Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension

Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are two sections in it.

Section 1

Directions: There are 4 passages in this section. After each passage there are 5 questions. Each question is followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the best answers to the questions and mark the corresponding letters on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Itzhak Perlman is one of the finest violinists alive today. Several years ago, Perlman agreed to attend a charity (慈善) reception after one of his concerts. At the reception one guest said, "Mr. Perlman, you were truly amazing tonight. " Perlman smiled and thanked him graciously. The man continued, "I have never heard anyone play the violin as well as you." Perlman smiled again but said nothing, and the man continued, "You know, Mr. Perlman, I would give my whole life to be able to play the violin like you did tonight." Perlman smiled once more and said, "I have."

That is the difference. While some of us sit around thinking, I would give my whole life to be able to do that, or, I hope that happens to me one day, people like Perlman are getting the job done. They are giving their whole lives to the fulfilment of their dreams.

All men and women have dreams, but only some achieve their dreams. Why is this? The reason is that some people dream and wait for their dreams to come true. They look at others, whom they consider fortunate or lucky, and think, I hope that happens to me one day! Others devote themselves to excellence and go out onto the stage of life chasing their dreams, living life passionately. They make their dreams come true.

26、 What does the underlined word "graciously" (in Para. 1 ) most probably mean? ______

A. Comfortably.      B. Humorously.       C. Gratefully.         D. Politely.

27、 Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 1? ______

A. The guest believed that he could play the violin as well as Perlman.

B. Perlman was invited to attend a charity reception after his concert.

C. Perlman was invited to play the violin after the charity reception.

D. The guest did not really enjoy Perlman's concert.

28、 According to the author, why do some people achieve their dreams? ______

A. They wait for their dreams to come true.

B. They are considered fortunate or lucky.

C. They hope their dreams will come true.

D. They give their lives to their dreams.

29、 Why does the author tell the story about Perlman? ______

A. Because Perlman made his dream come true.

B. Because Perlman was very kind and gracious.

C. Because Perlman always had his own dreams.

D. Because Perlman smiled and thanked the guest.

30、 Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? ______

A. A Charity Reception                     B. Dream Differently

C. Live Passionately                        D. A Fine Violinist

For many people, the most exciting way to shop is at a street market. Here are five world-famous markets.

The Grand Bazaar in Turkey is more than 500 years old and it has more than four thousand shops under one roof. You can buy almost anything here, but the most popular items for tourists are the beautiful carpets.

In Asia, the most famous market is perhaps in Thailand, a place called Damonen Saduak. From six in the morning to midday, every day, people sell fresh fruit and vegetables from their boats.

Many Italians say the Campo dei Fiori in Rome is the most beautiful square in the world. It's the home of a colorful flower, fruit and vegetable market, open from seven o'clock in the morning to midday every day except Sunday. It is a lively place to meet friends and to have a meal.

Every year, thousands of people travel to Germany to visit the famous Christmas Markets. The old town of Nürnberg has the biggest market, open from the end of November until Christmas. Here people can buy toys, hand-made gifts and Christmas decorations.

One of the world's most unusual markets is in Mexico City: at the Sonara Market. As well as toys and birds, you can buy herbs and natural medicines which (they say) can help with anything—from problems at work to problems with your marriage!

During the COVID-19 outbreak, many children were isolated at home. They often felt very unhappy as their normal lives were suddenly interrupted and completely changed.

Sproutel Purrble came to save some of these children out of trouble. An interactive(互动的) plush(毛绒) toy equipped with seven sensors(传感器) that respond to touch, Purrble's able-to-touch heartbeat speeds up to 135 beats per minute when it senses somebody is playing with it. Kids can then comfort their companion with gentle touch and soft voice, slowing Purrble's quick heartbeat to a low continuous sound—calming themselves as well in the process.

Developed through using research from the Committee for Children, a nonprofit and global leader on social-emotional learning, the device aims to help children learn to manage their emotions, such as keeping them calm.

