Every child was given a job for which they would be responsible for the rest of that school year. As some jobs were more interesting than others, the children were eager to be given one of the best. Among them Rita stood out. She was a kind and quiet girl. Last year she carried out the teacher's instructions perfectly. She was the favorite to be given the best job---to look after the class dog. But this year there was a big surprise. Each child received one of the normal jobs, like preparing the books for the lessons, cleaning the blackboard or looking after one of the pets. But Rita's job was very different. She was given a little box with some sand and one ant. Although the teacher insisted that this ant was very special, Rita could not help feeling disappointed. "I will turn this little task into something great," Rita said to herself. She started to study everything about the little ant, gave it the best food and made the box perfect. The ant ended up growing quite a little bigger. One day, the teacher announced that Rita’s class had been chosen to accompany Doctor Martinez to the tropical rainforest to study all kinds of insects in summer, because the class had best cared for the little ant. The class was filled with joy. Everyone thanked Rita for having been so patient and responsible. And children learnt that to be given the most important tasks you have to know how to be responsible even in what are apparently the smallest tasks. 50. How did Rita feel when she was given her job? A. Disappointed. B. Interested. C. Worried. D. Excited. 51. The class was chosen to go to the rainforest because______. A. everyone did a good job B. Rita looked after the ant well C. Rita was given the best job D. the children studied the ant 52. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage? A. Being a good student will get praise and prizes. B. Every teacher thanked Rita for being kind and quiet. C. Studying insects can help people become more successful. D. We should be responsible for the job even if it seems small. 50.A 51. B 52. D C A great many people, when they speak of home, tend to connect it with a certain atmosphere, certain physical surroundings(环境), and certain emotional attitudes within themselves. This sentimentality(多愁善感) toward home is something that has come down to us from the past. Many modern people do not have it, and I think it is a good thing that they do not. In the old days, life was difficult. Enemies could attack you and kill or rob you, and you had little protection against them. People did not live in well-built houses where doors could be locked. They did not have the protection of an organized police force or telephones which could call the police instantly. How did this influence the way people felt about home? Small family groups clung(贴近) tightly together for protection against beasts and against other men. Today, thanks to modern transportation and well-organized society, thousands of people willingly and eagerly leave the surroundings where they were born, and the oftener they do so, the less sentiment they are likely to have for those surroundings. I lived in England for three years, and I noticed that boys and girls left their parents' homes and lived in places of their own. There they could just telephone and ask an agency to provide them with a house or an apartment, which was their home. How has the meaning of this word “home” been changed by such activity? What does home mean to those people or to families who often move about, living in first one hotel and then another? I believe that for them home means a place where they can have privacy. As for me, the atmosphere and surroundings of the place where my parents live have no sentimental attachment(依恋). Home is where I can shut the door and be by myself. When I left my parents several years ago, I was anxious to leave. You might call it unfeeling, but that was the way I felt. On the day of my departure for the United States, my grandmother cried. My father, however, showed that he knew how I felt. "Son," he said, "I am not sorry that you are leaving us. I only hope that you make the most of your time." 53. Why are modern people willing to leave their parents' homes? A. Because they can afford the money to live outside. B. Because there are no wild animals or enemies around. C. Because the society provides them with the feeling of safety. D. Because they are not actually satisfied with their environment. 54. What can we learn from the article? A. Surroundings influence the way that people act. B. Not many modern people have sentimentality toward home. C. Rights to privacy are well protected in modern society. D. Older people can hardly understand the leaving of the young. 55. What is the best title for the passage? A. The History of Home B. People and Home C. Different Ideas of Home D. Ideas of Home Have Changed 53.C 54. B 55. D D Depression is not a choice. Rather, it is a true medical condition like high blood pressure or heart disease. In the United States alone, more than 17 million people suffer from depression with women being twice as likely as men to suffer from the disease. Depression crosses racial and socioeconomic lines. Anyone can suffer from it, and those that do are not "crazy" or "weak". They have a serious yet highly treatable disease. Feeling down? You’re not alone. If depression seems pretty common, it is. One in every ten adults suffers from depression. And that’s what has scientists confused. If depression causes harm to the body, why is it so widespread in the population? Some scientists think they may have the answer. Depression may have an evolutionary (进化) benefit. It may improve one’s