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
I was born in the city of York, in England, in 1632. My father was a man of some wealth, able to give me a good home and send me to school. It was his wish that I should be a lawyer but my head began to be filled very early with thoughts of travel, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. One day, being at Hull, I met one of my friends who was about to sail for London in his father’s ship, and he invited me to go with him. Without telling my father, I went on board.
On the way to London, our ship was destroyed by a storm, and we almost lost our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a large ship which did business with countries on the coast of Africa. He offered me a chance to go with him, which I gladly accepted.
A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed (颠簸) about for many days, until we did not know where we were. Suddenly we hit a bank of sand, and the sea broke over the ship in such a way that we could not hope to have her hold many moments without breaking into pieces. So we used a boat instead. After we had been driven four or five miles, a mountainous wave hit us so hard that it overturned the boat at once. I swam well but the waves were so strong that I was pushed against a rock with such force, and left unconscious. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and, running forward, got to the mainland safely. I never regretted my decisions.
21. What did the author want to do most when he was young?
A. To visit Africa.
B. To practice law.
C. To sail the seas.
D. To move to London.
22. In the last paragraph, the author mainly shows ___________.
A. what he went through at sea
B. what he did on the ship
C. how he became a man of wealth
D. how he got to know a ship owner
23. What can we learn about the author?
A. He could not swim at all.
B. He made his father very proud.
C. He did business with African countries.
D. He was not afraid of taking risks.
B
Is it your dream to fly and to work in space? Do you want to be a NASA astronaut? Like many jobs, the first thing would be to fill out the application. A record-breaking 18,300 people filled out applications recently when NASA announced it was filling its 2017 Astronaut Candidate program, but out those 18,300 applicants, just 8 to 14 will be hired by the U.S. space agency.
It will take NASA 18 months to decide who will be in the new class of astronauts. NASA will review all of the files, which will later go to its current team of astronauts, to make sure th ey meet the basic qualifications.
The first requirement is that the applicants must be U.S. citizens. They need a college degree in engineering, biological science, physical science, computer science, or mathematics. They also need at least three years of experience in a similar field or at least 1,000 hours as a jet airline pilot.
There are requirements to pass a physical test. And then there are personality tests as well. What kinds of personality qualities is NASA looking for in an astronaut? NASA’s Selection Manager Anne Romer said, “I think it is leadership, teamwork, the ability to not only work on a team, lead a team, but also follow, be a follower on a team that matters. Communication certainly plays a role so it’s some pretty common skills that I think translate into even other professions.”
About 120 applicants will be invited to the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, for a first round of interviews, about half of whom will go back for a second round. Once selected, they must complete two years of training in everything about spaceflight---things like learning about all the systems used by NASA, walking in space and Russian language training. Until the U.S. has a working vehicle to launch into space, NASA still depends on Russia to get astronauts into space.
24. What is the percentage of employment among the applicants?
A. About half of them. B. About 8 to 14.
C. About 120. D. Less than 0.08 percent.
25. Which do you think is the most important personality quality according to NASA’s Selection Manager?
A. Devotion. B. Communication. C. Team spirit. D. Perseverance.
26. Which is NOT the basic requirement the applicants have to meet?
A. Related experience.
B. Speaking Russian fluently.
C. A college degree in required areas.
D. Passing physical and personality tests.
27. What may be the best title for this text?
A. NASA Astronaut Candidate Program
B. NASA Welcomes its Most Applicants ever
C. What It Takes to Be a NASA Astronaut
D. What an Astronaut should Train in
C
One thing the tour books don’t tell you about London is that 2,000 of its residents are foxes. They ran away from the city about centuries ago after developers and pollution moved in. But now that the environment is cleaner, the foxes hav e come home.
“The number and variety of wild animals in urban areas is increasing,” says Corner Jones. A survey of the wildlife in New York’s Central Park last year counted 14 kinds of animals. A similar survey carried out in the 1890’s counted only five kinds.
Several changes have brought wild animals to the cities. First, the air and water quality in many cities have improved as a result of the 1970s pollution-control efforts. Meanwhile, rural areas have been built up, and many animals have gone to the area outside the centre of a city. In addition, urban wildlife refuges (避难处) have been created. The Greater London Council last year spent $ 750, 000 buying land and building 10 permanent wildlife refuges in the city.
As a result, many birds are now living in the city. By 1970 the birds had died out east of the Mississippi because the DDT had made their eggs too thin to support life. That year, scientist Tom Cade of Cornell University began raising the birds for release in cities, for cities offered enough food.
Cities can attract wild animals without turning them harmful. The key is to create habitats where they are able to live happily. Such habitats can even be useful. In San Francisco, the local government is testing different kinds of rainwater control basins to see not only which ones keep the cleanest water but which will attract the most birds.
