第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分 50 分)
第一节:(共 15 小题;每小题 2 .5 分,满分 37.5 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
In Britain all children have to go to school between the ages of 5 and 16. In the US children must
go to school from the age of 6 to the ages between 14 and 16, depending on the state they live in.
Subjects
In England and Wales the subjects taught in schools are laid down by the National Curriculum,
which was introduced in 1988 and sets out in detail the subjects that children should study and the levels
of achievement they should reach by the ages of 7,11,14, and 16, when they are tested. The National
Curriculum does not apply to Scotland, where each school decides what subjects it will teach.
Examinations
At 16, students in England and Wales take GCSE examinations. These examinations are taken by
students of all levels of ability in any of a range of subjects, and may involve a final examination, an
assessment of work done during the two-year course, or both of these things. At 18 some students take
A-level examinations, usually in no more than three subjects. It is necessary to have A levels in order to
go to university.
In Scotland students take the SCE examinations. A year later, they can take examinations called
Highers, after which they can either go straight to a university or spend a further year at school and take
the Certificate of Sixth Year Studies. In Scotland the university system is different from that in England
and Wales.Courses usually last four years rather than three, and students study a large number of subjects
as part of their degree.
21.In which parts of the world are the subjects taught only decided by the nation?
A. England and Wales. B. England and Scotland.
C.US and Britain. D. Wales and Scotland.
22. Which of the following has nothing to do with students in Scotland?
A.GCSE. B.SCE.
C. Highers. D. The Certificate of Sixth Year Studies.
23. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. In the US, only local government can decide the subjects.
B. In Scotland, students can take either the SCE examinations or the Certificate of Sixth Year
Studies.
C. In England and Wales, one cannot go to university without A levels.
D.As for a 16-year-old student in England and Wales, he has to take both GCSE examinations and
a final examination.

B
How do you make yourself feel at home when you study abroad? My answer is to make friends.
Last year, I joined an international organization called AFS. It tries to connect people and their
different cultures. It attracted many international students. Earlier this month, we had our first
winter cultural camp.
First, we played some games to break the ice. The most exciting one was the Blinder Game. We
were separated into eight groups, each with three people. One of them must close his or her eyes to act
“blind". Then the other two must help him or her walk through obstacles and tasks.
In my group, I was the "blind" one. At first, I always wanted to stop for a moment. It seemed that
when I couldn't see anything, my fears came out. But my teammates gave me their hands and led me
every step of the way, I began to trust them. They led me during the obstacle course an I touched a dog
and even jumped on a trampoline(蹦床).
Through this game, I learned trust itself is a process. Even if they are strangers, you can still trust
them. I got closer to my teammates through this activity. Then we had a talent show. Students from
Spain, Latin America, Thailand and other countries performed their traditional dances. For me, I
chanted an ancient Chinese poem. It seemed like I was singing, but I actually wasn't. My friends were
amazed. I made many god friends. Although we came from different countries, we became close like a
family. It was really amazing!
24 . What does the underlined phrase “break the ice" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Care about others. B. Compete with others.
C. Make a hole in the ice. D. Make people feel relaxed with each other.
25. Which of the following is NOT true about the Blinder Game?
A. The “blind” one must close his or her eyes.
B. The “bind" one must do the work alone.
C.There are obstacles and tasks along the way.
D.Students need to work together to play the game.
26. What did the writer do in the talent show?
A. She performed a traditional dance. B. She performed a magic trick.
C. She chanted an ancient Chinese poem. D. She sang an ancient Chinese song.
27. What did the writer learn from the game?
A. Never give up. B. Learn to trust others.
C. Enjoy the moment. D. Leam from others.

Why do people lie? Many psychologists agree that lying can start from childhood. There are various
reasons why children make false statements. They usually tell untruthful stories to cover up the mistakes
that they have done in the past. Lying is also a way to avoid receiving punishments from parents. If
parents fail to reprimand their children for making up false stories, then there is a possibility that they
will continue to lie during their teenage years.
Teenagers lie because they want to be accepted by their friends. This is the main reason why they
create stories that are not true just to become attractive and acceptable to other people. In some cases,
teenagers tell untruthful statements to avoid criticisms from their families and friends.
