Passage 2
American teens love their sports
Whether it’s soccer, basketball or tennis, there are lots of fun sports to play when you’re not busy with school. Some sports, like basketball, are universal(世界性的). Kids all over the world play them. But other sports are more unique(独特的).
In the US, playing baseball is a common after-school activity for many kids. In fact, it is known as the “national pastime” of the US. But few people outside of the US play this sport. It is popular in some Central American countries, such as Mexico, and some East Asian countries, such as Japan and South Korea. But it is almost unknown in other parts of the world.
There is also American football. a sport that is unique to the US and Canada. The sport is similar to rugby(英式橄榄球), which is more popular in Europe. Players have to carry, throw or kick the ball to a receiving player in the “end zone” in order to score points. But they have to get the ball past a wall of defending(防护的)players first.
US students who play these sports usually take them quite seriously. Some high school athletes(运动员)can go on to play on college teams. receiving scholarships(奖学金)in return for their performance on the field. Talented college players can be picked by national teams and become professional players. So for some young athletes, playing sports after school can lead to a full-time career.
25. What is known as the “national pastime” of the US?
A. Playing baseball. B. Playing soccer. C. Playing basketball. D. Playing football.
26. Which of the following is TRUE about American football?
A. It is only played in America. B. It is more popular in Europe.
C. It is similar to rugby in Britain. D. It is unknown to people in Asia.

C. Throw the ball to a player in the “end zone.” D. Receive the ball and run down the field.
28. Why do college students in the US take sports seriously?
A. Because they can earn money from playing on national teams.
B. Because they can have fun when they’re not busy with school.
C. Because they can make friends with high school players.
D. Because they can be picked to play on national teams.
Passage 3
Are There Too Many of Us?
Overpopulation—many people say this is the biggest danger to Earth. It is clear that the planet is not expanding. There is only so much space. The amount of food, water and energy on Earth is also quite limited. So the planet can hardly support more people, can it?
The answer to this question may be “Yes”. David Satterthwaite is an environmental scientist. He points out that the problem is not about the number of people on the planet. Instead, it is about the amount of their consumption(消耗). “The world has enough for everyone’s need. but not enough for everyone’s greed(贪心),” he explains.
Now, the world’s population is over 7.5 billion. According to the United Nations, it could reach 9.7 billion in 2050, and over 11 billion in 2100. Most of the growth is predicted(预言)to be in today’s underdeveloped countries. The influence of adding several billion people to these countries might not be huge. Traditionally, people in these countries consume little. People in higher-income(收入)countries leave a much greater environmental footprint on our planet.
However， the world is always changing. People in low-income countries may break their traditions. If they were to consume as much as people in high-income countries do, the influence of the predicted population growth could be much larger. So, if we want Earth to be able to support a large human population, all of us should try to limit our consumption.
Technological progress in farming, electricity production and many other fields may help Earth support more people. In the long run, space technologies may help solve the problem of over population. Scientists have already discovered many Earth-like planets. Perhaps fifty years from now, some of us may be able to live away from Earth.
29. The underlined word “expanding” means “____________________” in the first paragraph.
A. becoming larger B. becoming smaller C. becoming hotter D. becoming colder
30. According to the United Nations, how many people will be on Earth in 2100?
A. About 7.5 billion. B. About 9.7 billion.
C. More than 11 billion. D. More than 15 billion.
31. In the future, most of the increased population will ____________________.
A. consume as little as possible B. appear in low-income countries
C. leave lots of footprints on Earth D. appear in high-income countries
32. According to the article, 50 years later, some people may be able to live ____________________.
A. under the sea B. on the moon C. in space station D. on another planet
33. We can learn from the article that ____________________.
A. David thinks Earth can support more people
B. technological progress breaks our environment
C. we have to limit consumption to support more people
D. we should control the population of underdeveloped countries

Passage 4
English is spoken by people in many places. It began in England but spread as the British people left their country and made new homes. 34
After many years, the English language began to change. The changes were mainly expressions and spellings. 35 People in England say “underground” while people in America say “subway”. In America an elevator starts on the first floor, but in Britain it starts on the ground floor. “Colour” and “centre” are British spellings while “color” and “center” are American spellings for the same words. Pronunciation of words and ways of speaking have changed as well. 36
The English language has also changed by borrowing words from other languages. The Americans borrowed “cent” from old French and “cookbook” from German. 37
The English language is changing all the time, but people from English-speaking countries are still able to understand each other.

VI. 阅读理解(二)(本题共6小题;每小题2分，共12分)
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
Passage 5
Can you imagine a world without a writing system for your language? It may be hard to picture it now. but a man named Sequoyah lived in such a world. Sequoyah was a member of a native American tribe(部落)the Cherokee. Cherokee people speak their own language, but for hundreds of years they did not have a system of writing. Without a writing system, the Cherokee had no newspapers or books before 1809.
Sequoyah was probably born around the year 1770 and lived with his mother in a small village in the mountains of Tennessee. When he grew up, he became a blacksmith(铁匠). When he was doing business with those “English-speaking people” he noticed that they used paper with marks to record their thoughts and ideas. Sequoyah called these pieces of paper with marks “talking leaves”. He began to wonder why people who speak Cherokee did not have a way to write down their words.
In 1809, Sequoyah decided to give the Cherokee their own “talking leaves”. At first he tried to make a different symbol for every word in the Cherokee language. But in that case, there would be so many symbols and too hard for people to remember, so he decided to make a picture for each syllable(音节). After much hard work, Sequoyah invented 85 symbols. In order to see whether it would work, he helped his six-year-old daughter Ayoka learn each symbol and found she could learn to read and write very quickly. Sequoyah’s invention was a success!
Before long, Sequoyah’s writing system had spread far and wide. Cherokee people living in all different parts of the country learned to read and write. In 1825, Sequoyah’s system was made the official written language for Cherokee people. To this day, Cherokee speakers still use Sequoyah’s writing system. In some parts of the United States, you can see street signs and billboards written in both English and Cherokee. Sequoyah will always be remembered for his important contribution to Cherokee people.
