Last but not least, sharing helps to promote mutual understanding and communication among people, making the world more harmonious and sustainable.To sum up, we are living in a world where we can never emphasize the significance of sharing too much.

第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题:每小题2.5分,满分25分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
AWilliam Pretzer was 5 years old when Rosa Parks of Montgomery, Alabama, was arrested. It was December 1, 1955. The 42-year-old needlewoman was on a city bus on the way home after a day’s work, and she refused to give her seat to a white passenger.The full significance of the event did not register with Pretzer, so young and living more than 2,000 miles away in Sacramento, California. To be honest, it would take time for most people to gain enough views to see the protest (抗议)for what it was, the beginning of the civil rights movement in the United States, and Parks as the movement’s so-called “mother.”Even now, as he looks over Parks’ police report and fingerprints, Pretzer, who worked for Detroit’s Henry Ford Museum for more than 20 years, and acquire the retired GM bus in which the incident occurred, is struck by the documents. “There is nothing that makes this event look extraordinary,” he says. “It is being treated as a typical violence offense of the city code. In fact, that is exactly what it was.”Yet, while police dealt with the situation just like any other noise protests on the city’s segregated (种族隔离)buses, Parks, her lawyers and NAACP leaders organized. “Within the African American community, it is seen as an opportunity for progress to be made, for attention and pressure to be brought to bear on the white power structure,” says Pretzer.Parks’ ac t of disobedience inspired the Montgomery Bus Boycott, through which Martin Luther King, Jr. became known as a civil rights leader. The boycott lasted 381 days, and on the 382nd day, backed by a Supreme Court ruling, the city’s buses were officially combin ed.By Pretzer’s definition, Parks is a history maker. “History makers are those that sense the moment,” he says.21. Why was Rosa Parks arrested?A. She didn’t give her seat to a passenger.B. She broke the city’s segregation law.C. She led the Montgomery Bus Boycott.D. She offended the authority of the police.22. Rosa Parks can be described as_______.A. a history document makerB. a movement leaderC. a brave motherD. a civil rights pioneer23. What is the text mainly about?A. The act of Rosa Parks gave rise to a movement.B. Pretzer witnessed the outbreak of the bus boycott.C. The Montgomery protest ended the segregation law.D. Martin Luther King led the civil right movement.BHundreds of thousands of hearing-impaired people in the United States rely on American sign language for communication. But popular as it is, there are millions of people with normal hearing that are unable to figure out the hand and finger gestures. That may change soon thanks to the clever “SignAloud” glove that transforms sign language into speech.The gloves are the brainchild of Thomas and Azodi. The inventors are firm believers that the ability to communicate is a fundamental human right and that those unable to hear or speak, face a significant disadvantage in life. But though there have been many attempts to bridge the communications gap, the solutions are simply too awkward to be operated on a large scale.The lightweight and comfortable SignAloud glove is equipped with a series of sensors that measure the movement and position of the hands as a person is signing. A Bluetooth device sends the information to a computer, which tries to match the gesture with a one in its database. As soon as the exact match is located, it “speaks” the relevant words or phrase through a speaker.Though still in prototype phase(原型阶段), the gloves seem to have impressed even the experts. On April 12, it won the inventors the outstanding Student Prize. Founded by Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1994, the award that comes with a $10,000 USD cash prize, celebrates collegiate students whose inventions have the potential to impact key areas of the global economy. University students can submit entries in one of four categories: “Cure it!”,“Drive it!”, “Eat it!” or “Use it!.”Pryor and Azodi won top honors in the "Use it" category which recognizes technology-based inventions that have the potential to improve consumer products. In addition to using the glove to enable the hearing impaired to communicate more efficiently, the inventors fancy several other commercial applications. These include usingthem to teach ASL language as well as for communicating with patients recovering from weakening illnesses.28. Why did the inventors see a need for the SignAloud glove?A. Today hundreds of thousands of people in the United States are hearing-impaired.B. Many people with good hearing have difficulty in learning American sign language.C. The hearing-impaired and those with normal hearing have a communication barrier.D. There is an urgent need to change the medical conditions of the hearing-impaired.29. In Paragraph 3, the author tries to tell us_______.A. how the SignAloud glove worksB. where the SignAloud glove is placedC. why the SignAloud glove wears easilyD. what the SignAloud glove is made up of30. It can be inferred from the text that_______.A. the invention is unfit to use on a large scale because of its costB. those submitting entries can win the outstanding student prizeC. hearing-impairment will be cured very soon with the inventionD. the two students expect their invention to come onto the marketCWhen we look at a lovely baby, a puppy or a rally cute kitten many of us want to squeeze it. Why is that?According to a study published in the journal Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, it’s a typical experience of “cute aggression”. The experience results from the fight