"（我们永远不应该以穷人们作为自我取悦的代价）可推断出，年轻人捉弄穷人的原因是为了 让自己高兴。那么，第三段教授说的这句话就是第1小题的答案依据，于是我们在文中做好题号标识。同 时，做阅读理解题时，一定要细心，这样才能准确找到正确答案。BUniversity Room RegulationsApproved and Prohibited ItemsThe following items are approved for use in residential（住宿的）rooms: electric blankets, hair dryers, personal computers, radios, televisions and DVD players.

We skim over articles, e-mails and WeChat to try to grasp key words and the essential meaning of a certain text. Surrounded with information from our electronic devices, it would be impossible to cope if we read word by word, line by line. But a new trend encourages people to enjoy reading slowly, listing benefits beyond the intelligent stimulation.A recent story from The Wall Street Journal reported on a book club in Wellington, New Zealand, where members meet in a cafe and turn off their smartphones. They sink into cozy chairs and read in silence for an hour. Unlike traditional book clubs, the point of the slow reading club isn't exchanging ideas about a certain book, but to get away from electronic devices and read in a quiet, relaxed environment. According to the Journal, the Wellington book club is just one example of a movement started by book lovers who miss the old-fashioned way of readingbefore the Internet and smartphones.Slow readers, such as The Atlantic's Maura Kelly, say a regular reading habit sharpens the mind, improves concentration, reduces stress levels and deepens the ability to sympathize. Another study published last year in science showed that reading novels slowly helps people understand other's mental states and beliefs, a fundamental skill in building relationships.Yet technology has made us less attentive readers. Screens have changed our reading patterns from the straight and information left-to-right sequence to a wild skimming and skipping pattern as we hunt for important words and information. Reading text punctuated with links leads to weaker comprehension than reading plain text. The Internet may have made us stupider, says Patrick Kingsey from The Guardian. Because of the Internet, he says, we have become very good at collecting a wide range of interesting news, but we are also gradually forgetting how to sit back, reflect, and relate all these facts to each other.Slow reading means a return to an uninten-upted, straight pattern, in a quiet environment free of distractions. Aim for 30minutesa day, advises Kelly from The Atlantic. "You can squeeze in that half hour pretty easily if only during your free moments, you pick up a meaningful work of literature,Kelly said. "Reach for your e-reader, if you like. Kindles make books like War and Peace less heavy, not less substantive, and also ensure you'll never lose your place.”29. The book club in Wellington mentioned in Paragraph 2 shows.A. the increasing number of club readersB. the decline of electronic devicesC. the importance of exchanging ideasD. the new trend of slow reading30. According to Patrick Kingsley, people are stupider partly because of.A. the lack of reflectionB. the straight, left-to-right screenC. a wide range of interesting newsD. a non-stop reading pattern31. According to the passage, slow reading.A. promotes the current technology advancesB. contributes to understanding among peopleC. provides people with a quiet environmentD. cures the memory loss of elderly people32. Whafs the writer's main purpose in writing the passage?A. To call on us to read slowly.B. To emphasize the benefit of Reading Clubs.C. To tell us we are entering the Internet Age.D. To highlight the influence of Speed Reading.【答案】29.D30. A 31. B 32. A【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是在目前快速阅读的大背景下，阅读爱好者发起了一项“回 归慢速阅读”的活动并例举了慢速。【29题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段 u According to the Journal, the Wellington book club is just one example of a movement started by book lovers who miss the old-fashioned way of reading before the Internet and smartphones.（据华尔街 日报报道，惠灵顿读书俱乐部只是由怀念互联网和智能手机出现之前的老式阅读方式的图书爱好者发起 的一项运动的一个例子）”可知，第二段提到的惠灵顿读书俱乐部显示了慢阅读的新趋势。故选D。【30题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段 “The Internet may have made us stupider, says Patrick Kingsey from The Guardian.Because of the Internet, he says, we have become very good at collecting a wide range of interesting news, but we are also gradually forgetting how to sit back, reflect, and relate all these facts to each other.（卫报的帕特里克金 西说，互联网可能让我们变得更笨。他说，因为互联网，我们已经非常擅长收集各种有趣的新闻，但我们 也逐渐忘记了如何坐下来，反思，并将所有这些事实相互联系起来）”可知，根据帕特里克金斯利的说法, 人们之所以更愚蠢，部分原因是缺乏反思。故选A。