A myth is something that is not correct, but many people believe it. There are a lot of myths about the human brain.
One of the biggest myths is that we only use 10% of our brains. The next part of the myth is that if we can learn to use the rest of our brains, then we’ll be much smarter. People say this all the time, but it’s completely not true! The truth is that although we don’t know everything about the human brain, we know that each part of it has an important function (功能). Modern scientists think the “10% myth” silly.
The other most popular myth is about being “right brained” or “left brained”. According to this myth people who use the right side of their brains are more artistic and creative. People who use the left side of their brains are better at math and science. This is as popular as the 10% myth, and it’s also wrong. In 2013, a study at an American university tested the right brain and left brain myth. The study shows we use the left brain as much as the right brain.
It’s true that we use different parts of our brains for different things. We use our left side for language more, and our right side when we need to pay attention. But there is no evidence (证据) that creative people use the right side more or that scientific people use the left side more.
We’ve talked about myths, so let’s look at a few interesting facts about the brain. First of all, the brain feels no pain. Second, about 75% of the brain is made of water. It’s also the fattest organ (器官) in your body. Here’s another interesting fact about the brain. Around the time you turn 18 years old, it stops growing.
4. What do scientists think of the “10% myth”?
A. Not important. B. Not useful. C. Not true.
5. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The left brain myth. B. The right brain and left brain myth. C. The use of human brains.
6. According to the facts mentioned in the passage, ______ may use the left brain more.
A. Robert, who is learning English B. Kate, who is drawing pictures C. Jenny, who is designing clothes
7. Which of the following is TRUE about the human brain?
A. It is growing all life long. B. The right side is used more by artists. C. Three quarters of it is made of water.
C
There are always lots of strange stories about protecting your eyes. For example, you might have been told that you’d go blind from reading in the dark, but you could make up (弥补) for it by eating carrots. This is just one of the wrong ideas you may have heard of. A magazine has picked out scientific explanations (解释) for three mistakes the people often make about the eyes. Let’s take a look.
Can eating carrots make your eyesight better?
Carrots are rich in vitamin A, which is important and necessary for your eyes’ general health. Vitamin A helps eyes to make light into signals (信号), allowing people to see in low light conditions. However, eating more carrots doesn’t help you see better.
If your parents have bad eyesight, will you have bad eyesight, too?
Myopia (近视) can be passed from parents to children. A study by the American Optometric Association found that if both parents are myopia, there is a 33 to 60 percent chance that the child is. For children who have one parent with myopia, the chance is 23 to 40 percent, and it’s down to 6 to 15 percent for kids with non-myopia parents. So no matter how bad your parents’ eyesight is, you should protect your eyes.
Is it true that people who are color blind can’t see colors?
Color blindness doesn’t mean that someone can’t see colors at all like a black and white movie. It means that someone has difficulty telling some colors apart (分开), usually green and red or blue and yellow. Color blindness is usually a condition caused by not having color cells (细胞). If the cells don’t respond in the right way to differences in wavelengths (波长) of light, color blindness happens. There are different levels of color blindness.
8. If both Tom’s parents are myopia, how much could be his chance of having bad eyesight?
A. 6% — 15%. B. 23% — 40%. C. 33% — 60%.
9. What does the underlined word “respond” mean in Chinese?
A. 控制 B. 反应 C. 逃跑
10. According to the passage, how does the writer describe color blindness?
A. Not having color cells can cause color blindness.
B. Those who can’t tell green from red are not really color blindness.
C. People who are color blind can only see black and white.
11. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Misunderstanding About Eyes B. Advice on Protecting Your Eyes C. Reasons for Color Blindness

As for us, fifteen-year-olds, who are finishing middle school, we’re no longer younger children. ___14___ When we start to have a sense of offering a helping hand for a cleaner city and greener world, and when we have a loving heart to think more of others than of ourselves and are ready to help them, we can say that we have grown up.

A. Nature is the most important thing to us.
B. We should know whether or not we have grown up.

A myth is something that is not correct, but many people believe it. There are a lot of myths about the human brain.
One of the biggest myths is that we only use 10% of our brains. The next part of the myth is that if we can learn to use the rest of our brains, then we’ll be much smarter. People say this all the time, but it’s completely not true! The truth is that although we don’t know everything about the human brain, we know that each part of it has an important function (功能). Modern scientists think the “10% myth” silly.
The other most popular myth is about being “right brained” or “left brained”. According to this myth, people who use the right side of their brains are more artistic and creative. People who use the left side of their brains are better at math and science. This is as popular as the 10% myth, and it’s also wrong.

