As we were 26 , we realized that only minutes earlier an 27 woman had fallen over at the entrance and hit her head on the ground. 28 was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock. 29 a lot of people stopped to help out.30 we were walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very 31 about what had happened to the elderly couple. He 32 to me, “Mom, it’s not much fun falling over in front of 33 .” Seeing that there was a flower stall（摊位）at the front of the supermarket, he added, “Why shouldn’t we 34 the lady a flower? It will make her feel better.” I was 35 that he’d come up with this 36 idea. So we went over and told the flower seller 37 we wanted. “Just take it,” she replied. “I 38 take your money for such a wonderful 39 .”By now medical staff had arrived, and were 40 the injured woman. We gave the flower to the woman’s husband and I told him it was 41 my son. At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you very much.” He then turned to me, “You have a 42 son.

It can uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up. Indeed science is so good at what it does that there’s always a temptation(诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful. David Brooks, author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.Brooks gained fame for several books. His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books. It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics. The book focuses on big questions: What has science revealed about human nature? What are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others aren’t?To answer these questions, Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines(学科). Considering this, you might expect the book to be a dry recitation of facts. But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox(非常规的), and perhaps unfortunate, way. Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the reader’s attention. So as Harold and Erica, the hero and heroine in his story, live through childhood, we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction. Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.On the whole, Brooks’s story is acceptable if uninspired. As one would expect, his writing is mostly clear and,to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed, for instance, the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own. While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere. These problems partly involve Brooks’s attempt to translate his tale into science.67．The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to _______.A．illustrate where science can be appliedB．demonstrate the value of Brooks’s new bookC．remind the reader of the importance of scienceD．explain why many writers use science in their works68．According to the author, which of the following could be a strength of the book? _____A．Its strong basis.B．Its convincing points.C．Its clear writing.D．Its memorable characters.69．What is the author’s general attitude towards the book? _____A．Contradictory.B．Supportive. C . Cautious.D．Critical.70．What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph? _____A．Problems with the book.B．Brooks' life experience.C．Death of the characters.D．Brooks' translation skills.（1）Passage 2For many parents , raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.In this article. I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples includethe color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right, It doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics. The laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect.Unfortunately, as long as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.55．Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict? _____A．both can continue for generations.B．Both are about where to draw the lineC．Neither has any clear winner D．Neither can be put to an end56．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean? ______A．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.B．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.C．The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.D．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.57．Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ______.A．give orders to the other B．know more than the otherC．gain respect from the other D．get the other to behave properly58．What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows? _______A．causes for the parent-teen conflicts B．Examples of the parent-teen war.C．Solutions for the parent-teen problems D．Future of the parent-teen relationshipCIn the depths of the French Guianese rainforest, there still remain unusual groups of indigenous(土著的) people. Surprisingly, these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs. And yet, people in this area are in fact French citizens because it has been a colony(殖民地) of the French Republic since 1946．In theory, they should live by the French law. However, their remote locations mean that the French law is often ignoredor unknown, thus making them into an interesting area of “lawlessness” in the world.The lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the effects of a Frenchman form Paris called Gin. Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area, which sits on the edge of the Amazon rainforest, with half its population of only 250,000 living in its capital, Cayenne.“I have a special love for the French Guianese people. I have worked there on and off for almost ten years,” says Gin. “I’ve been able to keep firm friendships with them. Thus I have been allowed to gain access to their living environment. I don’t see it as a lawless land. But rather I see it as an area of freedom.”