chances of fighting off infection (感染). Scientists have known that depressed people show an immunoreactive (免疫反应性的) condition known as inflammation (炎症), even when they are not infected. For several years they have been finding that genes (基因) linked to depression also affect the function of the immune system. Stress, which can lead to depression, also change the immune system. These findings suggested that depression was somehow linked to the body’s ability to fight disease. Some scientists now come up with the idea that depression might have had an evolutionary advantage in the days before modern medicine and antibiotics (抗生素). Infection was a major cause of death in early human history. Surviving those infections determined which genes were passed to the next generation. They doubt that depression helped people, especially children, stay alive from infection. Extreme tiredness leads to inactivity and less social contact which helps keep infection from spreading. Having no appetite helps avoid food sharing which can also spread infection. Sleeplessness, which is associated with both depression and immune system activation, may have been a mechanism to keep a person alert(机警) to fight off enemies after injury. If scientists are correct about this link, it could lead to new treatments for depression. They are interested in drugs that treat conditions where the immune system attacks the person’s own body, known as auto immune diseases. It is possible that medicine known to treat auto immune disease may be successful in treating depression also. 56. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means ____. A. there is a depression line between different groups and societies B. people at a higher social position may tend to suffer from depression C. people who are living with depression could connect with each other D. anyone can get depression whatever their economic states and backgrounds are 57. In Paragraph 2 the author ______. A. introduces an idea on depression B. gives an example to show his idea C. explains how depression works D. describes the depression problems 58. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE? A. Depression can spread infection. B. Stress may affect the function of the immune system. C. Women are less likely to suffer from depression. D. Modern medicine is widely used for treating depression. 59. The writer mainly wants to tell people that depression _____. A. is serious but highly treatable disease B. could have its advantages in scientific research C. may improve one’s chances of fighting off infection D. is a true medical condition like high blood pressure 56.D 57.

The country is changing the way Hollywood does business. Films made or shown in China are reviewed by a board of censors(审查署), and the film Skyfall had some parts cut. The science fiction film Cloud Atlas lost 40 minutes, mostly parts showing violence(暴力). Films are also cut if they harm China image(形象). Some big action films have a direct China connection. The adventure Iron Man 3 was partly filmed in China, so it has also been examined by Chinese officials. "Chinese opinions also influence other films, like 2012", said Stanley Rosen at the University of Southern California. He studies China's film industry. "Even if you're not .making in China, a film like 2012 will be very careful. A film including something that hurts Chinese feelings will simply kill the market." Chinese audiences love big movies with special effects. Half of Hollywood's box is from Chinese theaters, and Chinese officials last year raised the yearly percentage of film imports(进口) from 20 t0 34. Life of Pi was well received from Taiwan-born director Ang Lee, who has won his second Oscar Award for Best Director at the 85th Academy Awards Ceremony. "More Hollywood studios(制片公司) are finding Chinese partners for co-productions, and Disney and DreamWorks Animation(梦工厂) are putting money in tourist attractions in Shanghai." Stanley Rosen said, "It's a developing relationship, and Hollywood needs China, as the North American market has been flat. But China needs Hollywood, as well, as you see with DreamWorks and Disney going in." And China is coming to Hollywood. The Chinese company TCL has bought the right to rename the historic Grauman's Chinese Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard. And Dalian Wanda Group has bought a key American theater chain(连锁影院), AMC. The ties between China and Hollywood are expected to grow further in the future. 54. __________is the largest market for films in the world. A. China B. North America C. The United States D. India 55. From the passage, we can infer that __________. A. Chinese audiences develop Hollywood films B. Hollywood starts to do business in a Chinese way C. Chinese film market has an influence on Hollywood D. Hollywood films are shown in most of Chinese theaters 56. The writer uses Disney, DreamWorks Animation and TCL as examples to__________. A. show the connections between China and Hollywood B. introduce the movie studios in China and Hollywood C. show how China and Hollywood help each other D. explain why more movie studios go into China 54.B 55.C 56.A D How would you like to study at an American university in China? With the news that New York University (NYU) is considering setting up a branch(分校)on Chinese mainland, the possibility of getting an American education becomes a reality. But how will Chinese students deal with a very different style of teaching? One that encourages debate(辩论), discussion and critical thinking (批判思维); one which puts little attention on rote learning. You know how kids ask questions all the time? Asking questions shows they are curious (好奇). So when does that natural curiosity get weak? Not at kindergarten or nursery, nor at primary school. As you grow older perhaps refusing to draw attention to yourself by asking the teacher questions, you grow quiet. If so, that's a pity, because questioning your teachers should be encouraged. After all, they're the ones who've been educated, have a lot more experience than you and perhaps have a little wisdom. When I taught joumalim at college in Scotland I enjoyed answering students' questions. Some of them raised difficult questions. I didn't always know the answers. If I didn't, I'd accept it and try to find out later. At university we were encouraged to challenge our classmates and teachers. There was often a regular meeting between teachers and some students. A student would prepare a paper on a subject and the other students would criticize it. It could be frightening. But it was a way of developing critical thinking. We need to differentiate critical thinking with loudmouths. We've all come across loudmouths who speak out quickly as if they knew what they were talking about. I know one loudmouth who is paid a great deal of money by a British tabloid newspaper to entertain readers with his deeply-held prejudices(偏见). You might not agree with columnist(专栏作家) Richard Littlejohn, but you have to say that he is entertaining and there is an internal logic(内在的逻辑)to his statements. Having a logical mind can help develop critical thinking. My wife doesn't have a logical mind, but she does have emotional intelligence(情商). I can't say that I have anything like her emotional intelligence. but I'd like to think some of it rubbed off on me. If you can't at least try to put yourself in someone else's shoes, how can you understand their situation, their problems and issues? So try to develop your powers of critical thinking. Start with books, films, music and newspapers. And don't believe everything you read or see. Think independently. 57. According to the passage, to develop your critical thinking, you can____________. A. keep curious and follow your heart B. think logically, not emotionally C. do more reading and think actively D. voice your opinion like a loudmouth 58. The underlined words 66rubbed off on mc" in Paragraph 5 probably mean " __________". A. helped me solve the problem better B. had some influence on me in a way C. moved it backwards and forwards D. advised me to wear others' shoes 59. What can be the best title for the passage? A. Want to be different? Think critically B. Want to be critical? Think for yourself C. Choose NYU, choose critical thinking D. Importance of improving critical thinking 57.C 58.B 59.B 东城: 阅读理解(共44分) 六、阅读下列短文,根据短文内容,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。(共26分,每小题2分) A How do you make friends?

Many swimming lovers in the north of the country celebrated it on January 1st. Winter swimming is a physical training. During it, you can have a cold wind bath, an icy water bath and a sunbath at the same time in the open air of winter. When you have taken off clothes, all parts of your body are awakened by the cold. You may feel like going into the water, but a warm-up exercise is a must before jumping into the freezing water. You go into the cold water and swim. The only thing you think about in the cold water is how to withstand(承受住)the cold. At this moment, your brain is relaxed and at rest. Then you come out just when your hands and feet are beginning to feel freezing. After you get dried, your pink-colored skin is bathed in the winter sunshine. Slowly, you no longer feel cold. After the “three baths” of air, water and sun, you will feel warm, relaxed and comfortable. Winter swimming is a way to keep fit. Many people find it a difficult sport, while its lovers say the sport makes them stronger. But it may not be fit for everyone. Before you decide to try, make sure you check you’re in good physical condition to do such a brave sport. 50. When you are swimming in the cold water, your brain is ______. A. relaxed B. fresh C. active D. slow 51. After winter swimming, you will feel ______. A. full B. healthy C. freezing D. comfortable 52. To take part in winter swimming, you must ______. A. enjoy cold wind bath B. receive special training C. check your physical condition D. take warm-up exercise every day C It can’t be truer that when in Rome do as the Romans do. So it’s necessary for you to know what you can talk about with the local people in other countries. In France You’ll find that conversations often turn into heated discussions. You’d better give opinions only on subjects that you are knowledgeable about. There is seldom a moment of silence, except when the topic under discussion has been finished, and nothing new has been introduced. Food, art, music and current events or history are welcome topics. The French believe in freedom, and you can criticize(批评)anyone, but not Napoleon, who stands for the French spirit. Moreover, never use the conversation opener “What do you do?” In Australia Generally speaking, the Australians are excited about discussions. Many topics may be open to discussion, including religion and politics. The best way, however, is to wait for Australians to bring up these two subjects; be prepared to listen to what they are talking about. The Australians like to criticize themselves, but they can’t stand being criticized by others. Don’t talk big. Instead, the Australians prefer to judge(判断)your abilities through your actions. People who show off their education in conversation may be laughed at. In Switzerland The Swiss may seem cold. Once you get close to them, however, you’ll find that they are honest, responsible people, who