberated and drinking a glass of wine.”
Another, signed “Friend of Jack”, reads, “I prefer to think of myself as a free spirit and a person who follows a path of her own choosing. You have always been my inspiration.”
His home, where he was living with his mother Gabrielle and his wife Stella, has become a destination for hundreds of fans every year.
Kerouac rocketed to fame at the age of 35, with the publication of On the Road in 1957.
But after becoming a symbol and leader of the alternative lifestyle movement, he struggled with that fame and claimed that he only wanted people to read his books.
Kerouac died just 12 years after On the Road was published. He was suffering from liver problem, following years of heavy drinking largely brought on by his love-hate relationship with fame.
Kerouac, the creator of vivid characters such as Sal Paradise and Dean Moriarty,
died at a St Petersburg hospital in 1969, at the age of 47.
1、Why do people still write to Kerouac after his death?
A．His wife and mother still live in his home.
B．They are also suffering from serious illness.
C．People benefiting from his books want to say thanks.
D．People hope to learn how to deal with overnight fame.
2、What is On the Road probably about?
A．How to deal with becoming famous.
B．How vivid characters can be created.
C．Teaching people to appreciate his books.
D．Getting to know oneself better through travel.
3、What can we learn about Kerouac from the text?
A．He had great difficulty dealing with fame.
B．He was depressed because people didn’t read his books.
C．He drank a lot to celebrate his being famous for his works.
D．He was scolded because he promoted an alternative lifestyle.
25．（10分）I entered high school having read hundreds of books. But I was not a good reader. Merely bookish, I lacked a point of view when I read. Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, ideas, themes-anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a "complicated idea" until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony (嘲讽)or its very complicated truth.
I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times. (How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?)
There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the "hundred most important books of Western Civilization." "More than anything else in my life, "the professor told the reporter with finality," these books have made me all that I am." That was the kind of words I couldn't ignore. I kept the list for the several
months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato's The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition (迷信)of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by me time I reached the last word, pleased, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.
1、On heating the teacher's suggestion of reading, the writer thought .
A．one must read as many books as possible
B．a student should not have a complicated idea
C．it was impossible for one to read two thousand books
D．students ought to make a list of the books they had read
2、The underlined phrase "with finality" probably means .
A．firmly B．clearly
C．proudly D．pleasantly
3、The writer's purpose in mentioning The Republic is to .
A．explain why it was included in the list
B．describe why he seriously crossed it off the list
C．show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understand D．prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word
4、The writer provides two book lists to .
A．show how he developed his point of view
B．tell his reading experience at high school
C．introduce the two persons' reading methods
D．explain that he read many books at high school

I finished my shopping in a totally different 16 from when I started.
I couldn’t get the little boy out of my mind. Then I remembered a local news
paper article two days ago, which mentioned a 17 man in a truck, who hit a
car occupied by a young woman and a little girl. The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a 18 state.

29、Dear Li Hua,
How are things with you? Today I’m writing to tell you something about Edinburgh which you asked about in the last e-mail.
Edinburgh, located in the southeast of Scotland, is the capital of the kingdom as well as its political and cultural center. It covers an area of 260 square kilometers with only a small population of 1.33 million.
With the airport of Edinburgh lying in the center of the city, it is convenient for people to go around. What’s more, you can easily get wherever you are going, using public transport. Close to seaside, Edinburgh has a mild climate, which makes it one of the most popular tourism cities in the UK. It attracts more than 2 million tourists every year. What makes it unique is its splendid ancient architecture standing along streets, such as the Edinburgh Castle.
What’s your plan for this summer holiday? I would be more than happy to guide you around our city if you would arrange a visit here. It would be a good place to spend a holiday.
Yours faithfully,
Harry。