【31题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段 u Another study published last year in science showed that reading novels slowly helps people understand other's mental states and beliefs, a fundamental skill in building relationships.（去年发表在科 学杂志上的另一项研究表明，慢慢阅读小说有助于人们理解他人的精神状态和信仰，这是建立人际关系 的一项基本技能）”可知，慢阅读有助于人们之间的理解。故选B。【32题详解】推理判断题。根据第段 “ But a new trend encourages people to enjoy reading slowly, listing benefits beyond the intelligent stimulation.（但现在有一种新趋势鼓励人们享受慢速阅读，它列出了智力刺激之外的好处）”及全 文可知，文章主要介绍的是在目前快速阅读的大背景下，阅读爱好者发起了一项“回归慢速阅读”的活动 并例举了慢速。所以作者写此文的目的是号召我们慢慢阅读。故选A。第二节阅读表达（共3小题，共6分）阅读下面的短文和问题，根据短文内容和每小题后的具体要求，完成对该问题的回答。“One person's trash is another person's treasure.Thafs a common expression, but the next time you throw something away, think about a twist on the old saying. What if your trash could become your own treasure? Many creative, thrifty, and environmentally minded people have come up with a way to make that happen. Ifs called upcycling. Our world would be a better place if everyone would begin upcycling.Upcycling is the practice of taking an unwanted item and turning it into something useful. For example, how about that pair of jeans with a hole in one knee? It could become a new pillow for your bedroom. How about the old T-shirts you never wear anymore? It could be sewed together to make a picnic blanket. All of these are examples of upcycling.Upcycling is not the same as recycling. Upcycling is actually much better for the environment. Recycling takes an item made of glass, paper, metal, or plastic, breaks it down to its base material, and then uses that material to make another product. This requires a great deal of energy. On the other hand, when you choose to upcycle, the only energy you use is your own. And upcycling not only reduces the amount of trash that goes into our landfills, but it also protects natural resources, such as oil and gas. Recycling is good for the environment, but upcycling is even better.Upcycling also makes a family's budget stretch further. Before you run to the store to buy something, look around your house. Old teacups can be transformed into candles. And an old ladder can even become a bookshelf. Of course, the idea of reusing items to save money is not new. During the Great Depression in the 1930s, many families lived on a tight budget. People had to use what they already had in order to meet their needs. Flour sacks were used to make clothes, and a broken door became a new table. Today we should follow the examples of our great-grandparents and save money by upcycling.As responsible citizens, we should all be concerned with protecting our environment and budgeting our resources. Upcycling is a fun and creative way to help. The next time you go to toss something into the trash can, stop and think about what it could become. Chances are, there9s a brand-new item in your hand just waiting to be upcycled.33. What is upcycling according to the passage?34. Why is upcycling much better for the environment than recycling?35. Find out one thing in your daily life to upcycle. Explain what you will do with it.答案】33. Upcycling is the practice of taking an unwanted item and turning it into something useful.34. Because it protects natural resource.35.1 plan to upcycle the bottle. I will turn glass bottles into candle holders or glass lamps.【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。旨在说明升级改造是一个比回收利用更好的保护环境，减少污染、浪费的好方 法。【33题详解】考查细节理解。根据文章第二段第一句 "Upcycling is the practice of taking an unwanted item and turning it into something useful." “升级改造是将不想要的物品变成一些有用的物品的实践。”可知upcycling “升级改造” 的定义。故答案为 Upcycling is the practice of taking an unwanted item and turning it into something usefulo34题详解】考查细节理解。根据第三段倒数第二句 "And upcycling not only reduces the amount of trash that goes into our landfills, but it also protects natural resources, such as oil and gas."（升级改造不仅减少进入废渣埋填地的垃圾， 还能保护如石油、天然气等自然资源。）可知与同样能减少垃圾的回收利用相比，它更好的原因在于它还能 够保护自然资源。故答案为 Because it protects natural resourceo【35题详解】考查推理判断。根据第二段倒数二三句提供的改造例子u How about the old T-shirts you never wear anymore? It could be sewed together to make a picnic blanket."（你不会再穿的T恤呢？它能够被缝在一起成为野餐的毯子） 可知，我们可以将日常所不想再用的物品摇身一变成为想用的东西。故我们可以将一个玻璃杯变成灶台或 者玻璃灯。 故答案可为 I plan to upcycle the bottle. I will tum glass bottles into candle holders or glass lamps0 第四部分：书面表达（20分）36.假设你是红星中学英语社李华，你校英语社打算邀请外教Professor Smith为全校学生做一次主题为保护 环境的演讲，请给他写一封邀请信，信的内容包括：1 .说明写信的目的2 .告知时间和地点3 .介绍演讲的内容（如环境保护的原因、后果及措施等） 注意：1.词数为80左右。2 .可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。3 .英语社（English Club）Dear Professor Smith,Yours sincerely,Li Hua【答案】Dear Professor Smith,I am Li Hua, from the English club in Hong Xing Middle school.
