In this course, we’ll push ourselves creatively, freely playing with words and exploring new ideas. By the end, you will have writing works of at least five poems, three pieces of mini-fiction, or two short essays, as well as dozens of pages of free-writing and lists of ideas for future writing projects. Designed for people new to creative writing, the course includes word play, experimentation of structure, and live-writing to develop thoughts that might later grow into poems or other styles of writing. To do this, we’ll first learn from the Surrealists, who tried to inspire the imagination by focusing on process, as we apply intuition (直觉), chance, and surprise to our writing practice. Next, we’ll set about writing on the blank page based on John Keats’ concept of negative capability, by which we’ll be capable of being in uncertainties, mysteries (神秘), doubts without any hurriedly reaching after facts and reason. Then we’ll make creative use of other art forms, thus seeing how sight can lead to insight. In the fourth step, we’ll explore modes of imagery, including the bodily senses, and we’ll be encouraged to write across text types, create diverse works, and cooperate with each other. Class discussions will center on the writing process, the writer’s life and how to best deal with the four stages of writing. In just a few weeks, you’ll develop from inexperienced beginner to a creative writer who knows how to command the blank page, as well as methods for finalizing works-in-progress. Schedule: Beginning February 14th, we will meet every Wednesday from 7 to 8 p.m. Eastern. The last time we meet will be on March 27th. 21. Whom is this course intended for? A. Readers interested in poetry. B. Beginners of creative writing. C. Students enjoying playing games. D. Writers of contemporary literature. 22. What will be done in the third step? A. Inspiring imagination. B. Creating various works. C. Developing critical thinking. D. Using other art forms creatively. 23. How long will the course last? A. For one week. B. For two weeks. C. For four weeks. D. For six weeks. B People’s first memories are all autobiographical (自传式的), or memories of significant experiences in their lives, and these events typically didn’t happen before the age of 2 or 3. In fact, most people can’t remember things from the first few years of their lives—a phenomenon researchers have called infantile amnesia. However, research suggests that infants (婴儿) can form other kinds of memories. Within the first few days of life, infants can recall their own mother’s face and distinguish it from the face of a stranger. A few months later, infants can demonstrate that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at the ones they see most often. But if so, why do people experience infantile amnesia? Though it still isn’t clear whether it’s because we can’t form autobiographical memories, or whether we just have no way to retrieve (找回) them, scientists have a few guesses. One is that autobiographical memories require you to have some sense of self. Researchers have tested this ability using a mirror recognition task called the rouge test. It involves marking a baby’s nose with a spot of red lipstick. Researchers then place the infant in front of a mirror. Infants younger than 18 months just smile at the baby in the reflection, not showing any evidence of recognizing themselves or the red mark on their face. Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting that they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face—they start to form some sense of self. Another possible explanation is that because infants don’t have language until later in the second year of life, they can’t form narratives about their own lives that they can later recall. Finally, the hippocampus (海马体), which is the region of the brain that’s largely responsible for memory, isn’t fully developed in the infancy period. Scientists will continue to investigate how these factors may contribute to infantile amnesia. 24. What can infants do in their first few months? A. Memorize most of their family members. B. Distinguish between familiar and unfamiliar faces. C. Remember a string of events from the recent past. D. Identify their own reflections in the mirror. 25. What do infants tend to do after 18 months according to the rouge test? A. See their reflections as themselves. B. Ignore the marks on their faces. C. Enjoy playing with their reflections. D. Show a strong interest in the mirror. 26. What could be a cause of infantile amnesia, according to the text? A. Infants’ inability to recall memories. B. Infants’ immature hippocampus. C. Infants’ undeveloped communication skills. D. Infants’ unsteady autobiographical memories. 