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)
A
The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. Then an old woman said, “Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I' m eighty－seven years old. Can I give you a hug?” I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may.”
“Why are you in college at such a young，innocent age?” I asked. She jokingly replied, “I'm here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of children, and then retire and travel.” I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.
　　“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one.” she told me. After class we walked to the student union building and shared a chocolate milk shake. We became instant friends. Every day for the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I'll never forget what she taught us. As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her cards on the floor. Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into the microphone and simply said, “I'm sorry I'm so nervous. I'll never get my speech back in order so let me just tell you what I know.”
“There are only three secrets to staying young，being happy，and achieving success.”
　“You have to laugh and find humor every day.”
“You've got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die.”
　“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change.”
　　At the year's end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years before. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral to memorize the wonderful woman who taught by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be.
Remember，growing older is unchangeable, growing up is optional.
21. According to the passage, the old lady goes to the college to __________.
A. make her life colorful and interesting B. realize the dream she always dreams of
C. change her life by a college education D. set a good example to the young students
22. Which of the following word CANNOT describe the old lady?
A. humorous B. easygoing C. wise D. serious
23. The best title for this passage can be _____________
A. The Older, The Better B. How to Make Your Life Meaningful
C. Never Give up Your Dreams D. Be Yourself
B
The slavery drama “12 Years a Slave” won the Academy Award for best picture on Sunday, making history as the first movie from a black director to win the film industry's highest honor in 86 years of the Oscars. Can anyone tell me your ideas about this movie? —— Great Martin
“12 Years a Slave is a surprisingly underwhelming movie. It is more of a string of picture about several heartless and evil white men(and women)who are just mean without the motivation of running a plantation on their minds. There is very little character development and most of the film relies on what the audience already knows and feels about slavery.” —— Gemini Jef
“Never have I been stunned into an emotional silence after watching a film in the theater. I’ve come out of films before thinking ‘My god, that was unbelievable’, like when I saw The Lord of the Rings for the first time, but this film just hits you on another level entirely. You sit there after it’s over, wondering if what you’d just experienced was real. The day after, you feel the same.” —— Paul Johnson
“This movie is just an average movie about slavery. Are you kidding me, segregation movies are a dime a dozen and this movie beat out Gravity for Golden Globes? Gravity has never been done before. 12 Years a Slave I watched once and will never watch again. I watched Gravity 5 times and still love it.” ——Dominionator
“This movie was realistic and engaging at every second. Even the dramatic pauses were worthwhile and definitely not a waste of time. The script inferred and hinted at events rather than just plain saying them, and that was genius. Outstanding photography, amazing special effects and the acting is top notch. There were a few people that walked out during some scenes. What a shame!” —— Apols
24. The main purpose of Great Martin’s writing is __________ .
A. to give a brief introduction of the movie B. to share his own opinions with others
C. to invite answers to his question D. to explain why he asks the question
25. The underlined word “stunned” in the third paragraph probably means __________.
A. puzzled B. shocked C. disappointed D. concerned
26. Among the four speakers，who made positive comments on the movie?
A. Gemini Jef and Paul Johnson B. Paul Johnson and Dominionator
C. Gemini Jef and Dominionator D. Paul Johnson and Apols
27. Which of the following best states Paul Johnson’s ideas about 12 Years a Slave?
A. It leaves little room for character development.
B. It reaches the height of The Lord of the Rings.
C. It doesn’t deserve such high praise.
D. It amazes the audience with its special effects.
C

US jumbo jet leaves tiny airport
A  Boeing 747 Dreamlifter cargo (货物) plane has safely taken off from a tiny airport in Kansas after it landed there by mistake.
The huge cargo jet had been heading for McConnell air force base in Wichita, but instead touched down at nearby Colonel James Jabara airport.
No one was injured and no property damage occurred when the plane landed.
There had been questions as to whether the aircraft would be able to depart from the much shorter runway at Jabara.
The Dreamlifter normally needs a runway of 2,780m (9,119ft) to get into the air at maximum weight;
Jabara’s runway is only 1,860m long.
A tug (牵引车) was sent to the airport to turn around the huge cargo plane.
Brad Christopher of the Wichita Airport Authority told the Associated Press news agency that the company operating the aircraft had assured(使确信) us they’ve run all the engineering calculation and performance and the aircraft is very safe for a normal departure at its present weight and conditions here.
