These studies show that girls typically read more frequently than boys, and have a more positive attitude toward reading.There are several reasons that help explain these gender-based differences. Parents read more with their daughters. This sends a strong and early message that books are for girls, as well as equipping girls with a significant advantage. Recent research has found even though boys read less frequently than girls, girls still receive more encouragement to read from their parents.So how can parents and educators help bridge this socially-engineered gap for boys’reading?To improve boys’reading performance, parents and educators may look for ways to connect boys with reading. This has led to discussion about the importance of promoting so-called “boy-friendly”books that boys supposedly “prefer”These are typically assumed to be non-fiction works, as many people believed that boys prefer to read non-fiction.But this belief is not supported by recent research, which in fact suggests boys are more likely to choose to read fiction than non-fiction. Encouraging all boys to read non-fiction under the mistaken belief that it is their preference may actually be harmful. Fiction readers read more frequently and demonstrate faster language learning and higher language ability.Besides encouraging more fiction reading, there are a number of ways that we can help connect boys with books. Firstly, don’t assume that boys of the same age have the same interests or that their interests stay the same over time. T o match boys with suitable reading material, have regular discussions about reading for pleasure in order to keep up with their interests.Schools should also provide access to libraries during lessons throughout the years of schooling. Girls visit the library in their free time more than boys, and as students move to higher grades they often have less access to libraries during class. Access to books for boys is essential to promote reading.In addition, we should keep paper books available because research shows that boys are less likely to choose to read on screens than girls. Finally we should promote reading as an enjoyable pastime by being a role model. Let your children or students see you read for pleasure.1.According to the author, what is the main cause of the difference in boys’and girls’reading ability?A. Social factors.B. Teaching methods.C. Personal preferences.D. Psychological differences.2.Why does the author recommend that adults regularly talk to boys about reading?A. T o persuade boys to read more often.B. To learn what boys are most interested in.C. T o help boys improve their language ability.D. T o show that adults are good reading role models.3.When should schools give students additional library access according to the author?A. Before and after class.B. At any time of the school day.C. At regular times during class.D. When they are in the lower grades.4.What is the main purpose of the text?A. T o show students ways to improve their reading.B. To explain why boys are not as good at reading as girls.C. T o urge governments to provide more reading resources.D. T o provide strategies that can help improve boys’reading ability.“Anything you want, anytime you need it.”The message appeared on computer screens across the country at the same time, on thesame day: December 12th, at 12 p.m.. Simultaneously, important looking envelopes containing cards with the same message were hand-delivered to the offices of all the major news companies.One found its way to the desk of Chris Lin, a business reporter at The Post. The card was beautifully designed –a black background with the words printed out in crisp white letters. There was no explanation on the back, just a website address.Chris went to the website. Its style was identical to the card’s and said: “Anytime: Starting Tomorrow.”The next day websites and blogs were filled with articles theorising about Anytime. Was it a shopping website like T ao Bao or Amazon? A joke? Something illegal? Anytime’s marketing had worked –it was a household name before it’d even made a single sale.When the opening came, that day at noon, the Anytime website suddenly had a single field that read, “What do you want?”All you had to do was type the words into that box, and then specify how quickly you wanted your item delivered: within one, ten, or twenty-four hours.Bloggers were the first to test the service. And their reviews were glowing. Within weeks, Anytime had become a part of daily life. Nobody used other delivery sites or the post anymore as Anytime was much cheaper and faster.Chris still wondered what exactly Anytime was. He tried to find out who owned the company, but it was registered in a small country that did not require such information to be made public. He did find some interesting facts, though. Anyone who challenged the company, it seemed, met with serious trouble. A government official critical of Anytime for avoiding tax was forced to leave his position after news stories suddenly appeared claiming he was dishonest. The head of another company taking Anytime to court died in a car accident just days before the case was to begin.Chris began making a list of all the people who had something terrible happen to them after opposing or criticising Anytime. By lunch, he had more than one hundred examples. Something was definitely wrong. Chris worked on his list the rest of the day, emailing people who could provide more information and looking through newspaper records. After working through the night, an exhausted Chris finally fell asleep at his desk at 4 a.m..When he woke a few hours later, there was a message flashing on his computer screen: “Stop making trouble.”Chris smiled. He had no intention of stopping now that