第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节，40分)
第一节 (共15小题; 每小题2分，30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出较佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The Electricity workers’ strike has been going on for three days. Below are some statements about the strike.
Mr. Mike Smith:
It wasn’t an easy decision, but we have been asking for a reasonable wage for years. Now at last people are beginning to listen to us. We’re only asking for a 25 percent increase in our wages. It’s a pity so many people have to be inconvenienced by our strike. but please don’t blame us. Blame the government for refusing our claim.
Mr. Tom Brown:
It’s totally unreasonable to demand so much money when we are trying desperately to stop the prices going up. If wages go up, so do prices. If we give in to them, all the other unions would want more, with the inevitable result that the crisis would become uncontrollable. We offer them a 10 percent increase. And that’s already too much. My stand at
the strike is to persuade the Union to see the reason.
Mr. Bob Davis:
Everybody will be hurt by this strike, including the electricity workers themselves. The economy will be destroyed and many people will lose their jobs. Already people are saying that the big unions have too much power and shouldn’t be allowed to strike. Of course the electricity workers want to get more money. don’t we all?
Miss Stater:
Let’s face it. It’s neither here nor there. The electricity workers are in a strong position. Perhaps we can’t do anything about it. What I say is: let them have their 250 dollars so we can return to work. I mean, the government wastes the taxpayers’ money all the time on unimportant things. How can anyone say 250 dollars is “too much”? Pop singers get more. Nurses get less. It’s just one of those things.
21. Who is most likely to be employed in electricity industry?
A. Mr. Mike Smith B. Mr. Tom Brown
C. Mr. Bob Davis D. Miss Stater
22. The underlined word most probably means _______.
A. avoidable B. inspiring C. automatic D. sensitive
23. We can learn from the texts that ________.
A. the electricity workers won’t achieve their goal
B. the government won’t meet the workers’ demand
C. the strike caused little trouble for the society
D. the workers got little support from the society
B
Late last year, I needed to transport some furniture from our house to my son’s flat in central London. I should have paid a man to do it, but foolishly confident in my driving ability, I decided to hire a lorry and drive it myself.
Moving the lorry backward in my yard, I crashed into a small shed, causing permanent damage. Fortunately I owned the shed. I loaded up the furniture and set out. By now it was rush hour. My nerves broke down, as I drove the huge lorry through the streets nervously.
At last I arrived at Charlotte Street and found an available parking space. I moved the lorry into it only to notice three people at a pavement cafe waving to me. I got out, trembling violently, like one who has just finished a stormy Atlantic crossing. “You’ve hit the car parked behind you,” they said. I examined the car. There were white scratches on its front face. It bore a disabled sign. So, now I was a bad driver and a bad man. Under the severe look of the three, I left an apologetic note on the damaged car’s wingscreen, giving my phone number.
I unloaded the furniture, dripping the sweat. wanting only to escape from the monster, I drove it back to its base at Edgware. On arrival, the boss told me I must fill it up with petrol before returning it. “Just charge me,” I cried, still shaking with fear. He stared at me with understanding. No doubt he’d witnessed others in this state before. “How about I drive you to a petrol station, you fill up, and I drive her back?” he asked.
He danced the great through the traffic so carefully that it would have shamed me if I had not been so grateful.
24. The man felt it _______ to have delivered the furniture himself.
A. grateful B. proud C. confident D. regretful
25. The man trembled violently because _______.
A. the lorry was too difficult to drive
B. he caused a terrible traffic accident
C. he was afraid to see the three men
D. the furniture was too heavy for him
26. The man said he was a bad man most probably because _____.
A. he shouldn’t have driven the lorry himself
B. he made the traffic accident on purpose
C. he shouldn’t cause trouble for the disabled
D. he parked the big lorry on the pavement
27. The writer intended to suggest that ________.
A. it was thrilling to drive a lorry
B. being too confident is foolish
C. it was hard to avoid accidents
D. the bass was expert in driving
C
It’s easy to keep your ageing brain as quick as it was in college. Log on to a website full of brain games or download the right apps, and within 20 minutes you’ll be doing your part to sharpen your memory and slow the decline of your mental functions. At least that’s what the companies behind this booming industry would have you believe. But is it true?
Concrete proof about the benefits of brain games is hard to come by, experts say, when it comes to measurably improving aspects of mental fitness, like having a good memory. “People would really love to believe you could do something like this and make your brain better, but there’s just no solid evidence.” Says Randall W. Engle, a primary investigator at the Attention and Working Memory Lab at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
That’s not to say brain games are without benefit. Experts say these kinds of mental exercises can change your brain. The brain changes with just about everything you do, including mental training exercises. But numerous studies have shown that brain game lack what researchers call “transfer.” In other words, repeating a game over and over again teaches you how to play the game and get better at it but your brain ageing won’t necessarily come to a stop.
“It’s like, you walk through fresh snow, you leave a trace. If you walk the same route again, the trace gets deeper and deeper,” says Ursula Staudinger, director of the Butler Columbia Ageing Center at Columbia University. The fact that structural changes occur does not imply that in general this brain has become more capable. It has become more capable of doing exactly the tasks it was practicing.
28. We can infer from the first paragraph that _______.
A. brain games improve the memory
B. brain ageing actually can be quit
C. people don’t believe brain games
D. the author doubt the effect of brain games.
29. What does Engle think of the functions of brain games?
A. They really make difference.
B. Their effects still need proving.
C. People like to be led by the nose
D. people don’t believe the effects.
30. The underlined word most probably means _______.
A. stopping the brain ageing
B. having the brain working.
C. making the brain more passive.
D. speeding up the brain’s ageing.
31. Which can be the best title of the passage?
A. Games Stop Brain Aging
B. Unavoidable Brain Aging.
C. Games’ Roles Need Proving.
D. Games Improve Your Brain.
D
Culture shock occurs when people have been suddenly thrown into a new culture. Newcomers may be anxious because they don’t speak the language. Neither do they know the customs or understand the people’s behavior in daily life.
Quite often the visitor find that “yes” may not always mean “yes”, that friendliness does not necessarily mean friendship, or that statements that appear to be serious are really intended as jokes. the foreigners may be unsure as when to shake hands, when to start conversations, or how to approach a stranger. The idea of culture shock helps explain feeling of puzzlement and confusion.
Language problems do not account for all the setback that people feel. When one has lost everything that was once familiar, such as understanding a transportation system, knowing how to register for university classes, or knowing how to make friends, difficulties in coping with the new society may arise.
When an individual enters a strange culture, he or she feels like a fish out of water. Newcomers feel at times that they do not belong to the culture and feel deserted by the native members of the culture. When this happens, visitors may want to reject everything about the new environment and may glorify and sing their own praises of the positive aspects of their own culture. On the other side, more visitors may sneeze at their native country by rejecting its value and instead choosing to approve of the value of the new country. This may occur as an attempt to accept the new culture in order to be taken in by the people in it.
32. What do people feel when they are abruptly in a new culture?
A. Excited. B. Delighted. C. Upset. D. Hopeless.
33. We can infer from the second paragraph that _______.
A. it’s impossible to get used to a new culture
B. people feel confused due to culture shock
C. foreigners often don’t mean what they say
D. most foreigners are usually quite humorous
34. The biggest barrier people often meet with in a new country is _____.
A. the language B. the transportation
C. the environment D. the puzzlement
35. A few immigrants say no to everything of the new country because ________.
A. They miss their native culture seriously.
B. they know nothing about the culture.
C. they can’t enter the mainstream society.
D. they really regret having immigrated.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的较佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Business owners are often buried in some demands and “duties”. So, learning to say “no” and focus on the right things is very important. Vickie Milazzo, a very successful businessman and author, has some useful advice.
Use your time wisely. 36 You have to work hard at them every day, sometimes in very small steps. Remember, Rome wasn’t built in a day.
Don’t try to make everything perfect. Sometimes success may not look like what you expected. 37 If you are flexible and can adjust your goals, your goal is often easier to achieve.
38 You cannot learn much from someone else who is struggling to achieve the same goal as you are. Therefore, look around for who have achieved what you want. Model yourself after them.
Keep it fresh. 39 Recall your reasons to enter the business. Finding that desire again will often renew your energy.
Finally, give yourself a break. if you stepped back and looked at your daily routine calmly, as if it were happening to your best friend, what would your advice be? Would it be: Slow down? 40 Or spend a few moments enjoying the day?
A. Find successful people to learn and imitate.
B. Take a few deep breaths?
C. Put all the eggs in one basket.
D. So, you should adjust your goal when necessary.
E. Do you remember why you chose your career?
F. Quit and set a new one for you.

