The whole atmosphere was very wa rm and loving, and it’s hard to express in words. This morning, when we both went to see the teacher again, he was so happy, and gave us both a hug. This made us feel that we just might have made his day, and that he was going to be okay.With that, I want to remind you to take the time to smile at the ones you love, be extra generous with hugs, kisses, things of that lovely nature!

Zheng Aiqiang, a “memory athlete” on TV show Super Brain, can remember 2,660 numbers in just one hour!You would think people like this have special brains. But according to a recent study by researchers from the US and the Netherlands, the brain structures of ordinary people and 23 of the world’s leading memory athlete s show no difference.That’s because good memories can be trained. New research in the journal Neuron(神经元期刊) suggests that you can become a super memorizer with just six weeks of hard training.Researchers found that technique(技巧) called loci, invented by ancient Greeks, can greatly help improve memory. By using loci, you are using your imagination to improve the brain’s memory networks. You can link(关联) something you need to remember with a place that you know very well. For example, to remember a list of numbers, imagine yourself walking through your house. Each thing is linked to a number. For example, zero could be handle(把手) on the door and five could be the painting on the wall.In one study, some ordinary people were given 20 minutes to remember 72 words. First they could only remember 26 of them. But when they were taught loci, they could remember 62 words.“Not everyone can become a memory champion. But everyone using the technique can improve a lot from the level they’re at,” said Boris Konrad, one of the researchers in the study.5.According to the study, ________.a. memory athletes have special brainsb. ordinary people and memory athletes have similar brain structuresc. hard training can make a person a super memorizerd. the ancient Greeks had the most powerful memory at that time。

Smith School of Business.Marketing professors Anastasiya Pocheptsova and Rosellina Ferraro, with graduate student, Ajay T. Abraham, conducted a series of experiments on test groups of cellphone users. The findings appear in their working paper, The Effect of Mobile Phone Use on Prosocial Behavior. Prosocial behavior, as is defined in their report, is action intended to benefit other people or society as a whole.The researchers found that after a short period of cellphone use the subjects were less willing to volunteer for a community service activity, compared to the control group(对照组). The cellphone users were also less persistent in solving word problems even though they knew their answers would contribute to a monetary(货币的)donation to charity.The study involved separate sets of college student subjects — both men and women and generally in their early 20s.“We would expect similar effects with people from other age groups,”said Ferraro.“Considering the popularity of cellphones, it does have the potential to have wide social effects.”The researchers use previous research to explain the cause of their findings:“The cellphone directly arouses feelings of connection with others, thus fulfilling the basic social need to belong.”This results in reducing one’s desire to connect with others face-to-face or to engage in empathic(同情的)and prosocial behavior.The study also distinguished its subjects from users of other social media—Facebook users—in one of the tests. The researchers found that participants felt more connected to others because of their cell-phones than because of their Facebook accounts, suggesting that this difference in connection was the underlying cause of the observed phenomenon.66. A person will conduct prosocial behavior when he ___.A. is closely connected to his friendsB. uses the cellphone for a period of timeC. takes part in community serviceD. uses the cell phone a lot67. What makes Facebook users different from cell phone users?A. Different accounts.B. Different purposes.C. Different human needs.D. The difference in connection.68. Compared with cell phone users, Facebook users probably ____.A. have a lot more friendsB. feel more connected to their friendsC. don’t like to engage in prosocial behavior at all.D. are more likely to engage in prosocial behavior69. Which could be the best title for the passage?A. Cell Phone Use Has Broad Social EffectsB. Cell Phone Use Leads to Prosocial behaviorC. Cell Phone Use is Linked to Selfish BehaviorD. The Harmful Effect of Cell Phone Use.(B)We all know that Paris is a popular travel destination, which has much more to offer than just seeing the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower that are well-known.