he knew he was on the right track.1.What was on the front of the card sent to Chris Lin?A. An invitation to a company opening.B. The website address of a new company.C. The words “Anytime: Starting tomorrow”.D. The words “Anything you want, anytime you need it”.2.Why did the company choose to send the cards to many news reporters?A. Because it didn’t have enough money for traditional advertising.B. Because it wanted to attract the reporters as customers.C. So the reporters would write stories about the new company.D. So people would find the new company interesting.3.What did Chris’s research suggest about Anytime?A. Itmay be very dangerous.B. Its popularity would soon decrease.C. It was doing business all over the world.D. It was being widely criticised by journalists.4.How did Chris feel at the end of the story?A. Scared that he would get into trouble.B. Confident that he would find the truth.C. Nervous about what the company would do.D. Satisfied that he had discovered the company’s secret.Inside a secured room in a beautiful castle near Paris, a small metal cylinder (圆柱体) rests on a shelf beneath a double set of bell jars. It has lain there for more than a century, its rest only occasionally disturbed when the room’s three key holders perform a coordinated opening ceremony to let technicians enter and clean this precious piece of metal.First, the cylinder is rubbed with a piece of soft, alcohol-soaked cloth. Then it is steamed with pure water. Finally, the 1kg cylinder is returned, carefully, to its resting place.Such attention to a lump of metal is unusual, but has a purpose. The castle houses the International Bureau of Weights and Measures and that piece of shining, circular metal is its holiest relic. It is the defining mass (质量)against which all other kilograms are measured. This is the international prototype, or standard, of the kilogram. The IPK, in short.Dozens of carefully weighted copies of the original have been made. They are stored around the world and used to standardise individual nations’weights and measures systems.But the days of the IPK, in its current form, are numbered. The International Bureau of Weights and Measures has decided to replace this single physical specimen with a more fundamental measurement –based on electric current –in order to define the mass of an object. The king of kilograms is about to be dethroned.“One key reason for doing this work is to provide international security,”says Bureau spokesman Paul Robinson. “If the castle burned down tomorrow and the kilogram was destroyed,we would have no reference left for the world’s metric weights system. There would be chaos. The current definition of the kilogram is the weight of that cylinder in Paris, after all.”Another major motivation for the replacement of the IPK is the growing need to be able to carry out more and more precise measurements. “Drug companies will soon be wanting to use ingredients that will have to be measured in terms of a few millionths or even billionths of a gram,”says Robinson. “We need to be prepared to weigh substances with that kind of accuracy.”1.What do we know about the IPK from the first two paragraphs?A. It’s cared for with great devotion.B. It’s used in religious ceremonies.C. It’s beautifully designed and decorated.D. It’s the most valuable metal in the world.2.Which of the following best explains “dethroned”underlined in paragraph 5?A. rebuiltB. removedC. destroyedD. upgraded3.What is a reason for replacing the current IPK?A. T o protect the metal cylinder from damage.B. To make taking measurements more economical.C. T o provide all countries with the same standard.D. T o satisfy the increasing demand for exactness.4.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. No more kilosB. A heavy technologyC. The future of the kiloD. The history of measures二、七选五It was the 20xx “super storm”in New South Wales that restored my faith in people.During a break in the weather, I stupidly decided to drive into town to buy some groceries. However, as I left the supermarket and drove back, the weather took a turn for the worse. 1. Having nowhere to go, I spotted a young man in his front yard assessing the situation. He quickly waved to me to come and park in his driveway.2.The man, who introduced himself as Trent, then invited me to wait inside his house with his wife, Kayti and their two daughters. I told him I was concerned about the damage to my car, as the continuing rain was starting to turn into hail (冰雹).Trent then grabbed a blanket from his garage and covered my car. 3. Fortunately, his efforts saved my car from being damaged by the hail.By 11:00 a.m., the electricity and phone services had both gone. 4. Trent made me a cup of tea and Kayti gave me a towel to dry myself off. The three of us chatted while waiting for the weather to get better. I learned that Trent had lost his job and was struggling to feed the family.When the hail stopped, I shook Trent’s hand and kissed Kayti goodbye. 5. I was very moved by their kindness and it renewed my faith in people.As I went out the door, I asked Trent for two of his business cards. My father has since called to offer him a job as a clerk at his company.A. It began pouring so heavily that I was forced to stop.B. The couple were so modest as I thanked them for their help.C. I was surprised that he didn’t ask for anything in return for his assistance.D. I was grateful to escape the running water that was about to drown my car.E. I tried driving faster to escape the heavy downpour that was sure to come.F. As a result, I couldn’t contact my parents, despite knowing they’d be worried.G.He was wet but he didn’t seem to mind being out in the wild weather on my behalf.三、完形填空Why study history?People live in the present.

