第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 (共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)
A
Emily and her boyfriend had just had a fight. She felt alone and hopeless. Then she went into
the kitchen and grabbed what she needed before going back up to her room quietly. She switched on the TV and started eating…and eating…for hours, until it was all gone.
What Emily didn't know at the time was that she was suffering from an illness called
binge-eating disorder(BED)(暴饮暴食).
For years, Emily didn't tell anyone what she was doing. She felt ashamed, alone, and out of
control.Why don't famous people confess (承认)to BED, as they do to anorexia? There’s a stigma(污名)involved. “Overeating is seen as very bad, but dieting to be skinny is seen as positive and even associated with determination," says Charles Sophy , a doctor in Beverly Hills,
California.
"Some parents or friends may look at a teen with BED and think, 'Oh, a good diet and some will-power will do the trick.' But that's not true," says Dr. Ovidio Bermudez , a baby doctor at the Eating Recovery Center in Denver. "Eating disorders are real physical and mental health issues;
it's not about willpower." The focus in treating BED shouldn't be on weight, because as with all eating disorders, the behaviors with food are a symptom of something deeper.
Like most other diseases, genetics may play a big part in who gets BED and who doesn't. If
you have a close relative with an eating disorder, that means you're more likely to develop an
eating disorder of your own.
Besides, many people with BED have tried at some point or another to control it by going on a diet, but paying more attention to food doesn't help. And it might even make things worse, like it did for Carla, who's 15 now and is recovering from BED. "My parents would always tease me about my weight, so when I was 14, I went on a very restrictive diet," she says. When you can't have something, you only want it more, so every time Carla would have a bite of something that wasn't allowed on her strict diet, she would quickly lose control and binge (狂欢).
21.What does the underlined word "anorexia" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Eating too much.
B. Eating junk food.
C. Loss of the wish to eat.
D. Always eating in a hurry.
22.According to Dr. Ovidio Bermudez , people with BED_______ .
A. just need a lot of willpower
B. can recover with a good diet
C. can recover with the help of others
D. need to deal with their health problems
23.What can we learn from Carla's story?
A. BED is an incurable disease.
B. BED has something to do with genes.
C. Going on a diet won't help BED patients.
D. BED patients should pay attention to their food.
B
Play appears to be a developmental characteristic of animals with fairly sophisticated nervous systems, mainly birds and mammals. Play has been studied most extensively in monkeys and dogs. Exactly why animals play is still a matter debated in the research literature, and the reasons may not be the same for every species that plays. Determining the functions of play is difficult because the functions may be long-term, with beneficial effects not showing up until the animal’s adulthood.
Play is not without considerable costs to the individual animal. Play is usually very active, involving movement in space and, at times, noisemaking. Therefore, it results in the
loss of fuel or energy that might better be used for growth or for building up fat stores in a
young animal. Another potential cost of this activity is greater exposure to predators(掠食
动物)since play is attention-getting behavior. Greater activity also increases the risk of injury
in slipping or falling.
The benefits of play must outweigh the costs, or play would not have evolved, according to Darwin’s theory. Some of the potential benefits relate directly to the healthy development of the brain and nervous system. In one research study, two groups of young rats were raised
under different conditions. One group developed in an “enriched” environment, which
allowed the rats to interact with other rats, play with toys, and receive maze training. The
other group lived in an “impoverished” environment in individual cages in a dimly lit room
with little stimulation(刺激). At the end of the experiments, the results showed that the actual
weight of the brains of the impoverished rats was less than that of those raised in the enriched
environment (though they were fed the same diets). Other studies have shown that greater
stimulation not only affects the size of the brain but also increases the number of connections
between the nerve cells. Thus, active play may provide necessary stimulation to the growth
of synaptic connections in the brain, especially the cerebellum, which is responsible for
motor functioning and movements.
24.Which of the following presents a particular challenge to researches who study play
behavior in animals?
A.The delay between activities and the benefits the animals gets from them.
B.The difficulty in determining which animal species play and which do not.
C.The fact that for most animals, there is no clear change from youth to full adulthood.
D.The lack of research on the play behavior of animals other than dogs and monkeys.
25. According to paragraph 3, each of the following is a cost to animals that engage in play
EXCEPT _______ ?
