三、阅读理解（四篇，共20题）
A 篇
A lot of people think that college is all about getting good grades, but there are a lot of other things you could be doing to make your college experience more pleasant.
Always make study friends
It’s way better to study with someone else rather than by yourself! If you have trouble focusing when studying, this will keep you off your phone and any other distractions, and you will feel the responsibility of actually studying since another person’s time is at stake. Make sure you are arranging study sessions with the people in your class. You can make group chats through different platforms for you to meet in the library or online.
Attend your professors’ office hours
Professors always have an enormous influence on your educational path. So, make sure they are getting to know you both as a person and as a student. Therefore, office hours are the perfect time for you to come to ask questions and show an interest in their class. Even if you don’t have good grades, it shows that you are trying hard, and they love that.
Check your email
Please make sure you have a valid email address. Almost everything you do in college will involve your email. This is how most professors and every other person in the university community will communicate with you and vice versa (反之亦然).
Review the material that you didn’t understand
Let’s be real: There are two or three days a week when we just feel out of it. We often simply feel a lot of tiredness and very little motivation. It becomes very hard for us to learn something new or remember it. That is OK and every college student feels this way sometimes!
The important thing here is how we make up for the lost time to still have good grades in our classes, and I can give you a very easy strategy to follow. The key is to review the topic or material you were supposed to understand in class later that same day. Please do this!

B 篇
In the glittering world of Olympic figure skating, where every move is judged under the harshest of lights, failures can be brutally exposed. It was during one such moment that Mario, a once-promising star, stumbled and fell, his dream crashing down with the thud (砰的一声) of the skate blades on the ice.
The initial shock was followed by a deep sense of despair. Doubts crept in, whispering that he might never rise again. Each day seemed darker than the last, as Mario struggled to find his footing in a world that suddenly felt so alien and unforgiving of himself.
But within this darkness, Mario began to forgive himself and accept the reality. He remembered the countless hours of training, the sacrifices made, and the love for the sport that had burned so brightly before. Slowly, he picked himself up, dusted off the ice shards of defeat, and began to skate again.
This time, it was different. Each fall became a lesson, each mistake an opportunity for growth. He learned to embrace his failures, using them as stepping stones to greater heights. With renewed determination, Mario pushed himself harder, skating with a newfound grace and power.
Finally, the day arrived when our hero stepped onto the Olympic ice once more. This time, there was no fear, only focus. As the music swelled and he began his routine, every move flowed with effortless elegance. When the final note rang out, he knew he had done it. This young man had risen from the ashes of failure and embraced success again, stronger and more brilliant than before.
As the crowd erupted in applause and the athlete stood center ice, a single tear traced down his cheek. It was a tear of joy, relief, and pride — a testament to the journey he had endured. At that moment, he understood that failure was not the end, but rather a beginning — a chance to rise stronger, wiser, and more determined. And so, Mario smiled, knowing that the road ahead, no matter how bumpy, would be filled with the sweet taste of victory and the knowledge that true success comes from overcoming the toughest challenges.

C．He practiced more than before and endured all pains and hurts.
D．He changed himself into a stronger, smarter and more powerful man.
43. Mario is a young man with the merit of ________.
A．toughness and sentiments
B．hard work and elegance
C．perseverance and resilience
D．generosity and humility
44. What can we learn from this story
A．Failure is the mother of success.
B．Chances favor the prepared mind.

C．The Harsh Judging in Olympic Figure Skating
D．The Sweet Taste of Transient Victory
C 篇
For thousands of years, donkeys have been critical for driving human civilizations forward. They’ve helped pull wheeled vehicles, carry travelers and move goods across the world. But where and when these animals first became closely connected with humans has been a mystery. Now, researchers have used genomes of over 200 donkeys to trace their domestication back to a single event around 7,000 years ago in East Africa — about 3,000 years before humans tamed horses. The team published their findings in the journal Science this month.
