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
The Atlantic Ocean is one of the oceans that separate the Old World from the New. For centuries it kept the Americans from being discovered by the people of Europe.
Many wrong ideas about the Atlantic made early sailors unwilling to sail far out into it. One idea was that it reached out to “the edge of the world.” Sailors were afraid that they might sail right off the earth. Another idea was that at the equator the ocean would be boiling hot.
The Atlantic Ocean is only half as big as the Pacific, but it is still very large. It is more than 4,000 miles (6,000km) wide where Columbus crossed it. Even at its narrowest it is about 2,000 miles (3,200km) wide.
Two things make the Atlantic Ocean rather unusual. For so large an ocean it has very few islands. Also, it is the world’s saltiest ocean.
There is so much water in the Atlantic that it is hard to imagine how much there is. But suppose no more rain fell into it and no more water was brought to it by rivers. It would take the ocean about 4,000 years to dry up. On the average the water is a little more than two miles (3.2km) deep, but in places it is much deeper. The deepest spot is near Puerto Rico. This “deep” measures 30,246 feet-almost six miles (9.6km).
One of the longest mountain ranges of the world rises from the floor of the Atlantic. This mountain range runs north and south down the middle of the ocean. The tops of a few of the mountains reach up above the sea and make islands.
Several hundred miles eastward from Florida there is a part of the ocean called the Sargasso Sea. Here the water is quiet, for there is little wind. In the days of sailing vessels(船) the crew were afraid they would be becalmed(停滞不前) here. Sometimes they were.
Today the Atlantic is a great highway. It is not, however, always a smooth and safe one. Storms sweep across it and pile up great waves. Icebergs float down from the Far North across the paths of ships.
We now have such fast ways of traveling that this big ocean seems to have grown smaller. Columbus sailed for more than two months to cross it. A fast modern steamship can make the trip in less than four days. Airplanes fly from New York to London in only eight hours and from South America to Africa in four!
21. Which world is the Old World?
A. Africa B. Europe C. Asia D. All of above
22. What caused people to be unwilling to explore the Atlantic?
A. There are no ships big enough to get across the Ocean.
B. Sailors were afraid of being lost in the Ocean.
C. The Atlantic Ocean was very unusual because it has few islands and the saltiest water.
D. Many incorrect ideas such as “the edge of the world”, “the equator with boiling hot water”, made people think the Ocean was full of danger.
23. What is the topic of the fifth paragraph?
A. How deep the water is
B. How to measure the water in the Atlantic Ocean
C. How much water the Ocean holds.
D. How rain affects the Ocean water.
24. We can learn from the text that ______.
A. the Atlantic is the largest ocean on earth
B. one of the longest mountain ranges lies in the Atlantic
C. the Atlantic has a lot of islands in it
D. sailing on the Atlantic Ocean is always quiet, smooth and safe
B
Money spent on advertising is money spent as well as any I know of. It serves directly to assist a rapid distribution of goods at reasonable prices, thereby establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at competitive prices. By drawing attention to new ideas it helps enormously to raise standards of living. By helping to increase demand it ensures an increased need for labor, and is therefore an effective way to fight unemployment. It lowers the costs of many services: without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much, the price of your television license would need to be doubled, and travel by bus or tube would cost 20 per cent more.
And perhaps most important of all, advertising provides a guarantee of reasonable value in the products and services you buy. Apart from the fact that twenty-seven Acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements. He might fool some people for a little while through misleading advertising. He will not do so for long, for mercifully the public has the good sense not to buy the inferior article more than once. If you see an article consistently advertised, it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it, and that it represents good value.
