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和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Zheng Pengyu: Interest is the best tea cher. Classrooms that weren’t fixed could give students the chance to explore their interests. At the same time, they would be able to learn on their own because they would have to make their own decisions. All in all, the new system would be a good chance to inspire students’ love for studying.
Sun Yao: Despite its benefits, I’m worried about whether the new system would work. Going to different classrooms would take up a big part of our break time and we would have less time to relax after class. Also, not all schools could offer so many different classes.
Shi Zhenghan: I support students learning in different classes. It would solve the problem of some students thinking the classes are too easy while some think they are too difficult. Teachers cou ld also teach more effectively. What’s more, friendships built while in different classes might be a pleasant surprise.
Zhou Qingqing: In my opinion, studying in different classrooms might affect students’ psychological development. They might find it difficult to develop deep and strong friendships with other students if they had to change classrooms constantly. They would also lose their sense of belonging to a certain class.
Hu Qile: I applaud the idea. It would help teachers set up special teaching plans for different classes. For students, making choices by themselves could encourage them to be responsible. Changing classrooms could also help remove the boredom of doing the same dull routine (惯例) every day.
Wang Xiaoqian: The new system migh t help with students’ individual development, but I still prefer the current system. Studying in one fixed classroom, students with different academic levels can help each other. Spending your senior middle school years with the same classmates is an unforgettable experience.
21. According to Sun Yao, which of the following sentences is TRUE?
A. The new system will work if great measures are taken.
B. All the schools can’t afford so many di fferent classes.
C. Students will have more time to relax.
D. He supports the system because of its benefits.
22. Among the following people, who prefers the new system?
A. Sun Yao
B. Zhou Qingqing
C. Hu Qile
D. Wang Xiaoqian
23. What is the passage about?
A. Different opinions about changing classrooms.
B. Students find it difficult to develop friendship.
C. Schools should offer different classes to students.
D. Changing classrooms can help with students’ individual development.
B
The new high-speed railway line between Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Uygur(维吾尔族) self-governing region, and Lanzhou, capital of Gansu province, has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hours.
The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for the Spring Festival.
“For the first time, I feel home is not that far away after all,” said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a high-speed train in Urumqi with six members of his family. The 35-year-old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago, and he has now settled in
Urumqi. “We nor mally drive home for the Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season,” Liang said. “Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes, so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip.”
More than 600,000 passengers traveled on the line during its first month, and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high-speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season.
The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiang’s development. All passenger trains will gradually shift to the new line, leaving the old ones to be used for goods. As a result, Xinjiang’s annual goods ability could reach 200 million me tric tons(公吨) from the current 70 million.
The line passes through areas that experience high winds, and it also crosses parts of the deserted Qinghai-Tibet Plateau（高原）and the bone-dry sands of the Gobi Desert.
The project could help China to promote its high-speed railway technology abroad, said Ma Xizhang, director of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang railway project’s management department in Xinjiang.
24. How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before?
A. About 24 hours.
B. About 6 hours.
C. About 18 hours.
D. about 12 hours.
25. What’s the main advantage of the new high-speed railway?
A. It takes more time to go to Urumqi to Lanzhou.
B. It will be more convenient for people all over the country to Xinjiang.
C. All the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivals.
D. It helps to improve Xinjiang’s development.
26. From the passage we can learn _______.
A. Xinjiang’s annual goods ability can incre ase nearly four times
B. the new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroad
C. the high-speed railway lines can’t be built across the bone-dry sands
D. the old railway lines can only carry goods now
27. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. The new high-speed railway line is good for all people to go home.
B. The new high-speed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goods.
C. Taking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to Lanzhou.
D. Businessmen seldom went home for the Spring Festival before.
C
Every Wednesday, I go to Cantata Adult Life Services, a local retirement munity in Brookfield, Illinois, US, with my classmates to do munity service.
After my very first visit to Cantata, my life changed forever. That may sound a bit dramatic, but volunteering with the elderly has changed my views on life.
Our visits last about an hour, and we bring 25-30 students every time. We play board games and cards with the residents while we’re there.
You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about “life back then”, but nothing pares to talking to the people who were actually there. Just hearing their stories has touched me in a way I never thought possible. It made me realize that it’s the little things that make life worth living. That’s something I won’t forget anytime soon.
If there’s one thing I’ve realized in my three years of visiting Cantata, it’s that presence —just being there —means more than anything to many of the residents. And despite
how busy our lives are, there’s always time to make someone’s day.
It’s easy to feel like you don’t have anything in mon with the elderly —especially when you’re a teenager. But that’s not true at all.
