After 24 years I decided that I wanted to return to school and earn a degree. Some told me that it was too late. Others told me that I was too old. My heart told me that if it were meant to be that God would make it happen. One day while looking up information on how to go about getting into college, a little window popped up on my screen. It said, “Do you think you are too old to go back to school？” I clicked on the box and there I found an online college. I spoke to someone in the school and they assisted me in getting loans to pay for it. They told me that I could take classes any way that I wanted. I also found out that I could attend classes from home so that I could be there for my son. Now today, almost 2 years later, I will be not only graduating but graduating with honors. So for anyone out there who thinks that something is out of reach or impossible, remember this: if I would have listened to those people who told me I couldnt do it, then today would just be Saturday.第二部分阅读理解(满分40分，限时35分钟)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。AThere are many great theme parks in the UK.

That year I was six. In class I learned basic phrases for greeting and describing objects. I dont have much memory for the first year of English learning. The only thing that I still remember is reading vocabulary list. A classmate of mine who was good at English would lead the whole class to read the list. One of the new words that I learned that year was “earth”. “The earth orbits the sun，” he said in Chinese. Every time we came to the word “earth”， he would repeat that sentence. I was secretly admiring him because he knew the earth orbits the sun.My family moved when I was in my second grade, and I transferred (转学) to a private school. My English class continued. Luckily I could use the same series of text books.I stayed in the same private school for my junior high school, which is from the 7th to the 9th grade. In junior high school, I hardly felt my English skill improved because the first English class here was still titled “Good Morning” and the content was still basic greetings.Following was one year of high school life: a_different_school,_the_same_story.Then my family moved again, and I began to really use English. We came to America. I attended a couple years of high school, and now Im in college. I learn to write essays and start to read books in English. I can see my progress. However, I still have a lot of space to improve. In writing, the flow between sentences isnt good and Im still using basic words. In speaking, maybe because I hang out with Chinese speaking friends too much, it takes me time to think when telling long stories.25In Grade One, the author admired that classmate because he _.Acould speak two languagesBhad a very wide vocabularyCoften led the whole class to readDknew about the earth and the sun解析：选D细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“I was secretly admiring him because he knew the earth orbits the sun.”可知，答案应选D项。26How did the author most probably feel during the first English class in junior high school?AMoved.BInterested.CDisappointed. DRelaxed.解析：选C推理判断题。根据第三段的“In junior high school .still basic greetings.”可推断，作者当时很失望。27What do we learn about the author now?AShe is looked down upon by others.BShe still isnt very fluent in English.CShe has no chance to speak Chinese now.DShe likes practicing English through telling long stories.解析：选B推理判断题。根据最后一段的However后面的内容可推断，作者现在英语还不是很流利。28The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means in senior high school the author _.Adidnt live a very difficult lifeBliked her new school very muchClearned English in a different wayDhad to learn simple English all over again解析：选D句意理解题。根据第三段的内容可知，作者进入初中后英语又得从头学习，而画线句子的意思是：进入高中后还是这样，故选D项。CLast year was very busy, but productive and fun.My little daughter had just turned two. We had no other people to help clean our apartment or feed a hungry husband. Even with these responsibilities, I was determined to learn new languages. Five languages, to be exact.Sound impossible? And why would I want to learn five languages? It all started with the Michael Erards book Babel No More. If you love learning languages but hesitate to study more than one or two, you must read this book. Babel No More draws upon the concept of neuroplasticity (神经可塑性). Today, many of us memorize very little information. Why bother if all information is within arms length?Learning a foreign language after graduation is one of the few ways for us to train our memories. A good memory is extremely important for everyone during retirement years. We take pleasure in training our bodies, but we neglect to train our brains, even though learning a second language is such a simple way to stay sharp throughout our lives. Therefore, I opened my laptop and made a simple list of the languages I wanted to learn：Monday German, Tuesday Spanish, Wednesday French, Thursday Chinese. Friday was free until August. Then I wrote Czech in the blank. I thought about learning Japanese, but I decided that this language should be learned in a calmer, quieter setting. I can now speak all five of these languages with varying degrees of fluency.In the process, I improved my memorization skills, and learned how to make the most of my free time. In addition, I gave my little daughter English classes.Honestly speaking, to live a year on such a schedule was quite a challenge. Without selfdiscipline (自律)，it would have never worked out. From time to time, I had to cancel my lessons simply because I needed to sleep. However, if you have a language learning dream, you have to work for it. There is simply no other way, and the results are definitely worth all the efforts.语篇解读：作者在照顾家庭的同时，学习了五门外语。虽然很难，但是作者认为这样做很值得。29What does the author want to show by telling about her family?AShe was a lazy woman.BShe actually led a busy life.CShe wasnt satisfied with her life.DShe needed something to have a change.解析：选B推理判断题。根据第二段的“My little daughter had just turned two. We had no other people to help clean our apartment or feed a hungry husband.”可推断，作者是想表明自己其实很忙。30According to Paragraph 4, why should we learn a foreign language after graduation?ABecause it will enrich our future life.BBecause it is a pleasure for us to do that.CBecause it will help our brains stay active.DBecause it helps us perform better at work.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第四段的“one of the few ways for us to train our memories”以及“learning a second language is such a simple way to stay sharp throughout our lives”可知，学习外语可以让我们的大脑保持活跃。31Why didnt the author learn Japanese?ABecause she considered it too difficult.BBecause she couldnt spare any time for it.CBecause she loved the other languages more.DBecause she didnt have a good environment for it.解析：选D推理判断题。根据第五段的“I thought about learning Japanese, but I decided that this language should be learned in a calmer, quieter setting.”可知，作者没有学日语是因为她觉得自己没有学习日语的环境。32What does the author think of language learning according to the last paragraph?AIts fun and useful.BIts simple and fun.CIts hard but worthwhile.DIts too challenging and unworthy.解析：选C细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Honestly speaking, to live a year on such a schedule was quite a challenge.”以及“There is simply no other way, and the results are definitely worth all the efforts.”可知，作者觉得学习外语虽然很难，但是很值得。DPeople who smoke could lose around one third of their everyday memory, researchers say.A study by a team at Northumbria University has shown that smokers lose more of their memory when compared to nonsmokers. And the research also found that those who kicked the habit saw their ability to recollect information restored to almost the same level as nonsmokers. The study involved more than seventy 18 to 25yearolds and included a tour of the universitys campus.Those who took part were asked to recall small details, such as music acts listed to play at the students union and tasks completed at various points known as real world memory test. Smokers performed badly, remembering just 59 percent of tasks. But those who had given up smoking remembered 74 percent and those who had never smoked recalled 81 percent of tasks.Dr Tom Heffernan, who leads Northumbria Universitys Collaboration for Drug and Alcohol Research Group, said the findings would be useful in antismoking campaigns. He said：“Given that there are up to 10 million smokers in the UK and as many 45 million in the United States, its important to understand the effects smoking has on everyday cognitive function of which prospective memory is an excellent example.”“This is the first time that a study has set out to examine whether giving up smoking has impact on memory.