25. By the first sentence of the passage, the author means that______.
A. he is fairly familiar with the cost of advertising
B. everybody knows well that advertising is money consuming
C. advertising costs money like everything else
D. it is worthwhile to spend money on advertising
26. In the passage, which of the following is not included in the advantage of advertising?
A. Securing greater fame. B. Providing more jobs.
C. Improving living standards. D. Reducing newspaper cost.
27. According to the author, _____.
A. the consumers are often fooled by misleading advertising.
B. no advertiser dare promote a product that can't live up to the promise of his advertisement.
C. if an article is consistently advertised, it probably has good value.
D. with advertisements, you have to pay more for the goods or services you need.
28. From the passage, we can draw a conclusion that____.
A. the most importance of advertisements is to lower the cost of many services
B. the twenty-seven Acts of Parliament made misleading advertisements unable to exist
C. advertising assists a rapid distribution of goods, thereby do good to the import at good prices
D. advertising does a lot for the material benefit of the community
C
Last year, my boyfriend suggested that I should run the London marathon, and I laughed. He laughed too, but he laughed too long and too loud. That made me think. I realized that he didn’t believe that I could do it. That made me angry, and determined. Now he knows that I can!
Training wasn’t easy, but I kept going. I didn’t need special training but I did need to buy very good shoes. Each day, I went a little further. By the end of three months, I was running five days a week. Sometimes in the evenings I ran 10 km; on Sunday mornings, I sometimes ran about 30 km. I used to come home, have a shower and eat my breakfast. I felt wonderful!
On the day of the race in London, I lined up with about 30,000 other runners. The faster runners were at the front, while slower runners like me were placed further back. In that way, the professional runners and club runners were not slowed down by the amateurs.
At first, there were so many runners close together that we were almost falling over each other. We could only run very slowly but that was a good thing because it meant that we didn’t rush off too quickly. Gradually the runners spread out and there was more space. There were thousands of people watching us along the route and they cheered and clapped everyone, even the slowest runner. It was wonderful!
For the first 10 km I felt very happy and my legs felt very comfortable. However, at 15 km I got a pain in my side and running became difficult, but I kept going and the pain disappeared. At the 30 km mark, I felt extremely tired, and wanted to stop, but I kept on going. I covered another 3 km and then I began to feel better again.
By the time I reached the 35 km mark, I knew I was going to get to the end of the course. Somehow that confidence made me feel lighter and faster and it seemed as if my legs flew over the last few kilometers. I passed hundreds of slower runners, some of whom had passed me earlier, and I felt wonderful! As I came round the last bend and saw the finishing line, I could see three runners ahead of me. I raced past all of them to finish the race in just under four hours. The winner had completed the race in 2 hours and 10 minutes, but I didn’t care! I had run 42 km and completed my first marathon!
29. The writer’s boyfriend laughed at her because .
A. he thought she could run the marathon
B. he didn’t think she could run the marathon
C. he wanted her to run the marathon
D. she wanted to run the marathon
30. When the race began .
A. all the faster runners were asked to stand before those slower ones
B. many runners fell over each other
C. all the runners were asked to run slowly
D. the professional runners and club runners ran very fast
31. The hardest time for the writer was when she .
A. had run for 15 kilometers
B. got a pain in her side
C. reached the 30 kilometer mark
D. was about to reach the finish line
32. The passage suggests that it is better to start a long race slowly .
A. than to run at the same speed all the time
B. than to run too fast at the beginning
C. than to run slowly at the end
D. than to run very fast all the time
D
Wind is the great maker of waves. There are exceptions, such as the tidal(潮汐的) waves sometimes produced by earthquakes under the sea. But the waves most of us know are produced by winds blowing over the sea.
Now before constructing an imaginary life history of a typical wave, we need to know certain physical things about it. A wave has height, from trough (low point) to crest (high Point). It has length-the distance from this crest to that of the following wave. The period of the wave means the time it takes for succeeding crests to pass a fixed point. None of these things stays the same-for all depend upon the wind, upon the depth of the water and many other matters.
The water that makes up a wave does not advance with it across the sea. Each drop of water turns around in a little circle with the passing of the wave, but returns very nearly to its original position. And it is fortunate that this is so. For if the huge masses of water that make up a wave actually moved across the sea, sailing would be impossible.