“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life,” continues Gin. “I prefer to work in black and white, which allows me to show different specific worlds more clearly.”His black-and-white pictures present a world almost lost in time. These pictures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for. These local citizens now have to balance their traditional self-supporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic, which brings with it not only necessary state welfare, but also alcoholism, betrayal and even suicide.28．Why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in French Guiana? _______A．They seldom follow the French law.B．They often ignore the Guianese law.C．They are separated from the modern world.D．They are both Guianese and French citizens.29．Gin introduced the special world of the indigenous Guianese as _______.A．a tour guide B．a geographer C．a film director D．a photographer30．What is Gin’s attitude towards the lives of the indigenous Guianese? _______A．Cautious.B．Doubtful.C．Uninterested.D．Appreciative.31．What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to? _______A．The modern French lifestyle.B．The self-supporting hunting.C．The uncivilized hunting.D．The French Republic.BWhat Theresa Loe is doing proves that a large farm isn’t a prerequisite for a modern grow-your-own lifestyle. On a mere 1/10 of an acre in Los Angeles, Loe and her family grow, can(装罐) and preserve much of the food they consume.Loe is a master food preserver, gardener and canning expert. She also operates a website, where she share her tips and recipes, with the goal of demonstrating that everyone has the ability to control what’s on their plate.Loe initially went to school to become an engineer, but she quickly learned that her enthusiasm was mainly about growing and preparing her own food. “I got into cooking my own food and started growing my own herbs(香草) and foods for that fresh flavor,” she said. Engineer by day, Loe learned cooking at night school. She ultimately purchased a small piece of land with her husband and began growing their own foods.“I teach people how to live farm-fresh without a farm,” Loe said. Through her website Loe emphasizes that “anybody can do this anywhere.” Got an apartment with a balcony(阳台)? Plant some herbs. A window? Perfect spot for growing. Start with herbs, she recommends, because “they’re very forgiving.” Just a little of the herbs “can take your regular cooking to a whole new level,” she added. “I think it’s a great place to start.” Then? Try growing something from a seed, she said, like a tomato or some tea.Canning is a natural extension of the planting she does. With every planted food, Loe noted, there’s a moment when it’s bursting with its absolute peak flavor. “I try and keep it in a time capsule in a canning jar.” Loe said. “Canning for me is about knowing what’s in your food, knowing where it comes from.” In addition to being more in touch with the food she’s eating, another joy comes from passing this knowledge and this desire for good food to her children:“ Influencing them and telling them your opinion on not only being careful what we eat but understanding the bigger picture,” she said, “that if we don’t take care of the earth, no one will.”55．The underlined word “prerequisite”(Para. 1) is closest in meaning to “_______”.A．recipe B．substitute C．requirement D．challenge56．Why does Loe suggest starting with herbs? _____A．They are used daily.B．They are easy to grow.C．They can grow very tall.D．They can be eaten uncooked.57．According to Loe, what is the benefit of canning her planted foods? ______A．It can preserve their best flavor.B．It can promote her online sales.C．It can better her cooking skills.D．It can improve their nutrition.58．What is the “the bigger picture” (Para. 6) that Loe wishes her children to understand? ______A．The knowledge about good food.B．The way to live a grow-our-own life.C．The joy of getting in touch with foods.D．The responsibility to protect our earth.三、阅读表达训练阅读下面短文，按照要求完成阅读任务。

Criticism from coaches, parents, and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create an excessive amount of anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological, and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents’ and coaches′ criticisms to heart and find a flaw(缺陷) in themselves.Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting, young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game, many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find fault with youngsters’ performances. Positive reinforcement(强化) should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive reinforcement motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burn out.1．An effective way to prevent the burn out of young athletes is ______.A．to reduce their mental stress B．to increase their sense of successC．to make sports less competitive D．to make sports more challenging2．According to the passage sport is positive for young people in that ______.A．it can help them learn more about societyB．it enables them to find flaws in themselvesC．it can provide them with valuable experiencesD．it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves.3．Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletes ______.A．believing that criticism is beneficial for their early developmentB．without realizing criticism may destroy their self-confidenceC．in order to make them remember life’s lessonsD．so as to put more pressure on them4．According to the passage parents and coaches should ______.A．pay more attention to letting children enjoy sportsB．help children to win every gameC．train children to cope with(应付) stressD．