第Ⅰ卷(选择题共115分)
第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15 小题；每小题2 分，满分30 分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
Misciosico, 60 a marketing consultant in Pearl river, N.Y., says she’s addicted to her Sony e-reader. She buys or b orrows a print book only when it’s not available digitally. Miscioscio says most of her friends and relatives have also switched to e-books for the convenience and lower prices. Last winter, she notes, she vacationed in Costa Rica and says “at least 75% of those readers were reading electronically. I was shocked to see people taking their e-readers onto the loungers（躺椅）in the pool.”
Meier, 43, a marketing director in Beaver Falls, prefers her books on paper, not screens. After working on a computer all day, she says, “I want a book in my hand. Turning over its pages is my way of knowing it's time to relax and slow down.” Meier, who's sticking with physical books, doesn't consider herself any kind of digital “resister.” “I'm comfortable with all forms of technology,” she says. “However, when it comes to books, I suppose I'm a traditionalist. My preference will always be the real thing.”
To her, part of the joy of reading is the book itself: “pulling it from the shelf, inspecting the cover, letting it fall open to a random page.”
Both have lots of company. Statistics show that e-book sales grew 43% last year, but that's a slowdown compared with the triple-digit increases in recent years. E-books remain the fastest-growing part of the book market but account for only about 20% of all sales, reported by publishers.
Miscioscio and Meier are at opposite ends of a book business in transition. Even though e-book sales have grown more than 4,000% since 2008, it's unlikely that physical books will disappear the way records did in the music industry.
21. Miscioscio will ______ when a book is not available digitally.
A. give up reading such kind of books
B. switch to the book of lower price
C. buy the book on paper
D. take an e-reader onto the loungers
22. According t o Meier, her “preference” refers to ______.
A. paper book
B. part of joy
C. a random page
D. an e-book
23. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Records are unlikely to disappear in the music industry.
B. Miscioscio and Meier are two opponents in book business.
C. The market share of e-books is bigger than that of paper books.
D. Physical books will remain to be accepted to some people.
24. What is the passage mainly concerned with?
A. E-books will dominate the book industry eventually.
B. Readers go their own way in choosing books.
C. New technology brings more benefits for readers.
D. Physical books will disappear gradually in the future.
B
It all began with a stop at a red light.
Kevin Salwen was driving his 14-year-old daughter, Hannah, back from a sleepover in 2006 . While waiting at a traffic light, they saw a black Mercedes Coupe on one side and a homeless man begging for food on the other.
“Dad, if that man had a less nice car, that man there could have a meal.” Hannah protested. The lig ht changed and they drove on, but Hannah was too young to be reasonable. She pestered（纠缠）her parents about inequity, insisting that she wanted to do something.
“What do you want to do?” her mom responded. “Sell our house?”
Warning! Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager. Hannah seized upon the idea of selling the luxurious family home and donating half the proceeds to charity, while using the other half to buy a more modest replacement home.
Eventually, that’s what the family did. The proje ct —crazy, impetuous （鲁莽的）and utterly inspiring —is written down in detail in a book by father and daughter scheduled to be published next month: “The Power of Half.” It’s a book that, frankly, I’d be nervous about leaving around where my own teenage kid s might find it. An impressionable child reads this, and the next thing you know your whole family is out on the street.
At a time of enormous needs in Haiti and elsewhere, when so many Americans are trying to help Haitians by sending everything from text messages to shoes, the Salwens offer an example of a family that came together to make a difference — for themselves as much as the people they were trying to help. In a column a week ago, it described neurological （神经生物学的）evidence from brain scans that unselfishness lights up parts of the brain normally associated with more primary satisfaction. The Salwens’ experience confirms the selfish pleasures of selflessness.
Mr. Salwen and his wife, Joan, had always assumed that their kids would be better off in a bigger house. But after they downsized, there was much less space to retreat to, so the family members spent more time around each other. A smaller house unexpectedly turned out to be a more family-friendly house.
25. What does the underlined word “inequity” most probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Unfairness.
B. Satisfaction.
C. Reasonable statement
D. Personal attitude.
26. What does the underlined sentence “Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager.” means?
______
A. Don’t respond to a child's demands firmly without consideration.
B. Unless a child is realistic, never give an answer immediately.
C. Give an answer if the child is reasonable.
D. Never give a quick answer to an idealistic teenager.
27. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The Salwens regretted selling their house.
B. The relationship between the family members of the Salwens is much closer.
C. Small houses can bring happiness.
D. The Salwens intend to buy another big house.
28. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Mercedes Coupe is only an ordinary car which is quite cheap.
B. Unselfishness has nothing to do with people’s primary satisfaction.
C. Hannah asked her parents to do something charitable and they sold their house.
D. The writer’s children asked him to sell their house.
C
In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity (繁荣). Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.
I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit (追求) of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.
However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which only values the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” What is not usually admitted by them is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot.
Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve(缓解)can we discover a new meaning in competition.
29.What does this passage mainly talk about?
A．Competition helps to set up self – respect.
B．Competition is harmful to personal quality development.
C．Failures are necessary experiences in competition
D．Opinions about competition are different among people.
30.Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?
A．It improves personal abilities. B．It builds up a sense of duty.
C．It pushes society forward. D．It encourages individual efforts.
31.The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Par agraph 3 means ___________.
A．those who try their best to win
B．those who value competition most highly
C．those who are against competition most strongly.
D．those who rely on others most for success
32.Which point of view may the author agree to?
A．Fear of failure should be removed in competition.
B．Competition should be encouraged.
C．Winning should be a life – and – death matter.
D．Every effort should be paid back.
D
"A photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically with a smart phone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website" is the definition of "selfie" in the Oxford English Dictionary. In fact, it wasn't even in the dictionary until August of last year. It earned its place there because people are now so obsessed with (对……痴迷) selfies ─ we take them when we try on a new hat, play with our pets or when we meet a friend whom we haven't seen in a while.
But is there any scientific explanation for this obsession? Well, you should probably ask James Kilner, a neuroscientist(神经系统科学家) at University College London.
Through our lifetime we become experts at recognizing and interpreting other people's faces and facial expressions. In contrast, according to Kilner, we have a very poor understanding of our own faces since we have little experience of loo king at them ─ we just feel them most of the time.
This has been proved in previous studies, according to the BBC.
Kilner found that most people chose the more attractive picture. This suggests that we tend to think of ourselves as better-looking than we actually are. To further test how we actually perceive our own faces, Kilner carried out another study. He showed people different versions of their own portrait ─ the original, one that had been edited to look less attractive and one that was made more att ractive ─ and asked them to pick the version which they thought looked most like them. They chose the more attractive version.
But what does it say about settles? Well, isn't that obvious? Selfies give us the power to create a photograph ─ by taking it fro m various angles, with different poses, using filters (滤色镜) and so on ─ that better matches our expectations with our actual faces.
"You suddenly have control in a way that you don't have in non-virtual(非虚拟的) interactions," Kilner told the Canada-based CTV News. Selfies allow you "to keep taking pictures until you manage to take one you're happy with" , he explained.
33. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The definition and fun of taking selfies.
B. A study of why people love taking selfies.
C. How taking selfies influences people's daily lives.
D. How to interpret people's facial expressions in their selfies.
34. What did Kilner discover from his researches?
A. People interpret others' facial expressions worse than their own.
B. People tend to spend more time looking at their faces than at others'.
C. People tend to believe they look more attractive than they actually are.
D. People who like taking selfies know more about their facial expressions.
35. According to Kilner, people like taking selfies probably because they think ______.
A. it is a good chance to learn more about their actual faces
B. it is a way to respond to others' facial expressions correctly
C. it enables them to interact with their friends in social media
D. it allows them to satisfy their expectations with their appearances
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