between the brain’s “emotion system”, which impels (驱使) people to squeeze cute things, and its “reward system” which deals with feelings of “wanting”.In the study, 54 participants between the ages of 18 and 40 were presented with four groups of photos. Two of the groups of photos were of cute human babies and animals and the other two were of less adorable adult humans and animals. As the participants looked at the photos, there searchers watched their brain activities.According to the researchers, the participants reward systems were found to be active asthey looked at the cute babies, and they seemed to be overwhelmed(征服的). By contrast, the reward systems of the people looking at the less cute adults were found to be inactive, and they seemed to be less impelled by their reward systems.This suggests that cute things activate their emotion systems in such a way that people are overwhelmedby the experience of cuteness. But reward systems work against these emotions by creating the desire to protect cute things.As Katherine Stavropoulos, the lead researcher of this study at the University of California in the US told Science Alert, “The cute aggression is the brain’s way of ‘bringing us back down’ by balancing our feelings of being overwhelmed.”Stavropoulos compared this process of balancing to an evolutionary adaptation. Such an adaptation may have taken place to ensure that people are able to continue taking care of creatures they consider particularly cute.So, although cute babies and adorable animals may look completely helpless, their vulnerable( 易受伤害的) appearance may in fact help them to survive.27. According to the text, “cute aggression” refers to .A. the emotion of wanting to protect cute thingsB. the task of emotion system and reward systemC. the adaptation of consistently taking care of cute creaturesD. the behavior of squeezing a cute baby or animal when seeing it28. In nature, “cute aggression” is caused by .A. the need of the brain to balance all feelingsB. the photos of cute human babies and animalsC. the vulnerable appearance of babies or animalsD. the conflict between emotion system and reward system29. Which of the following statements about the study is TRUE?A. Facial expressions of the participants were observed.B. Katherine Stavropoulos conducted this study on her own.C. Cute babies and animals affected brain activities of all the participants.D. The participants were divided into two groups in order to make comparison.30. What is the author's purpose in writing this text?A. To persuade readers to protect cute animals.B. To stress the significance of cute aggression.C. To present research findings on cute aggression.D. To share an interesting phenomenon with readers第二节(共5小题:每小题2分計满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空自处的最佳选项。

Survivors of disasters are at significant risk for such problems as depression and anxiety.In an upcoming report, George A. Bonanno and colleagues note that disasters result in extreme psychological harm in a minority of individuals — less than 30% of samples experience severe levels of these psychological problems. Just as there are a wide range of problems experienced following disasters, Bonanno and his co-authors observe there are also a number of outcome patterns. Some survivors will exhibit chronic dysfunction (慢性功能障碍) but the majority will go on to recover psychological function within a few months or years.Following disasters, the most common form of immediate psychological intervention (介入) is Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD) (危机事件应激晤谈). However, following a review of studies on the effectiveness of CISD, Bonanno and co-authors conclude, “Multiple studies have shown that CISD is not only ineffective but, as suggested earlier, in some cases can actually be psychologically harmful.”“The data on crisis debriefing suggest that imposing such int erventions on individuals doesn't work,” Lilienfeld says.“If some of the miners want to talk to somebody to express their feelings, then by all means mental health professionals should be there to listen to them and support them. But for miners who would prefer not to talk much about the experience, it's best to leave them alone and respect their own coping mechanisms (应对机制).”According to Bonanno and his co-authors, there are treatments that may be effective in helping survivors recover from disasters. Psychological first aid (PFA) — which, among other things, provides practical help and helps develop a sense of safety and calmness among survivors — is a promising approach. For example, the community-centered intervention — which helps maintain a sense of connectedness and quality of community life — is beneficial to survivors of disasters. 1.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “traumatic” in the first paragraph?A.Amusing.B.Upsetting.C.Impressive.D.Memorable.2.What can be inferred from Lilienfeld's words?A.The choices of interventions should follow the survivors' will.B.The survivors should often ask health professionals for advice.C.It's beneficial for the survivors to communicate with each other.D.The miners should be respected for their hard and dangerous work.3.According to the passage, which of the following methods is generally more effective?A.Help survivors fit in their communities.B.Urge survivors to join in volunteer programs.C.Ask survivors to speak out their experiences.D.Leave survivors alone to improve their emotions.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.The types of psychological problems.B.The harmful effects of mine accidents.C.The new research about the mental activity.D.The psychological help for survivors of disasters.3、Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question,we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may beother reasons—for example, economic (经济的) reasons—why they should be preserved. So, letus assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate(影响) its surroundings too much,it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt(破坏) the area they are in,but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的) and do not like change.Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.1.What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?A.Some of them are not attractive.B.Most of them are too expensive to preserve.C.They are more pleasing than modern buildings.D.They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?A.We should reproduce the same old buildings.B.Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.C.Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.D.No one understands why people speak against new buildings.3.By “move things forward” in the last paragraph , the author probably means“_________”.A.destroy old buildingsB.put things in a different placeC.choose new architectural stylesD.respect people's feelings for historical buildings4.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To explain why people dislike change.B.To warn that we could end up living in caves.C.To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.D.To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.4、In my very first job with some archaeologists, I wasn’t digging objects out of the ground, instead I was employed as an artist, drawing what they found. However, I was soon more interested in the stories behind the objects than in drawing them and th at’s how my career in archaeology started. I still draw what I find in my work as a specialist on the Silk Road, the old trade route running from Egypt to Mongolia, and I also work on some underwater projects too.In archaeology, my all-time hero is an American called Raphael Pumpelly. I first heard about him when I was a student on a trip to Turkmenistan, a country right in the heart of Asia. To get around the country, I had to learn Russian so that I could speak to the local people. When I got there I thought, “Wow! I’m one of the first Americans here!” Then an old man told me about an American archaeologist, Raphael Pumpelly, who was there doing the same thing over 100 years ago.Archaeology’s in my family. My wife’s in the same profession, and, although our two boys aren’t interested in the future in archaeology themselves, we’ve been on some great digs together and they love what we do because they get to travel with us. Last summer, we took them to Lake Titicaca in South America, in the high areas of the Andes mountain range. My best experience was when I was digging on the Egyptian Red Sea coast. There’s very little rain and it’s so dry that everything is kept as it was. In an old house, where the owner used to store goods from the ships that came in, I pickedup a 700-year-old mat in front of the house and there, under it, after all that time, was the house key with the owner’s name carved on it. It felt like he could be on his way home any minute! And I thought, “Hey, I do just that. This man’s not much different to me!”1.While working in Egypt, what did the writer find so interesting?A.That people from different centuries can be so similar.B.The fact that the doormat was in such good condition.C.The way the people managed to live in such a dry place.D.That there had been so much trade in that area.2.Which entry will the writer probably make in his diary?A.Turkmenistan is interesting. I’m the first American to come here but I’m glad this is my last trip away.B.I have been diving today an d found some objects for an exhibition. I’ve just finished drawing them for my records.C.I wish my children weren’t more interested in archaeology and would not work hard in the open like their parents.D.It’s nearly dark but Raphael’s still busy digging in that old house. He can be very annoying. He thinks he’s the most important person here.3.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing the text?A.To describe the life of an archaeologist he admires.B.To persuade people to take up archaeology as a career.C.To explain what he enjoys about being an archaeologist.D.To show how archaeologists work.5、Two hundred years after Charles Darwin's birth, studies have found new details of his life at the University of Cambridge. Six leather-bound ledgers (皮革账本) discovered in the university show this. He lived in the most expensive rooms provided for a rich student at his time. He had someone to clean his room, make his bed and take care of the fire in his bright rooms. He hired a dishwasher, a clothes washer and a man who cleaned his shoes. A tailor(裁缝),hatter and barber made sure he was well presented. A chimney cleaner and a coalman kept his fire going. Christ’s College’s basic food was meat and beer.Darwin’s bill topped 636 pound s during his three years of study at Cambridge. Later he described this time as the most joyful of his happy life. That large sum (金额)would have been fairly common for a student at Cambridge in the 19th century.In those days Cambridge was full of rich students living a pretty good life and Darwin was just one of them. And thus he had plenty of time for socializing or private study. He would be out shooting, collecting beetles, doing his scientific hobbies or visiting friends. He played cards and drank wine at night, just like students always have.A. Thanks to the richness, he was able to hire servants to help with the daily life.B. The findings were published on the Internet.C. So he paid five and a lialf pence extra each day to have vegetables.D. He enjoyed the kind of comfortable university life that most of today’s students can only dream about.E. He had several people to help him to deal with the daily housework.F. When you look at the ledgers, you can find there were many rich students in Cambridge.G. The bills were paid by his wealthy father, Robert Darwin, a doctor.6、阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