A.Exposure to predators
B. A buildup of fat stores
C. A loss of fuel that could be used for growth.
D. Risk of injury from slipping or falling.
26. Why does the author include the comment “though they were fed the same diets”
A. To show why rats living in impoverished environments need less food than those living in
enriched environments.
B. To get rid of the possibility that differences in diet were responsibly for observed
differences in brain weight.
C. To emphasize the point that rats fed the same diet only the amount of food needed to keep
them alive.
D. To suggest that rats fed the same diet have smaller brains than those fed a varied food.
C
By the eighteenth century, Britain was experiencing a severe shortage of energy. Because of the growth of population, most of the great forests of medieval Britain had long ago been replaced by fields of grain and hay. Wood was in ever-shorter supply, yet it remained tremendously important. It served as the primary source of heat for all homes and industries and as a basic raw material.
As this early energy crisis grew worse, Britain looked toward its abundant and widely scattered reserves of coal as an alternative to its vanishing wood. Coal was first used in Britain in the late Middle Ages as a source of heat. By 1640 most homes in London were heated with it, and it also provided heat for making beer, glass, soap, and other products. Coal was not used, however, to produce mechanical energy or to power machinery. It was there that coal’s potential was enormous.
As more coal was produced, mines were dug deeper and deeper and were constantly filling with water. Mechanical pumps, usually powered by hundreds of horses walking in circles at the surface, had to be installed. Such power was expensive and bothersome. In an attempt to overcome these disadvantages, Thomas Savery in 1698 and Thomas Newcomen in 1705 invented the first primitive steam engines. Both engines were extremely inefficient. Both burned coal to produce steam, which was then used to operate a pump. However, by the early 1770s, many of the Savery engines and hundreds of the Newcomen engines were operating successfully, though inefficiently, in English and Scottish mines.
In the early 1760s, a gifted young Scot named James Watt was drawn to a critical study of the steam engine. Watt was employed at the time by the University of Glasgow as a skilled crafts worker making scientific instruments. In 1763, Watt was called on to repair a Newcomen engine being used in a physics course. After a series of observations, Watt saw that the Newcomen’s waste of energy could be reduced by adding a separate condenser(电容器). This splendid invention, patented in 1769, greatly increased the efficiency of the steam engine. The steam engine of Watt and his followers was the technological advance that gave people, at least for a while, unlimited power and allowed the invention and use of all kinds of power equipment.
The steam engine was quickly put to use in several industries in Britain. It drained mines and made possible the production of ever more coal to feed steam engines elsewhere.
27. Why are “beer, glass, soap, and other products”mentioned in the discussion of Britain’s
energy?
A.To help explain why the energy crisis was severe.
B.To show that despite the energy crisis, as early as 1640, London homes were advanced
and well supplied.
C.To emphasize that after 1640, British homes required energy for more than heat.
D.To indicate that coal had been used for the production of certain products before the
eighteenth century.
28.According to paragraph 3, all of the following are ways in which the Savery and Newcomen
engines were similar EXCEPT ____________.
A.Both became relatively inexpensive after the 1770s.
B.Both produced steam by burning coal.
C. Both were used to operate pumps.
D. Both were very inefficient.
29. What was James Watt’s major achievement?
A.He was able to apply his understanding of physics to invent a variety of scientific
instruments and tools for skilled crafts worker.
B.He taught university physics courses to outstanding students whose observations led to
many patented inventions.
C.He improved the efficiency of Newcomen’s engine by preventing energy from being
lost.
D.He redesigned Newcomen’s engine so that it no longer needed a separate condenser.
30. According to the passage, which of the following is true about the development of steam
power?
A.The steam engine’s basic technology can be traced back to medieval Britain when steam
powered machinery was being tried in farming activities.
B.Although Russia and Britain developed steam-powered technology at the same time,
Britain was first to try it in a large-scale industry due to a greater need for iron.
C.Steam-power technology was largely the result of improvements developed to increase the
supply of coal as a primary source of energy.
D.Adaptations to steam engines required for their use in cotton-spinning mills led to radical
developments in machinery used in the iron industry.

No matter how we laugh, laughter is a necessary part of a healthy, happy life. We can easily recognize laughter, but what exactly is it?