enable children to understand the positive aspect of sports推理判断Passage BYou are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or a creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They”are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they”are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing(内化) your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives, but they don’t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish(沉溺)in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others—and even themselves—to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have a fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are. 51．What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1probably refer to? ______A．People and things around you. B．Opportunities and problems.C．Creators and their choices. D．Victims and their sufferings.52．According to Paragraph 2, creators ______.A．seem willing to experience failures in life B．possess the ability to predict future lifeC．handle ups and downs of life wisely D．have potential to create something new53．What can we learn from Paragraph 3? ______A．Creators and victims face quite different things in life.B．Creators and victims are masters of their lives.C．Victims can influence more people than creators.D．Compared with victims, creators are more emotional.54．The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4show that ______.A．strong attachment to sufferings in life pulls people into victimsB．people need family support to deal with challenges in lifeC．it takes creators quite a long time to get rid of their painsD．one’s experiences determine his attitude toward life55．What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage? ______A．To define victims and creators.B．To evaluate victims against creators.C．To explain the relationship between victims and creators.D．To suggest the transformation from victims to creators.推理判断Passage CThe latest research suggests that the key factor separating geniuses from the merely accomplished is not I. Q., a generally bad predictor of success. Instead, it’s purposeful practice. Top performers spend more hours practicingtheir craft. It you wanted to picture how a typical genius might develop, you’d take a girl who possessed a slightly above average language ability. It wouldn’t have to be a big talent, just enough so that she might gain some sense of distinction. Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some similar qualities. Maybe the writer was from the same town, had the same family background, or shared the same birthday.This contact would give the girl a vision of her future self. It would give her some idea of a fascinating circle that she might someday join. It would also help if one of her parents died when she was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fuelling a desperate need for success. Armed with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories of writers without end. This would give her a primary knowledge of her field. She’d be able to see new writing in deeper ways and quickly understand its inner workings.Then she would practice writing. Her practice would be slow, painstaking and error-focused. By practicing in this way, she delays the automatizing process. Her mind wants to turn conscious, newly learned skills into unconscious, automatically performed skills. By practicing slowly, by breaking skills down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the brain to internalize a better pattern of performance. Then she would find an adviser who would provide a constant stream of feedback, viewing her performance from the outside, correcting the smallest errors, pushing her to take on tougher challenges. By now she is redoing problems—how do I get characters into a room—dozens and dozens of times. She is establishing habits of thought she can call upon in order to understand or solve future problems.The primary quality our young writer possesses is not some mysterious genius. It’s the ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine; the latest research takes some of the magic out of great achievement. But it underlines a fact that is often neglected. Public discussion is affected by genetics and what we’re “hard-wired” to do. And it’s true that genes play a role in our capabilities. But the brain is also very plastic. We construct ourselves through behaviour.41．The passage mainly deals with ______.A．the function of I. Q. in cultivating a writerB．the relationship between genius and successC．the decisive factor in making a geniusD．the way of gaining some sense of distinction42．By reading novels and writers’ stories, the girl could ______.A．come to understand the inner structure of writingB．join a fascinating circle of writers somedayC．share with a novelist her likes and dislikesD．learn from the living examples to establish a sense of security43．In the girl’s long painstaking training process, ______.A．her adviser forms a primary challenging force to her success.B．her writing turns into an automatic pattern of performanceC．she acquires the magic of some great achievementD．she comes to realize she is “hard-wired” to write44．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “internalize”? ______A．to put something into something else or between two thingsB．to examine something carefully to check that it is correctC．to deal with an emotion or conflict by thinking about itD．to take in a particular idea, attitude, or belief of others45．What can be concluded from the passage? ______A．As to the growth of a genius, I. Q. doesn’t matter, but just his/her effort.B．A responsible adviser is more important than the knowledge of writing.C．What really matters in success is what you do rather than who you are.D．A fueling ambition plays the most leading role in one’s success.【语法重点复习导练】语法技能重点复习导练:句子1*语法应用实题测试221．T he number of smokers, ______ is reported, has dropped by 17percent in just one year.A．it B．which C．what D．as22．Schools should be lively places where individuals are encouraged to ______ to their greatest potential.

