第二部分 阅读(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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Love hiking but don’t want to have a heavy backpack for days on end? We’ve found four great walks around
Australia.
● Three Capes Walk
Where: Tasmania
Length: Three days
The pièce de résistance of a hike in this remote southeast corner of Tasmania has to be a flight over, or
cruise(航行) underneath, Cape Pillar–the tallest sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere. Here you’ll find 300-metre-
high sea columns rising from the ocean. The equally impressive Cape Raoul – only accessible by hikers – will also
give you a taste of the dramatic, raw beauty to come.
● Great Ocean Walk
Where: Victoria
Length: Three days
The 243-kilometre long Great Ocean Road is an Australian National Heritage – listed area famed for its surf
beaches and the Twelve Apostles – limestone(石灰岩) stacks rising out of the Southern Ocean. It takes more than a
week to walk the full length, but this hike ensures you see the best bits over three days.
● Larapinta Trail &Red Center Walk
Where: Northern Territory
Length: Nine daysIf you haven’t experienced the beating heart of Australia, this is the way to do it. Walk part of the Larapinta
Trail, a 231-kilometre path that follows the rocky spine of the West MacDonnell Ranges from Alice Springs
Telegraph Station to Mount Sonder.
● Light to Light Walk
Where: New South Wales
Length: Four days
The Sapphire Coast was named after a gem because of its deep blue sparkling waters. A hike here takes you
deep into this dramatic landscape from striking 320-million-year old red rocky outcrops to coastal forests. Glide
along its dynamic waters on a cruise to take in the birdlife, and if you’re lucky, you might even spot a dolphin or,
from May to November, a migrating whale.
21.What can you appreciate in “Three Capes Walk”?
A.The Twelve Apostles. B.The Larapinta Trail.
C.Cape Pillar. D.The Sapphire Coast.
22.What can you do while hiking in New South Wales?
A.Appreciate the birdlife along the dynamic waters.
B.See limestone stacks rising out of the Southern Ocean.
C.Spot a dolphin or a migrating whale from March to November.
D.Walk a 231-kilometre path to experience the beating heart of Australia.
23.Which of the following has the longest length of a visit for the tourists?
A.Victoria. B.Northern Territory. C.New South Wales. D.Tasmania.
B
“You’re fired!”
Andrew wasn’t joking. At that moment, the high school junior wanted his personal care attendant, Christy, out
of his life forever. He didn’t want her to tell him that he didn’t need help using the computer and he could write his
own term papers. Enough already.
“You’re fired!” He said it again for extra emphasis. Christy didn’t draw back. She needed this job. Hurricane
Katrina had damaged her house. But the retired PE teacher wasn’t discouraged. “I’m a tough nut, ”she says today.
“You know, I’ve taught middle schools.”
When Andrew was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome (阿斯伯格综合征), at age eight, people told his
mom, Cindy, to “get him on the list” for an attendant to provide after- school care. However, it was eight years
before they were matched with Christy. Meanwhile, Andrew’s family did their best to shelter him from life’shardships. “I worried about him,” Cindy says. “I tended to handle a lot.”
There was a lot to worry about. Could Andrew graduate from high school? Live independently? Cindy would
do anything for her son. Christy saw the problem right away. “Andrew wouldn’t take a step without his mother’s
permission,” Christy remembers. “You have to let him fail,” she told the family. “It’s the only way he’s going to
learn. To be able to do things on his own.”
No longer would Cindy write Andrew’s papers for him. Christy wouldn’t be helping him with homework
either. He complained. Loudly at times. But then things began to change. Andrew would come home from school
and start on his homework. He saw that Christy really was there for him. She wouldn’t do his papers for him. But
she showed him how to get organized. Once his work was done, Christy offered freedom. She’d take him out to eat
his favorite food, sushi.
One step at a time, Andrew gained independence. He graduated from high school and entered college. Last
spring Andrew moved into his own apartment. At 25, he says life has never been better.
24.What might lead to Andrew’s desire to fire Christy?
A.His tiredness of learning.
B.His being rid of dependence.