The duties of most First Ladies have included arranging and attending social functions, such as state dinners. As the president’s wife, the First Lady is in a highly visible position. Therefore, her behavior can make her a role model. She can change people’s thinking by supporting a favorite cause. The First Lady also has access to influential people, including the president. Many First Ladies have used their position and skills to draw attention to social and other policies, and sometimes events have forced a First Lady to take an outstanding role in leading the country.After a serious disease limited her husband’s ability to move, Eleanor Roosevelt worked tirelessly representing her husband.

She visited complaining retired soldiers and coal miners; she also inspected government relief projects. During World War Ⅱshe travelled abroad as America’s goodwill ambassador(亲善大使).Believing that it was vital to inform the public about the president’s and her own thoughts and actions, Eleanor Roosevelt was the first presidential wife to hold press conferences. As First Lady, she gave lectures and radio talks and wrote articles. She began writing a newspaper column titled“My Day,”which shared her views on social, political, and other issues. Thousands of people wrote to her, asking for help. When she could not answer a letter personally, she forwarded it to the proper government agency to answer.Eleanor Roosevelt was a frank supporter of civil rights and worked to end prejudice(偏见). She advised women to be politically active and supported programs to aid jobless women. As a result of her influence, there were more women than ever before working in a president’s government.74.

It began when a teacher ___43___ I should try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy idea because I didn’t have a good sense of ___44___, nor did I have the team ability to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me.

Apple has cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter "i" - and many other brands are following suit. The BBC’s iPlayer - which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet –used the title in 2008. A lovely bear - popular in the US and UK –that plays music and video is called "iTeddy". A slimmed-down version of London's Independentnewspaper was started last week under the name "i".In general, single-letter prefixes (前缀) have been popular since the 1990s, when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce first came into use.Most "i" products are targeted at young people and considering the major readers of Independent's "i", it's no surprise that they've selected this fashionable name.But it's hard to see what's so special about the letter "i". Why not use "a", "b", or "c" instead? According to Tony Thorne, head of the Language Center at King's College, London, "i" works because its meaning has become ambiguous. When Apple uses "i", no one knows whether it means Internet,information, individual or interactive, Thorne told BBC Magazines. "Even when Apple created the iPod, it seems it didn't have one clear definition," he says."However, thanks to Apple, the term is now associated with portability (轻便) ."adds Thorne.Clearly the letter "i" also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual.Each person believes they have their own needs, and we love personalized products for this reason.Along with "Google" and "blog", readers of BBC Magazines voted "i" as one of the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade.But as history shows, people grow tired of fads. From the 1900s to 1990s, products with "2000" in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modern.However, as we entered the new century, the trend inevitably disappeared.59. People use iPlayer to ______.A. listen to musicB. make a callC. watch TV programs onlineD. read newspapers60. We can infer that the Independent’s“i”is designed for ______.A. young readersB. old readersC. fashionable womenD. engineers61. The underlined word“ambiguous”means“______”.A. popularB. uncertainC. clearD. unique62. The writer suggests that _____.A.“i”products are often of high qualityB. iTeddy is alive bearC. the letter“b”replaces letter“i”to name the productsD. the popular of“i”products may not last long(C)Some people believe that a Robin Hood is at work, others that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying. But the donator who started sending envelopes with cash to deserving causes,accompanied by an article from the local paper, has made a northern German city believe in fairytales (童话).The first envelope was sent to a victim support group. It contained €10,000 with a cutting from the Braunschiveiger Zeitung about how the group supported a woman who was robbed of her handbag; similar plain white anonymous (匿名) envelopes, each containing €10,000, then arrived at a kindergarten and a church.The envelopes keep coming, and so far at least €190,000 has been distributed. Last month, one of them was sent to the newspaper’s own office. It came after a story it published about Tom, a 14-year-old boy who was severely disabled in a swimming accident. The receptionist at the Braunschiveiger Zeitung opened an anonymous white envelope to find 20 notes of €500 inside with a copy of the article. The name of the family was underlined."I was driving when I heard the news,” Claudia Neumann, the boy’s mother, told Der Spiegel magazine. “I had to park on the side of the road; I was speechless.”The money will be used to make the entrance to their house wheelchair-accessible and for a course of treatment that their insurance company refused to pay for.“For someone to act so selflessly, for this to happen in such a society in which everyone thinks of himself, was astonishing," Mrs. Neumann said. Her family wonder whether the donator is a Robin Hood character, taking from banks to give to the needy.Henning Noske, the editor of the Braunschiveiger Zeitung, said: “Maybe it is an old person who is about to die. We just do not know.” However, he has told his reporters not to look for the city’s hero, for fear that discovery may stop the donations.63. The Braunschiveiger Zeitung is the name of _______.A. a churchB. a bankC. a newspaperD. a magazine64. Which of the following is TRUE about the donation to Tom?A. The donation amounted to €2190,000.B. The donation was sent directly to his house.C. The money will be used for his education.D. His mother felt astonished at the donation.65. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A. the donator is a rich old manB. the donation will continue to comeC. the donation comes from the newspaperD. the donation will soon be found out66. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Money Is Raised by the Newspaper.B. Newspaper Distributes Money to the Needy.C. Unknown Hero Spreads Love in Envelopes.D. Robin HoodSection CDirections:Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentences can be used only once.

