The husband worked day and night to support the family but gave no care of his wife. So she thought, “He doesn't love me any more. He just cares about his business ... not me”.One day, she was about to take a shower when he stopped her at the door, “Let me take it first, okay?”“Why not me first?”she asked. “I am tired, honey, you take it later, okay?”She was entirely unhappy.One day, she found nothing to do and turned on his computer. A few words came into her sight. Reading them, she burst into tears. It was his diary: Today, I was quite sad. She asked me why I was always taking the shower first, and I said to her, “I was exhausted.”She was unhappy. In her mind, I treated her not as well as usual, but what could I do? I was not as rich as before! We moved to the small apartment, and there was only one shower in the bathroom. It was so cold to take a shower in such a cold winter. But I found that if one person took the shower first, the room could get a little warmer. So every day I rushed to the bathroom first. I was thinking that, when she took the shower, the room would get warmer, even if it was only 1℃.Now I cannot give her a comfortable life, take her to good restaurants, or buy expensive dresses for her, but at least, I can give her 1℃love.1.Why did the couple move to the small apartment _______?A.Both of them were out of work.B.They wanted to live a better life.C.The man could take better care of his business.D.They were too poor to live in the former house.2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “exhausted”_______?A.Devoted.B.Worried.C.Tired.D.Injured.3.What can be inferred from the passage_______?A.They would live a richer life soon.B.The woman misunderstood her husband.C.The man would care less about his business.D.The woman would get angry after reading the diary.4.What's the best title of the passage_______?A.A Love StoryB.1℃LoveC.A Suffering CoupleD.Fight for the Bathroom3、A recent study, while showing a generally positive attitude toward science, also suggests a widespread worry that it may be "running out of control ". This idea is dangerous.Science can be a force for evil(邪恶）as well as for good. Its applications can be channeled either way, depending on our decisions. The decisions we make, personally or collectively will determine the outcomes of science. But here is real danger. Science is advancing so fast and is so strongly influenced by businesses that we are likely to believe whatever decisions we come to will make little difference. And, rather than fighting for the best possible policies, we may step back and do nothing.Some people go even further. They say that despite the moral and legal objections ( 反对) whatever is scientifically possible will be done—-somewhere, sometime. They believe that science will get out of control in the end. This belief is dangerous too, because it fuels a sense of hopelessness and discourages them from making efforts to build a safer world.In our interconnected（互联的）world，the lack of agreement in and out of the world of science can lead to the failure to control the use of science. Without a common understanding, the challenges of "controlling" science in this century will be really tough. Take human cloning for example. Despite the general agreement among scientists on its possible huge impact(影响)on traditional moral values, some countries still go ahead with the research and development of its related techniques. The outcomes are hard to predict. The outcomes are hard to predict. Therefore, discussions on how science is applied should be extended far beyond scientific societies. Only through the united efforts of people with hope, can we be fully safe against the misuse science and can science best serve mankind in the future.1. According to the passage, what will happen if we hold that science is getting beyond control?A. The development of science will hopelessly slow down.B. Businesses will have an even greater influence on science.C. The public will lose faith in bringing about a bright future.D. People will work more actively to put science under control.2. The discussion should reach beyond scientific societies becauseA. scientists have failed to predict the outcomesB the ties between different areas need strengtheningC. united efforts are necessary for the development of scienceD. people need to work together to prevent the bad use of science3. What can we conclude from the recent study?A. People think highly of science. B People hold mixed opinions about science.C. Science is getting dangerously out of controlD. Science is used for both good and bad purposes4. What is the main idea of the passage?A Science and its applications bring us many dangers.B. The development of science mostly lies in people’s attitudes.C Mankind can largely take control of science with their efforts.D The future of science will be influenced by the dangerous ideas4、 People have been wondering why elephants do not develop cancer even though they have lifespans(寿命)that are similar to humans, living for around 50 to 70 years.Now scientists believe they know why. A team at the University of Chicago, US has found that elephants carry a large number of genes that stop tumors(肿瘤)developing. To be precise, they found 20 copies of an anti-tumor gene called TP53 in elephants. Most other species, including humans, only carry one copy. According to the research, the extra copies of the gene improved the animal’s sensitivity to DNA damage, which lets the cells quickly kill themselves whendamaged before they can go on to form deadly tumors.