I decided then and there to make a 34 of fifty things I was happy with．Later,I decided to 35 more things to the list．That night there was a phone call for 36 from a lady who was a director at a larger 37 ．She asked me if I would 38 a one-day lecture on stress (压力) management to 200 medical workers．I said yes.My 39 there went very well, and before long I got a well-paid job．To this day I know that it was because I changed my way of 40 that I completely changed my life.21．A．As B．Though C．If D．When22．A．Successful B．extra C．satisfying D．convenient23．A．driving B．repairing C．Taking D．designing24．A．working B．travelling C．Discussing D．living25．A．prepared for B．attended C．asked for D．held26．A．Lose B．like C．Find D．get27．A．Hard B．busy C．serious D．short28．A．wave at B．drop off C．call on D．look for29．A．ordering B．Promising C．saying D．showing30．A．in case B．or else C．as if D．now that31．A．Hurt B．hit C．caught D．moved32．A．feelings B．Attention C．strength D．interests33．A．opinions B．Education C．experiences D．life34．A．list B．book C．check D．copy35．A．Connect B．turn C．keep D．add36．A．her B．a passenger C．me D．my friend37．A．Hospital B．factory C．restaurant D．hotel38．A．listen to B．review C．give D．talk about39．A．plan B．choice C．day D．tour40．A．operation B．Speaking C．employment D．thinking第二部分阅读理解(满分45分)(A)Cold weather can hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people．Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are．Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors．This can put their pets in danger of serious illness．There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad．If you have to take them out, stay outside with them．When you're cold enough to go inside, they probably are too．I you must leave themoutside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter．They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere．Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality．Keep an eye on your pet's water．Sometimes owners don't realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can't get anything to drink．Animals that don't have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.41．What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1?A．They are often forgotten by their owners.B．They are used to living outdoors.C．They build their won shelter.D．They like to stay in warm places.42．Why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are out in cold weather?A．To know when to bring them inside.B．To keep them from eating bad food.C．To help them find shelters.D．To keep them company.43．If pets are left on their own outdoors in cold weather, they may ___.A．run short of clean water B．dig deep holes for funC．dirty the snow nearby D．get lost in the wild 44．What is the purpose of this text?A．To solve a problem. B．To give practical advice.C．To tell an interesting story. D．To present a research result.(B)You may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it．You do not need to be strong．But you need to be quick．And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead o r behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat．The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.Let's start with the wind blowing from the behind．This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction．Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat．It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat．Then it will catch the wind best.If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat．In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat．It should be at a 45° angle to the boat．It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn't flap (摆动)．It shouldn't look like on a flagpole．If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.Sailing into the wind is not possible．If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop．You may want to go in that direction．It is possible, but you can't go in a straight line．You must go first in one direction and then in another．This is called tacking．When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.45．What should you consider first while sailing?A．Sailors' strength. B．Wave levels.C．Wind directions. D．Size of sails.46．What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?A．The boat. B．The wind. C．The sail. D．The angle.47．What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?A．Move in a straight line. B．Allow the sail to flap.C．Lower the sail. D．Tack the boat.48．Where can you probably find the text?A．In a popular magazine. B．In a tourist guidebook.C．In a physics textbook. D．In an official report.(C)Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships．For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure．Yet it also has other uses．A woman's smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child．A smile may show love or politeness．It can also hide true feelings．It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures．For example, many people in Russia smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper．Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities)．Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don't smile enough．In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings．Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should n ot attempt to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture．The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions．Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted．For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do．When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States．People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others．The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different．If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.49．What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A．Love. B．Politeness. C．Joy. D．Thankfulness.50．The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ___ .A．show friendliness to strangers B．be used to hide true feelingsC．be used in the wrong places D．show personal habits51．What should we do before attempting to “read” people?A．Learn about their relations with others.B．Understand their cultural backgrounds.C．Find out about their past experience.D．Figure out what they will do next.52．What would be the best title for the test?A．Cultural Differences B．Smiles and RelationshipC．Facial Expressiveness D．Habits and Emotions (D)ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia – One of the world's most famous fossils (化石) – the 3.2 million-year-old Lucy skeleton (骨骼) unearthed in Ethiopia in 1974 – will go on an exhibition tour abroad for the first time in the United States, officials said Tuesday.Even the Ethiopian public has only seen Lucy twice．The Lucy on exhibition at the Ethiopian National Museum in the capital, Addis Ababa, is a replica while the real remains are usually locked in a secret storeroom．A team from the Museum of National Science in Houston, Texas, spent four years discussing with the Ethiopians for the U.S．tour, which will start in Houston next September.“Ethiopia's rich culture of both the past and today, is one of the best kept secrets in the world,” said Joel Bartsch, director of the Houston museum.The six-year tour will also go to Washington, New York, Denver and Chicago．Officials said six other U.S．cities may be on the tour．But they said plans had not been worked out.Travelling with Lucy will be 190 other fossils.Lucy, her name taken from a Beatles song that played in a camp the night of her discovery, is part ofthe skeleton of what was once a 312 -foot-tall ape-man (猿人).53．The author writes this text mainly to ___ .A．introduce a few U.S．museumsB．describe some research workC．discuss the value of an ape-manD．report a coming event54．What does the words “a replica” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．A painting of the skeleton. B．A photograph of LucyC．A copy of the skeleton. D．A written record of Lucy.55．How many cities has Lucy's U.S．tour plan already included?A．Four. B．Five. C．Six. D．Eleven.56．What was the skeleton named after?A．An ape-man. B．A song. C．A singer. D．A camp.(E)Make Up Your Mind to SucceedKind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure．The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone's winter.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before．As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years．Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it．Here's how they work:A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic –you're a born artist, point guard, or numbers person．The fixed mind-set believes it's sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame．When things get difficult, it's quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible．Because the ego (自尊) isn't on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame．When faced with a difficulty, it's quick to rethink, change and try again．In fact, it enjoys this experience.We are all born with growth mind-sets．(Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise．Dweck's book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth．But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.57．What does the author think about the present generation?A．They don't do well at school. B．They are often misunderstood.C．They are eager to win in sports. D．