　　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

　　After winning a big game，athletes are often asked how they attained that success.Most say their achievement is the result of gruelling hard work and intense practice.Usually athletes say how hard it is to win the big games.At the opposite end of the spectrum，however，is the fact that losing the big game，or，in my case，all the games，can be even tougher.

　　From the spectators’point of view，last year’s basketball season for my high school team was nothing short of an embarrassment.And while 0 and 20 is certainly nothing to be proud of，that season had a bigger impact on me than any other，and probably more than any season since.

　　As a team captain，I knew it probably wouldn’t be the easiest year，but did I ever think we would lose every game？Of course not.Since six of our top players had graduated，it was clear that we were a young team who would struggle.The struggle began earlier than expected，though，as our team’s starting center was suspended for the season，and two key members decided to quit after two weeks.At some point，quitting probably passed through every player’s mind，but，in the end，we all stuck it out，vowing to work even harder.

　　Then there came a time when even our own coach had given up on us.Personally，I felt like it was no longer worth giving my all.I thought，if even the coach doesn’t believe in us，why should I？But just as my hope began to fade，a teammate called a meeting.He said，“Nobody thinks we’re going to win，and heck，we may not，but，as teammates and friends，we_owe_it_to_each_other_to_give_it_our_all_every_game.”

　　Sure，it was a little cliché (陈旧的)，but it was that moment that taught me how to be a leader.It hit me then that I may have been a captain，but I，like others in my position，certainly didn’t deserve the role.As a leader you can never quit on the team who looks up to you.It is one thing to be named captain and feel great and go through the motions，but it is quite another to be a real captain and make sure everyone works to their potential all the time.

　　I am sure it is great to go through high school without losing and bringing home awards.But in all honesty，I relish the fact that my team lost every game last year.It may not help me to become a better basketball player，but it already has made me a better leader and person.

　　46．What was the biggest problem with the author’s team last season?

　　A．Several key members were unable to play the games.

　　B．Their coach no longer wanted to instruct them.

　　C．There were no actual leaders on the team.

　　D．Most of players lost hope and wanted to quit.

　　47．In the text，the author seems to suggest that a good leader should________.

　　A．be confident about himself

　　B．make sure everyone goes all out

　　C．work hard to win the games

　　D．feel great about his team

　　48．By saying “we owe it to each other to give it our all every game.”(Paragraph 4) the teammate means that all of them should________.

　　A．be responsible for the losses

　　B．try their best on the court

　　C．feel thankful for what they’ve done

　　D．get together to win every game

　　49．What is the main idea the author aims to express in the text?

　　A．Success is the result of hard work.

　　B．A friend in need is a friend indeed.

　　C．One can learn something from the failure.

　　D．A real leader should never give up.

　　B

　　McDonnell，who has made oil drilling off Virginia’s coast，one of his administration’s top tasks，flew to Houston on Monday to advertise the benefits of offshore drilling at a national conference.He told reporters before he left that he does not want to postpone drilling but to learn from the accident off Louisiana’s coast.

　　“What we do as Americans is that we find out what went wrong and how can we do things better，” McDonnell said.“I think that’s the spirit of American people.”

　　President Obama announced in March that Virginia will become one of the first East Coast states to drill offshore for oil and natural gas.Companies could conduct exploratory drilling in Virginia’s waters 50 miles off the coast late next year or early in 2017.

　　In Virginia Beach，the state’s largest city and one that relies heavily on tourism，Mayor Will Sessoms said he would be worried if the timetable was not changed.Sessoms supported drilling and helped the city pass a resolution (决议) in favor of it，in part to help the tourism industry by keeping the cost of gas down.But，he said，the Louisiana accident was a wake-up call.

　　“It’s alarming to me，” Sessoms said.“It gives me great concern.”

　　Obama swore Friday that no expansion of offshore oil drilling would take place until investigations into the Louisiana accident were complete.

