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。
A
Our tiny boat was ploughing through (费力穿过) the waves across the Indian Ocean and I was absolutely freezing. The further we got from the shelter of the land, the more I thought how foolish I'd been to come along on this trip.
The pilot of the boat looked almost 60 but, perhaps because of a lifetime on the open sea in the hot sun, was very fit and strong. I was wondering how he managed to find his way. To me, it seemed difficult enough to navigate a boat without any electronic equipment even on a sunny day.
So at least we were safe. But this was not what we had come along for. A look at the other divers' faces suggested that now they were also doubtful that we'd ever get the chance to see a whale shark — these weather conditions were totally unsuitable for diving! None of us spoke. It seemed too much of an effort. Then suddenly the boatman stopped the engine. He said a few words in his own language to the diving instructor, who immediately jumped up from his seat and told us to get ready to dive.
When I jumped into the grey sea, I was sure I wouldn't see anything. But then ... there it was! An enormous whale shark, slowly swimming through the water. I couldn't believe my eyes — my first whale shark! I hardly dared breathe — I was afraid my streams of bubbles (气泡) might scare the huge creature away. And the other divers were equally awed. Slowly we approached this huge animal. It was swimming quite slowly and we were able to swim with it, looking at the beautiful markings on its back. I was still holding my breath, telling myself that this huge fish was harmless! Then I reached out and touched it, stroking (轻抚) its thick skin. It was amazing how this giant suddenly gained speed — we watched it as it swam away from us, and a few moments later it was gone.
21. While riding a tiny boat across the Indian Ocean, the author _____. A. volunteered to act as a pilot B. felt regret about his decision C. enjoyed the beautiful sunshine D. talked with other people happily 22. The author probably wanted to know how the boatman _____. A. kept fit in his spare time C. navigated his boat at sea
B. spent his life on the boat D. communicated with others
23. What was the purpose of the author's trip? A. To see a whale shark.
B. To learn how to dive.
C. To swim the Indian Ocean. D. To save underwater creatures.
24. How did the author feel after he jumped into the sea? A. Rather anxious and angry. C. Doubtful and disappointed.
B. A little scared but excited. D. A bit tired but later relaxed. B
History tells us that footwear was one of the first things ancient people learned to make. Footwear helped them across rocky paths or hot sands without injuring themselves. The earliest footwear we know of was simply a piece of plaited (编织的) grass or leather tied to the feet.
The ancient Egyptians seem to have invented the first footwear with a firm sole (鞋底) — sandals. Egyptian royalty usually wore sandals that had a different style from those with
lesser status (身份), while slaves were not allowed to wear anything on their feet. The sandal is still the basic form of footwear in many countries, particularly those with a hot climate, whereas in cold climates, an entirely different type of shoe appeared — the moccasin — a slipper-shaped shoe made of soft but strong leather.
The Greeks were the first to develop shoes with heels (鞋跟). Then, in the Middle Ages, shoes with long points at the toe became very chic for the nobility. These shoes were often very difficult to wear. Other trends followed, with square-toed shoes, wide shoes, and even shoes that could make a woman
stand two feet taller. Not surprisingly, these sometimes led to accidents. Even today, fashion rather than comfort often leads to the kind of shoes women wear.
Mechanical shoemaking appeared in the 1800s in North America. Until then, shoes had been made with the same kinds of hand tools used by the ancient Egyptians. And in 1858,
a machine was invented that could stitch (缝合) the sole of a shoe to the upper part. Now it was possible to make shoes that were shaped to fit either the left or right foot. Toward the end of the 1800s came a new type of shoe that was specifically designed for sports — the sneaker — and it soon become an all-time favorite.
25. What did shoes often show in ancient times?
A. The rich resources. B. People's different beliefs. C. People's status in society. D. The changeable climates. 26. What does the underlined word “chic” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Valuable.
B. Convenient. D. Comfortable.
C. Fashionable.
27. Before mechanical shoemaking appeared, _____. A. shoes were often very difficult for people to wear B. all the shoe patterns made by the Greeks were the same C. the only function of footwear was to protect people's feet D. people wore the same-shaped shoes on their two feet 28. How does the text mainly develop? A. By providing examples.
B. By making comparisons.
D. By following the order of importance.
C. By following the order of time.

