第二部分:阅读理解（共两节:满分50分）

第一节:阅读短文（共20小题；每小题2分,满分40分）

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

A group of 1,309 passengers boarded the MS Balmoral on Sunday, in Southampton, England, on a voyage to retrace the path of the Titanic. The Titanic was the biggest ship in the world when it sailed on its ill-fated voyage in 1912. Of the 2,227 passengers and crew aboard, more than 1,500 died. The ship, which was headed to New York City, carried the rich and famous on its first voyage. It also carried immigrants(移民), who were seeking a better life in America.

Relatives of people who sailed on the Titanic, historians, authors and people attracted by the story of the unsinkable ship, are on the Balmoral. They want to remember the ship and those who died on her first and last voyage. The historic ship set sail on April 10,1912, from Southampton. Late at night on April 14, she hit an iceberg. In the early morning hours of April 15, the Titanic sank.

The Balmoral is following Titanic’s original course from Southampton. First, the modern-day ship docked(进港) in the port of Cherbourg, France, where the Titanic had picked up more passengers. On Monday afternoon, the Balmoral stops in Cobh, Ireland, the Titanic’s last port of call before sailing to New York.

Balmoral will then sail on the North Atlantic Ocean to the place where Titanic hit an iceberg that damaged the ship’s body. On Sunday, April 15, at 2:20 a.m.—the time the Titanic went down-passengers and crew will hold a memorial service. The next two days will be spent in Halifax, Canada, where many victims of the sinking are buried. Then, the Balmoral will reach its final destination in New York City, where Titanic was supposed to dock—but never did.

Today, the 882-foot-long ship lies in pieces more than 12,000 feet below the ocean’s surface. Several teams of divers have explored the site. They have recovered some items such as dishes and silverware and put them on public display. And more trips are planned to the wreckage(残骸) in the future.

The Titanic and its passengers and crew have been remembered in books, movies and TV programs. But there’s a much more important contribution that Titanic gave us. After she sank, lawmakers and shipbuilders made ships safer. It took a terrible disaster to make ship travel safer for all.

31. Some passengers aboard the Balmoral would like to remember their relatives by ________.

A. sailing on the same way as those on the Titanic

B. searching for the iceberg on their voyage

C. experiencing the terrible climate on the sea

D. moving to America to lead a better life

32. The Titanic had sailed on the sea for ________.

A. almost four days B. about five days C. at least a week D. more than six days

33. It can be inferred from the text that ________.

A.the passengers aboard the Titanic were brave

B.it will be better not to travel by ship any longer

C.ships should be made strong enough for safety

D.the Balmoral was made of the wreckage of the Titanic

34. What can be the best title for the text?

A. A Successful Voyage B. Sailing Through History

C. Two World-famous Ships D. The Terrible Titanic Disaster
