第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

A

A few months after we moved to Tours,France,I wanted to meet my husband,Stéphane,for lunch at the university where he worked.I got lost,so I had to call him.Stéphane’s officemate André overheard the conversation and said,“How could she get lost? just go straight.”

I admit I have a horrible sense of direction;I can’t read a map and I am not such a hot driver.But my husband claims that you don’t really need a road map or to write down directions to get anywhere in France.You just need to know your destination and look at the signs in the traffic circles.And if you don’t see your sign the first time around,you can keep turning around and around until you spot your exit sign.

I suppose.

But as soon as I get into a roundabout I get into a panic and rather than circling to survey my options with a cool head,I exit somewhere,anywhere,just to keep from going round and round.

Six years into our French living experiment,I now have adopted an ideal solution:a GPS(Global Positioning System) program on my smartphone.I rely on it to get just about anywhere,even places I’ve been to before.This past winter we went to the Alps(阿尔卑斯山)for a skiing vacation and a friend asked me where we went.How could I know?Wasn’t “the Alps” precise(精准的) enough?As far as I could figure,we just turned on the GPS program,searched the address and drove.Was it the north Alps or south?Who knew?Is GPS equipment just making us all stupider or is it acting as a useful aid to people who might not be brave enough to go outside of their gates without it?In my case,it’s probably both.

Maybe one day I’ll grow new brain cells where my sense of direction should be.And maybe one day I’ll figure out the French roads.But in the meantime,you’ll find me in a roundabout,trying to figure out where to exit.

21.What was André’s reaction when he knew the author got lost?

A.He phoned Stéphane.

B.He felt very surprised.

C.He showed her the way.

D.He kept waiting for her.

22.What was Stéphane’s advice for the author?

A.To read maps.

B.To find signs.

4

C.To buy a GPS.

D.To learn to drive.

23.When the author entered a roundabout,she would probably .

A.circle around

B.stop being nervous

C.take the nearest exit

D.identify the direction

24.The skiing vacation experience made the author wonder .

A.how to describe a place precisely

B.whether the GPS could be trusted

C.about the influence of the GPS on people

D.about the importance of the sense of direction

B

I hope you will join us to develop the project．The idea struck me in early 2017．We were sitting in our class when our head teacher announced．“There’11 be a new boy starting school tomorrow．He comes from the circus so he’11 be with us for a while．”Immediately I heard remarks like“Those are dirty people”；“They eat raw meat”；and“Watch out you’re your bags”．The teacher must have heard them and said in a very serious voice，“Jake is our guest．Make sure you treat him well．”

It was the first time I had met anyone from a circus．Fortunately he sat in the only spare seat next to me．Of course I didn’t want to mind others’business，but I couldn’t help looking at him sideways．I noticed Jake was smaller than me and had dirty finger nails．His shirt was clean but had been repaired in many places and his trousers were held up by a wide，leather belt．As he was sniffing loudly，I passed him my handkerchief．Immediately the boys began to whisper “Leave him be!’’From my left a slight movement showed that Jake must have heard the remarks too．He seemed to be having great difficulty with his maths work and was struggling to hold his pen correctly．He looked around as if for help．I looked around too．The teacher was busy so I offered to explain the problems to him．As he listened he smiled．His eyes lit up and he returned to the exercises with enthusiasm．He finished them quickly and proudly presented them to the teacher．“Well done，Jake，”she approved．Jake smiled．

I thought about how Jake’s life would be．I remembered seeing the campsite and thinking how poor the facilities(设施)were．So I decided to help．As it was my turn to suggest a project for our grade．I put forward this idea．Our head teacher accepted it and so we began to prepare our plans to improve the campsite．Hope you will join us．

The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and the environment. These findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.

David Tilman, a professor of ecology at the University of Minnesota, America, examined information from 100

6

countries to identify what people ate and how a diet affected health. He noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized(工业化), population increased and earnings rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.

The Western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. David Tilman says overweight people are at greater risk for non-infectious diseases like diabetes(糖尿病) and heart disease.

Unfortunately when people become industrialized, if they adopt this Western diet, they are going to have these health problems, especially in developing countries in Asia. China is an example where the number of diabetes cases has been jumping from less than one percent to 10 percent of the population as they began to industrialize over a 20-year period. And that is happening all across the world, in Mexico, in Nigeria and so on.

And, a diet bad for human beings, is also bad for the environment. As the world’s population grows, more forests and tropical areas will become farmlands for crops or grasslands for cattle. We are likely to have more greenhouse gas in the future from agriculture than that coming out of all forms of transportation right now.

Mr. Tilman calls the link between the diet, the environment and human health, “a trilemma”-a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind.

29.According to the passage, more greenhouse gas might be given off in the future from________.

A．transportation B．developing countries

C．agriculture D．developed countries

30．David Tilman believes that________.

A．diet, the environment and human health are closely connected

B．the Western diet is the only choice as the nation industrializes

C．people in tropical areas are more likely to have heart disease

D．traditional diets are more balanced than the Western diet

31．We can infer from the passage that________.

