第二部分阅读（共两节，满分30分）

第一节（共15小题：每小题2.5分，满分17.5分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Grading Policies for Introduction to Literature

Grading Scale

90-100, A; 80-89, B; 70-79, C; 60-69, D; Below 60, E.

Essays (60%)

Your four major essays will combine to form the main part of the grade for this course: Essay 1 = 10%;

important to take careful notes during class. Additionally, from time to time I will assign group work to be

completed in class or short assignments to be completed at home, both of which will be graded.

Late Work

An essay not submitted in class on the due date will lose a letter grade for each class period it is late. If it

is not turned in by the 4th day after the due date, it will earn a zero. Daily assignments not completed during

Like most of us, I try to be mindful of food that goes to waste. The arugula (芝麻菜) was to make a nice

green salad, rounding out a roast chicken dinner. But I ended up working late. Then friends called with a dinner

invitation. I stuck the chicken in the freezer. But as days passed, the arugula went bad. Even worse, I had

unthinkingly bought way too much; I could have made six salads with what I threw out.

In a world where nearly 800 million people a year go hungry, “food waste goes against the moral grain,”

as Elizabeth Royte writes in this month’s cover story. It’s jaw-dropping how much perfectly good food is thrown

away-from “ugly” (but quite eatable) vegetables rejected by grocers to large amounts of uneaten dishes thrown

into restaurant garbage cans.

Producing food that no one eats wastes the water, fuel, and other resources used to grow it. That makes

food waste an environmental problem. In fact, Royte writes, “if food wastewere a country, it would be the third

largest producer of greenhouse gases in the world.”

If that’s hard to understand, let’s keep it as simple as the arugula at the back of my refrigerator. Mike Curtin

sees my arugula story all the time -but for him, it’s more like 12 boxes of donated strawberries nearing their

last days. Curtin is CEO of DC Central Kitchen in Washington. D.C., which recovers food and turns it into

healthy meals. Last year it recovered more than 807,500 pounds of food by taking donations and collecting

blemished (有瑕疵的) produce that otherwise would have rotted in fields. And the strawberries? Volunteers

will wash, cut, and freeze or dry them for use in meals down the road.

Such methods seem obvious, yer so often we just don’t think. “Everyone can play a part in reducing waste,

whether by not purchasing more food than necessary in your weekly shopping or by asking restaurants to not

include the side dish you won’t eat.” Curtin says.

24. What does the author want to show by telling the arugula story?

A. We pay little attention to food waste. B. We waste food unintentionally at times.

C. We waste more vegetables than meat. D. We have good reasons for wasting food.

25. What is a consequence of food waste according to the text?

A. Moral decline. B. Environmental harm.

C. Energy shortage. D. Worldwide starvation.

26. What does Curtin’s company do?

A. It produces kitchen equipment. B. It turns rotten arugula into clean fuel.

C. It helps local farmers grow fruits. D. It makes meals out of unwanted food.

27. What does Curtin suggest people do?

A. Buy only what is needed. B. Reduce food consumption.

C. Go shopping once a week. D. Eat in restaurants less often.

The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them

feeling lonely.

The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly

people’s wellbeing. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Staff

in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where hens are in use.

Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I

was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school.

“I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out and down

there again at night to see they’ve gone to bed.

“It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and

residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have

done something useful.”

There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and the charity

has been given financial support to roll it out countrywide.

Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said:

“Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the

benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.”

Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways, said: “We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will

really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.”

28. What is the purpose of the project?

A. To ensure harmony in care homes. B. To provide part-time jobs for the aged.

C. To raise money for medical research. D. To promote the elderly people’s welfare.

29. How has the project affected Ruth Xavier?

A. She has learned new life skills. B. She has gained a sense of achievement.

C. She has recovered her memory. D. She has developed a strong personality.

30. What do the underlined words “embark on” mean in paragraph 7?

A. Improve. B. Oppose. C. Begin. D. Evaluate.

31. What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs?

A. It is well received. B. It needs to be more creative.

C. It is highly profitable. D. It takes ages to see the results.

Human speech contains more than 2,000 different sounds, from the common “m” and “a” to the rare clicks

of some southern African languages. But why are certain sounds more common than others? A ground-breaking,

five-year study shows that diet-related changes in human bite led to new speech sounds that are now found in

half the world’s languages.

More than 30 years ago, the scholar Charles Hockett noted that speech sounds called labiodentals, such as

“f” and “v”, were more common in the languages of societies that ate softer foods. Now a team of researchers

led by Damián Blasi at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, has found how and why this trend arose.

They discovered that the upper and lower front teeth of ancient human adults were aligned (对齐), making

it hard to produce labiodentals, which are formed by touching the lower lip to the upper teeth. Later, our jaws

changed to an overbite structure (结构), making it easier to produce such sounds.

The team showed that this change in bite was connected with the development of agriculture in the

Neolithic period. Food became easier to chew at this point. The jawbone didn’t have to do as much work and

so didn’t grow to be so large.

Analyses of a language database also confirmed that there was a global change in the sound of world

languages after the Neolithic age, with the use of “f” and “v” increasing remarkably during the last few thousand

years. These sounds are still not found in the languages of many hunter-gatherer people today.

This research overturns the popular view that all human speech sounds were present when human beings

evolved around 300,000 years ago. “The set of speech sounds we use has not necessarily remained stable since

the appearance of human beings, but rather the huge variety of speech sounds that we find today is the product

of a complex interplay of things like biological change and cultural evolution,” said Steven Moran, a member

of the research team.

32. Which aspect of the human speech sound does Damián Blasi’s research focus on?

A. Its variety. B. Its distribution.

C. Its quantity. D. Its development.

33. Why was it difficult for ancient human adults to produce labiodentals?

A. They had fewer upper teeth than lower teeth.

B. They could not open and close their lips easily.

C. Their jaws were not conveniently structured.

D. Their lower front teeth were not large enough.

34. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?

A. Supporting evidence for the research results.

B. Potential application of the research findings.

C. A further explanation of the research methods.

D. A reasonable doubt about the research process.

35. What does Steven Moran say about the set of human speech sounds?

A. It is key to effective communication. B. It contributes much to cultural diversity.

C. It is a complex and dynamic system. D. It drives the evolution of human beings.

Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason

was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,” while another read:

“ 36 ” With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle (微妙) competition.

So, how do you find a workout partner?

First of all, decide what you want from that person. 37 Or do you just want to be physically fit,

able to move with strength and flexibility? Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout

partner.

You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won’t result in a

useful response. 38 If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.

My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training

she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her

age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. 39

You and your partner will probably have different skills. 40 Over time, both of you will benefit-

your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core (核心) of your

relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.
