Text 6 W:So you had a talk with your dad,didn’t you? M:Yes. But my dad did not seem interested. He insisted that I go to college first after I graduate from high school. W:What did you say then? M:I told him that I want to work for a while before I decide what I’m going to do. W:Did he agree with you? M:Well,he said it is not easy for a high school student to find a job. W:It’s true.

M:Maybe we should have Mother’s Day every day instead of just once a year. W:It’s a good idea,Jeff,but I can’t get up so early to make breakfast for her every day.

He was angry. He took a picture of a bill of $100 and sent it to the police. Several days later,he got another letter from the police. Taking it out of the envelope,he saw a photo of prison. He immediately sent $100 back to the police. 第二部分:閱讀(共兩節(jié),滿(mǎn)分50分) 第一節(jié)(共15小題;每小題2. 5分,滿(mǎn)分37. 5分) 閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 A Wine and beaches,fireworks and music… our readers recommend some fantastic festivals.

Many of them are homeless. All of them are hungry. At around 9:30 each night,Munoz’s truck arrives,filled with hot food,coffee and hot chocolate. For more than four years,Munoz and his family have been feeding those in need seven nights a week,365 days a year. Munoz was born in Colombia and his father died in an accident when he was young. When his mother found it difficult to support Munoz and his sister,she made her way to New York,finding work in Brooklyn as a nurse. As immigrants(移民),they often suffered starvation. Later Munoz found a job as a bus driver. “When I see these guys on the street,it’s like seeing me 20 years ago when I came to this country,” Munoz recalls. Munoz began his meal program—An Angel in Queens—in the summer of 2004. Within a few months,Munoz and his mother were preparing 20 home-cooked meals daily. Numbers gradually increased over the years to 35 per night,then 60. In recent months,that number has jumped to as many as 140 meals a night. Munoz gets up around 5:00 a.m. to drive his bus route,and he calls home on his breaks to see how the cooking is going. When he gets home around 5:30 p.m. —often stopping to pick up food donations—he helps pack up meals before heading out to “his corner” in Jackson Heights. “He comes here without fail,” says one of the men. “It could be cold,it could be really hot,but he’s here. ” Watch Munoz in action in Queens,New York. “If I don’t go,I’m going to feel bad,” he says. “I know they’re going to be waiting for me. ” Munoz estimates(估計(jì))that food and gas cost approximately$400 to 450 a week; he and his family are funding the operation through their savings and his weekly$700 paycheck. Asked why he spends so much time to help people he doesn’t know,he answers,“I have a stable job,my mom,my family,a house… everything I want,I have. And these guys don’t”.So I just think,“OK,I have the food. At least for today they’re going to have a meal to eat. ” Munoz was named one of the CNN heroes. 文章大意:本文是一篇記敘文。主要講述了一名公共汽車(chē)司機(jī)Munoz和他家人盡全力幫助那些失業(yè)并且饑餓的人。 24.Why did Munoz’s mother leave Colombia for New York?__C__ A.Because Munoz’s father worked in New York. B.Because they were not used to the life in Colombia. C.Because she couldn’t support the family in Colombia. D.Because she was born in New York. 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“When his mother found it difficult to support Munoz and his sister,she made her way to New York,finding work in Brooklyn as a nurse. ”可知當(dāng)他的母親發(fā)現(xiàn)很難養(yǎng)活Munoz和他的妹妹時(shí),她去了紐約,在布魯克林找到了一份護(hù)士的工作。由此可知,Munoz的母親移民紐約是因?yàn)樵诟鐐惐葋喫裏o(wú)法支撐這個(gè)家了。故選C。 25.As immigrants,Munoz’s family __B__. A.were often helped by the government B.often went hungry C.were looked down upon D.went begging in the street 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“As immigrants(移民),they often suffered starvation. ”可知作為移民,他們經(jīng)常挨餓。由此可知,作為移民,Munoz的家人經(jīng)常挨餓。故選B。 26.Which word can be used to describe Munoz?__B__ A.Lucky. B.Kind. C.Adventurous. D.Devoted. 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中“Asked why he spends so much time to help people he doesn’t know,he answers,’I have a stable job,my mom,my family,a house… everything I want,I have. And these guys don’t. So I just think,OK,I have the food. ’At least for today they’re going to have a meal to eat. ”可知當(dāng)被問(wèn)及為什么花這么多時(shí)間去幫助陌生人時(shí),他回答:“我有一份穩(wěn)定的工作,我媽媽?zhuān)业募彝?,一所房子……我想要的,我都有。