　　Virginia’s officials，who support drilling，said they agree that drilling should be delayed.Sen.Mark Warner said it was “appropriate” for Obama to delay offshore projects.McDonnell said he wants to see a full investigation into the Louisiana accident，but he still thinks that drilling could begin off Virginia’s coast as soon as next year or early 2017.

　　McDonnell has also said that drilling off Virginia’s coast would create thousands of jobs，as well as lessen US dependence on foreign oil.

　　A recent explosion and fire on an exploratory well in the Gulf (海湾) of Mexico left 11 workers missing and dead.Crude oil (原油) has been leaking into the gulf since，inching closer to the coasts of Louisiana，Alabama and Mississippi.

　　The accident confirmed the worst fears of environmental groups and people already worried that possible spills (溢出) could harm plants，animals，and tourism.

　　50．What was McDonnell’s opinion about drilling off Virginia’s coast?

　　A．It should be stopped as it may cause damage to the environment.

　　B．It should be delayed due to the gulf oil accident.

　　C．It has a lot of benefits，and thus shouldn’t be delayed.

　　D．It could make the US dependent on foreign oil.

　　51．Why did Will Sessoms support drilling off Virginia’s coast?

　　A．It could create thousands of jobs.

　　B．It could help recover the economy.

　　C．It met the spirit of American people.

　　D．It partly helped the tourism industry.

　　52．What do we know about the accident?

　　A．The explosion in the Gulf of Mexico killed 11 workers.

　　B．The leaked crude oil may affect the coasts of 3 states.

　　C．The investigation into the accident has been completed.

　　D．Officials who support drilling off Virginia’s coast are not in favor of the investigation.

　　53．What is the main idea of the report?

　　A．Officials reconsider support for drilling after the gulf oil accident.

　　B．It is dangerous to drill oil off the coasts.

　　C．People should learn from oil accidents to reduce damage to our environment.

　　D．Investigations should be carried out immediately after oil accidents.

　　C

　　Everyone has good days and bad days.

　　Sometimes，you feel as if you’re on top of the world.But occasionally you feel horrible，and you lose things and you cannot focus on your schoolwork.

　　For more than 20 years，scientists have suggested that high self-esteem (自尊) is the key to success.Now，new research shows that focusing just on building self-esteem may not be helpful.In some cases，having high self-esteem can bring bad results if it makes you less likeable or more upset when you fail at something.

　　“Forget about self-esteem，” says Jennifer Crocker，a psychologist (心理学家) at the University of Michigan，US，“It’s

　　not the important thing.”

　　Feeling good

　　Crocker’s advice may sound a bit strange because it is good to feel good about yourself.

　　Studies show that people with high self-esteem are less likely to be depressed，anxious，shy，or lonely than those with low self-esteem.

　　But，after reviewing about 18,000 studies on self-esteem，Roy Baumeister，a psychologist at Florida State University，has found that building up your self-esteem will not necessarily make you a better person.

　　He believes that violent and wicked (邪恶的) people often have the highest self-esteem of all.He also said：“There’s no evidence that kids with high self-esteem do better in school.”

　　Problems

　　All types of people have problems.People with high self-esteem can have big egos (自我) that can make them less likeable to their peers (同龄人)，said Kathleen Vohs，a psychology professor at Columbia University.

　　People with high self-esteem tend to think more of themselves，Vohs says.People with low self-esteem are more likely to rely on their friends when they need help.

　　What to do

　　Researchers say it is best to listen to and support other people.Find positive ways to contribute to society.If you fail at something try to learn from the experience.“The best therapy (药方) is to recognize your faults，” Vohs says.“It’s OK to say，I’m not so good at that，and then move on.”

　　54．It is concluded in the research that high self-esteem________.

　　A．is not important at all

　　B．has taken on a different meaning

　　C．may not be the key to success

　　D．does not help you do better at school

　　55．According to the research，people with high self-esteem________.

　　A．have better relationship with people of their own age

　　B．are more likely to become violent and wicked

　　C．tend to be proud and do not care much about others

　　D．often feel depressed and can’t focus on their work

　　56．The advice in the last paragraph is mainly for people________.

