You'd think in this era of labor-saving devices and convenient transportation that few people would have reason to be so tired. But probably more people complain of fatigue today than in the days when hay was baled by hand and laundry scrubbed on a washboard. The causes of modern-day fatigue are diverse and only rarely related to excessive physical exertion. The relatively few people who do heavy labor all day long almost never complain about being tired, perhaps because they expect to be. Today, physicians report, tiredness is more likely a consequence of under-exertion than of wearing yourself down with over-activity. In fact, increased physical activity is often prescribed as a cure for lowering energy. Physical. This is the well-known result of overworking your muscles to the point where metabolic (新成代谢的) waste products—carbon dioxide and lactic acid (乳酸)—accumulate in our blood and reduce your strength. Your muscles can't continue to work efficiently in a bath of these chemicals. Physical fatigue is usually a pleasant tiredness, such as that which you might experience after playing a hard set of tennis, chopping wood, or climbing a mountain. The cure is simple and fast: You rest, giving your body a chance to get rid of accumulated wastes and restore muscle fuel. Pathological (病理的). Here fatigue is a warning sign or consequence of some underlying physical disorder, perhaps the common cold or flu or something more serious like diabetes or cancer. Usually other symptoms besides fatigue are present that suggest the true cause. Even after an illness has passed, you're likely to feel dragged out for a week or more. Take your fatigue as a signal to go slow while your body has a chance to recover fully even if all you had was a cold. Pushing yourself to resume full activity too soon could lead to a relapse (旧病复发) and almost certainly will prolong our period of fatigue. Even though illness is not frequent cause of prolonged fatigue, it's very important that it not be overlooked. Therefore, anyone who feels drained of energy for weeks on end should have a thorough physical check-up. But even if nothing shows up as a result of the various medical tests, that doesn't mean there's nothing wrong with you. Psychological. Emotional problems and conflicts, especially depression and anxiety, are by far the most common causes of prolonged fatigue. Fatigue may represent a defence mechanism that prevents you from having to face the true cause of your depression, such as the fact that you hate your job. It is also your body's safety mechanism for expressing repressed emotional conflicts, such as feeling trapped in an ungrateful role or an unhappy marriage. When such feelings are not expressed openly, they often come out as physical symptoms, with fatigue as one of the most common manifestations. "Many people who are extremely fatigued don't even know they're depressed," Dr. Bulette says. "They're so busy distracting themselves or just worrying about being tired that they don't recognize their depression. " There is a great deal you can do on your own to deal with both severe prolonged fatigue and those periodic washed-out feelings. Vitamins and tranquilizers (镇静剂 ) are almost never the right answer, sleeping pills and alcohol are counterproductive, and caffeine is at best a temporary solution that can backfire with abuse and cause life-disrupting symptoms of anxiety. Instead, you might try: Diet If you eat a small breakfast or none at all, you're likely to experience mid-morning fatigue, the result of a drop in blood sugar, which your body and brain depend on for energy. For peak energy in the morning, be sure to eat a proper breakfast, low in sugar and fairly high in protein, which will provide a steady supply of blood sugar throughout the morning. Coffee and a doughnut are almost worse than nothing, providing a brief boost and then letting you down with a thud. Exercise Contrary to what you may think, exercise enhances, rather than saps, energy. Regular conditioning exercises, such as jogging, cycling, or swimming, help you to resist fatigue by increasing your body's ability to handle more of a work load. You get tired less quickly because your capability is greater. Exercise also has a well-recognized tranquilizing effect, which helps you work in a more relaxed fashion and be less dragged down by the tensions of your day. At the end of a day exercise can relieve accumulated tensions, give you more energy in the evening, and help you sleep more restfully. Sleep If you know you're tired because you haven't been getting enough sleep, the solution is simple: Get to bed earlier. There's no right amount of sleep for everyone, and generally sleep requirements decline with age. Find the amount that suits you best, and aim for it. Insomnia(失眠) and other sleep disorders should not be treated with sleeping pills, alcohol, or tranquilizers, which can actually make the problem worse. Know yourself Try to schedule your most difficult jobs for the time of day when you're at your peak. Some are "morning people" who tire by mid-afternoon; others do their best work in the evening. Don't overextend yourself, trying to climb the ladder of success at a record pace or to meet everyone's demands or expectations. Decide what you want to do and what you can handle comfortably, and learn to say no to additional requests. Recognize your energy cycles and plan accordingly. Many women have a low point premenstrually, during which time extra sleep may be needed and demanding activities are particularly exhausting. , Take breaks No matter how interesting or demanding you work, you'll be able to do it with more vigor if now and again you stop, stretch, and change the scenery. Instead of coffee and a sweet roll on your break, try meditation, yoga, callisthenics(健美操) , or a brisk walk. Even running up and down the staircase can provide refreshment from a sedentary(久坐的) job. If your job is physically demanding, relax in a quiet place for a while. The do-something-different rule also applies to vacation; "getting away from it all" for a week or two or longer can be highly revitalizing, helping you to put things in perspective and enabling you to take your job more in stride upon your return. 