第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
When a storm is coming, most people leave the area as quickly as possible and head for safety. But there are a few people who will get into cars and go straight for the center of the storm. These people are willing to risk(冒…...危险) being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up.
“Storm chasing(追逐)” is becoming an increasingly popular hobby, especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are frequent storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by checking the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop.
Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm seasons.
Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement. “Storm chasing is 95% driving,” says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. “Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers.”
However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. “When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting sight you will ever see in your life,” says Jasper Morley. “Every storm is an example of the power of nature. It is the greatest show on Earth.”
21. For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to _____. A. head straight for the center of the storm B. get into the car for safety
C. wait patiently for the storm to develop D. collect information about a coming storm 22. Beginners of storm chasing are advised _____. A. not to drive in a heavy rain B. to do it in an organized way
3
C. not to get too close to a storm D. to spend more time on it in summer
23. By saying “it is all worth it” in the last paragraph, the author means that _____. A. storm chasing costs a lot of money B. storm chasing is worth hours of waiting C. efforts in storm chasing are well paid D. a storm presents the greatest show on Earth 24. What can we learn from the text?
A. Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointment. B. Many storm chasers get killed in the storms. C. Storm chasing is only fit for young people.
D. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world
B
“When studying foreign speech, don’t forget about body language,” Anne Merritt said. Something as simple as a smile can show friendliness in one culture, embarrassment in another, impatience in a third. Even silence means different things in different places. If you want to avoid making some mistakes when traveling abroad, you should pay attention to the following.
Touch
Britain, along with much of Northern Europe and the Far East, has a “non-contact” culture. In those countries, there is very little physical contact(接触) in people’s daily talks. Even brushing someone’s arm by accident is the reason for an apology. However, in the high-contact cultures of the Middle East, Latin America, and southern Europe, physical touch is a big part of daily life.
What’s more, there are different standards for who touches whom and where. In much of the Arab world, men hold hands and kiss each other in greeting, but would never do the same with a woman. In Thailand and Laos, it is taboo(禁忌) to touch anyone’s head, even children’s. In South Korea, elders can touch younger people with force when trying to get through a crowd, but younger people can’t do the same.
Eye contact
In most Western countries, frequent eye contact is a sign of confidence and attentiveness. We may think that a conversation partner who looks away is either not listening to us or lying. Of course, this is not the standard around the world.
In many Asian, African, and Latin American countries, the unbroken eye contact would be considered impolite and rude. These cultures consider avoiding eye contact a sign of respect for bosses and elders. In these parts of the world, children won’t look at an adult who is speaking to them, and nor will employees look at their bosses. 25. In Britain, when people are talking, they usually _____. A. avoid eye contact C. avoid physical contact
B. brush the others’ arms D. apologize for their mistakes

26. In southern Europe, physical touch is _____. A. unnecessary B. impolite 27. What should we avoid doing in Thailand? A. Touching a kid’s head. 28. What does this text mainly tell us? A. How to have a good time abroad. C. How to communicate with foreigners.
C B. The importance of body language. D. An introduction to some body language. B. Touching someone’s arm.
C. Shaking hands with children. D. Touching old people with force.
C. dangerous D. common