Early research shows that Purrble is doing just that: in a study with 20 families, 19 parents reported that the toy helped their kids calm down when they needed to. "I grew up with a long-time illness as a child and would have loved to have this," says Aaron Horowits,head of Sproutel, the company which designed the toy.

36、 What is Sproutel Purrble? ______

A. A sensor.         B. A kid.             C. An illness.         D. A toy.

37、 What enables Purrble to calm kids down? ______

A. Feeling isolated.                         B. Having lots of plush.

C. Responding to touch.                     D. Making different sounds.

38、 How do kids comfort Purrble? ______

A. Equipping it with sensors.                B. Responding to its sound.

C. Touching it gently.                       D. Increasing its heartbeat.

39、 Which of the following designed the device? ______

A. Sproutel.                                 B. A famous researcher.

C. Aaron Horowits.                          D. Committee for Children.

40、 Which of the following best describes most parents' attitude to Purrble? ______

A. Unclear.                                 B. Critical.

C. Positive.                                 D. Negative.

English is spoken by hundreds of millions of people worldwide, but do the development of translation technology and "mixed" languages damage its status(地位)?

For how much longer will English qualify as the "world's favorite language"? The World Economic Organization estimates that about 1.5 billion people around the world speak it—but fewer than 400 million have it as their first language.

English is the world' s favorite lingua franca—the language people are most likely to turn to when they don't share a first language. Imagine, for example, a Russian speaker who speaks no French in conversation with a French speaker who speaks no Russian. The chances are that they would use English.

Five years ago, perhaps. But not any more. Thanks to advances in computer translation and voice-recognition technology, they can each speak their own language, and hear what the other speaker is saying, which is machine-translated in real time.

So English's days as the world's top global language may be numbered. That is: the computers are coming, and they are winning.

So is the future of English at risk? I don't think so, although its global influence may become less over the coming decades. Like all languages, it is constantly changing and adapting (适应) to new needs. Until recently, "text" and "friend" were nouns. Now, they are also verbs, as in "I'll text you," or "Why don't you friend me?"

41、 How many people are estimated to speak English as their first language? ______

A. Less than 1.5 billion.

B. Less than 400 million.

C. More than 1.5 billion.

D. More than 400 million.

42、What language will most probably be used between a Russian and a Frenchman without translation technology? ______

A. English.                                 B. French.

C. Russian.                                 D. A mixed language.

43、 What is a lingua franca? ______

A. A language spoken by millions of people.

B. A language understood only by machines.

C. A language used in computer translation technology.

D. A language spoken by people who don' t share a first language.

44、 Which of the following is made possible by machine-translation? ______

A. Communicating across different languages.

B. Identifying speakers through voice recognition.

C. Using English as the world' s favorite language.

D. Replacing English by computer language.

45、 What does the writer think of the future of the English language? ______

A. It is extremely promising.

B. It is still full of hope.

C. It is uncertain.

D. It is at risk.

Section 2

Directions: There is 1 passage in this section.  Read the passage and complete the outline below it(No. 46 to No. 50). You should write your answers briefly (in no more than three words) on the Answer Sheet correspondingly.

Charles Darwin(1809-1882) was one of the most influential scientists of all time. His theory of evolution by natural selection explained how life on Earth developed, and is the basic concept upon which the life sciences are built.

Darwin's father was a doctor. On leaving school, Darwin followed in his father's footsteps and went to Edinburgh University to study medicine. However, he gave up because he hated the sight of blood. He then went to the University of Cambridge, intending to work in a church.

Darwin discovered his love of natural history at Cambridge, where he spent much of his time collecting insects. He graduated in 1831 and accepted a place as a naturalist on board the Beagle. The ship's five-year voyage proved to be the most important period in Darwin's life, providing the basis for his future ideas and writings.

He returned to England in 1836 and published an account of his travels, which made him famous. He began to develop his theory of natural selection and published his revolutionary book On the Origin of Species in 1859. This was followed by The Descent of Man in 1871, in which he applied his ideas to explaining the evolution of humans.