They are given too much praise.58．A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .A．doesn't want to work hardB．cares a lot about personal safetyC．cannot share his ideas with othersD．can succeed with the help of teachers59．What does the growth mind-set believe?A．Admitting failure is shameful.B．Talent comes with one's birth.C．Scores should be highly valued.D．Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.60．What should parents do for their children based on Dweck's study?A．Encourage them to learn from failures.B．Prevent them from making mistakes.C．Guide them in doing little things.D．Help them grow with praise.第二节根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar，it is also delicious．Most people，and many animals，like eating it．However，the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees 'nest（巢）and take the honey from it．Often，these nests are high up in trees，and it is difficult to find them．In parts of Africa，though，people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper一a little bird called a honey guide．The honey guide does not actually like honey，but it does like the wax （蜂蜡）in the beehives （蜂房）．The little bird cannot reach this wax，which is deep inside the bees' nest．So，when it finds a suitable nest，it looks for someone to help it．The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people．Once it has their attention，it flies through the forest，waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest．When they finallyarrive at the nest，the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches．Some of the honey，and the wax，always falls to the ground，and this is when the honey guide takes its share．Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax，but it is very determined in its efforts to get it．The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away．They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives，and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit．60．Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest？A．It's small in size．B．It's hidden in trees．C．It's covered with wax．D．It's hard to recognize．61．What do the words"the follower"in Paragraph 2 refer to？A．A bee．B．A bird．C．A honey seeker．D．A beekeeper．62．The honey guide is special in the way．A．it gets its foodB．it goes to churchC．it sings in the forestD．it reaches into bees' nests63．What can be the best title for the text？A．Wild BeesB．Wax and HoneyC．Beekeeping in AfricaD．Honey﹣Lover's Helper．64．（6分）About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to afilm﹣studio（影棚）to take part in a crowd﹣scene．Although our"act"would last only for a short time，we could see quite a number of interesting things．We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene，setting up trees at the edge of a winding path．Very soon，bright lights were turned on and the big movie﹣camera was wheeled into position．The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby．Since it was hot in the studio，it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path．A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him，and soon the trees were covered in"snow"．Two more fans were turned on，and a"strong wind"blew through the trees．The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold．The next scene was a complete contrast （对比）．The way it was filmed was quite unusual．Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen （幕）．An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water's edge on an island．By a simple trick like this，palm trees，sandy beaches，and blue，clear skies had been brought into the studio!Since it was our turn next，we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us．For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film"stars"!64．Who is the author？A．A cameraman．B．A film director．C．A crowd﹣scene actor．D．A workman for scene setting．65．What made the author feel cold？A．The heavy snowfall．B．The man﹣made scene．C．The low temperature．D．The film being shown．66．What would happen in the"three minutes"mentioned in the last paragraph？A．A new scene would be filmed．B．More stars would act in the film．C．The author would leave the studio．D．The next scene would be prepared．67．（10分）Grown﹣ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since．A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water．He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away．He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son．A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins"Twinkle，twinkle，little star"or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears．One explanation is the law of over learning，which can be stated as follows：Once we have learned something，additional learning trials（尝试）increase the length of time we will remember it．In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming，bicycle riding，and playing baseball long after we have learned them．We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as"Twinkle，twinkle，little star"and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks．We not only learn but over learn．The multiplication tables（乘法口诀表）are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school，because they are another of the things we over learn in childhood．The law of over learning explains why cramming（突击学习）for an examination，though it may result in a passing grade，is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course．By cramming，a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination，but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned．A little over learning，on the other hand，is really necessary for one's future development．67．What is the main idea of paragraph I？A．People remember well what they learned in childhood．B．Children have a better memory than grown﹣ups．C．Poem reading is a good way to learn words．D．Stories for children arc easy to remember．68．The author explains the law of over learning by．A．presenting research findingsB．selling down general rulesC．making a comparisonD．using examples69．According to the author，being able to use multiplication tables is．A．a result of over learningB．a special case of crammingC．a skill to deal with math problemsD．a basic step towards advanced studies70．What does the word"they"in Paragraph 4refer to？A．Commonly accepted rules．B．The multiplication tables．C．Things easily forgotten．D．School subjects．71．What is the author's opinion on cramming？A．It leads to failure in college exams．B．It's helpful only in a limited way．C．It's possible to result in poor memory．D．It increases students' learning interest．第二节（共1小题，每小题10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.选项中有两项为多余选项.71．（10分）Kids' health：Four steps for fighting stressEverybody gets stressed from time to time．（71）Some ways of dealing with stress﹣like screaming or hitting someone﹣don't solve（解决）much．But other ways，like talking to someone you trust，can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better．Try taking these four steps the next time you are stressed：（1）Get support．When you need help，reach out to the people who care about you．Talk to a trusted adult，such as a parent or other relatives．（72）They might have had similar problems，such as dealing with a test，or the death of a beloved pet．（2）Don't take it out on yourself．Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take it out on themselves．Oh，dear，that's not a good idea．Remember that there are always people to help you．Don't take it out on yourself．（73）（3）Try to solve the problem．After you're calm and you have support from adults and friends，it's time to get down to business．（74）Even if you can't solve it all，you can solve a piece of it．（4）Be positive．Most stress is temporary （暂时的）．Remember stress does go away，especially when you figure out the problem and start working on solving it．These steps aren't magic，but they do work．And if you can stay positive as you make （5）your way through a tough time，you'll help yourself feel better even faster．（75）A．Ask for a helping hand to get you through the tough situation．B．Notice your friends' feelings and find a way to help them．C．Different people feel stress in different ways．D．Ah，it feels so good when the stress is gone．E．You need to figure out what the problem is．F．And don't forget about your friends．G．Then，find a way to calm down．第四部分写作（共两节，满分10分）第一节短文改错（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）76．（10分）假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文．文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处．每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改．增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词．删除：把多余的词用斜线〔\〕划掉．修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词．注意：1每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；2只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分．I learned early in life that I had to be more patient and little aggressive．From the time I was about four until I was about six，I destroyed each of my toy．I was happy when the toys worked，but when things did wrong，I got angry and broke it．For a while parents bought me new toys．But before long they beganto see which was happening．When I tear apart my fifth birthday toy train，my father said，"That's it．No more toys to you．"My punishment lasted a year．Meanwhile，I found out that with more patience I must make my toys to last．My attitude changed from then

