第二部分 阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
As a wise man once said, we are all ultimately alone. But an increasing number of Europeans are choosing to be so at an ever earlier age. This isn't the stuff of gloomy philosophical contemplations, but a fact of Europe's new economic landscape, embraced by sociologists, real-estate developers and ad executives alike. The shift away from family life to solo lifestyle, observes a French sociologist, is part of the “irresistible momentum of individualism” over the last century. The communications revolution, the shift from a business culture of stability to one of mobility and the mass entry of women into the workforce have greatly wreaked havoc on(扰乱) Europeans' private lives.
Europe's new economic climate has largely fostered the trend toward independence. The current generation of home-aloners came of age during Europe's shift from social democracy to the sharper, more individualistic climate of American style capitalism. Raised in an era of privatization and increased consumer choice, today's tech-savvy(精通技术的) workers have embraced a free market in love as well as economics. Modern Europeans are rich enough to afford to live alone, and temperamentally independent enough to want to do so.
Once upon a time, people who lived alone tended to be those on either side of marriage—twenty something professionals or widowed senior citizens. While pensioners, particularly elderly women, make up a large proportion of those living alone, the newest group of singles are high earners in their 30s and 40s who increasingly view living alone as a lifestyle choice. Living alone was conceived to be negative—dark and cold, while being together suggested warmth and light. But then came along the idea of singles. They were young, beautiful, and strong! Now, young people want to live alone.
The booming economy means people are working harder than ever. And that doesn't leave much room for relationships. Pimpi Arroyo, a 35-year-old composer who lives alone in a house in Paris, says he hasn't got time to get lonely because he has too much work. “I have deadlines which would make life with someone else fairly difficult.” Only an ideal woman would make him change his lifestyle, he says. Kaufmann, author of a recent book called The Single Woman and Prince Charming, thinks this fierce new individualism means that people expect more and more of mates, so relationships don't last long—if they start at all. Eppendorf, a blond Berliner with a deep tan, teaches grade school in the mornings. In the afternoon she sunbathes or sleeps, resting up for going dancing. Just shy of 50, she says she'd never have wanted to do what her mother did—give up a career to raise a family. Instead, “I've always done what I wanted to do: live a self-determined life.”
36．According to Paragraph 3, the newest group of singles are ________．
A．warm and lighthearted B．on either side of marriage
C．negative and gloomy D．healthy and wealthy
37．The author quotes Eppendorf to show that ________．
A．some modern women prefer a life of individual freedom
B．the family is no longer the basic unit of society in present-day Europe
C．some professional people have too much work to do to feel lonely
D．most Europeans conceive living a single life as unacceptable
38．What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?
A．To review the impact of women becoming high earners.
B．To contemplate the philosophy underlying individualism.
C．To examine the trend of young people living alone.
D．To stress the rebuilding of personal relationships.

