第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分30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
I must have been about fourteen then, and I put away the
incident from my mind with the easy carelessness of youth. But the
words, Carl Walter spoke that day, came back to me years later, and
ever since have been of great value to me.
Carl Walter was my piano teacher. During one of my lessons he
asked how much practicing I was doing. I said three or four hours a
day.
Do you practice in long stretches, an hour at a
time?
I try to.
Well, don't, he said loudly. When you grow up, time won't come
in long stretches. Practice in minutes, whenever you can
find them five or ten before school, after lunch, between household
tasks. Spread the practice through the day, and piano-playing will
become a part of your life.
When I was teaching at Columbia, I wanted to write, but class
periods, theme-reading, and committee meetings filled my days and
evenings. For two years I got practically nothing down on paper,
and my excuse was that I had no time. Then I remembered what Carl
Walter had said. During the next week I conducted an experiment.
Whenever I had five minutes unoccupied, I sat down and wrote a
hundred words or so. To my astonishment, at the end of the week I
had a rather large manuscript ready for revision. Later on I wrote
novels by the same piecemeal (零碎的)method. Though my teaching
schedule had become heavier than ever, in every day there were
moments which could be caught and put to use.
There is an important trick in this time--using principle: you
must get into your work quickly. If you have but five minutes for
writing, you can't afford to waste four chewing your pencil. You
must make your mental preparations beforehand, and concentrate on
your task almost instantly when the time comes. Fortunately, rapid
concentration is easier than most of us realize.
I admit I have never learnt how to let go easily at the end of
the five or ten minutes. But life can be counted on to supply
interruptions. Carl Walter has had a significant influence on my
life. To him I owe the discovery that even very short periods of
time add up to all useful hours I need, if I throw myself into it
without delay.
21. The meaning of stretch in the underlined part is the same as
that in sentence
.
A. The dog woke up, had a good stretch and wandered
off.
B. Bob worked as a government official for a stretch of over
twenty years.
C. My family wasnt wealthy by any stretch of the
imagination.
D. This material has a lot of stretch in it.
22. We can infer that the
author .
A. has new books published each year however busy his teaching
is
B. is tired of interruptions in life because he always has much
work
C. has formed a bad habit of chewing a pencil while writing his
novels
D. makes mental preparations beforehand so as to focus on work
quickly
23. What is probably the best title for this text?
A. Concentrate on Your
Work B.
A Little at a Time
C. How I Became a
Writer
D. Good Advice
B

Everyone could make impulse and buy something unnecessary. Then
how to avoid it'? The best way is to just keep your hands away from
tempting products. According to new research, individuals who touch
possible items in stores are more likely to have an increased
desire to purchase them than those who keep their hands off the
products.
Suzanne Shu and Joann Peck, marketing professors at the
University of Wisconsin's business school conducted studies on the
connection between touch and feelings of ownership and the effect
of perceived（感觉）ownership on the value placed on an object. For one
of the experiments, the experts placed two products, a Slinky toy
and a coffee mug（杯子）, in front of the volunteers who were
undergraduate students．About half of the participants were allowed
to touch the products, while the other half were asked not to touch
them, The volunteers then were asked to express their sense of
ownership of the products and to report, how much money they were
willing to pay for each. The results showed that those students who
were allowed to touch the objects reported significant increased
levels of perceived ownership. They also expressed a desire to pay
more money to obtain the products.
The investigators also discovered that a sense of very pleasant
feelings when touching products, determined how much money
consumers were willing to pay. However, if the object did riot feel
pleasant to the touch, it significantly decreased the amount the
buyers were willing to pay.
Researchers said that many stores have already followed the
right path．But what can be done while shopping online, when
touching of an item is not possible? In this case, the experts say,
just picturing in mind that they are touching it and then owning
it, will cause greater feelings of ownership, and thus the
consumers will be more likely to make a purchase.
When you touch an object, you immediately feel some kind of a
connection to it, according to the researchers. That connection
stirs up（唤起）an emotional reaction. And that emotion can make people
buy something they would never even consider buying if they had not
touched it.
28. How does the author develop the text ?
A. By drawing a conclusion through research.
B. By providing typical examples.
C. By comparing opinions from different fields.
D. By presenting n cause and analyzing its effects.
29. Which of the following was found in the research?
A. Shoppers cannot resist the temptation when they meet things
they like.
B. If you are not to spend money, it's less possible for you to
touch the product.
C. Touching a product affects the customer' s feelings of desire
for it.
D. The longer you touch the goods, the more desire you have to
own them.
30. It can be inferred from the text that
.
A. many stores have used, the method of allowing customers to
touch products
B. a Slinky toy and a coffee mug were used to attract the
participants' attention
C. people won't buy the items if they don't like them even if
they've touched them
D. the people who touch the product will certainly buy
it
31. What led the researchers to conduct this study?
A. To satisfy customers' social needs when shopping.
B. To illustrate the connection between touch and feelings of
ownership.
C. To share their good ideas about avoiding impulsive
consumption.
D. To develop marketing strategies for trade

阅读下面材料，在空格处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或使用括号中单词的正确形式。
Were you the first or the last child in your family? Or were you
a middle or an only child? Some people think
61 matters where you were born
in your family. But there are different ideas about what
birth order means. Some people say that oldest children,
62 are smart and
strong-willed, are very likely
63 (succeed). The reason
64 this is simple.
Parents have a lot of time for their first child and give him or
her a lot of attention. An only child will succeed for
65 same
reason.
What happens to the 66
children in the family? Middle children dont
get so much attention, so they dont feel that important. If a
family has many children, the middle one sometimes gets lost in the
crowd. The youngest
child, 67
, often gets special treatment. Often this child grows up
to be funny. But a recent study saw things quite
68
(difference). The study found that first children believed in
family rules. They didnt take many chances in
69 lives. They
usually 70
(follow) orders. Rules didnt mean as much
to later children in the family. They took chances and they often
did better in life.

书面表达
Recently, we had a discussion on how to make learning English
relaxing and fun. Most students believe that there are many ways to
do so.
Firstly, we can have more interactive activities in class, such
as discussions, story-telling and role-play. In this way, we can
have more fun learning English. Secondly, taking part in speech
contests or English parties is also a good choice. Thirdly, we need
to find more opportunities to communicate in English with people,
whether they are foreigners or Chinese.
These ideas sound reasonable and practical. From my experience,
there are many other interesting and relaxing ways. For example, we
can watch English programs, join English clubs or make English pen
friends. In this way, learning English will be great fun.