Once a businessman got so deep in a debt crisis that he was at the end of his rope.

Thus, it was established in 1636 by vote of the Great and General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

In 1638, John Harvard, pastor of Charlestown, passed away. He left his library and half his estate to the institution, 66 was the biggest donation ever since its establishment.

Culture shock occurs when people have been suddenly thrown into a new culture. Newcomers may be anxious because they don’t speak the language. Neither do they know the customs or understand the people’s behavior in daily life.
Quite often the visitor find that “yes” may not always mean “yes”, that friendliness does not necessarily mean friendship, or that statements that appear to be serious are really intended as jokes. the foreigners may be unsure as when to shake hands, when to start conversations, or how to approach a stranger. The idea of culture shock helps explain feeling of puzzlement and confusion.
Language problems do not account for all the setback that people feel. When one has lost everything that was once familiar, such as understanding a transportation system, knowing how to register for university classes, or knowing how to make friends, difficulties in coping with the new society may arise.
When an individual enters a strange culture, he or she feels like a fish out of water. Newcomers feel at times that they do not belong to the culture and feel deserted by the native members of the culture. When this happens, visitors may want to reject everything about the new environment and may glorify and sing their own praises of the positive aspects of their own culture. On the other side, more visitors may sneeze at their native country by rejecting its value and instead choosing to approve of the value of the new country. This may occur as an attempt to accept the new culture in order to be taken in by the people in it.
32. What do people feel when they are abruptly in a new culture?
A. Excited. B. Delighted. C. Upset. D. Hopeless.
33. We can infer from the second paragraph that _______.
A. it’s impossible to get used to a new culture
B. people feel confused due to culture shock
C. foreigners often don’t mean what they say
D. most foreigners are usually quite humorous
34. The biggest barrier people often meet with in a new country is _____.
A. the language B. the transportation
C. the environment D. the puzzlement
35. A few immigrants say no to everything of the new country because ________.
A. They miss their native culture seriously.
B. they know nothing about the culture.
C. they can’t enter the mainstream society.
D. they really regret having immigrated.