will respect your interests much. They are good listeners and will remember almost everything you say to them. Sometimes they will even take notes while you speak. The Swiss are a very private people, so you should avoid asking personal questions. They can be rather serious, so it is advisable to avoid playing jokes on them. 53. According to the passage, it’s better not to criticize ______. A. the Romans B. the French C. the Australians D. the Swiss 54. What can we infer from the passage? A. The Swiss are not as cold as they seem to be. B. The French can’t stand the heated discussions. C. The Australians like to talk about their success. D. The French usually have a conversation about jobs. 55. The writer wants to tell us . A. what to introduce to foreigners B. how to live in foreign countries C. how to get along with foreigners D. what to talk about in foreign countries D Much has been said and written recently about heroes, mainly because many people think we have too few of them. There are many different kinds of heroes, but they all seem to have two things in common. First, heroes, by their actions, show the great possibilities of human nature. Second, heroes can also stand the test of time, and their achievements will not be easily forgotten. Because of these good points, we need to choose our heroes carefully. Olympic sportstar Jackie Joyner-Kersee, who is believed to be a hero, warns young people to be careful of making athletes heroes. She hopes that if someone tries to copy her, it will be because she has achieved her goals by working hard. Joyner-Kersee says that a hero should be someone who has an influence on another person’s life. Poet Maya Angelou believes that a hero encourages people to treat others well and to be concerned about the greater good. A hero should show politeness, courage, patience, and strength all the time. A hero should encourage others to follow him with actions that improve the world, even if only in small ways. Author Daniel Boorstin suggests that, “Celebrities are people who make news, but heroes are people who make history.” Thus, if a person is truly worthy to be called a hero, he or she will not be soon forgotten. We all need heroes. We need to be able to respect people who have been there, done that, and succeeded. Many times the greatest heroes are the people we deal with every day — relatives(亲戚), friends, and neighbours — who will keep going when it is easier to give up. The parent who puts her or his family ahead of herself or himself, the teacher who will make more money at another job but chooses to help others — all these people can be considered as heroes. A hero quietly and continuously sets a good example, an example that inspires others to follow. 56. Joyner-Kersee hopes that young people ______. A. will work hard B. will become heroes C. will follow her D. will achieve her goal 57. The underlined word “celebrities” in Paragraph 4 means ______. A. volunteers B. reporters C. sport players D. famous people 58. From the passage we know that ______. A. there are fewer heroes than before B. many common people set examples to us C. heroes should be polite, patient and famous D. heroes have to reach the standard required for them 59. The best title for this passage is ______. A. What Heroes Do B. Who Are Heroes C. How Heroes Live D. Where Heroes are 朝阳: 阅读理解(共44分) 六、阅读下列短文,根据短文内容,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。(共26分,每小题2分) A Now you’re really flying. Remember being best friends when you were young? Times change but people don’t—they’re still your friends and you’ll have fun together. Cathay Pacific flies to over 90 different places in the world so you can meet old friends and make new ones. The next move is yours. What can we harmonize (和谐) today? “Environmentally friendly” meets “fun to drive” in the Toyota Prius, the world’s best-selling vehicle (车辆). The Prius is just one example of how Toyota brings the two opposite things into harmony for a bright future. 47. What are the two advertisements about? A. First: an airline; second: a car. B. First: a car; second: an airline. C. Both: airlines. D. Both: cars. 48. What places can Cathay Pacific take us to? A. Only the places in our city. B. The places all over the Pacific. C. Only the places in our country. D. The places all over the world. 49. “Environmentally friendly” and “fun to drive” are ______. A. the same B. a little different C. just opposite D. almost similar (A)47. A 48. D 49. C B When you work long hours and Sundays are no longer a day to rest, feeling overworked can become the new normal. Take sportsmen as examples and do the same yourself, so you’ll know if you’re overworking. Check your resting heart rate (率). Every day, before you get out of bed, take your pulse (脉搏). Usually your heart rate will stay within a few beats every minute. But when you’re overworked, the rate increases. If your heart rate is up in the morning, get a little more rest or sleep that night. Check your emotions. Getting angry easily? If you can’t put your finger on a clear reason, there may be something wrong with your emotions. Hoping to change the condition won’t help. The only way out is a break. Check your weight. If you lose or increase more than 1% of body weight from one day to the next, something is wrong. Maybe yesterday you were too busy and failed to notice you didn’t eat and drink enough. Or maybe you failed to notice that you were eating too much. 50. How many ways are mentioned to check if we’re overworking? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 51. When should we check our heart rate? A. In the morning. B. In the afternoon. C. At noon. D. At night. 