ahead【分析】句意：﹣﹣你想要哪一个？﹣﹣﹣（两个）随便哪一个都行．【解答】答案A．B项"我肯定"；C项"没问题"；D项"1．表示同意对方的请求，根据情况可译为：说吧，做吧，开始吧，进行吧．2．表示请对方继续说、继续做等，通常可译为：继续…吧．3．表示请对方先走或先做某事，其意为：你先走一步，你先请"．A项"我不介意"；根据句意"（两个）随便哪一个都行"可知，并不介意．因此A项符合语境，故选A．22．（1分）（2012•新课标）Sarah looked at finished painting with satisfaction．（）A．不填；a B．a；the C．the；不填D．the；a【分析】Sarah满意地看着那幅已画完的画．【解答】第一空特指"已经画完的画"；第二空考查介词短语with

C．that D．what【分析】总统会做什么来结束这场罢工根本不清楚．【解答】题干中by no means表示"绝不"相当于一个否定词．所以题干就可以简化为句型"it+be （not）+adj．+引导词+从句"，即it 为形式主语的主语从句．简化从句，去掉目的状语to end the strike后，可以很清楚地看出从句中谓语动词do后缺少宾语，即所要填的引导词充当宾语成分．在主语从句中how充当方式状语，that不充当成分，A和C都可直接排除．which和what虽然都可以充当宾语，但它们的区别就在于，which表示有范围的选择"哪一个"，而what没有范围表示"什么"．根据句意，该题没有可供选择的范围，故排除B，所以选择D．25．（1分）（2012•新课标）I don't

