第二部分阅读理解（共二节，满分35分）

1. (共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
   阅读下面材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项符号涂黑。
   A
   Rene Descartes’ explanation of pain has long been acknowledged in medicine. He proposed that pain is a purely physical phenomenon — that tissue injury makes specific nerves send a signal to the brain, causing the mind to notice pain. The phenomenon, he said, is like pulling on a rope to ring a bell in the brain. It is hard to overstate how deeply fixed this account has become. In medicine, doctors see pain in Descartes’ terms as a physical process, a sign of tissue injury.
   The limitations of this explanation, however, have been apparent for some time, since people with obvious injuries sometimes report feeling no pain at all. Later, researchers proposed that Descartes’ model be replaced with what they called the gate control theory of pain. They argued that before pain signals reach the brain, they must first go through a gating mechanism in the spinal cord (脊髓). In some cases, this imaginary gate could simply stop pain signals from getting to the brain.
   Their most amazing suggestion was that what controlled the gate were not just signals from sensory nerves but also emotions and other “output” from the brain. They were saying that pulling on the rope may not necessarily make the bell ring. The bell itself (the mind) could stop it. This theory led to a great deal of research into how such factors as mood, gender, and beliefs influence the experience of pain. In a British study, for example, researchers measured pain threshold and tolerance levels in 53 ballet dancers and 53 university students by using a common measurement: after putting your hand in body-temperature water for two minutes to establish a baseline condition, you put your hand in a bowl of ice water and start a clock running. You mark the time when it begins to hurt: that is your pain threshold. Then you mark the time when it hurts too much to keep your hand in the water: that is your pain tolerance. The test is always stopped at 120 seconds, to prevent injury.
   The results were striking. On average female students reported pain at 16 seconds and pulled their hands out of the ice water at 37 seconds. Female dancers were almost three times as long on both counts. Men in both groups had a higher threshold and tolerance for pain, but the difference between male dancers and male non-dancers was nearly as large. What explains that difference? Probably it has something to do with the psychology of ballet dancers --- a group known for self-discipline, physical fitness, and competitiveness, as well as by a high rate of chronic (慢性) injury. Their driven personalities and competitive culture evidently accustom them to pain. Other studies along these lines have shown that outgoing people have greater pain tolerance and that, with training, one can reduce one’s sensitivity to pain.
   There is also striking evidence that very simple kinds of mental suggestion can have powerful effects on pain. In one study of 500 patients undergoing dental procedures, those who were given a placebo injection (安慰剂) and promised that it would relieve their pain had the least discomfort --- not only less than the patients who got a placebo and were told nothing but also less than the patients who got actual drug without any promise that it would work.
   Today it is abundantly evident that the brain is actively involved in the experience of pain and is no more bells on a string. Today every medical textbook teaches the gate control theory as fact. There’s a problem with it, though. It explains people who have injuries but feel no pain, but it doesn’t explain the reverse, which is far more common --- the millions of people who experience chronic pain, such as back pain, with no signs of injury whatsoever. So where does the pain come from? The rope and clapper are gone, but the bell is still ringing.
   21. The author implies that the reason why the gate control was “amazing” was that it _______.
   1. offered an extremely new and original explanation
   2. was just opposite to people’s everyday experiences
   3. was grounded in a ridiculous logic
   4. was so sensible that it should have been proposed centuries before

22. The author refers to “chronic back pain” as an example of something that is _______.

1. costly, because it troubles millions of people
2. puzzling, because it sometimes has no obvious cause
3. disappointing, because it does not improve with treatment
4. worrying, because it lies beyond the reach of medicine