when you cancel your membershipB.get expert training but you need to pay extra feeC.go to the gym only from 6:00 am to 10:00 pmD.go to the gym only from Monday to Saturday23.What do you think the above passage is?A.A storybook.B.A science magazine.C.A TV show.D.An advertisement.BIt's perhaps the world's most famous underwater attraction that remained in film and in legend: the Titanic.But now experts say the ocean liner,once a wonder of the high seas,is falling to pieces.Capt.Alfred McLaren,the scientist who in July led the most recent expedition to the ship's underwater grave,said his team saw clear signs of the accelerating damage of the wreck (残骸).There was damage likely caused by rust and sea life,and the captain's cabin had collapsed.“I was absolutely astonished,”McLaren said.Worse still,the fallen mast (桅杆)that crushed the ship's deck is believed by many to be the res ult of an unapproved salvage(打捞)operation.“It was almost depressing to see how quickly she was g etting worse,"McLaren says.“I would be really surprised if there's very much standing up from the bottom,two decades from now.”Ed Kamuda,who runs the Titanic Historical Society in Springfield,Mass.,says adventure tourists —who pay $36,000 each to visit the wreck—are also contributing to the destruction of it.“This is something I expected.I just didn't expect it to happen so quickly,”Kamuda said. “People are going down just as an ego trip to say I was there.'All this takes a fare on the ship.”The Titanic has sat at the bottom of the Atlantic since it sank after hitting an iceberg on its maiden voyage on April 14,1912.More than 1,500 people died that night.The ship came to rest at the bottom of the freezing North Atlantic,more than 2 miles beneath the waves.The wreck was discovered in 1985,and since then it has been repeatedly visited by treasure hunters.But still some scientists say those divers,and other thrill seekers are not necessarily to blame for the Titanic's current problems.Capt.Craig McLean of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration went on an expedition to the Titanic in June as part of a government study that is monitoring the condition of the ship.He says it's unclear what part of the damage is from Mother Nature and which is from human nature.“It's too early and there isn't enough evidence to put our fingers on anything,”McLean said.Regardless,most agree there's little that can be done for this most famous of wrecks.And soon, the mighty Titanic could well be lost again.24.McLaren expected that in twenty yearsA.Only a minor part of the wreck would remain as it isB.The wreck would be getting worse at a faster speedC.Only salvage operation with the purpose of research would be approvedD.The wreck would be completely destroyed by unapproved treasure hunters25.What is the tourist's purpose of visiting the wreck,according to Kamuda?A.To contribute to the breaking down of the Titanic.B.To help finance the preservation of the Titanic.C.To satisfy their curiosity and adventurousness.D.To better understand the history of the Titanic.26.Craig McLean is one of the scientists who believeA.Visitors should not be prohibited from the Titanic and other famous wrecksB.The influence of the thrill seekers on the wreck will finally be determinedC.The government should contribute more to the monitoring of the TitanicD.The damage of the Titanic is not necessarily caused by the adventure tourists27.The author is most likely to agree that the future of the Titanic is_________A.promisingB.discouragingC.controllableD.vagueCIn department stores and closets all over the world,they are waiting.Their outward appearance seems rather appealing because they come in a variety of styles,patterns,materials,and colors.But they are eventually the biggest deception(欺骗)that exists in the fashion industry today.What are the y?They are high heels —a woman's worst enemy (whether she knows it or not).High heel shoes are the downfall of modern society.Fashion myths have led women to believe that they are more beautiful or stylish for wearing heels,but in reality,heels succeed in creating short as well as long term troubles.Women should fight the high heel industry by refusing to use or purchase them in order to save the world from unnecessary physical and psychological suffering.For the sake of fairness,it must be noted that there is a positive side to high heels.First,heels are excellent for aerating lawns(草坪通气).Anyone who has ever worn heels on grass knows what I am talking about.A simple trip around the yard in a pair of those babies gets rid of all the need to call for a lawn care specialist,and provides the perfect-sized holes to give any lawn oxygen without all those messy blocks of dirt lying around.Second,heels are quite functional for defending against potential enemies,who can easily be scared away by threatening them with a pair of these sharp, deadly fashion items.Regardless of such practical uses for heels,the