M：I went to see a Lady Gaga concert this weekend.She was amazing!

W：Wow，those tickets were super expensive，right?

M：Hey，Susie.Can I borrow your car tonight?

W：No！The last time you borrowed it，you returned it with the gas tank empty. M：Did I？I'm sorry，baby.I promise to fill the tank this time.

W：What do you need it for?

M：I want to take my mom out to dinner.

W：And I'm not invited?

M：You can come if you want.I thought you'd probably have plans with your friends. W：I do.But I'd rather go with you.Don't you think it's time for me to meet your mother?

W：I see.Well，why don't I just bring my car back in the morning？There's a show I really want to see downtown tonight.

M：Yeah.Thanks again for the invitation.I was worried I'd have to spend it alone after my parents announced they'd be in Finland.

New Orleans，Louisiana is known throughout the world for its food，music，and festivals.Every year，many visitors come to this lively city，and almost all of them spend time in the French Quarter，New Orleans' oldest neighborhood.Despite its name，you won't find many French buildings in the French Quarter.Two large fires in the 18th century destroyed most of the buildings that were built under French rule.

New Orleans' best－known street is Bourbon Street.It is appreciated for its lively bars and restaurants，but it's most famous for its annual Mardi Gras celebration.During Mardi Gras，several million people show up on Bourbon Street and party for a week straight.

Since 2005，New Orleans has been in the spotlight because of Hurricane Katrina，a Category 5 hurricane that destroyed much of the city.However，the French Quarter was not affected by the hurricane.It is a very old neighborhood，and it was built on higher and drier land.Because of this，it did not flood like the parts of the city that were built in the 20th century.

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。

A

Cosmetic surgery(整容手术) is usually performed to correct a physical

abnormality(畸形) or to enhance a normal physical feature and thus improve appearance.Cosmetic surgery is an extremely broad field that may offer reconstructive surgery for a patient after a damaging burn or other physical trauma(创伤)，yet can also be used to smooth out wrinkles，enlarge breasts，or reshape a nose.In the not so distant past，cosmetic surgery was limited only to surgery which was absolutely necessary to the health and well－being of the patient—for instance，skin－grafting for serious burns，repairing a broken nose or jaw，or treating an unseemly birthmark across the face.Cosmetic surgery was first used regularly after World War I，when treatment and reconstruction of war injuries gave hope to young soldiers.

As recently as fifty years ago，as the rich and famous began choosing elective cosmetic surgery，the subject was whispered about and considered to be stopped.Celebrities and others in elite circles would disappear for months and then appear after secret cosmetic surgery looking younger，prettier，and thinner.Over time，cosmetic surgery has become accepted and even encouraged in some circles.Today there is open acceptance of cosmetic surgery to the point that there are even television reality shows about it.

Some of the more popular forms of cosmetic surgery are liposuction(抽脂术)，in which excessive fat is sucked out of the body with a tube; laser facial resurfacing，which smoothes lines on the face around the eyes and mouth and eliminates facial blemishes; facelift，which pulls back the skin around the face，jowls and neck; and hair replacement surgery，which fills in balding areas using a patient's own hair.

Anyone interested in cosmetic surgery should consider the risks and remember that it is surgery.Not all procedures come out exactly the way doctor and patients foresee，and recovery is just like any other surgery，complete with pain and the possibility of infection.While cosmetic surgery is an option，patients should choose doctors wisely，obtain several references，and keep realistic expectations. 21．What does the passage mainly talk about?

A．The Risk and Danger of Cosmetic Surgery.

This day will be remembered in American history，wrote John Adams in 1776.People will honor it with fireworks and celebrations.He was talking about the second of July.That is the day that America got independence from the British.But the date written on the Declaration of Independence is July 4.So，since 1776，Americans have honored July 4 as the country's Independence Day.

Several early U．S.presidents died on July 4.They include John Adams，who became the second U．S.president，even though he made a mistake about the country's most important national holiday.John Adams and Thomas Jefferson，the country's third president，both died on the country's 50th anniversary of Independence

Day.James Monroe，the country's fifth president，died on July 4，1831.

Most Americans celebrate Independence Day with barbecues(烧烤晚会)，parades and fireworks.But a few celebrate by eating all the hot dogs they can.In 1970，a restaurant called Nathan's Famous has hosted a competition to see who can eat the most hot dogs in a short time.The event is now shown on major sports channels.It includes a women's contest and a men's contest.Both are held in New York City.For the last eight years，a man named Joey Chestnut has won the men's contest.In 2014，he ate 61 hot dogs in 10 minutes.The 2014 women's winner，Miki Sudo，ate 34 hot dogs.

Let's go back to those fireworks，probably the most common image related to Independence Day.Americans really love fireworks.Americans spent $675 million on fireworks last year.Most ordinary people buy about $100 worth.Cities and towns spend between $5，000 and $30，000 to put on a public show.The biggest fireworks show is in New York City.It costs about $2 million.