31 Laughter is a series of movements of the muscles in the face and the respiratory(呼吸的)system. These movements also cause the diaphragm(隔膜),abdomen(腹部), heart, lungs, and liver to rub and press each other during a hearty laugh. 32 These movements also cause the heart to beat faster and increase the flow of blood to the brain. When the laughter stops, the heart slows down and the muscles relax. The results are a feeling of pleasure and well-being.
33 Studies at Loma Linda University School of Medicine in California show that laughter may help our white blood cells make antibodies(抗体)to fight infection and disease.
34 According to some psychologists, laughter shows that we are not afraid or worried. Think of a parent who takes a young child into a swimming pool. At first, the child probably doesn’t laugh and may even cry or feel frightened. However, once the child is sure that the parent will not let go, he or she begins to laugh and enjoy the water.
If we laugh to show that we are not afraid or worried, then why do some people laugh when they are nervous or afraid? 35 People laugh then because they want to pretend to be in control. Laughter can help us through a difficult time. It helps us cope and deal with problems. Research has shown that laughter can even help people handle pain.
Laughter, then, measures our ability to handle the world around us. If we can laugh when we are afraid, we will be able to survive and sure of ourselves, then we can laugh and enjoy life.
A. That is easy to explain.
B. These parts of the body are exercising.
C. Laughter is also a psychological expression.
D. First of all, laughter is a function of the body.
E. There is an old saying that goes “Laughter is the best medicine.”
F. People give a loud, hearty laugh which is sometimes called a “belly”laugh.
G. It is also possible that laughter supports our bodies’ defenses against disease.

第二节 概要写作(共1小题;满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Beijing enjoyed better air quality during the week-long Spring Festival holiday compared to last year thanks to wind and fewer fireworks, the capital environment authority said on Monday. From Feb.7 to 13, the capital saw three days with good air quality and a large reduction in the average reading of PM2.5, which decreased by 16 percent from the same period in 2015, according to the Beijing Municipal Environment Protection Bureau. PM2.5 refers to particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter that is hazardous to human health. Its average reading during the holiday was 98 micrograms per cubic meter, down from 117 in 2015. Residents also saw three days when pollution reached medium and heavy levels, when it is suggested that seniors and children stay indoors.
“More days with better weather to disperse(散开)air pollutants and fewer fireworks were the major contributors to the improvement in air quality,” Sun Feng, senior engineer in air quality monitoring of the Beijing Municipal Environment Monitoring Center, said on Monday. It’s estimated that sales of fireworks in Beijing saw a year-on-year reduction of 20 to 30 percent, the bureau said. Fewer fireworks did alleviate(缓和)air pollution during the week, but they were still a prominent(显著的)contributor to soaring pollution on the eve and day of the Spring Festival(Feb.8), the bureau said.
On the festival eve, Beijing saw PM2.5 readings climb quickly from a “good”level of less than 100 at 7pm on Feb.7 to 1,000---the most hazardous level---before 6am on Feb.8, the municipal environment watchdog said.
Most cities experienced the same situation, The Ministry of Environment Protection said. Among the 338 cities with regular air quality monitoring, 271 saw air quality failing to reach the national safety level from the eve to the morning of the Spring Festival, 54 more than in 2015,said Hu Kemei, deputy head of the pollution monitoring department under the ministry. Among the polluted cities, residents in 66 cities saw the pollution index reach the highest level. Hu said fireworks were a major contributor to the soaring. PM2.5 readings. Setting off fireworks to embrace the Spring Festival is a tradition for Chinese. There have been debates for years on whether to forbid fireworks, and many cities have issued restrictions. “I noticed the choking air when setting off fireworks, but it’s also the smell of the holiday, reminding me of a new year’s arrival,” said Zhang Dong, a 28-year-old from Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province. “I can bear the temporary jump in pollution on that special night.”

Dear Fellow Students,
With the popularity of private cars and taxis, more traffic jams are caused, and even worse, the air is getting awful. Facing this serious problem, I strongly advocate taking a bus.
Obviously, taking buses has many advantages. In terms of environmental protection, it reduces waste-gas emission. Besides, it helps cut down energy consumption, eases traffic jams, and in turn improves the air quality. Thus we can surely create a cleaner world for ourselves and our next generations.
Let’s just work together. Your cooperation would be much appreciated.
Yours,
Li Hua
