第二部分? 閱讀理解(共兩節(jié),滿分40分)
第一節(jié)(共15小題;每小題2分,滿分30分)
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
With over 2.4 million visitors every year, Cinque Terre is one of the most-visited regions in Italy. Cinque Terre is truly special. The five candy-colored fishing villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, and Monterosso al Mare are built into cliffs over the clean and brightly-shining Ligurian Sea. Whether youre visiting the region for a few days or a few weeks, these are the experiences you should add to your trip pleasure.
· Take a scenic hike.
Its easy to visit each of the attractive villages on foot. The most popular hike is the coastal path Sentiero Azzurro. It links all five villages and offers extremely beautiful scenery of the sea, architecture and vineyards. It takes about six hours to go across, with short breaks, but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming.
· Eat seafood in a cone (錐形蛋筒卷).
Dessert lovers might think that Italian ice-cream is the best thing to be served in a cone but make room for seafood cones as well. Thanks to its coastal location, Cinque Terre is full of seafood restaurants.
· Get on a boat.
If the weather cooperates, take the time to get out on the water. The villages look very beautiful from a boat. The cheapest and easiest way is to jump on the public ferry (渡船) from one of the villages to the next, but these boats are often crowded. Its far more relaxing to take a private cruise, which departs (出發(fā)) from the docks in Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vernazza, and Monterosso al Mare.
· Take the train.
Cinque Terres train system is one of the most scenic in Europe. The high-speed train runs through each of the five villages every 20 minutes or so. And the whole line is directly on the coast, offering lovely views of the Ligurian Sea and rocky cliffs.
21. What is special about the five candy-colored fishing villages?
A. Their foods. B. Their histories. C. Their locations. D. Their villagers.
22. What is the favorite food for the hikers in the five villages?
A. Italian wines. B. Seafood cones. C. Seafood noodles. D. Italian ice-cream.
23. What can be the best way to enjoy both the beautiful scenery and the delicious food?
A. Riding a bicycle. B. Taking a boat or private ferry.
C. Walking with stops in the villages. D. Taking a train through the villages.
B
Katharine Mehtas mother likes to joke that the first sentence her daughter said was “I love dogs”. Its not the fact, but its certainly true in spirit.
“When I was young, my grandmother told me about how she sometimes found stray (走失的) dogs and cats, and kept them on her farm as pets,” says Katharine. “That made me wonder what would happen when animals didnt have a home. I felt horrible thinking that they might be hungry or could get hit by a car.”
But what could a little girl do? The answer came during a trip to a park in her New York City neighborhood two years ago, where she met volunteers from Mighty Mutts, a local no?-kill animal rescue (救援) organization. “I thought maybe I could earn some money and give it to them,” she says.
Since Katharine had plenty of practice taking care of her own dog, she decided to start a summer dog-walking service. She chose two friends and, with their parents permission, the group put up homemade posters with their phone numbers and a bargain price—50 cents an hour. Before long they had 15 dogs in their care. “We walked two or three at a time with one mother helping out,” she says. “By the end of that summer, wed collected $45.” That fall Katharine and her mother, Loma, came up with another mini enterprise to raise money for Mighty Mutts—selling fresh-baked shortbread to their neighbors.
The 11-year-old, who starts sixth grade this fall, has become a nonstop campaigner. Her mother says, “When she sees somebody with a dog, she starts a conversation and tells them to donate to Mighty Mutts.”
Katharines passion comes from the heart. “It makes me cry to think that strays might be put to sleep when theres a group that can find new homes for them,” Katharine says. “But it makes me smile to know I can help.”
24. Where does Katharines love of dogs come from?
A. Her mothers jokes. B. Her seeing a dog killed by a car.
C. Her grandmothers influence. D. The influence of an organization.
25. How did Katharine help the organization Mighty Mutts?
A. By giving shortbread to stray dogs. B. By making speeches everywhere.
C. By walking stray dogs. D. By collecting money.
26. What does the underlined part “be put to sleep” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Be supplied with a comfortable place for sleeping.
B. Be given drugs to die without pain.
C. Be made unconscious.
D. Be made to sleep.
27. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Katharine loves her pets. B. Katherine helps stray dogs.
C. Pet dogs are popular with children. D. How Might Mutts rescue stray dogs.

