own ideas of success to the extent that each of us is responsible for setting our own goals and determining whether we have met these goals satisfactorily.Because each of us possesses unique differences in genetic ability and favorableenvironments in which to express these abilities,it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly.For some people,simply being able to live their life with the least misery and suffering is considered a success.Think of the peace of mind of the poor shepherd who tends his sheep,enjoys his simple life with his family in the beauty of nature,and who is respected because he does a good job of achieving the goals expected of him and accepted by his family and his society.On the other hand,it seems that even though some people appear to be rich in material possessions,many of them seem to be miserable and conside r themselves unsuccessful when judged by their own standards of success.Because not all ventures can be successful,one should not set unrealistic goals for achieving success,but if one ha s selfcconfidence it would be unfortunate to set one’s goals at a too low level of achievement.A wise man once said to a young man who was experiencing frustration (挫败) with his own professional success,“You do not have to set your goal to reach the moon in order to have success in traveling.Sometimes one can be very successful merely by taking a walk in the park or riding the subway downtown.” The man added,“You have not really failed and spoiled your chances for success until you have been unsuccessful at something you really like,and to which you have given your best effort.”1.According to the first paragraph,what is implied as basics in achieving success?A.Ability and goals.B.Goals and determination.C.Ability and environments.D.Goals and environments.2.Some rich people consider themselves unsuccessful because________.A.their life is busy and miserableB.they haven’t reached their own standardsC.they set their goals at a too low levelD.they are not rich in material possessions3.From the last paragraph we can tell that________.A.success means achieving great goalsB.success comes from setting great goalsC.success means efforts and favorites pay offD.success has nothing to do with the distance of your travelB(2013·长沙二模) Handling a wad of cash may be as good at killing pain than ibuprofen (布洛芬) or aspirin,a new study suggests.Researchers at the University of Minnesota carried out a series of studies which showed those who counted money before taking part in an experiment where they were subjected to low levels of pain felt less discomfort than those who did not.It’s thought that fondling notes and coins helps ward off pain by boosting feelings ofselfworth and selfsufficiency.Previous studies have shown those with a greater sense of selfworth may be more likely to bear pain.Britain spends at least £500 million a year on overthecounter painkilling pills and the figure is increasing every year.But scientists remain puzzled by why some people appear to feel pain more easily than others.In the latest study,a group of students were asked to count out a wad of cash consisting of 80 onehundred dollar bills,or just 80 slips of blank paper.They had been told researchers w ere simply testing their dexterity (熟练) in handling the notes.Each volunteer was then asked to dip their hands into a bowl of very hot water,to see how painful they found it and how long they could last.The results,published in a recent edition of the journal Psychological Science,showed those who had handled money reported less pain and lasted longer.The results support other studies highlighting how the brain can be tuned to fight off pain without the use of pills.A University of Los Angeles team of scientists found just looking at a photograph of a loved one can also be a powerful form of pain relief.They recommended anyone visiting hospital for painful tests or examinations should bring a picture to help them cope.And patien ts who have had major surgery,such as a knee or hip replacement,can halve the amount of painkilling medicine they need simply by stroking a pet,according to tests at Loyola University in Chicago.4.Handling money can prevent pain because ________.A.we are confident in our usefulnessB.we can afford the expenses of the treatmentC.we can do everything with the moneyD.we can’t live without money5.The phrase “overthecounter painkilling pills” refer to pills________.A.that can be obtained outside the drug storeB.that can be bought without a prescriptionC.that are placed on the counter of the storeD.that are purchased with a written order from a doctor6.Which of the following may least kill pain?A.Counting out a wad of cashes.B.Looking at the picture of a loved one.C.Handling a group of blank paper.D.Walking a pet.7.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A.Money Makes Something Impossible PossibleB.Money Has a Magic Power in Treating PatientsC.Money Brings Comfort to Pain SuffersD.Money Kills Pains Better than Aspirin8.We can infer that the passage is________.A.a research report on the role of moneyB.a kind of medicine instructionsC.an introduction to a new medicineD.a description of natural reaction to a medicine答案:课时作业(十九)Ⅰ.单项填空1.解析:考查交际用语。

