Sonia Denoncourt is one of the most successful celebrities in the world of women’s soccer. She made her name doing what many still think of as a “man’s job” ---refereeing(裁判) soccer matches.
The Canadian began her career as a referee in 1978, at the age of 14. She worked her way up, and in 1994, became the first female international FIFA referee. Sonia was the first woman to referee a top men’s professional game, in EL Salvador in 1996. A year later, she became the first female to referee a men’s first division game (甲级队) in Brazil. She has refereed at thousands of games at all levels, including over 100 international games, three World Cups, and two Olympic Games.
Her goal has always been to encourage more young women to become involved in the game. She accepts that it can be difficult, but she is sure that progress is possible. “I became a top referee and I’m from Canada, which is not a huge footballing nation,” she said. “So if I can do it, anyone can. And I wouldn’t change anything about my life because my career has given me excellent opportunities.”
In 1994, there were only four female referees on FIFA’s list. In 2008, this figure had risen to552---over 18 percent of the 3,000 listed FIFA referees and assistants. She is now Head of FIFA Women’s refereeing and continues to promote the role of women in soccer. However, there is still a long way to go in the battle for equality in the game.
It is still very unusual to see a female referee at the top international tournaments. Some people say this is because the women referees aren’t fit enough to work at the highest level. But for Sonia, this is simply an excuse to hide the widespread opposition to women doing what is considered a “man’s job”. “It’s a social thing,” she says. “In some countries women in positions of authority are just not accepted.” Even Sonia admits, “Football is still a man’s world.” However, things are changing, thanks to pioneering women like Sonia.
24. Which of the following can best describe Sonia Denoncourt?
A. Strong and patient.
B. Tough and generous.
C. Determined and committed.
D. Strict but humorous.
25. What can we learn from paragraph 4 about Sonia?
A. She has never been accepted as a referee.
B. She has had a great impact on women’s refereeing.
C. She has won the battle in competing with male referees.
D. She has already considered herself as a leading referee.
26. What made women have difficulty in working as referees according to Sonia?
A. Being unfit.
B. A lack of experience.
C. Weak physical power.
D. Deep-rooted opposition to women.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Woman Doing a Man’s Job.
B. A Woman Having Her Dream.
C. A Woman Bringing about Changes.
D. A Woman Involved in International Games.
C
Crossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don’t even notice that they’re doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.
A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won’t feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health issues. So, planning to sit for a long period of time? Don’t keep your legs crossed.
Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis (麻痹) of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle—what we know as that “pins and needles” sensation. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.
So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.
28. What can we learn about crossing one’s legs?
A. It is a very bad social habit.
B. It can do harm to people’ s health.
C. It is usually practiced deliberately.
D. It can make others feel uncomfortable.
29. According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can______.
A. resist gravity effectively
B. lead to heart attacks easily
C. affect your blood pressure
D. improve the function of legs
30. In the third paragraph “pins and needles” probably means______.
A. serious muscle injuries
B. being a little nervous
C. slight sharp pains
D. being highly flexible
31.What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To give readers some advice.
B. To compare common habits.
C. To introduce research methods.
D. To evaluate effects of an experiment.
D
We can text WhatsApp, Facebook message and Snapchat---but are we losing the convenience of the phone conversation? Who has time to chat when you can spend hours on WhatsApp?
Most of my phone calls are less than a minute long. If I unintentionally hit answer instead of pressing the ignore button, I usually say, “Hold on, I’ll call you back,” before quickly typing out a “what’s up?” text. My list of recent phone calls is limited to four people and unless we live together, are related, or dating, there’s very little chance that you’ll be added to that list.
It seems I’m not the only who’s abandoning the phone call. The average adult spends more time on media or communication per day than on sleeping, but among all that communication, the phone call is the medium that’s falling.
So why has the phone call fallen out of favor? Many messaging apps seem to have created a grade of communication, so that the phone call is no longer the standard way of conversing long distance, but a relatively intimate(亲密的)thing.