“Through their DNA, the animals are telling their history themselves,” co-author Samantha Brooks, an equine researcher at the University of Florida, says in a statement. “We usually only get the human’s side of history through written accounts, but of course written history does not always record exactly how something happened. Looking at these DNA sequences, we get biological evidence to the environment these animals lived in and the experiences they survived.”
The researchers examined 207 genomes from modern donkeys living in 31 countries across the globe. They also looked at genomes from 15 wild equids (马科动物) and 31 earlier donkeys that lived between about 4,000 and 100 years ago. The team reconstructed the animals’ evolutionary tree and used computer models to pinpoint the domestication event, when herders (牧人) in Kenya and the Horn of Africa tamed wild donkeys. They then traced how the animals spread across the rest of the continent into Europe and Asia about 2,500 years later.
Though it’s still unclear why the original domestication happened, Science News’ Freda Kreier reports that the event coincided with the Sahara growing larger and drier. “Donkeys are champions when it comes to carrying stuff and are good at going at Sahara deserts,” co-author Ludovic Orlando, an evolutionary biologist at Paul Sabatier University in France, tells the publication. Prehistoric humans may have enlisted donkeys’ help in navigating the expanding Sahara.
Researchers say these findings could help put donkeys in the spotlight. The animals could benefit from more research: Currently, there are no published genomes from donkeys located south of the Equator in Africa. But understanding where the animals were first domesticated could guide archaeologists to a narrower region to search for insights about the original tamed donkeys.
Not only does understanding the equines’ genetic makeup help reveal their contribution to human history, but it also might improve their management in the future, as climate change alters the planet’s environment, write the authors.
46. What can be learned about donkeys from Paragraph 1
A．They seemed mysterious to human ancestors.
B．They underwent multiple domestication events.
C．They were tamed at an earlier time than horses.
D．They were vividly described by ancient travelers.
47. What message is conveyed in Brooks’ statement
A．The earliest habitats of donkeys are hardly traceable.
B．It is increasingly easy to read donkeys’ DNA sequences.
C．Written accounts contain vital clues for donkey research.
D．Genetic analysis offers insight into the history of donkeys.
48. In their study, the researchers investigate how donkeys ________.
A．spread widely in the world
B．survived with the help of herders
C．developed certain behavioral traits
D．adapted to the changing environment
49. As to why the original domestication of donkeys happened, Orlando ________.
A．challenges conventional ideas
B．provides a possible explanation
C．calls for evidence from the Sahara
D．holds a different view from Kreier
50. The authors think that their research could help with ________.
A．greater protection of wildlife
B．better management of donkeys
C．recovering early types of donkeys
D．raising awareness of climate change
D 篇
In 1999, Google hired its 53rd employee called Charlie Ayers. This employee was unique. He didn’t develop software, nor did he have business knowledge. In fact, he just worked for a famous band. But Charlie won a cooking competition held by the company. Then, he became the company’s chef. He would help Google feed its employees. Since then, Google’s policy of free snacks has been copied.
This policy may make sense for some companies since employees don’t need to travel far to eat. The companies think it can also improve traffic during lunch hour. But firms’ free-snack policy has been attacked by politicians. They believe it extremely reduces the number of customers of local restaurants, which causes many of them to break down and eventually harms the relevant industry. So, officials are preventing Facebook opening a canteen at its new campus.
There have been many theories explaining what motivate firms to provide free snacks. Some argue it’s a firm’s dirty trick to keep workers working for longer hours. Others argue it’s about helping the firm attract talents. Still others say rich firms are just generous and that their generosity, in turn, makes their workers happier and more productive. All of these may contribute to the firms’ free snacks.
Google says its food system is about promoting teamwork and creativity. The idea is that it provides chances to bond and exchange ideas when employees randomly meet and eat together. This, they believe, encourages creativity. While free snacks might increase the amount of time employees spend in the office, the theory that it increases creativity lacks evidence. Actually, evidence suggests unlimited candy and chips in the break room will affect people’s cognitive performance, which might eventually prevent workers from thinking intelligently. It’s no wonder that some Google’s competitors rejected the food policy.