C.Her longing for others’ respect.
D.Her prejudice on unhealthy people.
25.What was Cristy’s first response to Andrew’s threat?
A.She felt huge pressure.
B.She begged to stay
C.She reflected deeply.
D.She stayed calm.
26.What can we infer about the purpose of Christy’s insisting on her approach?
A.To relieve the mother’s concerns.
B.To improve Andrew’s confidence.
C.To remove Andrew’s rooted habits.
D.To cure Andrew’s existing disease.
27.Which of the following best describes Christy as a care attendant?
A.Demanding but patient.
B.Serious and outgoing.
C.Caring and energetic.D.Stubborn but cautious.
C
Your brain isn’t necessarily the same age as the rest of you. Now, it may be possible to predict how quickly a
person’s brain will age throughout life based on tests taken when they are 3 years old. A person’s biological age
may be a better indicator of their health than their chronological age (实际年龄). Brain age can be measured using
brain scans and machine learning to determine if a person’s brain looks older or younger than the average healthy
brain for people of the same age.
To find out if brain age might reveal anything about a person’s health in midlife. Maxwell Elliott at Duke
University in North Carolina and his colleagues assessed the brains of 869 adults in New Zealand who have
undergone regular medical and cognitive testing since they were 3 years old. When the volunteers, all aged between
43 and 46, underwent MRI brain scans, the team found that their brain ages ranged from 23 to 71. Those with older
brain ages performed worse on tests of cognition. memory and IQ. The researchers also measured things like
cholesterol and blood sugar levels to estimate the biological age of the volunteers'bodies.
James Cole at King’s College London cautions that it will be difficult to make predictions based on a 3-year-
old’s test results. “Acceleration or delay could be positive or negative.” says Cole. “If a 60-year-old has a brain that
looks 70, that’s bad, but if a 3-year-old has a brain that looks 5, that might be a good thing.” The team also asked
other researchers to guess how old the volunteers were based on photos of their faces. Again, the responses varied
hugely with estimates coming in 20 years above and below their actual age. Those who looked older also had older
brain ages. “It suggests that the outward signs of ageing are reflected by the internal signs of ageing,” says Cole.
“That doesn’t mean that all older-looking individuals will be on their way to dementia (痴呆).” says Elliott.
We don’t yet have a way to treat brain ageing, but given the known benefits to the brain of healthy eating and
exercise, these aren’t a bad place to start.
28.Why did Max Elliott conduct the experiment?
A.To test whether brain age might indicate a person’s health in midlife.
B.To find out if chronological age shows a person’s health in midlife.
C.To test whether a person’s brain age is younger than his chronological age.
D.To find out whether a person’s chronological age influences his brain age.
29.What can we learn about Maxwell Elliott’s experiment?
A.The 869 volunteers, all aged between 43 and 46. are all from North Carolina.
B.The volunteers have never experienced any regular medical or cognitive testing.
C.Those with older brain ages performed worse than those with younger ones.D.The volunteer’s brain ages ranged from 43 and 46 by MRI scans.
30.Which of the following would James Cole probably agree with?
A.It has been possible to make precise predictions based on 3-year-old’s test results.
B.People’s acceleration or delay of brain ageing must be one hundred percent negative.
C.The internal signs of ageing can reflect the outward signs of ageing.
D.It is not a good thing for a 3-year-old with a brain that looks 5.
31.What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?
A.It makes no sense to worry about such prediction too much.
B.It is urgent to treat brain ageing at once for it is a fatal disease.
C.Researchers are at a loss what to do with brain ageing.
D.Researchers have found an effective way to treat brain ageing.

Antarctica is known for being a vast land of ice and snow, a place too cold for most life. Despite this, the
continent is slowly starting to turn warm. According to the Guardian, the Antarctic has registered a new high
temperature for the first time on record, prompting fears of climate instability in the world’s iciest place.
On Feb 9, Brazilian researchers at Seymour Island reported a temperature of 20.75℃ on the icy continent of
Antarctica. It was almost a full degree higher than the previous record of 19.8℃, taken on Signy Island (西格尼岛)
in January 1982.
