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、D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
It was almost four o’clock in the morning when the fire broke out.“We watched one window blown out,and then another,and heard people shouting,”says Stanley,21,a junior from Westfield State College in Massachusetts.Students were throwing ropes made from bed sheets out their windows,and a couple of them were trying to climb down.
Almost all the hotel’s 502 rooms were filled with college students from across the United States who were spending their holiday here in Acapulco,Mexico.As the smoke th
123456789下一页ickened,Moreno ran upstairs to where other Westfield students were rooming.“Some people had no idea what was going on,”he says.“I was shouting at the top of my voice.I made sure I hit every door.”At the same time,Stanley was downstairs helping people get through the smokefilled hall.There he joined forces with Nalewanski who had just come back from his own night out.
“Let’s go,”Nalewanski says.He and Stanley wet their shirts in the bathroom and wrapped them around their mouths and noses so they could breathe.Then they ran up the stairs.
Nalewanski and Stanley found Moreno on the fourth floor.They all ran upstairs and down the corridors(走廊)on every floor,hitting every door hard.
In the end,no one was seriously hurt.Even more unbelievable,all the Westfield students made it back to Massachusetts later that same day.
Westfield president Evan Dobelle says,“I have a great deal of pride in these young men and how they were able to react(反应)in such an emergency.”
36.What’s the best title for this passage?
A.College students have a terrible holiday
B.College students survive a big fire
C.Heroes:close call in a hotel fire
D.A big fire breaks out in a hotel in Mexico
答案 C
解析 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述在墨西哥的一家酒店遭遇大火的时候,几名大学生勇敢地跑上楼叫醒别人逃生的故事,故选C作文章的标题最好。
37.What do we learn about Stanley from the passage?
A.He is in his last year in college.
B.He is a very brave young man.
C.He was reading a book when the fire broke out.
D.He was the first one to find out there was a fire.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。发生大火时,Stanley不顾个人安危,英勇地帮助别人脱难,由此可推断他是一个很勇敢的人。
38.According to the passage,________might not have woken people up during the fire.
A.Evan Dobelle B.Nalewanski
C.Stanley D.Moreno
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。通读文章内容可知Nalewanski、Stanley、Moreno都参与了救人工作,而根据文章最后一段可知Evan Dobelle是Westfield State大学的校长,文章并没有提及他当时有没有在现场,故他有可能并没有参与救人。
39.The students helped people out through al
123456789下一页l of the following ways EXCEPT________.
A.helping people get through the hall
B.shouting loudly to warn people
C.hitting the doors to wake people up
D.making ropes for people to climb down
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。通读全文,可知他们并没有做绳子来让别人爬下去逃生。
B
The Internet is sometimes described as big computing power.But this power has to come from somewhere.Data centers(数据中心)are buildings full of servers.These powerful computers store,process,and move information.They make the Web work.
Tasks traditionally done with software,which is stored on a personal computer,are now increasingly offered as services on the Internet.Google Apps,for example,can work without the need for special software.Other companies,including Salesforce.cn and Microsoft,also offer software as a service.
Rich Miller is an editor of the Data Center Knowledge.He says that computing power needs another kind of power which also has to come from somewhere.Data centers need energy not only to operate their servers but to cool and protect their systems.
The Environmental Protection Agency says the United States has about ten thousand data centers.It also says that they use almost two percent of the country’s electricity.
The amount and cost of energy used by data centers is the subject of growing concern.Using wind power or some other renewable(可再生的)energy for data centers could help the situation.Another answer is to make servers more energyefficient.
Still another solution may come from virtualization.This lets one server work like several.A server usually runs a single operating system,like Linux or Windows.Virtualization lets both run at the same time.
Rich Miller at Datacenterknowledge.cn says the need for data centers will only increase as the Internet becomes more central to everyday life.
40.According to the first paragraph,all of the following statements about servers are true EXCEPT that________.
A.they are people in t
123456789下一页he data centers
B.they make the Web work
C.they send information to Internet users
D.they are powerful computers in the data centers
答案 A
解析 简单判断题。根据“These powerful computers store,
process,and move information.”可知servers在这里是指服务器,即功能很大的电脑,而不是指人。
41.Which of the following may NOT offer software as a service?