Second Life is similar to other popular“massively multiplayer online role-playing games.”The company Linden Lab of San Francisco, California created Second Life in 2003._____67___ Then he or she creates an electronic image, or animated character, called an avatar. Some people try to make their avatar look as close to their real self as possible. Other people change their sex or become an imaginary creature as their Second Life avatar.Once you have your avatar you become a "resident" of Second Life. ___68___ Your avatar also can make friends with other Second Life avatars. Residents can go to school, own a business, even get married. But, there are also activities in Second Life that are impossible in the real world. For example, if you do not feel like walking to that park near your Second Life home, why not fly?___69___ But it costs money to get other accounts and to buy land. The virtual world has its own currency, the Linden dollars. You use these to buy virtual clothes, property, entertainment and many other things. You can earn Linden dollars by working at a job. That unreal money has a real-life value. About 250 Linden dollars are worth one American dollar.Second Life is popular among schools and businesses. Many universities have set up campuses on the website. Many kinds of stores can also be found there. And, entertainers sometimes perform live on Second Life with their Second Life avatars.___70___ It is said that the total number of residents is more than 13 million from more than 100 countries.第二卷Ⅳ.

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)Though cell-phones are usually considered devices that connect people, they may make users less socially minded,which is found by a recent study from the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business.Marketing professors Anastasiya Pocheptsova and Rosellina Ferraro, with graduate student, Ajay T.Abraham, conducted a series of experiments on test groups of cellphone users. The findings appear in their working paper, The Effect of Mobile Phone Use on Prosocial Behavior. Prosocial behavior, as defined in their report, is action intended to benefit another person or society as a whole.The researchers found that after a short period of cellphone use the subjects were less likely to volunteer for a community service activity, compared to the control-group(对照组). The cell phone users were also less persistent in solving word problems even though they knew their answers would contribute to a monetary(货币的)donation to charity.The study involved separate groups of college student subjects - both men and women and generally in their early 20s. "We would expect similar effects with people from other age groups," said Ferraro. "Considering the popularity of cellphones, it does have the potential to have wide social effects."The researchers use previous research to explain the cause of their findings: "The cellphone directly arouses feelings of connection with others, thus fulfilling the basic social need to belong." This results in reducing one’s desire to connect with others face-to-face or to engage in empathic (同情的) and prosocial behavior.The study also distinguished its subjects from users of other social media — Facebook users — in one of the tests. The researchers found that participants felt more connected to others because of their cell-phones than because of their Facebook accounts, suggesting that this difference in connectedness was the underlying cause of the observed phenomenon.56. A person will conduct prosocial behavior when he ____.A. is closely connected to his friends.B. uses the cellphone for a period of timeC. takes part in community serviceD. uses the cell phone a lot57. What makes Facebook users different from cellphone users?A. Different accounts.B. Different purposes.C. Different human needs.D. The difference in connection.58. Compared with cell phone users, Facebook users probably _____.A. have a lot more friendsB. feel more connected to their friendsC. don’t like to engage in prosocial behavior at allD. are more likely to engage in prosocial behavior59. Which could be the best title for the passage?A. Cell Phone Use Has Broad Social EffectsB. Cell Phone Use Leads to Prosocial behaviorC. Cell Phone Use Is Linked to Selfish BehaviorD. The Harmful Effect of Cell Phone Use(B)Enter for a chances to win a Montana adventureImagine yourself hiking on the same route that Lewis and Clark once explored, fly fishing and whitewater rafting (激浪漂流)in beautiful lakes and rivers, learning how to speak Blackfeet, digging for ancient dinosaur remains, and standing at the edge of a 6,000-year-old glacier(冰川)in Glacier National Park.