As teenagers grow, lying becomes one of their habits. Their knowledge on making up untruthful
stories becomes more developed. People lie in workplaces if they fail to meet the deadlines(截止日
期) and if they fail to achieve and do their tasks efficiently. Some of the common lies made in
workplaces are getting sick and having emergencies at home. The danger involved in frequent lying is
when it becomes a character. Frequent lying causes the development of the condition known to doctors
as pathological(病态的) lying.
Pathological lying is a mental health condition, which is linked with individuals who have the strong
wish to tell untruthful statements. Patients suffering from it make up stories about everything and
anything. These individuals lie to meet the standards of other people who they want to please.
These patients cheat other people because it gives them an unexplained pleasure. One of the best
ways of treating pathological liars(撒谎者) is to help them tell true statements and stories at all times.
This may be hard for them, but as they are used to it, they will start to realize that they will be more
accepted by their families and other people if they stop themselves from making up false stories.
28.The underlined word "reprimand" in Paragraph 1 means "_____".
A.satisfy B.criticize C.discourage D.praise
29.Teenagers tell lies mainly because they want to _____.
A.avoid being punished B.fool other people
C.attract others' attention D.satisfy others
30.Pathological lying is a disease caused by _____.
A.mental health problems B.the habit of telling lies
C.the desires to become acceptable D.the wish to please others
31.What is the author's purpose of writing this passage?
A.To show some typical examples of pathological lying.
B.To predict the future consequences of pathological lying.
C.To analyze the causes and development of pathological lying.
6
D.To list a group of phenomena of pathological lying.
D
Sports play a key role in the physical and mental development of children. Although it’s great to see
a child succeed in one sport, it’s important to keep their activities in balance. Participation in multiple
sports enables children to acquire a knowledge of many movement skills. In addition to this, here are
some other good reasons why kids should be encouraged to play several sorts of sports.
Repetitive movements can overstress growing bodies which later on can lead to injuries. With multi-
sports, each sport works the body slightly differently. This will lead to fewer overuse injuries. Also, kids
who overspecialize in one sport may end up losing interest and eventually give up. Specializing in a
sport raises expectations and may put too much pressure on young kids. Having a variety of experiences
will keep children interested and motivated, and even make them enjoy sports without any pressure.
Multi-sports also allow kids to experience different roles. Being a goalkeeper in a football team is
very different from being a point guard in basketball. Being exposed to baseball develops better hand-
eye coordination (协调). Soccer develops better footwork (步法). Volleyball develops jumping and
hand-eye coordination. Martial arts develop strength, mobility, and discipline. Swimming develops full-
body coordination and strength. The list goes on and on! Participation in multiple sports broadens a
child’s developmental social, and situational experience. It opens up opportunities to become a better
competitor and a promising athlete — flexible and energetic.
Many sports superstars like Stephen Curry achieved their standing today by playing multiple sports.
Curry played basketball but he also played baseball, football, soccer, and everything else in a sports
buffet. What worked for Curry, experts say, could work for most of us.
Besides developing a wide range of sports skills, more importantly, multi-sports provide
opportunities for children to discover their liking. With the help of the right coaches, sports become fun,
inspiring kids’ interests. So if you can’t decide whether your child should focus on one sport or try some
different sports, I hope you can make a better decision now.
32.What will happen to kids if they do one sport repeatedly?
A.They can be more likely to get injured.
B.They can spare more time to study.
C.They can be skilled at the sport early.
D.They can stay more focused.
33.What’s implied about multi-sports in Paragraph 3?
A.They inspire kids’ sporting spirit.
B.They help kids develop their special talents.
C.They help promote kids’ all-round development.
7
D.They have much higher requirements for kids.
34.What does the author want to express in the last paragraph?
A.Children should turn their interests into professions.
B.Sports skills make kids more popular at school.
C.Parents should lower their expectations for kids.
D.Multi-sports help kids find their favorite sports.
35.What is the text mainly about?
A.How sports benefit kids. B.Why kids should try multi-sports.
C.What sports children should try. D.Why multi-sports are popular today.
