第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

A
Magazine sales have generally been falling since the day the inventor of the Internet said, “Hey, why don’t I invent the Internet?”
But the latest ABC figures, released this week, show that sales of certain titles are actually going up. News and current affairs magazines are becoming more popular—but celebrity (名人), gossip and fashion publications are still struggling.
“Gossip and celebrity news is rarely something that requires detailed analysis—so it’s best suited to bite-sized content on social media,” says Ian Burrell, media columnist for The Drum. “Once it’s out there, it’s quickly shared and readers move on to the next star. No one wants to wait a week to read about it in a print magazine.”
Fraser Nelson, editor of The Spectator, wrote this week: “There’s now too much writing online, and in an era of fake news, where you get your analysis from has never been more important. As newspapers and magazines are finding out, if you can publish writing that is consistently better than what can be found online, people will pay.”
But many editors are struggling to strike the right balance between physical and digital content. They are faced with the choice of either posting all their articles online for free so the magazine stays relevant, or charging readers money to protect the financial future of the brand.
As Burrell points out, most readers are hungry for a deeper understanding of the fast-moving changes in global news and politics rather than seeking to escape from it by burying their heads in celebrity gossip and entertainment stories.
Serious times call for serious journalism. While general-interest daily news has been turned into an almost universally available commodity (商品) by the Internet, specialist journalism is still a service people value and think they can’t get elsewhere.
21. What does Ian Burrell think of celebrity news?
A. It isn’t worth reading. B. It isn’t worth analyzing.
C. It should be read carefully. D. It should appear on magazines.
22. What did Fraser Nelson mainly stress?
A. The importance of news sources.
B. The significance of current affairs.
C. The value of newspapers and magazines.
D. The balance between physical and digital content.
23. What can be inferred from Burrell’ s opinion in Paragraph 6?
A. Most readers are fond of rapid changes.
B. Most readers tend to escape from reality.
C. Most readers like entertainment news best.
D. Most readers show great interest in global news and politics.
24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Where Magazines Will Go in the Future.
B. What Makes Some Magazines Disappear.
C. How Magazines Are Surviving the Digital Age.
D. Why People Are Still Reading Fashion Publications.
B
It’s exciting to imagine how future humans will have solved the problems we have now, or what amazing new inventions will make our lives more convenient and interesting. We asked top scientists to
share their predictions on what the world will be like in a century. If they’re right, the 2114 is going to be really cool.
1. Robots will do your chores and more.
Robots will be doing most of our jobs, from building homes to teaching math. There are already robots that clean floors and pump gas. In the future they will be more complicated and useful. Unfortunately, with robots taking all the jobs, unemployment will be high.
2. You will read minds.
Speaking of being social, we will communicate in an entirely different way. Forget texts and emails. Mindreading technology will allow us to send thoughts to each other without speaking a word. We will also be able to send thoughts to objects around us. (Instead of pressing “start” on the microwave, you could just think “start”.) Meanwhile, chips implanted(植入) in our brains will improve memory and intelligence.
3. Your car will drive you.
Today, around 30,000 Americans die in car accidents each year. One hundred years from now, accidents will be a thing of the past. According to Mark Safford, consultant or the U.S. department of Transportation, future cars will drive themselves. These electric cars will communicate with other cars on the road to travel safely in close formation at high speeds.
4. You will eat fake meat.
Raising animals is not an efficient way to produce food, and it harms the environment. Cows, chickens, and pigs eat a lot, and then we have to deal with all that poop(粪便). What’s more, that poop can poison lakes, rivers, and streams. Today, scientists can “grow” meat in a lab from animal cells, but it’s expensive and not very delicious. In the future, they will have perfected the process. You’ll order hamburgers that come from factories, not cows. Scientists may even find ways to make lab grown meat tastier and healthier than the real thing.
25. According to the passage, what is likely to happen when robots become more common in the future?
A. People will be much lazier. B. More people will lose their jobs.
C. People may become physically weaker. D. More people may become less intelligent.
26. Mind- reading technology will help people to ________.
A. have a good memory B. talk to other creatures
C. read books efficiently D. convey messages silently
27. According to the passage, in the future cars will be ________.
A. less popular B. more expensive
C. much easier to operate D. much smaller and lighter
28. Future meat will be ________.
A. much more harmless B. less tasty but healthier
C. more organic and delicious D. more environmentally friendly
C
The days of having to carry a phone charger everywhere could soon be over. Michigan researchers have revealed a major breakthrough in harvesting energy from human motion. They say it could lead to smart phones powered for a week by the motion of a swipe (重击).