The study reveals that in cultures where emotional control is the standard, such as Japan, focus is placed on the eyes to interpret emotions. Whereas in cultures where emotion is openly expressed, such as the United States, the focus is on the mouth to interpret emotion.“These findings go against the popular theory that the facial expressions of basic emotions can be universally recognized,〞said University of Alberta researcher Dr Takahiko Masuda. “Aperson's culture plays a very strong role in determining how they will read emotions and needs to be considered when interpreting facial expressions.〞These cultural differences are even noticeable in computer emotions(情感符号), which are used to convey a writer's emotions over email and text message. The Japanese emotions for happiness and sadness vary in terms of how the eyes are drawn, while American emotions vary with the direction of the mouth. In the United States the emotions:)and:-)show a happy face,whereas the emotions:(or:-(show a sad face.However, Japanese tend to use the symbol(∧∧)to indicate a happy face, and(; _;)to indicate a sad face.“We think it is quite interesting and appropriate that a culture tends to mask its emotions. The Japanese would focus on a person's eyes when determining emotions,as eyes tend to be quite subtle(微妙的),〞said Masuda.“In the United States, where open emotion i s quite common, it makes sense to focus on the mouth, which is the most expressive feature on a person's face.〞31.The text mainly tells us that ________.A.cultural differences are expressed in emotionsB.culture is the key to interpreting facial emotionsC.different emotions are preferred in different culturesD.people from different cultures express emotions differently32.Which emotion is used by Americans to show a happy face?A.(; _; ) B.:-) C.:-( D.:(33.If a Japanese wants to detect whether a smile is true or false, he will probably ________.A.read the whole face B.focus on the mouthC.look into the eyes D.judge by the voice34.People used to believe that ________.A.some facial expressions of emotions were too complex to be recognizedB.people in the world interpreted basic emotions in different waysC.people could only recognize the facial expressions of basic emotionsD.people all over the world understood basic emotions in the same wayⅣ.完成句子阅读如下各小题,根据每句后的汉语提示,用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。

October 15th is Global Handwashing Day.Activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.Experts say people around the world wash their hands but very few use soap at socalled critical moments.These include after using the toilet,after cleaning a baby and before touching food.Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Public Private Partnership for handwashing with soap.The goal,they say,is to create a culture of handwashing with soap.The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing diseasecausing germs (细菌).They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap.Rub it into all areas,including under the fingernails.Then,wash well under running water.Finally,dry your hands with a clean cloth.The Partnership says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing.Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holdsmost of the germs.And it usually leaves a pleasant smell,which increases the chances that people will wash again.It also says that washing hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than any medicine.It could help reduce cases of diarrhea (痢疾),which is the second leading cause of child deaths,killing more than one and a half million children a year,by almost half.1.What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?A.To keep healthy by washing hands.B.To wash hands with soap.C.To take action to wash hands.D.To wash hands often.2.Which of the following is the right way to wash hands?a.Washing hands well under running water.b.Covering hands with soap.c.Drying hands.d.Rubbing hands with soap.e.Wetting hands.A.a-c-b-e-d B.e-d-a-b-cC.a-c-b-d-e D.e-b-d-a-c3.Which fact can’t explain why soap is important?A.It gives people a longer handwashing time.B.It helps to remove a lot of germs from hands.C.It attracts people to do more handwashing.D.It gets all people into the habit of washing hands.4.According to the last paragraph,diarrhea is a diseasethat________.A.kills half of the kids in the developing countries a yearB.causes the greatest number of child deathsC.can be prevented to some degree by washing hands with soapD.can’t be cured without washing handsUnit 4Body languageⅠ.单项填空1.【解析】选A。
