A. whose
B. whom
C. that
D. who
【答案】D
【解析】考查定语从句．本句是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是parents，在定语从句中做主语，所以用who来引导．whom不能做主语，whose做定语，所以答案选D．我们看到Jesus在那些失业的父母的子女中，他们努力为他们的孩子提供一个安全和和平的未来。
22. You don’t need an invitation to help others. Give help ______you are asked.
A. If

23. The best student of the year shared his experience of _______he had managed to achieved excellence in his preparation for the college entrance examination.
A. if
B. how
C. what
D. that
【答案】B
【解析】考查宾语从句。结合句意，今年最优秀的学生分享了他在准备高考的过程如何做到卓越的经历。how 意为“如何”，在此处担任of 的宾语，再和of 一起作experience 的后置定语，符合句意。故正确答案为B。
24. The singer confirmed her claim she had made to the media ________she said she would leave the band.
A. what
B. that
C. when
D. where
【答案】D
【解析】考查名词性从句。she had made to the media为修饰语，修饰her claim，后面she said she would not leave the band完整，不是定语从句，her claim暗示是“在他的申明中”，用where。故选D。

B. whether
C. how
D. who

【解析】考查定语从句。本句缺少先行词，定语是whose telephone number is provided，可知先行词是agent，根据句意“Mary你怎样和旅行社取得的联系？我上网，然后给一家给我们提供电话号码的旅行社打电话。”可知，并不是特指一家，而是泛指，故选A。
27. For middle-aged people, fat is more likely to _______ around the hips and stomachs.

D. Having surrounded
【答案】C
【解析】考查固定句型．surround在这里作及物动词，是"环绕，包围"的意思，后接名词或代词作宾语，用于被动结构；surround后面加介词with表示"被…围住"．这是"祈使句+and+一般将来时"句型，祈使句的结构是以动词原形开头，所以答案选C。置身于积极的人当中你就会专注于你有能力做的事情，而不是你不能做的。

第四部分：阅读理解（30分）
A
A: On today's Words and Their Stories we talk about a common word, a small word, but a word that is completely necessary for human life. In fact, without this simple, everyday material, all humans would die.
B: Scientists know it as sodium chloride. We know it as salt.
You may think, salt is just a simple cooking element we shake on our food for a little extra taste. But salt is much more than that.
A: Without salt our muscles would not move. Our nervous systems would not operate. Our hearts would not beat. Salt means life.
But do not think rubbing salt in a wound will help. Doing that would be painful and not heal the wound. To rub salt in a wound is an idiom that means to purposefully make a bad situation worse.
B: Early humans got the salt they needed to stay alive from the animals they killed. But advances in agriculture led to a diet low in salt. So, humans needed to find other sources.
A: Those who lived near the ocean or other natural sources for salt were lucky. Those who did not had to trade for salt. In fact, people used salt as a method of payment in many parts of the ancient world. The word "salary" comes from the word "salt."
B: Salt also played an important part in population movement and world exploration. Explorers understood that if they could keep food fresh, they could travel longer distances. So they used salt to preserve food and explored the world.
Salt meant movement.
A: Salt also changed the way nations fought. With preserved food on ships, nations could sail to distant lands …and then attack them.
Salt meant power.
B: Salt was so important that, according to food historians, it was traded pound-for-pound for gold. Today, people still use the expressions to be worth one's salt or worth one's weight in salt. The expressions describe a person who is useful, a person of value.
A: A person might also be called salt of the earth. That description means he or she is dependable and trustworthy. The phrase comes from the Christian Bible. Jesus called his loyal group of followers -- or disciples -- the salt of the earth.
B: But one of these disciples was not so loyal. The disciple Judas betrayed Jesus. In his famous painting "The Last Supper," Leonardo da Vinci shows Judas spilling a bowl of salt. Spilled salt is a sign of bad luck and trouble. And trouble is exactly what Judas gave Jesus.
A: Even today, some people throw salt over one shoulder if they spill it. They believe throwing salt behind them scares any devil that has been following them -- or at least blinds it for a second while they run away.
B: But these stories about bad luck should be taken with a grain of salt. In other words, listen to a story or an explanation with suspicion and distrust.
A: But you don't have to take the information you find on VOA Learning English with a grain of salt. We do our
research.
B: What about your culture? Do you have any idioms or expressions about salt? In the comments section, share a story of salt from your culture.
I'm Jonathan Evans.
A: And I'm Anna Matteo. Join us again for another Words and Their Stories. We'll take a deeper look at the words in American English.
56. How many other meanings does salt have on top of a little extra taste?
A. Five.
B. Four.
C. Three.
D. Two.
57. Which of the following is True?
A. To rub salt in a wound can make things from good to better.
B. If we say somebody is worth his salt, we mean he is significant.
C. If you take his adventure story with a grain of salt, you don't think he is trustworthy.

