Author of the national bestseller From Panic to Power, Lucinda Bassett produces and hosts the award-winning infomercial, Attacking Anxiety. She has shared her techniques with such clients as McDonalds, Chrysler, and AT&T. She has appeared on numerous talk shows, including Operah and The View, and been featured in Family Circle, Reader’s Digest, and many more.‎ Customer Reviews This book has helped me to gain hope and courage to cope with all my fears and worries. Lucinda writes with such a great understanding and sympathy. She herself had problems with panic and worry. Her positive thinking tips are easy to follow. I don’t get lost in a lot of mental problems. It’s as if she were holding your hand, sitting right beside you, cheering you on! I believe I can do anything I set my mind to after reading this book. However, there are some other readers holding the contrary views.‎ ‎21. What is Life Without Limits about?‎ A. It shows readers what Lucinda Bassett is. B. It describes how hard the actual life is.‎ C. It encourages readers to realize their dreams. D. It implies it is hard to control your life.‎ ‎22. Lucinda Bassett works as all the following except _______.‎ A. teacher B. writer C. hostess D. businesswoman ‎23. We can conclude from the last paragraph that _______.‎ A. Lucinda talks with the customer face to face B. all the customers have some mental problems C. Lucinda has made a lot of money from the book ‎ D. all the customers don’t agree with what Lucinda wrote B An old lady was walking with her basket down the middle of a street in Petrograd to the great confusion of the traffic and with no small danger to herself. It was pointed out to her that the pavement was the place for pedestrians, but she replied:“ I’m going to walk where I like. We’ve got liberty now.” It did not occur to the dear old lady that if liberty entitled（授权）the pedestrian to walk down the middle of the road, then the end of such liberty would be universal chaos.‎ ‎ Everybody would be getting in everybody else’s way and nobody would get anywhere. Individual liberty would have become social chaos.‎ There is a danger of the world getting liberty-drunk in these days like the old lady, and it is just as well to remind ourselves of what the rule of the road means. It means that in order that the liberties of all may be preserved, the liberties of everybody must be limited. When the policeman steps into the middle of the road and puts out his hand, he is the symbol not of tyranny(暴政), but of liberty.‎ Liberty is not a personal affair only, but a social contract(契约). In matters which do not touch anybody else’s liberty, of course, I may be as free as 1 like. If I go down the street dressed strangely, who shall say me no? We have a whole kingdom in which we rule alone and can do what we choose. But directly we step out of that kingdom, our personal liberty of action becomes qualified by other people’s liberty.‎ We all tend to forget this. A reasonable consideration for the rights or feelings of others is the base of social conduct.‎ ‎24. What does the first paragraph serve as?‎ A. A background. B. An introduction. C. A comment. D. An explanation.‎ ‎25. Which is an example of getting liberty-drunk?‎ A. Walk along the pavement. B. Park anywhere you like.‎ C. Make loud noises in the wild. D. Wear whatever you like.‎ ‎26. What might the author have stated his “rule of the road” (Paragraph 2) as?‎ A. Do what you like in private. B. Never walk in the middle of the road.‎ C. Follow the orders of policemen. D. Do not behave inconsiderately in public.‎ ‎27. What does the underlined word “qualified” (Paragraph 3) mean?‎ A. Limited. B. Ruined. C. Improved. D. Educated.‎ C A guiding principle for master cellist Yo-Yo Ma is that “the intersection(交汇) of cultures is where new things appear.” Certainly his biography is an intersection of cultures. He was born to Chinese parents in Paris‎, ‎France; both his parents were musicians. When he was seven, his family moved to the United States. Gifted for his age, Ma attended Juilliard, the world famous music institute. He then chose to earn a liberal arts degree at Harvard rather than focusing only on music.‎ Even in his earliest performing years, Yo-Yo Ma had a strong belief that it was important to share music with all kinds of people. Stories are told about how he once performed in the hallway of a large building for people who were unable to get tickets to his concert. He remained interested in making music accessible to diverse audiences and furthered his interest in different cultures when he visited the Bushmen of the Kalahari. He developed a vehicle to further these ideals when he founded the Silk Road Project.‎ As he has said, the Silk Road is a metaphor(隐喻) for a number of things: as the Internet of ancient times, the routes were used for trade, by religious people, adventurers, scientists, storytellers. Everything from algebra to Islam moved along the Silk Road. It’s the local-global thing. In the cultural world, you want to make sure that voices don’t get lost, that rich traditions continue to live, without becoming common.‎ This lesson explores the philosophy behind Yo-Yo Ma’s founding of the Silk Road Ensemble(乐团), his belief that the arts, and particularly music, can make the world better, and that through cooperation, one can both preserve tradition and shape cultural evolution. Students ‎ also explore their own attitudes toward the arts, writing reflective essays on how the arts have played a role in their own lives.‎ ‎28. What do we learn about Yo-Yo Ma according to Paragraph 1?‎ ‎ A. He studied music in France. B. He showed great musical talent.‎ ‎ C. He started his career in Harvard. D. He earned a liberal arts degree in Julliard.‎ ‎29. Which of the following can best replace the word “vehicle” in Paragraph 2?‎ ‎ A. Car. B. Project. C. Medium. D. Skill.‎ ‎30. What does Yo-Yo Ma think of the Silk Road?‎ ‎ A. It has significant influence on the world. ‎ ‎ B. Traditions are passed on through the route.‎ ‎ C. It simply helps with the spread of religions.