第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

“Anyone who offends（冒犯）China will be killed no matter how far the target is.” That is the tagline for Wolf Warriors 2, the Chinese box office hit. It sees a soldier entering into an African war-zone and saving hundreds of lives from Western bad guys. It’s basically the plot of your typical Hollywood action movie, but this time it’s a Chinese man upholding justice and keeping the world safe.

Following in the footsteps of Jackie Chan and Jet Li, martial arts expert Wu Jing is among a new generation of Chinese action stars turned directors. His first Wolf Warrior film came out in 2014, but it didn’t catch much attention. Mainstream movies, especially those promoting patriotism（爱国主义）, usually don’t do very well in China. Wolf Warrior 2, however, has become a phenomenon. The massive response in China also made the film top the global box office worldwide last weekend, beating Hollywood blockbuster Dunkirk.

Many moviegoers said online that they were touched by the patriotic plot. “This movie is the best Chinese action movie,” one social media user wrote. “Shockingly good-hot blood and tough guys. I cried after watching it,” said another.

One reason for the enthusiastic response compared to the first Wolf Warrior film is its improved action scenes. Many in China have praised the film for its fighting scenes and special effects, saying they are of “Hollywood quality”. The movie, which is entirely privately funded, has also been lauded for its attention to detail and reportedly features close replicas（复制品）of many of the latest weapons used by the Chinese army. Timing has also contributed to its success, with the Chinese nation in the times of a new wave of patriotism.

The film first came out just ahead of the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese amy, a hugely symbolic eve nt for the country. Over the weekend, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) held a grand military parade, which presented the latest weapons of China. In a serous speech, which in parts was not different to lines from the film. President Xi Jinping promised to fight anyone who tried to tear China apart.

21. The text is meant to ________.

A. introduce a recent action movie

B. explain why Wu Jing is a successful director

C. compare Wolf Warriors 2 with Hollywood movies

D. claim that China is a super power in terms of weapons production

22. President Xi Jinping’s speech suggests that ________.

A. no one dares to fight with China

B. the military parade is very successful

C. China will become a developed country soon

D. China will oppose any attempt at national separation

23. The reason why Wolf Warriors 2 becomes a box office hit is that ________.

A. it doesn’t promote patriotism

B. its combat scenes are of higher quality

C. the weapons in the movie are the most advanced

D. Wu Jing is becoming better at directing after failing his first movie

24. According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A. Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Wu Jing were actors at first.

B. Social media users think highly of Wu Jing’s acting skills.

C. In the past, movies about patriotism often appeal to the public.

D. Dunkirk has attracted more audiences compared to Wolf Warriors 2.

25. The word “lauded” in paragraph 4 means ________.

A. encouraged

B. praised

C. criticized

D. awarded

B

First, I want to tell you how proud we are. Getting into Columbia shows what a great well-rounded student you are. Your academic, artistic, and social skills have truly blossomed（开花）in the last few years. You have become a talented and accomplished young woman. You should be as proud of yourself as we are.

College will be the most important years in your life. It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about. I want to tell you: “education is what you have left after all that is taught is forgotten”. What I mean by that is the materials ta ught isn’t as important as you gaining the ability to learn a new subject, and the ability to analyze a new problem. That is really what learning in college is about—this will be the period where you go from teacher-taught to master-inspired, after which you must become self-leaner.

Follow your passion in college. Take courses you think you will enjoy. Steve Jobs says when you are in college, your passion will create many dots, and later in your life you will connect them.in his great speech given at Stanford, he gave the great example where he took calligraphy（书法）, and a decade later, it became the basis of the beautiful letters in Microsoft Word. So don’t worry too much about what job you will have, and don’t be too utilitarian（功利的）, and if you like Japanese or Korean, go for it! Enjoy picking your dots, and be assured one day you will find your calling, and connect a beautiful curve through the dots.