57.C.细节题。根据文章中的But these stories about bad luck should be taken with a grain of salt. In other words, listen to a story or an explanation with suspicion and distrust.可知但是这些关于厄运的故事应该用一粒盐来进行。换句话说，听故事的时候要带着怀疑和不信任，说明他是不值得信任的，所以C选项是正确的。
B
Dishonesty is a slippery slope. If you behave dishonestly once, you may become more likely to do so again in the future, a new study from England showed. The reason may be that the brain grows less sensitive to
self-serving dishonest behavior over time, the researcher said.
In the study, the researchers asked 80 adults aged 18 to 65 to advise a second person about the amount of money in a glass jar of pennies. In several of the trials, conditions made sure dishonesty benefited the participants. For example, the researchers might promise the participants a higher reward if their partners overestimated the number of pennies in the jar.
People’ s dishonesty escalated (升级) over the course of these trials. “This study is the first experimental evidence that dishonest behavior escalates,” said Neil Garrett, the lead author of the st udy and an experimental psychology researcher at University College London.
With 25 of the participants, the researchers conducted the penny-jar experiments while a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) machine scanned the person’s brain. The result s showed that the amygdala, a part of the brain connected to emotions, showed a marked reduction in activity in response to self-serving dishonesty over the course of the trials.
In fact, researchers found that the amount of the reduction in the amygdala’s activity for each trial could predict the amount that the participant’s dishonesty would increase by in the next trial: The more the amygdala’s
activity reduces during one trial, the bigger the lie would be the next time. “It is likely that brain’s blunte d response to repeated acts of dishonesty reflects a reduced emotional response to these acts,” Garrett said.
The study also offers support for the idea that the activity in the amygdala “signals aversion (厌恶) to acts that we consider wrong or immoral,” Ga rrett said. In other words, whenever a person lies for personal gain, the amygdala produces a negative feeling that helps control that act-but the more often a person lies, the more the response fades, leading to a slippery slope that may encourage an escalation of dishonest behavior.
People in the study actually lied the most when their lies benefited both them and their partners. “This may be because it is easier to rationalize these lies,” said Tail Sharot, the senior author of the study and an associate professor of cognitive neuroscience at University College London. In this condition, the amygdala did not show the same response pattern as when people lied simply to benefit themselves.
Interestingly, though, the researchers found that study participants never lied as much as they could have. Participants’ estimates of the value of the coins in the jar were always significantly lower than the ceiling, meaning that the individuals “always had an opportunity to lie more than they actually did,” the paper sa id. Sharot explained that people usually lie by just a little bit, perhaps so they can still hold a relatively positive perception of themselves.
“Still, the results may have important implications for other types of decision-making, such as risk-taking or violent behavior,” the researchers said. “The results show the possible dangers of regular engagement in small acts of dishonesty, risks that are frequently observed in fields ranging from business to politics and law enforcement,” the scientists wrote in their findings. “The study suggests that repeated small lies may pave the way for larger lies over time,” the researchers said.
58. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Dishonesty can change a person as time goes on.
B. Dishonesty mak es a person’s brain less sensitive.
C. Dishonesty makes a person tend to feel ashamed.
D. Dishonesty may lead to more dishonest behavior.
59. According to the study, lies easily occur when .
A. lies benefit those who tell lies
B. people have been lied to
C. people have no choice but to lie
D. both sides benefit from these lies
60. It can be inferred that the study in the passage .
A. makes no sense
B. is not reliable
C. is very significant
D. is quite comprehensive
61. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Lies develop more lies

