I can still remember the day when Mr. Pearson asked me to wait after class for a “quick talk”. He was my science teacher. Although I had always been good at science, I had given up a bit with schoolwork by Grade 8. So that afternoon, Mr. Pearson sat down next to me and asked me what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. I told him I wanted to fix cars because I loved cars.
“What about making them?” he said.
“Making them?” I asked. “Like in a factory, do you mean?”
“No.” said Mr. Pearson. “I mean being an engineer and getting proper training to design cars—possibly the best cars in the world.”
“That sounds pretty cool,” I said. It was something I’d never thought I might be able to do.
“Well,” said Mr. Pearson, “I know that you are good enough at science to do that. But at the moment, you’re not really trying.”
“I just...find everything a bit boring,” I said.
“It is sometimes boring when you’re in Grade 8,” said Mr. Pearson. “But it’s like climbing a mountain. You can’t get up to the top until you’ve worked your way up from the bottom. It’s hard sometimes. The path is steep (陡的), and there’s no view. But get yourself up to the top, and you’ll see the most amazing views.”
Mr. Pearson was there for me after that, to explain things and help me with any problems. And every month or two, he asked me, “How are things on that mountain?” “No views yet,” I always said, “but I’m still going up.”
Mr. Pearson was right about the mountain. At last, I was interested in science and was really excellent at it.
29. What did the student want to do with the rest of his life at first?

30. How did the science teacher encourage the student?
A. He suggested taking more classes. B. He compared learning to making a car.
C. He said science was very easy. D. He said learning was like climbing a mountain.
31. Which of the following would the student probably agree with?

C. Mr. Pearson’s words are hard to understand. D. Mr. Pearson wants to be an engineer himself.

In 1077, he protected the city from a terrible flood. The people in Xuzhou were thankful to him and gave him some food as presents.

Do you yawn (打哈欠)? There are about 20 reasons that scientists think are possible for yawning after research. They do not know exactly why yawning happens, but they do know many facts about yawning.
We know that everyone yawns in the same way. First you open your mouth slowly. Your mouth stays open for about five seconds. You take in a lot of air and then push it out. Then you quickly close your mouth. We also know that yawning is contagious. When you see someone yawn, you yawn, too.
Many people say they yawn because they are bored or tired. That might be true. People do often yawn before they sleep and after they wake up. However, we know that people also yawn when they are excited or nervous. Olympic runners, for example, often yawn before a race. Why is that? In 2007, scientists found that a yawn can help people cool down.
Some scientists believe that yawning makes you notice things more quickly. When you yawn, you breathe deeply. You also stretch (伸展) the muscles (肌肉) in your face, mouth, and neck. Maybe this helps you to be quicker to notice things.
In some countries, people think that yawning is not nice. People put their hands over their mouths to cover a yawn. In other countries, people think that yawning is healthy. They think that opening the mouth very big can let good things in. When they breathe out, they think that bad things go out of the body with the air.
Scientists do not spend much time studying yawning. That is probably because yawning does not hurt. It is just something we do.
36. What does the underlined word “contagious” mean?
A. Able to spread quickly. B. Able to breathe easily.
C. Able to change easily. D. Able to sleep quickly.
37. Why do Olympic runners often yawn before a race?
A. They are too tired or too bored. B. A yawn can let good things in.
C. A yawn can help people cool down. D. A yawn can stretch the muscles in their faces.
38. What is the main idea of Paragraph 5?
A. Reasons for yawning. B. Advantages of yawning.
C. Disadvantages of yawning. D. Different ideas about yawning
39. What can we probably infer from the text?
A. People use different ways to yawn.
B. Scientists will do further research on yawning
C. It’s hard to notice things quickly while yawning.
D. Some scientists think that yawning is good for people.
40. What is the best structure of the text?
A. B.
C. D.
【答案】36. A 37. C 38. D 39. D 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要是针对打哈欠这一现象科学家进行了研究,文中具体介绍了科学家发现的一些事实。
【36题详解】
词义猜测题。根据下文“When you see someone yawn, you yawn, too.”可知,当你看到别人打哈欠时,你也会打哈欠,说明打哈欠会传染。故选A。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。根据“In 2007, scientists found that a yawn can help a warm brain cool down. ”可知,打哈欠可以帮助人们冷静下来。故选C。
【38题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“In some countries, people think that yawning is not nice. People put their hands over their mouths to cover a yawn. In other countries, people think that yawning is healthy. ”可知,第五段介绍了两种不同的观点,一种认为打哈欠是不礼貌的,一种认为打哈欠对身体有好处。故选项D“关于打哈欠的不同观点”符合题意。故选D。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Scientists do not spend much time studying yawning. That is probably because yawning does not hurt. It is just something we do.”可知,最后一段科学家不会花费大量的时间研究打哈欠这个现象,因为这个对身体没什么坏处,故选项D“一些科学家认为打哈欠对人体有好处”符合题意。故选D。
【40题详解】
篇章结构题。通读全文可知,第一段总体介绍打哈欠,中间几个段落讲述了打哈欠的一些事实,最后一段对打哈欠做出总结,故为总分总的结构,故选B。
第二节阅读表达 (共5题; 每题2分,满分 10分)
阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。
When an exam is coming, some students study alone while others study in groups to prepare for it. Everyone is different and unique, because everyone does not learn in the same way.
When you study alone, you may lock yourself in your room with classical music, a cup of tea and so on to make you comfortable. Besides, nobody is moving around or talking near you, which gives you a quiet learning environment. So it is easier for you to focus on exactly what you need to learn.
When you study in a group, it helps you keep the study plan. Besides, you are likely to remember more information. This is because you can put the information in your own words rather than reading from a textbook. It’s very similar to teaching the others in your group, which leads to keeping the information better.
After looking at the advantages of studying alone or in a group, it can be difficult to tell which is better. But Keith Sawyer, a psychology professor, prefers group studying. He thinks it can provide a way for students to make the notes of their own.
Professor Sawyer advises something students must do to get better group studying. First, limit the number of people and a good number is 3 to 5 students. Second, get yourself prepared with notes, questions and topics to look over. Nobody likes wasting time and waiting for you. Finally, pick a place, date and time for when your group will get together to study.
41. What’s the advantage of studying alone?
______________________________________________
42. How does it help you when you study in a group?

