While Brussels, the country’s capital, is home to hundreds of chocolate makers, what makes a visit necessary is the rich heritage of traditional chocolate makers.‎ Budapest: Paprika (红辣椒)‎ The job of preparing paprika was once considered too dangerous for mothers to do. A woman who touched her children after that work risked burning them, so only the elderly and unmarried were allowed the demanding task of separating the skin from the flesh. But by the early 20th century, a machine turned paprika into a common feature of all Budapest cuisine.‎ Lisbon: Tiles (瓷砖)‎ Is there a bluer country than Portugal? The blue sky and Atlantic Ocean surround the land. ‎ The blue atmosphere of Fado and the dark folk music form the national soundtrack. And all across Portugal, the typically blue designs of tiles are spread across churches, castles, palaces, university halls, parks... , making Portugal a beautiful land of Christian saints, Portuguese kings, historical glories, landscapes and so on.‎ Madrid: Guitars Walking into one of Madrid’s guitar makers’ workshops can feel like stepping into the past. Curly wood shavings, from thepine to ebony(乌木）, fall onto the floor as makers turn the wood into works of art. It’s tough work — all done by hand — with classical guitar models and the making methods changing little over the last century.‎ ‎21. What does the job of preparing paprika suggest?‎ A. The popularity of paprika. ‎ B. The difficulty of paprika.‎ C. The unique tradition in Budapest. ‎ D. The hot level of paprika.‎ ‎22. Which city can be a splendid setting for a film?‎ A. Brussels.                 B. Budapest.                C. Lisbon.                   D. Madrid.‎ ‎23. What’s the similarity of the four items?‎ ‎ A. They’re treasures of a city.‎ B. They date back several centuries.‎ C. Their production processes are painstaking.‎ D. They win popularity in most European countries.‎ B Persuasion is the art of convincing someone to agree with you. According to the ancient Greeks, there are three basic tools of persuasion : ethos, pathos, and logos.‎ Ethos is a speakers’ way of convincing the audience that she is trustworthy, honest and reliable. One common way a speaker can develop ethos is by explaining how much experience or education she has in the field. After all, you’re more likely to listen to advice about how to take careof your teeth from a dentist than a fireman. A speaker can also create ethos by convincing the audience that she is a good person. If an audience cannot trust you, you will not be able to persuade them.‎ Pathos is a speaker’s way of connecting with an audience’s emotions. For example, a politician who is trying to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can save the country from a terrible war. These words are intended to fill the audience with fear, thus making them support him. Similarly, an animal charity might show an audience pictures of injured dogs and cats, to make the viewers feel pity. If the audience feels bad for the animals, they will be more likely to donate money.‎ Logos is the use of facts, statistics, or other evidence to support your argument. An audience will be more likely to believe you if you have convincing data to back up your claims. Presenting this evidence is much more persuasive than simply saying “believe me”. ‎ Although ethos, pathos, and logos all have their strengths, they are often most effective when used together. Indeed, most speakers use a combination of ethos, pathos, and logos to persuade their audiences. So, the next time you listen to a speech, watch a commercial, or listen to a friend try to convince you to lend him some money, be on thelookout for these ancient Greek tools of persuasion.‎ ‎24. Why does the author say persuasion is an art?‎ ‎ A. They both entertain the audience.‎ ‎ B. They both require great skill to achieve.‎ ‎ C. They both demand full attention from the audience.‎ ‎ D. They were both common topics of ancient Greek writers.‎ ‎25. How is a speaker able to show her ethos to the audience?‎ ‎ A. By expressing her sympathy with the audience.‎ ‎ B. By telling the audience about her personal preference.‎ ‎ C. By using beautiful language to make her statements attractive.‎ ‎ D. By showing her knowledge and experience relating to the topic. .‎ ‎26. What can we learn about the three aspects of persuasion?‎ ‎ A. Ethos is the most important aspect of persuasion.‎ ‎ B. Each aspect has a different effect on the audience.‎ ‎ C. Honesty is the key to making your arguments believable.‎ ‎ D. Political leaders mostly use pathos to persuade their audience.‎ ‎27. An advertisement for washing powder which claims “Our powder kills 95% of all bacteria.” ‎ It mainly used_________. ‎ ‎ A. ethos B. pathos C. logos D. a combination of all three C Researchers have long attributed the evolution of human intelligence to the size of the brain. It turns out that while a larger skull certainly helped, it was the extra blood sucked in by the brain that transformed humans into one of Earth’s smartest species. The surprising discovery that overturns the previous, long-standing theory comes from a team of scientists at the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa and the University of Adelaide in Australia.‎ Led by Professor Roger Seymour from University of Adelaide, the group examined several different fossil hominin(古人类) skulls ranging from the 3 million-year-old Australopithecus(南方古猿) to those of modern humans. However, they did not focus on the size of the head. Instead, the scientists carefully measured and documented the diameter of the holes at the base of each skull that accommodate the blood-delivering arteries(动脉).‎ The researchers discovered that the size of the holes increased rapidly over time, indicating that additional blood was being pumped into the brain. According to the team’s calculations, over the course of human evolution, the amount of blood supply increased by 600%, while the size of the human brain grew by only 350%.