“An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evolution of large body sizes in many animals ,”the study author Dr Vincent Lynch told The Guardian. If every living cell has the same chance of becoming cancerous(癌变的), large creatures with a long lifespan like whales and elephants should have a greater risk of developing cancer than humans and mice. But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.This phenomenon was found by Oxford University scientist Richard Peto in the 1970s and later named “Peto’s paradox(悖论)”. Biologists believe it results from larger animals using protection that many smaller animals do not. In the elephant’s case, the making of TP53 is nature’s way of keeping this species alive. The study also found that when the same genes were brought to life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance as elephants. This means researchers could use the discovery to develop new treatments that can help stop cancers spreading or even developing in the first place.“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer,”said Joshua Schiffman, a biologist at the School of Medicine, University of Utah, US. “It’s up to us to learn how different animals deal with the problem so that we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people.”1.Why are elephants unlikely to develop cancer?A.They have a rather large body size.B.Their genes suffer no DNA damage.C.Certain genes in their body kill existing tumors.D.They carry many genes to prevent tumors developing.2.According to the passage, what has been a risk in the evolution of large animals?A.Deadly tumors.B.The huge body mass.C.Cells killing themselves.D.Sensitivity to DNA damage.3.What does the underlined part “This phenomenon”in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?rger animals have protection from TP53.B.The risk of cancer is notrelated to body size.rger animals suffer the same risk of cancer as smaller ones.D.The larger animals are, the bigger risk of cancer they will have.4.What can be concluded from the passage?A.Depending on nature is surely enough to fight against cancer.B.The TP53 genes have proved useful in stopping cancer in people.C.Humans are expected to prevent cancer with the making of TP53.D.The extra copies of elephants’genes are used to cure cancer patients.5、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。

Insects of all kinds have existed on earth for millions of years. Sometimes we think of all insects as pests. Human life, however, would have a difficult time continuing without insects, (21) they pollinate plants and are a food source for many animals. Besides, insects, especially the social (22) ，are fascinating.One very interesting and useful social insect is the honey bee. Bees (23) (consider) social insects because they live and work together. The bee lives in a beehive with other worker bees, and with the queen, who can lay thousands of eggs a day. The worker bees make wax used (24) (create) new cells inside the hive. Humans use this valuable beeswax (25) candles，cosmetics, expensive furniture polish, and other products. They also produce honey, a valuable food for humans (as well as for bees).Another fascinating social insect is (26) ant. Many types of ants live in colonies underground. There thousands of them build and maintain their “city”. They also cooperate to provide food, sometimes in a manner that looks like human. For example, some ants actually raise their own food. One type of ant “farmer” keeps and cares for tiny insects that suck sweet sap (汁液）from plants. Ant farmers milk them from the sap, just like actual farmers milk cows. The sap is then given as food to young ants and to the queen, (27) main duty is to lay eggs. Another type of ant that produces its own food does so by gardening. These farmer ants take pieces of leaves into the colony and chew them up. The soft，(28) _ (chew) up leaves then sprout ( 涌出）a fungus that the worker ants use to feed the queen and young ants. There are many other ways that ants cooperate to maintain and protect their colonies.There are also many other kinds of social insects. (29) makes them all so fascinating is their organization. (30) each insect has certain tasks to perform, the entire hive or colony appears to function as one living organism.Section B (10%)Directions：Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. imbalanceB. cultivatingC. motivationD. criticizeE. qualityF. fullyG. definite H. significantly I. genetic J. lacked K. strengthenSome personal ch aracteristics play a vital role in the development of one’s intelligence. After a 30-year follow-up study of 8, 000 males, American psychologists found out that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence itself, but non-intelligence factors. The so-called “non-intelligence factors” include one’s feelings, will, (31) , interests and habits.Though people all know that one should have (32) objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don’t pay much attention to (33) these factors.Some parents are greatly worried when their children fail to do well in their studies. They blame either (34) factors, malnutrition, or laziness, but they never take into consideration these non-intelligence fac tors. At the same time, some teachers don’t inquire into these as reasons why students do poorly. They simply give them more courses and exercises, or even (35) or laugh at them. After all, these students lose self-confidence. Some of them just feel defeated and give themselves up as hopeless. Others may go astray because they are sick of learning. An investigation of more than 1，000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46. 