43. Why does Professor Sawyer prefer group studying?

I can still remember the day when Mr. Pearson asked me to wait after class for a “quick talk”. He was my science teacher. Although I had always been good at science, I had given up a bit with schoolwork by Grade 8. So that afternoon, Mr. Pearson sat down next to me and asked me what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. I told him I wanted to fix cars because I loved cars.
“What about making them?” he said.
“Making them?” I asked. “Like in a factory, do you mean?”
“No.” said Mr. Pearson. “I mean being an engineer and getting proper training to design cars—possibly the best cars in the world.”
“That sounds pretty cool,” I said. It was something I’d never thought I might be able to do.
“Well,” said Mr. Pearson, “I know that you are good enough at science to do that. But at the moment, you’re not really trying.”
“I just...find everything a bit boring,” I said.
“It is sometimes boring when you’re in Grade 8,” said Mr. Pearson. “But it’s like climbing a mountain. You can’t get up to the top until you’ve worked your way up from the bottom. It’s hard sometimes. The path is steep (陡的), and there’s no view. But get yourself up to the top, and you’ll see the most amazing views.”
Mr. Pearson was there for me after that, to explain things and help me with any problems. And every month or two, he asked me, “How are things on that mountain?” “No views yet,” I always said, “but I’m still going up.”
Mr. Pearson was right about the mountain. At last, I was interested in science and was really excellent at it.
29. What did the student want to do with the rest of his life at first?
A. Fix cars. B. Make cars. C. Design cars. D. Teach science.
30. How did the science teacher encourage the student?
A. He suggested taking more classes. B. He compared learning to making a car.
C. He said science was very easy. D. He said learning was like climbing a mountain.
31. Which of the following would the student probably agree with?
A. Mr. Pearson likes travelling. B. Mr. Pearson is a really helpful teacher.
C. Mr. Pearson’s words are hard to understand. D. Mr. Pearson wants to be an engineer himself.

Su Shi, also known as Su Dongpo, was an outstanding Chinese poet, who lived during the Song Dynasty from 1037 to 1101.
Su Shi was born into a well-known family in Meishan, Sichuan Province. His father and brother were both great poets. Su Shi showed great talent from a young age and was known for his skills in handwriting and painting. At the age of 20, Su Shi successfully passed the imperial examination (科举考试) and began his official career (政治生涯). Throughout his life, Su held a number of different government positions across China. However, his different opinions often got him into trouble because of disagreements at court. He was exiled (流放) three times. In 1079, Su Shi was even sent to prison. Although he got out of prison at last, he was placed under strict control for the rest of his life.
Though he met a lot of difficulties, Su Shi’s literary (文学) talent continued to shine, and he produced a great number of poetic works during his lifetime. In 1080, he was exiled to Huangzhou. During his exile, he found peace in nature and produced some of his best works. The famous poem The Charm of a Maiden Singer The Red Cliff was one of them. Su Shi’s talent was beyond poetry, as he was also a great pros (散文) writer. In addition, his collection of short stories shows his humour and wisdom.
It was not only in the literary field that Su Shi was highly praised. As an official, he won the love and support of the people. During his service, he did a lot for the people. In 1077, he protected the city from a terrible flood. The people in Xuzhou were thankful to him and gave him some food as presents.
Although Su Shi’s “life” was filled with both achievements and troubles, he is remembered as one of the greatest people in Chinese history, and his creative genius and strong spirit continue to influence and guide people around China.
32. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. Su Shi’s difficult official career. B. Su Shi’s interesting life experiences.
C. Su Shi’s achievements in literary field. D. Su Shi’s most important literary works.

Do you yawn (打哈欠)? There are about 20 reasons that scientists think are possible for yawning after research. They do not know exactly why yawning happens, but they do know many facts about yawning.
We know that everyone yawns in the same way. First you open your mouth slowly. Your mouth stays open for about five seconds. You take in a lot of air and then push it out. Then you quickly close your mouth. We also know that yawning is contagious. When you see someone yawn, you yawn, too.
Many people say they yawn because they are bored or tired. That might be true. People do often yawn before they sleep and after they wake up. However, we know that people also yawn when they are excited or nervous. Olympic runners, for example, often yawn before a race. Why is that? In 2007, scientists found that a yawn can help people cool down.
Some scientists believe that yawning makes you notice things more quickly. When you yawn, you breathe deeply. You also stretch (伸展) the muscles (肌肉) in your face, mouth, and neck. Maybe this helps you to be quicker to notice things.
In some countries, people think that yawning is not nice. People put their hands over their mouths to cover a yawn. In other countries, people think that yawning is healthy. They think that opening the mouth very big can let good things in. When they breathe out, they think that bad things go out of the body with the air.
Scientists do not spend much time studying yawning. That is probably because yawning does not hurt. It is just something we do.
36 What does the underlined word “contagious” mean?
A. Able to spread quickly. B. Able to breathe easily.
C. Able to change easily. D. Able to sleep quickly.
37. Why do Olympic runners often yawn before a race?
A. They are too tired or too bored. B. A yawn can let good things in.
C. A yawn can help people cool down. D. A yawn can stretch the muscles in their faces.
38. What is the main idea of Paragraph 5?
A. Reasons for yawning. B. Advantages of yawning.
C. Disadvantages of yawning. D. Different ideas about yawning
39. What can we probably infer from the text?
A. People use different ways to yawn.
B. Scientists will do further research on yawning
C. It’s hard to notice things quickly while yawning.
D. Some scientists think that yawning is good for people.
40. What is the best structure of the text?
A. B.
C. D.
第二节阅读表达 (共5题; 每题2分,满分 10分)
阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。
When an exam is coming some students study alone while others study in groups to prepare for it. Everyone is different and unique, because everyone does not learn in the same way.
When you study alone, you may lock yourself in your room with classical music, a cup of tea and so on to make you comfortable. Besides, nobody is moving around or talking near you, which gives you a quiet learning environment. So it is easier for you to focus on exactly what you need to learn.
When you study in a group, it helps you keep the study plan. Besides, you are likely to remember more information. This is because you can put the information in your own words rather than reading from a textbook. It’s very similar to teaching the others in your group, which leads to keeping the information better.
After looking at the advantages of studying alone or in a group, it can be difficult to tell which is better. But Keith Sawyer, a psychology professor, prefers group studying. He thinks it can provide a way for students to make the notes of their own.
Professor Sawyer advises something students must do to get better group studying. First, limit the number of people and a good number is 3 to 5 students. Second, get yourself prepared with notes, questions and topics to look over. Nobody likes wasting time and waiting for you. Finally, pick a place, date and time for when your group will get together to study.