這些人沒(méi)有。所以我就想,’好吧,我有食物了,至少今天讓他們能吃上飯?!苯Y(jié)合文章講到Munoz花很長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間盡其所能地去幫助別人,說(shuō)明他是一個(gè)很善良的人。故選B。 27.What is the main idea of the text?__A__ A.A bus driver provided free home-cooked meals. B.God helps those who help themselves. C.The government helped immigrants. D.CNN heroes were asked to help immigrants. 解析:主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段中“Every day,unemployed men gather in Jackson Heights,Queens. Many of them are homeless. All of them are hungry. At around 9:30 each night,Munoz’s truck arrives,filled with hot food,coffee and hot chocolate. For more than four years,Munoz and his family have been feeding those in need seven nights a week,365 days a year. ”可知每天,失業(yè)的男人都聚集在皇后區(qū)的杰克遜高地。他們中的許多人無(wú)家可歸。他們都餓了。每天晚上9點(diǎn)半左右,穆諾茲的卡車(chē)就會(huì)來(lái),里面裝滿(mǎn)了熱食物、咖啡和熱巧克力。四年多來(lái),穆諾茲和他的家人每年365天,每周7個(gè)晚上都在為那些需要幫助的人提供食物。結(jié)合文章主要講述了Munoz是一名公共汽車(chē)司機(jī),他和家人通過(guò)運(yùn)送免費(fèi)的家常菜來(lái)幫助那些失業(yè)且饑餓的人。由此可知,這篇文章的主旨是一位巴士司機(jī)提供免費(fèi)的家常飯。故選A。 C Have you ever felt that reading a good book makes you better able to connect with your fellow human beings? If so,the results of a new scientific study back you up,but only if your reading material is literary fiction (文藝小說(shuō)).Psychologists David Comer Kidd and Emanuele Castano,at the New School for Social Research in New York,have proved that reading literary fiction improves the ability to sense and understand other people’s feelings. In a series of five experiments,1,000 participants were given texts to read,either parts of popular fiction,or more literary texts. The pair then used a variety of Theory of Mind methods to measure how accurately (精確的)the participants could identify feelings in others. Scores were higher for those who had read literary fiction than for those with popular fiction or non-fiction texts. “What great writers do is to turn you into the writer. In literary fiction,the incompleteness of the characters turns your mind to trying to understand the minds of others,” said Kidd. “Some writing is what you call ’writerly’,you fill in the gaps and participate,and some is “readerly”,and you’re cheered. We tend to see “readerly” more in fictions like adventure and romance,where the author put down your experience as a reader. Writerly fiction or literary fiction lets you go into a new environment and you have to find your own way,”Kidd said. However,although Castano and Kidd proved that literary fiction improves social empathy (共情) ,they were not prepared to use the results to determine whether a piece of writing is worthy of being called literary. “These are aesthetic (美學(xué)的)and stylistic concerns which as psychologists we can’t and don’t want to give opinions about,” said Kidd. “Neither do we argue that people should only read literary fiction; it’s just that only literary fiction seems to improve Theory of Mind in the short term. There are likely benefits of reading popular fiction — certainly enjoyment. We just did not measure them. ” 文章大意:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了看文學(xué)小說(shuō)能提升人們感知和理解他人情緒的能力,即增進(jìn)共情。 28.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?__A__ A.The research process. B.The research subjects. C.The research purpose. D.The research approaches. 解析:主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章第二段“In a series of five experiments,1,000 participants were given texts to read,either parts of popular fiction,or more literary texts. The pair then used a variety of Theory of Mind methods to measure how accurately (精確的)the participants could identify feelings in others. Scores were higher for those who had read literary fiction than for those with popular fiction or non-fiction texts. ”(在一系列五項(xiàng)實(shí)驗(yàn)中,1 000名參與者被要求閱讀文本,要么是部分流行小說(shuō),要么是更多的文學(xué)文本。然后兩人使用各種心理理論方法來(lái)衡量參與者識(shí)別他人情感的準(zhǔn)確性。閱讀文學(xué)小說(shuō)的人比閱讀通俗小說(shuō)或非小說(shuō)文本的人得分更高。)可知,本段主要描述了實(shí)驗(yàn)的操作過(guò)程。故選A。 29.Which of the following book may probably be “writerly”?__D__ A.A book about a love story. B.A book bringing nothing but enjoyment. C.A book about an adventure story. D.A book making you participate in the plot. 