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)
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
An increasing number of students worldwide are considering studying abroad. The application process varies from country to country. If you’re looking for a university with a strong international outlook but feel swept over by all the application options, here is some guidance to get you started.
UK
International students must apply to universities in the UK through a system known as Ucas. This system allows students to apply to up to five universities with just one application. It costs £20 for a single choice or £25 for more than one choice.
The application consists of a series of questions to determine the student’s schooling and predicted grades. The biggest part of the application form is the personal statement, in which applicants should describe their personal interests and related experiences.
Switzerland
Switzerland has four official languages and is bordered by five countries so it is no surprise that its universities are among the most international in the world. International applicants may need to take an entrance exam if they have a foreign school certificate, and must also prove that they have a good grasp of the French language, usually through taking a language exam. The full application costs 50 Swiss Francs for a holder of a Swiss diploma and 150 Swiss Francs for holders of foreign diplomas.
Canada
International applicants have to write up a personal profile as part of their application, which is very similar to the personal statement required for a UK university application. Students will also have to prove their English-language competency—there are nine ways to meet the English Language Admission Standard, which are listed on many university websites.
Singapore
The process of applying to a Singaporean university is very much alike, but overseas students may be delighted to find that the domestic applicants have to cover the same procedures: filling out an online application form and submit identification documents, supporting documents and an application fee of S$20.
21.Which country requires international applicants know French well?
A. UK. B. Switzerland. C. Canada. D. Singapore.
22.What part of the application is similar between the UK and Canada?
A. The application system. B. The number of universities.
C. The application cost. D. The personal statement.
23.What’s special about the application process in Singapore?
A. Applicants need to pay a lot. B. It is much simpler than elsewhere.
C. It’s no different for native students. D. The competition is even more fierce.
B
It was about five in the morning in Ontario, Canada, when Donna Strickland’s phone rang. The Nobel Prize committee was on the line in Stockholm, calling to tell her she had won the prize in physics.
“I wondered if it was a joke,” Strickland said in an interview with a Nobel official after the call. She had been asleep when the call arrived. “Something was wrong because it came so early in the morning. But then I knew it was the right day, and it would have been a cruel joke.”
Strickland, an associate professor at the University of Waterloo, shares the honor with two other scientists for their work in the 1980s in transforming lasers(激光)into tiny tools that today have countless application. The prize money $1.4 million will be shared among the three. Half the prize went to Strickland and her cooperator Gerard Mourou, a professor at the Ecole Poly technique in France. The other half was awarded to Arthur Ashkin, a retired physicist who worked at the famous Bell Labs in the United States.
Strickland’s win is historic in more than one way. It’s been over 55 years since a woman was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics. In 1903, Marie Curie became the first-ever woman to win a Nobel Prize in Physics. For the next 60 years, no women physicists were awarded. Maria Goeppert Mayer became the second woman physicist to win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1963.
Strickland herself was surprised to learn she was the third woman to receive the honor in physics. “Is that all, really? I thought there might have been more.” she said at a press conference Tuesday. “We need to celebrate women physicists, because we’re out there. Hopefully, in time, it will start to move forward at a faster rate.”
24. What was Donna’s first reaction after she received the call?
A. She felt all efforts paid off. B. She was too excited to say a word
C. She was doubtful about it. D. She was annoyed at being waken up.
25. How much was Donna rewarded for winning the Nobel Prize?
A. About $350,000. B. About $2.8million.
C. About $700,000. D. About $1.4 million.
26. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Strickland’s achievements in physics.
B. The history of the Nobel Prize in Physics.
C. Strickland’s struggle to win the Nobel Prize.
D. Three women winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics in history.
27. What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. The Nobel Prize in Physics.
B. The achievement of men physicists.
