二、阅读理解(共4题,共 20分)

21、The summer vacation is coming. If you are a fan of sports and nature, here are some host cities of Olympics to visit recommended by Lonely Planet.

Athens, Greece (1896 and 2004)

Home to the first modern Olympic games in 1896, Athens’ history of the Olympic tradition dates back to several thousand years. Every four years, the Olympic torch is lit at the Panathenaic Stadium in Athens before beginning its long journey to the new host city. Visitors can walk through the Olympic Velodrome in the Olympic Sports Complex and step back in time at the 50,000-seat stadium.

Barcelona, Spain (1992)

These days Barcelona is among the world’s most visitable cities even without Olympic fame, but that isn’t always the case. The telecommunications tower built for the games by Spanish architect Calatrava is also an iconic (图像的) device of the city’s skyline, and its Olympics stadium- Montjuic Stadium is regularly used to host A-list musical performances like The Rolling Stones, Madonna, and Beyonce.

St Moritz, Switzerland (1924 and 1948)

Appropriately, the town that invented Alpine tourism has hosted the Winter Olympics twice, and continues to make use of its many sports facilities—if you can afford to get there. Stay at the Kulm Hotel for the easiest access to the Kulm Country Club, where guests can skate on the same lake used by mid-century Olympians, or test your courage on the Olympia Bob Run, one of the few places where you can ride a full-speed Olympic bobsled (双人雪橇) on a run constructed entirely of ice.

Sydney, Australia   (2000)

The turn-of-the-century Sydney Summer Olympics were named the “Green Games” by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and were designed to introduce a more environmentally conscious way of hosting the event. The structure that best shows Sydney’s efforts to be an example of continuing Olympic development is the ANZ Stadium.

【1】Where does the host city get the Olympic torch lit?

A.At the Panathenaic Stadium.

B.At the Montjuic Stadium.

C.At the Olympic Sports Complex.

D.At the ANZ Stadium.

【2】Who will probably choose to visit St. Moritz?

A.Those interested in nature.

B.Those fond of ice-sports.

C.Those fond of city tours.

D.Those interested in Olympic history.

【3】What’s special about Sydney Olympic Games?

A.Their designers were from Spain.

B.They were thought poorly of by the IOC.

C.They were hosted in an environmentally friendly way.

D.Their design intention were proposed by Sydney authority.

22、It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.

The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货), saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.

I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.

People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity(人性)as a whole. And it has influenced(影响)us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.

1Why was the bike so important to the couple?

A. The man’s job was bike racing.

B. It was their only possession.

C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.

D. They used it for work and daily life.

2We can infer from the text that ____________.

A. the couple worked 60 hours a week.

B. people were busy before Christmas

C. the stranger brought over the bike

D. life was hard for the young family.

3How did people get to know the couple’s problem?

A. From radio broadcasts.

B. From a newspaper.

C. From TV news.

D. From a stranger.

23、   James Harrison is called “The Man With the Golden Arm”. The Australian man has saved the lives of more than 2.4 million babies by donating blood nearly every week for 60 years.

At the age of 14, Harrison had an 11-hour operation to remove a lung. “I received 13 units of blood and my life was saved by unknown people,” Harrison said. “When I’m old enough, I’ll become a blood donor.”

That is exactly what Harrison did Soon afterward, the doctor told him that his blood contains the rare antibody that can help mothers who have rhesus disease, a condition where a pregnant woman’s blood attacks the blood cells of her fetus(胎儿). In the worst case, it can result in brain damage or death of the baby. And until about 1967, thousands of babies died each year in Australia.

Before long, researchers had developed an injection(注射剂), called Anti-D, using Harrison’s donated blood. Because about 17 percent of pregnant women in Australia require the Anti-D injections, the blood service estimates Harrison has helped about 2.4 million babies in the county. At the age of 81, he had already passed the age limit allowed for donors, and the blood service had suggested Harrison should stop donating to ensure his health.

Harrison was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia in recognition of his extraordinary efforts and generosity, but he doesn’t consider himself a hero. He has donated his blood 1,173 times, which breaks the Guinness World Records. But in all those times of donating blood, he has never once watched. “I look at the celling or the nurses and maybe talk with them. I feel faint at the sight of blood, and I can’t stand the pain.”

【1】What contributed to Harrison’s becoming a blood donor?

A.The rare antibody in his blood.

B.His gratitude to the blood donors.

C.The request from the blood service.

D.His pain during the removal of his lung.

【2】What’s Anti-D used to do?

A.Save babies by giving them injections.

B.Protect babies from common illnesses.

C.Cure pregnant mothers of rhesus disease.

D.Prevent women’s blood from being attacked.

【3】For what does Harrison break the Guinness World Records?

A.The age among blood donors.

B.The amount of blood he donated.

C.The number of donations he made.

D.The number of babies he saved by donating.

【4】What does the author think of Harrison?

A.He is kind and curious.

B.He is generous and modest

C.He is selfless and shy.

D.He is sympathetic and cautious.

24、   Vinegar is great. It makes salad, fries and dumplings taste better, and you can even clean your windows with it. And now, according to scientists, it may even help the planet's population survive climate change. Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Sustainable Resource Science(CSRS)in Japan proved that. They found growing plants in vinegar makes them more resistant to droughts. This could mean that in the future, worries about climate change affecting the world's supply of food will be much lower.

The discovery was made after the researchers studied the Arabidopsis, a plant known for its ability to survive, in dry weather. It was found that when the plant was placed in drought-like conditions, it produced a chemical called acetate (醋酸盐)-the main component of vinegar.

After discovering this, the scientists experimented further by adding acetate to the soil of other plants before they stopped giving them water completely. After leaving the plants for 14 days, they found that the ones treated with acetate had survived, while the untreated plants had dried up and died.

It's hoped that this simple method of survival could soon be used to help farmers in dry countries keep their crops alive. “In the experiment, we targeted the staple foods of the world—rice, wheat and maize(玉米)... and proved successful”, said Jong Myong Kim, co-author of the study.

Kim has already been in touch with people around the world who are interested in trying this simple and cost-effective method out for themselves from farmers to companies and amateur gardeners, “Now we are trying to cooperate with them to make a method to apply this system, and make the process as simple as possible,” he said. Hopefully this means the end of hunger caused by bad weather in the future.

【1】What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A.Vinegar may help creatures survive bad weather.

B.Vinegar is found in plants by Japanese scientists.

C.Vinegar is very useful for cooking a good meal.

D.Vinegar is mainly used by people to clean houses.

【2】Scientists in Japan find from their studies that __________.

A.the Arabidopsis could survive in dry weather because of the shape

B.soil condition could be changed by pouring vinegar continually

C.the acetate can be used by farmers to replace the soil

D.the plants treated with acetate could survive dry conditions

【3】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.It's too difficult for farmers to accept the method.

B.How to decrease the cost is the main issue.

C.The method is promising especially in agriculture.

D.Keeping plants alive means a lot for scientists.

【4】Where is this text most probably taken from?

A.Medical journal

B.Science magazine

C.Health weekly

D.Food magazine