5 percent of them were afraid of learning because of examination and 36. 4 percent (36) persistence, initiative and conscientiousness.It is clear that the lack of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main obstacle to intelligence development in teenagers. It even causes a(n) (37) between physiological and psychological development among a few students.If we don't start now to (38) the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only obstruct the development of the intelligence of teenagers, but also affect the (39) of a whole generation. Some experts have put forward suggestions about how to cultivate students’ non-intelligence factors.First, parents and teachers should (40) understand teenage psychology. On this basic, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning, exciting their interests and toughening their willpower.III.Reading ComprehensionSection A (15%)Directions ：For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B, C and D. Fill in each blank "with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that over 50,000 people every year sustain some sort of winter-related back injury，and 5，800 of those are holiday decorating-(41) . These aches and pains can (42) bring trouble to people’s life. It is said that people’s back could sustain all sorts of strain from carrying heavy (43) ，and from the increased stress of lugging suitcases, decorations and gifts. Dr. Alanna Levine spoke to Debbye Turner Bell on “The Early Show” about how to (44) the back for the holiday season.The first (45) Dr. Levine gave was about carrying heavy shopping bags. Smaller bags, she said, are better. “You don’t want to load everything up into one bag and lug it around,” Dr. Levine explained. “You want to (46)the weight on your body. ” She also (47)putting heavier items towards the bottom in those bags and lighter items on top. Also, if you can, make frequent trips to the car to drop (48) purchases.(49) can be another pain in the back—from carrying heavy luggage. Again, Dr. Levine (50) not to pack everything into one bag. Even though it may cost more, she said that packing two smaller bags is safer than packing a heavy one. Also, choose a lightweight bag, so that the only weight you’re carrying is the (51) _ inside the suitcase.When unloading bags from an airport baggage claim, Dr. Levine suggested standing (52) to the carousel (圆盘传送带) and bending your knees to lift it up. “You want to avoid that reach-and-lift. It puts a(n) (53) on your lower back,” s he said.When it (54) holiday decorating, people take more (55) . Dr. Levine suggested decorating in pairs, so that one person can hand the lights and ornaments to the other person to hang, thus avoiding reaching or twisting to get what you need.41.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A , B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)One of the many interesting features of American society is the prestige granted to business institutions. Their status is arguably greater than that of any other kind of organization including, or perhaps especially, the government. What exactly is it about Americans that makes them place business on such a high social level and admire the successful business person so openly?One possible explanation could be that Americans view business as being more firmly based on the concept of competition than other institutions in their society. Fair and open competition is an ideal long cherished, one could even say deep rooted in American political and economic life. It is seen as the source of progress, prosperity and opportunity. In fact, in the American psyche, the importance of free competition goes even deeper than that；free competition is the means by which other defining values such as democracy and individual liberty are achieved and ensured.In American eyes, competition protects the freedom of the individual by ensuring that there is no monopoly of power, either economic or political. As in politics, where the government is divided into branches, each with powers that offset those of the others, businesses compete against each other for profits. The idea being that if one business tries to take unfair advantage of its customers, it will lose to competitors who treat their customers more fairly. In theory, where many businesses compete for the customers' dollars，the interests of the consumer will be paramount.Competition in business is also believed to strengthen the American ideal of equality of opportunity. It is seen as an open and beneficial contest where success goes to the fittest；to those most deserving of it. Competitive success is commonly seen as the American alternative to social rank based on inherited status. In America, accomplishment in business and the accumulation of wealth and power thereby is viewed in the same light as an aristocratic ancestry once was in the Old World.56.According to the passage, business achievement in America .A.is losing the respect of the societyB.has always been highly regardedC.is second only to public service in social statusD.has been viewed differently over the years57..In the American view, who benefits from business competition?A.The wealthy.B. The government.C. The dishonest businessman.D. The society as a whole.ernment and business are said to be similar for what reason?A.Both are considered untrustworthy.B. Both primarily benefit the wealthy.C. Both are based on competition.D. Both have a monopoly on power.59.