I hate to be overly cliched (陈词滥调的) here, but age really is just a number. As young adults, it’s important for us to realize this sooner rather than later. We can learn a lot from the elderly, and they can often benefit from teenagers too.
28. What do the volunteers do at Cantata Adult Life Services?
A. They share everything with the residents.
B. They play board games and cards with the residents.
C. They watch the residents play games.
D. They buy gifts for the residents.
29. According to the writer, what is the most important thing that volunteers can do for the elderly?
A. Playing with them.
B. Benefiting from them.
C. Helping them.
D. Being there with them.
30. What can we infer from the passage?
A. The writer didn't like volunteer work at first.
B. The writer had expected to change his views on life at Cantata.
C. The writer prefers watching movies and TV shows to talking to the elderly.
D. The writer thinks the young and the old have something in mon.
31. What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage ?
A. We don’t have anything in mon with the elderly.
B. Age is just a number.
C. Young adults and the elderly can benefit from each other.
D. It is important to play with the elderly.
D
Pierre is a 25-year-old penguin(企鹅)at the California Academy of Sciences. Due to his old age, he was losing his feathers, which made him feel too cold to swim in the pool. Therefore, biologists at the academy had a wetsuit created for this penguin to help him get back in the swimming pool.
Unlike marine(海生的)mammals, which have a layer of blubber(鲸脂)to keep them warm, penguins depend on their waterproof feathers. Without them, Pierre was unwilling to jump into the swimming pool and ended up trembling on the side of the pool while his 19 peers played in the water.
“He was cold；he would shake,” said Pam Schaller, a senior biologist. Schaller first tried a heat lamp to keep Pierre warm. Then she got another idea: if wetsuits keep humans warm in the cold Pacific, why not make one for Pierre?
Schaller designed the suit, which covered Pierre’s body and had small openings for his flippers (鳍).
“I would walk behind him and look at where there were any gaps, and cut and refit until it looked like it was extremely suitable.”she said．
One concern was that the other penguins would reject Pierre in his new suit, but in fact, they accepted his new look. He swam freely and got along with others well, although he was the only penguin with a black stomach.
Schaller couldn’t sa y for sure whether the wetsuit allowed Pierre to recover his fine feathers, but “certainly we were able to keep him fortable during a period of time that would have been very difficult for him to stay fortable”.
Pierre will take off his suit after his new feathers grow back.
32. Pierre felt too cold to swim in the pool because of_______.
A. having few feathers due to old age
B. not having a layer of blubber
C. having no wetsuit
D. others penguins rejecting him
33. The idea of making a wetsuit for Pierre came from_______.
A. total invention
B. the use of wetsuit on humans
C. the use of heat lamp
D. waterproof feathers
34. Schaller followed Pierre in order to see_______.
A. whether other penguins would reject him
B. whether the wetsuit would keep the feathers from recovering
C. if the wetsuit kept warm
D. if anywhere of the wetsuit needed to be cut and refit
35. The best title of the passage is_______.
A. Unwilling to Swim
B. Old Penguin Getting Bald(秃的)
C. Wetsuit for An old Penguin
D. Strange Look of Pierre

You must have written your research paper, your personal essay, your book review—whatever your school class requires. You think you have provided good information in the needed number of words. 36
But is it really done? Many teachers and professional writers believe that writing is revision.
37
Revision of writing is a necessary skill for students. The classroom is a good place to practice patience, concentration and listening. There are rewards with spending time with your thoughts and really taking time to pose your ideas in an orderly and reasonable way. You should put away your paper after you have written a first version, or draft. Wait several hours, maybe overnight, before working on it more. 38 Not only are you refreshed, but you’re looking at things through different eyes. That’s what revision literally means—to see again through different eyes.
Following a four-step process may help you with your paper. The first step in the process is invention. It includes forming many questions about your subject. It is called “question-storming”. 39 Then es the revision period. Take your time to read what you’ve written, to think about it, and maybe to re-shape it based on what you see now, as a kind of new person looking at it with a reader’s eyeglasses rather than a writer’s. The fourth step is called “publication”. 40 In a sense, anytime you turn it over to another person, that’s publication.
Probably, the process takes away some of the tension of writing. And worry about the quality of your writing often disappears when you share that writing.
A.Perfect writing is not possible.
B.In the second step, you draft and pose a paper.
C.And you feel good because your work is finished.
D.This is just like returning to a job after a vacation.
E.This does not mean your writing is professional publication.
F.What is most important is getting your thoughts and ideas on paper.
G.In other words, writing well means making needed changes and rewriting.