1. According to the passage, it is hard for people to find causes of tiredness when they are leading a comfortable and convenient life. 2. Causes of certain types of fatigue are discussed and some suggestions are put forward in the passage. 3. Most people don't want to talk about their unhappy feelings with others. 4. Physical fatigue is good because it brings us a lot of pleasure. 5. Psychological fatigue is the likely response of our body to emotional problems and conflicts. 6. Coffee and a doughnut make the satisfying breakfast as they provide people with the desired energy. 7. When you have a prolonged fatigue, it is necessary to have a thorough physical check- up even if there is nothing wrong with you. 8. No matter how interesting or demanding your work, you need to______. 9. From the passage, it can be seen that the author's attitudes towards the approach to dealing with modern-fatigue is______. 10. According to physicians' report, tiredness more probably results from______. 答案:1. N 2. Y 3. NG 4. N 5. Y 6. N 7. N 8. take breaks 9. positive 10. under-exertion。

For questions 1-7,choose the best answer from the four choices marked A),B),C)and D). For questions 8-10,complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Small Schools RisingThis year’s list of the top 100 high schools shows that today, those with fewer students are flourishing.Fifty years ago, they were the latest thing in educational reform: big, modern, suburban high schools with students counted in the thousands. As baby boomers(二战后婴儿潮时期出生的人) came of high-school age, big schools promised economic efficiency. A greater choice of courses, and, of course, better football teams. Only years later did we understand the trade-offs this involved: the creation of excessive bureaucracies(官僚机构),the difficulty of forging personal connections between teachers and students.SAT scores began dropping in 1963;today,on average,30% of students do not complete high school in four years, a figure that rises to 50% in poor urban neighborhoods. While the emphasis on teaching to higher, test-driven standards as set in No Child Left Behind resulted in significantly better performance in elementary(and some middle)schools, high schools for a variety of reasons seemed to have made little progress.Size isn’t everything, but it does matter, and the past decade has seen a noticeable countertrend toward smaller schools. This has been due ,in part ,to theBill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which has invested $1.8 billion in American high schools, helping to open about 1,000 small schools-most of them with about 400 kids each with an average enrollment of only 150 per grade, About 500 more are on the drawing board. Districts all over the country are taking notice, along with mayors in cities like New York, Chicago and San Diego. The movement includes independent public charter schools, such as No.1 BASIS in Tucson, with only 120 high-schoolers and 18 graduates this year. It embraces district-sanctioned magnet schools, such as the Talented and Gifted School, with 198 students, and the Science and Engineering Magnet,with383,which share a building in Dallas, as well as the City Honors School in Buffalo, N.Y., which grew out of volunteer evening seminars for students. And it includes alternative schools with students selected by lottery(抽签),such as H-B Woodlawn in Arlington, Va. And most noticeable of all, there is the phenomenon of large urban and suburban high schools that have split up into smaller units of a few hundred, generally housed in the same grounds that once boasted thousands of students all marching to the same band.Hillsdale High School in San Mateo, Calif, is one of those, ranking No.423—among the top 2% in the country—on Newsweek’s annual ranking of America’s top high schools. The success of small schools is apparent in the listings. Ten years ago, when the first Newsweek list based on college-level test participation was published, only three of the top 100 schools had graduating Classes smaller than 100 students. This year there are 22. Nearly 250 schools on the full ,Newsweek list of the top 5% of schools nationally had fewer than 200 graduates in 2007.Although many of Hillsdale’s students came from wealthy households, by the late 1990 average test scores were sliding and it had earned the unaffectionate nickname (绰号) “Hillsjail. ” Jeff Gilbert. A Hillsdale teacher who became principal last year, remembers sitting with other teachers watching students file out of a graduation ceremony and asking one another in astonishment, “How did that student graduate?”So in 2003 Hillsdale remade itself into three “houses,” romantically named Florence, Marrakech and Kyoto. Each of the 300 arriving ninth graders are randomly(随机地) assigned to one of the houses. Where they will keep the same four core subject teachers for two years, before moving on to another for 11th and 12th grades. The closeness this system cultivates is reinforced by the institution of “advisory”classes Teachers meet with students in groups of 25, five mornings a week, for open-ended discussions of everything from homework problems to bad Saturday-night dates. The advisers also meet with students privately and stay in touch with parents,so they are deeply invested in the students’ success.