Firstly, you can leave the bottles there as they are. ___12___ Why should you do something about it? This is quite OK. Secondly, you can pick them up and throw them into a dustbin (垃圾箱). By doing this, you have walked a step further to help make our home clean. This action is a better choice. Thirdly, you might want to pick them up and give them to an old man or woman who collects waste for a living. ___13___ You’re not only thinking about doing something for the environment, you’re also developing yourself to be a person who would think of others and help them.
As for young kids, they may always have such a question: “When do I grow up?” Yes! When does a child grow up? And how can a kid know he or she has grown up? These are interesting questions. As for us, fifteen-year-olds, who are finishing middle school, we’re no longer younger children. ___14___ When we start to have a sense of offering a helping hand for a cleaner city and greener world, and when we have a loving heart to think more of others than of ourselves and are ready to help them, we can say that we have grown up.
Remember: ___15___ If we do our best for nature, nature will offer its best to us in return!

【12题详解】
根据上文“Firstly, you can leave the bottles there as they are.”和下文“Why should you do something about it?”可知,此处是指不理睬废旧瓶子的原因;选项E“不是你把它们扔掉的。”符合语境。故选E。
【13题详解】
根据上文“Secondly, you can pick them up and throw them into a dustbin. By doing this, you have walked a step further to help make our home clean.”和下文“You’re not only thinking about doing something for the environment, you’re also developing yourself to be a person who would think of others and help them.”可知,把废旧瓶子拾起来并给拾荒的老人,不仅帮助改善了环境,也在为他人着想,帮助了别人;所以此处是对这种选择进行更高的评价;选项C“如果这是你的选择,你已经走得更远了。”符合语境。故选C。
【14题详解】
根据上文“As for us, fifteen-year-olds, who are finishing middle school, we’re no longer younger children.”和下文“When we start to have a sense of offering a helping hand for a cleaner city and greener world, and when we have a loving heart to think more of others than of ourselves and are ready to help them, we can say that we have grown up.”可知,15岁了,“我”们已经不再是小孩子了,所以此处是指“我”们应该知晓自己是否已经长大;选项B“我们应该知道我们是否长大了。”符合语境。故选B。
【15题详解】
根据上文“Remember:”和下文“If we do our best for nature, nature will offer its best to us in return!”可知,此处是指从这件事情中收获的道理;选项D“如果我们帮助别人,别人也会帮助我们。”符合语境。故选D。

Whoosh! The window flew wide open. Mary sat up, and through the window she saw a dodo standing in her yard!
“I lived over four hundred years ago,” the dodo said. “But then terrible ___28___ (thing) happened. Forests ___29___ (cut) down by humans, so we had nothing to eat. We all died.” The dodo felt sad.

【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了玛丽看书睡着后做的一个梦,梦里几种动物因为不同的原因在地球上消失,从而告诉我们要采取行动为动物和人类建立一个和平的世界。
【26题详解】
句意:玛丽躺在床上,感到很困。feel在这里意为“感到”,是系动词,后面需接形容词作表语,因此应填sleep的形容词形式sleepy,表示“困倦的;瞌睡的”。故填sleepy。
【27题详解】
句意:她打开一本书,读了开头的几个字:“渡渡鸟是一种不会飞的鸟……”,然后很快她就睡着了。根据上一句中的“was”以及本句中的“read”和“fell”可知,应用一般过去时,所以应填open的过去式opened。故填opened。
【28题详解】
句意:但随后发生了可怕的事情。thing意为“事情”,是可数名词,前面没有表示“一个”的限定词,因此应填其复数形式things。故填things。
【29题详解】
句意:森林被人类砍伐,所以我们没有什么东西吃。主语“森林”和谓语“砍伐”之间是被动关系,所以应用被动语态;根据“so we had nothing to eat”可知,应用一般过去时的被动语态。故填were cut。
【30题详解】
句意:在它说另一句话之前,一只象鸟走过来说:“我是有史以来最重的鸟。我有半吨重。但我们在一千多年前就消失了,因为人类让我们失去了家园。”elephant bird意为“象鸟”,是可数名词单数,前面应填表示“一只”的不定冠词,又因为elephant以元音音素开头,所以应填an。故填an。
【31题详解】
句意:在它说另一句话之前,一只象鸟走过来说:“我是有史以来最重的鸟。我有半吨重。但我们在一千多年前就消失了,因为人类让我们失去了家园。”根据“that has ever lived”可知,此处应填形容词heavy的最高级形式。故填heaviest。
【32题详解】
句意:在它说另一句话之前,一只象鸟走过来说:“我是有史以来最重的鸟。我有半吨重。但我们在一千多年前就消失了,因为人类让我们失去了家园。”根据句意可知“But we disappeared over a thousand years ago”和“humans made us lose our homes”之间存在因果关系,并且属于前果后因,所以应填引导原因状语从句的从属连词because。故填because。
【33题详解】
句意:除了她手里的那本书,什么也看不见。根据名词“hand手”可知,此处应填形容词性物主代词“her她的”。故填her。
【34题详解】
句意:但有一种悲伤的感觉留在了她的心里。介词of后需跟名词,形容词“sad悲伤的”的名词形式是“sadness悲伤”。故填sadness。
【35题详解】
句意:为什么不采取行动为动物和人类建立一个和平的世界呢?根据句意可知“build a peaceful world for both animals and humans”是“take action”的目的;动词不定式可以用作状语表示目的,因此应填build的动词不定式形式。故填to build。
