(606)668-6222COne day, when I was working as a psychologist in England , an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his ha nds shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me.“This boy has lost his family," he wrote. “He is understandabl y very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I’m very worried about him. Can you help?”I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I h elp him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the an swer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the be st thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. l suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesda y afternoon——in complete silence and without looking at me. It’s not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twi ce.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up bef ore I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoye d my company. But why did he never look at me?“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,”I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his sufferin g.” So me months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly."It’s your turn," he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in schoo l and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into uni versity. Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one — without any words—can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a should er to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.8.When he first met the author, David___________.A.felt a little excited.B.walked energetically.C.looked a little nervous.D.showed up with his teacher.9.As a psychologist, the author_________.A.was ready to listen to David.B.was skeptical about psychology.C.was able to describe David’s problem.D.was sure of handling David’s problem.10.David enjoyed being with the author because he_________ _.A.wanted to ask the author for advice.B.needed to share sorrow with the author.C.liked the children's drawings in the office.D.beat the author many times in the chess game.11.What can be inferred about David?A.He recovered after months of treatment.B.He liked biking before he lost his family.C.He went into university soon after starting to talk.D.He got friends in school before he met the author.DTwo studies show that fatness and alcohol(酒精) act together to increase the risk of illness in both men and women.In the first study, researchers examined the connection b etween body mass index (BMI) and liver cirrhosis(肝硬化) in 1.2 million middle-aged women. Each woman was followed for 6.2 years.Compared to the women of a healthy weight, the women who were overweight had an increased risk of liver cirrhosis. And through the study we can see that alcohol is dangerous f or people’s health.For example, among the women who were reported drinki ng about a third to half a drink a day,0.8 in 1,000 would go to t he hospital with liver cirrhosis or would die from liver cirrhosis over five years if they were of healthy weight compared with 1 in 1,000 women who were overweight. However, among the women who were reported drinking two and a half drinks a da y ,2.7 in 1,000 would go to the hospital with liver cirrhosis or w ould succumb to liver cirrhosis over five years if they were of healthy weight compared with 5 in 1,000 women who were ov erweight.In the second study, researchers surveyed the influence of BMI and drinking on the body in more than 9,000 men. The y were followed for 29 years.Both BMI and drinking were connected with liver disease and, more importantly, if they worked together, the influence was greater than that of BMI or drinking alone. For example, o verweight men who were reported drinking 15 or more units p er week had the greatest risk of liver disease.Both studies show that, from a public health view, methods to reduce both excessive (过度的) drinking and excessive body weight should reduce the cha nce of liver disease.12.What did the researchers mainly focus on in the first study ?A.The connection between fatness and drinking.B.The influence of BMI and drinking on the body.C.The connection between BMI and liver cirrhosis.D.The reason why women are easy to get overweight.13.The underlined phrase “succumb to” in Paragraph 4 most probably means .A.stand forB.die ofC.get overD.change into14.It can be inferred from the passage that .A.improving body mass index is very difficult.B.the two studies arrived at different conclusions.C.it took researchers a long time to do the two studies.D.drinking alcohol leads to fatness in both men and women.15.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A.The Influence of Excessive Drinking on Our Health.B.The Connection Between Fatness and Liver Cirrhosis.C.The Normal Amount of Drinking Each Day for Adults.D.The Increase in the Risk of Illness Caused by Fatness and Alcohol.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AFrom: terri @ wombat. Com. AuTo: (happylizijun) @ yahoo. com. cnSubject: My schoolHi, Li Zijun,Thanks very much for your email. I really enjoyed reading it. I think we have a lot in common. I wonder if our school life i s similar too.I go to a big high school in Sydney called Maylands High School. There are about 1000 students and 80 teachers. My c lass has 25 students in it, which is normal for a Year 11 class. In the junior school there are about 30 students in a class.In the senior high school we have lots of subjects to choos e from, like maths, physics, chemistry, biology, history, Germa n, law, geography, software design, graphic arts and media studies. (Different schools sometime have different optional sub jects.) English is a must for everyone and we have to do least three other subjects in Year 11 and 12. At the end of Year 12 we sit for a public exam called the High School Certificate.As well as school subjects, most of us do other activities a t school such as playing a sport, singing in the choir or playing in the school band. We can also belong to clubs, such as the drama club, the chess club and the debating society.We have a lot of homework to do in senior school to prepa re for our exam, so unless I have basketball practice, I usually go straight home and start studying. I arrive home about 4 p m, make myself a snack and work till 6 pm. Then I help the fa mily