第二部分 阅读理解（满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
21．（6分）If you look on the Internet, you will see that almost every day of the year celebrates some kind of food. These “holidays” have become very popular across the United States. They give people a chance to enjoy something they might not eat normally, like National Onion (洋葱) Ring Day, for example. Food holidays also give restaurants and other businesses a chance to promote their products.
But where did these American “holidays” come from? Many are the invention of an Alabama man, John-Bryan Hopkins. He writes about food for his Foodimentary. com website. Hopkins told Time magazine that when he began his site in 2006, there were only 175 “holidays.” “I filled in the rest,” he said.
The National Day Calendar has a list of all the different food and non-food related “holidays.” In the past, the website used to let anyone create their own day—for a price. But now, the site only accepts requests from businesses and other organizations.
While some food “holidays” are indeed made-up, many have historical roots. For example, National Beer Day on April 7 marks the end of a U. S. ban on the production, transport, import and sale of alcoholic drinks. The ban lasted from 1920 until 1933.
The Salvation Army, a Christian group, launched U. S. National Doughnut Day on June 1, 1938. It was meant to honor women who served soldiers doughnuts during World War I.
But not everyone likes food holidays. Bethany Jean Clement is a food writer for the Seattle Times newspaper. She wrote, “I get that some people might be excited by, say, National Doughnut Day. But you really can have a doughnut any day you want!”
Tavi Juarez, also of Foodimentary. com, thinks national food holidays are here to stay. She told the Seattle Times, “In my modest opinion, I believe that food holidays will continue to grow in popularity online because there’s a lot of negativity (消极) out there. Why not choose to celebrate food instead?”
1、Why does the website accept others’ own day?
A．To promote traditional food. B．To make money.
C．To create new holidays. D．To attract more viewers.
2、What is National Beer Day related to?
A．Law. B．War.
C．Right. D．Custom.
3、Who dislikes food holidays?
A．John-Bryan Hopkins. B．The Salvation Army.
C．Bethany Jean Clement. D．Tavi Juarez.
4、Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Good Chances to Enjoy Particular Foods.
B．Traditional American Foods on the Internet.
C．Tricks of Businesses: Promotion of Products.
D．National Food Days: An American Tradition.

24．（8分） Natalie Trayling is a famous street artist in Melbourne. At first, those who happened to pass by her and spare some change didn’t even realize what a musical genius was playing. The emotional tune was not only masterfully played but also composed by Natalie herself when she was only 14. Gradually, as long as she appears, people will stop, absorbed in her music. Her music makes you think about calmness, the good things in life, and never giving up.
But what people do not know is that behind the beautiful music of the old woman, it is full of bitterness. At the age of 12, she won a music scholarship at Santa Maria College. At 15 she knocked back a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music in London because her parents couldn’t pay non-tuition costs. When she left school, she taught piano at Santa Maria. Later she met her husband, Denis. They had four children, but the two of them died. In 1984, Denis asked for a divorce. Natalie’s son, Nathan, was given medication for depression. Natalie lived either outdoors in Royal Park or in boarding houses for nine years. In late 2003 Natalie collapsed with anaemia(贫血) and was hospitalized for six months.
For half a century, Natalie has been teased by fate. But even so, she never gave up her love for music. When asked why the music was so important to her, she said: “Music is everything. I do feel part of it. The whole world is music.”
When Natalie went on the Internet, she became a sign of Melbourne. People are impressed by her persistence in dreams and the optimism of life. Now she is no longer wandering around. She can play the piano at any time, but as long as the weather is good, she will walk to the streets of Melbourne, and play a touching melody for the rush of the city.
1、Why is Natalie’s music so touching to the passers-by?
A．It is full of bitterness.
B．She composed it herself.
C．It’s a reflection of her own life.
D．It reminds of the beauty of life.
2、Which of the following can replace the underlined word “knocked back” in Paragraph 2?
A．gave up
B．obtained
C．accepted
D．was awarded
3、What does music mean to Natalie?
A．It’s her hobby.
B．It’s the source of her misfortune.
C．It is part of her life.
D．It’s a way to earn a living.
4、What does the author try to tell us?
A．Natalie is a musical genius.
B．Life is not easy for everyone.
C．Never give up halfway.
D．Natalie has a strong and brave heart.
25．（10分） Ten years ago, I set out to examine luck. I wanted to know why some people were always in the right place at the right time, while others consistently experienced ill fortune. I placed advertisements in national newspapers asking for people who felt consistently lucky or unlucky. Hundreds of extraordinary men and women volunteered for my research. Over the years I have interviewed them, monitored their lives and had them take part in various experiments.
In one of the experiments, I gave both lucky and unlucky people a newspaper, asking them to look through it and tell me how many photographs were inside. I had secretly placed a large message halfway through the newspaper, saying, “Tell the experimenter you have seen this and you will win $50.” This message took up half of the page and was written in type that was more than two inches high. It was staring everyone in the face, but the unlucky people tended to miss it and the lucky people tended to spot it.
Unlucky people are generally more nervous than lucky people, and this anxiety affects their ability to notice the unexpected. As a result, they miss opportunities because they are too focused on looking for something else. They go to gatherings concentrating on finding their perfect partners and miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through newspapers determined to find certain types of job advertisements and miss other types of jobs.
Lucky people are more relaxed and open, and therefore see what is there rather than just what they are looking for. My research eventually showed that lucky people are skilled at noticing opportunities, make lucky decisions by listening to their intuition (直觉), are open to new experiences, and adopt a never-say-die attitude that transforms bad luck into good luck.
1、What’s the purpose of the author’s research?
A．To discover what luck means to people.
B．To find lucky people and unlucky people.
C．To distinguish between good luck and bad luck.
D．To figure out why people are always lucky or unlucky.
2、Why did the unlucky people miss the message in the experiment?
A．There was too much information to be read in detail.
B．They were too focused on looking for photographs.
C．It took too much time to go through newspapers.
D．The words were too small to be noticed.
3、What leads to lucky people’s good fortune?
A．Their ability to spot opportunities. B．Their ability to become relaxed.
C．Their ability to communicate. D．Their ability to make friends.
4、What’s the key message of the last paragraph?
A．What lucky people are looking for.
B．How lucky people generate good luck.
C．What lucky people can do with opportunities.
D．How lucky people transform bad luck into good luck.