课时作业19Body languageⅠ.阅读理解AI want to talk about a soldier. I saw him yesterday as my husband and I were enjoying a wonderful lunch in the cave-like dining room of an old hotel.It is hard to imagine being fortable in a room that probably seats a thousand, but the real magic of the place is its wonderful setting. Every corner is a wood and stone masterpiece, with high glass windows that look out to the huge cliffs of the valley.A man entered with his family and took a seat. He wasn't in uniform, but he walked with the dignity of a soldier, and a slight limp (瘸). My suspicion was confirmed when he removed his hat and placed it on the table where I could see it. Embroidered (绣) on the cap were the words:“Iwo Jima Survivor”.As they were waiting for lunch, the others talking happily, this gentleman was staring out of the window. He was content to be left out of the conversation and allowed to take in the wonderful and impressive view of the waterfall.I watched him, and imagined how much horror he had seen in the war. What losses did he suffer, and how many friends did he lose? What he had witnessed should have given him a good reason to lose faith in the world. Yet this tired soldier was smiling at the sky, at the sun and the roaring of the waterfall. Somehow, after everything, the world was still beautiful to him.I walked over to him and said, “Excuse me, sir. I'm sorry to interrupt, but I saw your hat, and I just wanted to say thank you for serving.”He looked up at me, surprised, and said proudly, “You're wele, and thank you, too.”I told him I would go home and tell my children about this experience that I'd met him.本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者和丈夫在一家看起来像洞穴似的饭店用餐时,见到了一位没穿制服但极具军人气质的瘸腿士兵。

confusing it with hugge—another word of the Middle English ug,meaning “to inspire with fear or disgust”.Nevertheless,I find myself drawn to the possibility that hug does,in fact,have some connection with ug.It seems to me that at the thought of a tight embrace (拥抱),fear and disgust do come to mind.So why is it that when I go over to your house for dinner,you wrap your arms around me,even though I saw you last Friday at the movies?One arm or two?Should there be space between us?Should I brush my cheek against yours?Maybe even kiss your cheek?I’m willing to believe that some people really love to hug.They rush to enfold not only family and friends but also friends of friends and near strangers.They delight in applying pressure and rocking from side to side.Yet most people are just going through the motions;they’re looking for a way to say hello or goodbye.Not wanting to seem rude,I open my arms,too,submitting to the ceremony of friendship. After one particularly confusing interaction,I looked for advice from experts.Emily Yoffe,an advice columnist,offered her sympathy:“I’m with you on this,but I’ve become a nonhugger who hugs.Recently after breakfast with a new friend,I went in to hug her goodbye,and I could see a kind of horror in her eyes,but it was too l ate to back off.” That’s me:The girl with the look of horror in her eyes. The Emily Post Institute,which specializes in manners,explains that when greeting someone,you should look him or her in the eyes and smile,speak clearly,add a “glad to see you” and then shake hands with a firm grip,pump two or three times,and then release.The institute suggests adding a hug “if it’s a relative or close friend”.Not any specific information on what a proper hug involves.There are several hug alternatives,among them:the handshake,the cheek kiss,the wave,the arm squeeze,and the nod.Handshakes seem formal,cheek kissesunAmerican.Arm squeezing would be a good solution if it were not for the danger of getting pulled into something more fullbodied.The nod,though,can be very effective when combined with a smile,especially when executed with confidence and with one hand already grasping the door handle.1.What do the first two paragraphs indicate about “hug”?A.The word causes common disfavor.B.The behavior appears disgusting.C.The action is somewhat confusing.D.The manner is unsuitable for friends.2.About the way of embrace,the experts________.A.have a standard conceptB.feel embarrassed and uneasyC.advise people to use other waysD.fail to give an explicit definition3.What’s the author’s attitude towards hug?A.Cautious. B.Hesitant.C.Puzzled. D.Opposed.4.What does the passage mainly discuss?A.Indepth research into hug.B.Specialized opinions on daily manners.C.Appropriateness of daily manners.D.Important reform of greeting manners.Ⅵ.书面表达假如你是李华,对2013年一月出现的严重雾霾记忆犹新,认为绿色生活方式对于改善空气质量十分有益。