One old lady there who had Alzheimer’s disease became my 47 .Every time I came into her room, she was so 48 because she thought I was her daughter.

Her Internet access was locked—remotely—to prevent Internet searches, and her typing style was analyzed to make sure she was who she said she was: Did she enter her student number at the same speed as she had in the past? Or was she slowing down?In the battle against cheating, this is the cutting edge and a key to encourage honesty in the booming field of online education. The technology gives trust to the entire system, to the institution and to online education in general. Only with solid measures against cheating, experts say, can Internet universities show that their exams and diplomas are valid—that students haven’t just searched the Internet to get the right answers.Although online classes have existed for more than a decade, the concern over cheating has become sharper in the last year with the growth of “open online courses.” Private colleges, public universities and corporations are jumping into the online education field, spending millions of dollars to attract potential students, while also taking steps to help guarantee honesty at a distance.Aside from the web cameras, a number of other high-tech methods are becoming increasingly popular. Among them are programs that check students’ identities using personal information, such as the telephone number they once used.Other programs can produce unique exam by drawing on a large list of questions and can recognize possible cheaters by analyzing whether difficult test question are answered at the same speed as easy ones. As in many university classes, term papers are scanned against some large Internet data banks for cheating.41．Why was Jennifer watched in an online exam? ______A．To correct her typing mistakes. B．To find her secrets in the room.C．To prevent her from slowing down. D．To keep her from dishonest behaviors.42．The underlined expression “cutting edge” in Paragraph 3is closest in meaning to ______.A．advanced technique B．sharpening toolC．effective rule D．dividing line43．For internet universities, exams and diplomas will be valid if ______.A．they can attract potential students B．they can defeat academic cheatingC．they offer students online help D．they offer many online courses44．Some programs can find out possible cheaters by ______.A．checking the question answering speed B．producing a large number of questionC．scanning the Internet test question D．giving difficult test question45．Which of the following is the best title of this passage? ______A．The Advantages of Online Exams B．The High-tech Methods in Online CoursesC．The Fight against Cheating in Online Education D．The War against the Booming of Online Education（2）You can’t always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. But designer Mikhail Belvaev doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.The designer says he come up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain.I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy(伞蓬) built into a street lamp.” he said.The lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors(传感器)then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians shelter whenever it starts raining.In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360° motion sensor on the fiberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone is using the lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lighting strike. Each lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.66．For what purpose did Belyaev create the lampbrella? ______A．To predict a heavy rain. B．To check the weather forecast.C．To protect people from the rain. D．To remind people to take an umbrella.67．What do we know from Belyaev’s words in Paragraph2? ______A．His creation was inspired by an experience. B．It rains a lot in the city of Saint Petersburg.C．Street lamps are protected by canopies. D．He enjoyed taking walks in the rain.68．Which of the following show how the lampbrella works? ______A．motor→canopy→sensors B．sensors→motor→canopyC．motor→sensors→canopy D．canopy→motor→sensors69．What does paragraph 5mainly tell us about the lampbrella? ______A．Its moving speed. B．Its appearance. C．Its installation. D．Its safety.70．What can be inferred from the last paragraph? ______A．The designer will open a company to promote his product.B．The lampbrella could be put into immediate production.C．The designer is confident that his creation is practical.D．The lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow.（3）Sparrow is a fast-food chain with 200 restaurants. Some years ago, the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company. Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining, the chain was generally in an unhealthy state. With more and more fast-food concepts reaching the market, the Sparrow menu had to struggle forattention. And to make matters worse, its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.Sparrow failed to grow for another two years. Until a new CEO, Carl Pearson, decided to build up its market share. He did a survey, which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain, while customers of other fast-food chains were unwilling to turn away from them. Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign.Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Sparrow brand. The chain’s owner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy’s restaurants. Pearson resisted, arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun. Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time. Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success, rather than customers’ spending power. Finally, the owner accepted his idea.The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast-food industry. The TV ads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original songs performed by a variety of stars. Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product, the intension was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image. For example, he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover(营业额).These efforts paid off, and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast-food chains in the regions where it operated.71．Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO? ______A．The number of its customers was declining B．Its customers found the food unhealthyC．It was in need of financial support D．Most of its restaurants were closed72．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2refer to? ______A．Customers of Sparrow restaurants B．Sparrow restaurantsC．Customers of other fast-food chains D．other fast-food chains73．For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign? ______A．To build a good relationship with the public B．To stress the unusual tradition of SparrowC．To learn about customers’ spending power. D．To meet the challenge from Marcy’s restaurants.74．The TV ads of Sparrow ______.A．changed people’s views on pop stars B．amused the public with original songsC．focused on the superiority of its products D．influenced the eating habits of the audience75．What was Pearson’s achievement as a CEO? ______A．He managed to pay off Sparrow’s debts. B．He made Sparrow much more competitive.C．He helped Sparrow take over a company. D．He improved the welfare of Sparrow employees.三、阅读表达阅读下面短文,按照要求完成阅读任务.Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. Theycannot or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones(荷尔蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. In general, the person feels excited and ready to act.Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, "Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably."Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.56．What’s the author’s purpose by writing this passage?