28. The first paragraph suggests that ________.
A. London is a city of fox
B. the environment is important for wildlife
C. foxes are highly adaptable to the environment
D. tour books are not always a reliable source of information
29. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. Londoners are happy to see wild animals return to their city
B. Londoners are putting more and more wild animals into their zoos
C. Londoners are trying to move wild animals back to the countryside
D. Londoners have welcomed the wild birds, but found foxes a problem
30. Which of the following is NOT a reason why wildlife is returning to the cities?
A. There is plenty of food for wildlife in the city.
B. Air and water quality has improved in the cities.
C. Wildlife enjoys being watched and fed in the cities.
D. More and more special living areas have been built for the wildlife.
31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Wild animals living in zoos.
B. 2,000 foxes returning to London.
C. A survey of wildlife in New York.
D. Wildlife returning to some larger cities.
D
Something I enjoy doing most in my leisure time is going to the cinema to watch a great film. It’s two hours of relaxation and escapism from real life. But when I get relaxed in my seat to enjoy the film and popcorn, I’m often irritated by seeing someone next to me texting on their mobile phone or worse still, talking to someone.
It’s no surprise that a proposal by a US cinema chain to let people use their phones during some film screenings was met with such anger, that the company had to take back the idea. People said it was ‘the worst idea ever’! Surely, going to watch the latest film is just that – watching not multi-screening. I am certainly distracted by the click-click on someone’s mobile keyboard as they text and the light of the bright small phone screen – why aren’t they concentrating on the big screen?!
However, it is convenient to watch streaming films and cheap DVDs at home. Cinemas are struggling to keep their customers. Some places now offer comfortable seats with snacks and drinks, so maybe trying to attract a younger audience by allowing the use of mobile phones is the way forward? A survey in 2012 found that a majority of 18-to-34-year-olds believed using social media while watching a movie would add to their experience.
However, not every young person wants to multi-task at the movies. Many of us still get annoyed by the theatre staff who appear not to do anything about it. Of course, we could ask people to turn their phones off. But as Adam Aron, head of AMC Entertainment, said in Variety magazine, “when you tell a 22-year-old to turn off the phone, don’t ruin the movie, they hear ‘please cut off your left arm above the elbow’.” Clearly this is not what I would like to see but if you want to use your mobile phone in the cinema that I’m at, please don’t sit next to me! What do you think is the right thing to do?
32. The underline word “irritated” in Paragraph 1 means _________.
A. annoyed B. terrified C. depressed D. embarrassed
33. Which of the following is True of the US cinema chain’s original advice?
A. The advice was carried out smoothly.
B. They forbade people to use the phone.
C. They permitted people to use the phone.
D. The advice was very popular with people.
34. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?
A. People prefer to watch films and DVD at home.
B. Young people use their social media frequently.
C. The cinema needn’t worry about their customers.
D. Sending messages is the best experience for young people.
35. What is the author’s attitude towards multi-task at the movies?
A. Sympathy. B. Enthusiasm. C. Disapproval. D. Encouragement.

The Effects of Stress
There is a famous expression in English: “Stop the world, I want to get off!” This expression refers to a feeling of panic, or stress, that makes a person want to stop whatever they are doing, try to relax, and become calm again. 36 It is one of the most common causes of health problems in modern life. Too much stress results in physical, emotional, and mental health problems.
There are a number of physical effects of stress. 37 It can increase the pulse rate, make the heart miss beats, and can cause high blood pressure. Stress can affect the respiratory system. It can lead to asthma. It can cause a person to breathe too fast, resulting in a loss of important carbon dioxide. Stress can affect the stomach. 38 These are only a few examples of the wide range of illnesses and symptoms resulting from stress.
Emotions are also easily affected by stress. People suffering from stress often feel anxious. They may have panic attacks. They may feel tired all the time. When people are under stress, they often overreact to little problems. For example, a normally gentle parent under a lot of stress at work may yell at a child for dropping a glass of juice. 39
Long-term stress can lead to a variety of serious mental illnesses. Depression, an extreme feeling of sadness and hopelessness, can be the result of continued and increasing stress. Alcoholism and other addictions often develop as a result of overuse of alcohol or drugs to try to relieve stress. If stress is allowed to continue, then one's mental health is put at risk. 40
A. Stress can affect the heart.
B. “Stress” means pressure or tension.
C. So stop the world and rest for a while.
D. Stress can make people angry, moody or nervous.
E. It is obvious that stress can cause physical problems.
F. It can cause stomach aches and problems digesting food.
G. Eating disorders are sometimes caused by stress and are often made worse by stress.

One Possible Version：
A recent survey shows most students often communicate with their parents, but there are still some who think it embarrassing to share their ideas with them.
Actually everyone should attach importance to family communication. It can strengthen the bond of the whole family and bridge the gap between children and parents. Besides, sharing your personal problems and emotions will greatly help reduce the pressure on you and build up your confidence.
As for my family, we have a special dinner together every Saturday evening, over which everyone present takes turns to share one problem while the others try to suggest solutions. In this way the whole family can enjoy every single bit of life. I think my family will stick to the tradition forever.