A.Appropriately B.ConvenientlyC.Curiously D.Typically10.I used to feel nervous when I stood up in front of others, but now I feel quite ________ when giving a speech to the public.A.at random B.at lengthC.at ease D.at sightⅡ.阅读理解AFor the last couple of weeks, I had been stuck in front of my computer working on a project that was very important to me.My every waking hour was consumed by the project and although I imagined that I would feel happy after completing parts of the project, I was confused to find that instead, I was feeling rather depressed.I tried a range of methods to help cheer myself up.I had a relaxing bath, cooked a delicious meal to enjoy with my family and even watched a lighthearted movie, but to_no_avail.It was only when I turned to meditation(沉思) for a solution that the answer came to me: turn to nature!The very next day, I grabbed my camera and a bottle of water and set off to spend a few hours walking in a nature reserve, even though it was pouring with rain.Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again.To be honest, I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping along the path singing, “I'm singing in the rain”, a song I used to sing when I was a child.I think as adults we often try too hard to control our inner children and as a result we restrain(限制) our own spirits, which only leads to depression and stress.Interestingly, it has been shown that people who spend 40 minutes walking in a nature reserve have a drop in their blood pressure levels, but this does not happen when they spend a similar amount of time walking in a busy city centre.If you feel a little low in spirit and know that you have spent too much time indoors, relax completely, remove your shoes and let your inner child come out and play. 11.The author walked in a nature reserve in the rain in order to________.A.take photosB.find a solution to the projectC.hop along the pathD.cheer herself up12.The underlined part “to no avail” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”.A.unsuccessful B.unrelatedC.uninteresting D.unexpected13.In the author's opinion,________.A.a bath can make people relaxedB.depression is usually caused by hard workC.walking in a busy city centre harms people's healthD.adults should express their inner feelings freely14.The last paragraph mainly serves as a(n)________.A.explanation B.suggestionC.introduction D.reminderB“Remove from friends.”This is no ordinary button.One click and I have the power to erase a person from my life.In late fall, I had around 400 friends on Facebook.Today, I have 134.Click.Make that 133.When Facebook first entered my life in 2005, I panicked that my friend count was too low.If I wasn't properly connected, how would anyone see my clever quote(引语)? Who would wish me a happy birthday? I accepted and sent out friend requests without a second thought and soon accumulated 391 friends.There is an appeal to being able to communicate with someone or just “thumbs up”a photo rather than make real conversation.“It's comforting and it's easy,” said Larry Rosen, a psychology professor at California State University, who studies the way people communicate online.“There's a sense of belonging in it.It's a sense of community in a generation where community has sort of (有点儿)disappeared.”However, I don't talk to half of these people in the online community.There are some I would avoid if I met them on the street.Click.132.I decided to rid my account of any “friend” that … well, wasn't.Sound easy? You try it.Look at who you're dealing with: family, friends, classmates, crushes(爱恋的对象), acquaintances …With every click of the “Remove from friends” button, you risk burning a bridge, losing a contact and missing an opportunity.So every time I go to click the button, my heart hurts.However, I'm not the only one who has experienced a Faceboook friend refreshing.The New Oxford American Dictionary announces its “Word of the Year” each year, and last year, “unfriend” made the cut (入围) (though I'll still stick with “defriend”).When I started my mission(任务), a_few_friends_joined. Most were surprised by how easily they could cut hundreds of connections without thinking twice.“Oh my God, I defriended like 600 people today.I feel so good!” my friend Sarah messaged.Dana, a close friend from high school, and I battled it out to see who could get our counts lower.She wins at 123.To some, it's poor “netiquette(网络礼仪)” to defriend.But to me, it's the stage of life when we hold onto the people who count, the people who impact you. 15.According to the article, what h appens when you click the “Remove from friends” button?A.A message is sent out to your online friends.B.You accept someone as your online friend.C.You send out a friend request to people.D.The number of your online friends is reduced.16.The writer worried about her friend count in 2005 because________.A.no one would wish her a happy birthdayB.it was the first time she had made friends onlineC.she had only 391 online friends at that timeD.she was eager to make connections17.What is Larry Rosen's opinion?A.People living in the same area are closely connected in everyday life. B.Communication online helps people feel they are members of a group.C.It's easy for people to make and break new friendships online.D.Today's young people spend nearly all their time communicating online.18.Which of the following is the best description of the underlined part?A.I made new friends online while I removed some old ones.B.Some friends cut the number of their online friends just like I did.C.We competed to see who could remove the most online friends.D.When someone removed me from a friends' list, I removed him/her.