The main objection to vegetarianism on a long-term basis is the difficulty of getting enough protein, the body building elements in food. If you have ever been without meat or animal foods for some days or weeds (say, for religious reasons) you will have noticed that you tend to get physically rather weak. You are glad when the fast is over and you get your reward of a succulent meat meal.Proteins are built up from approximately twenty food elements called “amino-acids”, which are found more abundantly in animal protein than in vegetable protein. This means you have to eat a great deal more vegetable than animal food in order to get enough of these amino-acids. A great deal of the vegetable food goes to waste in this process and from the physiological point of view there is not much to be said in favor of life-long vegetarianism.The economic side of the question, though, must be considered. Vegetable food is much cheaper than animal food. However, since only a small proportion of tae vegetable protein is useful for body-building purposes, a consistent vegetarian, if he is to gain the necessary 70 grams of protein a day, has to consume a greater bulk of food than his digestive organs can comfortably deal with. In fairness, though, it must be pointed out that vegetarians claim they need far less than 70 grams of protein a day.Whether or not vegetarianism should be advocated for adults, it is definitely unsatisfactory for growing children, who need more protein than they can get from vegetable sources.A lacto-vegetarian diet, which includes milk and milk products such as cheese, can, however, be satisfactory as long as enough milk and milk products are consumed.Meat and cheese are the best sources of usable digestible and next come milk, fish and eggs. Slow and careful cooking of meat makes it more digestible and assists in the breaking down of the protein content by the body. When cooking vegetables, however, the vitamins, and in particular the water-soluble vitamin C, should be lost through overcooking.63. A vegetarian is a person who _____.A. eats the meat of animals onlyB. eats the vegetable onlyC. drinks milk onlyD. eat nothing at all64. Compared with vegetable food, animal food contains ____.A. more proteinsB. more nutrientsC. more mineralsD. more amino-acids65. Which“fast”in the following sentences has the most similar meaning to the underlined word“fast”(in Para.1)?A. Johnny ran off as fast as his legs could carry him.B. Gandhi drank some orange juice to break his three-week fast.C. I always keep my watch 15 minutes fast.D. The rainforests are being chopped down at an alarmingly fast rate.66. From the passage, we know that _____.A. to gain enough protein, one must consume much more vegetable food than animal foodB. cooking vegetables for long time makes it more digestibleC. milk is the best source of usable animal proteinD. the most common deficiencies in Western diets are those of vitamins67. Which of the following best reflects the author’s attitude?A. V egetarianism is not good for one’s health.B. Vegetarianism should be advocated for adults.C. A lacto-vegetarian diet is the best as it provides adequate nutrition.D. One should have a well-balanced diet containing elements of all foods.第二卷Ⅱ.

Summarize the main idea and the main points of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, "Happiness depends upon ourselves." In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend too much time thinking about the future-for example, getting into college or getting a good job-that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.KEYS21. better 22. those 23. with 24. presented 25. who/ whom26. how 27. the 28. surviving 29. to be 30. it31-35 BEHAC 36-40 KFIJG41-45 BDACC 46-50 ABDDB 51-55 ACDAB56.

