They settled in at a comfortable East Side cafe and within minutes, another customer was approaching their table.“Hey, aren’t you from Mississippi?” the elegant, white-haired writer remembered being asked by the stranger. “I’m from Mississippi too.”Without a second thought, the woman joined the Welty party. When her dinner partner showed up, she also pulled up a chair.“They began telling me all the news of Mississippi,” Welty said. “I didn’t know what my New York friends were thinking.”Taxis on a rainy New York night are rarer than sunshine. By the time the group got up to leave, it was pouring outside. Welty’s new friends immediately sent a waiter to find a cab. Heading back downtown toward her hotel, her big-city friends were amazed at the turn of events that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a Mississippi.“My friends said: ‘Now we believe your stories,’” Welty added. “And I said: ‘Now you know. These are the people that make me write them.’” Sitting on a sofa in her room, Welty, a slim figure in a simple gray dress, looked pleased with this explanation.” I don’t make them up,”she said of the characters in her fiction these last 50 or so years. “I don’t have to.” Beauticians, bartenders, piano players and people with purple hats, Welty’s people come from afternoons spent visiting with old friends, from walks through the streets of her native Jackson, Miss., from conversations overheard on a bus. It annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a bus or a train, she hears only a fragment(片段) of a particularly interesting story.5. What happened when Welty was with her friends at the cafe?A. Her childhood friends came in.B. Two strangers joined her.C. A heavy rain ruined the dinner.D. Some people held a party there.6. The underlined word “them”in Paragraph 6 refers to Welty’s .A. readersB. partiesC. storiesD.friends7. What can we learn about the characters in Welty’s fiction?A. They live in big cities.B. They come from real life.C. They are mostly women.D. They are pleasure seekers.CIf you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what’s around. It’s called Apple Day but in practice it’s more like Apple Month. The day itself is on October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain. Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples. To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans. Although it doesn’t taste of anything special, it’s still worth a try, as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cat’s Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions. One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but you’ll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so it’s a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园).If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale, near Faversham in Kent.8.What can people do at the apple events?A. Attend experts’ lectures.B. Taste many kinds of apples.C. Plant fruit trees in an orchard.D. Visit fruit-loving families.9.What can we learn about Decio?A. It is a new variety.B. It is rarely seen now.C. It has a strange look.D. It has a special taste.10. What does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream” in Paragraph 3mean?A. A vain hope.B. A practical idea.C.A brilliant plan.D. A selfish desire.11.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To show how to grow apples.B. To help people select apples.C .To introduce an apple festival.D. To promote apple research.DBad news sells. If it bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers. But now that information is being spread and monitored(监控) in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By tracking people’s e-mails and online posts, scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the University of Pennsylvania. “They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling. But when you share a story with your friends,you care a lot more how they react. You don’t want them to think of you as a Debbie Downer.”Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication—e-mails, Web posts and reviews, face-to-face conversations—found that it tended to be more positive than negative(消极的), but that didn’t necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousands of articles on The New York Times’ website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e-mailed” list for six months. One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times’ readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others.Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused(激发) one way or the other, and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious: Why Things Catch On.”12 .What do the classic rules mentioned in the text apply to?A .Private e-mails. B. Research papers.C. News reports.D. Daily conversations.13. What can we infer about people like Debbie Downer?A. They’re socially inactive.B. They’re inconsiderate of others.C. They’re good at telling stories.D. They’re careful with their words.14.Which tended to be the most e-mailed according to Dr. Berger’s research?A. Science articles. B . Sports new.C. Personal accounts.D. Financial reviews.15 .What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Good News Beats Bad on Social NetworksB .Online News Attracts More PeopleC. Reading Habits Change with the TimesD. Sad Stories Travel Far and Wide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。

Find me another seat!”“Please calm down, Madam,” the stewardess replied. “The flight is very full today, but I will tell you what I will do---- I will go and check to see if we have any seats available(可利用的) in club or first class.”The woman glanced at the angry black man beside her. A few minutes later, the stewardess returned with the good news, which she delivered to the lady. “Madam, unfortunately, as I expected, economy is full. I have spoken to the cabin services director, and club is also full. However, we do have one seat in first class.”Before the lady had a chance to answer, the stewardess continued, “It is most extraordinary to make this kind of upgrade, however, and I have had to get special permission from the captain. But, learning this condition, the captain felt thatit was shocking that someone should be forced to sit next to such a tiring person.”Having said that, the stewardess turned to the black man sitting next to the lady, and said, “So if you'd like to get you things, sir, I have your seat ready for you…”At this point, obviously the surrounding passengers stood and gave an applause while the black man walked up to the front of the plane.21.

