第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节 （共15个小题，每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
I grew up poor. We had little money, but plenty of love and attention. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream. My dream was athletics.
By the time I was siteen, I was good at baseball and football. My high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis. He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream
and showing conviction(信念).
One summer a friend recommended me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocet--- cash for dates with girls, certainly, money for a new bie and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother.
Then I realied I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the wor schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing. I was dreading(害怕) this, but my mother said, “If you mae your bed, you have to lie in it.”
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as mad as I epected him to be. “Your playing days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them,” he said.
I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to thin of the words that would eplain to him why I dreamed of buying my mom a house.
“How much are you going to mae at this job, son?” he demanded. “Three twenty-five an hour,” I replied.
“Well,” he ased, “is $3.25 an hour the price of a dream?”
That question laid bare for me the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal. I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rooie-league ball, and offered a $20,000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother the house of my dream. 21. The writer was grateful to Coach Jarvis, because Jarvis________. A. made him set a goal
B. supplied him with new clothes C. gave him financial support D. helped him show conviction
22. When the writer was offered a job, he wanted to ______. A. balance summer baseball and the wor schedule B. refuse the job offer for summer baseball C. give up summer baseball for the job D. as his coach Jarvis for advice
23. Which of the following can replace the underlined sentence? A. You must eat the bitter fruit of your own maing. B. Believe in yourself, but above all be patient. C. You must rely on yourself first, then others. D. A good beginning maes a good ending.
24. The end of the story was that the writer ______. A. failed to buy his mother a house B. succeeded as a sportsman
C. became a successful businessman D. made some money in the summer job

The holiday season is nown as a festive and joyful time. But for some, it’s the most painful time of year. For children who have lost a close family member, the holidays can be particularly difficult.
Unnown to many, grieving(伤心的) children are all around us. An estimated one in 20 American children will lose a parent before age 16, and the vast majority of children will eperience a significant loss of some ind by the time they complete high school.
The death of a loved one often has a strong influence on a child--- one that is felt over the course of a lifetime. In a 2010 survey conducted by the New Yor Life Foundation and Comfort one Camp, more than half (57%) of adults who had lost a parent growing up said that they would trade an entire year of their life for one more day with that parent.
The death of a loved one causes comple and difficult emotions in children, including sadness, anger, loneliness, confusion and guilt. Such emotions can lead to depression, poor school performance and increased involvement in risy behavior.
Grieving children desperately need support from trusted adults to help them deal with death. But unfortunately, too many grieving children suffer all by themselves. Most adults who wor with children--- including educators, school professionals and many in the social service profession--- have little or no training in how to help ids process their grief.
Even as we continue to broaden our bereavement(丧亲) support, progress in the field can’t come fast enough. The reality remains that many grieving children across the country are not seen or heard as they are in the face of damaging losses. We have an opportunity and a duty to mae sure that grieving families receive adequate help and care.
In order to truly give grieving ids the attention and support they deserve, we all must acnowledge that, too often, grief is still an issue that hides in plain sight, and do our part to bring it further out into the open.
25. According to the second paragraph, the problem of grieving children_____. A. has a long history B. deserves great attention
C. is familiar to most people D. is threatening the majority of children 26. Why does the author mention the 2010 survey? A. To show the great influence of losing a parent. B. To present the major problem adults are facing. C. To prove that children have emotional problems. D. To eplain where children’s problems come from.
27. What does the author advise us to do to help grieving children? A. Protect them from risy behavior.
B. Give them more time to forget the sadness.
C. Tell them that it’s no use being so sad for the loss. D. Teach educators how to give bereavement support.
28. What is the best title for the tet?
A. Dealing With the Death of a Loved One B. Opening up to Grieving Children C. Supporting Grieving Children D. Dealing With Grief
C
In the country where I was born, eleven official languages are spoen. I’m not idding! I
can spea two fluently. One of these languages, ulu, has a splendid greeting, “Sawubona”, which means “I see you” literally.
Isn’t this just an impressive way of recognition? Not just the stereotyped (模式化的) forms of greetings lie “How are you?” “Hey” or “Good day”, but actually a powerful acnowledgement hidden in one word. And the ulu response in this regard is “Ngihona”, with the literal meaning of “I am here.” In this grateful response lies the awareness of “Until you saw me, I didn’t eist. By recogniing me, you brought me into eistence.”
It made me thin. When my daughter passed away si years ago, I couldn’t stand it when people ased me afterwards how I was. I wanted to yell at them, “How can you as a mother something lie that? Can’t you see it’s almost impossible to answer that question?” I really couldn’t understand why they were so cruel to me.
But now I realie people mean well by asing such questions. I also thin we should put more thought into our general greetings-- by waiting for a proper answer and by being really interested in what the other person has to say. As a beautiful quote from Philip Toshio Sudo goes, “Spea directly from your heart to the heart of your listener, as if passing the flame of a candle.”
Sawubona, my dear friends.
29. Why does the author appreciate the greeting “Sawubona”? A. It maes the speaer recognie his own eistence. B. It doesn’t belong to the traditional group. C. It gives the listener a sense of eistence. D. It doesn’t require a fied response.
30. How did the author feel when ased how she was si years ago? A. Curious. B. Grateful. C. Shoced. D. Annoyed.
31. In the author’s opinion, the most important factor in greetings is _____. A. the sincerity B. the custom C. the directness D. the bacground
D
By trying to ticle(挠痒痒) rats and recording how their nerve cells respond, Shimpei Ishiyama and his adviser are discovering a mystery that has puled thiners since Aristotle epected that humans, given their thin sin and unique ability to laugh, were the only ticlish animals.
It turns out that Aristotle was wrong. In their study published on Thursday, Ishiyama and his adviser Michael Brecht found that rats squeaed and jumped with pleasure when ticled on their bacs and bellies. These signs of joy changed according to their moods. And for the first time, they discovered a special group of nerve cells. These nerve cells made this feeling so powerful that it causes an individual being ticled to lose control.
To mae sure that he had indeed found a place in the brain where ticling was processed, Ishiyama then stimulated(刺激) that area with electrical currents. The rats began to jump lie rabbits and sing lie birds.
“It’s truly ground-breaing,” said Jeffrey Burgdorf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who reviewed the paper. “It taes the study of emotion to a new level.”