　　A．with high self-esteem

　　B．with low self-esteem

　　C．who are still at school

　　D．who are good at everything

　　The well-known Rushmore National Monument in the United States is built on the Rush Moore Peak,1829 meters above sea level，of the Black Hills in the south—west of South Dakota.It is a group of huge stone statues of four American presidents，George Washington，Thomas Jefferson，Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt.President Washington is the founding father of the country；the 3rd President Jefferson drafted the US Declaration of Independence；the 16th President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation and the 26th President Roosevelt protected the average people’s right to compete fairly with trusts.All 1829 meters above sea level，made outstanding achievements for their country.They were pioneers of US history.

　　第二节(共5 小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

　　61.

　　The World Health Organization(WHO)says that blindness and other visual problems are the leading causes of disability of older people in low-and middle-income countries.However，some researchers disagree with WHO on this point.They made a study and found that the leading cause is dementia (痴呆)．

　　62.

　　Dementia is a loss of intellectual ability that affects memorizing，learning and thinking abilites and other language skills.People with dementia may forget family members or not know what day it is.Sometimes they become angry or sad，and they can often hear voices，or see things that are actually not there.

　　63.

　　Renata Sousa from the Institute of Psychiatry at King’s College London and other researchers made a new study.The study dealt with the causes of disability among fifteen thousand people aged over sixty-five in seven countries，which include China，India，Cuba，the Dominican Republic，Venezuela，Mexico and Peru.The team found that dementia was the leading cause of disability of the elderly in areas except rural India and Venezuela.Other major causes were stroke，arthritis (关节炎)，depression，visual problems and gastrointestinal (胃肠道的) problems.

　　64.

　　In low-and middle-income countries，heart diseases and cancer get more attention than chronic (慢性的) diseases.However，researchers say that great importance should be given to chronic diseases of the brain and mind.As the population ages，the society will have to deal with more and more cases of dementia.The study shows that the elderly is nine percent of the total population in low-and middle-income countries today.However，the number is growing quickly.It is likely to reach twenty percent of the total population by the middle of the century.

　　65.

　　An article published in the Lancet medical journal dealt with a special issue on disability.It was a study on disability and children in eighteen low-and middle-income countries.It indicated that in almost half of the countries，children who were breast-fed were less likely to have a disability than those who were not.The same was true of those who had a deficiency of vitamin A and those who were underweight.Children who did not take part in early learning activities or attend school were also more likely to be disabled than those who did.

　　第一部分

　　1．C　2.B　3.B　4.C　5.A　6.E　7.A　8.D

　　9．C　10.G

　　11．C　考查交际英语。Sounds great.意为“听起来太好了。”表示赞同对方的建议。

　　12．D　考查冠词。president表示职位，在句中充当同位语，前面不用冠词；all-out donation意思是“裸捐”，根据语意可知冯军是继陈光标之后第二个“裸捐”的中国亿万富翁，因此，第二空前用不定冠词an。

　　13．C　考查非谓语动词。dog与tie up之间存在被动关系，因此用过去分词tied up。这里是keep sb./sth.＋过去分词形式，tied up在句中充当宾语补足语。

　　14．A　考查介词短语。从对话中可知Jack经常不顾他母亲的反对而去游泳，因此用regardless of不顾，不管；in case of如果，假使；in view of考虑到，相当于considering。

　　15．B　考查状语从句。句意为：而且村民住的地方空气很新鲜。where引导地点状语从句。

　　16．C　考查让步状语从句。however引导让步状语从句，结构为“however＋形容词＋a(n)＋单数可数名词”。句意为：一个人不管有多聪明，有时也会犯错。

　　17．B　考查定语从句。which引导定语从句修饰places，并且在从句中作主语。

　　18．B　考查时态和语态。句意为：你介意我把收音机开大声点儿吗？正在广播天气预报，我想知道天什么时候放晴。说话间广播里的预报天气这个动作正在发生，且broadcast与weather report之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，故选B。