“We’re constantly talking about one another’s advisers,” says English teacher Chris Crockett. “If you hear that yours isn’t doing well in math, or see them sitting outside the dean’s office, it’s like a personal failure.” Along with the new structure came a more demanding academic program, the percentage of freshmen taking biology jumped from 17 to 95.“It was rough for some. But by senior year, two-thirds have moved up to physics,”says Gilbert “Our kids are coming to school in part because they know there are adults here who know them and care for them.”But not all schools show advances after downsizing, and it remains to be seen whether smaller schools will be a cure-all solution.The Newsweek list of top U.S. high schools was made this year, as in years past, according to a single metric, the proportion of students taking college-level exams. Over the years this system has come in for its share of criticism for its simplicity. But that is also its strength: it’s easy for readers to understand, and to do the arithmetic for their own schools if they’d like.Ranking schools is always controversial, and this year a group of 38 superintendents(地区教育主管)from five states wrote to ask that their schools be excluded from the calculation.“It is impossible to know which high schools are ‘the best’ in the nation, ”their letter read. in part. “Determining whether different schools do or don’t offer a high quality of education requires a look at man different measures, including students’ overall academic accomplishments and their subsequent performance in college. And taking into consideration the unique needs of their communities.”In the end, the superintendents agreed to provide the data we sought, which is, after all, public information. There is, in our view, no real dispute here, we are all seeking the same thing, which is schools that better serve our children and our nation by encouraging students to tackle tough subjects under the guidance of gifted teachers. And if we keep working toward that goal, someday, perhaps a list won’t be necessary.注意:此部分试题请在答卡1上作答.1. Fifty years ago. big. Modern.

【导语】2019年6⽉英语四级考试已结束,四六级频道在考后特别整理了2019年6⽉英语四级阅读真题及答案之长篇阅读段落匹配,仅供⼤家参考,祝⼤家顺利通过四级考试! Section B Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2. Resilience Is About How You Recharge, Not How You Endure [A] As constant travelers and parents of a 2-year-old, we sometimes fantasize about how much work we can do when one of us gets on a plane, undistracted by phones, friends, or movies. We race to get all our ground work done: packing, going through security, doing a last-minute work call, calling each other, then boarding the plane. Then, when we try to have that amazing work session in flight, we get nothing done. Even worse, after refreshing our email or reading the same studies over and over, we are too exhausted when we land to soldier on with (继续处理) the emails that have inevitably still piled up. [B] Why should flying deplete us? We’re just sitting there doing nothing. Why can’t we be tougher, more resilient (有复原⼒的) and determined in our work so we can accomplish all of the goals we set for ourselves? Based on our current research, we have come to realize that the problem is not our hectic schedule or the plane travel itself; the problem comes from a misconception of what it means to be resilient, and the resulting impact of overworking. [C] We often take a militaristic, “tough” approach to resilience and determination like a Marine pulling himself through the mud, a boxer going one more round, or a football player picking himself up off the ground for one more play. We believe that the longer we tough it out, the tougher we are, and therefore the more successful we will be. However, this entire conception is scientifically inaccurate. [D] The very lack of a recovery period is dramatically holding back our collective ability to be resilient and successful. Research has found that there is a direct correlation between lack of recovery and increased incidence of health and safety problems. And lack of recovery—whether by disrupting sleep with thoughts of work or having continuous cognitive arousal by watching our phones—is costing our companies $62 billion a year in lost productivity. [E] And just because work stops, it doesn’t mean we are recovering. We “stop” work sometimes at 5pm, but then we spend the night wrestling with solutions to work problems, talking about our work over dinner, and falling asleep thinking about how much work we’ll do tomorrow. In a study just released, researchers from Norway found that 7.8% of Norwegians have become workaholics(⼯作狂). The scientists cite a definition of “workaholism” as “being overly concerned about work, driven by an uncontrollable work motivation, and investing so much time and effort in work that it impairs other important life areas.” [F] We believe that the number of people who fit that definition includes the majority of American workers, which prompted us to begin a study of workaholism in the U.S. Our study will use a large corporate dataset from a major medical company to examine how technology extends our working hours and thus interferes with necessary cognitive recovery, resulting in huge health care costs and turnover costs for employers. [G] The misconception of resilience is often bred from an early age. Parents trying to teach their children resilience might celebrate a high school student staying up until 3am to finish a science fair project. What a distortion of resilience! A resilient child is a well-rested one. When an exhausted student goes to school, he risks hurting everyone on the road with his impaired driving; he doesn’t have the cognitive resources to do well on his English test; he has lower self-control