The Bowlers wore clothes from 1900, ate only food available in English at that time, and cooked meals on a single stove. Paul Bowler still wentto work every day in a then uniform. The children changed their clothes on the way to and from school and their classmates didn't know about their unusual home life. Joyce stayed at home, cooking and cleaning like a typical housewife of the time, though everything took three times as long.So does Joyce think that people's lives were better in the old days?“I think people in the old days had just as many troubles and worries,” Joyce said. “and I don't think their life was better or worse. There were lots of things back then that I'm happy I don't have to deal with nowadays, but on the other hand life was simpler.”“We had a lot more time with our family, and it was hard being nice to each other all the time,” eleven-year-old Hilary said.So what did the Bowler family miss most about modern life while living in the 1900 house? Paul, 39, “ telephone and a hot shower”; Joyce, 44, “ a quick cup of tea from a kettle you could just turn on”; Hilary, 11, “rock CD”; Joseph, 9,“ hamburger and computer games”25.

To make phone calls.C. To listen to music.D. To chat on the Internet.CRecently, I planned a trip to Tianjin hoping to see the changes after a decade. I thought to myself that I would take the opportunity to visit my old friends there, a couple of retired doctors.I told them: “I will arrive around 12:00, spend the day with you, and stay overnight. The next morning, I will leave your home on my own.” This was absolutely clear. On arrival, I found my old friends waiting for me. Lunch was ready at home: Five delicious dishes artistically displayed, and red wine, though I said I preferred not to have wine with Chinese food, and especially at lunch.The next morning, breakfast was rushed; my hosts said 8:00 am was fine to leave,as people were already at work.I had mentioned I wanted to buy high quality da ma hua. My friend said, as a foreigner, I was a target for cheaters. I protested that there was no danger. But he insisted, “I must take care of you!” At a moment I escaped from him and bought the 4-wheel suitcase which I longed for. I paid exactly 30 percent of the starting price. My friend said: “You are really talented at bargaining!” Still, it was not enoughfor him to let me go by myself .After I bought the da ma hua and some souvenirs, my friend said it was time to go to the train station. But this was “my” day, I intended to visit the Italian-style town with its bridge ornate with golden sculptures, the ancient buildings of the French and the German areas, and observe the changes in the city after so long. All that had become impossible unless I could convince my bodyguard to return home and let me free to visit alone. I begged him not to accompany me.I had secretly planned to buy an evening ticket, say goodbye to my clinging companion, and return alone in the city after his departure. But he followed each of my movements. Finally, I quit Tianjin at 11:50 am, and arrived in Beijing 28 minutes later.This was the second time I went through such a situation, but I swear there will never be a third one.28. What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage?A. He had an unforgettable trip to Tianjin.B. He had many warm-hearted Chinese friends in China.C.

James Dean, who diedat the age of 25 in September 1955, starred in just three movies before he diedin a car accident. They are Rebel Without a Cause , East of Eden and Giant . Yet, he will star ina new movie about the Vietnam War thanks to digital technology, which generates( 产生 ) imagesof James Dean by computer.The idea that one of the movies' most beloved former stars would be recreateddigitally for ahas been met with criticism(责备).Captain America actor Chris Evanscalled the plansto use Dean ’ s image in the film disrespectful.However, Mark Roesler, the chairman of CMG said, “ Dean has more than 183,000 followers on Instagram, and that he is still important today. He was known as Hollywood ’ s ‘ rebel( 叛逆) ’ who famously said ‘ if a man can bridge the gap( 沟壑 ) between life and death, if he can live after he ’ s dead, then maybe he is a great man. ” Roesler added, “ What was considered rebelliousin the 50's is very different from what is rebellious today, and we feel confident that he would support this modern day act of rebellion. ”Anton Ernst, the film ’ s director, said, “ I respect Dean’ s life and history. The movie is one of hope and love. There are still a lot of James Dean's fans worldwide and there would always be critics. All we can do is to tell a great story. ” Ernst added, “ The Dean family views this as his fourthmovie, a movie he never got to make.

What's the attitude of James’ familytowards his fourth movie?A. Supportive.B. Doubtful.C. Careful.D. Uninterested.CCould the device, smartphone or PC, which you are using affect the moral(道德的 ) decisions you make when using it?To test it,researchers presented multiple dilemmas to a sample set of 1,010 people.The participants were assigned a device at random.One case of the questions participants were asked is the classic“ trolley( 有轨电车 ) problem ” : A runaway trolley is headed towards five people tiedup on a set of train tracks. You can do nothing, resulting in the deathsof five people, or push a man off a bridge, which will stop the trolley. Thepractical response is to kill one man to save five lives, which 33.5 percent ofsmartphone users chose, compared to 22.3 percent of PC users.“ What we round in our study is that when people used a smartphone toview classic moral problems, they were more likely to make more unemotional,reasonable decisions when presented with a highly emotional dilemma,“ Dr Albert Barque-Duran, the lead author of the study, told City, University of London.“This could be due to the increased time pressure often present with smartphonesand also the increased psychological distance which can occur when we use suchdevices compared to PCs. ”As for why the researchers started this study, Dr Barque-Duran noted, “ Due to the fact that our social lives, work and even shopping take place online, itis important to think about how the contexts where we typically face moral decisions and are asked to engage in moral behavior have changed, and the impact this could have on the hundreds of millions of people who use such devices daily. “ It ’ s clear that we need more research on how our devices affect our moral decision-making because we ’ re using screens at an everincreasing rate. 8.Why did the author mention thetrolley problem?A.To introduce a difficult problem to readers.B.To introduce the aim of carrying out the study.C.To show an example of the questions in the study.D.To show the difficulty in dealing with dilemmas.9.How do the smartphone users of the study behave in dealing withemotional dilemmas?

