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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

As parents we like to make sure that our children are eating well and getting all the nutrients (营养) they need. Children need two or three kinds of vegetables every day.

A simple way to get children to eat vegetables is eating them ourselves. Following our example, they may start eating vegetables. Don't say things like, "if you eat your vegetables, you can have desserts." These methods work for a little while but can possibly lead them to hate vegetables more. Giving your children new varieties (多样性)of food which will help them develop a taste for trying new things.

Sometimes the simple things just don't work. We have to start becoming a little creative to making our children eat these vegetables. By doing this in the beginning when children are small, we will help them learn to love vegetables.

Think of creative ways to make children eat vegetables. For example, cut up vegetables like carrots, tomatoes, and place them in a creative way on a plate for an afternoon snack. Or try using cheese sauce either by dipping (浸) vegetables in it or by putting the cheese right on top of the uncooked vegetables.

If you prefer, you can also add a teaspoon of sugar on top of cooked green beans and peas to make them a little sweeter taste. Doing this shouldn't lead to a sweet tooth as long as you only give them a small amount.

If you have a child that refuses to eat vegetables, some of these suggestions I've listed will help to turn that around. In the end, you're not only just getting them to eat vegetables, you’re also helping them to live a healthier lifestyle.

21. According to the text, all the following ways to get children to eat vegetables are creative

EXCET _____.

A. preparing carrots in an attractive way B. adding some cheese sauce to vegetables

C. putting cheese on top of vegetables D. making vegetables much sweeter

22. If you want your children to develop the habit of eating vegetables, you should __. .

A. set an example to them B. cut vegetables into different types

C. give dessert to them as an award D. be very patient to them

23. The best title of this passage would probably be "????????."??? A. Vegetables Are Important for Children’ Health??? B. How to Make Your Children Eat Vegetables ??? C. Few Children Like Eating Vegetables??? D. Different Kinds of Vegetables for Children?

B

"Let's go Dutch, shall we?" Jim said after a dinner to his friends in a restaurant. What does Jim mean?

Long ago, there was a kind of dinner called Dutch treat(款待). At a Dutch treat, the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share of the food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means when friends go out to have fun, each person pays his or her own share.

There are many other expressions related with "Dutch" in American English. However, most of them were first used in England in the 17th century. At that time, the British and the Dutch were war enemies. So when British people talked about something wrong or bad, they would like to use the word "Dutch".

A common expression heard a few years ago was in Dutch. A friend may tell you, “You are in Dutch. The teacher is angry with you. Be careful!” When a soldier took Dutch leave, he left the army without permission. Dutch courage was the false courage produced by the effects of drinking wine.

There is one expression that did come from the Dutch. That is to talk like a Dutch uncle. The Dutch were known for the strict and serious way they educated their children.

24. Where were most of the expressions with Dutch first used?

A. In America B. In Dutch C. In England D. In a battle field

25. What do people mean by saying “Let’s go Dutch”?

A. They are going to invite somebody to dinner.

B. Each person should pay his or her own bill.

C. Friends are planning to play a close game.

D. People have decided to go abroad for traveling.

26. If your friend says that he is in Dutch, he most probably means that ______.

A. he is happy B. he is lucky C. he is on vacation D. he is in trouble

27. If Tom acts bravely after drinking, we can say he ________.

A. has Dutch courage B. will take a Dutch leave

D. is like a Dutch uncle D. has a Dutch treat

C

Women make better drivers than men for many reasons. Why is that, do you suppose? Wouldn’t you think that competing at who has better driving abilities is pointless(无意义的)? If you ask me, I’d like to say, men know that women are better drivers but do not have the courage to admit the truth—women are queens of the road.

Unlike men, women stop for directions when they have no idea as to where they are going. We don’t drive around for hours pointlessly wasting a tank of gas only to find ourselves heading in the wrong direction. Have you ever been in a car with a man who is lost? He tells you to shut up when you begin to open your mouth. And every five minutes or so he takes a turn going forty-five miles per hour only to find out he’s made another wrong turn.

Speeding is what men do best on the road. Traffic is not a race. There is a reason why men get more speeding tickets than women. Not because we trick to get out of tickets but only because we don’t get pulled over as frequently. We don’t speed. We have more intelligence than senselessly to put our own lives as well as the lives of others in danger.

My largest issue with male drivers is how a majority of them drive with one hand on the wheel and the other hand doing only God knows what. The seat is backed as far as possible, and they’re totally lost into loud music beyond a necessary level. You don’t ever see women driving like that.

I feel that the above evidence more than proves my points that women are not only better drivers but also safer drivers than men. We women rule the road. Oh, and men, if you want to continue criticizing women for being bad drivers, bring it on. We know you lack confidence, or else you wouldn’t be wasting your valuable time making jokes about the ones you may choose to spend the rest of your days with.

28. If a woman driver feels lost, she will __________.

A. tell the man next to her to shut up B. take the wrong turns at a high speed

C. stop the car and ask people for help D. drive aimlessly for hours without stopping

29. In Paragraph 3, the writer tries to tell us that __________.

A. women drivers often play tricks on the police in charge

B. men drivers usually have to be pulled over to the roadsides

C. men drivers are more confident and skillful in driving

D. women drivers have more responsibility for lives

30. According to the passage, men drivers __________ worries the writer most.

A. not paying full attention B. making jokes about women
