All three of us were critically injured. Stacey’s brain injury was the most severe. Despite all attempts to save her, she died two days later. When I became conscious, I heard my husband talking to the organ donor coordinator(器官捐助协调员).We knew that Stacey would want that because that’s the kind of person she was. She always wanted to assist people. She was always smiling and brought so much joy to others. She was friendly and enjoyed writing stories and poetry.It has been a comfort to know that Stacey lives on in the lives of others. I have even met the family of one of Stacey’s kidney recipients (接受人). This little girl was 6 years old at the time of the transplant. She was suffering from Nephrotic Syndrome. I saw pictures showing the effects of the Nephrotic Syndrome and the pictures of her after the transplant. They already showed an amazing difference. We correspond every year through letters, cards and pictures. The girl is doing really well at school and will be graduating from high school next year. I am so grateful that we have this relationship. I also feel relieved that my daughter has made so great a difference to a person’s life.Over the years, I have had some kind of contact with all of the recipients except the heart recipient. I’m very sorry for that.I would love to hear something from the heart recipient’s family.There are so many things that I wonder about her. I wonder if she is anything like Stacey. Does she smile all the time? Does she enjoy writing stories and poetry? I do hope that they can contact us!I feel guilty because I was the one driving in the accident which caused Stacey’s death. I also feel proud that my daughter has helped so many people.4. When did Stacey die from the traffic accident?A. On May 28th, 1998B. On May 29th, 1998C. On May 31st, 1998D. On May 30th, 19985.

What has the writer been looking forward to doing?A. Contacting the kidney recipient’s family.B. Visiting kidney recipient’s family.C. Getting paid from the heart family.D. Seeing the heart recipient.CWhen we give our kids holiday gifts, many of us can’t wait to hear their appreciative cries of “thank you!” once the wrapping gets ripped off. But here’s a tip: You’d be wise not to expect much gratitude from them for what they receive.Gratitude can make us happier, healthier, and even fitter. Butdo the kids show their gratitude for the stuff we buy them? All the research I’ve done has convinced me that it won’t happen. One mom told me that when she asked her 16-year-old son to thank he r for buying him a cellphone, he said, “But that’s what moms should do.” From a teenager’s angle, it’s a parent’s responsibility to take care of the family. According to Dunham, Yale’s assistant professor of psychology, “When teenagers code it that way, a gift is no longer something given freely and voluntarily”—it’s just mom and dad living up to their obligation.Parents do have the right to demand good manners and children should thank sincerely whoever gives them something. But kids can’t know how blesse d they are unless they have a basis for comparison. And they don’t learn that by a parent complaining that they’re ungrateful. We need to give our children the gift of a wider world view. Show by example that gratitude isn’t about stuff—which ultimately ca n’t make any of us happy anyway. It’s about realizing how lucky you are and paying your good fortune forward.You can collect all the charitable appeals and sit down together with the kids to go through them. You set the budget for giving and the kids de cide how it’s distributed. Once the conversation about gratitude gets started, it’s much easier to continue all year. Also you can set up a family routine at bedtime where kids describe three things that have made them grateful. When kids go off to college, you can text them a picture each week of something that inspires your appreciation.Teaching children to focus on the positive and appreciate the good in their lives is perhaps the greatest gift we can give them. And we can all learn together that the things that really matteraren’t on sale at a department store.8. How do children respond when receiving gifts from their parents?A. They show no interest in their parents’ gifts.B. They can’t wait to open their parents’ gifts.C. They show much gratitude to their parents for the gifts.D. They take their parents’ gifts for granted.9. To make children grateful for what they have, parents should _________.A. live up to their obligationB. ask their children to have good mannersC. teach their children by setting an exampleD. complain their children are ungrateful10. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A. No gifts are greater than teaching children to be positive and grateful.B. Children ought to realize how lucky they are to have considerate parents.C. Children are supposed to decide how to distribute their own moneyD. It is easy for parents to start the conversation about gratitude.11. What’s the purpose of the author writing this text?A. To explain the reason why children offer no gratitude to their parents.B. To give advice to parents on how to help children develop gratitude.C. To encourage parents to do things together with their children.D. To remind parents of their responsibility to educate theirchildren.DPeople with an impulsive personality refer to those who tend to do things without considering the possible dangers or problems first. According to a new study by researchers at the University of Georgia, such people may be more likely to have food addiction. The study found that people exhibiting impulsive behavior weren’t necessarily overweight, but impulsiveness was related to a direct relationship with food, and therefore, less healthy weight.Food addiction has been compared to addictive drug use. Studies have linked the dopamine (多巴胺) release that occurs after tasting delicious food to the dopamine release that happens when people consume other addictive substances.Impulsive behavior involves several personality traits (特点). Two of these traits, known as negative urgency and lack of perseverance, were particularly associated with food addiction and high BMI (身体质量指数) during the study.Negative urgency is characterized by the tendency to behave impulsively when experiencing negative emotions. Some people might drink alcohol or take drugs. For others, it could mean eating to feel better. Lack of perseverance is when a person has a hard time finishing hard or boring tasks. People with a lack of perseverance might have difficulty attempting to change addictive eating behavior, which could also cause obesity.“Impulsiveness might be one reason why some people eat in an addictive way despite motivation to lose weight,” said Dr. Ashley Gearhardt, a clinical psychologist. He was involved in developing the Yale Food Addiction Scale in aid of those people. “We are theorizing that if food addiction is really a thing, thenour measure, the Yale Food Addiction Scale, should be related to helping control impulsive action,” said Gearhardt.Clinical psychologist Dr. James MacKillop, whose lab was conducting the study, believes that therapies used to treat addictive drug behavior could help people who suffer from addictive eating habits.“Most of the programs for weight loss at this point focus on the most obvious things, which are clearly diet and exercise,” MacKillop said. “It seems that managing strong desires to eat would naturally fit in with the skills a person would need to eat healthily.”12. According to Paragraph 1, the result of food addiction is ________.A. less healthy weightB. motivation to lose weightC. negative emotionsD. taking alcohol or drugs13. How does the author introduce the two personality traits in Paragraph 4?A. By making comparisons and conclusions.B. By explaining causes and effects.C. By presenting questions and answers.D. By giving definitions and examples.14. What can be inferred about the Yale Food Addiction Scale from the text?A. It has been successfully carried out among overweight people.B. It might help some impulsive people with food addiction to lose weight.C. It will prove whether food addiction is a problem to impulsive people.D. It is theoretically a proper treatment for addictive food anddrug behavior.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Dopamine release caused by food addictionB. Food addiction compared to drug useC. Impulsive personality linked to food additionD. Food addiction contributing to obesity。

