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
Shortly after the war，my brother and I were invited to spend a few days with an uncle who had just returned from abroad.He had rented a cottage in the country，although he rarely spent much time there.Weunderstood the reason for this after our arrival: the cottage had no comfortable furniture in it，many of the windows were broken and the roof leaked，making the whole house damp.
On our first evening，we sat around the fire after supper listening to the stories which our uncle had to tell of his many adventures in distant countries.I was so tired after the long train journey that I would have preferred to go to bed; but I could not bear to miss any of my uncle's exciting tales.
He was just in the middle of describing a rather terrifying experience he had once had when there was a loud crash from the bedroom above，the one where my brother and I were going to sleep.
“It sounds as if the roof has fallen in！” Cried out my uncle，with a loud laugh.
When we got to the top of the stairs and opened the bedroom door，we could see nothing at first because of the thick clouds of dust which filled the room.When the dust began to clear，a strange sight met our eyes.A large part of the ceiling had fallen down，falling right on to the pillow of my bed.I was glad that I had stayed up late to listen to my uncle's stories，otherwise I should certainly have been seriously injured，perhaps killed.
That night we all slept on the floor in the sitting room downstairs，not wishing to risk our lives by sleeping under a roof which might at any moment fall down on
our heads.We left for London the very next morning and my uncle gave up his cottage in the country.This was not the kind of adventure he cared for either!
21. Why did the uncle seldom spend much time in the country cottage?
A．Because the roof of the cottage was falling.
B．Because the cottage was in bad condition.
C．Because he was used to living abroad.
D．Because there was no furniture in it.
22. When they opened the bedroom door，they could see nothing at first because ________.
A．it was completely dark inside B．there was too much dust in the air
C．something strange blinded them D．it was too bright inside
23. The writer felt glad that he had stayed up late because ________.
A．he did not miss the exciting stories B．he spent more time with his uncle C．he had a lucky escape D．he saw a strange sight
24. Which of the following can best describe the writer's uncle?
A．Adventurous and good at storytelling. B．Humorous and good at making jokes.
C．Dependable and generous with money. D．Considerate and sensitive to danger.
B
Many young people these days adore the advertised magazine body and become too focused on attaining this image instead of worrying more about what lasts and even grows over time.But could you imagine being considered beautiful for years, and suddenly being ugly after moving to another continent? It is a sad reality that people don't realize how vacillating the idea of beauty can be from one country to another.
Think of the most typical American girl you know.Is she blonde-haired with white skin and light blue eyes, and does she love shopping or sports? Now place this girl in the heart of Africa, where beauty is placed on what you can control.The Maasai tribe in Kenya focuses on how clean people are, and how stylish their piercings(穿孔) are.This tribe's culture is to be a brave fighter, so they will cut their skin with patterns in it to show that they are strong.If you don't look fierce, you are not beautiful.
Other countries like North Korea and South Korea have their own unique views on beauty.In an interview, a woman who has lived in both North Korea and South Korea claims that beauty in North Korea is based more on your ability to be a good woman and wife.She says that women in North Korea are less concerned about fashion and beauty
in the physical sense.She says they did have a time when big eyes were a big deal and everyone wanted to get double eyelid surgery.This is something extreme and could perhaps be influenced by Western culture.But don't you think the idea of getting surgery done to look more attractive is crazy?
25. What does the underlined word “vacillating” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A．Inconsistent. B．Reasonable. C．Unusual. D．Similar.
26. The Maasai tribe in Kenya is mentioned to show that in their eyes ________.
A．getting dirty is stylish B．looking fierce is beautiful
C．strong people cut their skin D．American girls love shopping
27. According to the woman interviewed，women in North Korea now ________.
A．care a lot about their appearance B．put the beauty of eyes in the first place C．pay great attention to their ability D．are crazy about double eyelid surgery 28. What does the text mainly tell us?
A．Inner beauty is of great importance.
B．Ideas of beauty vary among culture groups.
C．Different ways are needed to admire true beauty.
D．Fashion magazines easily influence young people.
C
We all have one shirt in the closet that we don't want to get rid of，yet keep around because we can't bear to just throw it in the garbage.We don't wear it anymore.Being a little out of style，your old T-shirt needs anew home where it can be appreciated.Onecity in Toronto has started aproject to give it one.
Earlier this year，the Toronto suburb(郊区) of Markham introduced a new program encouraging its residents and residents of nearby suburbs to donate their old unwanted clothing.The program is exceptional because unlike most of those second-hand stores，they are accepting old clothing that isn't quite in perfect condition.It is breathing new life into these typ ically-trashed items.Contrary to common belief, textiles(纺织品) are not only used for clothing，and these items are being repurposed in a variety of interesting ways.