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage about what Americans believe?petition is generally fair.petition should be limited to business.petition should be regulated by the government.petition does not benefit the poor.(B)To：David RodgersFrom：Mavis ChenSubject：getting back our old subscribersSince the marketing meeting yesterday, it occurred to me that we might be ignoring one potentially important source of subscribers. We have focused so intently on how to expand the appeal of our product to groups that have never used it before that I’m afraid we may have overlooked the obvious；we may have forgotten that there is a whole group of interested people who have used it and stopped for one reason or another.This target group has particularly good potential because it consists of readers who have demonstrated interest in the subject matter we present. Their interest is not something we have to work to stimulate. I suggest that making a maximum effort to win these readers back will be more effective on a percentage basis than pursuing some of the other groups we’ve identified.Since these readers quit using our product once, they were most likely dissatisfied with some aspect of our presentation or our pricing. Our new product will be vastly improved over the old version and is priced more competitively. We need to do everything possible to get those points across, perhaps by sending them a free issue and by asking for their opinions on how we might improve it even further. This could b e in the form of a very short survey, either included with the free issue or accessible online.If you think this idea has merit and might be willing to authorize it, let’s discuss it further when you’ve got a few spare minutes. I have a rough draft of the survey questions I could show you.60.What kind of product is the writer referring to in the memo?A. A web-based information service.B. A magazine.C. A consulting service.D. Computer software.61.Why is the writer confident that they can win back their old customers?A.Their product has no competition.B.Their product has changed dramatically.C.They have reduced the price of their productD.The need for their product has increased.62.What does the writer want to do?A.Start her plan immediately.B. Wait for input from the survey.C. Get Mr. Rodgers’ approval.D. Present her idea in the next meeting.(C)In the world of entertainment, TV talk shows have undoubtedly flooded every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one varies in style and format. But no two shows are more profoundly opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows.Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of “trash talk”. The topics on his show are as shocking as shocking can be. For example, the show takes the ever common talk show themes of love, sex, cheating, guilt, hate, conflict and morality to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is a display and exploitation of society’s moral catastrophes, yet people are willing to eat up the intriguing predicaments of other people’s lives.Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its extreme, but Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show focuses on the improvement of society and an individual’s quality of life. Topics range from teaching your children responsibility, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being dumped on society. Jerry ends every show with a “final word”. He makes a small speech that sums up the entire moral of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show’s main target audiences are middle-class Americans. Most of these people have the time，money, and stability to deal with life’s tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other h and, has more of an association with the young adults of society. These are 18 to 21 year olds whose main troubles in life involve love, relationship, sex，money and peers. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned underneath the show’s exploitation.While the two shows are as different as night and day, both have ruled the talkshow circuit for many years now. Each one caters to a different audience while bothhave a strong following from large groups of fans. Ironically, both could also be considered pioneers in the talk show world.63.Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear distasteful, theaudience .A.remain indifferent to themB. are ready to face up to themC. remain fascinated b y themD. are willing to get involved inthem64.Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A. A new type of robot.B. Family budget planning.C. Racist hatred.D. Street violence.65.Despite their different approaches, the two talk shows are both .A.ironicB. instructiveC. sensitiveD.cynical66.We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows .A.are targeted at different audiencesB. exploit the weakness in humannatureC. appear at different times of the dayD. have monopolized the talkshow circuitSection C (8%)Directions ：Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentencegiven in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.Chefs wore white because they work with flour, but the main chef wore a black hat to show he supervised.B.Huge investments have been made in new systems, information technology and amassing quality assurance accreditations.C.A successful uniform needs to balance two key sets of needs.D.Truly effective marketing through visual cues such as uniforms is a subtle art, however.E.Corporate clothing does have potential for further growth.F.The last 30 years, however, have seen an increasing emphasis on their role in protecting the image of an organization and in uniting the workforce into a homogeneous unit.First Impressions CountTraditionally uniforms were—and for some industries still are -- manufactured toprotect the worker. When they were first designed, it is also likely that all uniformsmade symbolic sense—those for the military, for example, were originally intended toimpress and even terrify the enemy；other uniforms denoted a hierarchy.(67 ) Particularly in “customer facing” industries, and especially in financial services and retailing. From uniforms and workwear has emerged “corporate clothing”. “The people you employ are your ambassadors,” says P eter Griffin, managing director of a major retailer in the UK. “What they say, how they look, and how they behave is terribly important. ” The result is a new way of looking at corporate workwear. From being a simple means of identifying who is a member of the staff, the uniform is emerging as a new channel of marketing communication.(68 ) Wittingly or unwittingly, how we look sends all sorts of powerful subliminal messages to other people. Dark colors give an aura of authority while lighter pastel shades suggest approachability. Certain dress style creates a sense of conservatism, others a sense of openness to new ideas. Neatness can suggest efficiency but, if it is overdone, it can spill over and indicate an obsession with power.(69 ) On the one hand, no uniform will work if the staff feel uncomfortable or ugly. Giving the wearers a choice has become a key element in the way corporate clothing is introduced and managed. On the other, it is pointless if the look doesn’t express the business’s marketing strategy. The greatest challenge in this respect is time. When it comes to human perceptions，first impressions count. Customers will size up the way the staff look in just a few seconds»and that few seconds will color their attitudes from then on. Those few seconds can be so important that big companies are prepared to invest years, and millions of pounds, getting them right.(70 ) Some banks have yet to introduce a full corporate look；police forces are researching a complete new look for the 21st century. And many employees now welcome a company wardrobe. A recent survey of the staff found that 90 percent welcomed having clothing which reflected the corporate identity.IV.Summary Writing (10%)Directions：Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own -words as far as possible.China accounts for almost 22 percent of the world’s population and is one of the world’s largest and most rapidly growing economies. However, it has onl y 10 percent of the world’s total cultivated area and is having increasing difficulties in securing water for agricultural purposes.Despite population growing at an average rate of around one percent a year and its economy at around 9 percent a year since the early 1990s，China has so far maintained approximate self- sufficiency in agricultural products overall, in the sense that exports have been approximately matching imports. In fact, China has been the world’s fourth largest importer after the European Union, the United States and Japan.The ability of China's agriculture to keep pace with growing demand reflects a few key factors. Yield improvements have been achieved through more intensive use of inputs such as fertilizers, agricultural machinery and irrigation, and the introduction of advanced technologies in agricultural production.The Chinese government has had a policy of agricultural self-sufficiency. However, China's membership of the World Trade Organization (WTO) since 2001 could signal a greater preparedness to accept imports and embrace opportunities provided by export markets. Importantly, however, more than three decades of reforms have permitted the market to have a greater influence on what farmers are producing and selling. Reflecting these factors，China has been gradually shifting its agricultural production away from land intensive products，such as cereals, toward higher value, labor intensive products such as meat, fruit, vegetables, eggs, milk, fish and seafood. That is, China is producing more in line with its comparative advantage.V.Translation (15%)Directions ：Translate the following sentences into English，using the words given in the brackets.72.不断增加的世界人口对地球上有限的资源而言是一种极大的消耗。

