第二部分 阅读理解(满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
21.(6分)Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother. Expecting a whole day to relax,he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favorite TV talk show on her first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park,” he told his wife, “I’ll look after the kids, and you can go to visit your mom.”
Things started well,but just after eight o’clock, his three little “good kids”—Mike, Randy, and Alex—came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “Breakfast,Daddy.” When food had not appeared within thirty seconds, Randy began using his spoon on Alex’s head as if it were a drum. Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat (节拍). Mike chanted “Where’s my toast, where’s my toast” in the background. Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast. Mike wore Randy’s underwear on his head. Randy locked himself in the bathroom, while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes. Someone named “Not Me had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Brad knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o’clock, things were out of control. Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his color pencils. Randy, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room,but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Brad realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17, Brad called the daycare centre. “I suddenly have to go into work and my wife’s away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?” The answer was obviously “yes” because Brad was smiling. 1、What can we infer from Paragraph 1? A.Sue often visited her mother. B.Brad liked looking after the kids. C.Brad took his first day off in weeks.
D.Brad thought nursing kids was an easy thing. 2、What do the last but one paragraph suggest? A.Brad did read some books. B.The children conducted well. C.The children were under control. D.Brad didn’t perform what he wanted to. 3、What’s the passage mainly about? A.Brad’s happy day during Sue’s absence.
B.Brad’s taking good care of the three children. C.The mess in her home during Sue’s absence.
D.What happened to Sue during her visit to her mother.
22.(8分)Career criminals begin their antisocial behavior during their toddler (学步的儿童) years and may go on with a life of crime if their behavior isn’t challenged, scientists have discovered. While most children grow out of their bad behavior by adulthood, a study found those who had “callous unemotional (冷漠无情的) characteristics” could grow up to have problems with the law later in life. Behavior characteristics such as a lack of sympathy and lying in childhood could have an impact years on.
Luke Hyde, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, said, “These are signs for parents and doctors to watch out for, as they may signal more than just the terrible twos.” He said, “Parents both take care of their child and provide their child’s genes so it’s been difficult to know if we’re seeing that parenting causes callous unemotional behaviors, or if it is just a sign of the genes being passed to the child.”
The research also discovered that strict parenting is linked to the development of antisocial behavior. Scientists looked at 561 families in an adoption study that examined biological mothers’ antisocial behavior. The scientists found children of antisocial mothers were also more likely to exhibit the same behavior characteristics, despite having limited or no touch with them as they were adopted as babies.
“The really exciting take-home message from this study is that small, day-to-day positive interactions (互动) that parents have with their young children can make a huge difference in children’s development,’’ said Leslie Leve, a professor at the University of Oregon who co-led the data collection.
“Even when children have inherited (遗传) a very challenging set of behaviors, hearing ‘good job’ or receiving encouragement can help protect them from developing serious problems coming from their inherited difficulties,” he added. The study, worked on by scientists from the University of Michigan, Penn State University and the University of Oregon has been published in the American Journal of Psychiatry. Researchers will follow the group of children through early adolescence to determine if these behaviors still continue to exist from the toddler years. 1、What’s the main idea of the passage? A.Kids’ social behaviors are related to crime. B.Criminals begin their crimes during adolescence.
C.Antisocial behaviors of kids could be on their way to a life of crime. D.Warmhearted kids are more likely to be criminals in the future. 2、What conclusion might the scientists draw from the study? A.Antisocial behaviors might be inherited.
B.The genes decide kids’ antisocial behaviors. C.Antisocial behaviors have nothing to do with crimes.
D.Adopted babies surely have antisocial behaviors when they grow up. 3、What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Parenting is the main reason that causes kids’ antisocial behaviors.
B.What causes career criminals to begin their crimes is their parents’ characteristics. C.Leslie Leve has a doubtful attitude to adoptive mothers’ active interactions with kids. D.Inherited antisocial behaviors of kids can be lightened by positive parenting. 4、Why will researchers track kids’ process of growing? A.To make sure if kids’ behaviors will last. B.To make sure if praise will change kids. C.To determine if kids’ behaviors will be inherited. D.To determine if parents’ comfort will protect kids.
23.(8分) Can you trust your very first childhood memories? Maybe not, a new study suggests.
Past researches show that people's earliest memories typically form around 3 to 3. 5 years of age. But in a recent survey of more than 6,600 people, British scientists have found that 39 percent of participants claimed to have memories from age 2 or younger. These first memories are likely false, the researchers said. This was particularly the case for middle -aged and older adults.
For the study, researchers asked participants to describe their first memory and the age at which it occurred. Participants were told they had to be sure the memory was the one that had happened. For example, it shouldn't be based on a photograph, a family story or any source other than direct experiences. Then the researchers examined the content, language and descriptive details of these earliest memories and worked out the likely reasons why people would claim to have memories from an age when memories cannot form.
As many of these memories dated before the age of 2, this suggests they were not based on actual facts, but facts or knowledge about their babyhood or childhood from photographs or family stories. Often these false memories are fired by a part of an early experience, such as family relationships or feeling sad, the researchers explained.