27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. When do babies start remembering things? B. Why is it hard to retrieve lost memories? C. How do kids form their first memories? D. Why can’t we remember being a baby? C I’d finally got some alone time as a new mom. I put on my running shoes and I found my rhythm as my feet hit the ground. My adrenaline (肾上腺素) kicked in as I told myself, “This is my comeback.” Prior to giving birth to a baby, I had been a runner since my 20s. Running made me feel free and it brought me a sense of peace I couldn’t find anywhere else. The harder my feet worked, the more I relaxed. Now, as a new mom in my late 30s, I was picking running back up to prove to myself I was still the old me. However, it was not easy. My legs were weak as I shuffled (拖着脚走) down the track. I felt defeated. The old me had never felt so far away. Running felt like a burden, and the joy was far away from me. Even worse, I felt like a living dead at home. My son wasn’t sleeping through the night, which was exhausting all my extra energy. However, I kept going. I went out for a run again and again. A few times a week, I pulled on my shoes and slowly, my one mile route turned into a 5kilometer. Gone were the debates in my head over whether I was a good mom and whether my house would ever be clean again. Running just let me be. I had signed up for the half marathon I ran annually before my son was born as a motivation. When I began running, the marathon route felt so long, but then suddenly, it was over. When I crossed the finish line, I felt like a champion wearing my participant’s medal. My finish time was just a number; what mattered more to me was the journey. Through my running experience, I have realized that nothing is impossible to a willing heart, not only running, but also anything else. 28. Why did the author run in her twenties? A. To enjoy some alone time. B. To maintain a good figure. C. To keep physical health. D. To pursue inner peace. 29. Which of the following words can best describe the author? A. Proud. B. Determined. C. Outgoing. D. Modest. 30. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph? A. The author occasionally joined in the marathon before. B. Half marathon seemed longer than expected all the way. C. What is worth doing well is to achieve high scores. D. What the author can gain during the process matters most. 31. What message does the article convey to readers? A. Where there is a will, there is a way. B. A good beginning is half success. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Time lost cannot be regained. D Diet containing lots of salt can contribute to increased levels of stress, a new study shows. Scientists found in studies of mice that a high-salt diet increased the levels of a stress hormone by 75 per cent. Experts hope the findings will encourage a review of public health policy around salt consumption, aiming at manufacturers reducing the amount of salt in processed food. The recommended salt intake for adults is less than six grams a day but most people regularly eat about nine grams. This can contribute to higher blood pressure, which increases the risks of heart attacks, strokes and dementia. While effects on the heart and circulatory(循环) system have been ascertained, little was known about the impact of a high-salt diet on a person’s behaviour. To study this, experts from the University of Edinburgh used mice, who ordinarily have a low-salt diet, and gave them high-salt food to reflect the typical intake of humans. They found that not only did resting stress hormone levels increase, but the mice’s hormone response to environmental stress was double that of mice that had a normal diet. Salt intake increased the activity of genes that produce the proteins in the brain which control how the body responds to stress. Experts say further studies are already underway to understand if a high-salt intake leads to other behavioural changes such as anxiety and aggression. Matthew Bailey, professor of Renal Physiology at the University of Edinburgh’s Centre for Cardiovascular Science, said: “We are what we eat and understanding how high-salt food changes our mental health is an important step to improving wellbeing. We know that eating too much salt damages our heart, blood vessels(血管) and kidneys. This study now tells us that high salt in our food also changes the way our brain handles stress.” 32. What are the findings expected to bring about eventually? A. Manufacturers adding less salt to processed food. B. People debating the policy on public health. C. Decreased levels of stress hormones. D. Reduced amount of processed food. 33. What does the underlined word “ascertained” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Ignored. B. Restored. C. Reduced. D. Confirmed. 34. Which of the following may be a subject of further research? A. What policy on salt should be. B. How a high-salt intake affects blood pressure. C. How much salt intake is appropriate. D. Whether a high-salt intake causes anxiety. 35. What may be a suitable little for the text? A. Most people regularly take in too much salt. B. Mental health is important to improving well being. C. Diet containing much salt increases levels of stress. D. Less than six grams of salt a day is recommended. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 What’s in a Game?

