The earliest ices were eaten inChina many years ago. The people would put orange juice on ice. Laterthis idea traveled to Italy. Nero, the emperor of Rome between 37 and 68AD liked to eat ice as a special treat between violin lessons. He ordered runners to run to the mountains, get snow and quickly ran back to thepalace. The snow was mixed with fruit juices and nuts. Around 1660, coffee shops serving ice cream were very popular in Paris. Italians owned most of the coffee shops. A man from Sicily, named Francesco, opened the first successful one. Before ice cream was sold in stores, it was madeand frozen at home. It took a lot of work to make the cream, eggs, fruit, ice and salt and then to freeze it. Nancy Johnson, an American woman who was good at machines invented the hand -turned ice -cream freezer in 1846. Five years later, Jacob Flusell opened the first ice cream business in Maryland, US. His business quickly spread to other states. Today, in the US, ice cream is not only a nice food, but a way of life.第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)21．B 细节理解题。

但在今年秋天的下午，父母邦妮·勒默很难专注于女儿索菲的游戏。
小女孩：我需要给出一个很长的结论，比如，陈述。
二、贝蒂·安·鲍泽：那是因为她被她12岁的女儿艾玛边缘化了家庭作业有问题。
三、你晚上花多少个小时做作业？你不会相信的。
艾玛：我3点回家，然后一直走到8点。
四、贝蒂·安·鲍泽：妈妈，你是什么感觉？邦妮·勒纳：太可怕了。
这真的很难，我想同时做六个人，基本上，让三个孩子都做着家庭作业。
五、贝蒂·安·鲍瑟：100多年来，家长和教育工作者一直在努力家庭作业，因为家庭作业被吹捧和谴责为提高学生表现的一种方式。
早在19世纪90年代，它就被认为对儿童的身体和社会需求有害。
在接下来的60年里，同样的论点经常出现。
然后是1957年和人造卫星号。
苏联的卫星发射让美国意识到了苏联技术的挑战，而家庭作业也被视为让美国学童更具竞争力的一种方式。
但在20世纪60年代，美国人还在想其他的事情——关于废除学校种族隔离的法庭斗争、对越南战争的抗议——以及家庭作业水平急剧下降，直到20世纪80年代，日本人在职场和课堂上的表现似乎优于美国人。
发言人：他们认为提高家庭作业的数量与此有关。
六、贝蒂·安·鲍泽：再一次，家庭作业反弹，成为美国孩子提高他们表现的一种方式。
如今，书包的大小，甚至是轮式的行李，表明家庭作业比以往任何时候都更时尚，因为全国各地的学区都在努力提高考试分数。
但再一次，一些家长，甚至一些教育工作者，都想知道孩子们是否在这个过程中遭受了痛苦。
在牛顿的威尔逊家，在一个典型的工作日晚上，现在是晚上7点，大家才能回家。
孩子们从学校、足球训练和曲棍球队都来了；父母贝丝和杰夫·威尔逊的工作是心理学家和麻醉师。

Text 6Computers are useful machines. They can help people a lot in their daily lives. For example, they can help people to save much time, and they can help people to work out many problems they can’t solve easily. Our country encourages everyone to use computers, except the old people.Today more and more families own computers. Parents buy computers for their children. They hope computers can help them improve their studies in school. Yet, many of their children use computers to play games, watch videos, to the extent that computers can make them fall behind. So computers are locked in boxes by parents.In some other countries, even some scientists hate computers. They say computers make millions of people lose their jobs or bring them a lot of trouble. Will computers really bring trouble to people? Or can they bring people happiness?听下面一段独白，回答第9至第11小题。

Text 7In your school bags, most of you may have a pencil, some kinds of pens, a ruler and some books. None of these things grow in the fields. They were all made in factories and invented by someone. They have not always been pencils and pens, rulers and books. Thousands of years ago, no one knew about these things.Who invented them? We don’t always know. There have been thousands of inventions, large and small, in human history. Some of these inventions have changed the world, such as paper, printing and radio, and we know the inventors. But we have forgotten most of the other inventors. Who invented the clock, for example, or the lock to the door? We don’t know. There have been thousands of inventors and we should thank them for their brilliant ideas. Will you be one of them when you grow up?听下面一段独白，回答第12至第15小题。