We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesn’t really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children’s minds.One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a child’s ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images（影像）. Instead, they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows. Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability. TV doesn’t take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parents’ educational background have a stronger influence on a child’s reading. “A child’s reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads.” Anderson says.Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ（智商）scores and affects school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that it’s the other way around. “If you’re smart young, you’ll watch less TV when you’re older,” Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing thattelevision promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally believed, Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.36．By watching TV, children learn ________.A．images through wordsB．more than explicit meaningsC．more about images than wordsD．little about people’s psychology37．An educational program is best watched by a child ________.A．on his ownB．with other kidsC．with his parentsD．with his teachers38．Which of the following is most related to children’s reading ability? ________A．Radio-listeningB．Television-watchingC．Parents’ reading listD．Parents’ educational background39．Anderson believed that ________.A．the more a child watches TV, the smarter he isB．the younger a child is, the more he watches TVC．the smarter a child is, the less likely he gets addicted to TVD．the less a child watches TV, the better he performs at school40．What is the main purpose of the passage? ________A．To advise on the educational use of TV.B．To describe TV’s harmful effects on children.C．To explain traditional views on TV influences.D．To present Anderson’s unconventional ideas.BIf humans were truly at home under the light of the moon and stars, we would go in darkness happily, the midnight world as visible to us as it is to the vast number of nocturnal(夜间活动的）species on this planet. Instead, we are diurnal creatures, with eyes adapted to living in the sun’s light. This is a basic evolutionary fact, even though most of us don’t think of ourselves as diurnal beings. Yet it’s the only way to explain what we’ve done to the night: We’ve engineered it to receive us by filling it with light.The benefits of this kind of engineering come with consequences—called light pollution—whose effects scientists are only now beginning to study. Light pollution is largely the result of bad lighting design, which allows artificial light to shine outward and upward into the sky. Ill-designed lighting washes out the darkness of night andcompletely changes the light level—and light rhythms—to which many forms of life, including, ourselves, have adapted. Wherever human light spills into the natural world, some aspect of life is affected.In most cities the sky looks as though it has been emptied of stars, leaving behind a vacant haze（霾）that mirrors our fear of the dark. We’ve grown so used to this orange haze that the original glory of an unlit nigh—dark enough for the planet Venus to throw shadow on Earth, is wholly beyond our experience, beyond memory almost.We’ve lit up the night as if it were an unoccupied country, when nothing could be further from the truth. Among mammals alone, the number of nocturnal species is astonishing, Light is a powerful biological force, and on many species it acts as a magnet（磁铁）. The effect is so powerful that scientists speak of songbirds and seabirds being “captured” by searchlights on land or by the light from gas flares on ma rine oil platforms. Migrating at night, birds tend to collide with brightly lit tall buildings.Frogs living near brightly lit highways suffer nocturnal light levels that are as much as a million times brighter than normal, throwing nearly every aspect of their behavior out of joint including most other creatures, we do need darkness .Darkness is as essential to our biological welfare, to our internal clockwork, as light itself.Living in a glare of our making, we have cut ourselves off from our evolutionary and cultural heritage—the light of the stars and the rhythms of day and night. In a very real sense light pollution causes us to lose sight of our true place in the universe, to forget the scale of our being, which is best measured against the dimensions of a deep night with the Milky Way—the edge of our galaxy arching overhead.41．According to the passage, human being ________.A．prefer to live in the darknessB．are used to living in the day lightC．were curious about the midnight worldD．had to stay at home with the light of the moon42．What does “it”（Paragraph 1）most probably refer to? ________A．The night.B．The moonC．The skyD．The planet43．The writer mentions birds and frogs to ________.A．