Ⅲ.完成句子19.A person with a severe mental health problem is ____________________ to have no close friends than the average.(likely)有严重精神疾病的人找不到知心朋友的可能性是普通人的4倍。

(原创)Napoleon climbs up the ladder, takes a running start and leaps into the pool. He splashes down, and the crowd cheers.As Napoleon swims to the edge of the pool, he looks excited. It might sound a lot like a diving event at the Olympics, but this sport is for a different type of competitor — the furry, tailwagging type. It is called dog diving.Napoleon, a black Labrador retriever,_has been participating in the sport for two years. That is not the only thing that makes Napoleon special. The person who trains him and handles him at dogdiving events is Ashley, a 10yearold kid!Ashley became interested in the sport of dog diving while at a state fair near her home in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She saw the dog divers competing to leap the farthest into a pool, and thought Napoleon would be good at the sport because he loves the water. When her parents tried working with Napoleon he didn’t do well, so Ashley decided to try it herself. With Ashley as his trainer, Napoleon caught right on, leaping as far as 24 feet at a time!On June 30, Ashley and Napoleon participated in a competition in Denver, Colorado. Dogs showed off their skills in several furraising events, from jumping over hurdles to catching flying disks. As usual, Napoleon focused on the competition.To warm up, Ashley took Napoleon on a walk, had him practice fetching and stretched him out. “Napoleon was scared when he first arrived at the competition,”said Ashley. “But when he focused, he did a good job.” Leaping into the water tograb his favorite toy, Napoleon took sixth place out of nine.It was not enough to qualify for(有.....的资格) the upcoming “Dog Olympics,”officially known as the Purina Pro Plan Incredible Dog Challenge.

Unit 4 Body languageⅠ.阅读理解AGiving Mary Poppins's magic umbrella some seriouscompetition is the all hightech “Oombrella〞—not onlycan it predict the weather, it's also impossible to lose.The smart umbrella syncs(同步进展) with a smartphone app, sending users updates about weather conditions 30 minutes in advance, and reminders if they happen to leave the device behind. And here's the added bonus—it won't ever flip insideout.Designed by French company Wezzoo, the rainbowcolored umbrella comes in two versions—classic and modern. The classic is3.1ft long with a curved handle, while the modern version is 0.8ft long with a straight handle. The company describes the device as a “portable weather station〞, made of a reflective surface with built in sensor s that record realtime data such as light, humidity, pressure, and temperature. The umbrella collects and processes this data as well as information from a social media community before sending out alerts about when it's going to start raining.And if the user happens to accidentally forget it at home on a potentially rainy day, or leaves it in a restaurant, similar alerts will be sent out using GPS technology to make sure you don't lose it.“We wanted to make this umbrella unforgettable in terms of design, too,〞explains Alexandre, of Escabo design studio. “We developed an exclusive material. It makes you feel you are holding an aurora borealis(北极光) in your hands. It has effects that are amazing with the light and always changing. It really makes the umbrella special.〞The “capsule〞 that integrates all the technology, making the umbrella smart, is located in the handle.The umbrella is all set to hit global online and physical stores this fall. According to a company spokesperson, it will retail at 79($86), but the early bird price on Kickstarter is 59($64). For those who are rather attached to their current umbrellas, the company will also release an “Oombrella capsule〞 that can transform any umbrella into a smart device. Now, if only it could make us fly like Mary Poppins!语篇导读本文为说明文,介绍了一款高科技雨伞——“欧姆伞〞。

