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）Canada is a bilingual country with "co-official " languages. English and French enjoy equal status as the official languages of all government agencies in Canada. This means that the public has the right to communicate with and receive services from government in either English or French. Government employees have the right to work in the official language of their choice in certain bilingual regions.
Like the United States, Canada started as a colony. Beginning in the 1500s it was part of New France but later became a British colony after the Seven Years’ War. As a result, the Canadian government recognized the languages of both colonizers: France and England. The Constitution (宪法)Act of 1867 admitted the use of both languages in federal courts. Y ears later, Canada strengthened its commitment to bilingualism when it passed the Official Languages Act of 1969, which reconfirmed the constitutional origins of its co official languages.
Recognition of both English and French protects the rights of all Canadians. Among other benefits, the 1969 Act recognized the Canadian citizens should be able to access federal laws and government documents, whether their native language was French or English. The general law also requires that consumer products feature bilingual packaging throughout the country.
The Canadian government is committed to advancing the equality and the use of English and French and provides support to the development of English and French minority communities. However, the reality is that most Canadians speak English, and of course, many Canadians speak another language entirely.
Although the federal government theoretically guarantees bilingual services in all areas, there are many regions where English is the clear majority language so the government does not offer services in French in those regions. Canadians use the phrase "where numbers justify "to indicate whether a local populations language requires bilingual services from the government.
While many Canadians are bilingual in English and French, Statistics. Canada finds that over 10 other languages were reported as a language spoken by its people. About two-thirds of the respondents who spoke one of these languages also spoke either English or French
1、Why are two official languages accepted in Canada?
A．The language-using tradition caused by Canada's colonial history
B．The theoretical commitment made by Canadian courts in the past
C．The welcome attitude towards people coming from all over the world
D．The mastery of two languages of Canadians because of school education
2、What is the current situation of official languages in Canada?
A．People speaking English are superior because of their access to federal laws B．Federal governments have to provide bilingual services to all citizens in Canada C．French minority communities are given more support due to their language-using history
D．There are more people speaking English than French in some parts of Canada
3、What can we infer from the passage?
A．The legal court usage of French and English was established in Canada in 1969. B．Some Canadians in certain districts might speak neither English nor French C．Either French or English should be used on products in Canada according to the law D．English has gained superior legal position to French because of bigger users in Canada
4、Which is the best title of the passage?
A．The Official Languages in Canada B．Canada, a Multiple-language Land C．Balancing English and French in Canada D．Advancing English and French in Canada
22．（8分）The effects of coffee consumption on health have long been a subject of conflict and uncertainty.Since the 1980s,some have spoken out against coffee as harmful to health,while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health.
According to a scientific report,mild coffee consumption,three to five cups per day,can he taken as a healthy dietary pattern,along with other healthful behaviors.The report also says that coffee consumption helps reduce the risk of heart disease and it protects against Parkinson's disease.
According to Dr.Donald Hensrud of Mayo Clinic,high consumption of coffee has health risks.Dr.Hensrud mentions the dangers of high coffee consumption for people with a certain illness that slows the breakdown of caffeine in the body.Some studies said that drinking two or more cups of coffee daily can actually increase the risk of heart disease in these people.
According to conclusions from a recent study led by Dr.Gregory Marcus,a doctor from the University of California San Francisco,daily moderate consumption of caffeine,less than 4 cups,is not associated with these issues.
Until the scientific community reaches a general agreement on the effects of coffee consumption on human health,it will be up to the individual to decide whether the benefits of drinking coffee are greater than the risks.
When informed of these possible health benefits and harms of drinking
coffee,Harwood,a high school student stated,"Even though there might be some negative effects of drinking coffee,for the most part,coffee drinking sounds good for health.Not to mention I need coffee to stay awake."

C．Doubtful. D．Mixed.
2、What does the underlined word "moderate" in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Personal. B．Slight.
C．Reasonable. D．Heavy.
3、What can we infer about Harwood?

C．He often falls asleep in class. D．He has some health problems.
4、What would be the best title for the text?
A．Why People Love Coffee? B．How Coffee Affects Health?
C．The Culture of Coffee Drinking D．The New Findings of Heart Disease 23．（8分）Get Smart: Picks of Educational Apps

（8分）The Crowne Plaza Hotel in Copenhagen is offering a free meal to any 24．
guest who is able to produce electricity for the hotel on an exercise bike linked to a generator (发电机). The idea is to get people fit and reduce their carbon footprint. Guests will have to produce at least 10 watt hours of electricity — roughly 15 minutes of
cycling for someone of average fitness. Guests staying at Plaza Hotel will be given meal tickets worth $ 36 once they have produced 10 watt hours of electricity. The bicycles will have smart phones attached to the handlebars measuring how much power is being generated for the hotel.
The plan, a world-first, will start on 19 April and run for a year. Only guests staying at the hotel will be able to take part. Frederikke Toemmergaard，hotel spokeswoman, said, “Many of our visitors are business people who enjoy going to the gym. There might be people who will cycle just to get a free meal, but generally I don’t think people will take advantage of our programme.”
Copenhagen has a long-standing cycling tradition and 36 % of locals cycle to work each day, one of the highest percentages in the world, according to the website visitcopenhagen. dk. US environmental website treehugger. com recently voted Copenhagen the world’s best city for cyclists. “Because Copenhagen is strongly connected with cycling, we felt the bicycle would work well as a symbol of the hotel’s green profile (形象).”

When I intended to tell my four-year-old niece Lisa the story Snow White write by the Grimm Brothers, my elder sister stopped me immediate and gave me another storybook. When I asked if she has told Lisa the story, she shook her head and said, “I don’t think girl today should listen to this story.” I was confusing. Later, my sister explained how. In this story, Snow White does nothing to rescue herself. Instead of, she depends on others’ help. My sister doesn’t want her daughter to learn just to turn to others help. She wants
her to learn to be brave and independence. That’s why my sister doesn’t want to tell herself such stories as Snow White.

29、Ladies and gentleman,
The inspiring riding trip launched by Youth Riding Association is coming.
The trip is scheduled to begin on lst, August. We'll start our ride in Xi'an, Shanxi province, and finally stop in Lanzhou, Gansu province, covering a length of about 620 kilometers. The journey is only a part of the Silk Road, during which we can not only enjoy the fascinating scenery but also have a better understanding of the Silk Road.
If you want to join the ride, you need to prepare some necessities such as food, water, tents and jackets for the trip and also take care of yourself. I believe it will be an unforgettable trip.
Wish the riding trip a great success.。
