in 1970，it had only two floors，but as the population in the city grew，more and more people visited the library，so two more floors were added to it 10 years later.Today the library has a collection of over 120,000 books and 100 kinds of newspapers and magazines，though not all of those can be taken out.I like visiting the third floor because thats where all the science books and older books are located.Sometimes I also visit the second floor to read the latest magazines and newspapers.I go to the first floor almost every weekend to get novels and textbooks to take home to read.The library is open from 8：00 am to 6：00 pm Monday to Friday，but on the weekend，it closes one hour earlier.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，从各题所给的4个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。AI have many new teachers in

BExcited.CDoubtful. DUnclear.解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中David说的Thats truly wonderful to look at a country.可推测，他对于韩语在美国的流行感到很兴奋。答案：B29The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to_.AKorean language BKorean cultureCKorean acting DKorean pop解析：篇章结构题。根据该段中的Persida Radu is learning Korean和I actually first got into Korean pop and then Korean plays可知，Persida一开始对韩国流行音乐感兴趣，随后是韩剧，所以最后决定要学习韩语。故it指代韩语。答案：A30Why does John learn Korean?ATo learn a family language.BTo learn Korean pop songs.CTo learn about his homeland.DTo prepare for future immigration.解析：推理判断题。根据第五段中的not enough to talk with older family members who may not speak English和第六段中的I want to communicate with my parents，my grandparents可知，John学习韩语是为了和不会说英语的家庭成员沟通交流。此外，John这个例子也是为了说明第五段中Ms Feal所说的韩语流行的另一个原因，即：children of Korean immigrants want to speak to their parents and grandparents in Korean。由此可推测，John是为了学习一门可以在家庭中使用的语言。答案：A31Who holds the opinion that language learning helps one learn a culture?ARobert. BPersida.CRosemary. DSungOck.解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的Rosemary Feal.language gives us access into culture and cultural expression可知，Rosemary认为语言是文化的窗口，我们可以通过语言学习来了解一种文化。答案：CDThere are many useful suggestions and pieces of advice that can help one to improve English.Here are some useful suggestions and new tips to increase ones English language vocabulary.Learning English vocabulary is about much more than just learning the right words.A broad grasp of vocabulary in the English language is based on understanding important expressions and “word combinations”，which means groups of words that often or always go together.Learning a word will not help very much if you quickly forget it.Research shows that it takes from 10 to 20 repetitions (重复) to really make a word part of your vocabulary.Since most words are learned from how they are used in context (上下文)，the more words one is exposed to，the better vocabulary one will have.Keep a writing pad close to you.When you read，pay close attention to the word you do not know，write the word down and try to figure_out its meaning from the context.Then look up the word in a dictionary.Remember that if you do not use English words that you have just learned in conversation or writing，you will forget them very quickly.So the best way to learn new words effectively is just by trying to use them in conversation and writing.Remember also that practice is the key to fluent spoken English.Building vocabulary is a lifelong task.Remember：“In the beginning was the word.” Your future could depend on how rich your vocabulary is.It will also determine the quality of your communication.语篇解读现在，有许多有用的方法帮助人们提高英语水平。本文介绍了一些关于如何增加英语词汇量的好建议。32We can learn from the text that learning English vocabulary_.Ais just about learning the right wordsBis about remembering more and more wordsCdoesnt need one to learn word combinationsDneeds one to understand important expressions解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段“A broad grasp of vocabulary in the English language is based on understanding important expressions.”可知，增加英语词汇量要基于对重要表达方式的理解。答案：D33What does the underlined phrase “figure out” in the third paragraph mean?ARealise. BRecognise.CUnderstand. DImagine.解析：猜测词义题。根据文章第三段“.write the word down and try to figure out its meaning from the context”中“figure out”后接“meaning”可推知其意义为“搞清楚，弄明白”，故选项C正确。答案：C34The best way to learn new words is_.Atrying to use them while speaking and writingBwriting them down over and over againCalways looking them up in the dictionaryDreading them loudly over and over again解析：细节理解题。根据第四段“So the best way to learn new words effectively is just by trying to use them in conversation and writing”可知学习新单词最好的方法就是将其用在写作和对话中。答案：A35What is the text mainly about?AHow to enrich your English vocabulary.BHow to have a good conversation in English.CWhy context is important in learning English.DHow to improve the quality of communication.解析：主旨大意题。文章介绍了如何增加英语词汇量。答案：A第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)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。You might think that simple things like saying hello and goodbye are the same in every culture.Think again!Shaking hands to say hello or goodbye was a Western custom (风俗) at first._36_Traditionally，the Chinese custom for greeting was to hold ones hands together and nod their head a little.Japanese people greet each other by bowing (鞠躬)When greeting an older or more important person，it is usual to bow lower and for longer._37_But only men did it.People in European countries such as Italy often greet each other with a kiss on both cheeks (脸颊)Even men greet each other like this._38_Eskimos，a group of people living in the very cold northern areas of North America，greet each other by lightly rubbing (摩擦) their noses together._39_Often，Eskimos only leave their eyes and noses uncovered.And the rest of their bodies are covered with warm clothing and their hands with gloves.When youre not sure what the customs are in a new country，theres one greeting that is the same all o
