If you were going to 26 now in your future best self, where would you put your time and your 27 ?‎ ‎ We're 28 told to lean into work, to push harder and achieve more. The 29 are filled with stories of people who are rich and famous. We 30 those stories and get the 31 that these are the things that we need to 32 in order to have a good life. But is that true?‎ ‎ The clearest message we get from a 75-year study is this: Good relationships keep us happier and healthier.‎ ‎ We've learned three big lessons about relationships. The first is that social 33 are really good for us, and that 34 kills. It turns out that people who are more socially connected to family, to friends, to community, are happier. They're usually 35 healthier and they live longer than people who are 36 well connected.‎ ‎ And we know that you can be lonely in a crowd and you can be lonely in a marriage, so the second big lesson that we learned is that it's not just the 37 of friends you have, and it's not whether or not you're in a(n) 38 relationship, but it's the quality of your close relationships that 39 .‎ ‎ It turns out that living in the midst of conflict is really bad for our health. High-conflict marriages, for example, without much affection, turn out to be very bad for our health, perhaps worse than getting divorced. And living in the midst of good, warm relationships is protective.‎ ‎ So the message that good, close relationships are good for our health and well-being is wisdom that's as old as the 41 . It's also lifelong. The people in our 75-year study with the happiest 42 were the people who had 43 worked to ‎ replace workmates with new playmates. Just like the people in that recent survey, many of our men when they were 44 out as young adults really believed that fame and wealth and high achievement were what they needed to pursue to have a good life. But over and over, over these 75 years, our study has shown that the people who had a happier life were the people who leaned into 45 , with family, with friends, with community.‎ ‎ For that, the good life is built with good relationships. And that’s an idea worth spreading.‎ ‎26.A. describe B. imagine C. invest D. invent ‎27.A. energy B. regulation C. devotion D. consumption ‎28.A. constantly B. scarcely C. accidentally D. seriously ‎29.A. newspapers B. advertisements C. media D. announcements ‎30.A. doubt B. accumulate C. acquire D. believe ‎31.A. expectation B. imagination C. memory D. impression ‎32.A. go over B. go through C. go after D. go off ‎33.A. involvement B. participation C. connections D. civilization ‎34.A. loneliness B. competition C. companion D. disturbance ‎35.A. physically B. possibly C. slightly D. sharply ‎36.A. far B. less C. fewer D. still ‎37.A. quality B. kind C. number D. purity ‎38.A. embarrassing B. envious C. relaxing D. committed ‎39.A. matters B. affects C. counters D. prevents ‎40.A. take B. count C. look D. trust ‎41.A. houses B. hills C. rivers D. roads ‎42.A. year B. process C. retirement D. profession ‎43.A. actively B. negatively C. passively D. privately ‎44.A. holding B. starting C. putting D. giving ‎45.A. preparations B. relationships C. justice D. reception 第四部分 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下列短文，然后从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A Travelling Brochure ‎ Travelling Information in Melbourne, Australia ‎ Tour Name: Phillip Island, Penguins, Koalas and Kangaroos ‎ Price: Starting from AUD $115 per person.‎ l Tour Highlights ² Visit Warrook, a working cattle farm.

