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。

A

Absorbed in my to-do list of yesterday, I was walking into the office without paying any attention to my surroundings, when suddenly I turned the corner and there it was, sitting on my chair. “Oh, my God,” I said surprisedly. “Zucchini(小胡瓜)”. “Isn’t it that nice?” said Rachel, my workmate. “Somebody left zucchini for everyone!”  Have you ever noticed how somebody actually gives you zucchini? At least, not inthe same way they give you corn or apples or tomatoes. I mean, if someone wants to give you a few fresh, juicy peaches off their tree, they walk right up and hand them to you. You will be pleased. It seems that they have confidence you will like their gift. But with zucchini, they left it and went away. No note. No calling card. I thought zucchini is the abandoned orphan of the vegetable kingdom.  “Yeah, it’s nice,” I said. “Who should we thank for this gift?” “I don’t know,” Rachelsaid. “You know how it is with zucchini.” Of course I do. Nobody actually grows it. At least, not on purpose. It just grows like weeds. “So what are you going to do with yours?” I asked. “I will just do what I always do  with zucchini,” she said. This morning I stepped into my office area carefully, afraid of what might be there waiting for me. There was a piece of bread in a white box sitting on my desk. I picked it up. It smelled wonderful. I took a bite. It tasted wonderful. “Who made the banana bread?” I asked. Rachel said, “It isn’t banana bread. It’s zucchini bread.” I stopped chewing. “This couldn’t be zucchini. It’s delicious!” I paused, and added, “But I dislike zucchini!” “So do I,” Rachel admitted. “But a few years ago I found this great way to cook zucchini bread, and now I actually look forward to zucchini season.” I took another bite of the bread. I couldn’t help wondering: “How could anything so tasty come from something so distasteful?” “It’s a fact of life,” Rachel said. “You mix effort with creativity and you can turn almost anything around.” 21. What happened to the author yesterday? A. She found a zucchini on her office chair. B. She shared vegetables with her workmates. C. She made zucchini bread for everyone. D. She harvested the tomatoes she grew. 22. Paragraph 2 is actually about _____.

If you plan on visiting Fiji, you are probably looking for some fun things to do. Below are four unusual places.

The Poseidon Resort

The Poseidon resort is an underwater resort that gives visitors a beautiful view of sea life. This resort covers 255 acres. It’s covered and surrounded by a lagoon(咸水湖)that covers 5,000 acres and is about 90 feet under water, giving you a beautiful view of sea life right before your eyes. This resort even has a hotel for those who would prefer to have the unusual experience of sleeping and waking up to the beautiful scenery all around them.

The Sabeto Mud Pool

If you’re looking for something unusual to do, you can’t pass up the mud pool at Sabeto. It is located in a mountain range with a huge group of geothermal(地热的)pools full of nice, warm mud. Getting down and into the mud in the pool is believed to have benefits for healthy skin. This is unusual, but adults and especially kids will love it.

Fire Walking

Fire walking in Fiji is believed to have originated on the island of Beau. Fire walking is when you walk on white-hot stones barefoot. To do this, you have to be mentally prepared for it. Trust me; there is a lot of preparation and strict rules that travelers follow in order to do this safely.

The Fiji Museum

The Fiji museum is unusual due to all the amazing artifacts you’ll see dating back 3,000-4,000 years. This museum has a certain attraction that makes it funny ---- a shoe. It’s been said that a man named Thomas Baker was eaten by the locals several centuries ago and the only thing left was his shoe. This unusual museum is a great idea if you bring the whole family to Fiji.

A professional skateboarder is probably facing jail time after uploading a video that shows he was skating at a shocking 68 mph through the middle of traffic. South African skater Decio Lourenco faces the charges after Cape Town city officials say his high-speed skating actually attracted a speed camera. The speed limit for skating in the town of Lourenco is 37 mph. “The boy’s behavior was very dangerous. He might cause one of the motorists to panic and crash into other vehicles, which can lead to a large number of deaths. We have already had such cases on that road before,” safety spokesman Jean-Pierre Smith, told the New York Daily News. “If we don’t take action against him, every other skateboarder will stry it and one of them will come to a sticky end.” It’s hard to deny that what the boy did was dangerous, particularly with oncoming traffic in the opposite lane. But Lourenco is a