‎ ‎ D. The route is key to musical development.‎ ‎31. Why did Yo-Yo Ma found the Silk Road Ensemble?‎ ‎ A. To foster cooperation in business.‎ ‎ B. To record the voices along the route.‎ ‎ C. To explore people’s attitude toward the arts.‎ ‎ D. To share music and promote cultural development.‎ D ‎ Nowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified foods (GM foods). GM foods develop from genetically modified organisms(有机体), which have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise where an organism is exposed to chemicals to create a non-specific but stable change. For many people, the high-tech production raises all kinds of environmental, ethical(伦理的), health and safety problems. Particularly in countries with long farming traditions, the idea seems against nature.‎ ‎ In fact, GM foods are already very much a part of our lives. They were first put on the market in 1996. A third of the corn and more than half the cotton grown in the U.S.‎ last year was the product of biotechnology, according to the Department of Agriculture. More than 65 million acres of genetically modified crops will be planted in the U.S.‎ this year. The genetic genie is out of the bottle.‎ ‎　　However, like any new product entering the food chain, GM foods must be subjected to careful testing. In wealthy countries, the debate about biotech is not so fierce by the fact that they have a large number of foods to choose from, and a supply that goes beyond the needs. In developing countries desperate to feed fast-growing and underfed populations, the matter is simpler and much more urgent: do the benefits of biotech outweigh the risks?‎ ‎　　The statistics on population growth and hunger are disturbing. Last year the world’s population reached 6 billion. The U.N. states that nearly 800 million people around the world are unhealthy. About 400 million women of childbearing age don’t have enough iron, which means their babies are exposed to various birth defects. As many as 100 million children suffer from vitamin A deficiency, a leading cause of blindness. ‎ ‎　　How can biotech help? Genetic engineering is widely used to produce plants and animals with better nutritional values. Biotechnologists have developed genetically modified rice and they are working on other kinds of nutritionally improved crops. Biotech can also improve farming productivity in places where food shortages are caused by crop damage attributable to drought, ‎ poor soil and crop viruses. ‎ ‎32. The passage mainly talks about ________.‎ A. the world’s food problem B. the development in biotech C. the genetically modified foods D. the way to solve food shortages ‎33. According to the passage, GM foods ________.‎ A. are far better than naturally grown foods ‎ B. will replace naturally grown foods C. may help to solve the problem of poor nutrition ‎ D. can cause serious trouble in developing countries ‎34. The underlined sentence “The genetic genie is out of the bottle.” in Paragraph 2 probably means that ________.‎ A. GM foods are available everywhere B. the technology in producing GM foods is advanced C. genetic technology may have uncontrollable powers D. genetic technology has come out of laboratories into markets ‎35. What’s the writer’s attitude towards GM foods?‎ A. Cautious. B. Enthusiastic. C. Disapproving. D. Unbelievable.‎ 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。‎ Psychologists have long said that connecting with others is an important part of happiness, but just how much conversation we require is under examination. In one study, researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of their conversation related with happiness. 36 Scientists believe that small talk could promote bounding. Late last year, Princeton researchers reported that small talk keeps closeness with loved ones and isn’t merely the stuff of awkward exchanges with strangers.‎ Still, chatting with strangers could brighten your morning. In a series of experiments, psychologists gave Chicago passengers different directions about whether to talk with fellow passengers---- something they typically avoided. 37 None of the chatters reported being rejected.‎ Small talk can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at, made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas(服务员) reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction(交易). 38 One report found that when volunteers broke the silence to chat with gallery goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected to the exhibit than those who were not approached.‎ ‎ ‎39 In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by researchers had trouble getting a conversation rolling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure(透露). But people who were considered “curious” needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges. 40 ‎ A. The same is true of gallery goers.‎ B. But don’t play down small talk just yet.‎ C. They found that small talk is related with happiness.‎ D. Those told to chat with others reported a more pleasant journey.‎ E. Making small talk is an important skill for all the social situations.‎ F. A “curious mindset”, the author concluded, can lead to “positive social interactions”.‎ G. Of course, some people are better than others at turning small talk into something bigger.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 1. 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I looked at my beautiful Christmas tree and sighed.

Many traffic accidents have happened due to the heavy smog weather. In addition, many flights have to be delayed and lots of people have to stay at home to avoid the poisonous air. What’s worse, many people have suffered from bad coughs, sore throats and other serious diseases caused by the smog.‎ Personally, I think not only the government but also everyone should try to make a difference. We can try to drive less and buy environmentally-friendly products. Only when everyone has the awareness can we have cleaner air.‎ Hoping to hear from you soon and share your good ideas.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua
