第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分30分)
第一节: (共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)
阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Dubai is a city of big business, expensive hotels, skyscrapers (摩天楼), and shopping malls. In the early 20th century, Dubai was a successful trading port. People from the world stopped in Dubai to do business. But it was still a small city, and most people lived as fishermen and businessmen. Then in 1966, oil was discovered. This brought a lot of money into the area, and soon Dubai began to change.
Today Dubai is one of the world's most important business centers. In fact, each year the city gets its money mainly from business, not oil.
Recently Dubai has attracted more and more visitors from abroad. They come to relax on its beaches, and every year, millions visit just to go shopping!
Dubai is also one of the world's fastest growing cities. Many tall buildings are built in months. The city also has many man-made islands. One of these, the Palm Jumeirah, is like a palm tree and is very beautiful.
The city is still an amazing mix of people from different countries. People from 150 countries live and work in Dubai, and foreigners now outnumber Dubai natives by eight to one!
Many people welcome the city's growth. But an increasing number of Dubai natives worry about the speed of change. As a Dubai native says, “We must always remember where we came from. Our kids must know we worked very, very hard to get where we are now, and there's a lot more work to do.”
21. Why did people stop in Dubai in the early 20th century?
A. To relax. B. To buy oil. C. To go shopping. D. To do business.
22. In the last paragraph, what does the underlined part mean?
A. We should always visit Dubai. B. We should learn from foreigners.
C. We must always remember our past. D. We don’t have to worry about the future.
23. What's the main idea of the passage?
A. Dubai is growing very fast.
B. Dubai was a big city before 1966.
C. Many tall buildings are built in months.
D. Many tourists come to relax on Dubai's beaches.
B
Think about what you had for lunch: Was it a hamburger? A chicken sandwich? Barbecue? What about vegetables? Would it surprise you to learn that what you eat can affect the whole planet?
It can—in a big way. New studies show how food and its production affect the globe and its warming climate. You’ve probably heard of global warming. The temperature is on the rise because humankind has been releasing (排放) amounts of gases into the atmosphere. One of these greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide (二氧化碳).
What does this have to do with food? A big part of the carbon dioxide that we put in the atmosphere every year comes from the process of making and eating food. The production of meat contributes a lot of that carbon dioxide. And much of meat’s contribution comes from beef, which is responsible for releasing even more warming gases into the atmosphere.
The process of making a hamburger, for example, requires a lot of energy. A cow has to be fed and raised on farmland, and cow waste is a major source of methane (沼气) — an especially powerful greenhouse gas. The cow has to be killed. The meat has to be processed and shipped to a shop, which takes fuel. Most of the cow won’t even be used for meat that people eat. By the time a hamburger finally lands on a dinner plate, it has made a heavy effect on the environment.
We can reduce the production of global-warming gases by eating less beef. Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken do less harm to the environment—at least in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases released.
All kinds of meat are harder on the planet than vegetables. To grow and eat a pound of potatoes, for example, sends less than one-quarter pound of carbon dioxide into the air. So changing our diet to less meat and more vegetables, as it turns out, may do the world some good.
24. The questions asked in the first paragraph are used to _____.
A. show the author’s concern about food safety
B. express the author’s puzzlement at what to eat
C. introduce the topic to be discussed in the passage
D. remind readers of something delicious to eat
25. What is the bad news for meat-eaters?
A. Most cows are raised not for people to eat.
B. Meat producing contributes to global warming.
C. There is a lot of carbon dioxide in the meat we eat.
D. Animals begin to die off because of global warming.
26. The author wrote the passage in order to _____.
A. explain the importance of eating meat B. encourage people to choose a greener diet
C. advise people to keep a balanced diet D. introduce some healthy foods to people
C
Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills(读写能力), With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudg-mental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs (READ).
The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard-reading as a headache.” said Lisa Myton, manager of the children’s department.
Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three or four of the classes received a “paw graphed” book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April, according to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.
27. What is mainly discussed in the text?
A. Children’s reading difficulties. B. Advantages of raising dogs.
C. Service in a public library. D. A special reading program.
28. Specialists use dogs to listen to children reading because they think _______.
A. dogs are young children’s best friends
B. children can play with dogs while reading
C. dogs can provide encouragement for shy children
D. children and dogs understand each other
29. By saying “The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea,” the writer means the
library _______.
A. uses dogs to attract children B. accepts the idea put forward by ITA
C. has opened a children’s department D. has decided to train some dogs
30. The underlined part “a ‘paw graphed’ book” is most probably ________.
A. a book used in Saturday classes B. a book written by the children
C. a prize for the children D. a gift from parents