Those who enjoy cooking.C. Those who are busy working.D. Those who like going camping.BMany people rush into the commitment of bringing home a four-legged family member, only to find out that they are not ready for a pet. This often results in the dog being turned over to a shelter where it may not find another home. This can be avoided if potential pet owners take the time to figure out if they are truly ready for the responsibilities of pet ownership.Being a responsible pet owner involves a financial commitment that goes beyond buying dog food. There are also parasite (寄生虫) prevention, boarding costs while traveling and the cost to care for the pet should it become ill or injured. That is not to say that one must be rich in order to have a dog, but it is important to be prepared for the expenses that come with being a pet owner.Another consideration is the time commitment. An owner away from home for 14 hours every day is not an ideal situation for a dog. A potential dog owner must also consider the time it takes to care for his or her pet, the time it takes to feed, walk, play with, bathe and clean up. Also, dogs require attention. Be prepared to spend time each day petting and playing with it.Dogs are dogs, and will act like dogs. This includes barking, digging, having accidents in the house and, possibly, destroying some of the owner’s prized possessions, such as furniture, shoes and cell phones. If the above would cause an owner to want to get rid ofthe dog, then he or she is not yet ready to be a pet owner. Many wonderful pets end up in shelters simply because they acted like dogs!4. Who might be qualified to be a dog owner, according to the text?A. Jim, who has a daughter sensitive to dog’s smell.B. Dick, a jobless teenager who can hardly pay his rent.C. Kari, a teacher who works eight hours a day.D. Steven, a business man who travels a lot on business.5. To be a responsible dog owner you need to do all the following EXCEPT _________A. finding a shelter for it when you are bored with itB. buying dog food and feeding itC. taking it to hospital when necessaryD. spending time each day playing with it6. What does the underlined part in the first paragraph probably mean?A. Rush to adopt a dog formally.B. Decide to be a pet owner without thinking about it carefully.C. Run into a pet shelter and take one home so quickly.D. Commit to buy a dog and take it home.7. What might be the best title for the text?A. Dogs Are DogsB. Pets Are Family MembersC. Have Time for a Dog?D. Ready for a Pet?CIn 2012, Kim Stemple was a special education teacher and a solid performer in her age group in marathons.And then she got sick.After three years of tests and treatments, the doctors figured out she has a rare mitochondrial disease that is causing progressive mental and physical health to go worse.They told her there was no cure and that this disease would take her life.Yet Stemple kept ruanning and competing in marathons.One day she was training for the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon in Las Vegas when she became too sick to travel.The usually outgoing Stemple sunk into disappointment.But then she received a gift-it was a marathon medal given to her by a friend.Stemple bung the medal near her hospital bed and it was an instant conversation starter with doctors, nurses and anyone who came to visit. That medal pulled Stemple out of her disappointment. And that gave Stemple the idea to start We Finish Together, an organization devoted to connecting runners who wish to donate medals with those who might appreciate them. Stemple pens a hand - written note of encouragement on each of the medals she gives away-Recipients have included hospital patients,residents of homeless shelters and even doctors and nurses who care for the very ill."This gives them a connection to someone,"says Stemple."If they receive a medal,they know soceone cares.Can a simple medal really make a difference?Joan Musarra said yes,who suffered from a serious disease."I opened my package containing my new medal and the notes of positive,warm thoughts.I was really excited,"she wrote to Stemple.It means so much to me to feel that I am not alone.”8. What can we infer about Stemple before she got too sick to exercise?A. She was doubtful,B. She was optimistic.C. She was courageous.D. She was down-hearted.9. What inspired Stemple to found We Finish Together?A. Her friend's gift.B. The medals she won.C. The patients' request.D. The encouragement from doctors.10. How does Stemple's organization help people in need?A. By having chats.B. By contributing money.C. By giving out recycled medals.D. By connecting their relatives.11.Why did Musarra write the letter to Stemple?iberilbtdenckreslesde eA.To ask for another medal.bie. bemlidoallB.To discuss about their illnesses.C.To relieve the symptoms of her illness.D.To show the medal's positive effect on her.DYou can relax if remembering everything isn't your strong suit. Recent research makes the case that being forgetful can be a strength--in fact selective memory can even be a sign of stronger intelligence.Traditional research on memory has focused on the advantages of remembering everything. But looking through years of recent memory data, researchers found that the neurobiology of forgetting 10 02001U0 can be just as important to our decision-making as what our minds choose to remember.Making intelligent decisions doesn't mean you need to have all the information at hand. It just means you need to hold onto the most valuable information. And that means clearing up space in your memory palace for the most up-to-date information on clients and situations. Our brains do this by creating new neurons(神经元) in our hippocampus, which have the power to overwrite(重写) existing memories that are influencing our decision-making.If you want to increase the number of new neurons in our brains' learning region, try exercising. Some aerobic exercise like jogging, power walking and swimming has been found to increase the number of neurons making important connections in our brains.When we forget