The importance of smartphones.B. The significance of the study.C. How to make moral decisions.D. What affects people ’ s daily life.DOne way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognize itsbenefits. It is a mistake to think that we'd make better decisions if only wekeep our feelings under control. Instead, a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical( 合逻辑的) thinking leads to sound decision- making. It's true thatthere is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make usmore likely to avoid risks in our decision-making. There is also evidence thatanxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationship (for example, they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognizing people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present.In the real world though, it's worth realizing that feeling anxious once ina while is extremely common. It communicates to others that you care, and what's more, it's probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures ofanxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: if you're a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about thefuture and imagine possible plots, including bad ones.The important thing, if you are a worrywart ( 庸人自扰者) , is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And don ’ t bury your head in the sand. Instead, act on your fears —do the research as well as preparation, so rather than walking blindly into what you fear, you meet the challenge in fullreadiness.When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a seriousproblem. No one is denying that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview, you needn't see it as your enemy.Anxiety is an important feeling, developed through evolution. As for people whoare fairly anxious by nature, there is reason for cheer, too. Your nerves ( 神经紧张 ) are a sign of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.12.What can we infer from the first paragraph about anxiety?A.It can enable us to be more focused.B.It can stop us from thinking logically.C.It can make us more willing to take risks.bad decisions. 13.What can we learnfrom the passage?A.Anxious people are less sensitive to danger.B.Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars.C.Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk.D.Feeling anxious occasionally is a sign ofintelligence. 14 .How should we deal with anxiety inthe author's opinion?A. Regard it as our enemy.B.Take action to control it.C. Avoid being defeated by it.D. Treat it as a minorfeeling. 15.What is the theme of the passage?A. Effective ways to prevent anxiety.B. Unexpected benefits of anxiety.C. Tips on how to keep a good mood.D. Common misunderstandings about anxiety.EMany Beijing residents go to great lengths to avoid breathing the city’ s smoggy air,especially when it reaches critical pollution levels,but one local firm decided that canning( 灌装 ) and selling this poor quality air as a souvenir(纪念品) would be a great idea. Believe it or not, he was right.After seeing a number of companies achieve commercial success by canning fresh air from countries like France, Canada or Australia and selling it in China, Dominic Johnson-Hill, a British-born citizen of Beijing and owner of thePlastered 8 souvenir shop, decided to turn the idea on its head and sellcanned Beijing air throughout China and abroad.“ I ’ d seen people going crazy to buy canned air from Canada and Australia,so I thought it was time to push business the other way, ”the entrepreneur said. “ They ’ re perfect gifts! What else are you going to take home when yougo home from Beijing? A roast duck? A Plastered T-shirt? These cans are light,portable, you can just imagine someone ’ s face when they unwrap ( 翻开 ) it for Christmas. ”The few mouth-fulls of Beijing air come in standard tin cans featuring a couple of city landmarks as well as a bitter description of the contents: “ a unique mix of nitrogen, oxygen and some other stuff ” . The ironic ( 嘲讽的) souvenirs cost 28 RMB (US $4) and are available at the Plastered 8 shop, as well as on its online shop. But if you ’ re actually considering buying some, you'd better ask shop in advance, as they are virtually flying off the shelves.Johnson-Hill said that his shop is selling hundreds of Beijing air cans everyday.Personally, the well-sold can probably is an awakening for the public to beconcerned about the living conditions. Yet one thing that ’ s not particularlyclear is whether the air is really collected from Beijing, as the cans are labeled as “ Made in Shenzhen ” . There ’ s a big chance that ’ s just a kind ofMay have Plastered8 humor, as they also list“ Choking Hazard ”and“unidentified objects inside.” as warnings.Anyway, it is probably a unique way to make people realize theimportance of protecting the environment.16.What contributes to Dominic ’ s idea of canning and selling the poor quality air?A. Try to get used to it.B. Sell it all over the world.C. Can it as a souvenir.D. Try to push business theother way. 17.How may one feel when receiving canned Beijing air forChristmas?A. Satisfied.B. Surprised.C. Frightened.D. Refreshed.18.Which of the following can replace the underlined word“ stuff”in Paragraph 4? A . Liquids B. ObjectsC. Minerals D. Risks19.What do the underlined words in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Do something opposite.B. Give others a surprise.C. Make a big profit.D.Put forward a strange idea. 20 .What can we infer from the passage?A.The canned Beijing air may harm people who buy it.B.The Plastered 8 souvenir shop is famous for its humour.C.People should make efforts to protect the environment.D.Dominic Johnson-Hill likes the poor quality air in Beijing.第二部分语言知识运用(共20 小题;每题分,满分 30 分)阅读下边短文,从短文后各题所给的 A 、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出能够填入空白处的最正确选项。