all!It speaks （36）louder than words．According to specialists，our bodies send out more（37）messages than we realize．In fact，non﹣verbal （非语言）communication takes up about 50% of what we really（38）mean．And body language is particularly（39）important when we attempt to communicate across cultures．Indeed，what is called body language is so（40）much，a part of us that it's actually often（42）unnoticed．And misunderstandings occur as a result of it．（41）For example，different societies treat the distance，between people differently．Northern Europeans usually do not like having（43）bodily，contact（接触）even with friends，and certainly not with（44）strangers．People from Latin American countries（45）on the other hand，touch each other quite a lot．Therefore，it's possible that in（46）conversation，it may look like a Latino is（47）following a Norwegian all over the room．The Latino，trying to express friendship，will keep moving closer．The Norwegian，very probably seeing this as pushiness，will keep （49）backing away﹣which the Latino will in return regard as（50）coldness．Clearly，a great deal is going on when people（51）talk．And only a part of it is in the wards themselves．And when parties are from（52）different cultures，there's a strong possibility of（53）misunderstanding．But whatever the situation，the best（54）advice is to obey the Golden Rule：treat others as you would like to be（55）treated．36．A．straighter

【分析】本文是一篇说明文，作者认为身势语比言辞更有效，而身势语却常常被人们忽视，在进行跨文化交流过程中，身势语尤为重要．作者以拉丁美洲人和挪威人为例进行了阐述．最后一次作者指出：不管什么情况，最好的建议是：对待别人希望被对待的那样．（你想别人怎么对待你，你就怎样对待别人．）【解答】36．B 考查形容词辨析．根据前文"Body language is the quiet，secret and most powerful language of all"，身体语言是所有语言中最重要的，所以它所起的。

2012年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语第二部分阅读理解(满分45分)第一节语篇阅读(每小题2分)第一节阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

(每小题2分)(A)Cold weather can hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. I you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.41. What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1?A. They are often forgotten by their owners.B. They are used to living outdoors.C. They build their won shelter.D. They like to stay in warm places.42. Why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are out in cold weather?A. To know when to bring them inside.B. To keep them from eating bad food.C. To help them find shelters.D. To keep them company.43. If pets are left on their own outdoors in cold weather, they may ___.A. run short of clean waterB. dig deep holes for funC. dirty the snow nearbyD. get lost in the wild44. What is the purpose of this text?A. To solve a problem.B. To give practical advice.C. To tell an interesting story.D. To present a research result.(B)You may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.L et’s start with the wind blowing from the behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90°angle (角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn’t flap (摆动). It shouldn’t look like on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can’t go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.45. What should you consider first while sailing?A. Sailors’ strength.B. Wave levels.C. Wind directions.D. Size of sails.46. What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The boat.B. The wind.C. The sail.D. The angle.47. What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?A. Move in a straight line.B. Allow the sail to flap.C. Lower the sail.D. Tack the boat.48. Where can you probably find the text?A. In a popular magazine.B. In a tourist guidebook.C. In a physics textbook.D. In an official report.(C)Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses.A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, many people in Russia smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt to “read”people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressionspermitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.49. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A. Love.B. Politeness.C. Joy.D. Thankfulness.50. The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ___ .A. show friendliness to strangersB. be used to hide true feelingsC. be used in the wrong placesD. show personal habits51. What should we do before attempting to “read” people?A. Learn about their relations with others.B. Understand their cultural backgrounds.C. Find out about their past experience.D. Figure out what they will do next.52. What would be the best title for the test?A. Cultural DifferencesB. Smiles and RelationshipC. Facial ExpressivenessD. Habits and Emotions(D)ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia – One of the world’s most famous fossils (化石) – the 3.2million-year-old Lucy skeleton (骨骼) unearthed in Ethiopia in 1974 – will go on an exhibition tour abroad for the first time in the United States, officials said Tuesday.Even the Ethiopian public has only seen Lucy twice. The Lucy on exhibition at the Ethiopian National Museum in the capital, Addis Ababa, is a replica while the real remains are usually locked in a secret storeroom. A team from the Museum of National Science in Houston, Texas, spent four years discussing with the Ethiopians for the U.S. tour, which will start in Houston next September.“Ethiopia’s rich culture of both the past and today, is one of the best kept secrets in the world,”said Joel Bartsch, director of the Houston museum.The six-year tour will also go to Washington, New York, Denver and Chicago. Officials said six other U.S. cities may be on the tour. But they said plans had not been worked out.Travelling with Lucy will be 190 other fossils.Lucy, her name taken from a Beatles song that played in a camp the night of her discovery, is part of the skeleton of what was once a 312-foot-tall ape-man (猿人).53. The author writes this text mainly to ___ .A. introduce a few U.S. museumsB. describe some research workC. discuss the value of an ape-manD. report a coming event54. What does the words “a replica” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A painting of the skeleton.B. A photograph of LucyC. A copy of the skeleton.D. A written record of Lucy.55. How many cities has Lucy’s U.S. tour plan already included?A. Four.B. Five.C. Six.D. Eleven.56. What was the skeleton named after?A. An ape-man.B. A song.C. A singer.D. A camp.(E)Make Up Your Mind to SucceedKind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s winter.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic –you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.57. What does the author think about the present generation?A. They don’t do well at school.B. They are often misunderstood.C. They are eager to win in sports.D. They are given too much praise.58. A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .A. doesn’t want to work hardB. cares a lot about personal safetyC. cannot share his ideas with othersD. can succeed with the help of teachers59. What does the growth mind-set believe?A. Admitting failure is shameful.B. Talent comes with one’s birth.C. Scores should be highly valued.D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.60. What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s study?A. Encourage them to learn from failures.B. Prevent them from making mistakes.C. Guide them in doing little things.D. Help them grow with praise.第二节根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

