Ⅱ阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)
第一节 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
“Have a nice day!” may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless. When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.
“Have a nice day. Next!” This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone (腔调) with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else’s is the management’s attempt to increase business.
The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we don’t know what to say “oh, you may have a tooth out? I’m terribly sorry, but have a nice day.”
The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don’t know has tried to be nice to you.
Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it’s nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don’t care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.
26. How does the author understand Maxie’s words?
A. Maxie shows her anxiety to the author. B. Maxie really wishes the author a good day.
C. Maxie encourages the author to stay happy D. Maxie really worries about the author’s security.
27. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. The salesgirl is rude. B. The salesgirl is bored.
C. The salesgirl cares about me. D. The salesgirl says the words as a routine.
28. By saying “Have a nice day,” a stranger may _____.
A. try to be polite to you B. express respect to you
C. give his blessing to you D. share his pleasure with you
29. According to the last paragraph, people say “Have a nice day”_______.
A. sincerely B. as thanks C. as a habit D. encouragingly
30. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Have a Nice Day—a Social Custom. B. Have a Nice Day—a Pleasant Gesture.
C. Have a Nice Day—a Heart-warming Greeting. D. Have a Nice Day—a Polite Ending of a Conversation.
B
I have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. As a doctor, mother and scientist in child development I believe there is nothing to recommend it, from the baby’s point of view.
Mothers, doctors and nurse alike have no idea of where a baby’s blood sugar level lies. All we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily annoyed. In this state, the baby is difficult to calm down and sleep is impossible. The baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth.
It is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a four-hourly feeding schedule will make a baby satisfied. The first of the experts to advocate a strict clock-watching schedule was Dr Frederic Truby King, who was against feeding in the night. I’ve never heard anything so ridiculous. Baby feeding shouldn’t follow a timetable set by the mum. What is important is feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks.
Well, at last we have copper-bottomed research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding. The research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7, 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. By the age of 8, their IQ(智商)scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable. This Research comes from Oxford and Essex University using a sample(样本)of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s, taking account of parental education, family income, a child’s sex and age, the mother’s health and feeling style. These results don’t surprise me. Feeding according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels.
I hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeding practices.
31. According to Paragraph 2, one reason why a baby cries is that it feels______.
A. sick B. upset C. sleepy D. hungry
32. What does the author think about Dr King?
A. He is strict. B. He is unkind.
C. He has the wrong idea. D. He sets a timetable for mothers.
33. The word “copper-bottomed” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _________.
A. basic B. reliable C. surprising D. interesting
34. What does the research tell us about feeding a baby on demand?
A. The baby will sleep well. B. The baby will have its brain harmed.
C. The baby will have a low blood sugar level. D. The baby will grow to be wiser by the age of 8.
35. The author supports deeding the baby_______.
A. in the night B. every four hours
C. whenever it wants food D. according to its blood sugar level
C
I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all, I was a teenager girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads, coming across me wandering through the traffic; motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.
One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something. “I’m awfully sorry,” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.
Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.
But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.
36. The girl refused to ask for help because she thought_________.
A. she might be recognized B. asking for help looked silly
C. she was normal and independent D. being found blind was embarrassing
37. After the girl got off the bus that evening, she_________.
A. began to run B. hit a person as usual
C. hit a lamppost by accident D. was caught by something
38. At the request stop that evening, the girl___________.
A. stopped a big lorry B. stopped the wrong bus
C. made no attempt to stop the bus D. was not noticed by other people
39. What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?
A. Other vehicles also stopped there. B. It was unreliable for making judgments.
C. More lorries than buses responded to the girl. D. It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus.
40. Finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping__________.
A. to find people there B. to find more buses there
C. to find the bus by herself there D. to find people more helpful there
D
Sports accounts for a growing amount of income made on the sales of commercial time by television companies. Many television companies have used sports to attract viewers from particular sections of the general public, and then they have soled audiences to advertisers.
An attraction of sports programs for the major U.S. media companies is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons—the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sports events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able to sell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming.
Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance.
Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings (收视率)are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertises. It is made up of people from the highest incomes groups in the United States, including many lawyers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis if sponsors by companies selling high-priced cars, business and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reach high-income consumers and
those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs don’t need high ratings to stay on the air.
41. Television sport programs on weekend afternoons___.
A. result in more sport events. B. get more viewers to play sports.
C. make more people interested in television. D. bring more money to the television networks.
42. Why would weekend afternoons become dead time without sport programs?
A. Because there would be few viewers.
B. Because the advertises would be off work.
C. Because television programs would go slowly.
D. Because viewers would pay less for watching television.
43. In many families, men make decisions on ___.
A. holiday trips B. sports viewing C. televisions shopping D. expensive purchasers
44. The ratings are not important for golf and tennis programs, because___.
A. their advertisers are carmakers. B. their viewers are attracted by sports.
C. their advertisers target at rich people. D. their viewers can afford expensive cars.
45. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Television ratings are determined by male viewers.
B. Rich viewers contribute most to television companies.
C. Sports are gaining importance in advertising on television.
D. Commercial advertisers are the major sponsors of sport events.

My husband received a letter a month ago from a young woman who had been his student when she was in middle school. She was writing because she wanted to thank him for having a great influence on her life.