C
Two new electronic book products (the SoftBook and the PocketBook) have gathered extensive press coverage, including articles in ABC News, the New York Times, San Jose Mercury News, and WIRED.
An electronic book (e-book) is a book-length publication in digital form, consisting of text, images, or both, and produced on, published through, and readable on computers or other electronic devices. Different from a traditional printed book, e-books are born digital.
Being a firm believer in tablet computers for many tasks not involving heavy data entry, I applaud these new designs of the products. In particular, the SoftBook has nice leather binding(封皮), going far beyond the traditional (and boring) industrial design used for other portable computers. The PocketBook has a more traditional industrial design, typical of leading electronic gadgets(小配件).
Unfortunately, neither company mentions their product's screen resolution(分辨率). Low-resolution monitors (including all computer screens until now) have poor readability: people read about 25% slower from computer screens than from printed paper. Scientists believe that only the screen with 300 dpi displays has the same reading speed as print. So unless they have much better screens, electronic books will have a problem.
A project called "the last book" is getting much attention, which aims at producing a computer in the form of a folio(对开本): a set of pages using "digital ink". Users would move forward in the information by turning pages just as they do in a printed book. Hopefully, the scientists will eventually invent a way to make the "digital ink" display characters at a high enough resolution to gain the same reading speed as print.
Even when e-books gain the same reading speed as print, they will still be a bad idea. Page turning remains a bad interface(界面), even when it can be done more conveniently than by clicking the mouse on a "next page" button.
Another problem is that most e-book publishers do not warn their customers about the real meaning of the digital rights management (DRM) tied to their products. Generally they claim that it is meant to prevent copying of the e-book. However, in many cases it is also possible that it will result in the complete denial of access by the purchaser to the e-book. The e-book is tied to a specific computer or device. In these cases, the DRM will usually let the purchaser move the book a limited number of times after which they cannot use it on any additional devices. If the purchaser upgrades or replaces their devices, they may lose access to their purchase. Some forms of the DRM depend on the existence of online services to authenticate(认证) the purchasers. When the company that provides the service goes out of business or decides to stop providing the service, the purchaser will no longer be able to access the e-book.
62. From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3, we know that the writer _____.
A. has bought the two new products before
B. likes the special designs of the new products
C. thinks it more convenient to use traditional computers
D. doesn't like the traditional design of portable computers
63. We can learn from the passage that _____.
A. born digital, e-books can only be read on computers
B. "digital ink" has gained the same reading speed as print
C. now all the computers are using the screens with 300 dpi displays
D. e-books may have slower reading speed compared with printed books
64. Due to the digital rights management, _____.
A. the e-book should be tied to a specific device
B. people should upgrade their devices regularly
C. readers are likely to lose access to their purchase
D. only purchasers can download the book without limit
65. This passage mainly talks about _____.
A. the disadvantages of electronic books
B. the future of electronic books
C. the designs of electronic books
D. two new electronic books
【答案】BDCA
【解析】
62. 推断题。由第三段作者对Softbook 和Pocketbook 设计的称赞可知作者非常喜欢新产品的设计，故正确答案为B。
63. 细节题。由第四段第二句“people read about 25% slower from computer screens than from printed paper.” 可知D项正确。A项，由第三段第一句“Being a firm believer in tablet computers for many tasks not involving heavy data entry, I applaud these new designs of the products.” 可知A项错误。B项，由第五段最后一句“Hopefully, the scientists will eventually invent a way to make the "digital ink" display characters at a high enough resolution to gain the same reading speed as print.” 可知这项技术现在还未实现，所以B项错误。C 项，文中没有相关内容，所以C项错误。故正确答案为D。
64. 细节题。由最后一段第二、三句“Generally they claim that it is meant to prevent copying of the e-book. However, in many cases it is also possible that it will result in the complete denial of access by the purchaser to the e-book.” 可知正确答案为C。
65. 主旨题。作者在文章开头介绍了两种新的电子书产品并称赞了其设计，但接下来作者主要讲的是电子书的缺点，包括分辨率低、界面设计不合理以及版权问题等，由此可推断作者写这篇文章主要是为了谈论电子书的缺点，所以A项正确。而B、C、D项均未谈及电子书的缺点，所以B、C、D项错误。故正确答案为A。
D
For many people, particularly immigrants, the American Dream is that talent and hard work can take you from log cabin to the White House. Tony Trivisonno did not rise as high as the White House, yet he managed to make his own dream come true.
He came from a farm in Italy. One evening I found him standing behind my garage.
"I mow （割草）your lawn, "he said. It was hard to comprehend his broken English.
I asked him his name. "Tony Trivisonno, "he replied. "I mow your lawn. "I told Tony that I couldn't afford a
gardener.
"I mow your lawn, "he said again, then walked away. Yes, these Depression days were difficult, but how could I refuse a person who had come to me for help?
When I got home from work the next evening, the lawn had been mowed and the walks swept. I asked my wife what had happened.
"A man had worked on the yard, "she answered. "I thought you had hired him. "
I told her of my experience the night before. We thought it strange that Tony had not asked for pay.
The next Friday, I saw Tony again, behind the garage. I praised him for the work he had done.
"I mow your lawn, "he said.
I managed to give him some kind of small weekly pay, and each day Tony cleaned up the yard and took care of any little tasks. My wife said he was very helpful whenever there were anything heavy to lift or things to fix.
Summer passed into fall, and winds blew cold. "Mr. Craw, snow pretty soon, "Tony told me one evening. "When winter comes, you give me job clearing snow at the factory. "
Well, how do you deal with such determination and hope? Of course, Tony got his job at the factory.
One day I found Tony at our meeting place behind the garage. "I want to be apprentice （学徒）"he said.
We had a pretty good apprentice school that trained workers. But I doubted whether Tony were able to read blueprints or do precision work. Still, how could I turn him down?
Tony took a cut in pay to become an apprentice. Months later, I got a report that he had graduated as a skilled grinder （磨工）. My wife and I were delighted with what Tony had achieved.
A year or two passed, and again I found Tony in his usual waiting place. "Mr. Craw, "he said, "I like to buy a house. "In the town, he had found a completely old house for sale.
I called on a banker friend. "Do you ever loan money on character? "I asked. "No, "he said.
"Now, wait a minute, "I replied. "Here is a hard-working man, a man of character, I can promise you that. He's got a good job. And he will pay your interest. "
Unwillingly, the banker loaned Tony 2, 000 and helped him buy the house. Tony was delighted. From the non, it was interesting to see that any abandoned odds and ends around our place were gathered and taken home by Tony.
After about two years, I found Tony in our familiar meeting spot. He seemed to stand a little straighter and looked confident.
"Mr. Craw, I sell the house and buy a farm. "
We sat down and talked. He told me that he had persuaded his childhood friend to move to America. With a satisfied look in his eye, he told me that when they came to his little farm, his friend stood in amazement and said, "Tony, you are a millionaire!"
Then, during the World WarⅡ, news came from my company that Tony had passed away.
When my people came to visit his family, they found the farm green with vegetables, the little house comfortable and homey. The children were educated and working, and Tony didn't owe a cent.
Tony, as well as all the greatest American businessmen, had reached their success in the same way and by the same values: vision, determination, optimism, self-respect and, above all, honesty.
Tony Trivisonno came to America seeking the American Dream. But he didn't find it-he created it for himself.