In order to solve the problem of Greenhouse Effect, we should encourage people to new energy.Summary WritingPeople can find happiness by adopting three helpful suggestions. First, enjoying simple in life helps to focus on and enjoy the present. Second, being active helps people to forget about worries, Third, helping other makes feel good.。

本文作者主要介绍了挪威科技大学的Sven Svebak 的研究发现:有幽默感的成年人比认为生活无趣的人寿命长,这一点在癌症患者身上尤为明显;如Sven Svebak 发现,癌症病人的幽默感越强,他在七年之内活下来的可能性就越大。
幽默感得分位居前四分之一的病人生存下来的几率比排在后四分之一的病人高35%;Sven Svebak 对2015名癌症病人的研究表明,幽默感较强的人死亡的几率比缺乏幽默感的人低70%左右。
1题详解】考查比较级。
句意:笑一笑,世界与你同笑。
更重要的是,一名美国研究人员报告说,你可能【活得更久。
此处是even修饰比较级,加强语气,故填better。
【2题详解】考查替代。
句意:有幽默感的成年人比那些认为生活无趣的人寿命长。
句中Adults是可数名词复数,用those替代复数名词,后跟定语从句。
故填those。
【3题详解】考查介词。
句意:生存的机会尤其比有癌症的人大。
people with cancer“有癌症的人”,此处是介词短语做定语。
故填with。
【4题详解】考查一般过去时态。
句意:他提交了54,000美国人的一项调查。
从后面的句子:he had followedfor seven years,和时间状语last Monday,可知此处用一般过去时态,故填presented。
【5题详解】考查定语从句。
句意:上周一,他在美国身心研究学会(American Psychosomatic Society)会议上公布了自己对约5.4万名美国人的研究结果。
此处Americans是先行词,指人,放在后面的定语从句中作宾语,且that不能引导非限制性定语从句,所以应由who/whom引导定语从句。
故填who/whom。
【6题详解】考查how引导的宾语从句。
句意:一开始,病人要填写一份问卷,问卷内容包括他们在现实生活中发现幽默的难易程度,以及幽默的想法有多重要。
句中easily是副词,所以介词on后面的宾语从句应由how引导。
故填how。
【7题详解】考查冠词。
句意:研究还显示,幽默在他们的生活中扮演的角色越大,他们活过这七年的机会就越大。
固定句型:the+比较级,the+比较级,“越……越……”。
此处用the+形容词比较级,故填the。
【8题详解】考查动名词。
句意:研究还显示,幽默在他们的生活中扮演的角色越大,他们活过这七年的机会就越大。
介词in后面接动名词surviving。
故填surviving。
【9题详解】考查固定搭配。
句意:在幽默欣赏方面得分最高的四分之一的成年人比得分最低的四分之一的人多35%的可能活下来。
固定搭配:be likely to do sth.“很可能做某事”。
故填to be。
【10题详解】考查it做形式宾语。
句意:研究发现幽默在减少死亡的机会这方面是很重要的。
固定句型:sb.+ find+ it+ adj+ that从句。
该句型中it是形式主语,后面的that引导的从句是真正的主语。
故填it。
【点睛】one替代“a+单数可数名词”,表示泛指;其复数形式ones替代泛指的复数名词。
特指的the one相当于that,替代“the+单数名词”;the one的复数形式the ones,替代“the+复数名词”,在口语中也常用those代替。
当后面有of短语时,多用that或those;当有前置修饰语时,只能用one(s)。
另外,one(s), the one(s), those都只能替代可数名词。
如:Radios are useful for me to learn English. I’d like to buy one.收音机对我学英语很有用,我想买一台。
(one替代a radio,是泛指收音机这类东西中的一台)We still have shortcomings,and they are very big ones too. 我们还有缺点,而且是很大的缺点。
(ones替代shortcomings)We kept seats for those who might arrive late.我们给可能来晚的人留了座位。
(those=the ones 替代the persons)Waves of red light are about twice as long as those of blue light.红色光线的波长约为蓝色波长的两倍。
(those替代the waves)The population of Scotland was eight times as large as that of Cornwall. 苏格兰的人口是康沃尔人口的八倍。
(that替代不可数名词the population,不能用the one)Section BDirections:Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once.