23. From the passage we know that ________.

1. all the theories about pain are not correct
2. some data from the researches on pain is wrong
3. there has been no perfect theory about pain so far
4. one’s mood can’t affect the pain one feels
   B
   Going to school means learning new skills and facts in such subjects as reading, math, science, history, art or music. Teachers teach and students learn, and many scientists are interested in finding ways to improve both the teaching and learning processes.
   Some researchers, such as Sian Beilock and Susan Levine, are trying to learn about learning. Beilock and Levine are psychologists at the University of Chicago. Psychologists study the ways people think and behave, and these researchers want to know how a person’s thoughts and behavior are related.
   In a new study about the way kids learn math in elementary school, Beilock and Levine found a surprising relationship between what female teachers think and what female students learn: If a female teacher is uncomfortable with her own math skills, then her female students are more likely to believe that boys are better than girls at math.
   “If these girls keep getting math-anxious female teachers in later grades, it may create a snowball effect on their math achievement,” Levine told Science News. The study suggests that if these girls grow up believing that boys are better at math than girls are, then these girls may not do as well as they would have if they were more confident.
   Just as students find certain subjects to be difficult, teachers can find certain subjects to be difficult to learn—and teach. The subject of math can be particularly difficult for everyone. Researchers use the word “anxiety” to describe such feelings: anxiety is uneasiness or worry. (Many people, for example, have anxiety about going to the dentist because they’re worried about pain.)
   The new study found that when a teacher has anxiety about math, that feeling can influence how her female students feel about math. The study involved 65 girls, 52 boys and 17 first- and second-grade teachers in elementary schools in the Midwest. The students took math achievement tests at the beginning and end of the school year, and the researchers compared the scores.
   The researchers also gave the students tests to tell whether the students believed that a math superstar had to be a boy. Then the researchers turned to the teachers: To find out which teachers were anxious about math, the researchers asked the teachers how they felt at times when they came across math, such as when reading a sales receipt. A teacher who got nervous looking at the numbers on a sales receipt, for example, was probably anxious about math.
   Boys, on average, were unaffected by a teacher’s anxiety. On average, girls with math-anxious teachers scored lower on the end-of-the-year math tests than other girls in the study did. Plus, on the test showing whether someone thought a math superstar had to be a boy, 20 girls showed feeling that boys would be better at math—and all of these girls had been taught by female teachers who had math anxiety.
   According to surveys done before this one, college students who want to become elementary school teachers have the highest levels of anxiety about math. Plus, nine of every 10 elementary teachers are women, Levine said.
   This study was small, and it’s often difficult to see large patterns in small studies, David Geary told Science News. Geary, a psychologist at the University of Missouri in Columbia, studies how children learn math. “This is an interesting study, but the results need to be interpreted as preliminary and in need of replication with a larger sample,” Geary said. That means that the results are just showing something that might be happening, but more studies should be done. If more studies find the same trend as this one, then it’s possible that a teacher’s anxiety over math really is affecting her female students.
   24. The underlined part in paragraph 4 most probably means that girls may ______.
   A. end up learning math with anxiety from their teachers
   B. study the ways their female teachers behave
   C. have an influence on their math-anxious female teachers
   D. gain unexpected achievement in such subjects as math
   25. What is the finding of the new study?
   A. No male students were affected by their teachers’ anxiety.
   B. Almost all the girls got lower scores in the tests than the boys.
   C. About 30% of the girls thought boys are better at math than girls.
   D. Girls with math-anxious teachers all failed in the math tests.
   26. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
   A. 117 students and teachers took part in the new study.
   B. The researchers felt surprised at the findings of their study.
   C. Beilock and Levine are interested in teaching math.
   D. Men teachers are better at teaching math than women teachers.
   C
   Pete Richards was the loneliest man in town on the day that little Jean Grace opened the door of his shop．
   Pete's grandfather had owned the shop until his death．Then the shop became Pete's．The front window was full of beautiful old things: jewelry of a hundred years ago, gold and silver boxes, carved figures from China and Japan and other nations．
   On this winter afternoon, a child stood there, her face close to the window．With large and serious eyes, she studied each piece in the window．Then, looking pleased, she stepped back from the window and went into the shop．Pete himself stood behind the counter．His eyes were cold as he looked at the small girl．" Please," she began," would you let me look at the pretty string of blue beads in the window?" Pete took the string of blue beads from the window．The beads were beautiful against his hand as he held the necklace up for her to see．
   "They are just right," said the child as though she were alone with the beads．"Will you wrap them up in pretty paper for me, please? I've been looking for a really wonderful Christmas present for my sister．
   "How much money do you have?" asked Pete．
   She put a handful of pennies on the counter．"This is all I have," she explained simply．"I've been saving the money for my sister's present．"
   Pete looked at her, his eyes thoughtful．Then he carefully closed his hand over the price mark on the necklace so that she could not see it．How could he tell her the price? The happy look in her big blue eyes struck him like the pain of an old wound．
   "Just a minute," he said and went to the back of the shop．"What's your name?" he called out．He was very busy about something．
   "Jean Grace," answered the child．
   When Pete returned to the front of the shop, he held a package in his hand．It was v/rapped in pretty Christmas paper．
   "There you are," he said．"Don't lose it on the way home．"
   She smiled happily at him as she ran out of the door．Through the window he watched her go．He felt more alone than ever．
   Something about Jean Grace and her string of beads had made him feel once more the pain of his old grief．The child's hair was as yellow as the sunlight; her eyes were as blue as the sea．Once upon a time, Pete had loved a girl with hair of that same yellow and with eyes just as blue．And the necklace of blue stones had been meant for her．
   But one rainy night, a car had gone off the road and struck the girl．After she died, Pete felt that he had nothing left in the world except his grief．The blue eyes of Jean Grace brought him out of that world of self-pity and made him remember again all that he had lost．The pain of remembering was so great that Pete wanted to run away from the happy Christmas shoppers who came to look at his beautiful old things during the next ten days.
   When the last shopper had gone, late on Christmas Eve, The door opened and a young woman came in．Pete could not understand it, but he felt that he had seen her before．Her hair was sunlight yellow and her eyes were sea-blue．Without speaking, she put on the counter a package wrapped in pretty Christmas paper．When Pete opened the package, the string of blue beads lay again before him．
   Did this come from your shop?" she asked．
   Pete looked at her with eyes no longer cold．"Yes, it did," he said．
   "Are the stones real?"
   "Yes．They aren't the best turquoise（绿松石）, but they are real．"
   "Can you remember to whom you sold them?"
   "She was a small girl．Her name was Jean．She wanted them for her sister's Christmas present．"
   "How much were they?"
   "I can't tell you that," he said．"The seller never tells anyone else what a buyer pays．"
   "But Jean has never had more than a few pennies．How could she pay for them?"
   "She paid the biggest price one can ever pay," he said．
   For a moment there was no sound in the little shop．Then somewhere in the city, church bells began to ring．It was midnight and the beginning of another Christmas Day．
   "But why did you do it?" the girl asked．
   Pete put the package into her hands．
   "There is no one else to whom I can give a Christmas present," he said．"It is already Christmas morning．Will you let me take you to your home? I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas at your door．"
   And so, to the sound of many bells, Pete Richards and a girl whose name he had not yet learned walked out into the hope and happiness of a new Christmas Day.
   27. Pete did not say the price of the necklace because ______.
   A. the seller never tells anyone else what a buyer pays
   B. he priced the necklace too high
   C. he knew it would disappoint the girl
   D. he didn't want to sell the necklace
   28. The eyes of Jean Grace brought Pete out of his world of self-pity and he ______.
   A. tried to forget the memory of his sweetheart
   B. began to look at the world optimistically
   C. remembered his lost love
   D. no longer felt the pain in him
   29. By saying"She paid the biggest price one can ever pay," Pete meant that Jean Grace .
   1. gave the most money for the necklace B. gave all she had with her for the necklace