　　19．B　考查escape的用法。escape后常跟名词或动名词-ing形式，又因see与the little boy之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，故选B。

　　20．D　考查非谓语动词。look forward to中to是介词，后面应该使用v.-ing形式，又因非谓语动词的否定结构都是在它们前边加not来构成的，故否定词not应该放在v.-ing形式前面。21．A　考查情态动词。can表示可能性，意为“有时候会”，符合语意。

　　22．B　考查时态。如果知道你在等我，我会来早点儿，根据语意可知“我”在这之前不知道你在等我，因此应该使用didn’t know。

　　23．D　考查名词性从句。从句式结构可知，本题考查宾语从句。从句中缺少主语，因此应该用what引导。

　　24．B　考查动词辨析。句意为：随着人们生活水平的提高，人们越来越重视健康了。attach importance to...意为“认为……有重要性，重视”，符合题意。adjust调整；appeal呼吁；apply申请，均不符合题意。

　　25．A　考查形容词辨析。句意为：“你方便明早九点来吗？”“我们能早一点儿吗？我十点半还有一个会。”convenient便利的，方便的，常用于it is convenient for sb.to do sth.结构。comfortable舒服的；vacant空的，空缺的；free自由的，均不符合题意。

　　【语篇解读】　一项研究表明，老板对员工的表扬能提高员工工作的积极性，并有利于稳定人心。然而，老板们对表扬员工似乎比较吝啬，有些员工说，即使他们工作表现出色，也没得到过老板的赞赏。

　　26．D　从语境和选项看，这里用frequently表示“经常”。

　　27．A　这里用a pay rise表示“涨工资，加薪”。句意为：对员工来说，经常听到“谢谢”或“做得好”等话与适度加薪具有同样意义。

　　28．C　从句子结构看，这里用了make＋宾语＋形容词宾补；从含义看，这里表示“赞扬和鼓励也更能使员工积极工作，有利于稳定人心。”

　　29．B　语境说经常表扬员工，他们在自己的工作岗位上干的时间就更长，这样一来就节约了因为“替换”员工而带来的成本。从句意的连贯判断选B表示“替代者，接替者”。

　　30．A　从语境可知，本文谈论的是一次调查的结果，因此选A。在被调查的一千名员工中，三分之一的人说，即使他们工作表现出色，也没得到过老板的一句感谢。

　　31．D　前面提到被调查的人中三分之一的情况，这里叙述的是另外三分之一的人，用形容词further表示“附加的”。

　　32．B　此处表示“在前面提到的那两种情形中”，用case表示“情形，事例”。A.调查，C.部分，D.要点。

　　33．C　从前面叙述的这两种情形看，他们都觉得自己即使工作表现出色，也没得到过或者没有得到足够的感谢，可见他们觉得自己没得到足够的重视，undervalue表示“低估”。

　　34．D　从搭配和句意判断用be devoted to表示“投入，致力于做某事”。这意味着他们的工作积极性很可能会降低，而且换工作的可能性增大。

　　35．A　表扬员工，这与1%的加薪具有同样的激励作用。B.优势，C.发展，D.感觉，都不如，A.激励，更符合语境。

　　36．C　从语境看，表扬员工所起到的作用就像给他们加薪一样，而这样的表扬不会让老板掏腰包，更便宜。此句呼应了本文的开头：politeness costs nothing。

　　37．B　回应本文的主题，这里说对员工来说，经常得到老板的认可(表扬)对于他们来说很重要。用acknowledgement表示“承认，感谢”。A.视察，C.承诺，D.轮廓，梗概。