It’s normal to wake briefly during the night. 31 But if you’re waking up during the night and having trouble falling back asleep, the following tips may help.
Stay out of your head. The key to getting back to sleep is continuing to prepare your body for sleep, so remain in bed in a relaxed position. Hard as it may be, try not to stress over the fact that you’re awake, because that very stress and anxiety encourage your body to stay
awake. 32
33 If you are finding it hard to fall back asleep, try a relaxation technique such as visualization(想象), or deep breathing, which can be done without even getting out of bed. Remind yourself that although they’re not a replacement for sleep, rest and relaxation still help refresh your body.
Do a quiet, non-stimulating activity. If you’ve been awake for more than 15 minutes, try getting out of bed and doing a quiet, non-stimulating activity, such as reading a book. Keep the lights dim so as not to think that it’s time to wake up. 34 A light snack might relax you, but be careful not to eat so much that your body begins to expect a meal at that time of the day.
35 If you wake during the night feeling anxious about something, make a brief note of it on paper and delay worrying about it until the next day when you are fresh and it will be easier to resolve.
A. Make relaxation your goal, not sleep.
B. Put off worries and troubles.
C. Use a flashlight to go to the bathroom at night.
D. In fact, a good sleeper won’t even remember it.
E. Also avoid screens of any kind-computers, TVs, cell phones, iPads.
F. You’ll be much more productive and creative after a good night’s rest.
G. A good way to stay out of your head is to focus on the feeling in your body.

Have a Healthy Lifestyle
As we all know, health is very important. Only when we are healthy can we study well and enjoy life.
However, many teenagers don't pay any attention to their health, especially during the holiday. And they spend too much time watching TV, playing games and chatting on the Internet all night, which is bad for their health. For one thing, watching the screen for too long may get them nearsighted. For the other, they are likely to become much weaker as a result of a lack of physical exercise. To make matters worse, they will lose the chance to communicate with others face to face as they never go out, which may have a bad effect on their mental health.
In my opinion, they should spend less time in front of the TV or the computer, go out to take some exercise, visit some places of interest and have a healthy lifestyle.

I arrive at my office a little before 8:00 a.m. and begin by checking any messages. If possible I take a little rest about 2:00 p.m. to relax and then continue with my schedule until 6 or 7 p.m. I usually get home around 7:30 p.m., spend some time with my family, and go to bed about 11:00 p.m. You know I have two kids that I don’t see very much except on weekends. Fortunately, we spend a lot of time together on weekends, unless there’s some emergency that I have to attend to.
W: Thank you very much.
M: It’s been a pleasure.
(Text 10)
M: Good morning, everyone. It’s good to see you all here today. I believe some of you once dreamed of becoming famous. I was one of you. Now I’d like to share my story with you. As a young actor, I first arrived in Los Angeles in 1984. I saw the shining lights of the city as the plane landed and I felt excited as the first step that would lead me to fortune got under way. I imagined that the development of my dream would move smoothly and soon, I would be one of the best known faces on cinema screen throughout the world. I was confident in my first performance in 1986. I knew the lead role was perfect for me. I was anxious to become well-known. But when they offered me a small role, I saw that my plans for quick success had been ruined. Over the years I tried out for other roles, but I never got a good part. Sometimes I thought of giving up. Five years later, I found myself working in the offices of a movie company. And eventually I ended up as a manager of this company after years of hard work. You know, it isn’t easy doing this jobs. There are a lot of things you need to consider, always be ready to take responsibility if things go wrong. And you need to deal with actors who think they are the master of the world — boy, you can’t imagine what a pain that is!
