第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40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。

A

Nearly 60 million visitors flooded to the 384 national parks across America every year. And you won't have to wander far from home to enjoy one of these national treasures, with Michigan's Isle Royale National Park nearby.

Located 56 miles from Copper Harbor on Michigan's Upper

Peninsula, the park remains a desolate area that can only be reached by tour boat. With the exception of the Rock Harbor Lodge, which offers both rooms with private baths and accommodations in the form of small cottages, the 572,000 acres that make up the 45-mile-long park are rough, threaded with hiking paths that lead to tents-only campsites. You are likely to see a deer crossing mist-covered ponds in search of breakfast, gaze bald eagles flying overhead, or hear a beaver (河狸) clapping its tail on the water. If you are especially lucky, you might even glimpse a grey wolf, nearly dying out from hunting on the mainland.

Plenty of hiking paths open the area to exploration. The 4-mile Stroll Path winds through various trees and offers a tour of the island's history, including prehistoric Indian mines. The Jungle Path leads to Scoville Point—a perfect picnic spot surrounded on three sides by the shining waters of Lake Superior.

You can also rent a boat at the park's service center and row down the shore to the Rock Harbor Lighthouse. Here park's service employees use nets to show how lake fishes used to be caught by the original local people. Their catch ends up on the dinner menu at the Rock Harbor Lodge.

The park is open from mid-April through October; Rock Harbor Lodge is open from Memorial Day weekend until just after Labor Day.

21．The underlined phrase “a desolate area” in the 2nd paragraph probably means .

A．an undeveloped area B．an inaccessible area C．an area deserted by tourists D．an area protected by government

22．What can we infer from the passage?

A．Indians used to hunt grey wolves to make a living.

B．Tourists can only visit the park by walking or hiking.

C．The number of grey wolves is smaller than that of deer.

D．Food provided by Rock Harbor Lodge is shipped from outside.

23．What is the main idea of the passage?

A．Safety tips of the natural park.

B．Attractions of the natural park.

C．Tourist service of the natural park.

D．Environmental protection of the natural park.

B

Barbara McClintock was one of the most important scientists of the 20th century. She made important discoveries about genes and chromosomes (染色体)．

Barbara Mclintock was born in 1902 in Hartford, Connecticut. Her family moved to the Brooklyn area of New York City in 1908. Barbara was an active child with interests in sports and music. She also developed an interest in science.

She studied science at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. Barbara was among a small number of undergraduate students to receive training in genetics in 1921. Years later, she noted that few college students wanted to study genetics.

Barbara McClintock decided to study botany, the scientific study of plants, at Cornell University. She completed her undergraduate studies in 1923. McClintock decided to continue her education at Cornell. She completed the master's degree in 1925. Two years later, she finished all her requirements for the doctorate degree.

McClintock stayed at Cornell after she completed her education. She taught students botany. The 1930s was not a good time to be a young scientist in the United States. The country was in the middle of the great

economic depression. Millions of Americans were unemployed. Male scientists were offered jobs. But female geneticists were not much in demand.

An old friend from Cornell, Marcus Rhoades, invited McClintock to spend the summer of 1941 working at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. It is a research center on Long Island, near New York City. McClintock started a temporary job with the genetics department. A short time later, she accepted a perpetual position in the laboratory and got continual incomes. This gave her the freedom to continue her research without repeatedly asking for financial aid.

By the 1970s, her discoveries had had an effect on everything from genetic engineering to cancer research. McClintock won the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1983 for her discovery of the ability of genes to change positions on chromosomes. She was the first American woman to win an unshared Nobel Prize.

24．Why was McClintock awarded a Nobel Prize?

A．Because she received a degree in genes and chromosomes.

B．Because she contributed to the development of genetic engineering and cancer research.

C．Because she made important discoveries about genes and chromosomes.

D．Because she was the first American woman that studied genes and chromosomes.

25．When did McClintock get a doctorate degree?

A．In 1921.B．In 1923.

C．In 1925. D．In 1927.

26．In the middle of the great economic depression in the US, .

A．young female scientists might have trouble finding a job

B．male scientists were in great demand

C．female geneticists were not in demand at all

D．male scientists were out of work

27．What does the underlined word “perpetual” mean?

A．Permanent. B．Difficult.

C．Useful. D．Complex.

