第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）
第一节（共10个小题；每小题2. 5分，满分25分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、 B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸
上将该项涂黑。
A
There is a large table in our dining room, pressed against the wall. Nothing is too special-it
contains plates, cups and bowls. But tons of pictures are neatly arranged in tiny frames(镜框),
sitting on the table next 1o the bowls of fruits or hung up right above it. Some pictures have been
sitting there for years, before I was even born maybe, and others came along during the years,
slowly piling up. I took most of these pictures, with my phone or my grandfather’s camera.
I touched a silver frame, with beautiful designs decorating the sides. Inside the frame was a
picture of my brother and me in ski helmets and glasses, holding up our skies proudly. It was
when I was around nine or ten. I was in a pink ski jacket, peppered with pieces of snow. My
brother hung an arm round my thin shoulder, both smiling at the camera.
My fingers slid down the frame. I remember printing this one out. Our photo printer did not
work, but I was so determined to do so. We bought a new one, shaped like a tiny red box. Using
my phone, we connected it to the printer and there we went.
I tapped on the top of another frame. This was a glued collage(拼贴画) I made in the 4th
grade. I glued a bunch of pictures of all of us: Mom, Dad, my brother and I. It was always just the
four of us, together.
Pictures always attract me. It allows you a moment in time-a frozen frame. Life is like a
video, constantly playing as if you were stuck in a movie with the inability to stop. Pictures could
stop that, stop the mess and craziness in life. and keep a piece of the world in a frame.
21. Why does the author mention the table in the dining room in paragraph 1?
A. To give tips on how to make table decorations.
B. To stress the importance of a table in a dining room.
C. To introduce the pictures that matter a great deal to him.
D. To compare the value of the table and the photos he took.
22. Which of the following might be well kept in the author’s memory?
A. The process of designing picture frames.
B. The experience of going skiing with his brother.
C. The scene where his family made a glued collage together.
D. The day when he searched for a new printer shop after shop.
23. According to the last paragraph, the author prefers to _________.
A. stay inside the comfort zone B. follow a fixed daily routine
C. develop the ability to adjust to change D. live a life at a controlled pace
B
There is a growing trend that people start cooking more at home, which, by reasonable
assumption, creates more leftovers. Those leftovers can be a convenient future meal, but they have
got a dark side.
If you put an item(食物) on a plate that is a leftover, there is a higher probability that you are
not going to fully costume that item. And so, it is probably going to go to waste.
Brian Roe and his colleagues, from the Ohio State University, recently studied leftovers and
food waste by tracking the eating habits of 18 men and women in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The
participants tracked what they ate using an iPhone app. And during the weeklong study, the study
subjects collectively piled 1,200 different foods on their plates.
After analyzing what got eaten, saved, or thrown away, the researchers found that leftovers
were more likely to be picked at, and not fully eaten, they also observed leftovers, perhaps due to
being older and less fresh, directed diners’ attention to the other, more novel items on their plates,
which brings up an interesting possible way to get people to eat their vegetables. I guess if you
have an item you do not normally eat as much of, and you are trying to get people to eat their peas,
perhaps surrounding it with leftovers is a way to make them focus on the newest item on the plate.
Overall, Roc said one bigger lesson emerged(产生), on how to avoid throwing food into the
dustbin. “For us, the real take-home here is to choose a smaller meal and you’re less likely to
create leftovers. And that is a good thing, because leftovers tend to be wasted more often.” Roc
added, “I’m guilty of this myself-we have things left over from last. New Year still sitting in our
freezer. And I know people who have moved with frozen items before, without ever getting
around to eating them.”
24. What does the underlined part in paragraph 1 suggest?
A. People eat up leftovers more quickly. B. Leftovers seem to be darker in color.
C. People would rather choose leftovers. D. Leftovers tend to end up being wasted.
25. Based on the research, one useful way to make people cat peas is _________.
A. to replace leftovers with peas B. to combine new items and peas
C. to offer peas together with leftovers D. to supply as few peas as possible
26. Why is Roe ashamed of keeping leftovers in the freezer for long?
A. It is a kind of waste in a way. B. It is a wrong way 1o store food.
C. It is a bad habit related to diet. D. It is a stupid idea of saving money.
C
Why is it that big life decisions-whether to have kids, marry a specific person, choose one job
over another-can be so worrying? Obviously, it is because they really matter. Yet, on closer
inspection, that cannot be the whole story. Other decisions “really matter”, too: whether to seek
medical help when you break your leg; whether to use a glove to handle an extremely hot dish.
But they are not worrying at all. They are so straightforward that it sounds strange even to think of
them as decisions.
Perhaps what makes decisions worrying is that they matter and there is too much uncertainty
to know which option to choose. That sounds more reasonable. But as the US psychology
professor Tania Lombrozo points out, if no single option clearly stands out, then your decision
does not much matter. You could just flip (掷) a coin, or, as Lombrozo puts it: “Hard decisions
should be easy.” This is Fredkin’s paradox(悖论), which can be explained as “The more equally
attractive two alternatives seem, the harder it can be to choose between then. But, to some degree,
the choice can only matter less.”
Since you are unable to know how things will turn out, overthinking is useless. We worry
much, as if hoping through great efforts to see into the future. In the worst case, we end up
choosing none of the potentially good options, but a very bad one, instead. That applies to the
hungry and thirsty donkey (驴), positioned between grass and water, and stays rooted to the spot,
thus starving to death.
Merely knowing about Fredkin’s paradox probably will not reduce your tendency to
overthinking. But it can provide comfort when a decision turns out to have been bad. You can
remind yourself that you truly could not have known. Alan Watts once observed that the process
we call “deciding”-moving gradually towards a decision-is frequently no such thing. Rather, it is
just a period of flipping back and forth between options, followed by a sudden and semirandom
choice. We might as well admit that.
27. The author introduces the topic of the text by _________.
A. offering suggestions on how to face dilemmas
B. explaining the reason for people’s worries in life
C. comparing big life decisions with other decisions
D. throwing doubt on a theory about decision making
28. Which of the following is in line with Fredkin’s paradox?
A. Sometimes it is not that important what you decide.
B. Whatever option you choose is the best one ever.
C. There is not so much certainty about your options.
D. It is easy 1o decide when your options are similar.
29. What is the author’s advice when it comes to making big decisions?
A. We should learn from past choices.
B. We should stop thinking too much.
C. We should carefully weigh each option.
D. We should see into the future through efforts.
30. What would be the best title for the text?
A. What is the secret of making good decisions?
B. It is necessary to know about Fredkin’s paradox
C. Remind yourself the random choice really matters
D. Why do we find it so difficult to make big decisions?