to make dinner and we all eat together. I’m usually back i n my room studying by 8 pm. I stop at about 10 o’clock and w atch TV or read a book for half an hour to relax. On Saturdays , I usually go out with my family or with friends and I sleep in ti ll late on Sunday morning. Then it’s back to the books on Sun day afternoon.How about you? What’s your school life like? Do you have a lot of homework? What do you do to relax when you’re not s tudying? I’m looking forward to finding out.Your Australian friend,Terrie21.How many subjects do the students have to do at least in Year 11 and 12?A.11B.3.C.4.D.6.22.What does the underlined phrase “sit for” in Para3 mean?A.pass.B.take.C.go for.D.hold.23.On Sunday afternoon, Terri usually______.A.read booksB.play in the school bandC.play basketballD.helps her family to prepare dinnerBShakespeare’s Birthplace and Exhibition of Shakespeare’s W orldWelcome to the world-famous house where William Shakespeare was born in l564 a nd where he grew up. The property (房产) remained in the ownership of Shakespeare’s family until 1 806. The House has welcomed visitors travelling from all over the world, for over 250 years.◆ Enter through the Visitors’ Centre and see the highly-praised exhibition Shakespeare’s World, a lively and full intro duction to the life and work of Shakespeare.◆ Stand in the rooms where Shakespeare grew up.◆ Discover examples of furniture and needlework from Shake speare’s period.◆ Enjoy the traditional English garden, planted with trees and flowers mentioned in the poet’s works.★ The Birthplace is within easy walking distance of all the car parks shown on the map;nearest is Windsor Street (3 minutes ’ walk).★ The House may present difficulties but the Visitors’ Centre, its exhibition, and the garden are accessible (可进入的) to wheelchair users★ The Shakespeare Coffee House (opposite the Birthplace).24.

A wheelchair user may need help to enter________.A.the HouseB.the gardenC.the Visitors’ CentreD.the exhibition hallCThe morning had been a disaster.My tooth was aching, an d I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt:“T he trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could h old out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain wa s really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally,at about l unchtime, I got lucky.“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said,“the dentis t will fit you in.”I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist.What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn ’t he as busy as the others?In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw not hing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.When I told her my fears,she laughed and said,“Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.“Come on,he is coming.Just lie down and relax.And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.“The artwork?” I was puzzled.The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautif ul picture, right where I could enjoy it:on the ceiling. How cons iderate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understan d what my friend meant by her words.What a relief!27.Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling t hat morning?A.Cheerful.B.Nervous.C.Satisfied.D.Upset.28.What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?A.The dentist’s agreeing to treat her at very short notice.B.The dentist’s being as busy as the other dentists.C.The surroundings of the dentist’s office.D.The laughing assistant of the dentist.29.Why did the author suddenly smile?A.Because the dentist came at last.B.Because she saw a picture on the ceiling.C.Because she could relax in the chair.D.Because the assistant kept comforting her.30.What did the author learn from her experience most proba bly?A.Strike while the iron is hot.B.Have a good word for one's friend.C.Put oneself in other's shoes.D.A friend in need is a friend indeed.DChildren start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab eq uipment. You only have to share your children’s curiosity(好奇). Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “te xtbook questions” about schooling, salary(薪水) and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said, “Now that we’re finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?”After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢) eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachach e. Why?”This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours .Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 ye ars have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three secon ds or more, children give more logical(符合逻辑的), complete and creative answers.Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Ve ry good”. These words work well when it comes to encouragin g good behavior(行为). But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying “That’s interesting” or “I’d never thought of it that way before”, or co ming up with more questions or ideas.Never push a child to “Think”. It doesn’t make sense, children are always thinking, without your telling them to. What’s more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target(目标) for your disagreement.Lastly, show; don’t tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any le sson children can learn from a book or a television program. L et children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜), and they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water vaporates(蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water lev el drop.31.According to the passage, children are natural scientists, a nd to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is _______.A.let them see the world aroundB.share the children’s curiosityC.explain difficult phrases about scienceD.supply the children with lab equipment?32.In the last sentence of the first paragraph, the word “lists” c ould best be replaced by ______.A.any questionsB.any problemsC.questions from textbooksD.any number of questions33. According to the passage, children can answer questions i n a more logical,complete and creative way if adults ________.A.ask them to answer quicklyB.wait for one or two seconds after a questionC.tell them to answer the next dayD.wait at least for three seconds after a