Elizabeth Freeman was born about 1742 to African American parents who were slaves. At the age of six months she was acquired, along with her sister, by John Ashley, a wealthy Massachusetts slaveholders. She became known as “Mumbet” or “Mum Bett.”

For nearly 30 years Mumbet served the Ashley family. One day, Ashley's wife tried to strike Mumbet's sister with a spade. Mumbet protected her sister and took the blow instead. Furious, she left the house and refused to come back. When the Ashleys tried to make her return, Mumbet consulted a lawyer, Theodore Sedgewick. With his help, Mumbet sued (起诉) for her freedom.

While serving the Ashleys, Mumbet had listened to many discussions of the new Massachusetts constitution. If the constitution said that all people were free and equal, then she thought it should apply to her. Eventually, Mumbet won her freedom—the first slave in Massachusetts to do so under the new constitution.

Strangely enough, after the trial, the Ashleys asked Mumbet to come back and work for them as a paid employee. She declined and instead went to work for Segdewick. Mumbet died in 1829, but her legacy lived on in her many descendants (后裔). One of her great-grandchildren was

W．E.B. Du Bois, one of the founder of the NAACP, and an important writer and spokesperson for African American civil rights.

Mumbet's tombstone still stands in the Massachusetts cemetery where she was buried. It reads, in part: “She was born a slave and remained a slave and remained a slave for nearly thirty years. She could neither read nor write, yet in her own sphere she had no superior or equal.”

28．What do we know about Mumbet according to Paragraph 1?

A．She was a slaveholder. B．She was born a slave.

C．She had a famous sister. D．She was born into a rich family.

29．What did Mumbet learn from discussions about the new constitution?

A．She should always obey her owners' orders.

B．How to apply for a job.

C．How to be a good servant.

D．She should be as free and equal as whites.

30．What did Mumbet do after the trial?

A．She chose to work for a lawyer.

B．She found the NAACP.

C．She continued to serve the Ashleys.

D．She went to live with her grandchildren.

31．What is the text mainly about?

A．A story of a famous writer and spokesperson.

B．The friendship between a lawyer and a slave.

C．The life of a brave African American woman.

D．A trial that shocked the whole world.

People who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds. It's possible that being full of vim and vigor helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh.

“We need to take more seriously the possibility that a positive emotional style is a major player in disease risk，”says psychologist Sheldon Cohen, the study's lead researcher.

In a previous study, Cohen and his colleagues found that people who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop sniffles, coughs, and other cold symptoms.

Those findings were interesting, but they didn't prove that a person's attitude affects whether he or she gets sick. Instead, it was still probable that a person's underlying personality is what matters.

Evidence suggests, for instance, that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic, with high self-respect and a sense of control over life. This would mean that who we are, not how we feel, finally decides our chances of catching colds.

To figure out which mattered more (personality or emotions). The CMU team interviewed 193 healthy adults. The researchers talked to each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks. They told the researchers about the positive and negative feelings that they had experienced that day.

The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected. Their symptoms, however, differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous 2 weeks.

Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus, for example, 28 percent developed coughs and stuffy (堵塞) noses. On the other hand, those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less positive. Scientists argue about whether negative emotions or positive emotions have a stronger effect on how healthy we are. For now, it cannot hurt to look on the bright side more often than not.

32．What is the text mainly about?

A．How to get rid of colds. B．Attitude determines life.

C．Smiles turn away colds. D．Different opinions about colds.

33．The phrase “full of vim and vigor” underlined in Paragraph 1 probably means .

A．ignorant B．well-informed

C．energetic D．in low spirits

34．According to the research, persons who are likely to catch colds should be?

A．Who have negative attitude towards their life.

B．Who are very emotional and optimistic.

C．Who are open-minded and outgoing.

D．Who have trouble with their noses.

35．The last paragraph implies that .

A．positive and negative emotions have good aspects

B．people who have been less negative tend to catch colds

C．keeping an optimistic state of mind is good for health

D．positive emotions have a stronger effect on health

This Way to Dreamland

Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what's happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy. 36 They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.

But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. 37 Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?

So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?

First, understand that some opportunities (机会) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams. 38 And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you're daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.

It's also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”，being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. 39

Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. 40

Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.

A．Having interesting things to think about also helps.

B．They stare off into space and wander by themselves.

C．Without wandering minds, we wouldn't have relatively, Coke or Post-it notes.

D．At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.

E．It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive.

F．Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand.

G．Therefore, it's a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you're in the daydream zone.
