第二部分 阅读理解(满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
21.(6分)Tired of eating at the same boring restaurants? Looking for a change? Here are some restaurants that offer an original restaurant experience. See for yourself which ones you fancy.
An Exciting Dinner
Looking for something adventurous? The Archipelago in London is just the thing for you. One of the most popular dishes in this restaurant is crocodile. Yes, you read it correctly, crocodile. If that is not daring enough for you, there are plenty of other dishes on the menu.
A Restaurant with a View
Want to enjoy the sights while you’re eating? Try the Top of the World restaurant. At about 244 meters above Las Vegas, diners can enjoy a spectacular view of Las Vegas in this revolving restaurant. However, the real adventure starts at the end of the meal. That’s when the customers are taken from their seats at ground level to the observation rooms in elevators that travel at a remarkable speed.
A Theatrical Experience
Longing for dinner with some drama? Dine with mimes at Mime in Manchester. The service is unique. Your waiter will communicate your order in mime and keep you entertained with performances in between courses.
An Unusual Setting
Don’t care about presentation? You’ll be fine at the Modern Toilet restaurant in Taiwan. The theme of this restaurant is the toilet, and you would be surprised how many people queue up for the experience of eating on toilet seats.
1、What would you expect at the Top of the World restaurant? A.A free ride. B.An interesting menu.
C.A show during the meal. D.A bird’s-eye view of London. 2、Which restaurant requires customers to order in an unusual way? A.Archipelago. B.Top of the Word. C.Mime. D.Modem Toilet.
3、Where is the passage likely to be taken from?
A.A research paper. B.An entertainment magazine. C.A thrilling novel. D.A fashion magazine.
22.(8分)We all have some people whom we respect very much, like our family members, our friends or our teachers.
Respect often means different things to different people. There are several aspects that many people can agree on, though. For example, at its most basic level, respect means being kind and considerate to others.
Respect can take many forms. Don’t make fun of others. Put yourself in other people’s shoes and think about how they feel. Remember the Golden Rule: treat others the same way you’d want to be treated.
Respect is important because it sets the proper stage for all our human interactions. Friendship, love, and even basic communication must all start with respect.
Everyone wants to be respected. To get respect, though, you must also show respect for others. It’s always a two-way street. You can’t be impolite to others and expect respect in return.
It’s easy to show respect. Be polite. Look for the best in people rather than concentrating on their mistakes. Show compassion to others and try to put their interests before your own. Make others comfortable when they’re uneasy. Help out whenever you can. When you pay it forward, amazing things can happen.
And be respectful to everyone. The world is an unbelievably huge place filled with billions of people, each one of whom is unique and special. And they all deserve your respect!
Be careful, though. Not everyone will show you respect all the time. In fact, you’ll probably see examples of impolite behaviour each and every day. How you respond to impolite behaviour, though, can make a huge difference.
If you choose to respond to impolite behaviour by acting rudely yourself, you’ve gained nothing. You’ve only continued the pattern of impolite behaviour and set a bad example. Instead, act respectfully and set a good example. Consistently acting respectfully might just help others learn from your example! 1、According to the Golden Rule, __________. A.you’d better walk in others’ shoes B.you can’t play jokes on other people C.you should pay attention to your feelings D.the way you are treated depends on yourself
2、By saying “It’s always a two-way street” in Paragraph 4, the writer probably wants to tell us “______”. A.People should respect each other B.It is always safe to walk in the street C.Some leave and others come back D.There is only one street to go through 3、The fifth paragraph is mainly written to tell us ______. A.where to find respect B.how to correct mistakes
C.when to help others in time D.how to show respect for others 4、According to the passage, what should we do if someone is impolite to us? A.Show him/her true respect. B.Leave him/her alone.
C.Be kind to him/her sometimes. D.Set a special example to others.
23.(8分)In America, each of the states likes to promote itself with a slogan (口号). I currently live in Utah, where the slogan is ‘“Life Elevated”. It’s a nod to outdoor entertainment in the hill country, including the ski industry. I previously lived in Colorado, a land with red dm. great mountains and golden plains. The slogan there is ‘‘Colorful
Colorado”. Years ago I lived in the “Peach State” of Georgia, and I grew up in New Mexico as a little boy, whose slogan is “Land of Enchantment (魔力)”.
