第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。 C2[2015·全国卷Ⅱ]
A
My colour television has given me nothing but a headache.I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn't fit.I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later，when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had
paid.The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed_off for the night. Fortunately, I didn't get any channels showing all-night movies or I
would never have gotten to bed.
Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason，when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually，this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it，I had to change to another channel and then change it back.Sometimes this technique would not work，and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.
When neither of these methods removed the static noise，I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away.At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist，and it stopped working altogether.My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now，but I keep expecting more trouble.
21．Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set? A．He got an older model than he had expected. B．He couldn't return it when it was broken. C．He could have bought it at a lower price. D．He failed to find any movie shows on it.
22．Which of the following can best replace the phrase“signed off” in Paragraph 1? A．ended all their programmes
B．provided fewer channels C．changed to commercials D．showed all-night movies
23．How did the author finally get his TV set working again? A．By shaking and hitting it. B．By turning it on and off. C．By switching channels. D．By having it repaired.
24. How does the author sound when telling the story? A．Curious. B．Anxious. C．Cautious. D．Humorous.
【要点综述】 本文主要介绍了作者认为自己受到了售货员的欺骗，购买了一台彩电，它不但价格昂贵，而且还出现了静电噪声。虽然作者采取各种措施消除这种噪声，但是都没有效果。最后作者花了几乎和电视机一样多的钱对电视机进行了修理。
21. C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的 “I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later，when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid.”可知作者本来可以以更低的价格购买这台彩电，故选C项。
22. A 词义猜测题。根据第一段最后一句“Fortunately, I didn't get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.”可知作者庆幸自己没有整夜播放电影的频道，那样的话，节目就完不了，自己就不能睡觉了，因此可推出sign off意为“(电视节目)结束播映”。
23. D 细节理解题。文章的最后一句“My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now…”证明了作者最后只好去花钱修理电视机。
24. D 推理判断题。这是一道推理作者讲述故事的时候，以什么口吻来讲述的试题。文章中第一段提到“Fortunately, I didn't get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.”；第二段提到当作者不断地摇晃电视来消除噪声的时候， 作者说
了“I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉)…”。这些都体现了作者幽默的叙述手法。故选择D项。
C7[2015·全国卷Ⅱ]
B
Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情)when they're in poorly lit places—and
so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn't have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colours. Research suggests warm colours fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 per cent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colours like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colours make us feel less hungry. So when it's time to repaint, go blue.
Don't forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you're at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 per cent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large
spoon over a smaller one，total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 per cent. And we'll pour about 30 per cent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
25．The text is especially helpful for those who care about________． A．their home comforts B．their body shape C．house buying D．healthy diets
26．A home environment in blue can help people________． A．digest food better B．reduce food intake C．burn more calories D．regain their appetites
27．What are people advised to do at mealtimes? A．Eat quickly. B．Play fast music. C．Use smaller spoons. D．Turn down the lights.
28．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Is your house making you fat?