52. What is the best way to deal with the problem of overwork? A. Doing more sports. B. Drinking more water. C. Having more rest. D. Eating less food. (B)50. B 51. A 52. C C If you look through the Surui reserve (保护区) with Google Earth, you will see a green area in the middle of yellow surroundings. Once, the Paiter-Surui tribe (部落) lived in the heart of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. But after the tribe met with Westerners years ago, they nearly disappeared: diseases brought by outsiders reduced the Surui’s numbers from 5,000 to about 250. Today, some 1,300 people live in 23 villages across 600,000 acres (英亩). Though they are wearing T-shirts and jeans, the Surui decide to protect the tribal culture. They are in danger again. Trees are being cut, animals are being killed, and the forest is becoming smaller and smaller. But this time it’s different. The Surui people have put aside their bows and arrows and taken up a new weapon (武器): the Internet. The idea comes from the leader of the Surui, Chief Almir Narayamoga. “We decided to use computers to bring attention to our situation,” says Narayamoga. The first in his tribe to go to college, he learned how to use computers. The chief asked about the possibility of making a map of the Surui reserve using Google Earth. An online tour of the reserve, he believed, would help protect the Surui by showing the world the results of cutting trees and the attacks (进攻) on tribal land. It would also tell the government about their situation. This way, Narayamoga hoped to raise money to protect the rain forest by planting one million trees. “Training and education is now our kind of war,” he says. “We know we have to do so.” Narayamoga’s visit to Google was a great success. The Internet search company sent teams to the Amazon to train the Surui in using computers, cameras, and phones to photograph their surroundings, which could be found using GPS and then shown on Google Earth. The Surui have now mapped the whole reserve and recorded the animals and plants of the rainforest within it. While their work is supported (支持) by some international groups, Narayamoga hopes they can support themselves within ten years, with coffee production and tourism. The great thing about the Surui is that they try to find their own ways to deal with the problems they face. 53. How many people are still living in the tribe today? A. About 600,000. B. About 5,000. C. About 1,300. D. About 250. 54. What is the greatest danger the Surui face now? A. They are often attacked. B. The reserve is getting smaller. C. Their culture is forgotten. D. The rainforest is disappearing. 55. What do the Surui mainly depend on to protect their land? A. Normal tools in life. B. Scientific knowledge. C. Help from outside. D. Information technology. (C)53. C 54. D 55. D D None of us is quite as healthy in mind as we seem, but neither is every unusual thing we do means we’re unhealthy. How to tell the difference? Start by reading the letters below, which have been analyzed by our experts. (1) Lately, after I read an unusual word, I often can’t get it out of my head for days, sometimes weeks. I silently repeat it to myself, often spell it, and even wake up in the night with it ringing in my head. What’s wrong with my brain? That sounds like a little obsession (着迷). Your brain feels that for some reason it must repeat this word. Unless it is taking up more than an hour of your day or really influencing your life, it is not serious. To stop it, leave it alone. If you really want to stop the repetition, set aside ten minutes a day to repeat the word over and over again. Do it so many times that you finally get sick of it. (2) I sometimes have strange dreams when taking a short sleep, and I think they’re real when I wake up. Then, as I come around, I realize they aren’t. Is there something wrong with me? What’s wrong is that you take short sleeps and most of us don’t! But are you mad? No. We all have strange dreams, and it’s normal, upon waking, to be fuzzy (模糊) for a little while or even not to remember where we are. What is not normal is if you don’t have these dreams. (3) When people are eating, I can’t stand the sound of a fork or spoon knocking on a plate or bowl. I begin shaking and having a headache. I’m also sickened by the sound of people chewing with their mouths open. Is there something wrong with me? It seems that there is something wrong with everyone else you know. How come they don’t eat with their mouths closed? At the least, you’re over sensitive (敏感) to little noise. You may also be troubled by a disorder in mind called misophonia. Try drawing your attention away from the noise. Pay attention to something else as hard as you can when you eat with your friends: the music in the background, the scene out the window, even what they’re talking about. You can train yourself to be less troubled by the noise. (4) When I’m driving and have to cross a bridge, my heart starts racing and I feel light-headed. The fear that I’m going to pass out makes the whole situation worse. Am I crazy? This sounds like an anxiety (忧虑), which can bring on heart illness and a real sense that you’re going to die. This kind of feeling is the body’s reaction to the possible danger in near future. To keep your anxiety from progressing, try the old method: breathing. When you feel your heart starting to race, take a deep breath in three or four times, and then let it out five or six times until you start to feel comfortable. You can also make a tape of your favourite song, and sing along as you cross the bridge. 56. What does the word analyzed mean in the first paragraph? A. Divided into parts. B. Examined carefully. C.