2012年全国普通高等学校招生考试(新课标全国卷)英语答案1-5 CABCA 6-10 CBBCC 11-15 ABBAC 16-20 BAACA21．A【解析】考查交际用语。

空格处句意：我不介意。

答语的下一句提到任何一个都可以，由此可知说话人不介意。

B项表示"我确信"，C项通常用来表示事情容易做或乐于相助，D项表示允许，都不符合语境。

22．C【解析】考查冠词的用法。

句意：Sarah满意地看着那幅完工的油画。

根据painting 前的修饰成分finished可知是特指那幅画；后一个空格后的satisfaction是抽象名词并且表示泛指，不用冠词。

23．C【解析】考查时态。

句意："人生就像在雪中走路，"奶奶过去经常说，"因为每一步都留有足迹。

"本句叙述的是客观事实，所以用一般现在时。

此处show用作不及物动词，意为"露出，显出"。

24．D【解析】考查名词性从句。

句意：总统能做什么来结束罢工，这点完全不清楚。

本句中的It是形式主语，真正的主语是从句what the president can do to end the strike。

在从句中，what作do的宾语。

25．B【解析】考查连词的用法。

句意：虽然我得说你的确看起来很面熟，但是我认为我们以前没有见过。

结合前后两部分的内容可知后半句引导的是让步状语从句。

A项表示"因此"，C项表示"因为，自从"，D项表示"除非"，语意逻辑都不恰当。

26．D【解析】考查形容词的级。

句意：结果对我们来说不太重要，但是如果我们确实赢了，那就更好了。

so much the better表示"那就更好了"。

此处是获胜与不获胜的比较，所以用比较级。

27．B【解析】考查动词短语辨析。

句意：Mary真的很擅长在课堂上做笔记。

It’s a pleasure to be here.W: Perhaps you could start by telling us where the idea for the book came from?M: Well it was first suggested in the early 1950s. Sir Hugh Beaver, the Managing director of Guinness, was out shooting birds with some friends. A bird flew away so quickly that no one was able to shoot it. Sir Hugh wonder ed whether this bird was the fastest bird in Europe. And it wasn’t the fastest. He wondered what it was.W: So I suppose he went to the nearest library to look for the information and he couldn’t find it?M: Yeah, that’s exactly what happened. And this made Sir Hugh think there must be other people in the same situation who wanted this kind of information. He thought that, like himself, people would be interested in finding facts about the records to satisfy their curiosity.W: So the idea for a book of records was born. And when did the first book come out?M: A few years later, in 1955. So to answer your first question: the tallest person in the world is 231.7cm tall.