‎ The researchers said that as humans evolved, the brain required more oxygen and nutrients to finish tasks that required increased learning and problem solving. So the amount of blood flowing into the brain had to increase. This in turn, meant that the arteries transporting them had to grow as well, leading to the need for bigger holes. Therefore, the scientists, who published their findings in the journal Open Science on August 31, concluded that it was not the skull size but the more blood sucked in by the brain that helped with human intelligence.‎ ‎28. What makes a great contribution to human intelligence? ‎ A. The size of the brain.‎ B. The amount of blood flowing into the brain.‎ C. The health of the blood-delivering arteries.‎ D. The requirements of learning and problem solving.‎ ‎29. What did the researchers concentrate on in the study?‎ A. The size of the head. ‎ B. The blood-delivering arteries.‎ C. The size of the holes of each skull.‎ D. The quality of blood flowing into the brain.‎ ‎30. How did the researchers draw the conclusion?‎ A. By doing experiments. B. By telling stories.‎ C. By calculating and comparing. D. By giving examples and classifying.‎ ‎31. Which of the following is the right order of the factors given in the passage?‎ a. Humans had bigger holes of skull.‎ b. The arteries transporting blood had to grow.‎ c. Humans took on more complex tasks.‎ d. The brain increased the need for blood.‎ e. The brain needs more oxygen and nutrients.‎ A. c→e→d→b→a B. c→a→d→e→b C. b→a→e→b→c D. a→c→d→e→b D About 150 years ago, a village church priest, Patric Bronte, in Yorkshire, England, had three lovely, intelligent daughters but his hopes fell entirely on the only son, Branwell, a youth with remarkable talent in both art and literature.‎ Branwell’s father and sisters saved their pennies to pack him off to London’s Royal Academy of Arts, but if art was his calling, he dialed a wrong number. Within weeks he dropped out of the school, a penniless failure.‎ Hopes still high, the family landed Branwell a job as a private tutor, hoping this would free him to develop his literary skills and achieve the success and fame that he deserved. Failure again. ‎ Still, the selfless sisters squelched their own goals, farming themselves out as teachers and governesses in support of their increasingly indebted brother, convinced the world must eventually recognize his genius. As failure multiplied, Branwell turned to alcohol, then opium, and eventually died as he had lived: a failure. So died hope in the one male — but what of the three sisters?‎ During Branwell’s last years, the girls published a book of poetry at their own expense (under a pen name, for fear of reviewers’ bias against females). Even Branwell might have laughed: they sold only two copies.‎ They didn’t give up. Instead, they continued in their spare time, late at night by candle light,‎ ‎ to pour out their contained emotion, writing of what they knew best, of women in conflict with their natural desires and social condition, in reality, less fiction than autobiography! And 19th century literature was transformed by Anne’s Agnes Grey, Emily’s Wuthering Heights, and Charlotte’s Jane Eyre.‎ But years of sacrifice for Branwell had eventually ruined their health. Emily took ill at her brother’s funeral and died within 3 months, aged 29; Anne died 5 months later, aged 30; Charlotte lived only to age 39. If only they had been nurtured instead of sacrificed.‎ No one remembers Branwell’s name, much less of his art or literature, but the Bronte sisters’ tragically short lives teach us even more of life than literature.‎ ‎32. According to the passage, what can we learn from the story of Branwell?‎ A. Gift is not necessarily a guarantee of success.‎ B. Gift is a burden for a person.‎ C. A person’s success is largely due to the support of his family.‎ D. Too many choices may lead to success in none.‎ ‎33. What might lead to the tragedy of the three Bronte sisters?‎ A. That to be a writer was a really tough road to go B. The social prejudice against women in those days C. Their poor family D. The failure of their brother.‎ ‎34. Which word is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “squelched” in paragraph 4?‎ A. carried out B. lived out C. set aside D. stuck to ‎35. Were Patric Bronte alive, what might he regret most?‎ A. Not taking good care of his children. ‎ B. Intending his son for an artist or a writer.‎ C. Putting all of his eggs in one male basket. ‎ D. Sacrificing too many pennies for his son. ‎ 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。 ‎ ‎ 36 . Humans are naturally wired to sleep best at night and be awake during the day.‎ ‎ However, modern work schedules require some people to try to accommodate the unnatural schedule of shift(轮班) work.

For as long as I could remember I had struggled with anxiety. After I left university, I made friends with a Moroccan woman at work. One day she invited me to 42 her and her family back home. I ‎ wanted to, but I would have to travel there 43 and I knew we would be in a very rural area. How would I cope with my 44 ?‎ ‎ Then one day it 45 to me that I had a life to live.

I managed to cope with my anxiety. The sense of 48 was overwhelming and still to this day when I get afraid of going somewhere alone, I remember how 49 it felt when I arrived in Morocco.‎ ‎ Upon arrival I was so 50 for the generous welcome I received. My friend’s family had arranged a welcome party. The people were so loving toward me. As a moment of love felt in a faraway village, this 51 me that I was “good enough”, which helped to 52 my anxiety. Waking up the next day, in the morning light, I saw the area where we were. I was 53 by how rural it was – and the realization that these people had very few 54 .‎ ‎ In the days afterwards, I traveled around Morocco. We went to Marrakesh and 55 the Atlas mountains. We had the most amazing food – lots of fresh fruits and vegetables.‎ ‎ At the end of my 56 something inside me had changed. I realized I had not felt anxious for nearly two weeks.‎ Experiencing a different culture far away from home helped me to realize what is important in life, what really 57 , and with that my anxiety 58 . When I returned home I was much more active in 59 my anxiety. Working with people, helping them 60 their anxiety, is how I can share the love I found in Morocco.‎ ‎41. A. Thus B. But C. Since D.