with his friends; and at home, he is moody with his parents. Overwork and exhaustion are the opposite of resilience and the bad habits we acquire when we’re young only magnify when we hit the workforce. [H] As Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz have written, if you have too much time in the performance zone, you need more time in the recovery zone, otherwise you risk burnout. Gathering your resources to “try hard” requires burning energy in order to overcome your currently low arousal level. It also worsens exhaustion. Thus the more imbalanced we become due to overworking, the more value there is in activities that allow us to return to a state of balance. The value of a recovery period rises in proportion to the amount of work required of us. [I] So how do we recover and build resilience? Most people assume that if you stop doing a task like answering emails or writing a paper, your brain will naturally recover, so that when you start again later in the day or the next morning, you’ll have your energy back. But surely everyone reading this has had times when you lie in bed for hours, unable to fall asleep because your brain is thinking about work. If you lie in bed for eight hours, you may have rested, but you can still feel exhausted the next day. That’s because rest and recovery are not the same thing. [J] If you’re trying to build resilience at work, you need adequate internal and external recovery periods. As researchers Zijlstra, Cropley and Rydstedt write in their 2014 paper: “Internal recovery refers to the shorter periods of relaxation that take place within the frames of the work day or the work setting in the form of short scheduled or unscheduled breaks, by shifting attention or changing to other work tasks when the mental or physical resources required for the initial task are temporarily depleted or exhausted. External recovery refers to actions that take place outside of work—e.g. in the free time between the work days, and during weekends, holidays or vacations.” If after work you lie around on your bed and get irritated by political commentary on your phone or get stressed thinking about decisions about how to renovate your home, your brain has not received a break from high mental arousal states. Our brains need a rest as much as our bodies do. [K] If you really want to build resilience, you can start by strategically stopping. Give yourself the resources to be tough by creating internal and external recovery periods. Amy Blankson describes how to strategically stop during the day by using technology to control overworking. She suggests downloading the Instant or Moment apps to see how many times you turn on your phone each day. You can also use apps like Offtime or Unplugged to create tech free zones by strategically scheduling automatic airplane modes. The average person turns on their phone 150 times every day. If every distraction took only 1 minute, that would account for 2.5 hours a day. [L] In addition, you can take a cognitive break every 90 minutes to charge your batteries. Try to not have lunch at your desk, but instead spend time outside or with your friends—not talking about work. Take all of your paid time off, which not only gives you recovery periods, but raises your productivity and likelihood of promotion. [M] As for us, we’ve started using our plane time as a work-free zone, and thus time to dip into the recovery phase. The results have been fantastic. We are usually tired already by the time we get on a plane, and the crowded space and unstable internet connection make work more challenging. Now, instead of swimming upstream, we relax, sleep, watch movies, or listen to music. And when we get off the plane, instead of being depleted, we feel recovered and ready to return to the performance zone. 36. It has been found that inadequate recovery often leads to poor health and accidents. 37. Mental relaxation is much needed, just as physical relaxation is. 38. Adequate rest not only helps one recover, but also increases one’s work efficiency. 39. The author always has a hectic time before taking a flight. 40. Recovery may not take place even if one seems to have stopped working. 41. It is advised that technology be used to prevent people from overworking. 42. Contrary to popular belief, rest does not equal recovery. 43. The author has come to see that his problem results from a misunderstanding of the meaning of resilience. 44. People’s distorted view about resilience may have developed from their upbringing. 45. People tend to think the more determined they are, the greater their success will be. 答案: 36.D 37. J 38. L 39.

It has 27 from Detroit to Silicon Valley, where self-driving vehicles arc coming to life.In a 28 to take production back to Detroit, Michigan lawmakers have introduced 29 that could make their state the best place in the country, if not the world, to develop self-driving vehicles and put them on the road. "Michigan's 30 in auto research and development is under attack from several states and countries which desire to 31 our leadership in transportation. We can't let that happen," says Senator Mike Kowall, the lead 32 of four bills recently introduced.If all four bills pass as written, they would 33 a substantial updateof Michigan's 2013 law that allowed the testing of self-driving vehicles in limited conditions. Manufacturers would have nearly total freedom to test their self-driving technology on public roads. They would be allowed to send groups of self-driving cars on cross-state road trips, and even set up on-demand 34 of self-driving cars, like the one General Motors and Lyft are building.Lawmakers in Michigan clearly want to make the state ready for the commercial application of self-driving technology.

Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.How Work Will Change When Most of Us Live to 100A. Today in the United States there are 72,000 centenarians (百岁老人). Worldwide, probably 450,000. If current trends continue, then by 2050 there will be more than a million in theUS alone. According to the work of Professor James Vaupel and his co-researchers, 50% of babies born in the US in 2007 have a life expectancy of 104 or more. Broadly the same holds for the UK, Germany, France, Italy and Canada, and for Japan 50% of 2007 babies can expect to live to 107.B. Understandably, there are concerns about what this means for public finances given the associated health and pension challenges. These challenges are real, and society urgently needs to address them. But it is also important to took at the wider picture of what happens when so many people live for 100 years. It is a mistake to simply equate longevity (长寿) with issues of old age. Longer lives have implications for all of life, not just the end of it.C. Our view is that if many people are living for longer, and are healthier for longer, then this will result in an inevitable redesign of work and life. When people live longer, they are not only older for longer, but also younger for longer. There is some truth in the saying that "70 is the new 60" or "40 the new 30." If you age more slowly over a longer time period, then you are in some sense younger for longer.D. But the changes go further than that. Take, for instance, the age atwhich people make commitments such as buying a house, getting married, having children, or starting a career. These are all fundamental commitments that are now occurring later in life. In 1962, 50% of Americans were married by age 21. By 2014, that milestone (里程碑) had shifted to age 29.E. While there are numerous factors behind these shifts, one factor is surely a growing realization for the young that they are going to live longer. Options are more valuable the longer theycan be held. So if you believe you will live longer, then options become more valuable, and early commitment becomes less attractive. The result is that the commitments that previously characterized the beginning of adulthood are now being delayed, and new patterns of behavior and a new stage of life are emerging for those in their twenties.F. Longevity also pushes back the age of retirement, and not only for financial reasons. Yes, unless people are prepared to save a lot more, our calculations suggest that if you are now in your mid-40s, then you are likely to work until your early 70s; and if you are in your early 20s, there is a real chance you will need to work until your late 70s or possibly even into your 80s. But even if people are able to economically support a retirement at 65, over thirty years of potential inactivity is harmful to cognitive (认知的) and emotional vitality. Many people may simply not want to do it.G. And yet that does not mean that simply extending our careers is appealing. Just lengthening that second stage of full-time work may secure the financial assets needed for a 100-year life, but such persistent work will inevitably exhaust precious intangible assets such as productive skills, vitality, happiness, and friendship.H. The same is true for education. It is impossible that a single shot of education, administered in childhood and early adulthood, will be able to support a sustained, 60-year career. If you factor in the projected rates of technological change, either your skills will become unnecessary, or your industry outdated. That means that everyone will, at some point in their life, have to make a number of major reinvestments in their skills.I. It seems likely, then, that the traditional three-stage life willevolve into multiple stages containing two, three, or even more different careers. Each of these stages could potentially be different. In one the focus could be on building financial success and personal achievement, in another on creating a better work/life balance, still another on exploring and understanding options more fully, or becoming an independent producer, yet another on making a social contribution. These stages will span sectors, take people to different cities, and provide a foundation for building a wide variety of skills.J. Transitions between stages could be marked with sabbaticals (休假) as people find time to rest and recharge their health, re-invest in their relationships, or improve their skills. At times, these breaks and transitions will be self-determined, at others they will be forced as existing roles, firms, or industries cease to exist.K. A multi-stage life will have profound changes not just in how you manage your career, but also in your approach to life. An increasingly important skill will be your ability to deal with change and even welcome it. A three-stage life has few transitions, while a multi-stage life has many. That is why being self-aware, investing in broader networks of friends, and being open to new ideas will become even more crucial skills.L. These multi-stage lives will create extraordinary variety across groups of people simply because there are so many ways of sequencing the stages. More stages mean more possible sequences.M. With this variety will come the end of the close association of age and stage. In a three-stage life, people leave university at the same time and the same age, they tend to start their careers and family at the sameage, they proceed through middle management all roughly the same time, and then move into retirement within a few years of each other. In a multi-stage life, you could be an undergraduate at 20, 40, or 60; a manager at 30, 50, or 70; and become an independent producer at any age.N. Current life structures, career paths, educational choices, and social norms are out of tune with the emerging reality of longer lifespans. The three-stage life of full-time education, followed by continuous work, and then complete retirement may have worked for our parents or even grandparents, but it is not relevant today. We believe that to focus on longevity as primarily an issue of aging is to miss its full implications. Longevity is not necessarily about being older for longer. It is about living longer, being older later, and being younger longer.37、 An extended lifespan in the future will allow people to have more careers than now.38、 Just extending one's career may have both positive and negative effects.39、 Nowadays, many Americans have on average delayed their marriage by some eight years.40、 Because of their longer lifespan, young people today no longer follow the pattern of life of their parents or grandparents.41、 Many more people will be expected to live over 100 by the mid-21st century.42、A longer life will cause radical changes in people's approach to life.43、 Fast technological change makes it necessary for one to constantly upgrade their skills.44、Many people may not want to retire early because it would do harm to their mental and emotional