In the letter she wrote, “You were the teacher who helped me discover my talent for math. Before you came to teach us, I had been terribly poor at math, and had never thought that I would be interested in it. To my surprise, you magically showed me the beauty of math. I guess that was the turning point of my attitude towards it. Gradually my interest in it began to grow. Thanks to your encouragement, I made continuous progress in math, and finally made up my mind to study it in the university. Today I am working as an accountant at Valley Medical Center in California. You played an important part. Thank you!”

解答精讲:
本文就rule是否有助于人们判断是非做出议论。从正反两方面议论,首先说明rule在很多方面都是有利的,然后说明因为不同的地方或个人有不同的rule导致依赖rule做决定也不是易事。
1. A 根据后文look after the environment以及反面观点的hurt 和bully可知,此处应该为kind 友善。
2. C 与第一句some things are obviously right相对应,选择obviously的近义词clearly。
3. D 由常识和下句 “…tell them the right things to do on the road”可知,规章是告诉人们对该如何做作出正确“选择”。
4. A 由常识和上文提到的avoid crashes 避免碰撞可知,此处应选择prevent accidents 防止意外。
5. C 由逻辑推断可知,如果人们遵守规章而不用考虑其他事情,他们就很“easy”形成“黑白”观。
6. D 因tell the truth与lying相对,而与always相对的应是never。A. seldom 很少 B. vital 至关重要的 C. merely 仅仅
7. A 此处表达坚持“黑白观”的人很容易惹麻烦。B. get into power 搭配不当C. get into prison 坐牢(过于严重)D. get into control 控制
8. D 由下面的例子可知,有时很难“确切地”区分正确与错误。
9. B 由but可知,应选与下文中kind相对的cruel残忍。A. awful糟糕的
10. A 表达另一种吃肉人的观点。虽然吃肉,但是依然会对动物友善。
11. D 偷东西应有“犯罪感”,即感到内疚的(guilty)。
12. B 根据上文条件:不用感到内疚和罪恶感和如果他住在一个很穷的地方可知,此处选择starving 饥饿。
13. C 由因果关系可知,“规章制度有助于我们和睦相处,因为规章制度告诉我们“对待 treat”他人的正确方式”。A. follow 跟随 B. instruct 指导;教导 D. protect 保护
14. B 由最后一句“that some schools have some regulations and others have different ones…”可知,规章制度也可能是“令人困惑的”。A. disgusting 恶心的 C. unsafe不安全的 D. unimportant 不重要的
15. C 既然不同学校的规章不同,该由谁来“评判、判决 decide”什么是正确的rule。
16. wearing 逗号前出现谓语动词appeared 因此wear为非谓语,he与wear是主动,因此选择V-ing。
17. had bought 在主格人称代词he后,显然是作谓语;又因他不是真的买下了这个学校,故应用虚拟语气,与过去事实相反,故填had bought。
18. pleased 在系动词felt后作表语,表示女孩很开心可以有个高富帅坐自己旁边。那么多位置他不选,却偏偏坐在自己身边,虽然后来发现原来是因为自己坐在最后一排而有点失望。
19. the 特指最后的那一排,或在序数词前,用定冠词。
20.If 是以第三人称的方式描述,小女孩并不知道“高富帅”的真实想法。如果他认为坐在最后一排就可以逃避视线,那么他就错了。
21. harder 作宾补依然是要用形容词,所以不作词类转换,可考虑比较级;句中a little修饰比较级harder,表示“更难一点”。
22. which 引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面整个句子。
23. for 表示某个动词或状态延续了多久,用“for +时间段”。
24. what 引导宾语从句并在从句中作do的宾语,故用连接代词。
25. them 代替前面的those glasses,作took off的宾语,用人称代词的宾格,前文提到didn’t wear them,可知,不用it 用them。
记叙文。本文主要介绍了人们相互之间常说 “Have a nice day”这一习惯。
26. B 细节理解题。由第一段最后两句可知,特别是“cares about me and wishes me well”可知选择wishes the author a good day
27. D 句意理解题。由第二段最后一句可知。routine 常规;习惯。
28. A 细节理解题。由第四段可知,特别是 “has tried to be nice to you”即strangers应该表达一种礼貌而已。
29. C 深层理解题。由第一句(特别是custom一词)和最后一段的最后两句(While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.)可知,人们常说 “Have a nice day”已成为一种习惯了。
30. A 主旨大意题。由最后一段,特别是该段的第一句(特别是custom一词)可知。
31-35 BCBDC 议论文。提出论点feeding a baby regularly不正确。然后提出论据证明我们应该禁止定时喂养孩子。
31. D 细节理解题。孩子哭,是因为低血糖引发的,而低血糖实际上就是没有吃饱,所以孩子哭的话,就是为了得到食物。这也和文章整体的意思相一致。
32. C 推理判断题。由第三段第三句I’ve never heard anything so ridiculous ( 荒谬可笑的)以及本文最后一句可知。
33. B 词义猜测题。由第四段的具体描述可知。