We never seemed to get away from dust in New Mexico, so I appreciate the story of a newcomer to the Land of Enchantment who learned about dusty wind. She was visiting an antique shop and the owner wiped down every item before showing it. The newcomer said, “Everything gets dusty here pretty quickly, doesn’t it?” “That’s not dust, honey,” the shop owner replied, “That’s ENCIIANTMENT”. That made the problem more acceptable or at least can be live with. An escalator (自动扶梯) broke, so he posted a sign to warn customers. He chose not to use the traditional “Out of Order” or “Do Not Use” warnings. Instead, his sign read, “This Escalator Is Temporarily a Stairway”. He turned a minus into humor and made it a plus.
And in fact there arc sonic things, like the weather, we can’t change. All we can change is our ways that we think and feel about them. I believe one of the best techniques to do this is to find some humor in the situation. Finding something amusing or enjoyable of difficulty, a troublesome problem can be one of the most creative and effective things we can do. Sometimes the only sense you can make of a situation is a sense of humor. 1、How many places has the author lived in from the first paragraph? A.2. B.3. C.4. D.5.
2、How would the newcomer probably feel after hearing what the shop owner said? A.Angry. B.Relaxed. C.Curious. D.Nervous.
3、What’s the purpose of writing the text?
A.To encourage people to find the funny side in their daily life. B.To show the effects of using slogans to raise the position. C.To explain the skills of turning a disadvantage into humor. D.To tell the strange experience of a bargain in an antique shop. 4、What dose the underlined word “it” in the Paragraph 2 refer to? A.Dust on items. B.The antique shop.
C.An item for sale. D.The Land of Enchantment. 24.(8分)THEATRE

When you eat out in a restaurant, it is not unusual to hear people yelling, “Let me get this one!” and 25.(10分)
sometimes see them pushing or arm wrestling to fight for the privilege of paying the bill.
These fights are often very loud and active. Each person involved shows an honest desire to pick up the bill, and in the end, all the people at the table give the winner praise and gratitude.
In fact, figuring out who will get the bill is always a headache for Chinese people at formal meals. Although the people hosting the meal are very likely to pay the check, it is a common practice to make a token (象征性的) effort to pay the bill, but you will embarrass them if you do end up actually chipping in (凑) some cash.
In recent years, going Dutch has been accepted by many young people. But older generations who fear “losing face” still find it embarrassing and mean to calculate each person’s share of the bill. As travel guide brand Lonely Planet noted, it is considered. “the height of unsophistication (不懂人情世故)”。
But these days, thanks to digital payment apps, splitting the bill electronically is becoming a widely-accepted idea. Even people from older generations would like to do so.
By scanning a QR code and paying their share via social networking tool WeChat and e-commerce app Alipay on their smart phones in one easy click, urban Chinese are finding it easier to save them the embarrassment of figuring out each person’s payment when they order a meal.
“This function has made going Dutch less trouble and more fun in China”, CNN noted.
“Because of their convenience, many of us are never without our phones. And person-to-person mobile payment services are incredibly easy to use and save the trouble of dealing with change,” said an 18-year-old student in China.
“You can also leave funny notes using emoji (表情符号) like a bowl of rice or a cup of tea to describe a meal that you have shared.”
1、What is the passage mainly about?
A.The Chinese tradition of dining out with friends. B.A new trend of splitting the bill in China.
C.How social networking tools have influenced our daily lives. D.Why people in China argue over who pays the bill when dining out. 2、Splitting the bill at formal meals was considered to be a(an) ______ task. A.hard C.exciting
B.easy D.funny
3、Many Chinese people make a token effort to pay the bill because ______. A.they don’t want to be considered unsophisticated B.they want praise and gratitude from their friends
C.they consider it an honor to host the meal and pay the bill D.they find it hard to work out how much each person needs to pay
4、The underlined phrase “going Dutch” (in Paragraph 4) probably means ______. A.figuring out the total payment B.taking turns to pay the bill
C.fighting for the privilege of paying the bill D.each person paying their own expenses
5、According to the passage, which is NOT the advantage of using digital payment apps to split the bill? A.They’re easier to use and more interesting. B.They save the trouble of dealing with change.
C.They make it easier to figure out how much money each person has to pay. D.They make people less embarrassed to split the bill.