C. The celebration of the Nobel Prize winners.
D. Awarding women physicists the Nobel Prize in Physics.
C
Panic Buying
Shoppers around the world are crazy buying because of fears over the coronavirus(新型冠状病毒),which caused a critical plague in China and even other countries at the beginning of 2020. People in countries such as England, Japan, Singapore and Australia have been emptying supermarket shelves of toilet paper, face masks, hand wash products and dried and canned food. Photos and videos of shoppers in Australia quarreling over the last pack of toilet roll in a supermarket have spread across social media swiftly.
However, governments have advised their citizens that there is no need to “panic buy”. They added that panic buying would only reduce the supply of products needed by patients and medical staff, which could exacerbate the problems the COVID-19 virus is causing. Singapore’s prime minister comforted Singaporeans that: “We have enough supplies. There’s no need to stock up.” A week after the panic buying fever, things have calmed down and shoppers have gone back to purchasing items in normal quantities.
Psychologists say panic buying is an “unwise” behaviour that is part of a condition called FOMO – the fear of missing out. Dr. Katharina Wittgens said a herd mentality(从众心理)sets in during disasters that causes people to copy the actions of others. People watch the news of items being bought in quantity and immediately rush out to the stores to do the same. She said people were taking on too much the risks of dying from the coronavirus. She said: “Far more people die in car accidents or household accidents per year but we don’t panic about these things in the morning before we go to work.”
28. What made shoppers in different countries crazy buying?
A.The approach of 2020 New Year’s Day.
B.The shortage of resources and supplies in their nations.
C.Their concern about the virus.
D.The discount from supermarkets.
29.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. solve B. release C. worsen D. quicken
30. What is the reason for this behavior according to expert?
A. People tend to follow others’ actions in the period of disaster.
B. People are wiser in making decisions.
C. People think no one needs the supplies.
D.People do not believe what others said.
31.What can be concluded from the last paragraph?
A. People should not panic over the virus.
B.More people die from car accidents.
C. People buy little when they go to the stores.
D. We should panic about the situation.
D
A river cuts through rock, not because of its power, but because of its persistence.
Rivers are the veins of the Earth, transporting the water and nutrients (营养物) needed to support the planet’s ecosystems, including human life. While many nutrients are essential to the survival of life, there is one element transported by water in rivers that holds the key to life and to the future of our planet — carbon.
Carbon is everywhere and understanding the way it moves and is either released or stored by the Earth system is a complex science in itself. Carbon starts its journey downstream when natural acid rain, which contains carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, melts minerals in rocks. This helps transform carbon dioxide to bicarbonate (碳酸氢盐) in the water that then flows in our rivers. This is a very long process, which is one of the main ways carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere. Carbon is transported by rivers to oceans and once that carbon reaches the ocean, it is stored naturally in deep sea sediments (沉淀物) for millions of years.
As carbon travels down a river, different processes may impact whether it continues to flow downstream or whether it is released into the atmosphere. For example, human engineering, like extensive dam construction, will result in dramatic changes to how water and sediments travel down the river. Some carbon that fails to reach the sea may return to the atmosphere in some way, which causes more warming.
Earth’s climate is closely related to the carbon cycle. We all know about the essential role of plants in consuming carbon dioxide, but do we know enough about rivers? Changing the chemistry and the course of rivers may have significant impacts on how they transport carbon. Remember: wherever we live, we all live downstream.
32.Where is the carbon in rivers originally from?
A. The atmosphere. B. The rocks.
C. The acid rain. D. The upstream areas.
33.Why is human engineering mentioned in Paragraph 4?
A.To show how important to life carbon is.
B.To explain how necessary it is to build dams.
C.To show how a natural process is interrupted.
D.To explain how humans fight global warming.
34.What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?
A. We’d better move upstream to live.
B. We should protect plants along rivers.
C. We’d better seek more help from plants.
D. We should be cautious about river management.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. What Humans Do with Rivers
B. How Rivers’ Transporting Carbon Counts
C. What the Carbon Cycle Means to Us
D. How Living Downstream Affects the Earth