Unit 4 Body languageⅠ.阅读理解AIn between running one of the world's largest charitable agencies and acting as Microsoft's technology advisor, Bill Gates manages to find time to read books, both long and short. Now Gates —who has been labeled a “greedy”reader —has released a list of his favorite books. All of the books are standout reads, according to the billionaire, most of which are focused on business and economy.Here are Bill's top four picks (with parts of his full review of each book).Business Adventures, by John BrooksBrooks' collection was published in 1969 and remains one of Gates' favorites. He reread it again this year, labeling it the best business book he has ever read.“Shortly after we met, Warren Buffett lent me this collection of business articles from TheNewYorker from the 1950s and 1960s. I loved them as much as he did. Brooks' insights (洞察力) into business have aged beautifully, and they are as true today as ever.”Capital in the TwentyFirst Century, by Thomas PikettyPiketty's novel hit the shelves in August 2013 and sparked much discussion concerning income inequality throughout this year. Gates also got to sit down with Piketty himself after reading the nonfiction work to discuss the topic.“As I told him, although I have concerns about some of his secondary points and policy prescriptions, I agree with his most important conclusions: inequality is a growing problem and governments should play a role in reducing it.”How Asia Works, by Joe StudwellStudwell's work, which was published in May 2014, addresses how countries such as Japan, South Korea and China have continued to achieve high growth, and why other countries have failed to do the same.“The agriculture section of the book was particularly insightful. It provided ample food for thought for me as well as the whole Agriculture team at our foundation. And it left us thinking about whether parts of the Asian model can apply in Africa.”Making the Modern World: Materials and Dematerialization, by Vaclav SmilSmil's books are a constant favorite of the Microsoft's founder —one of his books makes Gates' list almost every year. MakingtheModernWorld came out late in 2013 and explores the global use of materials, from silicon to wood and plastic.“If anyone tries to tell you we're using fewer materials, send him this book. With his usual skepticism and his love of data, Smil shows how our ability to make things with fewer materials —say, soda cans that need less aluminum —makes them cheaper, which actually encourages more production.”1.The books mentioned in the text are mainly about ________.A.charity in the worldB.business and economyC.poverty in the worldD.Bill Gates' life experience2.Of the books, ________ is best praised by Bill Gates.A.HowAsiaWorksB.CapitalintheTwentyFirstCenturyC.BusinessAdventuresD.MakingtheModernWorld:MaterialsandDematerialization3.Gates once had a personal discussion with the author of________.A.CapitalintheTwentyFirstCenturyB.BusinessAdventuresC.HowAsiaWorksD.MakingtheModernWorld:MaterialsandDematerialization4.In HowAsiaWorks, the author analyses ________.A.why African agriculture cannot develop fastB.how they can apply Asian economic model in African countriesC.why Asia is slow in agricultural developmentD.how some Asian countries have rapidly grown in economyBThe Scottish composer Evelyn Glennie lost nearly all her hearing as a young girl, yet went on to a very successful career in music including winning Grammy awards. When somebody asks her,“How do you hear?”She responds, “How do you hear? Is it only with your ears?”For Glennie, and for us too, listening is not only hearing, but is understanding. We need to listen to what is said and unsaid, and also how it is said.It's important to hear what people say accurately. As Mark Twainsaid,“The difference between the right word and the almost right wordis the difference between lightning and the lightning bug (萤火虫).”Ifyou miss something or you're not sure you've heard accurately, ask the speakers. At this point you're not evaluating what they say, but just looking for accuracy and understanding. Here are some ways to get clear about what they say and don't say. Why are they saying this now, instead of sooner or later? Why are they emphasizing these points, instead of something else?Listen to how it is said. People send signals about what they mean with their voices and body language that sometimes differ from the words they say. While going through the next points, think about someone whose real meaning you might sometimes miss, and see if any of these signals might come up. First, voices. When others speak, notice changes in their volume, pace, and tone. Second, body language. Notice gestures, eye contact, and facial expressions. Do these sync what they are saying, or do they tell a different story? Third, emotions. What is the person true feeling? Now you might not know for sure, but be considerate, open to understanding, and ask thoughtful questions.5.What's the writer's purpose of mentioning Evelyn Glennie?A.To give an example of wise words.B.To introduce a worldfamous musician.C.To help explain the meaning of listening.D.To encourage us to fight