A.Google Apps.
B.Salesforce.cn.
C.Microsoft.
D.Datacenterknowledge.cn.
答案 D
解析 简单判断题。通读第二段,可知Google Apps、Salesforce.cn以及Microsoft都给用户提供软件服务,文章并没有说Datacenterknowledge.cn也为用户提供软件服务。
42.We can learn from the passage that________.
A.data centers often stop working
B.data centers use a lot of energy every day
C.there are about ten thousand data centers in the world
D.people no longer store software on their computers
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据第四段的“they use almost two percent of the country’s electricity.”以及后文提到的越来越多的人为数据中心消耗能量担忧可知其消耗能量很大。
43.In the writer’s opinion,which of the following may NOT be a good way to solve the energy problem?
A.By using wind power.
B.By making servers more energyefficient.
C.By letting one server work like several.
D.By asking people to rely on the Internet less.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“the need for data centers will only increase as the Internet becomes more central to everyday life.”可知人们只会更多地依赖于网络,故可推断作者不会认为人们减少对网络的依赖是解决能源问题的办法。
C
Do you know that girls are seven times more likely than boys to be unhappy and twice more likely to commit suicide(自杀)and that girls are three times more likely than boys to have a negative attitude?Twenty percent of the girls in the US between the ages of 12 and 17 drink alcohol(酒)and smoke cigarettes.
So what is mental(心理的)health?Mental health is how we think,feel,and act in order to face life’s problems.
A young girl’s mental health affects her daily life and future.Like physical health,mental health is important at every stage
123456789下一页of life.Caring for and protecting a young girl’s mental health is important to ensure that she grows up to become the best she can be.
Many children experience mental health problems that are painful and can be serious.Mental health problems affect at least one in every five young people at any given time.Unluckily,about two thirds of all young people with mental health problems are not getting the help they need.Mental health problems can lead to school failure,alcohol or other drug abuse(滥用),family violence,or even suicide.
There are many signs that may point to a possible mental health problem in a child or teenager.If you are worried about a child or have any questions,look for help at once.Talk to your doctor,a school teacher,or other mental health experts who are trained to know whether your child has a mental health problem.You can also call 18007892647 for a list of warning signs.
44.What is implied in the first paragraph?
A.More and more girls are committing suicide.
B.Boys are usually physically stronger than girls.
C.Girls are more likely to have mental health problems than boys.
D.Children in America are lacking in parental care.
答案 C
解析 理解推断题。根据第一段所问的几个问题,可推知女孩子比男孩子更容易产生心理健康问题。
45.In the author’s opinion,________.
A.mental health is more important than physical health
B.mental health is important no matter how old you are
C.people with mental health problems will never succeed
D.it’s easier for children to have mental health problems than adults
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段的“mental health is important at every stage of life.”可知在作者看来,不管人的年纪多少,心理健康都很重要。
46.According to the passage,which of the following people would most probably call 18007892647?
A.People who are sure they have mental health problems.
B.Children who have mental health problems and want help.
C.Parents who want to know whether their children are doin
123456789下一页g well at school.
D.Parents who want to know whether their children have mental health problems.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一句的“for a list of warning signs”可知拨打这个电话号码可以查询心理健康问题的一些征兆,故可推断那些想知道自己的孩子有没有心理健康问题的父母最有可能拨打这个电话号码。
47.The purpose of this passage is to________.
A.tell parents what to do if they find that their children have mental health problems
B.explain why so many children have mental health problems
C.tell people how bad it is to have mental health problems
D.ask parents to pay more attention to their children’s mental health
答案 D
解析 作者意图题。根据第四段的“Unluckily,about two thirds of all young people with mental health problems are not getting the help they need.”可知目前很多父母对孩子的心理健康问题不够重视,作者在文章中强调了心理健康的重要性以及心理健康问题的危害性,其目的是希望父母们能更加重视孩子们的心理健康。
