A happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit.‎ When he arrived, he bounced(跳) happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1,000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1,000 great smiles just as warm and friendly. As he left the house, he thought to himself,“This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit often.”‎ In this same town, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1,000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1,000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself,“This is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again.”‎ All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see on the faces of the people you meet? ‎ ‎25. Why was the first dog surprised when he entered the house?‎ ‎ A. Because he was always in a mixed mood.‎ ‎ B. Because he saw so many dogs smiling at him.‎ ‎ C. Because he didn’t expect to see so many happy dogs.‎ ‎ D. Because he didn’t know there were 1,000 mirrors in the house.‎ ‎26. Why did the first dog like the house?‎ ‎ A. Because there were 1,000 mirrors in the house.‎ ‎ B. Because he thought he could keep himself warm in the house.‎ ‎ C. Because he liked the mirrors.‎ ‎ D. Because he felt he was welcome here.‎ ‎27. The underlined word“growled”probably means 　　　. ‎ ‎ A. made an unfriendly noise B. smiled C. said hello D. stared ‎28. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage? ‎ ‎ A. A Happy Little Dog B. The House of 1,000 Mirrors ‎ C. The Wonderful Place and the Horrible Place D. Two Little Dogs C There are many ways in which human cloning is expected to benefit mankind. Below is a list that is far from completion.‎ Dr. Richard Seed, one of the leading proponents (支持者) of human cloning technology, suggests that it may someday be possible to reverse the aging process because of what we learn from cloning.‎ Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged. Heart disease is the number one killer in the United States and several other industrialized countries.‎ There has been a breakthrough with human stem cells. Embryonic (胚胎的) stem cells can be grown to produce organs to repair or replace damaged ones. Skin for burn victims, brain cells for the brain damaged, hearts, lungs, livers, and kidneys could be produced. By combining this technology with human cloning technology it may be possible to produce needed organs for ‎ suffering people that will be free of rejection by their immune systems. Conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, diabetes, heart failure, and other problems may be made curable if human cloning and its technology are not banned.‎ Despite getting a fair amount of publicity in the news current treatments for infertility (不生育),in terms of percentages, are not very successful. One estimate is that current infertility treatments are less than 10 percent successful. Couples go through physically and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for more infertile couples to have children than ever before. ‎ ‎29.The passage mainly deals with 　　　. ‎ ‎ A. the advantages of human cloning B. the disadvantages of human cloning ‎ C. the problems with human cloning D. the different ways human cloning is done ‎30. According to Dr. Richard Seed we can use cloning technology　　　. ‎ ‎ A. to make people look younger B. to make people live longer ‎ C. to cure people of many diseases D. to produce more animals ‎31.From the passage we can infer that　　　. ‎ ‎ A. cloning has already been used to treat heart diseases ‎ B. we can treat a man’s heart disease by cloning others’ hearts ‎ C. most people in industrialized countries suffer from heart diseases ‎ D. more people die of heart diseases than of other diseases in America ‎32. What would be the best headline for the last paragraph?‎ ‎ A. Physically and Emotionally Pain of Infertile Couples ‎ B. The News Is Not Telling the Truth ‎ C. With Cloning, Infertile Couples Could Have Children ‎ D. Treatment of Infertility Is Not Successful D Decision-making under Stress A new review based on a research shows that acute (严重的) stress affects the way the brain considers the advantages and disadvantages, causing it to focus on pleasure and ignore the possible negative (负面的) consequences of a decision.‎ The research suggests that stress may change the way people make choices in predictable ways.‎ ‎“Stress affects how people learn,” says Professor Mara Mather. “People learn better about positive than negative outcomes under stress.”‎ For example, two recent studies looked at how people learned to connect images (影像) with either rewards or punishments. In one experiment, some of the participants were first stressed by having to give a speech and do difficult math problems in front of an audience; in the other, some were stressed by having to keep their hands in ice water. In both cases, the stressed participants remembered the rewarded material more accurately and the punished material less accurately than those who hadn’t gone through the stress.‎ This phenomenon is likely not surprising to anyone who has tried to resist eating cookies or smoking a cigarette while under stress –at those moments, only the pleasure associated with such activities comes to mind. But the findings further suggest that stress may bring about a double effect. Not only are rewarding experiences remembered better, but negative consequences are also easily recalled.‎ The research also found that stress appears to affect decision-making differently in men and women. While both men and women tend to focus on rewards and less on consequences under stress, their responses to risk turn out to be different.‎ Men who had been stressed by the cold-water task tended to take more risks in the experiment while women responded in the opposite way. In stressful situations in which risk-taking can pay off big, men may tend to do better, when caution weighs more, however, women will win.‎ This tendency to slow down and become more cautious when decisions are risky might also help explain why women are less likely to become addicted than men: they may more often avoid making the risky choices that eventually harden into addiction. ‎ ‎33. We can learn from the passage that people under pressure tend to ______.‎ ‎ A. keep rewards better in their memory B. recall consequences more effortlessly ‎ C. make risky decisions more frequently D. learn a subject more effectively ‎34. According to the research, stress affects people most probably in their ______.‎ ‎ A. tolerance of punishments B. preference for pleasure ‎ C. ways of making choices D. responses to suggestions ‎35. The research has proved that in a stressful situation, ______.‎ ‎ A. women find it easier to fall into certain habits ‎ ‎ B. men are more likely to take risks ‎ C. women focus more on outcomes ‎ ‎ D. men have a greater tendency to slow down 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。 ‎ You want your essay to be the one that is passed around the admissions office—or not. It’s a little bit like the difference between being famous and infamous．‎ We all know that a truthful，well-written essay that shows how the student has matured is sometimes shared among admissions staffers． 36 So how do you make your essay famous instead of infamous?‎ Here are some basic tips to avoid that infamous essay：‎ ‎●Avoid the generic(概括的)and get specific．Don’t write that you’re “fully-developed”or that“many people have impacted”you． 37 .‎ ‎●Don't repeat information that is elsewhere in your application． 38 It is important for the student to use every opportunity to show who they are and impress the admissions office．‎ ‎● 39 If you have gone through difficult circumstances，you should share your story. But don't blame others．It’s important to show perseverance (毅力)．A better essay will talk about how you have dealt with and overcome the obstacles you came across．‎ ‎●Don’t talk about rankings．Many students love focusing on the numbers when they are writing their“why this college”essay． 40 Obviously schools are aware of their rankings. They want to know why you want to attend．‎ A. Don’t try to cover everything in an essay．‎ B. They believe they are praising the college by mentioning the fact that the college is highly ranked．‎ C. It also shows the reader that you are thinking about his or her appreciation of your writing．‎ D. Don’t complain．‎ E. For example，it is not necessary to share your participation level in your essay．‎ F. But I’m guessing that there are a lot more essays that produce laughter and gasps of “not again”.‎ G. Tell the reader what you’ve done, how you’ve been influenced, and by whom．‎ 第三部分 英语知识应用(共三节，满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）‎ ‎ Fifteen years ago, I was living in London.