The city has set up many different donation centers around the suburbs，and residents are encouraged，to donate any unwanted textiles they happen to have lying around their house.It's volunteers' duty to divide the donations into different sorts.Those items in usable and good condition are donated to local homeless shelters and other aid centers.Those which are not are shipped off to be used for industrial
purposes.Only when there is no more industrial need for fabric and textiles will they begin to use their last place—a landfill outside the city.
The program isn't the city's only green initiative(倡议)．It has already had one of Canada and the world's largest solar panels，and it is said that they are steadily working towards a shift to 100% renewable energy.The city also has subsidized(补助) farmers' markets and over 125 miles of bike paths.As a result，Markham also has a much lower rate of obesity than other Canadian cities.Now，it's working towards another goal—100% recycling of unwanted textiles.
29．What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A．A shirt. B．A city. C．A home. D．A closet.
30．What do the volunteers do with the unwanted clothing?
A．Sell some in good condition. B．Sort through the donations.
C．Share them with poor kids. D．Send them for industrial use.
31．What does the author want to say in the last paragraph?
A．The city has been the best place to live in Canada.
B．The program is more successful than expected.
C．The citizens have fallen in love with the city.
D．The city is working hard to be a green one.
32．What is the main idea of this text?
A．One Canadian city is giving old clothing a new life.
B．Old clothes are becoming more useful in Canada.
C．Rubbish has been put into wide use in Canada.
D．Donation centers become popular in Canada.
D
The fact that ants are fascinating insects has been known for some time.Now, scientists have discovered a large number of wood ants living in an abandoned underground storehouse in Templewo, Poland，despite having no obvious source of food.
Polish zoologist Wojciech Czechowski and his team began studying the underground colony in 2013.They found the ants built a 60 cm high nest in the soil directly over the storehouse's vertical air pipe.As years passed，the metal covering on the pipe eroded，leaving behind a hole that thousands of worker ants accidentally slip into each day as they go about their daily chores.The scientists say that there are no sources of food in the storehouse.This means that the insects live in a state of near starvation.
In July 2015，the researchers disturbed part of the ant nest in search of larvae(幼虫)，empty cocoons(茧)，and queens.They found nothing，leading them to suspect that the lack of food and cold temperatures made reproduction impossible and that the group tending the nest is entirely made up of non-reproductive female workers.Their population is refilled every year，by a new rain of unfortunate ants that slide down the hole.The researchers say that when they returned in January 2016，the nest had been repaired.It appears that despite the terrible conditions，the worker ants do not stop constructing their nest.
Wood ants are known for their ability to adapt to bad living conditions.In this case，the millions of worker ants trapped in the storehouse have no choice.But instead of losing hope，they are making the best of the situation—a classic example of “when life gives you lemons，make lemonade”．
33．How did the wood ants arrive in the storehouse?
A．They fell down there by accident. B．The research team brought them there.
C．The storehouse builders left them there. D．They were attracted by the environment.
34．What d oes the underlined word “eroded” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．Expanded. B．Rotted.C．Exploded. D．Melted.
35．Why did the population of wood ants remain steady?
A．They had enough food. B．They were able to reproduce.
C．They adapted to the conditions. D．They had new comers to join them.

Television is everywhere around us.Yet it is great for learning English.The pictures make it easier to understand than radio and because you can see who's talking，and get a better idea of what people mean.Just watch their “body language”! Watch programs that you find enjoyable and entertaining. 36
Here's the https://www.doczj.com/doc/eb16439101.html, guide to learning as much as possible while watching English television:
37 Learning English should be fun—not something that you have to force yourself to do.If you have a passion for football, watch matches or the sports news.
Keep a notebook near to your television. 38 This is especially useful.You
can look for programs with subtitles in your own language.
Try to watch English television regularly.Even if you can only watch 15 minutes a day, you'll be amazed how much you learn.
Don't worry if you don't understand everything.English television is normally aimed at native English speakers. 39 If the programs that you're watching are full of unknown words, just concentrate on understanding the general meaning.
Keep a note of television programs and presenters that you find easy to understand and try to watch them regularly. 40 Soon you will impress your friends with your English skills.
A. Don't watch the programs too easy for you.
B. Better watch programs that you find interesting.
C. Programs often include many difficult words.
D. English learning has little to do with watching TV.
E. Whatever you watch will help you improve your English.
F. Doing this will increase your confidence in learning English.
G. You can take down any new words or expressions that you hear.