The coffee giant Starbucks is once again a popular search on the internet, and there are people who think that coffee is now replacing tea as the most popular drink in China. But, is that really so?
Starbucks opened its biggest café shop in the world in Shanghai this Wednesday. The coffee giant says this will not only give customers the usual great coffee, but also give them the full experience of how the magical coffee beans get roasted to become those wonderful drops that make up your favorite drinks. It is like the Willy Wonka factory for coffee lovers. The company is expanding aggressively, and opening a new store every 15 hours on average in China.
China has very rich and splendid tea culture. What seems like the most enjoyable thing is to drink a cup of tea on a quiet day that is full of \"Zen\"(禅)spirit. But the fast-pace of life sometimes doesn't allow that. So there are tea shop owners locating their shops in the downtown area in order to provide quick service for customers. Take Heytea for example. It's one of the most highly rated tea shops and it has now opened several new branches in the business areas of big cities like Beijing. Waiting
in lines for longer than one hour is common. China's consumption of tea is immeasurable. According to a research of USC Institute, in China, the average person consumes 400 cups of tea per year.
So it is unlikely that coffee can replace tea as the country's main drink any time soon. The expanding coffee shops are not there to replace tea, but to provide people with another choice that they can use to enjoy life.
29. Which of the following statements is correct about Starbucks?
A. The shop opened in Shanghai simply works as a drinking place. B. Starbucks can only be seen in the downtown area of a city. C. Starbucks holds a certain share of Chinese drinking market. D. Starbucks supplies the world with the best-tasting coffee.
30. What can be concluded from the third paragraph?
A. Tea culture is rooted in the hearts of Chinese citizens.
B. The enjoyment of tea drinking can only be experienced in a quiet place. C. Tea consumption holds the largest share of world drinking market.
D. The fast pace of modern life makes tea drinking no longer pleasant in China. 31. What is the author’s attitude to coffee and tea in China?
A. Tea may bring more pleasure to Chinese citizens’ life. B. Coffee will replace tea in Chinese drinking market. C. Both coffee and tea will make people’s life enjoyable. D. Coffee and tea gain the same popularity in China.

Children think other youngsters who wear glasses look smarter and are more honest than those who don't wear glasses, according to a U.S. study of 80 children. In addition, the researchers found that children seldom judge peers (同龄人) wearing glasses in terms of appearance.
The study included 42 girls and 38 boys, aged 6 to 10. Of those, 30 wore glasses, 34 had at least one classmate with glasses, and almost two-thirds had at least one parent who wore glasses. The study participants were shown 24 pairs of pictures of
children. The children in each pair of pictures differed by gender (性别) and race, and each pair of pictures included one child with glasses and one child without glasses. The children were asked a series of questions about each pair of photos. About two-thirds said children wearing glasses looked smarter than those without glasses, and 57 percent said children wearing glasses looked more honest.
These findings may help comfort children as they're fitted for their first pair of glasses, lead author Jeffrey Walline, an assistant professor of optometry (视力测试法) at Ohio State University, suggested in a prepared statement. \"If the impression of looking smarter will appeal to a child, I would use that information and tell the child it is based on research. Most kids getting glasses for the first time are sensitive about how they're going to look. Some kids simply refuse to wear glasses, because they think they'll look ugly,\" Walline said.
32. What impression may a youngster wearing a pair of glasses leave on his classmate?
A. Ugly.
B. Easygoing.
C. Dynamic.
D. Intelligent.
33. Which of the following is correct about the participants of the study?
A. Most of them wore glasses at an early age.
B. Most of them had one family member wearing glasses. C. They observed children of different ages in each picture. D. They were required to answer the same questions.
34. Why may the result of the study comfort the children first wearing glasses?
A. Because the study is carried out in a scientific way.
B. Because it convinces them of the necessity of wearing glasses. C. Because it may help remove all their initial worries. D. Because the children do care about being smarter. 35. What is the best title of this article?
A. Wearing Glasses, Smarter Looking. B. Wearing Glasses, More Intelligent.
C. Concerns on Wearing Glasses. D. Wearing Glasses, a New Trend.

Do People Need Small Talk to Be Happy?
Psychologists (心理学家）have long said that connecting with others is an important part of happiness, but just how much conversation we require is under examination. In one study， researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of their conversation related with happiness.
36 . Scientists believe that small talk could promote bonding. Late last year, Princeton researchers reported that small talk keeps closeness with loved ones, and isn’t merely the stuff of awkward exchanges with strangers.
Still, chatting with strangers could brighten your morning. In a series of experiments, psychologists gave Chicago passengers different directions about whether to talk with fellow passengers一something they typically avoided. 37 . None of the chatters reported being rejected.
Small talk can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at，made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas (服务员）reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction (交易）. 38 One report found that when volunteers broke the silence to chat with gallery goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected to the exhibit than those who were not approached.
39 .In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by researchers had trouble getting a conversation rolling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure (透露）.But people who were considered “curious” needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges. 40 .
A. The same is true of gallery goers.
B. They found that small talk is related with happiness C. But don’t play down small talk just yet..
D. Of course, some people are better than others at turning small talk into something
bigger.
E. A “curious mindset”，the author concluded, can lead to “positive social interactions”.
F. Making small talk is an important skill for all the social situations. G. Those told to chat with others reported a more pleasant journey. 第三部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）