Most importantly, make friends and be happy. College friends are often the best in life, because during college you are closer to them physically than to your mom and I. Pick a few friends and become really close to them-pick the ones who are honest and sincere to you. Don’t worry about their hobbies, grades, looks, or even personalities. You have developed some real friendships in high school in your last two years, so trust your instinct, and make new friends.

College is the four years where you have the greatest amount of free time, the first chance to be independent, the most possibilities to change and the lowest risk for making mistakes. So please treasure your college years! May Columbia become the happiest four years in your life, and may you blossom into just what you dream to be.

Want to see 16 sunrises in one day? Float in zero gravity? Be one of the few to have gazed upon our home planet from space? In just four years’ time, and for an astronomical $9.5 million dollars, it’s claimed you can.

What’s being billed as the world’s first luxury space hotel, Aurora Station, was announced Thursday at the Space 2.0 Summit in San Jose, California. Developed by US-based space technology start-up Orion Span, the fully modular space station will host six people at a time, including two crew members, for 12-day trips of space travel. It plans to welcome its first guests in 2022.

“Our goal is to make space accessible to all,” Frank Bunger, CEO and founder of Orion Span, said in a statement. “Upon launch, Aurora Station goes into service immediately, bringing travelers into space quickly and at a lower price point than ever seen b efore.” While a $10 million trip is outside the budget of most people’s two-week vacations, Orion Span claims to offer a real astronaut experience.

During their 12-day adventure, the super-rich travelers will fly at a height of 200 miles above the Earth’s surface in Low Earth Orbit, or LEP, where they will see incredible views of the blue planet. The hotel will orbit Earth every 90 minutes, which means guests will see around 16 sunrises and sunsets every 24 hours.

Activities on board include taking part in research experiments such as growing food while in orbit--which guests can take home for a super-smug souvenir—and soaring over their hometown. Guests can have live video

chats with their less-fortunate loved ones back home via high-speed wireless Internet access and, upon return to Earth, will be greeted with a specially arranged hero’s welcome. While enjoying the thrills of zero gravity, the travelers will be able to float freely through the hotel, taking in views of the northern and southern Aurora from the station’s windows.

The $80,000 is fully returnable, should applicants find themselves unable to rise to the full $9.5 million. Travelers will complete a three-month Orion Span Astronaut Certification (OSAC) program before takeoff. Orion Span has a team of space industry veterans who together have more than 140 years of human space experience.

31. What’s the purpose of questions in Paragraph 1?

A. To ask questions about space travel.

B. To describe what you can do in space.

C. To arouse interest and introduce the topic.

D. To tell us scientific facts about space and planet.

D. The space hotel can only host 4 guests at a time.

34. You can do many activities in space such as ________.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Parents and the Young

It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable being with their parents. They say that their parents don’t understand them. 36 And they tend to feel that their parents are too serious and too strict with their children, seldom giving their children a free hand.

Parents often find it difficult to win their children’s trust. And they always fo rget how they themselves felt when young. 37 It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up. But older people worry more easily; most of them plan things ahead.

Young people often make their parents angry with their choice in clothes, in entertainment and in music. 38 It is just that they feel cut off from the older people’s world, into which they have not yet been accepted. That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own, which makes their parents worried and upset.

Som etimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents say “yes” to what you do. 39 It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents’ control.

40 When your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.

A. So how should you understand that?

B. But they do not mean to cause any trouble.

C. All you want is to be left alone and do what you like.

D. If you plan to handle your life, try to win your parents over.

E. They think that their parents don’t keep pace with modern ways.

F. You will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it.

G. For example, young people like to act on the spot without much thinking.

Dear David,

I’m writing to invite you to join our reading club.

As we all know, reading books can increase our intellectual ability, broaden our minds and improve our taste. My friend and I have set up an English reading club recently to encourage us to read more.

Of course we’ll hold varieties of reading activities. We’ll provide chances for members of the club to exchange opinions on certain books so that they can learn from each other. Besides, we’ll recommend good books to members of the club.

You can visit our school website and sign up online. Meanwhile, you can turn to the students union for the same purpose. The deadline is June 10. So don’t miss it!

Yours, Li Hua