[答案]ADBAC
[解析]
66. A. 细节理解题. 根据"I mow your lawn, "he said again, then walked away. Yes, these Depression days were difficult, but how could I refuse a person who had come to me for help? 可知, 他重复说我修剪你的草坪, 是他决心要获得一份工作. 所以A选项是正确的.
67. D. 推理判断题. 根据When my people came to visit his family, they found the farm green with vegetables, the little house comfortable and homey. The children were educated and working, and Tony didn't owe a cent. 可以推测出, 孩子们受过教育和工作, 托尼不欠一分钱显示出了托尼的真诚. 所以D选项是正确的.
68. B. 推理判断题. 根据上下文I called on a banker friend. "Do you ever loan money on character? "I asked. "No, "he said. "Now, wait a minute, "I replied. "Here is a hard-working man, a man of character, I can promise you that. He's got a good job. And he will pay your interest. "可以推测出, 作者说这句话的意思是他认为一个坚定和勤奋的男人应该得到贷款, 尽管贫困.
69. A. 细节理解题. 根据"Mr. Craw, I sell the house and buy a farm. "We sat down and talked. He told me that he had persuaded his childhood friend to move to America. With asatisfied look in his eye, he told me that when they came to his little farm, his friend stood in amazement and said, "Tony, you are a millionaire!"可以看出, 卖了房子买农场是一个智慧的决定. 所以A选项是正确的.
70. C. 细节理解题. 根据We had a pretty good apprentice school that trained workers. But I doubted whether Tony were able to read blueprints or do precision work. Still, how could I turn him down? 可知, 由于托尼受到的教育低, 作者怀疑他能否成为一名好的学徒. 所以C选项是正确的.