\"We suggest that what a rememberer has in mind when recalling fictional early memories is …a mental representation consisting of remembered pieces of early experiences and some facts or knowledge about their own babyhood or childhood, \" study author Shania Kantar said in a journal news release, \"Additionally, further details may be unconsciously inferred or added. Such memory-like mental representations come~ over time, to be collectively experienced when they come to mind, so for the individual, they quite simply are memories, which particularly point to
babyhood. \"
\"Importantly, the person remembering them doesn't know this is fictional,\" study co-author Martin Conway said \"In fact, when people are told that their memories are false they often don't believe it. \" 1、What can we learn from a recent study? A.Memories form after the age of 3.
B.Participants are good at telling stories
C.Adults are likely to form false memories D.Earliest memories may play a trick on us 2、Which source did the researchers require for the earliest memories? A.A direct experience. C.A family photo.
B.A family story. D.A sad feeling.
3、What are these fictional early memories according to Kantar? A.They are repeated mental representations. B.They are a collection of early experiences. C.They are a combination of both facts and fictions. D.They are further details of remembered experiences. 4、Which part of a newspaper is this text probably taken from? A.Society.
B.Psychology.
C.Technology.
D.Health.
24.(8分) A Portland, Oregon man, Colin O’Brady, has become the first person to travel across Antarctica by himself with receiving any assistance.
O’Brady completed the 1,500 - kilometer trip on Wednesday. He crossed the continent in 54 days. Friends, family and other people followed his progress through messages and pictures he left on social media. The 33 - year – old O’Brady documented the trip on the social networking service Instagram.
He wrote Wednesday that he traveled the last 19 kilometers in one big, final push to the finish line. The distance took over one day to complete. O’Brady wrote, “While the last 32 hours were some of the most challenging hours of my life, they have quite honestly been some of the best moments I have ever experienced.”
The day before, he wrote that he was “in the zone” and thought he could make it to the end without stopping. “I’m listening to my body and taking care of the details to keep myself safe,” he wrote “I called home and talked to my mom, sister and wife — I promised them I will stop when I need to.”
Other people have traveled across Antarctica, but they all had some form of assistance. They either had better, more plentiful supplies or equipment that helped move them forward. In 2016, British explorer Henry Worsley’s died in his attempt to travel alone across Antarctica unassisted. Worsley’s friend Louis Rudd, also from Britain, is now attempting an unaided solo(单独的) journey in honor of Worsley. He was competing against O’Brady to be the first to
do it. O’Brady plans to stay on Antarctica until Rudd finishes his trip. 1、What do we know about Colin O’Brady? A.He was the first to travel across Antarctica. B.He succeeded in crossing Antarctica unaided. C.He covered only 19 kilometers in 54 days. D.He made many friends while taking the trip.
2、What does O’Brady think of his last day before reaching the finish line? A.Tiring but peaceful. C.Challenging but great.
B.Boring and unlucky. D.Worrying and dull.
3、What can be inferred in the last paragraph?
A.Some people have managed to travel across Antarctica. B.Worsley succeeded in traveling alone across Antarctica. C.Louis Rudd is now undertaking the journey with Worsley. D.O’ Brady will have a fierce competition with Louis Rudd. 4、Which of the following could be the best title for the text? A.The Antarctic Continent. C.Traveling In Antarctica.
B.The Impossible First. D.An Incomplete Journey.
The bus screamed to a stop in Nazareth, Israel. Five Australian backpackers boarded and struck up 25.(10分)a conversation with me. They asked typical travelers’ questions—where was I going and why was I traveling alone? My plan was to travel with a friend of a friend, I explained, but when I called her that morning, she didn’t pick up and I had no other way to reach her. My stomach was in knots, but I decided to head out anyway, thinking I might run into her if I traveled to Tiberius, where we had planned to go together.
“Why don’t you travel with us?” one of the backpackers offered. They were experienced adventurers who would work for a few months, save, then travel for as long as they could. Their current plan was to explore the Middle East and Europe in three months while working in London.
It seemed risky to travel with strangers, but my instinct said yes. For the next two weeks, I explored Israel with the backpackers and learned to trust my instincts in all types of new and interesting situations. When they hook a ride, I took the bus, but when they wanted to steal into the King David Hotel’s swimming pool, I led the way. The world opened up to me because I chose to travel alone. I joined complete strangers, who become close friends. Years later, one couple from the backpacking group even flew from Sydney to Phoenix to be in my wedding. The trip was such a special experience that it gave me confidence in all areas of my life. Since then, I’ve backpacked alone across South Africa,
sky-dived from 12,000 feet in New Zealand and even moved across the U.S. with no job lined up.
On my third day wandering in Israel with my new friends, I bumped into the woman I was supposed to meet. Though I was happy she was all right, I was grateful she hadn’t picked up the phone.
1、By “My stomach was in knots” (in paragraph 1), the author most likely means that she was ______. A.sick of riding on a bumpy bus C.upset about the sudden change
B.nervous of meeting strangers D.sorry about the impractical plan
2、Which of the following best describes the backpackers the author met? A.Courageous but disrespectful. C.Warmhearted and trustworthy.
B.Jobless and poorly educated. D.Homeless but lighthearted.
3、The author’s sixth sense told her that ______.
A.she would get along with the backpackers B.it might cause trouble to have a swim C.she ought to stay away from the backpackers D.it could add excitement to get a free ride 4、What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Most of the backpackers became the author’s lifelong friends. B.The author gathered the courage to be a fulltime backpack traveler. C.The woman missed the phone call with the purpose of traveling alone. D.The author considered it the best decision of her life to travel on her own.
