第二部分：阅读理解(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、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

What is the number one favourite pet in the UK? If you think the answer is “dog”—you are wrong. There are 8.6 million cats and 8.3 million dogs in Britain according to recent figures. But experts predict(预测) that there will be more dogs than cats next year as dogs become more and more popular.

Dogs as accessories(配饰)

We like to spend time with our pets. The Queen is famous for her corgis(威尔士矮脚狗) and is often photographed with them. Nowadays some dog owners are more extreme-a few TV celebrities even take their dogs shopping or to restaurants. Chihuahuas(吉娃娃犬) are especially popular as “handbag dogs” because they are so small.

Dog holidays

People are also giving their pets holidays. Many UK hotels and holiday parks now welcome dogs as guests. What about owners who go abroad? They can leave their pets at a dog hotel or dog spa while they are away. Some even provide their canine(犬) guests with a TV.

Dogs are for life

The British charity, Dogs Trust, finds homes for thousands of lost and homeless dogs every year. Their famous slogan “A dog is for life and not just for Christmas” was created in the 1970s to teach people about the responsibility of owning a dog. Dogs Trust told British people not to give dogs as gifts or treat them like toys.

Dogs on TV

Victoria Sitwell is the host of the popular TV programme called “It's me or the dog”. In the show Victoria helps dog owners with their pets' bad behavior. She tries to find solutions to problems such as a Dalmatian who thinks he owns the house and won't let the family sit on the sofa, dogs that will only eat ice cream and biscuits and even a bulldog who uses the owner's bed as a toilet. Yuck!

Fashion for dogs 

You can shop online or on the high street for the latest in dog clothes and accessories. Specialist shops sell items such as dog boots, dog fancy dress costumes, dog coats, dog dresses and dog pants.

51. What does the article mainly talk about?________

A. Cats as number one favorite pet in the UK.

B. A culture of dogs as a pet in the UK.

C. Small dogs like Chihuahuas becoming more and more popular.

D. Dogs equally treated as human beings.

52. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4? ________

A. Dog owners should show respect for dogs 'lives.

B. Dog owners should not use dogs as Christmas gifts.

C. Dog owners should care for the dogs more than anything else.

D. Dog owners should devote all their lives to treating their dogs well.

53. From the text we can know that________.

A. dogs will become the number one pet in the UK in the years to come.

B. some dogs are treated as human beings.

C. Victoria Sitwell host a programme to help dog owners to treat sick dogs

D. fashion for dogs causes the economy of the UK to develop quickly

Modern science suggests that a healthy lifestyle matters much to how long you can live and how well you live. Here are some tips for you to form a healthy lifestyle.

Keep a scientific diet. Keep in mind that sugar can be removed from our diet completely. Over intake of sugar is one of the main reasons for getting fat. Over intake of protein or fat and low intake of fiber can also lead to getting fat. Only a few grams of protein do we need every day to keep our body in order. Like rain to crops, not the more the better.

Be always in a good mood. There is a relationship between the mood and health. A good mood keeps you in high spirits. Thanks to the Internet, we can enjoy and learn much without going out. Take a look at some online shops and pick up some bargains, enjoy music and movies and chat with good friends. Just keep happy. 

Enough sleep. Two studies show the reasons why teens and adults don't have enough sleep. With teens, a major reason is mobile phone use; with adults, it's work. Meanwhile, a third study of young children shows that lack of sleep in early life may lead to serious problems in future. Everyone needs at least 8-hour sleep to recover from tiredness and the hurt caused by hard work in the daytime.

Proper exercise. Do exercise to keep away from fatness. Because of the quick pace of the modern life, you don't have time to do exercise every day, but at least three times a week and 45 minutes each time.

54. The author wrote this passage to________.

A. tell the readers how to take proper exercise every day

B. provide some advice on how to form a healthy lifestyle

C. ask people to care about their health rather than their work.

D. make some surveys among those who have health problems.

55. Which of the following can lead to getting fat according to the passage? 

A. Low intake of protein. 

B. Low intake of fat.

C. Over intake of fiber. 

D. Over intake of sugar.

56, The main reason why teenagers don't have enough sleep is that they________.

A. use mobile phones too much

B. have too much homework

C. eat too much sugar every day

D. don't have enough exercise

C

Archaeologists(考古学家), studying Stonehenge and its surrounding area say they've dug up the relies of an untouched, ancient campsite that dates back to 6,000 years--a find that could rewrite British prehistory.

“This is the most important discovery at Stonehenge in over 60 years,” Professor Tim Darvill, a Bournemouth University archaeologist and a Stonehenge expert who did not take part in the new discovery, told the Telegraph. And as he told The Huffington Post in an email, the discovery changes earlier theories that Stonehenge was built in a landscape that was not heavily used before about 3000 B. C.