A new method for detecting a whole range of pesticides in bees could help explain the mystery behind the widespread decline of honeybees in recent years, and help develop an approach to saving them.‎ ‎ Honeybees are under threat globally: in the US, dramatic declines in bee populations due to a condition called colony collapse disorder(CCD) continues to put crops at risk and farmers out of business. Several studies have shown a link between pesticide use and bee deaths, and the European Union has banned the use of neonicotinoid(烟碱类) pesticides.‎ ‎ But it's not as simple as banning one pesticide that's killing bees; Scientists are still trying to figure out exactly what's happening. In the new study, researchers from the National Veterinary Research Institute in Poland have developed a method for analyzing 200 pesticides at the same time, to figure out what's really putting honeybees at risk.‎ ‎ "Bee health is a matter of public concern--bees are considered critically important for the environment and agriculture by pollinating(对…授粉) more than 80% of crops and wild plants in Europe," said Tomasz Kiljanek, lead author of the study from the National Veterinary Research Institute in Poland. "We wanted to develop a test for a large number of pesticides currently approved for use in the European Union to see what is poisoning the bees."‎ ‎ With so many pesticides currently in use, it's difficult to work out which ones are harming the bees. Certain combinations of pesticides, or their use over time, could affect honeybees in different ways. In order to understand what's really going on, we need to know which pesticides at what concentration levels are present in honeybees.‎ ‎ Kiljanek and the team used a method called QuEChERS, which is currently used to detect pesticides in food. With this analysis, they could test poisoned bees for 200 different pesticides simultaneously, as well as several additional compounds created when the pesticides were broken down. About 98% of the pesticides they tested for are approved for use in the European Union.‎ ‎ The team used the method to investigate more than 70 honeybee poisoning incidents. Their findings revealed 57 different pesticides present in the bees--it's a toxic puzzle they hope their new method will help solve.‎ ‎ "This is just the beginning of our research on the impact of pesticides on honeybee health," said Kiljanek. "Honeybee poisoning incidents are the tip of the iceberg. Even at very low levels, pesticides can weaken bees' defense systems, allowing parasites or viruses to kill them. Our results will help expand our knowledge about the influence of pesticides on honeybee health, and will provide important information for other researchers to better assess the risk connected with the mix of current used pesticides."‎ ‎49.What’s the main idea of the passage?‎ ‎ A. European bee colonies are on the decline in recent years ‎ B. A new method has been developed to test poisons in bees ‎ C. Farmers are banned from using pesticides on crops by the EU ‎ D. New pesticides have been invented to kill parasites harmful to bees ‎50.We can infer from Paragraph 5 that .‎ ‎ A. the breaking down of pesticides is controllable ‎ B. not all pesticides tested are approved for use by the EU ‎ C. the relationship between pesticide use and bee deaths is complex ‎ D. it is the mix of pesticides that has the most harmful effects bees ‎51.By adopting QuEChERS, scientists could .‎ ‎ A. locate bees in fields quickly ‎ B. find which pesticides threaten crops at present ‎ C. analyze a lot of different pesticides at the same time ‎ D. understand how bees pollinate crops and wild plants C ‎ The family does not feature heavily in the culture of the Ik of Northern Uganda. In fact, as far as the Ik are concerned, the family means very little. This is because the Ik face a daily struggle to survive in the face of drought, famine and starvation. Anyone who cannot take care of himself or herself is regarded as a useless burden by the Ik and a threat to the survival of the others. So the old are abandoned to die. Sick and disabled children are abandoned too. The Ik attitude is that, as long as you keep the breeding group alive, you can always get more children.‎ ‎ Ik mothers throw their children out of the village compound when they are 3 years old, to defend for themselves. I imagine children must be rather relieved to be thrown out, for in the process of being cared for, he or she is reluctantly carried about in a hide sling(背婴儿带) wherever the mother goes. Whenever the mother is in her ‎ field, she loosens the sling and lets the baby to the ground none too slowly, and laughs if it is hurt. Then she goes about her business, leaving the child there, almost hoping that some fierce animals will come along and carry it off. This sometimes happens. Such behaviour does not endear children to their parents or parents to their children.‎ ‎ Many of you probably reacted to the Ik with some horror and shock. It is very tempting to conclude that these people are primitive, savage and inhuman, and that their concept of the ‘family’ is deeply wrong. However, sociologists argue that it is wrong to simply judge such societies and their family arrangements as unnatural and untypical. We need to understand that such arrangements may have positive functions. In the case of the Ik, with the exceptional circumstances they find themselves in--drought and famine--their family arrangements help ensure the survival of the tribe.‎ ‎ Moreover, some of you may have concluded that British family life and the Ik have some things in common. British family is not universally experienced as positive for all family members. For some members of our own society--for young and old alike--family life may be characterized by violence, abuse and isolation.