第二部分：阅读理解（第一节共20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）

阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。

A

From the very beginningof school we make books and reading a constant source of possible failure andpublic humiliation. When children are little we make them read aloud, beforethe teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they "know"all the words they are reading. This means that when they don't know a word,they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. After having taughtfifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid themof their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and moreadventurously.

One day soon afterschool had started, I said to them, "Now I'm going to say something aboutreading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would likeyou to read a lot of books this year,but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask youquestions to find out whether you understand the books or not. If youunderstand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that'senough for me. Also I’m not going to ask you what words mean. "

The children sat stunnedand silent. Was this a teacher talking One girl, who had just come to us froma school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a longtime after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly andseriously, Mr Holt, do you really mean that" I said just as seriously,"I mean every word of it.

During the spring shereally astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk, From a glimpse ofthe illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself,"It can't be," and went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she wasreading Moby Dick , in edition with woodcuts. I said, "Don't you findparts of it rather heavy going" She answered, Oh, sure, but I just skipover those parts and go on to the next good part. "

This is exactly whatreading should be and in school so seldom is,an exciting, joyous adventure.Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get whatyou can out of it, go on to something else. How different is our mean-spirited,picky insistence that every child get every last little scrap of "understanding"that can be dug out of a book.

41. According to thepassage, children's fear and dislike of books may result from .

A. reading little andthinking little

B. reading often andadventurously

C. being made to readtoo much

D. being made to readaloud before others

42. The teacher told hisstudents to read .

A. for enjoyment B. for knowledge

C. for a largervocabulary D. for higher scoresin exams

43. Upon hearing theteacher's talk, the children probably felt that .

A. it sounded stupid

B. it was not surprisingat all

C. it sounded too goodto be true

D. it was no differentfrom other teachers' talk

44. Which of thefollowing statements about the girl is TRUE according to the passage

A. She skipped overthose easy parts while reading.

B. She had a hard timefinishing the required reading tasks.

C. She learned toappreciate some parts of the difficult books.

D. She turned out to bea top student after coming to this school.

45. From the teacher'spoint of view, .

A. children cannot tellgood parts from bad parts while reading

B. children should beleft to decide what to read and how to read

C. reading is never apleasant and inspiring experience in school

D. reading involvesunderstanding every little piece of information

B

Graph can be a very useful tool for conveyinginformation especially numbers，percentages,

and other data . Agraph gives the reader a pictureto interpret . That can be a lot moreefficient than pages and pagesexplaining the data .

Graphs canseem frightening, but reading a graph isa lot like reading a story . The graph has a title ,a main idea ,and supportingdetails .You can use your active reading skills to analyze and understandgraphs just like any other text .

Most graphshave a few basic parts: a caption or introduction paragraph, a title , a legendor key, and labeled axes. An active reader looks at each part of the graphbefore trying to interpret the data. Captions will usually tell you where thedata came from (for example, a scientific study of 400 African elephants from1980 to 2005). Captions usually summarize the author's main point as well. The title is very important. Ittells you the main idea of the graph by stating what kind of information isbeing shown. A legend, also called a key ,is a guide to the symbols and colorsused in the graph. Many graphs, including bar graphs and line graphs, have twoaxes that form a corner, Usually these axes are the left side and the bottom ofthe graph .Each axis will always have a label. The label tells you what eachaxis measures.

Bar Graphs

Abar graph has two axes and uses bars to show

amounts. In Graph 1 ,we seethat the x-axis shows grades

that students earned, andthe y-axis shows bow many

students earned each grade.You can see that 6 students

earned an A because the barfor A stretches up to 6 on the

vertical measurement. Thereis a lot of information we can

get from a simple graph likethis(See Graph 1).

Line Graphs

Aline graph looks similar to a bar graph ,but instead of

Bars, it plots points andconnects them with a line .It has the Same parts as a bar graph– two labeled axes –and can be read the same way .To read a line graph, it's importantto focus on the points of intersection rather than the line

segments between the points,This type of graph is most

commonly used to show howsomething changes over time.

Here is a graph that chartshow far a bird flies during the first Five days of its spring migration (SeeGraph 2).

The unit of measurement for the x-axis isdays. The unit of measurement for the y-axis is kilometers. Thus we can seethat ,on the first day, the pipit flew 20 kilometers. The line segment goes upbetween Day 1 and Day 2,which means that the bird flew farther on Day 2.If theline segment angled dawn, as between Day 4 and Day 5,it would mean that thebird flew fewer kilometers than the daybefore. This line graph is a quick, visual way to tell the reader about thebird's migration.

