第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节,满分50分)

第一节(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A 、B 、C和D )中,选出最佳选项。

A

When Cary and Mike adopted (收养) a black dog a few years ago, the dog didn’t react to basic orders like ‘‘sit” or “stay”. But he was well-trained and polite, so the couple guessed that he had been a member of another family and most likely had a name. “I kept trying to figure his name out,’’ Cary said. “I would sit around with the dog and bring up names like Rover and Blackie, just to see if we might get lucky.”

Nothing worked until the day that Cary, who is Cuban (古巴人), began saying traditional Hispanic (西班牙) names. “One day I was sitting in the living room with my husband, and the dog was lying on the couch.” Cary recalled. “A sudden thought hit me and I said, ‘Pepe,’ and the dog jumped off the couch and came over to where I was sitting. My husband and I looked at each other and said, ‘No way! ’ ”

They waited a few minutes and tried again — with the same result. Cary then told Pepe to “sientate”, a command that the dog had always ignored in English. Pepe sat right down, happy as could be. “I started going through the basic commands in Spanish, and Pepe knew all of them,” Cary said. “I wish I could have taken a picture of his face. He was so happy.”

Cary had already formed a relationship with Pepe before realizing what his name was, which shows that language wasn’t a barrier (障碍) to a strong human-animal relationship. But Cary and Mike use the Spanish language to deepen their relationship with Pepe. Though the dog now knows commands in English, too, Cary says that he is more likely to respond to Spanish.

Of course, using words to communicate with a dog is silly; what’s important is the love behind those words.

21. Why didn’t the dog react to Cary at the beginning?

A. He didn’t like Cary.

B. He missed his precious owner.

C. He couldn’t get used to his new family.

D. He couldn’t understand English.

22. What did Cary try to do to make the dog respond to her at first?

A. Train him in English.     B. Try to find his real name.

C. Sit with the dog and play with him.  D. Take pictures of him.

23. What happened when the dog heard “Pepe” the second time?

A. He ignored it.      B. He sat down.

C. He lay on the couch.     D. He came close to Cary.

24. “Slentate’’ is ______.

A. Spanish for “come here”    B. Spanish for “sit down”

C. a dog’s name in Spanish   D. a way of saying “hello” in Spanish

B

    Still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a walk away from your college.

King’s Art Centre
    A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.
    You could attend a class teaching you how to “learn from the masters” or get more creative with paint—free of charge.
    The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.

The Botanic Garden
    The Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.
    The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss.
    Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.
    The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called “Hissing Sid” is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.

Byron’s Pool
     Many stories surround Lord Byron’s time as a student of Cambridge University. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. I’m not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.

It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron’s Pool. A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don’t trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf – over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.
25. As is mentioned in the passage, there is a small charge for ______.
    A. attending the masters’ class    B. working with local artists
    C. learning life drawing     D. seeing an exhibition
26. “Torch Aloe” and “Venus Flytrap” are ______.
    A. common insects      B. impressive plants
    C. rarely-seen snakes     D. wildlife lovers
27. We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed ______.
   A. to fear pet bears      B. to like walking
   C. to be a heavy drinker     D. to finish university in 1805
28. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Some places for weekend break.  B. A way to become creative in art.

C. The colorful life in the countryside.  D. Unknown stories of Cambridge University.

 

C

With flags waving from homes, buildings and cars, it’s not surprising that people have an interest in the creation of the first American flag.

Betsy Ross came from a large family, living in Philadelphia in the 1700s. Like most children in large families, she was expected to take part in helping the family financially. Her role was to make and sell the little white caps worn by many girls at that time. Betsy always put a unique design on each cap. It was considered something of a status (地位) symbol for girls to wear a cap designed and made by Betsy.

In 1773 she married a man called John Ross. And two years later they opened an upholstery (家居) shop in Philadelphia. This was the year the Revolutionary War started.

One day in June 1776, General George Washington went to her shop. “Betsy, I’ve heard you’re the best person at needlework in all of Philadelphia,” he said. He asked Betsy if she was willing to sew a flag that would visually represent (代表) their new nation. Betsy agreed, but after carefully examining the rough sketch (草图) that Washington showed her, she offered a few.

“I notice you want 13 six-pointed stars on that blue field in the corner,” she said. “They of course represent our 13 colonies (殖民地). That’s fine, but I think it would look better if they were five-pointed stars. Also, I don’t think it should be a square flag as you’ve shown on your sketch. A rectangular (长方形的) shaped flag would look better when the wind spreads it at the top of flag poles.”’

Washington thought for a moment and then agreed with Betsy. “Follow my basic design as I’ve sketched out here, but combine your ideas. I think that will improve it.”

Two days later, Washington picked up the new flag. He was happy with what he saw. Soon, that flag design was flying high throughout the colonies.

The following year, in 1777, Congress declared this flag design to be the official flag of the United States of America.

29. What can we learn about Betsy Ross from the article?

A. She was born in a rich family.                    

B. She was very good at needlework.

C. She was forced to sell caps to help support her family.

D. She and her husband opened a shop after the Revolutionary War ended.

30. What did George Washington ask Betsy Ross to do?

A. To sew a flag representing the new nation.

B. To design a flag representing the new nation.

C. To change the design of the formal flag.

D. To give some suggestions about the design of a flag.

31. We can learn from the passage that ______.

A. the Revolutionary War started in 1773  

B. Betsy Ross thought six-pointed stars would look better than five-pointed stars

C. girls were proud to wear a cap designed and made by Betsy Ross

D. there were 13 stars in the middle of the flag

32. What is the text mainly about?

A. The life story of Betsy Ross.

D

The first Europeans came to America in 1492 with Christopher Columbus. Since that time people have come to America from all over the world, from Europe, Africa, and Asia, and they have brought their music with them. This mixing of people and music has created American music.

Music is a very important part of our lives. Music is for dancing, drinking, eating, loving and thinking. Some songs remind us of our childhood or youth. Others remind of the people we love. Many important occasions, like weddings and funerals (葬礼) have special music. Every nation has a national song like the American “The Star-Spangled Banner”. In the U.S., high schools and colleges have school songs too.

Music is a part of the history of America. It expresses the problems and feelings of its people. As the years pass, the music grows and changes.

Modern science has also changed music. Inventions like records, radios, movies, electric instruments, tape recorders, and videos have changed the way we play and listen to music. They have helped to make music an important form of international communication.

American music, from the earliest folk songs to modern “pop”, is known around the world. Music is one of America’s most important exports. It brings the people of the world together. Even when people cannot understand the same language, they can share the same music. Many people learn and practice English by singing songs, and understanding American music can help you understand American people, their history and culture.

So, as the song says, “put a dime (10 cents) in the juke box (自动点唱机), baby. Let’s listen to the music!”

33. The article mainly tells us about ______.

A. how American music developed

B. when American music developed

C. what American music is

D. why American music is so popular

34. From the text we know that ______.

A. American music has spread all over the world
