第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节(共15小题，每题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，并在答题卡上把该选项涂黑。

A

It was September 5, 2009. Lexi Youngberg, then 16, was on vacation in Spring Lake, Michigan. She was riding on a small boat with her friends, Robby and Kaitlin, when a motorboat crashed into them. The sound was so loud that other boaters heard it over the roar (轰鸣声) of their engines. The teen boy who had been driving the motorboat stepped on the gas by mistake. Kaitlin, 23, had only small cuts, but Robby, 15, had been badly cut by the propeller (螺旋桨). And Lexi was floating facedown in the water. When one boater swam to Lexi, she was breathing. However, she was unconscious. She had a deep cut on her head. And the lower part of her left leg, just below the knee, was gone. A doctor rode up in another boat and tried to save Robby, but it was too late.

For Lexi, the good news is that she survived while the bad news is that she lost one of her legs forever. When Lexi looked at her swollen(浮肿的) leg, she felt hopeless. But as time passed, Lexi began to feel stronger. She was grateful that her life had been spared, and she decided to make the most of it. At the end of November 2009, Lexi met with Dr. John Hardy, who was an expert at making artificial legs. She hoped he would help her get back to doing the things she loved.

Three years after the accident, Lexi moved on with her life. In spring 2011, she joined a soccer team in her school. That fall, she started college. Lexi is thankful that she can still do the things she loves. One day, she wants to be a physical therapist (理疗师) and work with those with disabilities. But first she plans to compete in the Paralympics. Whatever Lexi decides to do, one thing is certain: Nothing is going to get in her way.

B

Like many grandparents, Irving Winson regularly looks after his grandchildren. So when the Red Cross put on a special child-centered course for older carers, he couldn’t wait to apply for it.

Irving, who has six grandchildren aged under 12, was just one of many grandparents attending the busy first aid session in Royal Wootton Bassett, Wiltshire. He said, “My wife is a nurse, so I’ve always relied on her to act in an emergency. But there are occasions when she’s out and I’m left looking after the kids by myself. Having some first aid skills means I’ll know what to do if anything bad happens.”

The everyday first aid course covered basic skills such as dealing with burns, fractures (骨折) and bleeding injuries. It also covered what to do if a child or baby started choking. Irving said, “Recently, my youngest grandson, who’s just 12 months old, swallowed a small part of a toy. Luckily, he didn’t choke and was still able to breathe, but he couldn’t eat and had a strange cough for a while. Finally, the doctors removed it. However, it made me think ‘what if that had happened when I was looking after him and he had started to choke?’ Before taking this course I wouldn’t have known what to do.”

Jo Riches, a first aid trainer, said, “We felt it was important to hold a course specifically for grandparents as more and more are responsible for caring for their grandchildren while parents return to work.” Irving said, “I took a first aid course many years ago, but the techniques have changed over the years. This one was so easy and made it simple to master the key skills. I feel I could respond to an emergency now if I have to.”

25. When Irving Winson heard there was a first aid course for grandparents, he most probably felt .

A. nervous B. happy

C. bored D. disappointed

26. In the past, when there was an emergency at home, Irving Winson .

A. had to rely on his wife to perform first aid

B. often performed first aid on his grandchildren

C. never felt worried as he knew what he should do

D. could do nothing but send his grandchildren to hospital

27. Irving told the story about his youngest grandson mainly to show that .

A. it’s never too old to learn new things

B. looking after kids at home is not simple

C. it is very important to take the first aid course

D. kids can easily choke after swallowing something

28. What would Jo Riches most probably agree with?

A. Grandparents shouldn’t be left alone at home.

B. Grandparents shouldn’t look after kids at home.

C. Parents shouldn’t leave their kids for their work.

D. Grandparents surely should learn some first aid skills.