against disability.6.What can we learn from what Mark Twain said?A.It is important to have a good knowledge of English words.B.People should know words can be used in many different ways.C.English is a very complicated language with a large vocabulary.D.The slight difference between words may result in misunderstanding.7.What does the underlined word “sync”in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Match.B.Prove.C.Describe. D.Analyze.8.Which is the best title for this passage?A.Speak While You Listen B.Listen Beyond WordsC.Read Between Lines D.Think as You TalkCStudents at Harvard this term have been doing something for the first time in the university's long history. They promise not to cheat, or more specifically, to sign up to an honor code in which they promise to stick to values of academic integrity (学术诚信). It means students at the wellknown US university have to promise not to cheat in exams.Brett Flehinger, a professor at Harvard, says students now write their own “personal response”to the honor code before starting term, repeat their promise when registering and then again before taking exams.Harvard's adoption of an honor code follows a widelyknown cheating event in 2012. On one exam paper, more than a hundred students were investigated and about 70 later faced punishment.An annual survey was conducted by the student newspaper, the HarvardCrimson. The survey, based on a sample of more than 70% of new students, also asked about cheating. It found 9% admitted to having cheated in an exam. There were others who had cheated in homework, academic work and other assignments.So will students be stopped from cheating by a promise?A study published in October by the US National Bureau of Economic Research found “strong evidence”of cheating from at least 10% of students. “It is not surprising that students cheat —they have enough reasons to do so, and the likelihood of getting caught is low,”concluded the study. “What is perhaps more surprising is that so little effort is devoted to catching cheating students.”Would an honor code make a difference?Sir Cary Cooper, a professor at Manchester Business School, says, “I don't think it actually stops the cheating that much. A university will have it because it gives specific moral guidance about what is incorrect behavior.”9.What's the main purpose of Harvard's honor code?A.To spread knowledge.B.To prevent students cheating in exams.C.To punish students cheating in exams.D.To introduce results of failing in the exams.10.What made Harvard's honor code appear?A.The survey by the HarvardCrimson.B.A lot of Harvard's students' suggestions.C.The influence from the other US universities.D.A number of Harvard's students' cheating in exams.11.What do we know about the new students of Harvard?A.Nobody admitted having cheated in exams.B.Some of them cheated in academic work.C.All of them cheated on homework.D.They didn't cheat in exams.12.What may be the best title for the text?A.Students at Harvard are learning to behave honestly in examsB.Harvard is working on the exam paper about cheatingC.Harvard forces students to follow the honor codeD.Students at Harvard are tired of cheating in examsDThere is a popular saying in the English language:“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.”Well, that is not true. Unkind words, namecalling or even the so called “the silent treatment”can hurt children as much as being physically hit, sometimes even more so.A recent study of middle school children showed that verbal (言语的) abuse by other children can harm development in the brain. The study was a project of researchers at Harvard Medical School in Massachusetts. Researcher Martin Teicher and his team studied young adults, aged 18 to 25. These young men and women had not ever been treated in a cruel or violent way by their parents. The researchers asked the young people to rate their childhood exposure to verbalabuse from both parents and other children. Then the researchers performed imaging tests on the brains of the subjects.The images showed that the people who reported suffering verbal abuse from peers in middle school had underdeveloped connections between the left and right side of the brain. The two sides of the brain are connected by a large bundle of connecting fibers called the corpus callosum. This was the area that was underdeveloped.The middle school years are a time when these brain connections are developing. So, unkind, hurtful comments from children or adults during this period have the greatest effect. The researchers tested the mental and emotional condition of all the young people in the study. The tests showed that this same group of people had higher levels of fear, depression, anger and drug abuse than others in the study.The researchers published their findings online on the AmericanJournalofPsychiatry's website.Parents cannot control what other people say to their children, but they can prepare their children.13.Why does the author use the popular saying at the beginning?A.To show the power of words.B.To introduce an opposite view.C.To prove the author's argument.D.To show ancient people's wisdom.14.What will be discussed in the next paragraph?A.Comments on the findings.B.Approaches to further studies.C.Suggestions to parents.D.Different opinions on the matter.15.What is the main idea of the passage?A.The way we speak matters.B.Verbal violence should be stopped.C.Unkind words hurt the brain.D.Words are worse than sticks and stones.