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三段內(nèi)容““Some writing is what you call ’writerly’,you fill in the gaps and participate,and some is “readerly”,and you’re cheered. ”(有些寫(xiě)作是所謂的’作家式’寫(xiě)作,你填補(bǔ)空白并參與其中;有些寫(xiě)作是’讀者式’寫(xiě)作,你會(huì)受到鼓舞。)可推知,讓你參與到故事情節(jié)中來(lái)是一種’作家式’寫(xiě)作。故選D。 30.What’s Kidd’s opinion on popular fictions?__B__ A.They are of great value. B.They can bring joy to people. C.They are not worthy of being read. D.Their benefits can not be measured. 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段“There are likely benefits of reading popular fiction—certainly enjoyment. ”(讀通俗小說(shuō)可能有好處——當(dāng)然是享受)可知,Kidd認(rèn)為通俗小說(shuō)可以給人們帶來(lái)快樂(lè)。故選B。 31.What is the best title for the text?__D__ A.To Read or Not to Read. B.Literary Fiction or Popular Fiction. C.Top Tips on How to Choose a Book. D.Reading Literary Fiction Improves Empathy. 解析:主旨大意題。通讀全文,特別是第一段“Psychologists David Comer Kidd and Emanuele Castano,at the New School for Social Research in New York,have proved that reading literary fiction improves the ability to sense and understand other people’s feelings. ”(紐約新社會(huì)研究學(xué)院的心理學(xué)家大衛(wèi)·科默·基德和伊曼紐爾·卡斯塔諾證明,閱讀文學(xué)小說(shuō)可以提高感知和理解他人感受的能力)以及最后一段“l(fā)iterary fiction improves social empathy”(文學(xué)小說(shuō)提高共情)可知,本文主要介紹了研究發(fā)現(xiàn)看文學(xué)小說(shuō)能提升人們感知和理解他人情緒的能力,即增進(jìn)共情。所以“Reading Literary Fiction Improves Empathy. ”(閱讀文學(xué)小說(shuō)可以增進(jìn)共情)”作為文章標(biāo)題最為合適。故選D。 D Mandy and Joe have been married for five years and they both love travelling to new countries. But while this shared hobby brings them together,it is also a source of contention.“I do all the planning and book,” says Mandy. “Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy it,but if Joe paid a bit more attention,he wouldn’t have turned up for a flight to Grenada packed for a winter city break. ’Jumpers and boots?!’ I cried. ’You’re supposed to have packed shorts and T-shirts—it’s 30 ℃ in the Caribbean!’ Then I realized he thought we were going to Granada,in Spain. ” How Joe and Mandy each approach their travel plans is just one example of the many ways in which men and women differ. Yet,is what goes on inside our minds and bodies really so different? Furthermore,are we born that way? On this issue scientists are divided. The majority of scientists believed that patterns of behaviour thought to be more male or female are learnt firstly from our parents,then from our peers(同齡人)and,ultimately,from the societies in which we live. As Simone de Beauvoir famously said,“One is not born,but rather becomes,a woman. ” On the other side of the fence sat those who believed that male and female brains are actually wired differently. In one study in which 34 monkeys were required to interact with different types of toys,the males showed a strong preference for toys with wheels rather than soft toys,whereas the females were noticeably drawn to soft toys. These preferences were clearly not the result of parental influence. Whatever the truth behind the differences between men and women,we can safely conclude that although the social impact on how we think and behave is undeniable,there exists a biological contribution. The question that now needs answering is to what extent biology affects the choices we make and the way other people treat us. 文章大意:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,文章以Mandy和Joe的故事為切入點(diǎn),主要介紹男人和女人在行為模式上不同的原因。 32.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 1 probably mean?__A__ A.Disagreement. B.Satisfaction. C.Inspiration. D.Information. 解析:詞句猜測(cè)題。while意為“盡管”,由“this shared hobby brings them together(共同的愛(ài)好讓他們走到一起)”可知,句子表示“雖然共同的愛(ài)好讓他們走到一起,但這也是爭(zhēng)論的來(lái)源”,因此劃線詞“contention”的意思是“爭(zhēng)論”,即Disagreement,故選A。 33.What topic does the text focus on?__C__ A.Whether men and women are different. B.Why minds and bodies are so different. C.What causes the sex difference. D.How different males and females are. 解析:推理判斷題。通讀全文,尤其是第二段的“How Joe and Mandy each approach their travel plans is just one example of the many ways in which men and women differ. Yet,is what goes on inside our minds and bodies really so different? Furthermore,are we born that way?”(喬和曼迪如何處理他們的旅行計(jì)劃只是男人和女人在許多方面不同的一個(gè)例子。然而,我們的大腦和身體內(nèi)部發(fā)生的事情真的如此不同嗎?此外,我們是天生如此嗎?)可知,本文主要論述的是男人和女人在行為模式上不同的原因,即What causes the sex difference,故選C。 34.What does the study about monkeys prove?