C. appreciated the value of the necklace D. wanted to have the best thing in the shop

30. At the end of the story we see that Pete _____ .

1. found another girl that he could trust B. met someone who truly loved him

Why are Americans Fascinated with Guns?

“More people in the USA can buy a gun and more people die by the gun than in any other country in the world.” This sentence appeared in an American newspaper in December 1980, after the murder in New Work of John Lennon, the British pop star. His murder shocked the American world, the huge majority be mugged(袭击并抢劫) sometime during their lives. In 1980, there were about 23000 murders in the USA.31

There are gun stores pretty much everywhere. And you can get a license easily. 32John Lenon’s murderer just walked into a gun store and bought a revolver—no questions asked. You can even buy guns by mail order.

Why are Americans so eager to own guns. 33Actually, Americans seem to have a long history of owning guns. Their forefathers were frontiersmen who had once used guns against outlaws, cattle rustlers, and the Indians. Today people want to use guns to protect themselves against gangsters, muggers and burglars. Another reason is that hunting is popular there.

34But it doesn’t help. There is the National Rifle Association. There are 3 million members, and they have friends with influence in Congress. They also have strong support from gun manufacturers.

And many Americans themselves would not like to give up their guns. It’s their rights as free people to own a gun. It was written into the Bill of Rights in 1790.

35New York is a wonderful city, but male New Yorkers between the age of 21 and 44 are more likely to be murdered than to die of any other cause. And murders take place mainly in poor districts. Most of the murders are gangsters killing gangsters. Sometimes people even get mugged in the center of Manhattan, in their own flats. Maybe this is why people have chains and peepholes on their doors, and sometimes a locked turnstiles and an armed security guard downstairs. But still they do not feel safe.