It’s a day when people ask for protection for their animals. They bring their animals to church. But before the animals go into the church, the people usually dress them up in flowers. Chusok On August 15 of the lunar calendar, Koreans celebrate Chusok to give thanks for the harvest. Also on Chusok, a big meal with moon-shaped rice cake is eaten. New Year’s Eve One of the biggest celebrations in Argentina is New Year’s Eve. On the evening of December 31, families get together and have a big meal. At midnight, fireworks set everywhere and continue throughout the night. Friends and families meet at parties, which last until the next morning. Setsubun On the evening of February 3, people in Japanese families take one dried bean(豆)for each year of their age and throw the beans around their homes, shouting “Good luck in! Evil sprits out!” This is known as “Setsubun,” a time to celebrate the end of winter and the beginning of spring. 47. When is St. Anthony’s Day? A. December 31. B. August 15. C. February 3. D. January 17. 48. Why do Koreans celebrate Chusok? A. To celebrate the end of winter. B. To give thanks for the harvest. C. To wish their families good luck. D. To ask for protection for their animals. 49. What do Japanese people do on Setsubun? A. Bring their animals to church. B. Meet friends and families at parties. C. Throw the beans around their homes.

You hate to be impolite and cut your friend off, but what can you do? Stephanie Winston, author of Stephanie Winston’s Best Organizing Tips, offers his advice: Don’t ask questions like “What’s new?” They give the information that you have time to talk. After “hello”, get right to the heart of the matter. Time your calls wisely. If you make a call right before lunch or dinner, or at the end of the workday, people chat less.[来源:学科网] Set a time limit. Start with, “Hi, I’ve only got a few minutes, but I wanted to talk to you about….” Or, “Gee, I’d love to talk more, but I only have a couple of minutes before I have to leave.” Jump on a pause(间歇). Even the most talkative caller has to pause now and then. Quickly say, “It has been great talking with you.” Then end the conversation. Forget niceties. Some people just don’t take a hint. Cut your caller off and say, “I’d like to talk to you longer, but I’m afraid I have no enough time. Good bye.” Then hang up. Find “a partner in crime”. If nothing else works, ask someone in your home to help you. For example, one woman gives a sign to her husband, who shouts, “Jane, I think the roast chicken is burning.” Avoid the phone completely. Use an answering machine to screen calls. If you have an important message for a chatterbox(唠叨的人), leave the message when he or she isn’t in. 50. What’s the good time to make a call so that people can chat less? A. After lunch or dinner. B. In the middle of the workday. C. Before lunch or dinner. D. At the beginning of the workday. 51. “Finding a partner in crime” means ______. A. finding someone to answer the call B. getting right to the heart of the matter C. telling the caller you are just cooking D. asking someone to help you end the call 52. What’s Winston’s advice about? A. How to talk on the phone. B. How to make calls wisely. C. How to make a phone call. D. How to keep phone calls short. 50. C 51. D 52. D C People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in differentiating facial expressions – and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why. Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly (均匀的) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes. “We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,” Jack said. “Westerners not only look at the eyes, but also the mouth, but Easterners prefer the eyes and don’t look at the mouth very often.” According to Jack and his coworkers, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more difficult to understand than what was believed before. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered commonly understandable cannot be completely used to convey(传递)emotion in cross-cultural situations. The researchers studied cultural differences in the understanding of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into different categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, angry, or dissatisfied. They compared how correctly people who took part in the research read those facial expressions by using their eye movements. It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made more mistakes than Westerners did. “The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection(反射)of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said. “Our research suggests that while Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.” In short, the research shows that facial expressions are not universal messages of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified(使多样化)these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. If not, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation. 53. What does Jack’s research show about Westerners?[来源:Zxxk.Com] A. They consider facial expressions more believable. B. They pay attention to both the eyes and the mouth. C. They have more difficulty in telling facial expressions. D. They observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways. 54. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refer to? A. The researchers who took the study. B. The mistakes made during the study. C. The people who took part in the study. D. The Easterners who made more mistakes. 55. What can be the best title for the passage? A. A New Report on Human Emotion. B. Eye Movements in Communication. C. Cultural Differences in Reading Emotion. D. How to Increase Cross-cultural Understanding. 53. B 54. C 55. C D According to an official report on youth violence(暴力), “The greatest danger to the lives of children is not disease or food shortage, but violence”. Why aren’t students taught to manage conflict(冲突)the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit? First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school students shows that most violence between students begin with small things. For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can then lead to a fight. The problem isn’t in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict. Once students realize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of staying calm(平静的). Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words only make things worse. On the other hand, soft words can put out the fire before it is out of control. After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key way to help: listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without getting in a word. Afterwards, the listener can ask some questions to make the speaker’s position clear. Then the two people should change roles. Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. This doesn’t mean trying to work out what’s wrong with the other person. It means understanding what both sides are trying to deal with. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid of? As the problem becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn’t mean there needs to be violence. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution(解决)is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country. 56. What is the passage mainly about? A. The lives of school children. B. The causes of fights in schools. C. How to explain youth violence. D. How to deal with school conflicts. 57. What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A. A small conflict can lead to violence. B. Students seem to lose their temper easily. C. Violence is more likely to happen at lunchtime. D. The eating habit of a student often causes a fight. 58. Why do students need to ask themselves the questions in Paragraph 5? A. To make clear what the real problem is. B. To find out who should take responsibility. C. To show more considerations for both sides. D. To work out how to stop the shouting match. 59. What’s the writer’s purpose for writing this passage? A. To tell the latest studies on school violence. B. To teach students different skills for school life. C. To describe some problems in school education. D. To suggest teaching conflict management in schools. 56. D 57. A 58. A 59.

Though it was not fine and clouds appeared in the sky that morning, the little girl made her daily trip to school as usual. When school was over, winds became stronger and it began to rain. The mother of the little girl felt worried that her daughter would be afraid and that lightning might frighten(惊吓) her child. Following the bright light of lightning, the mother quickly got into her car and drove to her child’s school. As the mother drove along the road, she saw her little girl walking alone in the rain. To her great surprise, she found that when a lightning came, her daughter stopped, looked up and smiled. Another lightning came and then another followed. With each lightning, the little girl stopped, looked up and smiled. Inside the car, the mother asked her daughter, “What were you doing? Why did you look up and smile when the lightning came?” The little girl answered with a smile, “Mum, you know, God was looking at me. Each time I felt a little afraid walking in the rain, God would take a picture of me. I knew he was playing a game with me.” 50. The little girl went to school __________ every day. A. by car B. on foot C. by bus D. by bike 51. At first, the mother felt worried because . A. she couldn’t look after her daughter B. her daughter hadn’t taken her umbrella C. she had something more important to do D. her daughter might be afraid of lightning 52. According to the article, we can know that the little girl was . A. proud B. shy C. brave D. nervous 50. B 51. D 52. C C Stay as safe as possible during an earthquake. Be aware that some earthquakes are actually foreshocks(前震) and a larger earthquake might occur. Reduce your movements to a few steps to a nearby safe place. If you are indoors, do “duck, cover and hold”. Duck or drop down to the floor, under something strong, such as a table or a desk, cover your head and face with your arms and hands and hold on to that table or desk so that it does not move away from you as the ground shakes. Do this until the shaking stops and it is safe to move. Stay inside to avoid being injured by falling glass or building parts. If there isn’t a table or desk near you, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch(蜷缩) in an inside corner of the building. Stay clear of windows, fireplaces, and heavy furniture that may fall over. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries occur when people inside buildings attempt to move to a different location inside the building or try to leave. If you are outside, get into the open and stay there. Move away from trees, buildings, signs and power lines. Once in the open, stay there until the shaking stops. The greatest danger exists directly outside buildings, at exits and alongside exterior walls. Ground movement during an earthquake is seldom the direct cause of death or injury. Most earthquake-related casualties(伤亡) result from collapsing walls, flying glass, and falling objects. If you are driving, you may not realize what is going on at first because the car may feel like it is going to blow up. Stop the car in as clear and open an area as possible and stay in it until the shaking stops. If it is a really bad quake, turn on the radio to find an emergency channel to get information. Follow the directions of people directing traffic. If you are in a mountainous area, watch out for falling rock and other debris that could be loosened by the earthquake. If you are at the beach, move quickly to higher ground or several hundred yards inland. 53. Which of the following pictures means “duck, cover and hold”? [来源:Z§xx§k.Com] A B C D 54. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text? A. Ground movement during an earthquake is the main reason of death. B. You should keep your windows, fireplaces and heavy furniture clear. C. Stop your car in the clear area and get out of it if an earthquake happens. D. Run away from the beach as quickly as possible if an earthquake happens. 55. The passage is mainly about ___________during the earthquake. A. ways of keeping you safe B. the importance of keeping safe C. ways of finding safe places D. researches on how to keep safe 53. B 54. D 55. A D Tony Buzan’s grades were going down at university. Disappointed with his low marks, he went to the library to find a book on how to use his brain. He was directed to the medical section. Confused, he said to the librarian, “I don’t want to take my brain out, I just want to learn how to use it.” Her reply was simple: “There’s no book on that.” “I thought to myself,” says Buzan, “if I buy a little radio, I get an instruction manual (说明书). If I buy a microwave, I get an instruction manual. But for the most important machine in the world, no instruction manual?” Fifty years later, Buzan has become the world’s leading speaker on the brain and learning. In the late 1960s, he invented the mind map, a visual representation of thought processes. This kind of thinking has become a popular tool for planning, organizing, problem solving, and communicating across the world. He has since authored and co-authored over 100 books that have appeared in more than 30 languages. “I think in most cases, people use less than 1 percent of their brains,” he says. But how do you expand this 1 percent? How do you become the best student you can be? According to Buzan, the answer is simple. You take a section of whatever it is that you are trying to learn, he says, and you read it for its essence (精髓、要素). Then you make a mind map of all the important details. For a truly effective mind map, you start with a colored image in the center of your page. Draw the first image that comes to mind on the topic you are mind mapping. Branch off from your central image and create one of your main ideas. From your main branches draw some sub-branches and from those sub-branches you can draw even more branches. He emphasizes that you should use plenty of images and colors as these help with memory recall and encourage creativity. By using this visual format (形式), according to Buzan, your mind will begin to make associations that will help you remember more information for longer periods of time. Buzan believes that traditional note-taking methods, such as lists and summaries, do not stimulate the brain’s recall capacity or ability in the same way. Because of this, students will often find themselves locked away in their rooms for hours, trying hard to memorize separate details. Buzan believes that for a more effective and lasting way of studying, you must first understand how your brain works. “Everyone is born smart,” he says. “You just have to learn how to learn.” 56. What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs? A. To show that Tony Buzan was worried about his study. B. To invite us to think about the importance of manuals. C. To prove that the mind map is a useful tool for the brain. D. To show why Tony Buzan studies the brain and learning. 57. What does the word “stimulate” mean in the passage? A. Excite. B. Improve. C. Encourage. D. Affect. 58. What can we infer from the passage? A. If we learn the mind map, we will become the best student. B. The mind map will help your brain connect separate details. C. The mind map will be more effective if we put more details in it. D. We will solve the problem if we make connections between ideas. 59. What is the best title for the passage? — How to make the mind map? B. Is the mind map widely used? C. Can your memory be mapped? D. Is the mind map helpful in thinking? 56. D 57. A 58. B 59.
