第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第—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和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

From vibrant, culture-full cities to peaceful areas of outstanding natural beauty, the UK is a diverse destination for travelers. Here are some of the best places to visit in the UK-

Norwich, Norfolk

With 31 surviving medieval (中世纪的）churches，Norwich is an easily overlooked historical treasure. Roadside signs show this “A Fine City" and for good reason. The pubs are among the best in English, with the delightful Adam and Eve dating back to 1249. And with an annual arts festival taking place every May, its modem cultural offering makes it far more than a museum piece.

Dungeness, Kent

The only place appointed as a desert in the UK, Dungeness is completely unique. Located on the Kent coast, its windswept beaches and inland nature reserve, coupled with big skies and sea air, make it the perfect place to spend an afternoon getting the freshest air imaginable. The coastal village with the same name is something of a time channel，with a railway carrying passengers along the coast to the town of Hythe.

Manchester

Northern England’s cities often get unfairly crowded together, but there’s a distinctiveness between Leeds, Bradford, Liverpool and Manchester that makes them all worth a visit. It's the latter, though, that’s the big hitter. The vibrant Northern Quarter is great for shopping, while places such as Bridgewater Hall, Home and the Albert Hall make it the place for culture lovers. Forget complaints about the wet weather in England ； Manchester is the real deal.

Glasgow

It’s easy to overlook Glasgow, which is the charm of Edinburgh. But as Scotland’ s largest city it easily matches the capital when it comes to architecture, art and culture. The Kelvingrove Art Gallery is world-class, while the West End’s shops and bars are the perfect places to spend a relaxing afternoon. With a thriving music scene and top restaurants like the award-winning Stravaigin , it’s undoubtedly one of the country’s best destinations for a city break.

21. What can you see in Norwich, Norfolk?

A. Ancient buildings. B. Beautiful rivers.  C. Huge deserts. D. Thick forest.

22. Where can you go if you enjoy experiencing fresh sea air?

A. Norwich, Norfolk. B. Dungeness, Kent. C. Manchester. D. Glasgow.

23. What do Manchester and Glasgow have in common?

A. They both have pleasant weather.      B. They are both famous for their bars.

C. They both have convenient transportation.  D. They both attract culture lovers.

B

Elmer Alvarez was a homeless man when he found a $10K check in New Haven, Connecticut. Instead of cashing it in for himself, he looked for its rightful owner.

The owner of the large check was a real estate (房地产）agent named Roberta Hoskie. She was on a busy schedule doing business around town when her check slipped away in a busy crossing. She didn’t realize she lost it until the next day.             

They settled the day they met to hand over the check .Elmer came with a friend. It turned out he couldn’t speak English that well and asked for the help of a stranger to translate what he wanted to do. Roberta also found something about Elmer that shocked her—Elmer was homeless.

And since Roberta is in the real estate business, she realized she could send Elmer to the real estate school to be a part of her company . Not only that ,but she also rewarded him with an apartment and paid seven month’s worth of rent to help him get back on his feet. Roberta’s heart was drawn to Elmer’s story because it reminded her of her own past.

She once lived in a shelter, as a single mom with only around ＄400 to raise her son—until one day ,someone blessed her with a job that led her to her success right now. Her experience of being homeless reminded her that she could be a blessing to someone and change their life, too. A year after they met ,Roberta and Elmer started Outreach Foundation, a transitional home for homeless teenagers, providing support like church services, substance abuse awareness ,and education. 

Elmer's honesty is something that should be applauded. And in the end, he went from not having a roof over his head, to being capable of lending a hand to others who are really in need.

24.What do we know about Roberta from the text?

A. Honest and lucky.      B. Helpful and energetic.

C. Poor and sensitive.     D. Skillful and generous.

27. What does Elmer’s story tell us?

About one in five Americans who have lost weight have kept those pounds off for a long time. A new Cal Poly study powered by machine learning shows some secrets to how people lose weight and keep it off: persevering despite setbacks(挫折)，regularly looking back at what their life was like before the weight loss，and remaining focused on their health.

The study, published Feb. 9 in Obesity： The Journal of The Obesity Society, is the first large-scale one that allowed weight-loss maintainers to identify in their own words what helped them succeed. They answered open-ended questions about their motivations (in the past and present) , strategies for maintaining weight loss and the resulting lifestyle changes. Researchers then used machine learning to group responses by topic.

“One of the most impressive findings was how weight-loss maintainers described perseverance(毅力)in face setbacks,” said Suzanne Phelan, a professor in Cal Poly’ s Kinesiology and Public Health Department, who led the study. “ Weight-loss maintainers saw setbacks as part of their successful journey. Setbacks were not described as failures. They were seen as a temporary interruption in their path. Many weight-loss maintainers described getting back              on track at the next meal and measuring overall success based on goals.”             