A. So Americans love to own guns.

B. So the result is violence and murder.

C. Self-defence might be one reason.

D. You can easily make a gun by yourself.[]

E. You don’t even have to say what you want it for.

F. Now many Americans want a new law to control the ownership of guns, especially handguns.

G. At the root of this violence is the gun, which Americans can buy and keep in their homes as easily as if it was a toy.

Dear Sara，

As we drove off from Columbia University, I wanted to write a letter to you to tell you all that is on my mind.

First, I want to tell you how36we are. Getting into Columbia is a real testament(证明) of what a great well-rounded student you are.

Whether it is getting the highest grade in Calculus, completing your elegant fashion design, successfully 38 your painted running shoes, or becoming one of the top speakers in Model United Nations, you have become a talented and accomplished young woman.

I 42 you to be inquisitive(好问的), 43 I also want to tell you: “Education is what you have 44 after all that is taught is forgotten.” What I mean by that is the materials taught isn’t as 45 as you gaining the ability to learn a new subject, and the ability to 46 a new problem. That is 47 what learning in college is about---this will be the period where you go from teacher-taught to master-inspired, after which you must become 48. So do take each subject 49, and even if what you learn isn’t critical for your life, the skills of learning will be something you 50forever.

Do you best in classes, but don’t let 51 get to you. Your mother and I have no expectation for your grades. If you graduate and learn something in your four years, we would feel happy. Your Columbia degree will take you far, even if you don’t graduate with honors. So please don’t give yourself pressure. During your last few months in high school, you were so happy because there was 52 pressure and college applications are finished. But in the past few weeks, we saw you are beginning to 53 (did you know you bite your nails when you are nervous?). Please don’t be worried. The only thing that 54 is that you learned. May your years at Columbia be the 55 of your life, and may you blossom into just what you dream to be.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

It was one o’clock in the morning. In the Rivesville town art gallery, a window opened and a man came in. His name was Harry Black, and he was a thief. It was dark in the art gallery, but Harry had a light. He looked across the room at a painting.

“There it is!” he said.

Harry moved quickly across the room. He stood and looked at the painting.

“A million dollars for this?” he thought. “I don’t understand it.”

But he took a knife from his coat. Then he took the painting very, very slowly from its frame. Harry went back across the room to the window, but he walked into a table. There was a beautiful blue glass vase on the table. It fell on the floor and broke into pieces. He ran across the piece of glass to the window.

Harry rented a room in Mrs. Allen’s house. He went quietly up to his room and closed the door. In his room, Harry took the painting from his bag. He wrapped it with a newspaper and put the newspaper under his bed.

In the morning, Janey Allen was putting old bottles into a box. On the TV, a reporter was at the Rivesville art gallery. He was talking about the lost painting and the broken glass vase. Janey glanced at the photo of the blue vase.

At that time Harry wasn’t in his room. He was talking on his telephone. Janey was looking for old newspapers. Every Friday morning, she took them from every room in the house. Then later, the newspaper recycling truck arrived.

Janey opened Harry’s door and looked into his room. She always took his old newspapers or bottles for recycling. She found a newspaper under Harry’s bed. She put the old newspapers into a black recycling box. Then she ran from the house and saw the truck. “Wait!” she said. And she quickly gave the box to one of the men.

Harry came back to the house. He saw the recycling truck, and he was Janey.

“The newspaper——！Oh, no!” Harry said.

It was so nice and considerate of you to have prepared us so many cuisines of British flavor! We were also deeply impressed by the comfortable accommodation you arranged for us! And the activities you organized not only broadened our horizons but also promoted our mutual understanding. We now have a deeper insight into British culture. Thanks again for all your efforts!

We hope you can come to China and visit us in the near future!

Best regards!

Yours sincerely

Li Hua

第二节：读后续写

One possible versions:

He chased after the truck. By coincidence, the traffic light in the nearest crossing turned red when the truck was on the point of going through it. The truck having to stop, Harry managed to get close to it and reached the black recycling box. Having held the most expensive newspaper tightly under his arms, he got into a taxi immediately, not noticing a thin piece of glass drop. However, Jenny witnessed what had happened. Driven by curiosity, she homed in on the piece of glass and remembered the photo of the blue vase, with her mouth wide open.（94）

Then Janey called the police on the phone. She informed the police of where the taxi was heading and the doubtful piece of glass she had just found. “It’s exactly from the broken vase in the art gallery, I bet.” The policemen set off in no time. After thirty minutes or so, Harry, the hateful thief was caught when hiding the precious painting in a hut. Eventually, the painting was returned to the art gallery and Harry was punished for his greed. （74）