question34. In which of the following paragraph(s) does the author tell us what to say toencourage children in a science discussion?A.The second and third.B.The fourth and fifth.C.The fifth and sixth.D.The seventh.35.The author mentions all of the following techniques for adu lts to share with their children’s curiosity except that adults sh ould ________.A.tell their children stories instead of reciting factsB.offer their children chances to see things for themselvesC.be patient enough when their children answer questionsD.encourage their children to ask questions of their own第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AA. Book TheaterB. BookmobileC. Computer TutorD. Reader Desk2. If you get the job of “Bookmobile”, you are expected to _________.A. work with young childrenB. check materials for guestsC. lift heavy boxesD. repair computers3. The purpose of the advertisement is to _________ .A. attract students to librariesB. offer job opportunitiesC. raise money for librariesD. introduce new booksBIt's 3 o'clock and you've been hard at work. As you sit at your desk, a strong desire for chocolate overcomes you. You try to busy yourself to make it go away. But it doesn't. Here is another situation. Perhaps you are not feeling well. The only thing you want to eat is a big bowl of chicken soup, like your mom used to make when you were sick as a child. Food cravings are a strong desire for a specific type of food. And they are normal.Scientists at the website How Stuff Works compare hunger and cravings this way. Hunger is a fairly simple connection betwe en the stomach and the brain. They even call it simply “stomach hunger.” When our stomachs burn up all of the food we have eaten, a hormone (荷尔蒙) sends a message to one part of the brain for more food, which regulates our most basic body functions such as thirst, hunger and sleep. The brain then produces a chemical to start the appetite and you eat. Hunger is a function of survival.A craving is more complex. It activates (使活跃) brain areas related to emotion, memory and reward. These are the same areas of the brain activated during drug-craving studies. Because of this, some scientists call food cravings “mind hunger.” People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar. Foods that are high in fat or high in sugar produce chemicals in the brain. These chemicals give us feelings of pleasure.In a 2007 study, researchers at Cambridge University found that “dieting or restricted eating generally increases the possibility of food craving.” So, the more you deny yourself a food that you want, the more you may crave it. However, fasting is a bit different. They found that eating no food at all for a short period of time lessened food cravings.So, the next time you crave something very special, know that your brain may be more to blame than your stomach.4. The author describes two situations in the first paragraph to _______.A. remind readers of their own special food.B. deepen the understanding of hunger.C. report the discovery of craving study.D. introduce the topic of the whole passage.5. What do we learn about food craving?A. It shows food is linked to feelings.B. It ensures a person survives hunger.C. It means the stomach functions well.D. It proves the brain decides your appetite.6. What's the likely result of dieting?A. The decrease of chemicals.B. The increase of food desire.C. The refusal of fat and sugar.D. The disappearance of appetite.7. In which column of a newspaper can you see this passage?A. EducationB. EntertainmentC. ScienceD. EconomyCIt is widely acknowledged that it is by no means an easy task to bring up a child well. And our ancestors already understood it well. As an old proverb says, “It takes an entire village to raise a child.” That is being quoted more and more often these days. And I’m pleased about that. Parents need to be involved in their children’s education in many ways. Helping children with homework and studying, going on a field trip, teaching a craft or coaching a child’s sports team are all great ways to be involved with your child’s education. And don’t forget to communicate with teachers—they need and respect your input. Studies show that children learn more and schools function better when parents and schools work together.Communities can help children create and achieve new goals. There are other ways such as helping with homework. reading to a child, coaching a children’s team, providing emotional support, helping solve problems and building self-esteem（自尊）. Kids need role models and advisers can be role models by sharing their experiences and wisdom.Businesses can also help shape our children’s future—invite a class from your local school to visit your workplace. You may be providing a glimpse that opens a new world of possibilities. Show students what goes on during a typical day. Give a mini course for students: how products are made; how machinery works. You may have a developing electrician, a teacher, a nurse, or even a newspaper reporter on your hands.It really does take an entire village to raise a child. So share the responsibility－and the joy—of bringing a child to his or her full potential.8. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Raising a child well needs various efforts.B. Communities play an important part in raising a child.C. Our ancestors raised a child by using the whole village’s food.D. People in the same village should take care of a child together.9. Which of the following has the author stressed in the text?A. Family education.B. School education.C. Life-long education.D. Early childhood education.10. The author thinks visiting the workplace can have an effect on children’s .A. talentB. healthC. gradesD. occupations11. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?A. To show his research on education.B. To call for more attention to children.C. To make examples of education reform.D. To introduce some ways to teach children well.DSitting too much is linked to changes in a section of the brain that is important for memory, according to a recent study by UCLA researchers of middle-aged and older adults.Studies show that too much sitting, like smoking, increases the risk of heart disease, diabetes and premature death. Researchers at UCLA want to see how sedentary behavior (sitting for long periods of time) influences the health of the brain, especially regions of the brain that are important to memory formation.UCLA researchers gathered 35 people aged 45 to 75 and asked about their physical activity levels and the average number of hours per day they spent sitting over the previous work. Each person had a high-resolution MRI (热分辨磁共振成像)scan, which provides a detailed look at the medial temporal lobe, or MTL, a brain region involved in the formation of new memories.The researchers found that sedentary behavior is an important predictor of thinning of the MTL and that physical activity, even at high levels, is not enough to compensate the harmful effects of sitting for long periods.“This study does not prove that too much sitting causes thinner brain structures, but instead that more hours spent sitting are associated with thinner regions,” resea rchers said. In addition, the researchers focused on the hours spent sitting, but did not ask participants if they took breaks during this time.The researchers next hope to follow a group of people for a longer duration to determine if sittingcauses the thinning and what role gender (性別), race, and weight might play in brain health related to sitting.“MTL thinning can be an indication of cognitive (认知的) decline in middle-aged and older adults. Reducing sedentary behavior may be a possible target for measures designed to improve brain health in people at risk for Alzheimer(阿尔茨海默) disease,” researchers said.12. What is the study done by UCLA mainly intended to find out?A. What harm sitting too much causes.B. Why sitting too much is like smoking.C. How too much sitting affects brain health.D. Whether too much sitting causes early death13. Participants were scanned by a high-resolution MRI to .A. evaluate their memory lossB. examine their MTL conditionsC. record their physical activity levelsD. record the length of time for their sitting14. What do UCLA researchers think of their study?A. It is a great success.B. It is of little practical value.C. It must target the young.D. It still needs to be improved.15. What can be the best title for the text?A. Long Sitting Is Bad for Your BrainB. How to Improve Brain HealthC. Sitting Causes Many Health ProblemsD. An Easy Way to Prevent Memory Loss第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

AVinegar（醋）is great. It makes salad, fries and dumplings taste better, and you can even clean your windows with it. And now, according to scientists，it may even help the planet’s population survive climate chang e. Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Sustainable Reso urce Science (CSRS) in proved that. They found growing pla nts in vinegar makes them more resistant to droughts. This co uld mean that in the future，worries about climate change affecting the world’s supply of f ood will be much lower.The discovery was made after the researchers studied the Ar abidopsis, a plant known for its ability to survive in dry weathe r. It was found that when the plant was placed in drought-like conditions, it produced a chemical called acetate（醋酸盐）--- the main component of vinegar.After discovering this, the scientists experimented further by a dding acetate to the soil of other plants before they stopped gi ving them water completely. After leaving the plants for 14 da ys, they found that the ones treated with acetate had survived , while the untreated plants had dried up and died.It’s hoped that this simple method of survival could soon be u sed to help farmers in dry countries keep their crops alive. “In the experiment, we targeted the basic foods of the world—rice, wheat and maize... and proved successful” Jong Myong Kim, co-author of the study, told Popular Science magazine. Kim has already been in touch with people around the world who are interested in trying this simple and cost-effective method out for themselves from farmers to companie s and amateur gardeners. “Now we are trying to cooperate wit h them to make a method to apply this system, and make the process as simple as possible,” he said. Hopefully this meansthe end of hunger caused by bad weather in the future.21. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Vinegar may help creatures survive bad weather.B. Vinegar is found in plants by Japanese scientists.C. Vinegar is very useful for cooking.D. Vinegar is mainly used by people to clean houses.22. Scientists in find from their studies that ________.A. the acetate can be used by farmers to replace the soil.B. the plants treated with acetate could survive dry conditions.C. soil condition could be changed by pouring vinegar continu ally.D. the Arabidopsis could survive in dry weather because of the shape.23. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. How to decrease the cost is the main issue.B. Keeping plants alive means a lot for scientists.C. The method is promising especially in agriculture.D. It’s too difficult for farmers to accept the method.24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Plants Need WaterB. Vinegar and FoodC. Japanese Scientists Find a Way to SurviveD. Vine gar Could End HungerBAs more and more schools rush to put digital devices in the h ands of every student, many parents are becoming increasing ly worried about the quality of their children’s education. The p romise of increased student academic achievement through t he use of technology hasn’t produced any significant results i n the past 20 years.Researchers at the of conducted a study in 2014 to determin e if the social skills of elementary students were blocked by sc reen time. Two groups of sixth grade students were compared . One group was sent to an outdoor camp for one week with n o screen time, while the control group live life as normal. After one week, the students at camp had made significant improv ements over their peers（同龄人）. The good news is that when we limit access to screen ti me and give children the opportunity to interact face to face, t hey quickly become better at reading the emotional state of ot hers. The bad news is that we have a generation of children t hat struggle with this basic emotional intelligence skill.Too much screen time has been linked to childhood obesity, s leep disorders, behavior problems, and academic challenges.But is there a difference between schoolwork and entertainme nt media?When students are using technology for academic work they are more likely to be communicating with peers, working coop eratively, and developing other important skills. However, all t hese are impossible when students watch entertainment medi a. They just sit and watch!Parents have the right to focus on their children’s screen time at school, but they should begin with discussing the use of dig ital media at home. Some parents are continuously engaged i n their own devices, responding to every ring of their phones, receiving and sending messages. How can they expect their c hildren to do better?25．