fact remains that wearing high heels is harmful to one's physical health.Talk to any podiatrist(足病医生),and you will hear that the majority of theirbusiness comes from high-heel-wearing women.High heels are known to cause problems such as deformed feet and torn toenails.The risk of severe back problems and twisted or broken ankles is three times higher for a high heel wearer than for a flat shoe wearer.Wearing heels also creates the threat of getting a heel caught in a narrow sidewalk gap and being thrown to the ground —possibly breaking a nose,back,or neck.And of course,after wearing heels for a day,any woman knows she can look forward to a night of pain as she tries to comfort her aching feet.28.Women don't take the disadvantages of high heels too seriously because ofA.their attempt to show off their statusB.the rich variety of high heel stylesC.their wish to improve their appearanceD.the multi-functional use of high heels29.What's the author's tone in presenting the positive sides of high heel shoes?A.ironicB.favorableC.sympatheticD.objective30.The writer uses “those babies”(Paragraph 2)to refer to high heelsA.to show their delicate characteristicB.to show women's affection for themC.to emphasize their small sizeD.to indicate their trendy appearance31.It can be inferred from the passage that women shouldA.refuse to buy the products of the fashion industryB.go to apodiatrist regularly for adviceC.avoid following fashion too closelyD.see through the very nature of fashion mythsDCarried by the wind,dust particles( 微粒 )from places such as the Sahara Desert can float half way around the world before settling to the ground.As the plastics abandoned by humans break down into tiny pieces in the environment,they,too,travel through the atmosphere.Now scientists are a step closer to understanding how these microplastics travel in the globe —both locally and on long-distance flights.Researchers spent more than a year collecting microplastics from 11 national parks and wilderness areas in the western U.S.They examined the particles that settled on dry days and those that fell along with rain or snow.In addition to making clear how microplastics move around,the results,published on Thursday in Science,reveal the seriousness of the problem:more than 1 million kilograms of microplastics —the weight of 120 million to 300 million plastic water bottles —fall on protected lands in the country's western region each year.The new findings add to scientists' concern over microplastic pollution's potential impacts on the environment and human health.“We're not supposed to breathe in this material,”says Steve Allen,a microplastics researcher at the University of Strathclyde in Scotland,who was not involvedin the new study.Plastics in the environment "carry all sorts of pesticides (农药),heavy metals and all the other chemicals that we ve made over time,"he adds.“They're going to carry them directly into our lungs.”Since their discovery in oceans in the 1970s,microplastics —which can be as large as a grain of rice or smaller than a particle of dust —have been found nearly everywhere researchers have looked:in cities,in Arctic snow,on remote mountaintops.Their presence in areas distant from the place where human live has pointed to them being carried by winds.32.What do the scientists further understand now?A.Why Sahara Desert is expanding to the south of Africa.B.How plastic particles travel on the wind.C.Why it is hard for plastics to break down.D.How dust particles are spreading through the wind.33.What do we know about the new study?A.The results showed the amount of microplastics is huge.B.Researchers collected microplastics across the U.S.C.Researchers focused on plastic particles in dry days.D.Numerous plastic water bottles were found each year.34.What does Steve Allen say about plastics?A.They should be recycled.B.They do harm to weather.C.They can be used to make all sorts of pesticides.D.They carry harmful chemicals to human lungs.35.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Dust Particles Is Harmful to Our LungsB.The Environment Is Threatened by PlasticsC.Microplastics Are Falling from the SkyD.Microplastics Do Harm to Health第二节(共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIn ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment. Modern businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics（策略）.One tactic involves where to display the goods. Foe example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know t hat customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food later in their trip. In department stores, the women’s shoe section is generally next to the women’s cosmetics section：while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers’ senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wine went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.21.Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?A. To save customers’ time.B.

