第二部分: 阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)

第一节：(共10个小题; 每小题2.5分，满分25分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C 和D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Sometimes we think that we would be happy if all our dreams come true. However, it?s the process of achieving our goals and it?s the road towards our dreams that enriches us and makes us happy. There was a little, but always cranky girl. Everything was bad for her. There weren?t enough toys or the gifts she was getting were wrong. She wished to meet an enchantress(女巫)that would tum her life a fairy tale. One day an enchantress came to the little girl and said that she would give her the fulfilment of one wish every day. The girl became happy: now all her dreams would come true. She thanked the kind enchantress and ran home. From that day she was waiting for every morning with joy and enthusiasm: because one more dream would come true for her. The days passed, the dreams came true... But soon the little girl realized that fulfilment of the wishes did not give her joy and happiness which she hoped for. Many wishes brought her disappointment, and some even a pain. Almost every dream was an empty little girl?s caprice(任性). Being satisfied, she suddenly realized that she did not want this. The girl was getting sadder and sadder day by day, and wish-fulfilment did not bring any joy to her. Soon she started to fear her own dreams. So the girl went to the kind enchantress and asked her to take her terrible gift back. She was afraid to live, afraid to wake up every day, waiting for a coming execution (完成) of another wish. Crying, she asked an enchantress to fulfil only one her dream: to live as she lived before and enjoy life. Kind enchantress had mercy upon the little girl. She waved her magic wand and disappeared. The girl ran home. She was happy, because she knew that now she would painstakingly seek for her one big cherished dream, not wasting time with short-term, in fact, quite unnecessary whims. 21. Why wasn?t the girl happy at the very beginning? A. Because she didn?t have good toys and gifts. B. Because she was afraid to live or wake up every day. C. Because she was not satisfied with everything around her. D. Because she hadn?t met an enchantress that would change her life. 22. What does “this” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Every dream was an empty girl?s caprice. B. Her wishes were fulfilled one by one as time went by.

Indian scientists have designed a new device they hope will solve one of the biggest problems with the use of solar energy. They call the device a solar tree. Daljit Bedi is the chief scientist at the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research(CSIR), where the solar tree was designed. Bedi says the shape of the solar trees makes it possible to fit more photovoltaic panels (光电板) in a space than traditional systems do. This means less land would be needed to produce solar energy. “It takes about four-square meters of space to produce energy which otherwise would have required 400 square meters of space,” he says. “So almost 100 times the space is saved, which is very valuable.” Buying land to develop roads, factories and other infrastructure has been a disputed issue in India. Disagreements often lead to protests (抗议) by those forced to move. Some of the protests have turned violent. Scientists believe the energy a solar tree collects will be enough to power five homes. The space-saving tree will make it easier to provide solar energy to homes in cities, they say. The trees will also take less space from farmers in rural areas. Bedi says solar trees will collect more energy than normal photovoltaic panels on the tops of buildings. India is the world?s third largest producer of greenhouse gases. The country promised to reduce its rate of greenhouse gas production at the United Nations Conference on Climate Change in Paris last year. India said, by 2030, it would reduce its rate of greenhouse gas production by one third over its levels in 2005.

The cost of photovoltaic panels has gone down in recent years. This has made solar power cheaper and easier to use. But, some people worry about the need to buy large areas of land for traditional solar energy collectors. 24. According to the passage, the solar tree is . A. a device to solve land problems B. used to make better use of greenhouse gases C. designed to produce solar energy with less land D. cheaper than other energy producing devices 25. What may lead to protests in India? A. To buy land to build factories. B. To be forced to leave their homes. C. To build more solar trees on the roads. D. To use violence to solve the disputed issues. 26. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The cost of the solar tree is lower than the traditional photovoltaic panels. B. The solar tree can save 100 square meters of space than the traditional systems. C. Indiadecidedtocutitsgreenhousegasproductinyargeamountintefuture. D. India is the world?s largest producer of greenhouse gases.

“I think I?m nothing more than a dead fish.” “I don?t want to do anything. ”“I?m so beat and so sad. “... The young generation in our country used to enjoy their “happy culture” but now they have become “beat and sad” slowly and secretly. Some people even called it “the beat culture”. The “Beat” youths don?t want to do anything. They have no purpose, no desire and they are totally depressed so that they only want to live an aimless life. The “Ge You slouch (葛优瘫)”and the song I feel like having been drained are the examples. Many media concern themselves about this phenomenon and try to persuade the youths into embracing positive and healthy feelings and encourage them to work hard to get rid of decadence. This is really a kind gesture.

However, we don?t have to worry too much about this “beat culture.” In fact, it?s not a negative thing. “Beat”never means despair, but a way of self-mockery (自嘲) and pressure relief. In general, the youths in China are not “beat”. According to a recent international research, the youths in China hold positive attitude towards the future. 29% of the Chinese interviewees believe they will live and work in peace in China because “as long as you work hard, you can have your own day”. Around 93% of the Chinese interviewees believe the future is promising because of medicine industry, renewable energy sources and computer. Compared with Chinese youngsters, youths in developed countries are more pessimistic (悲观的). Of course there are some social reasons for the appearing of “the Beat Culture”. As urbanization develops rapidly, youths living in big cities are facing new challenges that their forefathers have never encountered before. Loneliness and feelings of insignificance and powerlessness are easy to get hold of the young people. Without proper care, they could threaten our mentality and cause many social problems. These problems probably need our attention more.

27. “The Beat culture”includes the following examples except that A. the young generation don?t feel like doing anything. B. the young generation consider themselves dead fish. C. the young generation in big cities are facing new challenges. D. the young generation enjoy the song I feel like having been drained. 28. Which word has the most similar meaning with “decadence” in Paragraph 2? A. loneliness B. laziness C. sufferings D. pessimism 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. Most people believe that with hard work, people can have their own day. B. These days, young people suffer much more loneliness than their parents. C. Chinese youths are more negative than young people in developed countries. D. Social development does bring some pressure to the younger generation. 30. What?s the main idea of the text? A. The Chinese youths are not the beat generation. B. How does “the Beat Culture” affect the Chinese youth. C. “The Beat Culture” is positive to Chinese youngsters D. “The Beat Culture” is popular among the Chinese youngsters.