A．Nigeria has the largest number of diabetes cases

B．overweight people are at higher risk of infectious diseases

C．the examined information comes from developing countries

D．industrialization contributes to the spread of the Western diet

7

32．The main purpose of the passage is to________.

A．call on us to protect the environment

B．warn us of the danger of the Western diet

C．remind us of the importance of health

D．advise us to have a balanced diet

D

Reading can be a social activity．Think of the people who belong to book groups．They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them．Now，the website BookCrossing．com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group．

Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share．BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book．Then the person leaves it in a public place，hoping that the book will have all adventure，traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it．

Bruce Pederson，the managing director of BookCrossing，says，“The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read．BookCrossing combines both．”

Members leave books on park benches and buses．in train stations and coffee shops．Whoever finds their book will 20 to the site and record where they found it．

People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it．E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found．Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home．

BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real”and not the virtual(虚拟)．The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries．

33．Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?

A．To introduce the website．

B．To attract more book groups．

C．To stress the importance of reading．

D．To encourage readers to share their ideas．

33．What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph 2 refer to?

8

A．An adventure．B．The book．

C．A public place．D．The identification number．

34．What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?

A．Pass it on to another reader．B．Mail it back to its owner．

C．Keep it safe in his bookcase．D．Meet other readers to discuss it．

35．What is the best title for the text?

A．Online Reading：A Virtual Tour B．Electronic Books：A New Trend．

C．BookCrossing：A New Bridge D．A Website：An Old Tradition

第二节（共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）

Ho0w to Teach and Model Multiple Reading Strategies

Even students who seem to come to reading naturally and do it frequently in their free time require reading instruction. 36. Building successful readers involves providing them with opportunities for both guided and independent practice. Give students encouragement and feedback(反馈) so they can build on the strategies learned in the classroom.

Before-Reading Strategies

Reading strategies start before beginning to read a text. Activate(激活) students' previous experiences and knowledge they already have. Ask them what type of story they expect to read based on the title and pictures, and also if they have read or experienced anything similar. 37. Have students set a purpose for reading by stating what they want to learn from the text.

During-Reading Strategies

Teach students to monitor their own comprehension. 38. Model these strategies for the students. Successful readers also interact(互动) with the text. Reading specialist Kylene Beers developed an activity for actively involving students in reading called "Say Something." Students take turns reading aloud with a partner. 39.

After-Reading Strategies

Help students relate to the text they have just read by asking them if the situation sounds familiar or reminds them of something. 40. Beers suggests using scales(量表) so students can show their level of agreement with a statement that makes a generalization about the passage. Model the thinking process involved in reaching a level of agreement. Encourage students to discuss their answers, explaining to each other how they

9

arrived at their conclusions.

A. Show them how to stop when they get to a difficult part, reread, go back or even read forward.

B. They pause periodically to make a comment or ask a question about the text.

C. Teaching reading strategies starts with direct instruction and modeling.

D. Start by naming a strategy and explaining how and why it works.

E. Model your thinking by sharing your thoughts out loud.

F. Reading comprehension strategies need to be taught.

G. Encourage students to discuss the text.

Greg could always be counted on to have an interesting party every year. This year the party was at Greg's house. The fun part was a scavenger hunt(寻物游戏)he had set up for us. Two days before the party, Greg went around and asked the neighbors if they would help out. They were almost all willing.

At the party he divided us into groups of four. We all had the same list of things to collect and an hour's time to do it. The group that found the most things on the list would be the winners. So as soon as the hunt began, my group set out at once, in the hope of winning the game. Our first stop was house number 38.A Mrs. Trollis answered the bell quickly. She was glad to help. She had three of the items needed: a nail, a photograph of a baby, and a shoe box.

The next stop was Mr. Gray's house. He was an older man who invited us in. He told us all about a scavenger hunt he went on when he was a boy. We were interested but also worried that we would run out of time listening to his stories. When he realized we didn't have all night, Mr. Gray hurried off to find us a few things we needed. "I hope you will be the winners," he said.

Then we rushed off to another house. A young lady, Ms. Crane, came to the door. She looked busy but she said she could help out. We asked for a baking soda box. Ms. Crane emptied some baking soda into a bottle and handed us the box. We got a few more items in other houses and by this time we were missing only a Chinese newspaper.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

We soon found, however, that finding a Chinese newspaper was a great challenge because none of the neighbors had one.

We soon found, however, that finding a Chinese newspaper was a great challenge because none of the neighbors had one．With just fifteen minutes to go we were getting worried．Suddenly, I had an idea．"Why not go to the street? " I suggested, "Maybe we can find a Chinese there who carries a Chinese newspaper．" Realizing it might be our only chance, we immediately rushed to a street nearby, where we did find a Chinese woman．It was so lucky that she happened to have a Chinese newspaper in her bag．Smiling, she handed us the newspaper after we explained the situation to her．

Finally, we got everything on the list．We wasted no time in getting back to Greg's with the things we collected．It turned out that our group was the only one to get a Chinese newspaper．After all our things were checked, to our great joy, we were declared the winners．Of course, the other groups all wondered how we had managed to get such a newspaper．"It's very simple," I laughed．"Since it's a Chinese newspaper, you should ask a

Chinese for it．"