Every year, thousands of students choose to study overseas. 36 The following steps may prove useful in their preparations to study overseas.
● Get to know your new home before you land in it.
There is no substitute for good preparation. 37 Learning about the history,culture,tradition,language and even details such as food,music,transport,weather and social activities of your new host country are all important. Thanks to the Internet,most of this can be found at the click of a button.

A. Talk to your close friends and family about your thoughts,dreams and fears.
B. Instead, learn from mistakes and turn them into opportunities for future
improvement.
C. It’s not easy being practical when deciding what to pack.

Dear Medical workers,
I am Li Hua from an international school in Fuzhou. On behalf of my school, I would like to express sincere gratitude to you all for your devotion and sacrifice in the battle against the novel corona virus.
In this epidemic situation, it is you who, regardless of the shortage of equipment and the potential of infection, desperately rescue those infected but struggling for life. It is also you who have shed new light on the virus with expertise to build up our confidence to defeat it. It is you who deserve all admiration and love!
Such few words can’t fully convey our thankfulness for your irreplaceable contribution. I believe with our joint efforts China will win the battle and make a quick recovery.
Good luck and stay well!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

M: Are those noodles done yet? I’m so hungry, I could eat raw eggs!
W: Me, too. But I’m afraid they’re still cooking. It feels like I’ve been waiting for this water to boil all day.
M: I think it just seems longer because we’re so hungry.
Text 2
W: What are we doing in P.E. today, John? I hope it’s not track and field again. I’m a terrible runner.
M: Not all of track and field is running, you know. Why don’t you try some of the “field” events? There’s the long jump, the high jump…
Text 3
W: I studied a little French when I was younger, and I know that Spanish has some similarities, so it shouldn’t be too difficult. At least, that’s what I was thinking when I signed up for it.
M: It looks like we’ll be classmates.
Text 4
W: What happened to this lamp, Steve? It looks like someone used it as a football.
M: I know. It fell off my desk last night. Do you think my parents will notice?
W: Definitely. You should send a text message and tell them about it before they get home.
Text 5
W: Hey, Max! Do you know about the big game this weekend?
M: Uh…yeah, but keep your voice down. We’re supposed to be quiet in here. People are studying all around us.
W: What do you mean? It’s not like we’re in class. This is our free time.
Text 6
M: How was your break? Ready for a new term?
W: It was fine, but it wasn’t long enough. I could use just one more week.
M: I hear you! How’s your new class load? What are you teaching?
W: Art History 101, the same as usual. But this year, I’m excited because my students are from different parts of the country.
M: Awesome. I’ll bet you’ll learn a lot.
W: Why are you in the lunch room? Don’t you have papers to grade?
M: No, I’m just planning tomorrow’s lesson. I got bored and decided to come see what’s in the fridge.
W: Well, there’s nothing in there yet. It’s only the first day of school.

W: Where are Jim and Kate? We’ve been waiting here forever. We were all supposed to meet here at noon by the entrance.
M: Yeah, they’re in the parking lot. And Dave and his wife Julia are right behind them. What time does the movie start?
W: In ten minutes, but since everyone is late, we might have to see another movie.
M: There is another showing at 1:30, so we can shop here for a while and then head up to the fifth floor.
W: OK. You get the tickets, and I’ll wait here for the rest of them. Do you have enough money for the tickets?
M: Actually, no. I only have enough for myself and one other person. What about you?
W: Dave’s wife is paying for me. So, I guess we’re stuck here.
M: I guess it would have been easier to have just gotten a ride with them…

M: Look outside, Hannah. It’s only raining now, but the temperature is supposed to drop. The streets will be icy if it gets cold enough.
W: I think the rain will turn to snow soon, actually. I wonder if I should put the snow chains on the tires before I leave.
M: Let me check the weather report. If it’s going to snow, you may want to think about just staying here.
W: I can’t stay in this café all night, Hank. And you shouldn’t either.
M: Well, I only have to walk a few blocks and I’ll be home. What are you going to do? It’s safer for you to take the subway.
W: I suppose I should have stayed home. I don’t know why I always feel like I can study better in a coffee shop. It’s a little crazy, isn’t it?
M: Not really. Look around you. This place is full of desperate students like us.
W: Well, if we ever get to graduation, I’m going to save up my money and buy a coffee shop in a college town.
M: That’s a great idea. But first, we have to survive this storm.
Text 9
W: Welcome back to Valley High, Aaron. It’s been two years since you visited us, and you’re almost finished with college. Can you give the students some tips on how to succeed in college?
M: Uh, I will try. I think it’s important to take control of your schedule in the first year. Nobody will tell you when to do your homework, so you have to take charge. And of course, you need a good network of friends. It’s important to choose friends who also have good study skills. Otherwise, you’re doomed!
W: And what causes most new college students to fail?
M: Well, in addition to falling behind on their work and spending too much time on social activities, I think students also get in trouble when they don’t use the university’s resources.
W: You mean, like the library?
M: Well, yes. I’m also talking about services that can help students succeed. For example, the office for academic success can help you find tutors. Or you can visit the writing center or the math lab if you need help with an assignment. And of course, all professors have office hours. You should take advantage of those when you are confused or get behind.
Text 10
It was midnight, and John was studying for his last test. He had many classes, and getting the highest score was important to him. He knew that doing well in high school was important. He had stayed awake every night during final exams to make sure he could succeed.
On Monday night, he had worked on chemistry until 8:00 the next morning, just in time for his chemistry final. On Tuesday night, he had reviewed Modern Asian History until 4:00. On Wednesday night, he worked on his mathematics. He wanted to get the highest score possible on that test, because engineers must know math well. But on Thursday night, when he was studying for his English test, he began to fall asleep. His head was resting on his textbook, and his pen had made a big ink spot on his shirt. He had slept until 8:30, and he had only thirty minutes to get to the classroom. He put on his glasses and ran to the school. When he got there, there were no cars in the parking lot. The gates were closed. He looked at his smart phone and saw that all his friends had sent him messages. That was when he realized the terrible truth — he had slept longer than he had thought. It was the weekend, and the English test was over!
