第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分 35 分)

第一节 (共 10 个小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 25 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。

A

After a difficult academic year, we all deserve a wonderful summer holiday, a time for relaxation and celebration. Of course, a big part of any celebration involves food. Many of my holidays, birthdays, days out and good memories are defined by the amazing food that was involved. The sunny weather and long days bring with it a whole selection of meals, recipes and snacks to be enjoyed.

The first thing that summer calls for is a barbecue. Although I don’t have a barbecue at home, a portable barbecue will do the trick and this means that you can enjoy a slightly charred burger wherever you are. Picnics are also a must for summer and I often find they are the most fun when treated like a potluck, with each person bringing along their personal favourites. Cocktail sausages and mini scotch eggs are always my guilty pleasures. As someone from the Suffolk coast, fish and chips are essential. It truly feels like summer when I sit on the beach with chips wrapped in paper on my lap. The coast is the best place to get a seafood treat with fish being caught fresh daily. Besides, you can finish your day with a walk along the beach. Finally, we can’t forget the drinks. Pimms in the sun, well balanced by lemonade and summer fruits, is always delicious. And I find that nothing reminds me more of post-exam celebrations than a pint in a beer garden.

The thing about summer food is that it often becomes food associated with summer memories. Picnics barbecues, and fish and chips on the beach are more than just delicious meals — they are a way to socialise and have fun with friends and family. Part of the fun comes from lazing in the sun afterwards, swimming in the sea, and playing heartily, which is why our food memories are so powerful.

1. According to the author, what makes a picnic most enjoyable?

A. Gathering with friends. B. Sharing delicious foods.

C. Enjoying seafood treats. D. Introducing different recipes.

2. Which of the following can best explain the underlined word “portable” in paragraph 2?

A. Multifunctional. B. Automatic.

C. Easy to carry. D. Simple to operate.

3. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Foods: the trick for a celebration

B. My celebration of summer holidays

C. My summer memories on the beach

D. A taste of sun: foods for my summer

4. In which part of a newspaper can you most probably read the text?

A. Travel and holiday. B. Cuisine and life.

C. Sports and fitness. D. Education and schooling.

B

When it comes to cancer, patients are often heard saying, “Oh, it’s all in my genes. What can I do?” However, a new study shows that eating right, exercising and reducing stress have a powerful impact on gene expression.

Dean Ornish, founder and president of the Preventive Medicine Research Institute, reports in Proceedings of the National A cademy of Sciences that they found the activity of more than 500 genes in the tissues of 30 subjects with low-risk thyroid (甲状腺) cancer changed after they began exercising regularly and eating diets heavy in fruit, vegetables and whole grain and low in red meat and fats.

In addition, they walked or worked out at least 30 minutes six days a week, did an hour of daily stress-reducing yoga-type exercise, such as stretching and breathing, and participated in one-hour weekly group support sessions.

The subjects had all chosen to skip conventional treatment in favor of a “watchful waiting” approach. The researchers say it is too early to tell whether the lifestyle changes kept the cancer cells in check. But they say the study indicates that exercising, improving nutrition and limiting stress may make great differences in the behavior of genes. Among them: some tumor suppressors (肿瘤抑制基因) became more active, while certain disease-promoting ones were down-regulated or switched off.

“We are always looking for drugs that can do this. It is unexpected that lifestyle changes can have as much effect as the most powerful drugs available to us now and be combined with drug treatment — with fewer side effects. Perhaps the most surprising element is that these benefits can occur so quickly that you don’t have to wait years to see them.” said Christopher Haqq, a medical expert.

5. Why does the writer mention the patients’ words in paragraph 1?

A. To introduce a study. B. To draw a conclusion.

C. To provide an example. D. To support an argument.

6. How did the lifestyle changes affect the 30 subjects?

A. Their stress was greatly limited.

B. The beneficial genes were more active.

C. Their cancer was completely under control.

D The disease-promoting genes were removed.

7. What does Haqq mainly talk about in the last paragraph?

A. The prospect of this study.

B. The popularity of drug treatment.

C. The advantages of lifestyle changes.

D. The application of the new approach.

C

This has been a year full of natural disasters, like hurricanes, wildfires and floods. Behind many of them, though, is an unfolding event that shows no sign of stopping: climate change. Here we meet some students who have been using science to help people deal with the effects of the changing climate. Their research places them among 30 finalists at the 10th Broadcom MASTERS, a research program open to middle-school investigators.

