三. 阅读理解 (共15小题，计20分)

第一节：阅读下面一篇短文，判断下列句子是否符合短文内容，符合的用“A”表示，不符合的用“B”表示。 (共5小题，计5分)

A

If you find that your young child is telling a lie (谎言), don’t worry. According to Canadian scientists, it’s quite normal.

The scientists tested 1,200 children. They were two to seventeen years old. The study showed that those who were able to tell a lie had arrived at an important stage

(阶段) of development.

Only one fifth of two-year-olds tested in the study were able to tell a lie and nearly 50% of three-year-olds could tell a lie. The study also found 90% of four-year-olds were able to lie and almost every child at the age of 12 told lies. But just 70% of 16-year-olds told a lie.

Kang Lee, a teacher of Toronto University, was the leader of the research team. He said, “Parents shouldn’t be worried if their child tells a lie. Almost all children lie. It is a sign that they have arrived at a new stage of development.”

Why? Because kids that can lie have developed an ability which is helpful to keep the truth at the back of their brain (大脑). For small children, telling a lie can show intelligence (智力) — quick thinking; it is an ability to hide (隐瞒) the truth and make up the lie in their brain at the same time.

“They might even be famous or successful in the future,” Lee added.

(   )21. From the study, we learn that 50% of two-year-olds could tell lies.

(   )22. 12-year-olds are the most likely (最有可能) to tell lies.

(   )23. The writer wants to tell parents not to worry if their kids lie.

(   )24. Kang Lee likes those who like telling lies.

(   )25. All kids can be successful if they are able to lie.

第二节：阅读下面三篇短文，从各小题所给的四个选项中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的一个最佳答案。 (共10小题，计15分)

B

Survey: What were you scared of when you were a kid?

I was scared of spiders but I didn’t let my friends know because all of them liked catching these spiders. I was terrified but I just acted cool.

— Buding, still afraid of spiders

I was scared of the dark because I didn’t know if there was something scary inside the room. As a result, I always liked sleeping with my back facing the wall because it made me a little comfortable.

— Gerard, not so afraid of the dark anymore, but still sleeps with his back facing the wall

Strange as it probably sounds, I was scared of shadows (影子). Not the shadows themselves, but what they formed (形成). Because I was near-sighted (近视的), the shadows I saw formed into the scariest things I saw in my mind.

— Jean, no longer afraid of shadows

I was afraid of the old woman who lived alone right in front of us. Very large trees covered the front part of her small house. The few times I saw the old woman, it scared me because she looked like a witch

(女巫). Once I was playing volleyball with my friends and the ball flew into her house. We all ran home quickly and decided that it was okay to lose the ball instead of seeing her come out of the house.

— Mac, who has already moved to a different house
