A textbook.‎ B ‎ Most people say that most people have not more than 30 friends at any given time, and 400 over the whole of their lives. However, on social networking sites, most users have about 150 friends. If these numbers are correct, then friendship means different things in different situations.‎ Also, there are no rules about friendship. There are no instructions about how to make friends, how to keep friendships going, and how to finish friendships if we want to move on. People have very different opinions about this: some people would die for their friends and they value them more than family. Others say that friends are temporary, only there to help each other until they are no longer needed. If people with such different views become friends, this can lead to problems.‎ Because of these different definitions of friendship, it is easy to be unhappy about our friendships. We may want them to be deeper or closer, or we may want to have more friends in our lives. Sometimes we simply do not have the lime to develop our friendships, or we fear we have left it too late in life to start. If we move to another country or city, we have to find ways, to make new friends again.‎ This dissatisfaction shows us how important friendships are for most of us. We should not think that it could be too late to build friendships. We also need to understand that the need to be around other people is one that is shared by many. Therefore, we should not be too frightened about starting to talk to people who in the future may become our friends: it is likely that they too would like to get closer to us. Remember what people say: strangers are friends we have not met yet.‎ ‎25. According to the text, how many friends do the majority of people probably have?‎ A. 400 internet friends in their whole lives.‎ B. .Over 400 friends in their whole lives.‎ C. 30 friends or fewer at a certain stage.‎ D. 150 internet friends at a certain stage.‎ ‎26. What is the main idea of paragraph 2?‎ A. Friendships mean different things to different people.‎ B. People with different views can become friends.‎ C. Some people would die for their friends if they need to.‎ D. There is a rule about making friends. ‎ ‎27. We can learn from the text that most of us ________.‎ A. need to be with others B. build friendships late in life C. are dissatisfied with our friends D are frightened to talk to people ‎ ‎28. What is the author’s attitude towards talking to a stranger?‎ A. Uninterested B. Doubtful C. Positive D. Cautious C It’s true that quite a few most respected scientific authorities have confirmed that the world is becoming hotter and hotter. There’s also strong evidence that humans are contributing to the warming. Countless recent reports have proved the same thing. For instance, a 2010 summary about the climate science by the Royal Society noted that: “The global warming over the last half - century has been caused mainly by human activity.”‎ You may not believe that humans could change the planet’s climate, but the basic science is well understood. Each year, billions of tons of greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere because of human activity. As has been known for years, these gases hold heat that would otherwise escape to space, wrapping the planet in an invisible blanket.‎ Of course, the earth’s climate has always been changing due to “natural” factors such as volcanic eruption or changes in solar, or cycles concerning the Earth’s going around the sun. According to the scientific research, however, the warming observed by now matches the pattern of warming we would expect from a build-up of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere---not the warming we would expect from other possible causes.‎ Even if scientists did discover another reasonable explanation for the warming recorded so far, that would give birth to a difficult question. As Robert Henson puts it: “If some newly discovered factor is to blame for the climate change, then why aren’t carbon dioxide and the other greenhouse gases producing the warming that basic physics tells us they should be?”‎ The only way to prove with 100% certainty that humans are responsible for global warming would be to run an experiment with two identical Earths---one with human influence and one without. That obviously isn’t possible, and so most scientists are careful not to state human influence as an absolute certainty.‎ ‎29. The text is developed by ________.‎ A. giving typical examples B. analyzing a theory and arguing it C. comparing and finding differences D. following the order of space ‎30. Which of the following is not the cause of climate change?‎ A. volcanic eruption B. cycles concerning the Earth’s going around the sun C. changes in solar D. floods and droughts ‎31. The underline word ‘‘identical” in the last paragraph probably means ________.‎ A. totally different B. exactly the same C. extremely important D. partly independent ‎32. Which of the following can be the best title?‎ A. What’s the Relation of Global Warming and Greenhouse Gases?‎ B. Are All the Scientists Really Scientific?‎ C. Where Is Global Warming Leading Us to?‎ D. Are Humans Definitely Causing Global Warming?‎ D The old traditional saying about sleeping with one eye open in an unfamiliar place may not be too far off the mark. Over the course of three experiments on 35young and healthy volunteers, researchers in a new study measured brain activity during two continuous nights of sleep.‎ Sasaki and colleagues performed a series of lab tests by stimulating the left and then the right hemisphere（大脑的半球）with sounds. On the second night, there wasn’t any difference in reactions to tests between the left and right hemispheres, even during deep sleep. This suggests that there is a first-night-only effect specifically in one hemisphere of the brain during deep sleep, the authors conclude. The way participants responded to the sleep lab tests points to the potential for the brain to be on high alert for danger during the first night in unfamiliar surroundings. While this may be bad news for business travelers who regularly make brief overnight trips, it may not be as troublesome for people who go away for longer periods of time, Sasaki added by email. “Frequent travel may lead to unrestful sleep,” Sasaki said. “But if you stay for a few days at the same place, your sleep might catch up.”‎ Some birds have been found to actually sleep with one eye open and one side of the brain awake when they’re in a dangerous setting, and some marine mammals have similar abilities, the authors note. But the new study focuses on healthy volunteers but not people with insomnia or other sleep disorders, the authors note.‎ ‎“The clinical implications haven’t been confirmed at the moment,” Finan, a psychiatry （精神医学）and behavioral health researcher said. “However, the level of specificity provided by these analyses could be an important first step in understanding what sleep disorders like insomnia(失眠) arise from, which is thought to be driven in many patients by continuing having a lot of worries.”‎ ‎33. What do the underlined words “may not be too far off the mark” in Paragraph 1 mean?‎ A. May be ridiculous. B. May make sense.‎ C. May cause arguments. D. May be disturbing.‎ ‎34. What can we know from Paragraph 3?‎ A. People are used to waking up and going to bed early when travelling.‎ B. Business travelers usually have a brief sleep at night.‎ C. It takes time for people to adapt themselves to a new environment.‎ D. It brings much trouble to those who stay far away from their homes.‎ ‎35. According to Finan, the study is helpful in ________.‎ A. offering ways to free the patients from the suffering of sleep disorders B. telling the effect of worries on sleep disorders C. comforting as many patients with sleep disorders as possible D. finding out the root cause of sleep disorders 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。‎ Stress occurs when you assume that demands placed on you such as work, school or relationships go beyond your ability to deal with. 36 . It can provide the drive and energy to help people get through situations like exams or work deadlines. However, an extreme amount of stress can have health consequences, including anxiety, insomnia, muscle pain, high blood pressure and a weakened immune system. Here are some healthy techniques to help reduce stress in the short and long term.‎ ‎ 37 . It may seem difficult to get away from a big work project, a crying baby or a growing credit card bill.