Pie Graphs

A typical pie graph looks like a circular pie. Thecircle is divided into sections, and each section represents a fraction of thedata. The graph is commonly used to show percentages; the whole pie representsl00 percent, so each piece is a fraction of the whole.

Apie graph might include a legend，or it might useicons or labels within each slice. This pie graph shows on month's expense,(See Graph 3 ).

Food $ 25

Movies $ 12

Clothing $ 36

Savings $ 20

Books $ 7

46. When used in a graph，a legend is_____

A. a guide to thesymbols and colors B.an introduction paragraph

C. the main idea D. the data

47. What is the total number of students who earneda C or better

A .4. B.6. C.10. D.20.

48. The bird covered the longest distance on _____

A. Day 1 B. Day 2 C.Day 3 D.Day 4

49. Which of the following cost Amy most

A. Food. B. Books C. Movies D.Clothing.

C

If humans were truly athome under the light of the moon and stars，we would go in darkness happily，the midnight world as visible to us as it is to the vast number ofnocturnal(夜间活动的) species on thisplanet. Instead，we are diurnalcreatures, with eyes adapted to living in the sun's light. This is a basicevolutionary fact , even though most of us don't think of ourselves as diurnalbeings. Yet it's the only way to explain what we've done to the night: We'veengineered it to receive us by fillingitwith light.

Thebenefits of this kind of engineering come with consequences一called light pollution一whose effects scientists are only now beginning to study. Lightpollution is largely the result of badlighting design，which allowsartificial light to shine outward and upward into the sky.Ⅲ-designed lighting washes out the darkness of night and completelychanges the light levels一and light rhythms—to which many forms of life, including, ourselves, have adapted.Wherever human light spills into the natural l world , some aspect or life is affected .

In mostcities the sky looks as though it has been emptied of stars, leaving behind avacant haze(霾) that mirrors our fearof the dark. We've grown so used to this orange haze that the original gloiy ofan unlit nigh, - dark enough for the planet Venus to throw shadow on Earth, iswholly beyond our experience, beyond memory almost.

We’velit up the night as if it were an unoccupied country, when nothing could befurther form the truth. Among mammals alone, the number of nocturnal species isastonishing, Light is a powerful biological force, and on many species it actsas a magnet(磁铁). The effect is sopowerful that scientists speak of songbirds and seabirds being“captured”by searchlightson land or by the light from gas flares on marine oil platforms. Migrating atnight, birds tend to collide with brightly lit tall buildings.

Frogsliving near brightly lit highways suffer nocturnal light levels that are asmuch as a million times righter than normal, throwing nearly every aspect oftheir behavior out of joint including most other creatures ,we do need darkness.Darkness is as essential to our biological welfare, to our internal clockwork,as light itself.

Livingin a glare of our making ,we have cut ourselves off from our evolutionary andcultural heritage—the light of the stars and the rhythms of day and night .In avery real sense light pollution causes us to lose sight of our true place inthe universe, to forget the scale of ourbeing, which is best measured against the dimensions of a deep nightwith the Milky Way—the edge of our galaxy arching overhead.

50.According to the passage, human being.

A.prefer to live in the darkness

B. areused to living in the day light

C. werecurious about the midnight world

D. hadto stay at home with the light of the moon

51.What does “it”(Paragraph 1) most probably refer to

A. Thenight. B. The moon C. The sky D.The planet

52. Thewriter mentions birds and frogs to.

A.provide examples of animal protection

B. showhow light pollution affects animals

C.compare the living habits of both species

D.explain why the number of certain species has declined

53. Itis implied in the last paragraph that.

A.light pollution dose harm to the eyesight of animals

B.light pollution has destroyed some of the world heritages

C.human beings cannot go to the outer space

D.human beings should reflect on their position in the universe

54.Whatmight be the best title for the passage

A. TheMagic light. B.The Orange Haze.

C. TheDisappearing Night. D.The Rhythms of Nature.

In 2004,when my daughter Becky was ten , she and my husband ,Joe, were united in theirdesire for a dog . As for me , I shared none of their canine lust.

But why , they pleaded. “Because I don’thave time to take care of a dog.” But we’ll do it.” Really You’re

goingto walk the dog Feed the dog Bathe the dog” Yes, yes , and yes .”I don’tbelieve you .” We will . We

promise.

Theydidn’t . From day two ( everyone wanted to walk the cute puppy that first day ), neither thought to walk the dog . While I was slow to accept that I would bethe one to keep thrack of her shots , to schedule her vet appointments , tofeec and clean her , Misty knew this on day one . As she looked up at the ehreenew humans in her life ( small , mediurn , and large ) , she calculated ,”The medium one is the sucker in thepack .”