__C__ A.Monkeys have their own preferences. B.Parents indeed have strong impacts. C.Men and women are born different. D.Females and males behave differently. 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段的“On the other side of the fence sat those who believed that male and female brains are actually wired differently. ”(另一方面,那些反對(duì)此觀點(diǎn)的人認(rèn)為男性和女性的大腦實(shí)際上是不同的。)和“These preferences were clearly not the result of parental influence. ”(這些偏好顯然不是父母影響的結(jié)果。)可知,關(guān)于猴子的研究證明了男人和女人是天生不同的。故選C。 35.Which statement about sex differences does the author probably agree with?__A__ A.Biology contributes to the difference. B.Biology mostly affects our choices. C.Social influence can be ignored. D.Peers have more impact than parents. 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的“there exists a biological contribution. The question that now needs answering is to what extent biology affects the choices we make and the way other people treat us. ”(它也有生物學(xué)方面的影響。現(xiàn)在需要回答的問(wèn)題是,生物學(xué)在多大程度上影響了我們的選擇以及別人對(duì)待我們的方式。)可知,作者可能同意的關(guān)于性別差異的觀點(diǎn)是生物學(xué)造成了這種差異。故選A。 第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2. 5分,滿(mǎn)分12. 5分) 閱讀下面短文,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng),選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 In America,it’s long been a tradition that tips are given to a person who provides good service. Of course,the tip is in addition to the bill. __36. F__ The general rule is to tip according to the service. Restaurants You may be surprised to know that waiters at the restaurants usually get low pay. __37. A__ Therefore,please make sure to tip properly when you visit a restaurant. For a full-service,sit-down meal,15 to 20 percent of the pretax (稅前的) bill is customary. __38. C__ Travel You should tip a taxi driver around 10% of your taxi fare,because the taxi driver usually helps you load and unload the bags.

I decided to walk to the neighborhood store where it sold my favorite thing, ice cream. I pulled a friend towards the ice cream store, almost passing out from the burning sun on the way. As we walked on, my friend kept saying that it was too hot. She thought that she was stupid to decide to come with me to buy ice cream. I felt sorry and tried to encourage her. “We’re almost there. Just think of the cool and sweet taste of ice cream in your mouth. It’ll be worth the walk,”I told her. But I had to admit that the store was quite a distance from our houses. During the journey, my mouth began to become dry and I wanted to drink. When we were about a block away from the store,I noticed an old lady who was walking in our direction. She was about 70 years old. She had a big back problem, so she was unable to keep her back straight. She was struggling, pushing a shopping cart full of things like the soap, bread and water. With each step toward her, we began to see her appearance more clearly. It appeared that she was often unhappy and easy to get angry. I looked at my friend to see if she had noticed her. I could see that she had and that she disliked the old lady due to the lady’s appearance. As we approached the lady pushing the shopping cart, my friend directed me away from the old lady and the cart. I began to observe other passers-by. They were also trying to avoid her. Suddenly I heard a terrible sound behind me. I quickly turned around to see what it was. I found the lady’s cart had been knocked over by something on the ground.

I watched in shock as the lady bent down slowly and tried hard to collect her things. I turned to my friend and asked. “Shall we go and help her ”“It is not we who knocked her shopping cart over,”my friend said impatiently, walking ahead. I stood there for a moment, suddenly feeling sorry for this pitiful lady. “I’ll help her. ”I said with determination. Paragraph 2: ThenmyfriendcontinuedwalkingonwhileIwenttothelady. “Let me help you,”I said as I helped her get the cart up. The lady looked up and said tearfully,“Thank you!”Then I helped her put things back into her cart. To my surprise, some passers-by joined me, including my friend. With everything put into her cart, my friend and I helped push it to her house. If it were not for the incident, we would have had delicious ice cream to eat, but we didn’t feel regretful, for what we did was meaningful.