Michigan State University’s low-cost device, known as a nano generator, has already been tested. Scientists’ success fully operated an LED touch screen, a bank of 20 LED lights and a flexible keyboard, all with a simple touching or pressing motion and without the aid of a battery. The groundbreaking findings, published in the journal Nano Energy, suggest “We’re on the path toward wearable devices powered by human motion,” said Nelson Sepulveda, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering and lead researcher of the project.
“What I foresee, relatively soon, is the capability of not having to charge your cellphone for an entire week, for example, because that energy will be produced by your movement,” said Sepulveda, whose research is funded by the National Science Foundation.
Electrical energy is created when the device is compressed by human motion. The completed device is as thin as a sheet of paper. The device used to power the LED lights was palm-sized, while the device used to power the touch screen was as small as a finger. Advantages such as being lightweight, flexible and low -cost could make it a promising and alternative method in the field of Mechanical-energy harvesting.
The device also becomes more powerful when folded. Sepulveda said, “You can start with a large device, but when you fold it once again and again, it’s much smaller and has more energy. Now it may be small enough to put in a specially made heel of your shoe so it creates power each time your heel strikes the ground.”
Sepulveda and his team are also developing technology that would transmit the power generated by the heel strike to, say, a wireless headset.
29. The underlined word “device” in the second paragraph probably refers to .
A. a piece of equipment B. a special kind of smart phone
C. a touch screen D. a flexible keyboard
30. What can we learn about Nelson Sepulveda in the passage?
A. He works as a journalist writing for Nano Energy.
B. He plays a major role in the project of the nano generator.
C. He invented a type of battery-free smart phone.
D. He collects funds for the National Science Foundation.
31. From the passage we know that the nano generator .
A. becomes more powerful when kept flat
B. has already come into market in the USA
C. is light weight and flexible though expensive
D. makes it possible to produce power by walking
32. The purpose of the passage is to .
A. persuade people to buy the device
B. bring in a new way to save energy
C. introduce a breakthrough in science
D. honor Nelson Sepulveda for his contributions
D
Purpose of the Wolfpacket
The Wolfpacket aims to inform students of current and relevant events and issues. Some items are published only to entertain but will follow the guidelines of the editorial policy. Since the Wolfpacket staff meets regularly, publication of the newspaper serves to educate both readers and staff members. The staff tries to be accurate and responsible, and follows some regulations as defined by the Society of Professional Journalists.
Content
The Wolfpacket staff determines what goes into the school paper and reserves the right to choose content and determine priority (优先级) of stories. Although the Wolfpacket emphasizes school news, it also covers community, state, national, and international news that the staff thinks relevant to students. Stories are evaluated for news value, entertainment value, timeliness, and a student angle. While most Wolfpacket articles will be written by the staff, we encourage other students, administrators and community members to consider the opinions section of the Wolfpacket to be open for discussion.
Editorials(社论)
Opinions and editorials are clearly labeled and separated from news items. Editorials represent the majority opinion of the staff and will be run under the heading “Editorial”. Individual opinions, which do not necessarily represent staff opinion, will be clearly distinguished from editorials.
Trivia(琐事)
The Wolfpacket staff is opposed to running gossip columns, such as holiday messages, April Fool’s jokes, and popularity surveys because the Wolfpacket tries to maintain a standard of professionalism in the content. We try to avoid any possible harm to students and other readers, no matter how much entertainment value these features might provide.
Time, Place and Manner of Distribution
The Wolfpacket is distributed free of charge on campus, except for the Homecoming issue, which is distributed during half-time at the football game. Additional copies may be available in the library and school office. Copies are mailed to subscribers (订阅者) and advertisers by the circulation manager. Subscriptions to the Wolpacket cost $20 for one year.
33. According to the passage, the Wolfpacket is most likely ______.
A. a book B. a website
C. a newspaper D. a TV program
34. The Wolfpacket focuses on ______.
A. school news B. community news
C. natioanl news D. international news
35. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. the development of the Wolfpacket B. the content of the Wolfpacket
C. the influence of the Wolfpacket D. the regulations of the Wolfpacket

The House of the Future
What will the house of the future be like？I think great changes will take place in the future houses.
Firstly, the building materials should be improved so that the temperature inside the house can be adjusted according to the weather. Secondly, the roof might have a garden which can allow people to keep the house cool and grow vegetables to eat. Thirdly, the color of the wall inside may change itself as the owner’s emotion changes. Lastly, all the appliances in the house will be controlled by the computer. For example, the housewife can cook a delicious meal as she works outside.
In a word, the house of the future should be co- friendly and a comfortable place to live in.