Ryan Honary, a 12-year-old student in California, has personal experience with wildfires. One day, he was with his father at a tennis tournament when he saw wildfires raging across his home state on TV. “I called my mom and asked if she was okay.” Ryan recalls. Once he knew that she was, he asked his dad why wildfires got out of control so often. “We’re planning to send people to Mars but we can’t detect wildfires,” Ryan says.

That’s when Ryan decided to create a way to detect wildfires early — before they get out of control. He linked together a series of mini computers that had sensors to detect smoke. When smoke was detected, data was transferred wirelessly to another computer, which served as a mini meteorological(气象的) station.

Ryan brought his entire system to a park and tested it by holding the flame from a lighter in front of each sensor. When they sensed a fire, they informed the detector. It then alerted an app that Ryan built for his phone. While creating that app, Ryan talked with Mohammed Kachuee, a graduate student at the University of California. He helped Ryan use machine learning to train his app with data from 2018 Camp Fire, the most destructive fire in California history. The app took lessons from how this fire had traveled over time. Using those data, the app “learned” to tell how flames at future events might spread.

Someday, Ryan hopes his sensors might be used throughout his state. “Five of the worst fires in California just happened in the last three months,” he notes.

8. What is the function of the app Ryan built for his phone?

A. To transfer data about campfires. B. To detect smoke from wildfires.

C. To predict how a fire might spread. D. To show how we can prevent a fire.

9. Which of the following best describes Ryan?

A. Caring and creative. B. Brave and optimistic.

C. Ambitious and demanding. D. Hardworking and intelligent.

10. What is the text mainly about?

A. The effects of changing climate.

B. A boy’s experience with wildfires.

C. A research program open to students.

D. A student’s scientific research on wildfires.

Goldberg describes the idea behind designing these playgrounds as completely inclusive. They don’t strictly cater to (迎合) children with disabilities and are not meant to prevent any child from access to play. ____14____

The inclusive playground model is now spreading across the county. While the original Harper’s Playground is located in Portland, Oregon, similar playgrounds have popped up throughout the state. Harper’s Playground is now teaming up with those interested in building a park of their own. ____15____

Changing the way playgrounds are built will have a wide-spread effect. It will affect the way schools are designed and built, and it will affect how the workplace is treated, and then ultimately it will change the way people with disabilities are thought of and treated.

B. Harper’s Playground was created for just this reason.

C. Harper’s Playground began to work on its initial designs.

D. The equipment and layout provide access to a fun experience for all.

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

I always dreamed of giving someone a surprise, one that will be remembered for a lifetime. You know, the kind you see on TV or read in stories. Well, thanks to a little determination, some luck, and a generous helping of Christmas Spirit, my dream became a reality.

My family is Canadian, although my sister moved down to Australia a few years ago to further her study. She was graduating just before Christmas. However, due to my own school schedule back home, I would not be able to make it in time for her graduation. She was understandably disappointed, and I felt guilty that I wasn’t able to be there for her on this most special occasion.

While I was talking to my school advisor about my term paper the week before my sister’s graduation, our conversation drifted toward Christmas plans. When I mentioned that I would be missing my sister’s graduation by less than 48 hours, she commented, “Well, if you want to go, I have no problem with it, so go ahead!”

On hearing the words I couldn’t believe my luck! I nearly jumped for joy. “Just make sure you get permission from administration,” she added. What she said immediately made my heart sink. The administration at my school was well-known for denying any sort of time-off requests, let alone last-minute requests, which would undoubtedly draw nothing but anger. I almost didn’t bother asking, because I knew it would be a waste of time and I didn’t feel like a thorough punishment. Plus, I knew the answer already: no. But something in me decided to try, just in case. Maybe it was the hope that the Christmas Spirit would somehow affect the administrative office at this time of year.

When I returned home to find the reply from the administration in my email box, I prepared myself for disappointment.

注意：

1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右；

2. 至少使用 5 个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；

3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；

I took a deep breath, opened the e-mail, and started to read.

With the ticket, I couldn’t wait to call my sister but suddenly an idea occurred to me.