well-being.45、 The close link between age and stage may cease to exist in a multi-stage life.46、People living a longer and healthier life will have to rearrange their work and life.Section CDirections:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneIn the classic marriage vow (誓约), couples promise to stay together in sickness and in health. But a new study finds that the risk of divorce among older couples rises when the wife—not the husband—becomes seriously ill."Married women diagnosed with a serious health condition may find themselves struggling with the impact of their disease while also experiencing the stress of divorce," said researcher Amelia Karraker.Karraker and co-author Kenzie Latham analyzed 20 years of data on 2,717 marriages from a study conducted by Indiana University since 1992. At the time of the first interview, at least one of the partners was over the age of 50.The researchers examined how the onset (发生) of four serious physical illnesses affected marriages. They found that, overall, 31% of marriages ended in divorce over the period studied. The incidence of new chronic (慢性的) illness onset increased over time as well, with more husbands than wives developing serious health problems."We found that women are doubly vulnerable to maritalbreak-up in the faceof illness," Karraker said. "They're more likely to be widowed, and if they're the ones who become ill, they're more likely to get divorced."While the study didn't assess why divorce is more likely when wives but not husbands become seriously ill, Karraker offers a few possible reasons. "Gender norms and social expectations about caregiving may make it more difficult for men to provide care to sick spouses," Karraker said. "And because of the imbalance in marriage markets, especially in older ages, divorced men have more choices among prospective partners than divorced women."Given the increasing concern about health care costs for the aging population, Karraker believes policymakers should be aware of the relationship between disease and risk of divorce."Offering support services to spouses caring for their other halves may reduce marital stress and prevent divorce at older ages," she said. "But it's also important to recognize that the pressure to divorce may be health-related and that sick ex-wives may need additional care and services to prevent worsening health and increased health costs."47、What can we learn about marriage vows from the passage? ______A. They may not guarantee a lasting marriage.B. They are as binding as they used to be.C. They are not taken seriously any more.D. They may help couples tide over hard times.48、What did Karraker and co-author Kenzie Latham find about elderly husbands? ______A. They are generally not good at taking care of themselves.B. They can become increasingly vulnerable to serious illnesses.C. They can develop different kinds of illnesses just like their wives.D. They are more likely to contract serious illnesses than their wives.49、 What does Karraker say about women who fall ill? ______A. They are more likely to be widowed.B. They are more likely to get divorced.C. They are less likely to receive good care.D. They are less likely to bother their spouses.50、 Why is it more difficult for men to take care of their sick spouses according to Karraker? ______A. They are more accustomed to receiving care.B. They find it more important to make money for the family.C. They think it more urgent to fulfill their social obligations.D. They expect society to do more of the job.51、 What does Karraker think is also important? ______A. Reducing marital stress on wives.B. Stabilizing old couples' relations.C. Providing extra care for divorced women.D. Making men pay for their wives' health costs.Passage TwoIf you were like most children, you probably got upset when your mother called you by a sibling's (兄弟姐妹的) name. How could she not know you? Did it mean she loved you less?Probably not. According to the first research to tackle this topic head-on, misnaming the most familiar people in our life is a common cognitive (认知的) error that has to do with how our memories classify and store familiar names.The study, published online in April in the journal Memory and Cognition, found that the "wrong" name is not random but is invariably fished out from the same relationship pond: children, siblings, friends. The study did notexamine the possibility of deep psychological significance to the mistake, says psychologist David Rubin, "but it does tell us who's in and who's out of the group."The study also found that within that group, misnamings occurred where the names shared initial or internal sounds, like Jimmy and Joanie or John and Bob. Physical resemblance between people was not a factor. Nor was gender. The researchers conducted five separate surveys of more than 1,700 people. Some of the surveys included only college students; others were done with a mixed-age population. Some asked subjects about incidents where someone close to them—family or friend—had called them by another person's name. The other surveys asked about times when subjects had themselves called someone close to them by the wrong name. All the surveys found that people mixed up names within relationship groups such as grandchildren, friends and siblings but hardly ever crossed these boundaries.In general, the study found that undergraduates were almost as likely as old people to make this mistake and men as likely as women. Older people and women made the mistake slightly more often, but that may be because grandparents have more grandchildren to mix up than parents have children. Also, mothers may call on their children more often than fathers, given traditional gender norms. There was no evidence that errors occurred more when the misnamer was frustrated, tired or angry.52、 How might people often feel when they were misnamed?______A. Unwanted.B. Unhappy.C. Confused.D. Indifferent.53、 What did David Rubin's research find about misnaming? ______A. It is related to the way our memories work.B. It is a possible indicator of a faulty memory.C. It occurs mostly between kids and their friends.D. It often causes misunderstandings among people.54、 What is most likely the cause of misnaming? ______A. Similar personality traits.B. Similar spellings of names.C. Similar physical appearance.D. Similar pronunciation of names.55、 What did the surveys of more than 1,700 subjects find about misnaming? ______A. It more often than not hurts relationships.B. It hardly occurs across gender boundaries.C. It is most frequently found in extended families.D. It most often occurs within a relationship group.56、Why do mothers misname their children more often than fathers? ______A. They suffer more frustrations.B. They become worn out more often.C. They communicate more with their children.D. They generally take on more work at home.Part Ⅳ TranslationDirections:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes totranslate a passage from Chinese into English.

