Part 3 Reading and Writing (第三部分读写) VI. Reading comprehension (共30分) A. Choose the best answer (6分) Newspapers and television news programs always seem to report about the bad things happening in society. However, there is a place where readers can find some good news. That place is a website called Happy News. Happy News was created by Byron Reese, who was the founder and CEO of Page Wise. Reese once said about Happy News, “Since the news media is giving people an unbalanced (偏颇的) view of the world, it’s our duty to make a difference. Traditional media often focuses on negative (消极的) stories, but our personal experience is usually different from that. Generally, most people are good and try to help each other. Most people are honest.” Not everyone agrees with Reese’s view, though. Many people think that news sources have a responsibility to provide news that is helpful to people. People need to know about issues or problems in today’s society. Then people are better able to make decisions about the things that influence their daily lives. According to this, Reese said, “Happy News is not trying to stop people from learning about issues or problems. Instead, it is just trying to provide a balanced picture of today’s world.” By the end of its first month online, Happy News had more than 70,000 readers. About 60 percent of them were women. Something else unique makes Happy News different from any of the other news or information websites that are on the Internet. Unlike many other websites, Happy News gets fan mail from its readers on a daily basis. A reader said in one of them, “From Happy News, I’ve realized that the world is not as bad of a place as I have been trained to believe.” In the world of Happy News, there is no bad or ugly, only good. 31. According to Reese, how is Happy News different from other news sources? A. It gives a balanced view of the world. B. It focuses on negative news stories. C. It tells Reese’s personal experience. D. It provides people with helpful news. 32. Some people don’t like Happy News probably because ________. A. Happy News doesn’t seem like traditional media B. Happy News doesn’t report international news C. Happy News doesn’t report important issues or problems D. Happy News doesn’t attract men readers 33. The underlined word “unique” in paragraph 4 probably means ________. A. special B. interesting C. strange D. awful 34. Which of the following is TRUE about Happy News after its first month online? A. It had about seven thousand readers. B. Most of its readers were women. C. Its readers sent in bad letters every day. D. Reese used it to create other websites. 35. Which of the following news items can probably be found on Happy News? A. Plastic pollution in the ocean. B. Luke Smith wins competition. C. 3 injured in serious car crash. D. The great Garden Bank robbery. 36. What can be the best title for the passage? A. How to Be Happy B. Why Women Like Happy News C. Newspapers vs. Online News D. Not the Normal News B. Choose the best answer (6分) What Do Astronauts Eat in Space? Before you go camping for over a week with your friends, you prepare plenty of food and all the stuff you need to cook and eat with. You keep the food properly during your whole trip. Astronauts basically do the ____37____ thing when they go to space. They prepare a variety of food.

Of course, there is an oven in the spaceship to heat food. Astronauts eat ____39____ meal (s) a day, just like people on the Earth. The meals provide them with enough nutrients (营养). There are many types of foods an astronaut can choose from, such as fruits, nuts, peanut butter, chicken, beef and seafood. To make meals taste better, astronauts use condiments (调味品), too. But all the condiments are liquid, ____40____ salt and pepper. This is because if astronauts sprinkled (撒) salt and pepper on their food in space, it would float away, make air ____41____ and even get into an astronaut’s eyes, mouth or nose! While having a space meal, what do astronauts have for a drink? They have a lot of ____42____, such as coffee, tea, orange juice and lemonade. Space food sounds delicious, doesn’t it?

But he didn’t know we were racing. After I passed him, I felt so happy and rode on. Soon I found that I had missed my turn and had to r____47____. Isn’t that what happens in life when we compete with others, trying to pass them or trying to show that we are more successful or more important? We think it is an exciting moment, so we spend our time and energy running after them and miss out on our own paths. The problem with an unhealthy race is that it’s a never ending cycle. There will always be s____48____ ahead of you in one way or another. What you should do is just run your own race and wish others well. Wherever you go, no matter what the weather is, always bring your own sunshine. D. Read the passage and answer the questions (12分) Read the passage and answer the questions: Eating Noodles Aloud! Japan is a nation that values good manners and the qualities of being quiet. Yet, when it comes to eating noodles, Japanese people can be the loudest in the world. According to lifestyle website Grapee.jp, slurping (发出啧啧声) when eating noodles is encouraged in Japanese culture. It’s believed that taking air into your mouth can help the noodles cool down and taste better. It’s also considered to be a way to show one’s enjoyment of the dish. Sometimes, just making the noise alone seems to make the noodles more enjoyable. It was not until a new expression—“noodle harassment (骚扰)”—came out on social media that Japanese people started to realize the problem. They found that the slurping noise was making some foreign visitors uncomfortable. As a response, Japanese instant noodle maker Nissin introduced a so-called noise-canceling fork. The fork looks like an electric toothbrush. It is connected wirelessly (无线地) to a smartphone. When the person using the fork starts to slurp, the fork will send a signal to the person’s phone. Then the phone will play a more pleasant sound over the slurping noise. But is it really necessary? Dining traditions and table manners do vary. In India, people eat with their hands. They think they build a connection with the food in this way. However, people who are used to eating with forks might find it unacceptable to get their hands covered in oil or sauce. But this eating method is part of India’s culture, just like Japan’s slurping is part of its own. “So, if you are eating noodles, please slurp,” wrote a Japanese food blogger (博主). “If anyone is unhappy with you doing that, just ignore them. They’re totally missing the point.” 49. Why do Japanese slurp when they are having noodles? ____________________________________________________________________________________ 50. When did Japanese people find that the slurping noise was making some foreign visitors uncomfortable? ____________________________________________________________________________________ 51. How can the electric fork cancel out the slurping noise? ____________________________________________________________________________________ 52. It is encouraged in Indian culture to eat with forks, isn’t it? ____________________________________________________________________________________ 53. What does the underlined phrase “missing the point” in the last sentence mean? _____________________________________________________________________________________ 54. What is your opinion on the food blogger’s advice? _____________________________________________________________________________________ VII. Writing (10分) 78.

In my room, there was never complete darkness. There was always a street light or some car lights. These lights made the cloth on the back of my chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I also saw the curtains seem to move while there was no wind. A very soft sound would be a hundred times l____61____ in the dark. My imagination would run wild and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still on my bed so that the “monster” would not disturb me.

After school, however, all the buses were lined up along the street. I was afraid that I would get on the w____63____ bus and be taken to a place I had never been to! Perhaps the worst fear I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being p____64____ was so important to me then.

According to the chart, we can see that flushing toilets and taking showers take up the largest part of daily water usage. Water is very important to us, so we must use it properly. Here are some suggestions for saving water. First, we should take shorter showers instead of taking a bath. Second, remember to turn off the tap when we brush our teeth. Third, we can reuse water in our daily life. For example, we can use the water for washing vegetables to water the plants. If everyone makes a small change, we can save a lot of water. 拓展 (20分) A.