　The discovery was made during a dig at Blick Mead, a site about 15 miles from Stonehenge. Researchers found charcoal(木炭) dating back to 4,000 B. C. and evidence of possible buildings, according to a statement released by the university. They also dug up burnt stone and tools, as well as the remains of animals--ancient cattle that served as food for ancient hunter-gatherers.  

　The researchers plan further analysis on the artificial objects but say they're worried the tunnel construction(隧道建设) could damage the site and get in the way of their work.

　“Blick Mead could explain what archaeologists have been searching for centuries--an answer to the story of Stonehenge's past,” David Jacques, the University of Buckingham archaeologist who discovered the campsite, told The Guardian. “But our only chance to find out about the earliest part of Britain's history could be ruined if the tunnel goes ahead.” 

　Stonehenge, a prehistoric monument made up of a ring of standing stones, lies eight miles north of Salisbury, England in Wiltshire. It has been listed as a World Heritage Site since 1986.

57. The main purpose of the passage is________

A. to introduce a recent discovery of ancient relics

B. to call on people to protect the ancient relics

C. to warn the researchers not to do further analysis

D. to attract more tourists to visit Stonehenge

58. We can learn from the passage that________.

A. the researchers express their concern that the relics might be ruined

B. the ancient campsite has been destroyed by the construction workers

C. archaeologists are repairing artificial objects founded in the relic site

D. the tunnel construction rewrites the earliest part of Britain's history

59. In which section of a newspaper can we read this passage? ________

A. Travel.   B. Business  C. Lifestyle   D. Culture

60. What might be the best title for the passage? ________

A. Stonehenge Is In Danger of Being Destroyed Because Of the Find.

B. New Stonehenge Discovery Described As Most Important In 60 years.

C. A New Tunnel Is Being Constructed Under Stonehenge.

D. Stonehenge Has Been Listed as a World Heritage Site Since 1986.

D

　Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send orders to machines.

　Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, showed a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person's thoughts.

　In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the wheelchair and guided it with his thoughts.

“Our brain has billions of nerve cells(神经细胞). These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the muscles(肌肉) to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles.”Tavella says.“Our system allows disabled people to communicate with outside world and also to control the machine.”

　The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer understands the signals and directs the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that recognize objects in its path. They help the computer react to orders from the brain.

Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer, software that understands brain signals and turns them into simple orders. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be divided into two kinds: communication, and controlling the machine. One example is this wheelchair.” 

He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to ensure that they can use the technology over long periods of time.

61.BCI is a technology that can ________.

A. help to update computer systems 

B. link the human brain with computers.

C. help the disabled to become well 

D. control a person's thoughts

62. How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory? ________

A. By controlling his muscles. 

B. By talking to the machine.

C. By moving his hand. 

D. By using his mind.

63. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?

A.scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair

B.compute→cap→scalp→wheelchair

C.scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair

D.cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair

64. The team will test with real patients to ________.

A. make profits from them B. prove the technology useful to them

C. make them live longer D. learn about their physical condition

65. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? ________

A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center

B. New Findings About How the Human Brain Works

C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled

D. Computer Technology Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries

Walk Out of the Comfort Zone and Try New Things

For most high school students, free periods are useless. From what I have seen, few do homework; instead many are on their phones and talking, making it impossible for those who actually want to do work to complete any. As a senior next year, I think extra periods should be used to take optional subjects.

Our school offers many classes. Now is the time to experiment in different fields of study. We will never know if we are interested or talented in a subject if we don't try it. 

In my 8th grade, I was told that I had to take an art class as a graduation requirement; so in the 9th grade I took Studio and Art. One of the projects was to build a clay pot, but I built mine incorrectly, so it broke in the kiln(窑). I found out that I have no artistic ability at all, and now I know for sure that I do not want to be an artist. However, the class was one of my favorites that year. I was able to try new activities and test my ability.

Walk out of our comfort zone and try new things! College is when we should focus on a specific major, but high school is when we have to figure it out.

Half of all college students change their major at some point. By doing that hundreds of dollars are wasted on classes that they would never needed to take. So use our extra periods to find out what we want to do in college. The classes we choose can impact us in the future. Taking optional subjects will enrich our mind. It will also show colleges we are diverse students.

91. How should we use our extra periods in the author's opinion?(No more than 9 words)

92. Why does the author think we should experiment in different fields of study?(No more than 17 words)

93. Why did the author take an art class?(No more than 12 words)

94. Why did the clay pot show the author's lack of artistic ability?(No more than 10 words)

95. According to the author, how will taking optional subjects impact us in the future?(No more than 13words)