‎ ‎ The problem with studying the family is that we all think we are experts. This is not surprising, considering that most of us are born in families and socialized into family roles and responsibilities. It is an institution most of us feel very comfortable with and regard as ‘natural’. For many of us, it is a cornerstone of our social world, a place to which we can retreat and take refuge from the stresses of the outside world. It is the place in which we are loved for who we are, rather than what we are. Family living and family events are probably the most important aspects of our lives. It is no wonder that we tend to hold very fierce, emotional, and perhaps irrational, views about family life and how it ought to be organized. Such ‘taken for granted’ views make it very difficult for us to objectively examine family arrangements that differ from our own experience--such as those of the Ik--without making critical judgements.‎ ‎52. Which of the following ideas do the Ik hold according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. The family is the centre of their life ‎ B. The old are the luxuries they should treasure ‎ C. Their children should be abandoned when born ‎ D. The survival of the tribe is what they should strive for ‎53. Which of the following will the author probably agree with in the case of Ik?‎ ‎ A. The children are a great burden to their family ‎ B. Mothers prefer to carry their children here and there ‎ C. The children enjoy warm relationship with their parents ‎ D. Many children should be left at the mercy of fierce animals in the field ‎54. All of the following statements support “family is the cornerstone” EXCEPT that .‎ ‎ A. we turn to family as our harbour in heart ‎ B. we find we love and are loved in the family ‎ C. we believe family is the top priority in our life ‎ D. we pour our bad mood upon our family members ‎55. The author writes this passage to tell us .‎ ‎ A. family life has various positive functions ‎ B. the idea of family is universally accepted ‎ C. the family is evolving with the time at a high speed ‎ D. we should examine the concept of family objectively D ‎ Across the rich world, governments with ageing populations are worried about soaring health-care costs. In Britain this week David Cameron announced yet another reorganization of the National Health Service. But the problem is most severe in America. Medical spending per head has nearly tripled since 1990, yet most indicators of health have barely budged. And the rising cost of health care depresses wages--because many Americans receive health insurance from their employers, who therefore pay them less.‎ ‎ Help may be at hand. Avoiding waste, innovators in China and India are making medical devices that are cheaper than their Western equivalents. Companies in China and India serve home markets that include vast numbers of people for whom every yuan or rupee counts. So these companies focus relentlessly(不懈地) on reducing costs. They create products that have only their essentials: scanners that cost $10,000 rather than $100,000; portable electrocardiographs(心电图仪) that cost $500 instead of $5,000.‎ ‎ These devices are not merely cheap copies of Western designs. Often they are just as effective as the gold-plated kit used in the West, yet they are rarely found in rich-world hospitals. Their absence helps explain the massive disparity in costs ‎ between Western and emerging-world treatments. A night in an American hospital typically costs 25 times as much as a night in an Indian, Brazilian or Chinese one; a night in a European hospital typically costs four times as much.‎ ‎ Western medical-device firms are well aware of eastern innovation. Indeed, firms such as GE Healthcare, Philips and Medtronic are investing heavily in China and India: setting up research centres, hiring local talent and developing plain inventions of their own, which they gleefully sell both locally and in other emerging markets. However, they are not rushing to market such thrifty ingenuity back in America or Europe.‎ ‎ Two main factors keep cheap devices out of Western markets. One is the muting(消音) of price signals. Health care is not an efficient market in the rich world because--be it in Europe, where the state typically pays the bills, or in America, where private insurance companies do--the customer does not have to shop around. Patients neither know nor care how much anything costs, so they demand the best of everything, which is wonderful for the makers of hugely expensive equipment.‎ ‎ A second factor--which applies more in America than in Europe--is red tape. America’s Food and Drug Administration(FDA) is excessively risk-averse: it often takes twice as long to approve a new medical technology as European regulators do. America’s confusing approvals process blocks upstart medical-technology firms, since they typically lack the deep pockets and army of experts required to navigate it. And for a device to succeed in America, it must be blessed not just by the FDA but also by the bureaucrats who oversee Medicare and Medicaid, the two huge government health-care schemes. Obtaining that blessing can take years.‎ ‎ Just as the appearance of cheap, well-engineered Japanese cars disrupted Western car markets, so the rise of frugal technology could transform the market for medical devices. Western politicians need to encourage this to happen. By turning their governments into better purchasers and by eliminating the barriers that discourage the sale of cheap technology in the rich world, they could bring down the cost of health care. That should earn them the gratitude of patients, taxpayers and workers--in other words, voters. ‎ ‎56.Accoring to the passage, why do American employers pay their staff less than before?‎ ‎ A. The employees’ state of health is declining and lowers their efficiency ‎ B. The health-care costs the employers pay for their staff increase ‎ C. Ageing population imposes a great challenge on their employers ‎ D. The government’s reorganization scheme has an effect on the employers’ benefit ‎57.The underlined word “disparity” in Paragraph 3 means .