The camps have excellent horses, professional guides and lots of support workers. They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.The morning ride, when the guides take you to beautiful, shallow lakes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlike any other riding experience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly exciting. You are very likely to come across large wild animals, too. On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink. Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses, the romance of Africa comes to life.Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine. Looking back on your day, you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as youwill ever come to answering the call of the wild.25. What does the author find most exciting about a horse safari?A. Seeing and feeling the real African life.B. Enjoying good food and wine at the camp.C. Hunting large animals just as our ancestors did.D. Being part of the scene and getting close to animals.26. What does the underlined word "sedate" probably mean?A. Wild and romanticB. Slow and peacefulC. Hurry and thirstyD. Active and excited27. The author introduced the riding experience in the Okavango Delta mainly by________.A. Following space orderB. Following time orderC. Making classificationsD. Giving examplesCThe values of artistic works, according to cultural relativism(相对主义), are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.History has witnessed the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries. Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.In a 1757 essay, the philosop her David Hume argued that because“the general principles of taste are uniform(不变的) in human nature,”the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explainthe long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.28.According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?A. It introduces different cultural values.B. It explains the history of artistic works.C. It relates artistic values to local conditions.D. It excites the human mind throughout the world.29.In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that .A. great works of art can go beyond national boundariesB. history gives art works special appeal to set them apartC. popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great artsD. great artists are skilled at combining various cultures30.According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because .A. they are results of scientific studyB. they establish some general principles of artC. they are created by the world’s greatest artistsD. they appeal to unchanging features of human nature31.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. Are Artistic Values Universal?B. Are Popular Arts Permanent?C. Is Human Nature Uniform?D.Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?DSuppose you become a leader in an organization. It’s very likely that you’ll want to have volunteers to help with the organization’s activities. To do so, it should help to understand why people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work.Let’s begin with the question of why people volunteer. Researchers have identified several factors that motivate people to get involved. For example, people volunteer to express personal values related to unselfishness, to expand their range of experiences and to strengthen social relationships. If volunteer positions do not meet those needs, peoplemay not wish to participate. To select volunteers, you may need to understand the motivations of the people you wish to attract.People also volunteer because they are required to do so. To increase levels of community service, some schools have launched compulsory volunteer programmes. Unfortunately, these programmes can shift people’s w ish of participation from an internal factor (e.g. “I volunteer because it’s important to me”) to an external factor (e.g. “I volunteer because I’m requir ed to do so”) When that happens, people become less likely to volunteer in the future. People must be sensitive to this possibility when they make volunteer activity a must.Once people begin to volunteer, what leads them to remain in their positions over time? To answer this question, researchers have conducted follow-up studies in which they track volunteers over time. For instance, one study followed 238 volunteers in Florida over a year. One of the most important factors that influenced their satisfaction as volunteers was the amount of suffering they experienced in their volunteer positions. Although this result may not surprise you, it leads to important practical advice. The researchers note that attention should be given to “training methods that would prepare volunteers for troublesome situations or provide them with strategies for coping with the problem they do experience.”Another study of 302 volunteers at hospitals in Chicago focused on individual differences in the degree to which people view “volunteer” as an important social role. It was assumed that those people for whom the role of volunteer was most part of their personal identity would also be more likely to continue volunteer work. Participants indicated the degree to which the social role mattered by responding to statements such as “Volunteering in H ospital is an important part of who I am.” Consistent with the researchers’ expectations, they found a positive correlation(正相关) between the strength of role identity and the length of time people contributed to volunteer. These results, once again, lead to concrete advice. “Once an individual begins volunteering, continued effort s might focus on developing a volunteer role identity…Items like T-shirts that allow volunteers to be recognized publicly for their contributions can help strengthen role identity.”32. People volunteer mainly out of__________.A. academic requirementsB. social expectationsC. financial rewardsD. internal needs33. What can we learn from the Florida study?A. Follow-up studies should last for one year.B. Volunteers should get mentally prepared.C. Strategy training is a must in research.D. Volunteers are provided with concrete advice.34. What is most likely to motivate volunteers to continue their work?A. Individual differences in role identity.B. Publicly identifiable volunteer T-shirts.C. Role identity as a volunteer.D. Practical advice from researchers.35. What is the best title of the passage?A. How to Get People to VolunteerB. How to Study Volunteer BehaviorsC. How to Keep V olunteers’ InterestD. How to Organize V olunteers’ Activities 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