第六部分：任务型阅读（10分）
Following one million middle-aged women in Britain for 10 years, a study finds that the widely held view that happiness enhances health and longevity is unfounded.
The results come from the so-called Million Women Study, which took on women aged 50 to 69 from 1996 to 2001, and tracked them with questionnaires and official records of death and hospital admissions. The questionnaires asked how often the women felt happy, in control, relaxed and stressed, and also instructed them to rate their health and list ailments like high blood pressure, diabetes, depression or anxiety.
When the answers were analyzed statistically, unhappiness and stress were not associated with an increased risk of death. It is not clear whether the findings apply to men.
Professor Peto said particularly important data came from 500, 000 women who reported that they were in good health, with no history of heart disease, cancer, or stroke. A minority of these healthy women said they were stressed or unhappy, he said, but over the next decade they were no more likely to die than were the women who were generally happy.
“This finding refutes(驳斥)the large effects of unhappiness and stress on deathrate that others have claimed, ”Dr. Peto said. Unhappiness itself may not affect health directly, but it can do harm in other ways, by driving people to suicide, alcoholism or other dangerous behaviors, he warned.
This type of study, in which people involved depends on their self-assessments, is not considered as reliable as a designed experiment where people involved are picked at random and assigned to a treatment or control group. But the huge number of people in this study gives it power. Still, some observers noted that measuring emotions is more nuanced(细微的)and complex than simply declaring happiness or unhappiness.
“I would have liked to see more discussion of how people translate these complicated feelings into a self-report of happiness, ”said Baruch Fischhoff, a psychologist at Carnegie Mellon University.
The results of earlier studies have been mixed, with some finding that unhappiness causes illness and others showing no link, Dr. Fischhoff said, “It looks to me like people have collected a lot of data without finding a clear signal, ”he said. However, an editorial accompanying the study in The Lancet noted that it had the largest population so far in happiness studies and praised its statistical methods.
Professor Peto said he doubted whether the new study would change many minds because beliefs about the risks of unhappiness are so rooted. “People are still going to believe that stress causes heart attacks,”he said.
【答案】
81. Necessarily 82. Subjects/Participants 83.Procedure/Steps 84. analyses 85. tend 86. account/make 87. confirmed/proved 88.Drawbacks/Shortcomings/Disadvantages/Weaknesses 89. assess/evaluate
90. hardly
【解析】
81. 归纳概括题。根据全文给出的论据论点可知，文章讲述的是高兴并“不一定”会带来健康。
82. 推理题从后面的One million women aged 50 to 69可知，是在讲研究的“被试者或参与者（对象）”。
83. 推理题。根据后面给出的Track the women with questionnaires. Keep official records of deaths and hospital admission. Make statistical analyse of the answers. 提示可知，这里陈述的是研究的“步骤或者说是程序”。
84. 词性转换题。根据statistical可知，后面要跟名词形式，故把原文When the answers were analyzed statistically里的analyze转换成名词形式。
85. 推理题。根据unhappiness and stress were not associated with an increased risk of death可知，不开心的人会更容易“引起”死亡缺少依据。
86. 推理题．根据Unhappiness itself may not affect health directly，but it can do harm in other ways，by driving people to suicide，alcoholism or other dangerous behaviors可知，不开心可能会“导致”一些危险行为。87. 推理题。根据It is not clear whether the findings apply to men. 可知，这个结论是否适用于男性还没有被“证实或确认”。
88. 归纳概括题。根据后面给出的It just depends on how people involved assess/evaluate themselves．Measuring emotion is more nuanced and complex．The results of earlier studies have been mixed 可知，这些都是该研究的“不足或缺陷”。
89. 原词再现题（词性转换题）。根据This type of study，in which people involved depends on their self-assessments可知，该研究仅仅取决于人们对自己的“评价或评估”。
90. 推理题。根据Professor Peto said he doubted whether the new study would change many minds because beliefs about the risks of unhappiness are so rooted. 可知，Professor Peto 认为，该研究“几乎不”能改变人们的观念，因为他们对不高兴有害健康的观点根深蒂固。

