As kids, we have relied on it to settle disagreements with friends – from which channel to watch to who gets to eat the last ice cream – all because we think the results are completely random.‎ But are they?‎ Wang Zhijian, PhD, a professor at Zhejiang University, believes that there is a regulation behind this simple game. So, he gathered 360 students, divided them into groups of six and had each group play 300 rounds of rock-paper-scissors, reported USA Today.‎ After the first results, Wang thought he was wrong, because players chose each of the three moves about one-third of the time, suggesting that the game is random after all. However, Wang later noticed a surprising regulation of behavior in the data.‎ When players won a round, they usually stuck to the same choice. But when they lost, they tended to change to a more powerful move. For example, if Player A had just thrown down scissors to beat Player B’s paper, Player A was more likely to throw down scissors again while Player B was likely to choose rock, since rock beats scissors.‎ According to Wang, this might be a function that is called “conditional response”. So, for 9‎ ‎ the next step of his study, as he told BBC, Wang plans to do some research about how human brains make quick decisions when competing.‎ Now that you’ve learned how to predict the moves of your opponent (对手), you’ll have an advantage next time you play rock-paper-scissors with your friends. But there is one problem: make sure they haven’t read about Wang’s study, or your advantage will disappear.‎ ‎21. The underlined word “random” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _________.‎ A. equal B. amusing C. strange D. unpredictable ‎22. Which of the following is TRUE about Wang Zhijian and his study?‎ A. He found a new game theory called “conditional response”.‎ B. He asked 360 students to play a total of 300 rounds of rock-paper-scissors.‎ C. By studying the first few results, he discovered the pattern behind the game.‎ D. His study suggests that the belief that rock-paper-scissors game is random is wrong.‎ ‎23. According to the study, if player A has just used rock to beat player B’s scissors, then A is more likely to choose _________ and B is more likely to choose _________.‎ A. rock; paper B. rock; scissors C. scissors; rock D. paper; scissors ‎24. What will Wang study about rock-paper-scissors in the future, according to the article?‎ A. The functions related to the game that are planted into our brains.‎ B. How human brains make quick decisions when competing in the game.‎ C. The psychology behind the players who always win the game.‎ D. How to improve players’ ability to predict opponents’ moves.‎ B ‎“BAKG!” the door caused a reverberation(回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and I on the other side.‎ ‎ We were both in great anger. "Never set foot in this house again!" stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.‎ The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I walked aimlessly.‎ A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.‎ But now ... I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old.  We differ in our ways of thinking. He always puts his opinions of behavior on me. Whenever I do something wrong, he never admits it. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.‎ I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that all the lights still on.‎ I thought to myself: "Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?" ‎ In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. I can’t stand his outrageous(蛮横的)words: “ I can’t throw you away, let alone these old papers?”‎ All the lights were off except father’s.‎ Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret. After an argument he has the habit of creeping up in my sleep and then tucking me underneath the covers.‎ This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what 9‎ ‎ to do has become his second nature.‎ The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe… With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love---it’s second to none.‎ ‎25. Decide which is the best order of the following according to what happened in the passage.‎ ‎ a. I opened the door and entered the house ‎ b. Sadly I ran out into the street ‎ c. I reached the place where I lived and saw my house still brightly lit.‎ ‎ d. I thought of my father’s kindness towards me ‎ e. I walked about in the street without any aim A. b, e, d, c, a B. b, e, c, d, a C. b, e, a, c, d D. b, e , c, a, d ‎26. What made the writer think of his childhood?‎ ‎ A. The sight of the street lights ‎ B. The sight of the empty street ‎ C. The sight of a father with a child in his arms ‎ D. The sight of light in his own house ‎27. Why do you think the father often shouts at his son?‎ ‎ A. perhaps the father is getting older and older ‎ B. perhaps the son has already grown up ‎ C. perhaps they never agree with each other ‎ D. perhaps the father has got used to doing that ‎28. What conclusion can you come to after reading the passage?‎ ‎ A. The father treats his son in an unfair way ‎ B. The father is actually kind to his son ‎ C. The father is neither kind nor cruel to his son ‎ D. The father is always finding fault with his son C I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eight grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.    ‎ Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.    ‎ Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even 9‎ ‎ if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test. ‎ ‎29. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because ____ .   ‎ A. she had not brought a pen with her          ‎ B. she had lost her own on her way to school   ‎ C. there was something wrong with her own    ‎ D. her own had been taken away by someone ‎30. The thing(s) emphasized in her talk was(were) ____ .   ‎ A. honesty            B. sense of duty         C. seriousness         D. all of the above ‎31. The boy knew everything__________.‎ ‎ A. the moment he was asked to stay behind ‎ B. when the teacher started talking about honesty ‎ C. only some time later ‎ D. when he was walking out of the room D Many of us mistakenly believe that it's wrong to think we have any good qualities. We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self criticism is the key to improving our performance. However, a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed（有缺陷）? ‎ If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you．The person who doesn't like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shy．Perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time.‎ Don't take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities. In fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least many factors that will work in your favor with someone else.‎ You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life. There are many people who don’t mind your extra pounds. You may drive a shabby car, but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. There are people out there looking for loyalty, or fun, or sweetness, or wisdom, and the package it comes in is not important. If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. You can decide to feel inferior（自卑） because you don't have much money and you don't drive a nice car. You can believe that this is the reason that you don't have many friends in your life. On the other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious that everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes you as a person. ‎ The point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe it's the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any. ‎ ‎32. According to the author ___________ plays an important role in making friends ‎ A. admitting your shortcomings B. self criticism C. modesty D. confidence ‎33. If you are not liked by a person, _________ ‎ A. you should find the reason in yourself B. you’d better talk with the person face to face C. you may not be the one to be blamed 9‎ D. you and that person misunderstand each other ‎34. We can learn from the third paragraph that ____________  ‎ A. your good qualities may turn out to be your flaws B. your weakness may also be your strengths in some way C. your negative qualities cause a person to reject you D. you’ll have few friends if your flaws are bigger than your good qualities ‎35. Which of the following is true according to the author?‎ A. It is important to lose weight ‎ B. It is easier for a wealthy person to make friends C. Inner qualities are more important than physical appearance D. If you are not beautiful enough, try to improve your physical beauty 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。‎ Seven ways to find out what you really want in life Be good to yourself You can’t pinpoint(准确指出) exactly what you want in life .You’re constantly sacrificing（牺牲） your time and dreams for other people. 36 Ask yourself: if you weren’t tied down by your job, family, or anything else, then what would you be doing right now? ‎ Regret nothing To be good to yourself is not selfish. It’s your life. It’s time for you to live it exactly the way you want to. If you constantly regret things you did or didn’t do in the past, then you won’t be able to move forward. 37 ‎ Figure out what you need Sometimes it’s hard to figure out what you need. Sit down and think about what you need most. The freedom to express yourself? Love? Financial security? Something else? If it helps, you can make a list. Also think about the kind of legacy(遗产) you want to leave behind.‎ ‎ 38 ‎ You can fly only by pushing back against something you don’t want. Figure out what upsets you, and be specific about it. Don’t just say that you hate your office job. Pinpoint exactly why you hate it. Could it be your strict boss? Your workload? Your meaningless job title? Or all of the above?‎ Determine what makes you truly happy There’s no life to waste if you’re happy with living it. 39 Being around children? Is it traveling? Owning a successful business? Financial freedom? Once you pinpoint the one thing that makes you happy the most, you’ll have a pretty clear idea of what you should struggle hard to get in your life. Let people around you know what you’re trying to achieve. Don’t keep your goals and desires to yourself. Voice it all out! If you tell people what you’re trying to accomplish, they will most likely support you and give you new ideas. Sometimes mother does know best!‎ Stay positive Life doesn’t always go how you want it. Don’t feel discouraged as your plans stray(偏离). Take control. Instead of being anxious, try your best to advance with the changes. You will get there someday. 40 You’re just taking a little detour(绕道). ‎ A. Don’t live in the past but live in the present!‎ B. Sometimes a positive attitude is all you need to keep going.‎ C. Determine what really bothers you.‎ 9‎ D. Think about what makes you happy.‎ E. You have to put yourself first, because if you don’t, then no one else will.‎ F. Determine what you are going to do next.‎ G. You should think of things carefully.‎ 第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空 （共20小题，每小题1.5分，共30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。‎ I could have easily gone through life without getting to know one of the most romantic feelings----love for a dog.‎ For at least ten years my   41    had been suggesting that we get a dog.