Ⅱ.阅读七选五Color is in everything we touch, taste, smell and feel.It evokes (唤起) emotion without any thought.__1__ We are all familiar with it, but do you know the following facts?Silver will save youlife.When buying a new car and finding yourself facing various choices, you can't think clearly.Your best choice is to go with silver.Silvercolored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident.__2__ Another reason is the silver color's ability to have a look of cleanliness.__3__ Tough prisoners and crazy patients? It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control.So it surely has a useful place and a purpose, other than decorating a dress or Barbie's dream house.Yellow makes you hungry.Yellow and orange are not recommended for use in kitchens, as they have a positive influence on your appetite.__4__ I'm not normally one for conspiracy (阴谋) theories —but perhaps there's something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow's effects.Color is an imaginary friend.Technically, it's all in our heads: color does not exist at all.__5__ So, if you start a heated debate over color combinations with someone that you are certain has a low IQ or is just colorblind, remember it's a pointless argument and you should drop it instantly. You're both wrong.A.Pink comforts the nerves.B.Blue is the most common favorite color.C.They are most noticeable on the road and in low light.D.Yellowcolored walls seldom leave us wanting more food.E.It can be the focus of our careers, our lifestyle and the fun we have.F.Then where would our restaurant owners be without the clever tricks?G.Color tries to make sense of the huge amount of information from the outer world.【『答案』『解析』】Ⅰ.阅读理解1.『解析』选B细节理解题。

In a sense, I guess we all live that way, each and every day. But as I read this book, I get the feeling that only hospice patients really know this. Sometimes I realize it, like when I am faced with a choice to work more to earn more money or to go to spend the day with a loved one and earn no money. On the one hand, money, income, rent. On the other hand, love, connection, moments that make life feel like worth living for.Near the end of “On Living” Egan shares a story about a patient called Linda. Events from decades past were preserved in her mind like precious heirlooms(传家宝),but a new face could be forgotten in as little time as it took to leave the room and return again.Linda said that she spent her days trying to be caring. She shared: We shower so much love on babies and children. But as we grow up, it stops. No one showers love on grownups. Life gets harder, not easier, but we stop loving each other so much, just when we need love most. She then went on to say; “One day, when I was lying here, I realized how old God is. He is so old. He must need so much love. People are always demanding so much from him, but who is there to shower him with love? So I thought that was something I could do. That's what I do all day: I try to love God...I can lie here and love God and maybe it will help him.”This is the kind of story that I find impossibly inspiring and provides great impetus for me to make a change. Luckily, I read it on one of the former days and it made me realize that there is always a way to help. There is always something we can do. We don't have to be brave, ablebodied or even of particularly sound(健全的)mind to contribute to the good. We can be caring. We can love. We can be the very love that we need.1.According to the author, most people ________.A.give up love to earn income or moneyB.seldom go to care for hospice patientsC.are faced with a very difficult choice in lifeD.ignore the fact that life is short and precious2.Linda talked about God to indicate that ________.A.all people should love GodB.God teaches us to love all peopleC.the older one is, the more he/she needs loveD.only hospice patients know they should love God3.What does the underlined word “impetus” mean?A.Convenience. B.Motivation.C.Chances. D.Suggestions.4.What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?A.Kindness is always the strongest power.B.We can make a great difference to others.C.We should be brave enough to love others.D.Whatever kind of person we are, we can be caring.答案与解析本文属于哲理性文章。