If companies want workers to exchange ideas, regular meals can make it. A better food system for companies is one where workers would be given a credit card for food purchases. Some colleges have a similar food system, which offers discount to fruits and vegetables and places an extra cost on junk food—junk food, after all could end up increasing the company’s health insurance bills.
There’s no such thing as a free lunch. The same is true for snacks.
51. Why does the author mention Charlie Ayers in Paragraph 1
A．To offer the background of the text.
B．To introduce the topic of the passage.
C．To expand understanding of the topic.
D．To show the structure of the passage.
52. What do politicians think of firms’ free-snack policy
A．It does increase the employees’ creativity.
B．It’s beneficial to local transportation.
C．It strengthens the unity of the firms’ employees.
D．It brings negative effect on local restaurants.
53. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about
A．The possible causes of some firms’ free-snack policy.
B．The importance of the free snack policy.
C．The benefits of free-snack policy to workers.
D．The oppositions to the free snack policy.
54. Why do some companies decline the free snack policy
A．They are unaware of its positive influence.
B．They consider it a big financial burden.
C．They think it weakens employees’ creativity.
D．They find it unattractive to many employees.
55. Which of the following will the author agree with
A．Companies should increase their insurance bills on workers.
B．Colleges’ food systems tend to be superior to companies’.
C．A good food system can give discounts to any food.
D．Free snacks are unnecessary in the companies.
四、阅读表达
When Marco was a boy, he tried everything to get his father’s love and attention. He worked hard to earn exceptional marks; he chose inspiring friends and always tried to behave well.
At the age of eight his parents divorced, and Marco and his young sister Sandra moved in with their dad. It felt to Marco that his father had little time for him and Sandra. Marco sank further into his low self-esteem and was overwhelmed with feeling desperately unappreciated, alone and isolated.
One day his father, already tired after a long day, tripped over Marco’s bike in the garage. The fierce fight that followed left Marco feeling humiliated (羞辱). It seemed no matter how hard he tried he could never do anything right.
Two days later, his aunt Ginette called him. She said she had just seen some young teenagers participate in a public speaking contest called Gala Personnalite sponsored by Club Optimiste. She thought he should give it a try. She told him she firmly believed he could perform on stage like the other kids, since she had seen him do humorous performances for the family at Christmas. Feeling her strong belief, Marco agreed to enter the contest.
All that winter of 1980 to 1981, he practiced in Ville d’Anjou, where the competition would take place. The hours and the obstacles no longer counted. The criticism from his father didn’t matter. Four months later, the big night arrived. His mother, his sister, his grandmother, and his aunt Ginette, were all in the audience. Butterflies filled his stomach. But when he stepped onto the stage and began to speak, he felt totally at home. To his shock and amazement, he WON!
As I travel around the world to speak to thousands of people every year, I tell them Marco’s story. I tell them his story because it is my story.
It all happened because of a single phone call, from one single person who simply believed in me. Because of her, I have been able to more than fulfill my dreams. I’ve been able to inspire and to touch the lives of so many others—and help them fulfill theirs.

参考范文
Dear Chris,
I’m delighted to hear that you will hold the activity "Approaching China". I totally support your great idea and I’d like to give you some suggestions.
First of all, I recommend holding a Chinese paper-cutting show. Paper-cutting is a traditional Chinese folk art with a long history. Students can enjoy beautiful works and even learn to make simple paper-cuts themselves. Besides, a Chinese tea art performance is also a wonderful choice. You can introduce different kinds of Chinese tea and show people how to make and taste tea properly.
I believe these activities will let your classmates experience real Chinese culture. I sincerely hope this activity will help British students know more about China and build a closer bond between us.
Looking forward to your good news.
Yours,
Li Jin
