三、阅读单选
Perhaps you’ve already watched or heard about Readers (《朗读者》), a TV show that has recently become popular. It invites different people to read aloud on the stage, as well as tell the touching stories behind them. They can read everything, like poems, books and letters.
Many people are fans of the show and begin to enjoy reading aloud at home. Now the show gives people a special place to read across China. Reading pavilions (朗读亭) are now in cities like Shanghai, Hangzhou and Xi’an.
The pavilion is quite small. Only one person can come into it each time. There is a microphone (麦克风) in it and it records people’s voices. Everyone can read anything they like for three minutes in the pavilion. The show will later pick some of the readers and invite them to read on TV.
People of all ages have come and read in the pavilion, according to People’s Daily. “Reading should be just like singing and talking,” said Dong Qing, the host of the show. “We can actually express our deep feeling through reading aloud.”
The TV show and the pavilion are promoting (推动) reading among the public, reported China Youth Daily. In fact, this is also what our country is trying to do now.
26．Reading pavilions are now in ________ .
A．Shanghai, Beijing and Xi’an B．Shanghai, Hangzhou and Xi’an
C．Shanghai, Guangzhou and Xi’an D．Shanghai, Beijing and Hangzhou

四、阅读还原7选5
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
“How are you ” is a nice question. It’s a friendly greeting that people in the United States use. 30 It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks, “How are you ” expects to hear the answer “Fine” even if the person isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you ” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. 31
Sometimes, people don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree ” the other person may be thinking, “No, I don’t. I think you are wrong” It isn’t polite to disagree very strongly, so he might say, “I am not so sure.” 32
People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, “I’ve got to go now,” or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as “Someone is at the door,” or “Something is burning on the stove.” 33 The person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say so. An excuse is polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person’s feelings.
Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an opinion, or ending a conversation, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. 34
根据短文内容，从下列七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将其字母标号涂黑。
A．This is a nice way to say that you don’t agree with someone.
B．It’s very good not to tell the truth to our family.
C．However, “How are you ” is also an unusual question.
D．The excuse may be real, or not.
E．They are common ways of saying “hello” or “hi”.
F．If you disagree with others, they will hate you.
G．This is one way of being nice to people, and it’s a part of the game of language.

Enjoy sports, enjoy life
As the saying goes, exercise is to the body what reading is to the mind. There is no doubt that sports play an important part in our life and make our life colorful.
I’m a sports lover, and I like doing sports very much. I usually play basketball with my friends in our school playground twice a week. I get up early to do morning exercise in a park and I make lots of friends there. Doing sports not only builds me up but also shape my confidence. I understand a man can be destroyed but not defeated by doing sports. In a word, doing sports benefits me a lot.
On our way of growing up, there must be two friends. One is doing sports, and the other is reading. In the future, I will keep doing sports and I believe I will have a wonderful life.