provide examples of animal protectionB．show how light pollution affects animalsC．compare the living habits of both speciesD．explain why the number of certain species has declined44．It is implied in the last paragraph that ________.A．light pollution dose harm to the eyesight of animalsB．light pollution has destroyed some of the world heritagesC．human beings cannot go to the outer spaceD．human beings should reflect on their position in the universe45．What might be the best title for the passage? ________A．The Magic lightB．The Orange HazeC．The Disappearing NightD．The Rhythms of NatureCOne day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the 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 random. 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 animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.There on the book’s cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read 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 the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.My mother’s call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous”（奇迹般地）experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.46．The author’s mother told him to borrow a book in order to ________.A．encourage him to do more walkingB．let him spend a meaningful summerC．help cure him of his reading problemD．make him learn more about weapons47．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 much48．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.49．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 books.D．The author has had happy summers ever since.50. Which one could be the best title of the passage? ________A．The Charm of a BookB．Mum’s Strict OrderC．Reunion with My BeagleD．My Passion for ReadingDA scientist working at her lab bench and a six-old baby playing with his food might seem to have little in common. After all, the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the very nature of the physical world, and the baby is, well, just playing…right? Perhaps, but some developmental psychologists have argued that this “play”is more like a scientific investigation than one might think.Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge, it falls in the ground—and, in the process, it belongs out important evidence about how physical objects interact ; bowls of rice do not flood in mid-sit, but require support to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowing the basic fact of the universe; nor are they ever clearly taught it. Instead, babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact. Though their ranges and tools differ, the baby’s investigation and the scientist’s experiment appear to share the same aim（to learn about the natural world）, overall approach（gathering direct evidence from the world）, and logic （are my observations what I expected?）.Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical world in this way—that they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering, and finally overturning a theory, that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires from what he or she has, for example, unlike the child, Mommy actually doesn’t like Dove chocolate.Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws on how children learn, but it also offers aninspiring look at science and scientists. Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort—the desire to explore, explain, and understand our world—is simply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cognitive systems that make young children feel good about feel good about figuring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it,” It is not that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children.”50．According to some developmental psychologists, ________.A．a baby’s play is nothing more than a game.B．scientific research into babies; games is possibleC．the nature of babies’ play has been thoroughly investigatedD．a baby’s play is somehow similar to a scientist’s experiment51．We learn from Paragraph 2 that ________.A．scientists and babies seem to observe the world differentlyB．scientists and babies often interact with each otherC．babies are born with the knowledge of object supportD．babies seem to collect evidence just as scientists do52．Children may learn the rules of language by ________.A．exploring the physical worldB．investigating human psychologyC．repeating their own experimentsD．observing their parents’ behaviors53．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? ________A．The world may be more clearly explained through children’s play.B．Studying babies’ play may lead to a better understanding of science.C．Children may have greater ability to figure out things than scientists.D．One’s drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows.54．What is the author’s tone when he discusses the connection between scientists’research and babies’play? ________A．Convincing.B．Confused.C．Confidence.D．Cautious.【语法重点复习导练】语法应用实题测试1 2016 浙江卷第一节:单项填空1．— Are you sure you’re ready for the best?— _____.