Respondents(调查对象）offered advice to others going through their own health and weight-loss journey. Many said              perseverance was vital in overcoming the inevitable (不可避免的）setbacks. They encouraged others to take it day by day . Weight-loss maintainers also described consistently tracking food intake as a skill within a healthy lifestyle. The study also found that weight-loss maintainers remain motivated to maintain the weight loss mostly by health and appearance, as well as reflecting on past experiences.

28.How were the group responses divided?

A. By topic.   B .By age         C. By education. D. By income

29. Which of the following may weight-loss maintainers agree with?

A. Setbacks mean weight-loss failure

B. Never go off your weight-loss path.

C. Overall success is based on short-term goals. 

D. Setbacks may disturb weight loss for the time being.

30. According to respondents, what is fundamental in overcoming setbacks?

A. Being on a diet.        B. Sticking to your goals.

C. Centering on your health.      D. Reviewing your past life. 

31. In which section may the text appear in a newspaper?

A. Travel.    B. Health.   C. Entertainment.   D. Economy.

D

New Monterey Bay Aquarium-led research shows extremely warm ocean temperatures driven by climate change are the new normal. The study, published today by PLOS Climate, establishes that more than half of the ocean surface has exceeded(超过)a historical heat extreme limit on a regular basis since 2014.             

And it is these heat extremes，researchers say, that increase the risk of breakdown of marine ecosystems(海洋生态系统），including coral reefs，seagrass meadows，and kelp forests—changing their structure and function, and threatening their capacity to continue to provide life-supporting services to human communities.

Researchers conducted the study by mapping 150 years of sea surface temperatures to determine a fixed historical benchmark (基准)for marine heat extremes. The scientists then looked at how often and how much of the ocean went beyond this point. The first year in which more than half of the ocean experienced heat extremes was 2014. The trend sustained in following years, reaching 57 percent of the ocean in 2019, the last year measured in the study. Using this benchmark, just two percent of the ocean’ s surface was experiencing extremely warm temperatures at the end of the 19th century.

“These great changes we’ve recorded in the ocean are yet another piece of evidence that should be a wake-up call to act on climate change，” said Dr. Kyle Van Houtan，who headed the research team. “ We are experiencing it now and it is speeding up. Today, the majority of the ocean's surface has warmed to temperatures that only a century ago occurred as rare, once-in-50-year extreme warming events, and it indicates that we need to greatly reduce emissions(排放）from the burning of fossil fuels, which are the driver of climate change. ”

32. What caused the heat extremes according to the text?

A Water pollution.     B. The life in the ocean.  

C. Climate change.      D. Marine ecosystem

33. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “sustained” in paragraph 3?

A. changed  B. decreased  C. continued  D. arose

34. What can we know from Dr. Houtan's words?

A. It’s time to take action on climate change.

B. We should stop burning fossil fuels totally

C. It’s too early to say how climate change will affect humans^

D. No ocean's surface has warmed to extremely warm temperatures

35. What ran be the best title for the text?

A. CO2 emissions need reducing significantly 

B. Warming oceans is the driver of climate change.

C. The structure of marine ecosystems is changing 

D. Extreme heat is the new normal for the ocean.

Many people are suffering in silence from bad Internet connections，unaware that they can easily increase their Internet speed with a few simple changes to how they organize their devices(设备）.  36

Put jour router(路由器）in the right place.

We all know that the closer you are to the router, the better your Internet speed will be. Wi-Fi can't travel through thick walls or large objects.  37  . The best places to put routers are：In central locations and high up with no obstacles.

38

Wireless routers can also be easily affected by other electrical goods. To test this, run a speed test and then try switching off all electrical devices except your router and running another test to check any difference. Items like cordless telephones, bulbs, baby monitors, TVs and screens can all affect your broadband speed if they are too near the router.

Use a wireless booster (增压器）.

Wireless boosters are things that can supercharge your signal across your home. This is normally done by people in large homes or in properties with blackspots for signals. But these boosters only extend the signal you have.  39 . Your broadband supplier might send you a free booster if you can't get the signal in certain rooms. Turn off Wi-Fi devices not being used.

The more devices that are connected to your Wi-Fi, the slower the overall speed. Switching devices off can help get better connectivity. 40

A. Use wires instead of Wi-Fi.

B. They can’ t improve it.

C. Keep routers away from other devices,

D. Where you put your router can make a huge difference.

E. Here are some free ways to improve your broadband speed.

F. So try turning off the Wi-Fi reception when these items are not in use.

G. Plugging your computer into the router directly can greatly improve speed.
