第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，38分）
第一节（共14小题；每小题2分，共28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，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
A
Emergencies are scary, but there is now a new smart ring on the market that will quickly call for help when you need it most. Meet Nimb, a ring that includes a panic button. It lets you send emergency alerts (警报) to preset contacts from its mobile app with the touch of a thumb. Whether you are being attacked or experiencing a serious health problem, Nimb will help keep you safe and sound.
Smart Ring to the Rescue
The story behind the development with this new technology is unique and touching. In 2010, Kathy Roma, who is the co-founder and communications lead with Nimb, was violently attacked by a complete stranger and was on the brink of death. She suffered multiple stab wounds in a safe neighborhood, just a few feet away from a police station. Her saving grace wasn't just her fight and drive to survive, but the call for help.
Since then, she has been searching to find a way for others to have a voice when they’re in need of help and has been a
driving force in the development of this new technology. And Nimb is easy to use. All you need to do when you are in trouble is press its button for three seconds and an instant message will be sent to your contacts. Your contacts will get instant emergency alerts on their smartphones and tablets. This smart ring tracks your exact location in real time and your contacts will know where you are at all times.
Nimb’s app includes an alert card, and built-in chat and notification features. The ring is compatible (兼容的) with Bluetooth 4+, iOS 7+ and Android 4+. It is also equipped with a rechargeable LiPo Battery that will last about two weeks, and is designed to withstand water and dust.
Nimb: Stay Safe in Style
What makes this smart ring extra special is that it is cool and futuristic looking. It comes in two colors: Stealth Black and Classic White. The ring is available in US ring sizes 4-12, which means you can wear it on any of your fingers. There's no doubt this new technology will be a hit on the market: everyone wants to have that extra piece of mind when it comes to health and safety. Nimb retails for $129.
21 Nimb is designed to help users_________.
A. relieve pain in stressful situations
B. warn friends of surrounding dangers
C. call contacts for help in emergencies

22. Kathy Roma got the idea of Nimb from________.

It was a reading class. While all her classmates were flying through the 2nd and 3rd books in the Harry Potter series Skye Malik, only on page four of the first book, got impossibly stuck on the word "doughnut”.
Her unexpected difficulty with reading is called dyslexia. Skye got a professional diagnosis at the end of the 2nd grade. Knowing that other kids were going through the same thing made it easier on her somehow. What wasn’t easy, even after all the help she got from special tutors and reading programs, was fluent reading. What many people do without thinking- reading-she had to struggle with word by word, sometimes letter by letter. In class, she would hear the other kids flip through the
pages on assignments and go on to the questions while she was still doing battle with the first paragraph.
She was as frustrated as she was discouraged. But she didn't know of any other way until her 4th grade teacher, Miss Pollock, told her about something called Learning Ally.
Learning Ally is a non-profit organization that offers audio versions of books. A crew of volunteer readers has recorded 75,000 classic novels, children’s books, and school textbooks that help more than 300,000 students and adults with learning differences or who are blind. Now Skye could listen to the books with her ears and follow the words with her eyes on the page, Instead of having her mother read her textbooks to her, she could independently do her work. “With Learning Ally, I feel confident and capable and can easily keep up with my classmates,” Skye explains, “and I want other kids to feel empowered, just the way I did.”
So Skye, now aged 16, created The Paco Project which was named after her grandfather whose nickname was “Paco”. The Paco Project is a fundraiser and educational initiative focusing on giving students with dyslexia access to the same Learning Ally technology that changed her life.
Skye has realized that she is one of the lucky kids who have been diagnosed. She knows that educating teachers about dyslexia and giving students with the learning challenge the tools they need is a great first step in meeting dyslexia head on, and helping them be confident, capable students.
“Right now they feel stuck-ashamed, unsure and insecure about their school work. If I could help stop these students feeling this way, that would mean the world to me.”
24. According to the passage, Skye ________.
A. found a way out with the help of Miss Pollock
B. felt annoyed at being teased by her classmates
C. preferred reading the first book of Harry Potter
D. was diagnosed with dyslexia in her fourth grade
25. The Paco Project was created ________.
A. to promote Learning Ally technology
B. to empower those with reading difficulty
C. with inspiration from Skye’s grandfather
D. in response to the growing demands of teachers
26. The passage mainly about ________.
A. what people with dyslexia are suffering
B. what measures are needed to beat dyslexia
C. how Learning Ally influenced people with dyslexia
D. how Skye battled against dyslexia and helped others
C
The philosopher Martin Buber, is most known for his work on "I-Thou/You” relationships in which people: are open,
direct, mutually interested in each other. In contrast, “I-It” relationships are those in which we use the other, like an object, to solve our problems and fulfill our needs and purposes.
It is not our fault that many of our relationships are or become “It” relationships because most of what we feel, think and do is motivated by unconscious memories of how to survive the environment into which we were born. Thus, one of the reasons we use other people to help us feel better about ourselves and cope in the world is that using people was once necessary and it worked. When we were small and helpless, “It” came and fed us, and held us, and set us on our way. We didn't have to reciprocate and care for “It”. Even when the care and attention of “It” was minimal or unpredictable, if we got out of childhood alive, somewhere along the way“It”was involved.
Freud called this stage of early life "primary narcissism"，which is our instinct (本能) for self-preservation and is a normal pay of our development. While most of us grow out of it, we still hold a survival fear. which motivates to escape danger and to stay alive, and we all need this fear in healthy measure.
The problem is that too many of us much or the time, are in a constant state threat-and we often don’t know it. We imagine people are talking about us behind our backs, that we have cancer, that we are inadequate, and vulnerable to more than our share of bad luck. As our brain have grown in size and complexity. so has our ability to scare ourselves.
This causes many problems, For example, our stress levels increase, our digestion is impaired and our thinking becomes restricted. Our threat response stops any bodily function, feeling, thought and behavior that might “waste” energy and detract from fighting or escaping danger. Thus, when in threat, our emotional, cognitive and behavioral range is significantly reduced.
And in this reduced state, one of our solutions is to find someone who can save and comfort us. Instead of enabling us to be open, direct and mutual, fear and anxiety lead us towards conversations and choices in our relations with others that are orientated towards surviving not thriving (茁壮成长). Threat-motivated relationships are characterized by need, dependency, control, demand, dishonesty, and self- interest.
We cannot form the “I-Thou” relationships that Buber speaks of until we have learned to notice, comfort, and understand the emotions and patterns of our threat brain. When in threat, we tend to use other people as objects who can save and protect us, or who we can blame for our problems.
27. What does the underlined word “reciprocate” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Return the favour.
B. Ask for some advice.
C. Convey an apology.
D. Make some comments.
28. What can we learn about “primary narcissism”?
A. It leads to our survival fear.
B. It is normal and usually temporary.
C. It impacts our growth negatively.
D. It lays the foundation for Freud's theory.
29. Which of the following could be an example of “I-It” relationships?
A. Comforting an upset friend.
B. Feeling sorry for your mistakes
C. Trying hard to be independent.
D. Asking others to take on your task.
30. What would be the best tile for this passage?
A. How We Can Form the “I-Thou” Relationships
B. How We Can Get Out of the“I-1t” Relationships