the names of certain clients or details about old jobs, the brain is making a choice that these details don't matter. Although too much forgetfulness can be a cause for concern, the occasional lost detail can be a sign of a perfectly healthy memory system. The researchers found that our brains facilitate decision-making by stopping us from focusing too much on unimportant past details. Instead, the brain helps us remember the most important part of a conversation.We can get blamed for being absent-minded when we forget past events in perfect detail. These findings show us that total recall can be overvalued. Our brains are working smarter when they aim to remember the right stories, not every story.12. How can we help our brains produce more neurons?A. By having deep sleep frequently.B. By practicing swimming regularly.C. By doing mental labor repeatedly.D. By learning new skills constantly.13. Which of the following can best replace "facilitate" underlined in Paragraph 5?A. Postpone.B. Repeat.C. Promote.D. Abuse.14. What conclusion can be drawn from the text?A. Memory loss is well worth noticing.B. Decisions can't be made without memories.C. We shouldn't stress total recall too much.D. Forgetting is even more important than remembering.15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Caution: do remember to forget.B. Why and how people choose to forget.C. Want to become smarter? Learn to forget.D. Being forgetful might mean you are smarter.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AA Book Review —The Snake-Stone by Berlie DohertyThe setting : Urban England(the cities), but also rural England(the countryside) including remote English villages.The theme: The main theme is a teenage search of self-discovery, in this case the search for a mother from whom the hero was separated at an early age. Its other concerns are love, getting on with others, being persistent and courageous and trying to deal with doubts, troubles and worries. As the book moves to a close, James ’ swimming coach says to him: “You are not like a kid obeying instructions any more. You are divinglike a young man who knows where he is going.”The characters : James is the hero of the story. He is a championship diver, and has a comfortable life with his foster parents(养父母). Yet he also has the qualities to take him on a long journey to find his birth mother. The other characters in The Snake-Stone , James ’　parents, his diving instructor, best friend, the villagers, people he meets on his journey, are pictured realistically.The turning point:The turning point in the story comes while James ’　foster parents are away in London, and he wonders about the identity of his birth mother. The only clue he has is a fossil, “the snake stone ” which she left behind along with a note on which she had written: “Take good care of Sammie.” It waswritten on a torn envelope with parts of an address still there.The journey : Instead of going to London, James decides to find his birth mother. With help from his geography teacher, James sets out for the remote country village where his mother might be found. James haspainful, challenging, but also humorous and happy travels. The mother he finally meets, Anne, has a minor yet powerful voice in the novel. He come s to understand why she left him at a stranger’s door fifteen yearsbefore. Although the meeting is not long, it leaves him with a feeling of completeness. As a journey of self-discovery, The Snake-Stone also provides its readers with a happy ending. Its hero says, on returning to his foster parents,“I was home.”21. What is the main theme of the novel? A. Life with foster parents.B. Life in the world of diving.C. A journey of self-discovery.D. A travel around the country.22. What do the coach ’s words in Paragraph 2 suggest?A. James is a successful diver. B. James is an independent young man. C. James is an outgoing young man. D.

She hopes to use the language at next year’s Olympic Games in Tokyo. Takami zawa was one of the morethan 200,00 people who requested to volunteer for Tokyo ’s 2020 Games. English is not required for servicebut it is a useful skill for volunteers to have.But Takamizawa had not been able to learn the language when she was young. Takamizawa said that she was in high school when World War Two started. She said, “In my second year there, English was banned because it was the enemy language.”Takamizawa said her grandchildren helped persuade her that she was not too old to learn.“When Italked to my grandchildren about my wish, they said,‘It ’s not too late. We will teach you one word a daNatsuko is Takamizawa ’s granddaughter and main English teacher. Natsuko sends a new English word to her grandmother ’s phone every day. They also often work together directly on phrases that Takamizawa will need for the Olympics. “Welcome t o Tokyo, this is the Olympic stadium, how can I help you?”　Takamizawa answers when asked to say an English phrase she has learned. Natsuko explains that shewanted to give her grandmother something to enjoy. “I can clearly see her English is getting better. Itjoy now.”The EF English Proficiency Index is a measure of the level of English spoken in a country. Japan ranks 49th among countries where English is not the first language. This situation is slowly changing asyounger generations welcome English. However, Takamizawa believes real change will not happen unless Japanese people become more open to the rest of the world.