What was the schools’ original intention of using digital d evices?A. To make sure students get technological education.B. To help students develop socially.C. To make school life more entertaining and colorful.D. To improve students academically.26．What aspect of children worries the writer a lot?A. Lacking guidance on proper screen time.B. Lacking chances to communicate with others.C. Lacking interest in improving their study.D. Lacking skills in reading others’ emotional state. 27．What attitude does the writer have to the use of digital de vices in schoolwork?A. Positive.B. Worried.C. Negative.D. Uncertain.28．From the passage, we can learn that ________.A. parents shouldn’t oppose schools in their educational appr oachesB. some parents may set a bad example to their children in us ing digital mediaC. the screen watching time shouldn’t be longer than 2 hours f or studentsD. it’s wrong for schools to focus on technological education COne day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was t o walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for t he summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem — inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Children’s Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at rand om. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only a nimal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sha rer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone w ho had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgo t my beagle.There on the book’s cover was a beagle which looked identic al to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on th e cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the b ook, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I re ad very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued t he final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog an d I were, in my mind, running together.My mother’s call returned me to the real world. I suddenly real ized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading th at book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Bo oks could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read the m.I never told my mother about my “miraculous” experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years la ter, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD degree in literature, and authored his ow n books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words h as held.29．The book caught the author’s eye because_____.A. it contained pretty pictures of animalsB. it reminded him of his own dogC. he found its title easy to understandD. he liked children’s stories very much30．Why could the author manage to read the book through?A. He was forced by his mother to read it.B. He identified with the story in the book.C. The book told the story of his pet dog.D. The happy ending of the story attracted him.31．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author has become a successful writer.B. The author’s mother read the same book.C. The author’s mother rewarded him with a PhD degree.D. The author has had happy summers ever since.DMany Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technol ogy that will revolutionize(彻底变革) travel in cities and along state highways. But recent experi ments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the po tential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans u nderserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long a s lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for inventi on.A retirement community in , , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech compa ny called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limi ted to a two-mile road,but residents are already having the benefits of these autono mous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activiti es they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because th ey could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these re sidents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is eas y to understand why is moving to simplify laws for the industr y.In , forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden ben efits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physica l disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has stro ngly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, indep endent lives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future ca nnot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forc ed to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places l ike California and , and pass rules and laws to unlock these hi dden benefits of driverless cars.32．What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?A. uncertainB. doubtfulC. indifferentD. optimistic33．What is the modified Ford Fusion?A. The collection of social activities.B. The name of a retirement community.C. A kind of autonomous vehicle.D. A two-mile road for self-driving cars.34．Examples are given in the third and forth paragraphs to p rove______.A. what are preventing the development of the technologyB. why driverless cars are restricted in many states inC. how driverless technology benefits the aged and disabledD. when driverless cars can enter people’s life eventually 35．What does the author attempt to inform us in the last par agraph?A. The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely reco gnized.B. The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.C. The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.D. Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technol ogy.