第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Many people turn to doctors or self－help books，but they ignore a powerful thing that could help them fight illnesses：their friends.

Researchers are only now starting to pay attention to the importance of friendship in health. A 10－year Australian study found that older people with a large circle of friends were 22 percent less likely to die during the study period than those with fewer friends. A large 2014 study showed an increase of nearly 60 percent in the risk for obesity among people whose friends gained weight. And last year, Harvard researchers reported that strong social ties (关系) could improve brain health as we age.

“In general，the role of friendship in our lives isn’t well realized,” said Rebecca, a professor at the University of North Carolina. “Friendship has a bigger effect on our psychological (心理的) health than family relationships.”

While many friendship studies are about the close relationships of women，some research shows that it can do good to men, too. In a six－year study of 736 middle－aged men，having friendships reduces the risk of heart attack. Only smoking was as important a risk factor (因素) as having little social support.

The exact reason why friendship has such a big effect isn't entirely clear. While friends can send a sick person to the hospital or pick up medicine，the advantages go well beyond physical help. Friendship clearly has a big psychological effect. “People with stronger friendships feel like there is someone they can turn to,” said Karen，a doctor. “The message of these studies is that friends make your life better.”

21. The three studies in Paragraph 2 show that ________．

1. old people need friends the most B. friends can help us lose weight
   C. social ties are connected to health D. more friends make us healthier
   22. Which of the following can be used here to replace the underlined word “obesity” in Para. 2?
   1. Fatness.B. Unhappiness. C. Excitement. D. Health.
      23. What do Rebecca’s words in Paragraph 3 mean?
      A. Friendship is more important to women than to men.
2. What people need most is a friend’s care.
3. Friendship is more important than family relationship.
4. The value of friendship hasn’t been fully understood.

24. What would be the best title of the text?

1. Friends Are the Best Medicine B. Friends Are as Important as a Family
   C. Having Good Friends Leads to a Better Life D. Friendship Clearly has a big physical help
   B

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child who learns to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time. If corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the differences between the language he uses and the language those around him. Little by little, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learn to do all the other things without being taught-to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle-compare their performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes.

But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them himself. We do it all for his act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.

If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine (daily) work? Our job should be to help the children when they tell us that they can’t find the way to get to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.

28. According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by ______.

A. listening to the advice of grown-ups.

B. asking adults many questions.

C. making mistakes and having them corrected.

D. doing as other people do by themselves.

29. Which of the following does the writer think teachers should NOT do?

A. Tell the children what is wrong with their work as often as possible。

B. Allow children to find out their mistakes.

C. Give children correct answers.

D. Let children judge their own work.

30. The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are ______.

A. different from learning other skills. B. the same as learning other skills.

C. more important than other skills. D. unnecessary skills.

31. Which of the following may serve as the best title of this passage?

A. Let Us Teachers Stop Working. B. Let Children Alone.

C. Let Children Correct Their Exercises.D. Let Children Learn by Themselves.

D

Tom was a clever boy, but his parents were poor, so he had to work in his spare time and during his holidays to pay for his education. In spite of this, he managed to get to the university, but it was so expensive to study there that during the holiday he found it necessary to get two jobs at the same time so as to make enough money to pay for his studies.

This summer he managed to get a job in a butcher’s shop (肉店)during the day-time, and another in a hospital at night. In the shop, he learnt to cut meat quite nicely, so the butcher often left him to do all the serving while he went to the back room to do the accounts (账目). In the hospital, on the other hand, he was, of course, allowed to do the simplest jobs, like helping to lift people and to carry them from one part of the hospital to another. Both at the butcher’s shop and at the hospital, Tom had to wear white clothes.

One evening at the hospital, Tom had to carry a woman from her bed to the place where she was to have an operation. The woman was already feeling frightened at the thought of the operation before he came to get her, but when she saw Tom, that finished her.

“No! No!” she cried. “Not my butcher! I won’t be operated on by my butcher!” and fainted away (昏厥).

32. Tom made enough money by ________.

A. studying in the university B. working in a butcher’s shop

C. doing two jobs D. cutting meat well

33. Tom was a student, but at the same time he was__________.

A. an assistant B. a manager and a doctor

C. a butcher and a doctor D. a manager

34. The woman patient recognized Tom because ____________.

A. he was wearing white clothes B. he had sold meat to her

C. he was now working in the hospital D. he was going to operate on her

35. The underlined sentence means that the sight of Tom _________.

A. plunged her into deep sorrow B. made her decide not to have an operation

C. broke her heart D. took all her strength and courage away

My dear schoolmates,

As we all know, a strong earthquake struck Indonesia. It is said that 5,000 people died and nearly 200,000 people were left homeless in the disaster. The injured continued to arrive at already overcrowded hospitals. So the survivors are in great need of water, tents, food, medicine and so on.