Rachel, 24, says that she used to speak to all her girlfriends on the phone but now only calls a few. “I rarely even speak to good friends on the phone and if they call me I’m like, ‘Hello, is something wrong?’,” says Rachel. “If I do a phone call it feels really official, like it’s a big deal.”
Instead of taking the time to ring a friend and catch up, it now seems easier to send a short message. And unless you’re very close to someone, an unscheduled phone call can feel like an intrusion (干扰). While text messages can be put to one side for hours or even days, a phone call demands attention in the moment.
But while text messages and emails may be a more efficient way of sharing basic facts and information, they’re not necessarily the best way of communication. We may be communicating more than ever before, but we seem to be listening far less.
32. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 1?
A. People chat much less on the phone now.
B. People are addicted to messaging apps.
C. People find no time to chat face-to-face.
D. People have many ways to communicate.
33. According to Rachel, when a good friend calls her, she __________.
A. will ignore the call.
B. will call back immediately.
C. will make an official visit to her friend.
D. will think her friend has some problems.
34. What can be learned from the text?
A. Text messages demand immediate attention.
B. An unscheduled phone call may be unwelcome.
C. Using a phone call to communicate is out of date.
D. It is hard to keep track of friends on messaging apps.
35. What is the author’s attitude towards phone conversation?
A. Doubtful. B. Uncaring. C. Supportive. D. Hopeful.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before. But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when online. 36 Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.
For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 37
If someone online is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 38 If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others online.
39 Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license (特许) to correct everyone else. 40 At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.
It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status(婚姻状况). Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.
A．Everyone was new to the network once.
B．If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.
C．It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.
D．The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.
E．You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.
F．When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to Hear.
G．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the persons face.

Usually, when we talk about reading, we think of using our eyes 56 (see) letters written in ink on paper. 57 , this is not always true. For example, blind people cannot see, but they can still read books.
The man 58 (introduce) blind people to reading was Louis Braille. Braille lost his eyesight at the age of three as a result of 59 injury. When he was ten, he went to a school for the blind in Paris.
In 1821, a soldier visited the school and showed the students a system for passing 60 (message) at night during times of battle. His system used paper with small, raised dots 61 could be felt with the fingers. Each letter of the alphabet was represented by a different pattern which 62 (make) up of twelve dots. While the students found the soldier’s idea interesting, the system was too difficult to be 63 practical use. But young Louis Braille took the idea and worked on it. At the age of fifteen, he created a system ---“Braille.”
The blind can 64 (easy) recognize Braille with the fingers. Today, 65 is the most common system for them to read and write.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was ten years old, I lived with my family in a small house in rural South Jersey. I often accompanied my mother to the A&P to buy goods. Without a car, we walked, and I would help her carry the bags.
My mother had to shop very carefully, as she was a waitress, and the money she earned could only raise the family. One day. while she was waiting in line to pay for the goods, a promotional(促销的) display for the World Book“ Encyclopedia(百科全书)” caught my eye. The books were beautifully cream-colored and you could buy one only with ninety-nine cents if you had already had a ten-dollar purchase.
All I could think of while shopping was the book. I stood at the check-out counter with my mother, holding my breath as the cashier rang up the items. It came to over eleven dollars. My mother took out a five, and a handful of change. As she was counting out the money, I somehow found the courage to ask for the encyclopedia. “Could we get one?” I said, showing her the display. “It’s only ninety-nine cents.”
I did not understand my mother’s increasing anxiety: she did not have enough change and had to give up a large can of peas to pay the amount. “Not now, Patricia,” she said seriously. “Today is not a good day.” I packed the goods and followed her home, upset.
The next Saturday, my mother gave me a dollar and sent me to the A&P alone. Two bottles of milk and a loaf of bread----that’s what a dollar in 1957. I went straight to the World Book display. There was only one encyclopedia left, which I placed in my cart. I didn’t need a cart, but took one so I could read as I went up and down the aisles(过道). A lot of time went by and I knew I had to leave, but I couldn’t bear to part with the book. With no security guard in sight, I, quickly, put it inside my shirt and zipped(扣上拉链)up my jacket. I was a tall, thin kid, and I am certain the shape of the book was obvious.
