第一节 阅读理解 (共15小题，每题2分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后各小题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项，并在答题
卡上将相应的字母编号涂黑。
A
Sometimes, using hand gestures can bring more information and be more convenient than words, especially
when you are speaking to someone with no language in common. But the same gesture can mean something quite
nasty and offensive (冒犯的) to a person from a different cultural background.
“V” Shape
In many countries, if you have your index and middle fingers pointed up in the “V” shape. It stands for
winning. However, when you make the sign, be sure to have the front of your palm facing outward instead of
inward, because showing people the back of your hand is impolite in some countries like the UK and Australia.
Finger Snap (打响指)
Snapping your thumb and middle finger over and over may mean one is trying to remind someone of
学科网（北京）股份有限公司something forgotten. While, in Latin America, snapping them means asking one to hurry up. But one thing you
should remember is that, in many cultures, snapping fingers close to someone’s face is considered to be an
offensive gesture.
Fingers Crossed
Crossing the index and middle fingers is regarded as a sign of wishing for good luck or fortune. At other times,
people cross their fingers before telling a lie, as it is believed to countervail (抵消) the bad things coming from the
lie. So it is both a positive and negative symbol.
ILY sign
This is always a nice hand gesture from American Sign Language. It combines the letters “I”, “L” and “Y” to
mean “I love you.” People use this gesture very often to show their love for their family, friends and all the other
people they love.
Counting with Fingers.
And finally, for the most useful signs — how to count the numbers from one to ten. Notice how English-
speaking countries use both hands instead of one. So the next time you go to a market in the US, remember to use
these signs to bargain.
31. On Mother’s Day, ________ can best show love to your mom instead of words.
A. B. C. D.
32. If you know how to count with fingers, you can ________.
A. tell a lie B. show your love to your family and friends.
C. bargain in a market D. ask someone to hurry up.
33. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A. thumb and middle finger B. thumb and index finger
C. thumb and palm D. thumb and pinky
34. The writer mentioned so many different hand gestures to ________.
A. tell the differences between American and Chinese cultures B. warn people to be careful when using a hand
gesture
学科网（北京）股份有限公司C. ask people not to worry about making wrong gestures D. encourage people to use hand gestures more
35. From the passage we can know that ________.
A. “V” shape sign means reminding someone of something forgotten B. fingers crossed is always considered as a
positive sign
C. ILY sign is often used to wish for good luck and fortune D. snapping fingers close to someone’s face may be
impolite
B
The idea of “time banks” was created by Yale University Professor Edgar Cahn in 1980 as a way to encourage
volunteerism (志愿服务). It’s simple enough. People who volunteer to help others in their communities (社区) get
“time dollars” or “time coins”—that can be exchanged (交换) in later life if they need help. It has taken effect in
Britain, Japan, Sweden and other countries. And so, too, in China.
The idea of “time banks” was introduced in China in the 1990s, and Shanghai was one of its first users.
However, being short of clear rules, volunteers and good management, the project finally failed. Recently, the idea
has become popular once more because of China’s rapidly aging population.
The Chinese version mostly hopes to encourage younger senior people to provide services for the older ones.
I’m happy to help them before I become too old to look after myself, said Yang Beifen, 68, a community volunteer
in Shanghai. I’ve collected over 10 coins now, and it’s comforting to know that I can use them if I need to in the
future.
The idea of “time banks” is one way to deal with the problem of an aging population. By the end of last year,
there were more than 5.2 million people aged 60 or older in Shanghai. Of these people, about 30 percent were aged
below 64 and 16 percent were over 80. Many young people are too busy to care for the elderly, so the elderly have
to help each other. The Bank of China even developed a WeChat mini program to help the elderly.
However, the needs of the elderly are a great challenge for the city. There’s a long way to go.
36. What do we know about the idea of “time banks”?
A. It’s popular only in Europe. B. It was created by a Chinese teacher.
C. It’s kind of difficult to understand. D. It’s a form of saving for the future.
37. Which is NOT the reason for “time banks” failure in China in the 1990s?
A. The management was poor. B. There were not clear rules.
C. People didn’t have much money at that time. D. There were not enough people who would like to
volunteer.
38. What is Yang Beifen’s attitude towards the idea of “time banks”?
A. She is pleased with it. B. She is worried about it.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司C. She pays no attention to it. D. She feels disappointed about it.
39. According to the last two paragraphs, ________.
A. young people should help each other B. more work should be done to help the elderly
.
C the start of the WeChat mini program wasn’t easy D. an aging population is a common problem around the
world
40. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce some volunteers. B. To introduce the history of “time banks”.
C. To give facts about “time banks” in China. D. To introduce “time banks” to more countries.
C
If you look around, you may see girls wearing hanfu or people wearing T-shirts with Chinese characters（汉
字）on the streets. A new trend（趋势）is coming in China—“Guochao”, or “China-chic”.
According to a recent report, searches connected with “Guochao” on Baidu have risen quite a lot since last
year. China-chic is happening, but what is it?

White Rabbit, whose sweet candy brings back childhood memories for many, introduced its perfume（香水）and
lip balm（唇膏）.
Now, the “Guochao” trend is moving to the next stage. No matter how it changes, there’s one thing that won’t
change. Behind this is people’s pride（自豪）in the country’s development and their growing confidence in
national culture.
41. What is “Guochao” according to the passage?
A. Chinese people’s love for Western brands. B. The growing role of China-made products in foreign
countries.
C. More and more foreigners’ attention to Chinese traditional style. D. The young’s interest in Chinese brands
学科网（北京）股份有限公司and Chinese-style products.

Ning was founded.

paintings in its new collection.
43. What can we infer according to Para 4?
A. Li-Ning has never used Western design in its sportswear.B. More and more young people will buy Li-Ning
products.