This record-breaking reading was taken at a monitoring station in the northern part of Antarctica. According to
Brazilian soil scientist Carlos Schaefer, the temperature was documented during a 20-year-long research project.
The focus of this project is to study the effect that climate change has on the permafrost (永久冻土) within the
region. Permafrost is soil that stays frozen for at least two years. Although this is a first record high for Antarctica,
Schaefer stressed that “We can’t use this to anticipate climatic changes in the future. It’s simply a signal that
something different is happening in that area.”
But in fact, the last high temperature reading was in the 19℃ range. These higher temperatures can cause ice
and glaciers in Antarctic regions to melt. The Antarctic peninsula (半岛)--the long finger of land that stretches
towards Argentina--is most dramatically affected. Scientists saw glaciers that have retreated by more than 100
meters in Discovery Bay where the snow melted in little more than a week, leaving dark exposed rock. This melted
ice leads to a rise in sea levels that can threaten the safety of coastal areas. It’s believed to be behind an alarming
decline of more than 50 percent in chinstrap penguin (帽带企鹅) colonies, which are dependent on sea ice.
Like American writer Ernest Hemingway once said, “The Earth is a fine place and worth fighting for.” Weshould do everything we can to help save our planet. Otherwise, it may become too hot for us to fix.
32.What did Brazilian researchers report on Feb 9?
A.Seymour Island is the warmest region in the Antarctic.
B.Antarctica hit a record high temperature of 20.75℃.
C.The average temperature of Antarctica ranges from 19.8℃ to 20.75℃.
D.Antarctica’s new record temperature is a full degree higher than the previous decade.
33.What’s the main purpose of the 20-year-long research project?
A.To predict possible climatic change in the future.
B.To monitor Antarctica’s contributions to world climate change.
C.To explain why the permafrost may cause glaciers to melt.
D.To examine how the permafrost is influenced by climate change.
34.What does the underlined word “retreated” probably mean?
A.moved backward. B.increased in size.
C.covered a certain area. D.stretched in an opposite direction.
35.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.The Earth will be hotter and hotter.
B.The high temperature can cause ice in Antarctica melt.
C.People should spare no effort to protect the earth and the environment.
D.A rise in sea levels can threaten the safety of coastal areas.

Benefits of sharing jokes as a family
A well-chosen joke can have a big impact when speaking to a crowd or attempting to redirect a tense meeting.
36 Our family started regularly enjoying jokes when my son began sharing the “Joke of the Day” read On the
morning announcements his school with us at dinner. A burst of laughter prevents us from complaining about the
menu. 37 The benefits of sharing jokes definitely go beyond mealtime conversation matter, though. Here
are some reasons to make joking around a regular family habit:
38 Knowing a good joke can help a kid connect with other kids at the cafeteria table or start a
conversation on the school bus. Enjoying jokes and practicing the art of humorous delivery in the safety of their
home can give kids tools for social situations, especially if this is an area of difficulty.
Jokes improve language skills. 39 Consider the learning potential in these samples fromFunology.com: “What do you call a cow that eats your grass? A lawn mower.” “When is a door not a door? When
it’s ajar (半开着).”
Jokes encourage reading and learning. Many parents and teachers report that joke books help motivate their
reluctant or struggling readers to read more. Since jokes, by design, are for sharing, reading them aloud is
particularly good practice for kids who struggle with reading fluently. 40 If your child needs help
remembering a difficult concept, a joke might do it. For instance, try another joke from Funology.com: “Two atoms
are playing together when on tells the other, ‘I lost an electron.’ The second atom asks, ‘Are you sure?’ The first
atom replies ‘I’m positive!’”
A.Jokes help kids build social relationships.
B.Jokes aren’t just for the public stage, though.
C.Humor can even help a person deal with mood disorders.
D.Studies show humor can make information more memorable, too.
E.Jokes are quick lessons about sounds in words and word meanings.
F.Humor encourages family connection and can help ease kids’ anxiety.
G.Also, it’s been a good chance to explain jokes he didn’t quite understand.
