They supposed the shoes belonged to a poor man who was employed in a field close by, and who had nearly finished his day’s work. The student turned to the professor, saying, “Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his shoes, and hide ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his confusion when he cannot find them”. ‎ ‎ “My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never amuse ourselves at the expense of the poor. But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by tricking on the poor man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the discovery affects him.”‎ ‎ The student did so, and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes. After he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, he felt something hard. He bent down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder were seen on his face. ‎ ‎ He fixed his eyes on the coin, turned it round, and looked at it again and again. He then looked around him on all sides, but no person was to be seen. He now put the money into his pocket, and continued to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin. His feelings overcame him. He fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and cried a sincere thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread, whom the timely help, from some unknown hand, would save from dying. ‎ ‎ The student stood there, deeply affected, and his eyes filled with tears. “Now,” said the professor, “are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick?” The youth replied, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget. ‎ ‎24. The student wanted to play the poor man a trick to _______ . ‎ A. find the truth B. show his wisdom C. teach him a lesson D. amuse himself ‎25. After finding the two coins, the man felt ________ .‎ A. helpless B. interested C. thankful D. peaceful ‎26. We can know from the passage that the professor is _________ . ‎ A. rich B. wise C. humorous D. serious ‎27. What dose the story intend to tell us?‎ A. A small act of kindness brings great joy. B. God helps those who help themselves. ‎ C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Actions speak louder than words. ‎ C No one on earth would love to visit a doctor. But no matter how much we hate to knock at the doctor’s door, something or other takes us right there. And the visits increase with age, as does the number of health problems. Now while it is true that doctors cannot be totally done away with, you can keep well just by a ‎ smile every now and then. ‎ The reasons are not hard to guess. Everyone likes to share humor. But what you might not know just is that fun, joy and humor are instrumental in improving the mental and physical health of a human being. Research says that the chances of a heart attack are reduced for those who laugh more than their fellows. In the rapid pace of life, every little thing may lead to stress, anxiety or depression. The common antidote to all these is nothing but a hearty laugh.‎ One good thing about laughter is that you can never possibly have enough of fun. If you love to laugh, you are all set to live a healthy stress-free life. And this may hold fine testimony(证明) to all stories of humor or humorous pieces of work, in books or on the Internet. Take for instance the funny stuff you get online to tickle your funny bone. Didn’t you get hooked on it for hours grinning from ear to ear?‎ Nowadays, the Internet is a place of generating humor where people spend hours to do away with their boredom, or even when they are not bored. In order to see the doctor less people eagerly read jokes, watch funny videos or play fun games.‎ ‎28. This passage is probably taken from a book dealing with 　　.‎ A. politics and history ‎ B. leisure and entertainment C. science and technology ‎ D. life and health ‎29. The underlined word “antidote” (in Paragraph 2) probably means_____.‎ A. success B. operation C. behavior D. cure ‎30. You would like to surf online probably because the material is_____.‎ A. funny B. convenient C. cheap D. useful ‎ ‎31. The passage is mainly to tell us _______.‎ A. no one loves to visit a doctor B. how to live a healthy stress-free life C. laughing every day keeps the doctor away D. the Internet and health are close friends D Wake Up, Sleep Gene ‎ Some people can stay up all night and still get work done the next day. I’m not one of them. After a night ‎ without enough sleep, I feel bad-tempered. I have trouble remembering things. And all I want to do is crawl back into bed and sleep. ‎ ‎ How do you feel after you’ve stayed up late to finish schoolwork? Or the day after an overnight party? Scientists now say that your answers to these questions may depend on your genes. ‎ ‎ New research suggests that a gene called period 3 affects how well you function without sleep. The period 3 gene comes in two forms: short and long. Everyone has two copies of the gene. So, you may have two longs, two shorts, or one of each. Your particular combination depends on what your parents passed on to you. ‎ ‎ Scientists from the University of Surrey in England studied 24 people who had either two short or two long copies of period 3. Study participants had to stay awake for 40 hours straight. Then, they took tests that measured how quickly they pushed a button when number flashed on a screen and how well they could remember lists of numbers.‎ ‎ Results showed that the people with the short form of period 3 performed much better on these tests than the people with the long form did. In both groups, people performed worst in the early morning. That’s the time when truck drivers and other night-shift workers say they have the most trouble concentrating.‎ ‎ After the first round of experiments, participants were finally allowed to sleep. People in the group that performed well on the tests took about 18 minutes to nod off. People with the long period 3 genes, by contrast, fell asleep in just 8 minutes. They also spent more time in deep sleep. That suggests that people with the long form of the gene need more and deeper sleep to keep their brains working at top form.‎ ‎ I think I must have the long form of period 3. What about you? ]‎ ‎32. The purpose of this passage might be________． ‎ A. to tell us the importance of plenty of sleep B. to tell the result of a research on sleepy gene ‎ C. to find out the author’s forms of genes D. to announce the sleeping rules of humans ‎33. What kind of people need less sleep according to the research? ‎ A. Those with two short copies of the gene.‎ B. Those with two long copies of the gene.‎ C. Those with one short and one long copies of the gene. ‎ D. Those with four short copies of the gene. ‎ ‎34. If one lacks enough sleep, one should avoid doing important or dangerous things_______． ‎ A. at night B. at dusk C. at noon D. at dawn ‎ ‎35. Why did the author suppose he or she had a long form of period 3?‎ A. Because the author spent less time in deep sleep. ‎ B. Because the author could concentrate in the early morning. ‎ C. Because the author needed more sleep to keep energetic. ‎ D. Because the author could remain energetic without enough sleep.‎ 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。‎ How to Have a Successful Teenage Life ‎ Everyone wants to succeed in their life, don’t they? Even as a teenager, you can achieve success in your life; it really isn’t that hard. 36 ‎ ‎ Do well in school. No matter how boring it is now, education will help you be a productive member in society. Try your best for excellence in school; listen to the teachers, do your homework, study, and get good grades. Doing so will help you get into a better university, which will enable you to have a bright future. 37 ‎ ‎ Do good in your community. Volunteering can not only improve your community’s status, it could make you happier. Studies show that people who volunteer are less likely to develop depression than people who don’t. 38 For example, if you love animals, volunteer at an animal shelter. If you love helping the environment, plant trees or pick up litter. When you help others, it will make you feel better about yourself.‎ ‎ 39 Remember, they’re there to help you be the best that you can be. Respect them and value their opinions, even if they annoy you sometimes. 40 You don’t get to choose your teachers or your family, but you still have to put up with them. Learn how to deal with people now, because when you’re an adult, you don’t get to choose your boss or your co-workers, so learn how to respect them now. ‎ ‎ A. Live life to the fullest.‎ ‎ B. School sets you up on the right track!‎ ‎ C. Be nice to your parents and teachers. ‎ ‎ D. Find chances to do volunteer work that interests you. ‎ ‎ E. It will help you pass time and develop your personality. ‎ ‎ F. Here are some important points that you may find helpful. ‎ ‎ G.