Grinding an iron rod into a needle
Li Bai was a great poet in the Tang Dynasty of China.
It is said that in his childhood, he was very fond of playing and afraid of difficulties, and made slow progress in his studies. One day, on his way home after school, he walked by a creek and saw an old woman grinding （磨碎）a very, very thick iron rod. Being curious, he went to the old woman and asked: "Old grandma, why are you grinding this iron rod?” The old woman replied, "To make a needle.” At this moment, Li Bai felt more curious and asked again, "How can you grind such a thick iron ro d into a needle?” "Yes, I can. I certainly can.” the old woman said. "If one works with constant effort, one can grind an iron rod into a needle.” Hearing what the old woman said, Li Bai was enlightened. Since then, Li Bai studied hard and made rapid progress. Eventually he became a famous poet.

考题是一篇记叙文，讲叙了李白的故事。李白是中国唐朝的一位伟大诗人，传说，他小时候很贪玩，怕
困难，读书进步很慢。
有一天，李白放学回家，路过一条小河边，看见一位老婆i磨一根很粗很粗的铁棒。他觉得很奇怪，就走到老婆婆跟前问道：“老婆婆，您磨这根铁棒干什么?”老婆婆说:“磨成针。”这时候，李白更觉得奇怪了，又问:“这么粗的铁棒，您怎么能磨成针呢?”“能，一定能!”老婆婆说，“只要功夫深，铁棒就能磨成针。”
李白听了老婆婆的话，心里忽然明白了。从此，李白刻苦读书，进步很快。后来，他终于成了一位有名
的诗人。
本次的书面表达属于半开放性作文，在写作时学生首先要确定人称，时态，文体。内容要点要全面，上
下段要使用连接词做到连贯。应当用尽可能少的形式表达尽可能多的语义内容，力求简洁精练。根据提
示内容，写出所列要点，要全面。我们在用词上应该仔细揣摩，准确清晰地表达我们的思想，剔除冗词
赘语，使文章言简意赅。
One possible version:
Legend has it that Li Bai, enlightened and motivated by an old woman who was grinding a thick rod into a needle, turned out a great poet with constant effort.
This story reminds me of the significance of perseverance, a quality that's what it takes to do anything well. It was perseverance that helped the old woman accomplish a seemingly impossible mission. Without it, we could hardly work miracles.
Actually behind every great achievement in anyone's life lies perseverance. Only those who take the courage to go forward and hold on straight to the end can make it, whatever difficulties they may come across. One case in point is Kobe Bryant. To become an outstanding basketball player he spent all his time practicing despite heavy injuries and great pressure. Finally, his endeavor and persistence paid off and he became a NBA legend.
In conclusion, persistence is important to our life if we are to succeed.
