第二部分 阅读理解（满分20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。
A
Li Ping, a college student has been experiencing social awkwardness since her junior middle school years. Back then, she felt unease about going to the restroom alone. She even limited the amount of water she drank so she didn’t have to go there often. “I feared that other students would think that I didn’t get along well with others if I was seen alone,” she said. Li is not the only sufferer of what* s called “social anxiety”.
China Youth Daily recently did a survey among 1,4 people. Nearly half (44. 6 percent) of the participants admitted that they were afraid of being the center of attention. Up to 66.7 percent of them said they are more likely to be anxious during face-to-face communications than in online conversations. But these feelings are not necessarily anything to worry about. “There is ‘social anxiety’, and there is ‘social anxiety disorder’ or ‘social phobia’. They are two completely different things.” said Li Songwei, a psychological professor at Tsinghua University.
According to Thomas Rodebaugh, a psychology professor at Washington University in St Louis, US, almost everyone suffers from at least a little social anxiety. “For example, we may get it before speaking in public, or have a bad night’s sleep if there is going to be an important interview the next day. But when does social anxiety develop into a disorder? There are two simple questions you can ask yourself if you’re concerned—‘How much does the anxiety affect my life?’ and ‘Is it acceptable?’ If the condition becomes so problematic and you refuse to go out at all and cannot live a normal life, you just need to seek treatment.” he notes.
But for common social anxiety, people all have their different coping strategies. “The way I employ is reason plus reward,” said Wang Li, another once-sufferer. For example, she tells herself that there is no such thing as right or wrong when pushing yourself to speak publicly: there are only people who agree with you or not. And if she conquers her fear, she buys new shoes or goes to see a movie after class.
1、The first paragraph is mainly used to .
A．make a comparison B．teach a new word “social anxiety”
C．draw a conclusion D．introduce a phenomenon
2、What may Thomas Rodebaugh agree with?
A．Social anxiety is a deadly problem. B．Social anxiety is a rare problem.
C．Little attention is paid to social anxiety. D．Not all social anxiety needs treatment.
3、The underlined word “employ” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to the one in “ ”.
A．I want to employ Weibo as a means to practice my writing
B．More than 40 university graduates were employed
C．The children employed themselves in painting
D．He employed me as a secretary
4、What can we infer from the text?
A．Some participants feel easier in online communications.
B．Social anxiety is regarded as social phobia.
C．Li Ping didn’t often go to the restroom because she didn’t like drinking water.
D．Wang Li dealt with social anxiety only by rewarding herself.

B
We can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.
We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.
Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay(传闻) and rumor.
Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original message has changed.
That’s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.
This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be restated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.
1、According to the passage, active learning may occur in ________.
A．reading scientific journals
B．listening to the teacher in class
C．doing a chemical experiment
D．watching news programmes on TV
2、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．Classroom. B．Newspapers.
C．Active learning. D．Passive learning.
3、The game Rumor is mentioned in Paragraph 4 in order to tell readers that ________.
A．playing games can make people more active
B．people tend to like telling lies when playing games
C．a message may be changed when being passed on
D．people may have problems with their sense of hearing
4、What can be inferred from the text?
A．Scholars and authors can’t be trusted.
B．Passive learning may not be reliable.
C．People like spreading rumors in daily life.
D．Active learning is more Important than passive learning.