　　38．A　语境表示转折含义：四分之三的员工称，经常得到老板的认可对他们来说很重要；而仅有四分之一的人认为自己得到了应有的认可。

　　39．D　这里用as与前面构成比较结构as much praise as，本空的as引导比较状语从句。他们觉得自己得到了需要的表扬。

　　40．C　而从事体力劳动的员工即使自己的工作做得很好，他们也很少得到老板的认可。用recognition表示“认可，认同”。

　　41．D　从语境看，这里表示苏格兰员工觉得自己的能力最被低估，与下文照应。

　　42．B　苏格兰员工说他们需要更多的表扬，而英国东北部地区的员工不太容易被老板的赞扬打动。用impress表示“使铭记，给某人留下印象”。

　　43．B　与前面的“英国东北部的员工不太容易被老板的赞扬打动”照应，在这里，只有69%的人觉得有必要经常得到老板的赞扬。

　　44．A　老板的赞美不仅仅是营造了一个愉快的工作环境。用create表示“创造”。

　　45．C　这里用副词even加强语气，表示“甚至”：这些表扬的话甚至还能为公司增加利润。

　　【语篇解读】　成功固然光荣，失败依然可敬。带领残兵败将参加篮球比赛的整个悲壮的过程让作者深有感悟。

　　46．D　推理判断题。根据第三段中的内容可推断作者所在球队在上个赛季遇到的最大问题是大多数队员丧失了希望，想要放弃。第四段的开头部分叙述的是甚至教练在一段时间也放弃了这个球队，而不是说教练不再想指导他们，所以B项不对。

　　47．B　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段后半部分的内容可知作者建议好的领导应该让每个人充分发挥潜能，全力以赴。

　　48．B　推理判断题。本句前半部分提到没有人认为他们会赢，再结合本句中的转折词but可推断队友的意思是他们在赛场上要尽最大努力。

　　49．C　主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段可判断此项正确。

　　【语篇解读】　由于墨西哥湾的漏油事件，原本要在弗吉尼亚海岸开展的石油开采变得扑朔迷离起来，后来结果又怎样了呢？文章将告诉我们答案。

　　50．C　事实细节题。从第一段、第七段和第八段内容可知，McDonnell认为在弗吉尼亚海岸开采石油好处多多，不应该推迟，所以答案选C项。

　　51．D　事实细节题。从第四段中的in part to help the tourism industry可知，开采石油能在一定程度上帮助当地的旅游业，所以答案选D项。

　　52．B　事实细节题。从倒数第二段中的inching closer to the coasts of Louisiana，Alabama and Mississippi可知，墨西哥湾的原油泄漏影响到了美国的Louisiana，Alabama and Mississippi三个州，所以答案选B项。

　　53．A　主旨大意题。从全文内容我们知道，由于墨西哥湾的漏油事件，原本要在弗吉尼亚海岸开展的石油开采一事，现在变得不确定，政府对此变得慎重起来，有了更多的考虑。据此可见A项最能概括文章内容。

　　54．C　推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，最新研究打破了以往二十多年科学家所提倡的观点——强烈的自尊是成功的关键，而是表明集中培养自尊并不是很有帮助，由此可知C项正确。

　　55．C　细节理解题。依据Problems下面第一、二段中的“People with high self-esteem can have big egos (自我) that can make them less likeable to their peers (同龄人)”“tend to think more of themselves”可知自尊心过强的人过于自我，不关心他人，在同龄人中不受欢迎。

　　56．A　推理判断题。本文一直围绕自尊心过强的人展开讨论，由此可知最后一段的建议也是针对这些人的。

　　【语篇解读】　本文介绍的是建立在拉什莫尔山上的拉什莫尔国家纪念碑的相关信息。现在这里已经成了人们趋之若鹜的名胜古迹了。

　　58．D　细节题。阅读文章可知前三种说法均正确，所以本题应该是选D，以上的答案全对。

　　59．D　细节题。从倒数第二段倒数第二句“Though not facing the same direction，they are all lifelike and look ahead gravely in harmony with fixed gazes”可知。

　　60．D　推断题。根据“Groups of people keep streaming everyday to the site for a visit and tourists across the world are also interested in taking a view of this great Monument”可以得知人们来拉什莫尔纪念碑来参观。