Have you ever been sad because of failure? Please remember, for quite often achieving what you set out to do is not the most important thing.
A boy decided to dig a deep hole behind his house. As he was working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “I want to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a while, the boy picked up a jar. He showed it to the visitors. It was full of all kinds of stones and insects. Then he said calmly and confidently, “Maybe I cant finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what Ive found during this period!”
The boys goal was far too difficult, but it did cause him to go on. And that is what a goal is for—to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen, in other words, to cause us to keep working!
Not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you fall short of your aim, maybe you can say, “Yes, but look at what Ive found along the way! There are so many wonderful things having come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived. It is the unexpected joy on the journey that really makes sense.
28. The visitors laughed because he thought the young boy to be ___ .
A. brave B. foolish C. impolite D. warm-hearted
29. Why did the boy show the jar to the older boys?
A. To drive them away. B. To show how beautiful the jar was.
C. To attract them to join in his work. D. To show what he had found while digging.
30. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Few dreams can come true. B. Work will end successfully.
C. Goals shouldnt be set too high. D. Goals will make us work harder.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. A Boy Dug a Hole B. Joy on the Journey
C. No Pains, No Gains D. Failure Is the Mother of Success
D
Most humans are able to recognize about 1 million different colors, but some people cant recognize this mainly because of something called colorblindness. In rare cases, some people cant see any colors at all.
There are three cone-shaped (錐形的) cells at the back of our eyes that allow us to see colors. These cells absorb tight waves and send a message to the brain, where the image is processed.
If something is wrong with these cone-shaped cells, this can result in colorblindness.
Thankfully, special color-correcting glasses have already been made to help fix some types of colorblindness. Now, according to research published in Optics Letters, scientists have provided another choice.
Sharon Karepov and Tal Ellenbogen, engineers from Tel Aviv University in Israel, have found a way to apply this technology to contact lenses (隱形眼鏡). This is good news for the millions of people worldwide who suffer from colorblindness.
One of the most common types of colorblindness is red-green colorblindness. People who have this specific type have difficulty telling the colors red and green apart. “Problems with telling red and green apart stop simple daily routines such as deciding whether a banana is ripe,” Karepov explained.
Karepov also stressed the importance of applying this finding to create special contact lenses instead of relying on color-correcting glasses.
“Glasses based on this correction concept are commercially available. However, they are too big than contact lenses,” Karepov said. “Our contact lenses create a customized, compact and durable (耐用的) way to deal with these shortcomings.”
This new research is groundbreaking. In addition to offering those who are colorblind another choice, it may lead to solutions for other visual (視力的) damage.
32. Colorblindness appears when ___ .
A. images received cant be processed by cone-shaped cells
B. eyes have just one type of cone-shaped cell
C. light waves cant be absorbed by the brain
D. cone-shaped cells dont work properly
33. What does “this technology” refer to in Paragraph 5?
A. The processed image. B. Three cone-shaped cells.
C. The red-green colorblindness type. D. Special color-correcting glasses.
34. What can we infer from the text about people with colorblindness?
A. They are not interested in colorful stuff.
B. They may find daily tasks more difficult.
C. They can recognize few different colors.
D. They have fewer cone-shaped cells than normal people.
35. Why is the research said to be groundbreaking?
A. It has found causes of visual damage.
B. It has led to a cure for colorblindness.
C. It could lead to solutions for other visual damage.
D. It has helped to develop glasses to fix visual damage.

Most people use the weekends to kick back and relax. 36 Because youre on duty, you have to focus on your work seven days a week. While you dont have to be at your desk every minute of every day, weekends make you free to structure your lifestyle so that you can get the most out of your busy schedule (日程安排). Here are a few ways to make you more productive both at work and in life during the weekends.
Dont work 24/7. Though its important to think about your business on the weekend, you shouldnt be plugged (填塞) in the way you are during the week. 37 Instead, work on projects you enjoy or use the time to think about your business in a broader way. Ask yourself, “What do I want to achieve this week, month or year?” Evaluate how your day-to-day activities are taking you closer to your long-term goals.
Check your e-mail once or twice a day. 38 Read all your messages, arrange any activities, and then put your phone away. If you know you will be checking e-mail at a specific time, youll be less likely to check it throughout the day.
39 You could go somewhere quiet to relax, or spend time with friends and family members. Since all your previous five days have been spent on your work, you deserve your own time to relax, and to strengthen your relationship with others. However, make sure youre prepared to walk into work on Monday while enjoying yourself.
Dont oversleep. Though some people enjoy sleeping until noon on the weekend, its not beneficial to your health. 40 So try not to sleep more than two or three extra hours on the weekend.
A. Find a hobby.
B. Set time for yourself.
C. Schedule a certain time in the day to check your e-mail.
D. Regular exercise will make you healthier and less likely to fall ill.
E. Dont be glued to the computer or check your e-mail continuously.
F. If you sleep too many hours, youll likely feel weak throughout the day.
G. Unfortunately, if you own your own business, you dont always have that comfort.
36. ______? 37. ______? 38. ______? 39. ______? 40. ______

Our school organized an activity to climb Mount Tai last week. The majority of my classmates joined the activity. Early in the morning, we head straight to Mount Tai. We set out for the top in high spirits when the moment we arrived at the foot of the mountain. In a course of the climb, we cooperated with each other to pass the rocky and steep areas.