The American education system is unusual in that it allows students to transfer from one school to another.
Deciding to transfer is a very important decision to make during your college career. If you are thinking about transferring, here is some information you should have to get started on the progress.
The most common reasons for transferring are：
1．Moving from a two-year community college to a four-year college/university
Community colleges are designed to be transfer schools and offer only the first two years of undergraduate (本科) study. Their graduates often go on to do the last two years of a bachelor's degree at another school. Many students choose such an approach to their university education. Community college tuition is low, though many community colleges offer great educations.
2．Getting into a better school
For those students who want a second try at their dream schools or for those who simply want to trade up, transferring after their freshman or sophomore (二年级) year might be an option (选择). It's much easier to get into selective schools as a sophomore/ junior than as a freshman.
3．Majors
Given that US schools generally only require students to declare their majors in their sophomore year, sometimes students do not realize their preferred majors are unavailable at their schools until they've attended classes for a full year. Students transferring for this reason are best advised to research which schools are highly respected in their preferred major before making their transfer choice.
Keep in mind that some credits (学分) may not be transferable. If you are transferring from a two-year school to a four-year school, you may be required to retake course that you have already completed at the community college. Furthermore, some schools require you to complete a minimum number of credits at your new school before you can graduate (usually 60 credits or two years of coursework). This may delay your graduation date.
43．What does the last paragraph mean?
A．Some credits may not be transferable.
B．Some credits may be transferable.
C．When you go to a new school, you needn't retake course.
D．If you transfer, your graduate date may not be delayed.
44．What should the students pay special attention to when they transfer?
A．Their credits.
B．Choosing the major available to them.
C．Choosing a better school.
D．Choosing two years of undergraduate study.
45．What's the main idea of the passage?
A．The tips of transferring.
B．Think hard before you change schools.
C．The American education system.
D．Deciding to transfer is very important during your college career.
D
You love Jay Chou's songs and you can sing some quite well. So you make a video of your performance and post it online for your friends to see. But what if this led to something beyond your wildest imagination—a career in music?
Canadian teenager Justin Bieber, 16, has just had the magical experience: He posted homemade videos of his versions of songs by American singer Chris Brown online for his relatives. He received a phone call from Brown, telling him how much he liked his performance. His singing eventually earned him a fan base and a record contract. After releasing a popular EP (extended play密纹唱片) record in November 2009, his album My world 2.0 came out last Tuesday.
Bieber sings ballads and songs about puppy love. But is he just another gooey (甜腻的) teen idol? David Malitz, a columnist with The Washington Post, doesn't think so. “If we truly want the best for American children, let us pause and give thanks for Justin Bieber，” he writes. “After years of humdrum bubblegum (乏味的摇滚舞曲) from Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers, the 16-year-old has thrown a candy-coated wrench (扭转) into Disney's heartthrob (甜心) assembly line (生产线) by giving young fans something worth screaming their lungs out for: lovable pop songs.”
From a boy who grew up below the poverty line with his divorced mom to a star who caused near-riots (近乎失控) in shopping malls, even Bieber himself can't believe his overnight fame, although his kind of success is becoming more and more common in the Internet era.
Interested in hockey (冰球), the national sport of Canada, the boy once put up pictures of players on the walls of his bedroom. He dreamed of being a hockey star and used to practice signing his autograph (签名). He doesn't need practice now. He signs autographs, if the girls can get close enough, as a music star.
46．What did Chris Brown think of Justin Bieber's singing?
A．He didn't like it. B．He liked it very much.
C．He didn't say anything. D．He supported Justin Bieber.
47．Who is a columnist?
A．Chris Brown. B．Jay Chou. C．David Malitz. D．Miley Cyrus.
48．What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?
A．He had a happy family. B．His family was very poor once.
C．His family was rich. D．His family helped him a lot.
49．What's Justin Bieber's hobby?
A．Singing. B．Hockey. C．Signing. D．Making records.
50．What's the best title of the passage?
A．Justin Bieber's overnight success B．Justin Bieber's common experience
C．Justin Bieber's life D．Justin Bieber's records

第三部分 任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Aspirin
Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) has been used for many years as a painkiller. It also has an anti-inflammatory (消炎) action and can be used to reduce fever. Aspirin is already recommended for people to prevent stroke and heart attack because it improves one's blood circulation. So many people already take daily aspirin as a heart drug. Although aspirin can cause deadly internal bleeding, which is relatively rare, its benefits for people are great, not only to help increase the length of people's lives, but to prevent and treat cancer, or to stop cancer spread according to the latest research.
Taking a low dose (剂量) of aspirin every day can prevent and possibly even treat cancer, fresh evidence suggests. Prof. Peter Rothwell, from Oxford University, and his colleagues, who carried out the latest work, had already linked aspirin with a lower risk of certain cancers, particularly bowel(肠) cancer. But their previous work suggested people needed to take the drug for about 10 years to get any protection. Now the protective effect occurs much sooner—within three to five years—based on a new analysis of data from 51 trials involving more than 77，000 patients. And aspirin appears not only to reduce the risk of developing many different cancers in the first place, but may also stop cancers spreading around the body.
Taking a low (75-300mg) daily dose of aspirin appeared to cut the total number of cancer cases by 25 % after only three years—there were nine cancer cases per 1，000 each year in the aspirin-taking group, compared with 12 per 1，000 for those taking dummy pills. It also reduced the risk of a cancer death by 15% within five years (and sooner if the dose was higher than 300mg). And if patients stayed on aspirin for longer, their cancer death risk went down even further—by 37% after five years.
Low-dose aspirin also appeared to reduce the probability that cancers, particularly bowel, would spread to other parts of the body, and by as much as half in some instances. However, Prof. Rothwell says for most fit and healthy people, the most important things they can do to reduce their lifetime cancer risk is to give up smoking, take exercise and—have a healthy diet.
But experts warn that there is still not enough proof to recommend it to prevent cancer cases and deaths and warn that the drug can cause dangerous side effects like stomach bleeding. Prof. Peter Johnson of Cancer Research UK, along with other experts, said it was still a good idea that people thinking of taking aspirin should first consult their doctors because of the possible side effect. And people should get some decisive advice from the government as to whether aspirin should be recommended more widely and the government should also advise the public about the benefits and risks of aspirin.