In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?Listen—Listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.Help them—If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don’t do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them—Be there for your friends to help make them feel better in hard times. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, “I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control, but if you can’t stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve to be with me at my best.” Always rememberthis! If you don’t want to stay with your friends when they’re in hard times, then you don’t deserve to bewith them when they’re having a good time!Make plans—Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go toa movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy. Byplanning things together, you both can have a good time. And you’ll remember these things when you’re all old!28. While your friend is talking to you about his or her feelings, you should .A. give him or her some adviceB. calm him or her downC. just listen unless askedD. share your feelings as well29. When we provide help for our friends, we should .A. put them before ourselvesB. try to do everything for themC. change their bad habits firstD. ignore their faults30. What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe’s words?A. Life without a friend is death.B. A friend is easier lost than found.C. A man is known by his friends.D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.31. What is probably the best title for the test?A. How to find a good friend.B. How to be a good friend.C. How to help friends in trouble.D. How to make more friends.DEarlier this year a series of papers in The Lancet reported that 85 percent of the $265 billion spent eachyear on medical research is wasted because too often absolutely nothing happens after initial results of astudy are published. No follow-up investigations to replicate(复制) or expand on a discovery. No one usesthe findings to build new technologies.The problem is not just what happens after publication—scientists often have trouble choosing theright questions and properly designing studies to answer them. Too many studies test too few subjects toarrive at firm conclusions. Researchers publish reports on hundreds of treatments for diseases that work inanimal models but not in humans. Drug companies find themselves unable to reproduce promising drugtargets published by the best academic institutions. The growing recognition that something has gonewrong in the laboratory has led to calls for, as one might guess, more research on research—attempts tofind rules to ensure that peer-reviewed studies are, in fact, valid.It will take a concerted effort by scientists and other stakeholders to fix this problem. We can do so by exploring ways to make scientific investigation more reliable and efficient. These may include collaborative team science, study registration, stronger study designs and statistical tools, and better peer review, along with making scientific data widely available so that others can replicate experiments, therefore building trust in the conclusions of those studies.Reproducing other scientists’ analyses or replicating their results has too often in the past been looked down on with a kind of “me-too”　derision(嘲笑) that would waste resources—but often they may help avoid false leads that would have been even more wasteful. Perhaps the biggest obstacle to replication isthe inaccessibility of data and results necessary to rerun the analyses that went into the original experiments. Searching for such information can be extremely difficult. Investigators die, move and change jobs; computers crash; online links malfunction. Data are sometimes lost—even, as one researcher claimed when confronted about spurious(伪造的) results, eaten by termites(白蚁).There has definitely been some recent progress. An increasing number of journals, including Natureand Science, have adopted measures such as checklists for study design and reporting while improving statistical review and encouraging access to data. Several funding agencies, meanwhile, have asked that researchers outline their plans for sharing data before they can receive a government grant.But it will take much more to achieve a lasting culture change. Investigators should be rewarded for performing good science rather than just getting statistically significant (“positive”)but nonreplicable results. Revising the present incentive(激励) structure may require changes on the part of journals, funders, universities and other research institutions.32. What is the problem reported in those papers in The Lancet?A. Great achievements in medical research failed to get published.B. Money was wasted on follow-up investigations in medical research.C. Too many new research findings are not put into use after publication.D. Few scientists are devoted to building new technologies for mankind.33. Which of the following situation is most similar to the problem described in paragraph 2?A. A high school decides to cut its art programs due to the lack of fund.B. A patient gets sicker because he does not follow the doctor’s advice.C. A marketing firm tests a website with participants that are not target population.D. A drug company fails to produce the new drug due to no access to the latest data.34. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Measures are taken to ensure publication of tested results only.B. Scientific experiments must be replicable to be considered valid.C. Experiment replication is unoriginal and not worthwhile.D. Rewards should be given only to those nonreplicable findings.35. The purpose of this article is to ___________.A. argue that scientific research lacks efficiencyB. explain the result of a recent scientific studyC. introduce some recent progress in medical researchD. highlight the possible problems of research studies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。

A1All around the world, an increasing number of people are spending their time taking part in online volunteering projects. What encourages them to help strangers without expectation of money or even thanks?Radha Taralekar helped teach Imelda how to protect herself from HIV, though the two have never met, and neither knows the other’s name. Taralekar re ceived no payment for the job. For Taralekar, the project gave her the chance to use her professional experience. “I want to serve people with my medical knowledge,” she said. For some, the inspiration to volunteer online was far more personal. After losing his wife to cancer, Tony Selman spent many hours online helping Cancer Research to collect information on the illness. “Seeing how painful she was when my wife was dying, I decided to help scientists find a way to treat cancer,” he said.Interests and hobbies are also one of the reasons. Sam Luk joined other online volunteers to try to help the police solve murder cases. The police posted them online, calling for volunteers to help them to make sense of the messages. “I am interested in this and I love Sherlock Holmes,” said Luk.For writer Clay Shirky, some large online volunteering projects help millions of people, giving him a sense of achievement. He helps write Wikipedia, the world’s biggest encyclopedia (百科全书), which is written by people willing to use their professional knowledge.1.