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AThere is no doubt that many parents want to mold (塑造)their child to be better, faster, smarter and more skilled. Ev en though human parents can’t do that, a robot that builds its own children can. Scientists at the University of Cambridge in England have created a mother robot that not only creates its own children, but tests out their performance.The mother robot analyzes(分析)the performance of each of the “children” it creates, and pa sses down good characters to the next generationFor example, as the mother creates them and puts them to w ork, she measures how they’re behaving, and she uses data f rom this behavior to create the next generation of robots.The mother robot can actually build hundreds of child robots a nd see the performance of these child robots. And if their perf ormance is good, keep their design for the next generation. A nd if bad, just let it go.“We program the robots based on some functions that define(规定)the reward the robots are going to get, depending on the c onstruction that they make. They cannot change their own re ward. For the child robot, the longer the distance the robot wal ks, the better the reward it receives,” said Fumiya Iida, the lea d researcher.After several generations, the “children” were running twice as fast.“The mother robot produced 500 robots to see which one is g ood and which one is bad,” said Iida.The researchers believe that the machines can be used in a c ar factory, for example, where robot cameras examine each ear in production line, find out any mistakes, and then design a better car.1．What is special about the mother robot?A. It can analyze dataB. It can create child robotsC. It’s smarter than human mothersD. It can build and improve its own children.2．How does the mother robot mold her own children to be b etter?A. It teachers them how to behave better.B. It reprograms the bad ones after analyzing their performan ceC. It copies hundreds of child robots and then chooses the be st ones.D. It keeps the good characters for the next generation to cre ate a better robot.3．What is the key point in influencing the child robot to recei ve a reward?A. SizeB. Distance.C. BehaviorD. Speed.BTaking a shower is relaxing. You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you. But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind?A research by Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist from Yale University in the US interviewed over 3,000 people around the world. It turned out that nearly two-thirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new idea s in the shower and were more likely to have them in the sho wer than at work.So why does a simple shower have such magic power? Scien ce can explain it.Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine, a hormon e (荷尔蒙) closely related to our creativity. “People vary in terms of th eir level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine”, ex plained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist. “Ta king a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring ‘Aha!' moment to us.”Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a bre ak from what you feel you have been stuck with. Especially w hen you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping i nto the shower can keep you from the outside world so that y ou can focus on your inner feelings and memories. In this way, according to American psychologist Shelley H. Carson, auth or ofYour Creative Brain, “a showering hour may turn into an ‘i ncubation (孵化) period’ for your ideas.”Compared with sitting in front of a computer, taking a shower i s something we do less frequently in our daily life. When sho wering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity. “New and unexpected experience s can lead to positive changes in thinking,” explained Kaufma n. “Getting off the couch and jumping in the shower may creat e a distance and force you to think from a new point of view.”Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, but it needn't just be the bathroom where you get your inspira tion. For instance, Gertrude Stein, a female American writer a nd poet, got new ideas by driving around a farm and stopping at different cows until she found the one that most inspired he r. So try to create your own way to free your mind, whether it's a walk near the ocean, a country drive or reading a book at h ome.4．According to the article, what changes can showering cau se?A. Bringing the terrible moment to us.B. Increasing the level of dopamine.C. Leading to boredom or tiredness.D. Setting the creative part of the brain free.5．If one has focused on something all day, showering can h elp _______.A. turn one’s attention inwardsB. draw one’s attention to the outside worldC. one make an important breakthroughD. many chemical changes to take place6．It can be inferred from the article that _______.A. changes in the frequency of an action can create a new per spectiveB. it is a good idea to talk with others about their sources of in spirationC. our lives might feel longer and fuller if we frequently try ne w thingsD. it is helpful to try something different rather than stay focus ed on a difficult task7．The example of Gertrude Stein in the last paragraph is us ed to _______.A. encourage readers to find their own ways of getting inspirat ionB. point out to readers that it's hard to find inspirationC. explain how to link inspiration with readers’ daily livesD. show that creativity often comes from strange placesCBreakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is also the most neglected（忽视）.Common reason for not eating breakfast include having no time, not feeling hungry, traditional dislike and dieting. Breakfast simply means “break the fast”. Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state. In the mornin g your body needs energy for the day’s work ahead.A good breakfast should provide 1/3 of your total calorie（卡路里）needs for the day. On average,we eat 400 less calories for br eakfast than for dinner. If breakfast doesn’t attract you in the morning, try eating a lighter dinner earlier in the evening or sa ve half of your dinner for breakfast in the morning.Some people fear that eating breakfast will make them hungri er during the day and they will eat more.