Quickly , sheand I developed something very similar to a Vulcan mind meld (心灵融合) . She’d look at me with those sad brown wyes of hers , beam herneed , and then wait , trusting I would understand—which , strangely , I almost always did . In no time , she becamemy feet as I read , and splaying across my stomach as I watched television .

Even so, part of me continued to resent walking duty . Joe and Becky had promised .Not fair , I’d balk (不心甘情愿地做)silently as she and I walked . “Not fair , ” I’ d loudly remind anyone withinearshot upon our retern home .

Then oneday—January 1 , 2007 , tobe exact—my huband ‘ s doctoruttered an unthinkable word : leukemia (白血病) .With that , I spent eight to ten hours a day with Joe ine thehopital , doing anything and everything I could to ease his discomfort . Duringthose six months of hospitalizations ,Becky , 12 at the time , adjusted toother adults being in the house when she returned from school. My workcolleagues adjusted to my taking off at a moment's notice for medicalemergencies. Every part of my life changed; no part of my old routine remained.

Saveone: Misty still needed walking. At the beginning, when friends offered to takeher

through her paces, I declined because I knew theyhad their own households to deal with.

As themonths went by，I began to realize thatI actually wanted to walk Misty. The walk in the morning before I headed to thehospital was a quiet, peaceful time to gather my thoughts or to just be beforethe day's medical drama unfolded. The evening walk was a time to shake off theday's upsets and let the worry tracks in my head go to white noise.

Whenserious illness visits your household, it's , not just your daily routine andyour assumptions about the future that are no longer familiar. Pretty mucheveryone you acts differently.

NotMisty. Take her for a walk, and she had no interest in Joe's blood counts orbone marrow test results. On the street or in the park, she had only one thingon her mind: squirrels! She Was so joyous that even on the worst days, shecould make me smile. On a daily basis she reminded me that life goes on.

After Joedied in 2009，Misty slept on hispillow.

I'm grateful一to a point. The truth is, after years of balking, I've come to enjoymy walks with Misty. As I watch her chase after a squirrel, throwing her wholebeing into the here-and-now of an exercise that has never once ended invictory, she reminds me, too, that no matter how harsh the nt or unpredictablethe future , there's almost always some measure of joy to be extracted from themoment.

B.”Themedium-sized woman is the hostess.”

C."The man in the middle is the one who has the final say.”

One of the best thingsyou can do any time in the semester is go see the professor. So hoof on over toan office hour and have some one-on-one face time with someone who’ll help youmaster the material and improve your grade, to boot. But how should you havethis conversation with the professor Here are five insider tips about how tomake that office hour really count:

61.No need to get all bent out of shape aboutgoing to see the professor. The professor would actuallyliketo see you and answer your questions. Believe it or not, he orshe is on your side and is eager to see you do well. And besides, he or she hasseen many students stupider than you, so nothing you’re gong to ask will setthe record for stupidity.

62.Even though you might feel more comfortablegoing with a friend or partner, the office hour will go better if it’s just youand the professor. You’ll get in more questions, the discussion will betailored to what you need most help on, and two-party communication is almostalways more productive than committee work. You friend can wait outside for thediscussion.

63.If you can’t make the official office hours,most professors are willing to make individual, appointments to help you out.If you’re lucky enough to land such an accommodation, though, be sure you’re100 percent on time. There’s nothing that ticks off a professor more thanmaking him-or herself available for a custom office hour only to find that youdon’t care enough to come on time. And besides, the professor might leave afterten minutes, which would make your trip a total loss.

64.If you’re meeting with the professor to goover a paper or test, or to ask questions about a particular lecture orreading, make sure you bring that paper or test, or your lecture notes or acopy of the article. The professor doesn’t remember the comments he or shewrote on your individual piece of work—though he or she will be able to recall them after just a briefglance at your work. And if you have your lecture notes or the article in hand,you and the professor will be able to examine specific points that areconfusing to you, rather than just talking in a general way about the contents.

65.Office hours almost always go better if youbring a few specific questions to the meeting. It’s almost never good to starta meeting with general comments such as:“I didn’t understand what you said about [main topic of the course]”or“I couldn’t understandany of your lectures last week.”Much better isto come in with two or three conversation-starters, about a specific concept,point, or problem you didn’t understand. Keep in mind that in a fifteen-minuteoffice hour (which is how long these things usually last), two or threequestions are usually the most you’ll have time to discuss.