【参考范文】Overreliance on One’s Mobile PhoneThe picture vividly illustrates a funny dialogue between a boy student and his math teacher. The boy is required to come up with the result of the equation on the blackboard. Instead of working it out on his own, he chooses to turn to the relative math app on his mobile phone.It’s widely acknowledged that students’ overreliance on mobile phones does much harm to their study. Firstly, it takes the place of students’ brainpower, undermining students’ thinking ability. Secondly, it corrupts students’ interest in the process of working out a problem by himself, leading them to the point that they show little enthusiasm in acquiring new knowledge. Finally, it makes students lose their competitiveness in the real world, unable to compete with students who really learn many skills by thinking, reasoning and most importantly by interacting with their teachers and peers.No doubt, overusing mobile phones should be limited in particular in the process teaching and learning in classroom. Only by systematic training of their brain and constant practice by themselves can they accomplish maturity and obtain skills necessary for success in their future life.第二部分听力理解【答案速查】【1-5】 D C A B C【6-10】 D C A D A【11-12】 C C B A C【16-20】 A B C C D【21-25】 C C A A B【26】vital 【27】battle 【28】divert 【29】usage 【30】devices【31】phenomenon 【32】community 【33】electronic 【34】similarly 【35】be beneficial for【听力原文】Section A【1】M: Father’s Day is around the corner and I’m thinking of buying a present for my dad.

What about you?W: Don’t care about me. Just go ahead. I’m not hungry for the time being. I need to have a rest after so exhausting a busy day at work.Q: What will the woman most probably do?【3】M: The young man must have stolen something from that grocery store. See, he’s detained and being questioned by the security guard.W: Not really. He was buying something present in the store when the robbing happened.Q: What do we learn about the young man?【4】W: My head aches after staring at the computer screen for so long. I just can’t keep going with my term paper. M: Do have a rest before continuing with your work. Otherwise, you may have problems with your health before you finish your assignments. Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation?【5】M: How about going to a meal tonight with me, Janet? Then we can discuss how to get money for a new car.W: Ok, no problem. Our car is beyond repair. Let’s get one as soon as possible.Q: What did Janet mean?【6】W: We have to admit that social media is of much necessity. But there’re some problems with its use among the average people. M: Of course. People are just busy using those social media websites. They haven’t realized that they’ve already wasted much time on them.Q: What does the man mean?【7】W: Hi, Mr. Pond, I am so sorry that I fail to finish typing your business letter on time. I mess up your appointment with our business partners. M: Never mind. The appointment has been postponed to the next week. You have plenty of time to get it done. I’m just about to tell you the news. Q: What’s the relationship between the two speakers?【8】W: Mark has been taking six courses this term, but it seems he couldn’t handle them well. He failed four of them in midterm exams. M: Really? He deserves it. He would fare well if he hadn’t spent so much time playing online games. Q: What does the man mean?Conversation OneM: You know, I’m always a fan of pop music, and I enjoy singing. The best travel experience in my life is also related to music and singing.W: Tell me fast. What’s it all about?M: That’s two years ago when I made a trip down to New York to participate in one of music competition.W: Wow, that sounds interesting. As a student in college, it’ll be a brilliant chapter in your life.M: I know, but it took much for me to make it there. In fact, I borrowed money from my friend to buy a plane ticket to get there. I felt uncomfortable with borrowing money from others. W: I can imagine, owing a debt is not a good thing. But, anyway, you finally get to New York.M: Definitely. The competition was wonderful. All the participants enjoyed the competition. All the judges chose only the good comments on the performance of each singer.W: You must have got much encouragement from them to go on with your singing in the future.M: Absolutely. The judges are very encouraging. But the most enjoyable and exciting part of my trip there is that I made a lot of new friends who share the same hobby of singing with me.W: That’s really an unforgettable experience for you.Questions 9 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard.【9】Why did the man leave for New York two years ago?【10】How did the judges respond to the performance of the participants?【11】What impressed the man most during his experience in New York?Conversation TwoW: Here we have Professor Charles Binley with us today. He’s an expert on recruiting and hiring. My first question, Prof. Binley, what is the most frequent error job applicants make during a job interview?M: I’ve been in this field for many years. And I know deep in my heart that job interviews are very stressful to every applicant. However, the first error they tend to make is that they easily get too personal during a job interview.W: Too personal? You mean, they have wrong understanding of the dress code for a job interview?M: No. That means that they talk too much about their personal life stories. You know what, that’ll make the interviewers worry about whether they can keep job-related information in secret in their future job. So, my advice is that, they should avoid voluntarily offering too much personal information, just focusing on job-related topics.W: Good advice. Focus on job-related topics. Other common errors, Professor?M: The second common error is that many interviewees fail to research the company beforehand. Maybe, they’re busy taking part in one job interview after another. There’s no time for them to get enough information about the desired posts. The result is, they don’t know even the basic information about the company. I doubt that any employer prefer someone who knows nothing about what the company is all about.W: Actually, it’s easy for one to do this in this Internet age. One can get tons of information on the web. Isn’t it?M: Yes, it’s simple. But, for every applicant, it’s on the top of a must-to-do list. The last common error I want to expand on is that some applicants are passive in responding to the interviewers’ questions. That’ll make a negative impression on the interviewers. In the deep of their mind, you’ll be regarded as a passive employee in future.