第一节 阅读理解 (共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)

A
Dust storms do not only happen to big deserts; they can appear in any dry places where loose soil is easily lifted by strong winds. When a storm arises, the heavier sand particles quickly return to the ground within hours. However, finer dust particles (粒子) can remain hung in the atmosphere for weeks, traveling thousands of miles. For instance, dust from the Sahara Desert frequently flows across the Atlantic Ocean, sometimes reaching as far as the Caribbean islands.
What makes dust storms particularly alarming is their great size. These storms can expand over hundreds of miles. With wind speeds of at least 40 km/h (25 mph), they may not be powerful enough to remove feathers from a bird, but they are still strong and need to be taken seriously.
The unpredictability of dust storms adds to their danger. They often come suddenly, creating a thick wall of dust that greatly reduces visibility. This makes driving especially dangerous, as vehicles caught in a storm are at high risk of crashing. If you find yourself driving during such a storm, the safest course of action is to pull over and turn off your headlights to avoid being mistaken for a moving vehicle.
Even in fairly weak dust storms, walking on foot can be extremely difficult, if not impossible. The dust in the air blocks sight and can cause breathing discomfort. Moreover, the strong winds that come with these storms can leave an area looking as though it has just suffered from a violent storm. Seeking shelter indoors remains the most suitable choice.
1. What is mentioned about dust storms in the first paragraph
A. Dust storms only happen in deserts.
B. Dust particles from the Sahara can travel a long distance.
C. Dust storms are always dangerous.
D. Sand quickly falls back to the ground after a storm.
2. Which of the following best describes dust storms
A. They develop gradually and disappear quickly.
B. They are predictable and mostly harmless.
C. They cause serious dangers due to their size and strength.
D. They mostly affect desert areas and have minimal impact elsewhere.
3. What should a person do when caught in a mild dust storm
A. Seek indoor shelter to avoid the harmful effects of dust and wind.
B Continue walking while covering their face with a cloth.
C. Remain outside and wait for the storm to pass.
D. Wear protective gear and keep moving toward a safe location.
B
What is the first thing that pops into your mind when someone mentions a construction site Is it the dusty air, the noise of heavy machinery, the toiling workers soaked (湿透的) with sweat or the quiet enjoyment of books
The latter is certainly what one construction site in Xiamen city, East China’s Fujian province, is now known for. It quickly became the focus of attention on World Book Day, which fell on Saturday, thanks to a construction contractor (承包商) building a library for the site’s 200-plus workers.
The library is located in a portable container that is around 18 square meters. It was set up by China Construction Third Engineering Bureau Group Co, earlier this month to promote reading and bring knowledge and pleasure to the construction workers.
Over 2,000 books in different categories, are neatly placed on shelves. On the wall hangs a bulletin board listing six rules for borrowing books. The room is air-conditioned so the workers can read comfortably there.
“I like reading all kinds of books, ranging from nonfiction to romantic novels. The library has them all,” says Li Chenghai, a migrant worker from Southwest China’s Sichuan province.
Compared with playing games on mobile phones or getting hooked on short-video apps, Li prefers reading as books can help him remain calm and broaden his horizons.
Li’ s view is echoed by his fellow worker Dongqun, who also comes from Sichuan. Dong is more interested in books on health, cooking and parenting. “The work at the construction site is tiring. I want to learn something to keep myself healthy and inspire me in my daily life,” Dong says. She has worked on many construction sites, but this is the only one with a library.
Yi Jingxing, a 45-year-old worker, also frequents the library. “I like martial arts novels. Whenever I am free after work, I come here to read,” says Yi, who dreamed of being a martial arts hero as a kid.
4. Which of the following statement is similar to the underlined sentence
A. Dong disagrees with Li about the value of reading.
B. Unlike Li, Dong thinks reading is only useful for entertainment.
C. Dong reads mainly because she wants to escape from work, while Li reads to stay calm.
D. Dong’s view is quite similar to that of Li’s.
5. What may be the author’s attitude towards building the library in the construction site
A. Opposed. B. Objective. C. Favorable. D. Neutral.
6. Where can you find this piece of reading
A. A travel journal. B. A research report.
C. A news account. D. A collection of fiction.
C
Renowned British physicist Stephen Hawking died peacefully at his home in the British university city of Cambridge in March 14 at age 76.
Hawking, whose 1988 book “A Brief History of Time” became an unlikely worldwide bestseller and cemented (奠定) his superstar status, dedicated his life to unlocking the secrets of the Universe. He held the post of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, which is a position that was once held by Sir Isaac Newton.
Born in 1942 in Oxford, where his parents spent the final months of pregnancy to avoid the bombings of London, Hawking was said to have been a good student although it wasn’t until he was in his 20s that his true potential began to really shine through. Having initially wanted to study Mathematics, Stephen Hawking chose, instead, to read natural sciences with emphasis on Physics.
Having found University life boring, so much so that he joined the University rowing team to relieve the boredom, it was only following an oral examination that he was awarded a first class degree.
While at Cambridge, Hawking was diagnosed with a motor neurone (神经元)disease. He was initially given two to three years to live. The illness gradually robbed him of mobility, leaving him confined to a wheelchair, almost completely paralysed and unable to speak except through his trademark voice synthesiser (合成器).
Stephen Hawking led an incredible and well documented life. He was referred to in many TV programs, films, and even songs, and appeared as himself in a number of programs including Red Dwarf and the Big Bang Theory. His genius and wit won over fans from far beyond the world of astrophysics (天体物理学), earning comparisons with Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton.
7. Which of the following is true about “A Brief History of Time”
A. It is not popular with common readers. B. It is about the secrets of the universe.
C. It mainly deals with Mathematical problems. D. It was impossible to be a bestseller.
8. Why did Hawking join the University rowing team
A. To improve his health. B. To make his university life less boring.
C. To improve his grade in university. D. To reduce the effect of his disease.
9. What do we learn about Stephen Hawking from the last paragraph
A. He didn’t like to appear in any programs.
B. He is only recognized in the world of astrophysics.
C. He is not as famous as Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton.
D. He was multi-talented.
10. What is the text mainly about
A. Life and achievements of Stephen Hawking.
B. The death of Stephen Hawking.
C. Early life of Stephen Hawking.
D. Stephen Hawking and his work.

4. ____16____

B. Let completed drafts rest before editing.