The kitchen is one of the most important parts of the house. You may think that, since it’s only used for cooking, there’s no need to pay much attention t o its color. 36 Color influences people’s mood and creates an atmosphere, and surely you want to be in a good mood when you’re cooking.
To decorate a kitchen, first look for a theme which will then influence the color scheme (方案). The most common colors in kitchens are white, yellow and other light colors. Kitchens are usually painted in one color to create a clean and neat look. 37 Also, since kitchens tend to have smaller windows, the light colors help make it brighter. Neutral colors such as gray and cream can also be used to create some contrast.
38 Start with your favorite color, or two light colors that balance each other. Make sure that you test them thoroughly first so that you can be sure they’ll actually work. For more adventurous kit chen owners, three colors next to each other can also work. But these need to be carefully chosen, because one wrong color can ruin the whole look of the kitchen.
When the kitchen color scheme has been chosen, other elements must be considered. Some important things, such as cupboards, in the kitchen can affect its look. Tiles (瓷砖) and the floor must be chosen to fit the look. 39
Last but not least, no matter what color scheme you use, make sure that it really is the one you want.
40
A. Many people want to decorate their kitchens with bright colors.
B. Different colors have different effects on people’s mood.
C. Otherwise, get advice from other members of the family.
D. The light colors make the room seem bigger than it is.
E. There are different ways to create a color scheme.
F. In a word, kitchen decoration must go together with the color scheme.
G. But in fact, the color schemes of kitchens are as important as those of any other rooms.

I seldom thought I had a passion. I would sit before the TV all day, thinking 61 nothing but the next shadow. It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.
One day I went with Mum to drop my sister off at the gym. Then, 62 Mum stopped at a red light, someone on the roadside caught my eyes. It was a man 63 (dress) in rags, homeless. That didn’t inter est me, for I 64 (see) many like him before.
But the man wasn’t sitting down with a sad65 (express). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing 66 (merry) to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thing 67 he had.
“Mum, why does that man have a radio even though he’s homeless?” I asked.
“He bought68 ,” she replied.
“But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He wasted it on something he doesn’t need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t69 only important things. We need happiness, too.”
“I see.” The man must care too much about music, so he bought a radio instead of food and clothes. I realized that happiness is the key to life. 70 it, there’s nothing to look forward to. A passion gives a p erson the happiness they need to keep going!

The mobile phone has been part of our life. Mobile phones bring us much convenience. However, more and more phubbers, especially young people, would like to stare at their screen, surfing or playing games, no matter whether they are on a bus or a train, and no matter how far the journey is. And even they will not miss the chance to surf the in internet when crossing the street. They never care about what happened around.
As far as I am concerned, phubbing on a moving bus does harm to their eyes. Besides, phubbing is also dangerous while crossing the street. Wish phubbers hold up their heads to enjoy surroundings.