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.【12】What’s the first common error made by job interviewees?【13】When you find your intended post in a company, what’re you expected to do?【14】What’s the result of being passive in responding to questions during a job interview?【15】What is mainly talked about by the two speakers?Section BPassage OneMy native land, Denmark, is a poetical land, full of popular traditions, old songs, and an eventful history, which has become bound up with that of Sweden and Norway. The Danish islands are possessed of beautiful woods, and corn fields: they resemble gardens on a great scale. Upon one of these green islands, Funen, stands Odense, the place of my birth. Odense is called after the pagan god Odin, who, as tradition states, lived here: this place is the capital of the province, and lies twenty-two Danish miles from Copenhagen.In the year 1805 there lived here, in a small mean room, a young married couple, who were extremely attached to each other; he was a shoemaker, scarcely twenty-two years old, a man of a richly gifted and truly poetical mind. His wife was ignorant of life and of the world, but possessed a heart full of love.On the second of April, 1805, a living and weeping child was born, and that was me myself, Hans Christian Andersen. During the first day of my existence my father is said to have sat by the bed, but I cried all the time. “Will you go to sleep, or lie there quietly?” it is reported that my father asked in joke. But, I still cried on. And even in the church, when I was taken to be baptized, I cried so loudly that the preacher, who was a passionate man, said, “The young one screams like a cat!” which words my mother never forgot.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.【16】How does the speaker’s hometown get its name?【17】What’s the speaker’s father’s profession?【18】What happened when Hans Anderson was baptized in the church?Passage TwoIn the 1960’s, women engaged 41 hours per week in total unpaid work, such as housework, childcare, family, and other duties, while men did 11 hours per week of total unpaid work. For women, 32 hours of this was dedicated solely to in-home work, while men contributed 4 hours a week solely to in-home work. By the year 2000, women had decreased their housework to 19 hours a week, while men increased their housework to 10 hours a week.However, women still logged 42 hours a week in unpaid labor compared to men’s 21 hours per week of unpaid labor. Interestingly, women may not resent this imbalance when they enjoy the work, and when they and their husbands feel they are especially competent at it. Some researchers do cite past research indicating that this imbalance is likely to be seen as acceptable, but much more of an imbalance is likely to be seen by one of the partners as unfair. After all, the woman performs more than 66% or the man performs more than 36%.The imbalance may be in part “real,” but also in part the result of rating differences. While men and women agree that the man does less housework in their home, wives rate their husbands as contributing 33% to the total housework, while husbands rate themselves as contributing 42%. Differences in ratings depend on who reports the housework, husband for both, wife for both, or husband and wife individually report their own housework, and what home activities are considered “housework”.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.【19】In the 1960s, how many hours did a woman spend on household chores?【20】Why does some woman love doing more housework than men?【21】What results in the differences in rating men’s and women’s share in doing housework?Passage ThreeA 31-year-old financial analyst from Queens fainted in front of an oncoming subway train. She survived but woke up to a whole new reality. “I opened my eyes and it was dark. And I thought I got home and I was waking up from a dream or something,” said Teena Katz, a subway accident victim.It wasn’t a dream. Teena Katz wasn’t home. And somehow, she wasn’t in pain. She was awake, alert, and crushed beneath a No. 7 subway train that broke both her legs.“I looked down and I saw that there was a big cut in my leg and an opening. And immediately I told whoever was speaking to me that I saw it but I wasn’t going to stare at it because I didn’t want to go into shock,” Katz said. That person was a doctor who was shocked to hear the 31-year-old financial analyst apologizing for delaying the train. Katz arrived back home Tuesday after a dozen surgeries and more than two-months in the hospital.Before the accident, her life was filled with activities like softball games, jogging, badminton. Now she faces a future of physical therapy, and necessary medical treatment. Even the mental hurdles are equally difficult to overcome.“I was also very independent. To now need help from someone for everything, is very hard for me,” Katz said. Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.【22】What happened to Teena Katz?【23】What was Teena’s reaction to her wound in her leg?【24】What did Teena say to the doctor who was tending her?【25】How’s Teena’s life now?Section CThe whole world is accepting and adopting the ways towards the advancement of mobile technology.