The Dreamlifter, which landed at Jabara on Wednesday evening, is a modified 747-400 passenger aeroplane, which can carry more cargo than any aeroplane in the world, according to Boeing.
The aerospace company uses its fleet of four Dreamlifters to transport large assembled components(组装零件) of its 787 Dreamliner from suppliers around the world to the final location in Washington State.
28. From the passage we can learn that the Dreamlifter landed at Jabara airport ________.
A. on Nov. 19, 2013 B. on Nov. 20, 2013
C. on Nov. 21, 2013 D. on Nov. 22, 2013
29. What does the underlined word “jumbo” mean?
A. Wonderful. B. Crashed. C. Small. D. Huge.
30. We can infer from the passage that the Dreamlifter landed at Jabara with ________.
A. as much cargo as it could carry B. more cargo than it could carry
C. less cargo than it could carry D. heavier cargo than it could carry
31. What’s the main idea of the news?
A. A Boeing 747 Dreamlifter is stuck in a tiny air force base.
B. A US huge cargo plane has left a tiny airport after a wrong landing.
C. A modified 747-400 passenger aeroplane landed at Jabara by mistake.
D. A tug was sent to the Jabara airport to help a stuck Boeing 747 Dreamlifter take off.
D
Nothing could be more useful than the Web, could it? You can search for anything you want and receive lots of different answers. But what if you had a device that was tailored to your specific needs, and that information on the Internet without you even needing to look for it?
Well, that’s where apps(applications应用程序) come in. And in the West, where apps have been around since mid-2008, there are plenty of people who say that their favorite app, rather than the Web, has become the handiest tool in their everyday lives.
There’s an app for everything: whether you want an alarm that analyzes your sleep patterns and wakes you in your lightest sleep stage or a restaurant guide that will help you work out the closest place to get the best meal. There is also a host of games apps to while away the hours, although these have proved far less popular than “lifestyle” apps, according to Lance Stewart— creator of an app named Tube Exits that calculates which carriage you should board in order to arrive at the nearest platform exit on the London Underground.
A GPS( Global Positioning System) app is just one example of an application that makes everyday tasks significantly easier. If you’re trying to go somewhere you’ve never been before, forget your crumpled(褶皱的) paper map. The GPS software will work out, and display your location on a digital map and plot the route you need to take once you key your desired destination.
32. The purpose of the first paragraph is to _______
A. raise the question and introduce the following passage.
B. give us a clear picture of the apps we’re using.
C. draw our attention and to satisfy our curiosity.
D. state the important role that apps play in our life.
33. By using the app described in the 3rd paragraph, you may do the following things except ___________
A. analyzing your sleeping patterns.
B. setting an alarm to wake you up.
C. designing and playing online games.
D. locating the closest restaurant nearby.
34. You may use the Tube Exits app to ___________
A. choose the right carriage for convenience.
B. board the proper train you need.
C. get on the train on time without delay.
D. locate the right station of London Underground.
35. The example of the GPS app in the last paragraph is to show that___________
A. the GPS app plays a very important role in our daily life.
B. the GPS app is the most popular one among people.
C. the paper maps are no longer important and popular.
D. some apps change our way of life and make life easier.
第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分。请将答案填写在II卷上。)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Guide for teenagers
The teenage year can be tough, and it’s normal to feel sad every now and then. But if these feelings don’t go away or become so intense that you can’t handle them, you may be suffering from depression. 36 .
Try not to isolate yourself
When you’re depressed, you may not feel like seeing anybody or doing anything. Just getting out of bed in the morning can be difficult, but it’s necessary. 37 . Spend time with friends, especially those who are active.
Keep your body healthy
Making healthy lifestyle choices can do wonders for your mood. Ever heard of a “runners high”? Physical activity can be as effective as medications for depression, so get involved in sports, ride your bike, or take a dance class. Any activity helps! 38 . As for food, make sure you are feeding your mind with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grain.
Avoid alcohol and drugs
You may try drinking or use drugs in an effort to escape from your feelings and get a “mood boost”, even if just for a short time. However, substance abuse can not only make depression worse, but can cause you to become more depressed. 39 . You will need special treatment for your substance abuse problem.

Stress and worry can lead to depression. Talk to a teacher if exams or classes seem overwhelm