If we want to find the speed of a wave, we may use the following way:
Speed = wavelength × frequency
Here, wavelength is the distance between two high points (crests), frequency means the number of cycles per second.
33. What causes waves?
A. Earthquakes and nothing else. B. Only wind.
C. Wind causes most waves. D. Wind causes some waves.
34. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. The water of a wave moves away across the sea.
B. The water of a wave remains almost at the same place.
C. The water of a wave goes with the passing of the wave.
D. The length of a wave means the distance from the top of a wave to the bottom.
35. The speed of Wave 1 is 100 cm/s, frequency 10. The frequency of Wave 2 is 300, while its speed is twice that of Wave 1. Which of the following is right?
A. The wavelengths of the two are equal.
B. The wavelength of Wave 1 is 10 times longer than that of Wave 2.
C. The wavelength of Wave 2 is longer than that of Wave 1.
D. The wavelength of Wave 1 is longer than that of Wave 2.

Urbanization
Until relatively recently, the vast majority of human beings lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago. 36_ . In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in
tiny rural (乡村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in
history--- a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.
Britain was only the beginning. 37_ .The process of urbanization--- the migration (迁移) of people from the countryside to the city--- was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and
where they live.
In 1990, fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms. 38 .
Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies. It took about ninety-five people on farms to feed five people in cities. _39 . Until modern times, those living in
cities were mainly the ruling elite(精英) and the servants, laborers and professionals who served them. Cities
survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.
Over the past two centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country. 40_ . Today, instead of needing ninety-five farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred non-farmers.
A. That kept cities very small.
B. The rest live in small towns.
C. The effects of urban living on people should be considered.
D. Soon many other industrial nations become urban societies.
E. But even 200 years ago, only a few people could live in cities.
F. Modernization drew people to the cities and made farmers more productive.
G. Modern cities have destroyed social relations and the health of human beings.

What is Math Anxiety?
Math anxiety or fear of math is actually quite common. Math anxiety is quite 41 to stage-fright. Why does someone suffer 42 ? Fear of something going wrong in front of a crowd? Fear of 43 the lines? Fear of being judged 44 ? Fear of going completely blank? Math anxiety conjures(使现出) up fear of some type. The fear that one won't be able to do the 45 or the fear that it's too hard or the fear of failure which often stems(起因于) from having a lack of 46 . For the most part, math anxiety is the 47 about doing the math right, our minds draw a 48 and we think we'll fail and of course the more frustrated and anxious our minds become, the 49 the chance for drawing blanks. Added pressure of having time limits on math tests and exams also cause the levels of anxiety to grow for many students.
Where Does Math Anxiety Come From?
Usually math anxiety stems(起源于) from 50 experiences in mathematics. Typically math phobias(恐慌症) have had math presented in such a fashion that it led to limited understanding. Unfortunately, math anxiety is often 51 poor teaching and poor experiences in math which typically leads to math 52 . Many of the students I've encountered with math anxiety have demonstrated an over reliance on procedures in math as opposed to actually understanding the math. When one tries to memorize procedures, rules and routines without much 53 , the math is quickly forgotten and 54 soon sets in. Think about your experiences with one concept — the division of fractions(分数). You probably learned about reciprocals(倒数) and inverses. In other words, ‘It’s not yours to reason why, just invert(反转) and multiply(乘)’. Well, you memorized the rule and it 55 . Why does it work? Do you really understand why it works? Did anyone ever use pizzas or math manipulative(巧妙处理的) to show you why it works? If 56 , you simply memorized the procedure and that was that. Think of math as memorizing all the procedures — 57 if you forget a few? Therefore, with this type of strategy, a good 58 will help, but, what if you don’t have a good memory. Understanding the math is critical. Once students 59 they can do the math, the whole notion of math anxiety can be overcome. Teachers and parents have an important 60 to ensure students understand the math being presented to them.
