In modern usage, it is often stated as an indirect way of asking what someone is thinking about.‎ This phrase is basically a proposal (提议), and the speaker is offering to pay to hear the listener’s thoughts. It is an idiom, of course, and not meant literally (字面上的) so no real payment generally takes place.‎ When the saying originated, a penny was worth a lot more than it is in the 21st century. Therefore, “a penny for your thoughts” likely indicated the thoughts were more valuable to those asking the listener for them than they are by today’s standards. This loss of value can be used ironically(讽刺地), however, through tone(语气) of voice; it can be used to indicate that someone’s idea is bad or worth a penny in modern value.‎ The phrase is generally credited to a man by the name of John Heywood, who was born sometime just before the 16th century. During his life, he was a writer who penned many plays and a book in 1546, later known as The Proverbs of John Heywood. It is likely Heywood did not actually come up with the phrase “a penny for your thoughts”. Rather, he was simply the first person to have set the phrase down in written form. The actual origins of the term are unknown, and since his book was simply a collection of common idioms and expressions, it was probably familiar to people in the mid 1500s.‎ Another phrase similar to “a penny for your thoughts” is offering “your two cents” after making a statement. Someone might give his or her opinion and then say, “that’s my two cents,” to indicate the value of his or her idea. While, much like a penny, “two cents” is relatively low in value now, it would have been more valuable at one time and the expression is used in much the same way.‎ ‎4．When someone says “a penny for your thoughts”, he or she ___________.‎ A．wants to ask you for advice B．considers your thoughts unique C．is curious about what’s on your mind D．will pay for what you’re thinking about ‎5．The modern meaning of “a penny for your thoughts” ____________.‎ A．is more closely connected to the value of the penny B．can differ greatly according to a speaker’s manner C．can confuse the listener easily D．is more popularly accepted ‎6．In what way is Heywood related to the phrase “a penny for your thoughts”?‎ A．He came up with it while he was writing.‎ B．He helps to explain the origins of it.‎ C．He contributed to the wide use of it.‎ D．He was the first person to use it.‎ ‎7．What do we know about the phrase “your two cents”?‎ A．It is usually used at the end of a statement.‎ B．It comes from “a penny for your thoughts”.‎ C．It has witnessed some changes since the 16th century.‎ D．It is more familiar to people than “a penny for your thoughts”.‎ C Harry is eighteen now. He studies in a middle school. His parents like him very much and hope he can become a famous man. So they often tell him to study hard and they do all for him. They call him at six in the morning, after breakfast his father takes him to school in a car and in the afternoon, as soon as the young man comes back, the supper is ready. Of course, he never washes his clothes or goes to buy something in the shops.‎ Once Harry’s father was sent to London on business. He would stay there for half a year. Leaving, he told his wife to take good care of their son. The woman had to get up earlier and did all what her husband did before. And two months later she was so tired that she was ill in bed. Now the young man got into trouble. He couldn’t do any housework. He had to do as his mother told him. Even he didn’t know where to get on the bus!‎ Yesterday Harry’s mother found his shoes were worn out and told him to buy a new pair in the shop. But he didn’t know how to choose. The woman had a sigh(叹息) and gave him a shoe pattern(鞋样) and told him to buy a pair of shoes himself. It’s Saturday today and Harry doesn’t go to school. With a policeman’s help, he found a shop. The shopkeeper was friendly to him. The man brought a lot of shoes and asked him to choose. When he was trying on a pair, suddenly he remembered something and took them off. The man was surprised and asked, “What’s the matter, young man?”‎ ‎“I’m sorry. I’ve left the shoe pattern at home!”‎ ‎8．Harry’s parents do all instead of him because _______.‎ A．he’s too young B．he has poor health C．he’s busy with his studies D．they hope he spends all time on studies ‎9．The woman had to look after her son by herself because _______.‎ A．her husband wasn’t at home B．she was stronger than her husband C．she knew the young man well D．she was freer than her husband ‎10．When the man was in London, _______.‎ A．Harry had to stay at home B．Harry didn’t find the bus stop C．Harry fell behind in his class D．Harry wouldn’t go to school ‎11．The woman told her son to buy a pair of shoes because _______.‎ A．she didn’t know what kind he needed B．she was busy with the housework C．something was wrong with her D．she wanted her son to do something himself D ‎ The next time you need to get somewhere, you may be able to follow your nose. A study has found that a strong sense of smell is associated with a strong sense of direction.‎ Researchers conducted an experiment at McGill University in Canada. Fifty-seven adults were invited to participate in a virtual"way-finding task"in which they had to make their way around a virtual environment. They were given 20 minutes to learn about the virtual city. After having passed by each of eight landmarks at least twice, the participants were placed in front of one of the landmarks and asked to find the most direct route to one assigned by the researchers.‎ The participants also smelled 40 scented（有香气的）pens one at a time. After a brief sniff, the participants chose one word that best identified the smell from four words on a screen.‎ An additional exercise used a virtual maze（迷宫）to determine if the participants were more likely to rely on landmarks to find the way or if they used a more habit-based method built over time as people travelled the same route over and over again.‎ What the researchers found was that those with the ability to correctly identify the smells of the pens also had the easiest time performing the way-finding task by way of landmarks. A strong sense of smell was not identified in the participants who used the more habit-based method.‎ The connection between the sense of smell and way-finding likely came about as a result of the evolution of the nervous system. The original function of the sense of smell in humans may have been intended to support our spatial memory.‎ Keep that in mind the next time you get lost going to the dentist. It won't prevent you from getting horribly lost, but it's good food for thought along the way.‎ ‎12．How did the researchers carry out the study?‎ A．By using typical landmarks in a real city.‎ B．By combining virtual tests with real-life tests.‎ C．By testing different senses in a virtual environment.‎ D．By collecting routine observation data from the participants.‎ ‎13．What were the participants asked to do after they smelled a scented pen?‎ A．Decide whether they liked the smell.‎ B．Use a sentence to describe the smell.‎ C．Choose a suitable word for the smell.‎ D．Find the landmark that featured the smell.‎ ‎14．Which of the following factors is better related to a strong sense of direction according to paragraph 5?‎ A．The way of using landmarks.‎ B．More experience in describing things.‎ C．Quick adjustment to the virtual world.‎ D．A more habit-based way-finding method.‎ ‎15．The meaning of the word "spatial" underlined in Paragraph 6 relates to _____.‎ A．the situation B．the position C．the spirit D．the time 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ A: Hi, Mary! 16 ‎ B: No, they aren’t. 17 ‎ A: Is the dictionary hers, too? ‎ B: 18 , It’s mine.‎ A: 19 ?‎ B: It’s mine, too.‎ A: Can I borrow(借) your pencil?‎ B:Yes.‎ A: 20 ‎ B:You’re welcome.‎ A.