‎ ‎ A. a great similarity B. a noticeable change ‎ C. the same amount D. a noticeable difference ‎58.The health-care costs in Western countries are much higher than those in the developing world partly because .‎ ‎ A. most of the Western medical devices are gold-plated ‎ B. the Western hospitals have no cheap effective medical devices ‎ C. the Western medical designs are often copied by the developing world ‎ D. western governments pay most of the medical bills ‎59.Why aren’t Western medical-device firms which invest in some Asian markets rushing to market their cheap inventions to America or Europe?‎ ‎ A. Patients in America or Europe are not willing to use cheap medical devices ‎ B. They are not permitted to sell local-produced medical devices to America or Europe ‎ C. They take Asian markets as test sites to check the effect of the cheap medical devices ‎ D. Their cheap medical devices are poor in curative effects ‎60.What’s the author’s attitude towards America’s approval process for a new medical technology?‎ ‎ A. Approving B. Indifferent C. Opposed D. Vague 第II卷 第五部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ ‎ 请认真阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。‎ ‎ Adolescent egocentrism is teens’ and older teens’ belief that others pay close attention to how they behave and what they look like. That is, egocentric adolescents believe that all eyes are on them all the time. Adolescent egocentrism is a developmentally normal cognitive limitation. It usually appears around 11 or 12‎ ‎ years old and fades away around 15 or 16 years old.‎ ‎ Adolescent egocentrism is the basis of much common behavior. For instance, adolescents often spend hours dressing themselves up because they think everyone will notice it if they don’t look good. They also become highly upset when they experience a minor embarrassment, such as dropping their dinner plate in the cafeteria, because they think everyone has seen it and will remember it forever.‎ ‎ All teenagers naturally experience some degree of adolescent egocentrism as part of their cognitive development. In turn, being egocentric may support their personality development and growth. Egocentric thinking may encourage adolescents to break away from their family and to form unique identities, a process called individuation. This is important because individuation is one of the primary goals of adolescence.‎ ‎ While it can be difficult to parent a teen who thinks all eyes are on him/her, parents must be patient and join in with their child to go through this phase of life by being supportive and understanding. Because adolescence is the time when your child goes from a concept to a concrete personality, just allow him/her to work out the small differences of his/her character traits under your supervision without too much pushback. While it will make you upset, it’s a good preparation for his/her adulthood and for facing the world on his/her own.‎ ‎ Egocentric thinking encourages individuation through the two elements of egocentrism: the personal fable and the imaginary audience. The personal fable is an adolescent’s belief that he is special and unique. It aids individuation by encouraging the adolescent to think about himself as a separate entity instead of as a member of the family unit. The imaginary audience causes the adolescent to believe peers are checking and commenting on his every move. Like the personal fable, this strong self-awareness makes the adolescent focus on himself as a distinct and autonomous being.‎ ‎ It may not be fun to have an egocentric adolescent in your house. After all, who wants to be around someone who thinks he is both extraordinary and being watched? But it can be sure that your child’s personality will be better in the long run. Just be aware that problem behavior may arise from egocentric thinking, including substance use, risk taking, eating disorders, etc. and be prepared to intervene(介入) if necessary, and always be the parent your child needs you to be.‎ Adolescent egocentrism The concept of adolescent egocentrism l Adolescent egocentrism refers to teens’ belief that anything about them, including their (1) and appearance, is always being watched by others.‎ l As a normal part of a child’s cognitive development, adolescent egocentrism is (2) .‎ Problems with adolescent egocentrism l It causes a teenager to (3) too much about his or her looks l It makes a teenager (4) to even a minor embarrassment ‎(5) of adolescent egocentrism l It is good for a teenager’s personality development and growth.‎ l It contributes to the (6) of a teenager’s unique identity.‎ Suggestions for parents l Be patient and offer help whenever necessary l ‎(7) small changes in your child’s character traits Elements of adolescent egocentrism l Teenagers believe they are special and unique, thus (8) themselves as a separate entity.‎ l Teenagers are afraid of being judged by their peers, thus getting (9) on being distinct and autonomous.‎ Summary l Adolescent egocentrism may be problematic, requiring parents to be always (10) and get ready to intervene if necessary.‎ 第六部分 单词拼写（共12空格；每空格0.5分，满分6分）‎ ‎ 根据句子的意思及英文首字母或中文提示，写出英文单词。‎ ‎1.There is nothing a about Australians’ love of sport.

However, distracted driving, which is the most important cause, is to blame for 40% of all traffic accidents.‎ ‎ Talking on the phone, texting, eating, reading and watching videos while driving are just some of the ways drivers get distracted behind the wheel. According to scientific study, drivers who use a hand-held device are 4 times more likely to get into a car accident than drivers who pay attention to the road ahead.‎ ‎ As for how to deal with distracted driving, from my perspective, to begin with, drivers may as well put their electronic devices away to avoid using them. Additionally, drivers can turn their cellphone off or switch it to silent mode before ‎ they start the engine. What’s more, they’d better avoid eating or drinking on the road. Only in these ways can they focus on their driving.‎ ‎ ‎