综合能力检测(二)
第一部分
第一节
1．B 考查冠词。句意为：杰克给我留口信，说他处在困难中。第一个空a message表示泛指，第二个空是固定搭配，in trouble处在困难中，不用加冠词。
2．B 考查名词性从句。分析句子结构可知，it为形式主语，该空引导一个主语从句，根据语境选B。句意为：迈克尔是学校唯一被选上去参加字词竞赛的学生，这一事情使他的妈妈感到很自豪。
3．D 考查强调句型的主谓一致。被强调的主语是“only Jackson and I”，根据意义一致原则和强调句型的时态呼应原则(被强调的句子其谓语是现在完成时，故首空用it is)，正确答案选D。
4．B 考查省略句。Watching TV in her bedroom.是She is watching TV in her bedroom.的省略。
5．B 考查介词短语。句意为：当这个地区的人们听说一位明朝皇帝使用过的很罕见的一个花瓶埋在他们家附近的某个地方，他们都去寻找。search是动词“搜查，搜身”； in search of“寻找”。故选B项。
6．D 考查状语从句。句意为：一旦我们开始思考，并相信我们可以做，什么都是可能的。as“当……时候”； while“当……时候”； until“一直到……”； once“一旦”。故选D。
7．B 考查情态动词。should have done表示本该做某事而实际上未做；would have done表示对过去事情的假设，意为本来会做；could have done表示本能做而实际上未做的事；根据题干内容，must have done表示对过去动作的肯定猜测。
8．A 考查非谓语动词作状语的用法。过去分词作条件状语，offer与逻辑主语I之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词。
9．A 考查倒装句。在such…that…结构中，当such置于句首时，句子要倒装，由此可以排除B、D两项； 根据从句谓语动词的时态可知，A项正确。
10．D 考查-ever辨析。句意为：无论遇到什么样的不幸，你都应该保持积极的心态。whatever 相当于no matter what。
11．D 考查形容词和冠词的用法。由回答来看，答话者在宴会上过得很开心，此外，这里表泛指，所以用不定冠词。否定词never 和比较级连用表达的是最高级的意思。答句句意为：我从来没参加过这么令人兴奋的晚会。表示令人兴奋的，表述的是物，所以用exciting。
12．C 考查“祈使句＋and＋陈述句”句型。句意为：尽力去帮助困难中的人，你就会觉得愉快和幸福。
13．B 考查动词的时态。“错过”是过去发生的事情，“想是否还会演”是现在的想法，故选B。
14．D 考查连词辨析。before 和情态动词could 连用，意思是：还没来得及……就……句意为：我还没来得及问候，那位外国客人就已经转身离开了。
15．B 考查虚拟语气。分析语境可知，句中的insisted意为“坚持认为”，故其后的宾语从句中用陈述句语气；而句中的suggested意为“建议”，即建议立即解雇她，其后的宾语从句用“(should＋)动词原形”表虚拟，故正确答案选B。

One possible version：
As is seen in the picture, several children are washing their mothers' feet happily with their little hands. Simple as the picture is, it does show us that love is not only in our words but also in our actions.

What's worse, we are always complaining how little our parents have given us, ignoring the fact that our parents are sacrificing all they have to us. What a shame! Then what should we do in return for their unconditional love? It is a good idea that you help to do some housework while your parents are tired out. Never should we forget love is also in our every bit of small action. One action is worth tens of thousands of words.