青花瓷发展的黄金时代是明朝永乐、宣德时期，与郑和下西洋在时间上重合，这不能不使我们思考：航海与瓷器同时达到鼎盛，仅仅是历史的偶然吗？从历史事实来看，郑和下西洋为青花瓷的迅速崛起提供了历史契机。
近三十年的航海历程推动了作为商品的青花瓷大量生产与外销，不仅促进技术创新，使青花瓷达到瓷器新工艺的顶峰，而且改变了中国瓷器发展的走向，带来了人们审美观念的更新。
这也就意味着，如果没有郑和远航带来活跃的对外贸易，青花瓷也许会像在元代一样，只是中国瓷器的诸多品种之一，而不会成为主流，更不会成为中国瓷器的代表。
由此可见，青花瓷崛起是郑和航海时代技术创新与文化交融的硕果，中外交往的繁盛在推动文明大交融的同时，也推动了生产技术与文化艺术的创新发展。
作为中外文明交融的结晶，青花瓷真正成为中国瓷器的主流，则是因为成化年间原料本土化带来了民窑青花瓷的崛起。
民窑遍地开花，进入商业化模式之后，几乎形成了青花瓷一统天下的局面。
一种海外流行的时尚由此成为中国本土的时尚，中国传统的人物、花鸟、山水，与外来的伊斯兰风格融为一体，青花瓷成为中国瓷器的代表，进而走向世界，最终万里同风，成为世界时尚。
一般来说，一个时代有一个时代的文化，而时尚兴盛则是社会快速变化的标志。

after T errafugia introduces the T ransition to the public later this week at the New Y ork Auto Show.But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways.It’s expected to cost$279,000.And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic.The car needs a runway.Inventors have been trying to mak e flying cars since the1930s,according to R obert Mann,an airline industry expert.But Mann thinks T errafugia has come closer th an any one to making the flying car a reality.The govemment has already permitted z&xxkthe comp any to use special materials to mak e it easier for the vehicle to fly.The T ransition is now going thr oughcrash tests to mak e sure it meets federal safety siandards.Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration’s decision five years ago to create a sep arate set of standards for light sport aircraft,which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes.T errafugia says an owner would need to pass a test andcomplete20hours of flying time to be able to fly the T ransition,a requirement pilots would find r elatively easy to meet.28.What is the first p aragraph mainly about?A.The basic d ata of the T ransition.B.The adv antages of flying cars.C.The potential mark et for flying cars. C.The designers of the T ransition.29.Why is the T ransition unlikely to show up in too many driveways?A.It causers traffic jams.B.It is difficult to operate.C.It is very expensive.D.It bums too much fuel.30.What is the govemment’s attitude to the development of the flying car?A.CautiousB.Favorable.C.Ambiguous.D.Disapproving.31.What is the best title for the text?A.Flying Car at Auto ShowB.The Transition’s Fist FlightC.Pilots’Dream Coming TrueD.Flying Car Closer to RealityWhen a leafy plant is under attack，it does n’t sit quietly.Back in1983,two scientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin,reported that y oung maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get.These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm.What the plants pump thr ough the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked.It’s a plant’s way of crying out.But is any one listening?Apparently.Because we can watch the neighbours react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to k eep insects away.But others do double duty.They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers.Once they arrive,the tables are turned.The attacker who are natural enemies to the attackers.zxx|kOnce they arrive,the tables are turned.The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.In study after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors.The damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but the neighbors,relatively speaking,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.Does this mean that plants talk to each other?Scientists don’t know.Maybe the first plant just ma de a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches,and so,in effect,was talking to its elf.P erhaps the neighbors just happened to“overhear”the cry.So information was exchanged,bu t it wasn’t a true,intentional back and forth.Charles Darwin,over150years ago,imagined a world far busier,noisier and more intimate(亲密的)than the world we can see and hear.Our senses are weak.There’s a whole lot going on.32.What does a plant do when it is under attack?A.It mak es noises.B.It gets help from other plants.C.It stands quietlyD.It sends out certain chemicals.33.What does the author mean by“the tables are turned”in p aragraph3?A.The attackers get attacked.B.The insects gather under the table.C.The plants get ready to fight back.D.The perfumes attract natural enemies.34.Scientists find from their studies that plants can.A.predict natural disastersB.protect themselves against insectsC.talk to one another intentionallyD.help their neighbors when necessary35.what can we infer from the last paragraph?A.The word is changing faster than ever.B.People have stronger senses than beforeC.The world is more complex than it seemsD.People in Darwin’s time were imaginative.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。