For example, Hockey games and Risk, a kind of card game, have one thing in common — when one player or team reaches the final objective, they win. ____38____ Next, you’ll need rules to let your players know what they can and can’t do.

Rules set limits and define what the game is — and what it isn’t. Players need to know what they can and can’t do, and what will happen when they do different things. Meaningful Choices While you are creating your rules, think about the choices players will make and what effects those choices will have. ____39____. If the same thing happens no matter what choice the player makes, they’ll wonder why they have to choose. Don’t Forget to Playtest!

Situations might come up that you didn’t expect. ____40____. A. The Place B. The Rules C. What can your players do D. What if you could invent your own game E. Every choice a player makes needs to have an effect on the gameplay F The best way to make sure your game is playable and fun is to playtest it G.

Her kidney (肾脏) proved to be a perfect match for her cousin, Dana, who is a teacher. Her kidney had worsened to the point where she required a transplant (移植). As Kelly told Dana, “I’m in good health and I almost never get sick or ill. It seems that I can be a donor for you.” Dana was wild with joy. Later on a Thursday afternoon, after spending the first of two days undergoing tests to confirm her kidney was a match for Dana, Kelly got a call from a Cleveland Clinic caregiver. They were canceling the second day of her tests. A CT scan revealed the presence of a tumor (肿瘤) on Kelly’s right kidney. Kelly was shocked about the discovery and concerned she might no longer be a donor available for Dana. That meant that Kelly had to have an operation to remove the tumor, unable to donate her kidney. Meanwhile Dana had to wait for some other donors for a matchable kidney, which was really hard to find. Dana was thrown back to desperation. The cousins were at a loss. But their doctors wouldn’t give up. They tried every possible means to find a solution that could satisfy both sides, treating Kelly’s illness and offering Dana transplanting. But the bad news was that there had been few such reported cases. Determined to solve this difficult problem, Dr. Wee, director of the Kidney Transplant Program, held meetings with a team of specialists to discuss over details of the case and best steps to move forward. They worked day and night to search for related information and make analysis. Seeing the devotion of the experts, Kelly and Dana felt the flame of hope returning to their hearts. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After many meetings, the medical team felt confident to treat the two patients at the same time. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The cousins recovered from their surgeries. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ( 3 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null Unit 2 单元检测卷 英 语 总分：150 分 考试时间：120 分钟 第I卷（选择题） 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 (共 5 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 7.5 分) 听下面 5 段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的 A、B、C 三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

We’re not looking for special technical skills - just the imagination to take a good picture. Last year, the topic for our competition was wildlife and we received many excellent photos. This year, we’d like your photos to be on the subject of the sea. This is the only requirement. It doesn’t matter whether your photo is in color or black and white. The size of the photos was limited to 17 cm long and 12 cm wide last year, but there’s no limit on that this year. A team of professional photographers will judge the photos and they’ll choose the four that they think show the most promise. The winner will receive a camera, while the second prize will be free photography lessons. Those in third and fourth place will receive a photography book. If you’re interested, we’d like you to post your photos to us here at Star Radio, 24 Woodstock Square, London. Your photos need to reach us by the 10th of August so you have a few weeks before the closing date. The results of the competition will be announced on this program on the 15 th. There will be a chance to see all the photographs into the competition at an exhibition at the museum. This will start on the 20th of August and stay open until 27th. 第二部分 阅读 (共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A IT STARTS WITH PLAY: GET INTO WRITING Meet me on the page. In this course, we’ll push ourselves creatively, freely playing with words and exploring new ideas. By the end, you will have writing works of at least five poems, three pieces of mini-fiction, or two short essays, as well as dozens of pages of free-writing and lists of ideas for future writing projects. Designed for people new to creative writing, the course includes word play, experimentation of structure, and live-writing to develop thoughts that might later grow into poems or other styles of writing. To do this, we’ll first learn from the Surrealists, who tried to inspire the imagination by focusing on process, as we apply intuition (直觉), chance, and surprise to our writing practice. Next, we’ll set about writing on the blank page based on John Keats’ concept of negative capability, by which we’ll be capable of being in uncertainties, mysteries (神秘), doubts without any hurriedly reaching after facts and reason. Then we’ll make creative use of other art forms, thus seeing how sight can lead to insight. In the fourth step, we’ll explore modes of imagery, including the bodily senses, and we’ll be encouraged to write across text types, create diverse works, and cooperate with each other. Class discussions will center on the writing process, the writer’s life and how to best deal with the four stages of writing. In just a few weeks, you’ll develop from inexperienced beginner to a creative writer who knows how to command the blank page, as well as methods for finalizing works-in-progress. Schedule: Beginning February 14th, we will meet every Wednesday from 7 to 8 p.m. Eastern. The last time we meet will be on March 27th. 21. Whom is this course intended for? A. Readers interested in poetry. B. Beginners of creative writing. C. Students enjoying playing games. D. Writers of contemporary literature. 22. What will be done in the third step? A. Inspiring imagination. B. Creating various works. C. Developing critical thinking. D. Using other art forms creatively. 23. How long will the course last? A. For one week. B. For two weeks. C. For four weeks. D. For six weeks. 【答案】21. B 22. D 23. D 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了一个线上写作指导课。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Designed for people new to creative writing, the course includes word play, experimentation of structure, and live-writing to develop thoughts that might later grow into poems or other styles of writing.(该课程是为刚接触创意写作的人设计的，包括文字游戏、结构实验和现场写作，以培养后来可能发展成诗歌或其他写作风格的思想。)”可知，本课程是为创意写作初学者设置的。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“we’ll first”“Next”“Then”“In the fourth step”可知，第三步是“Then we’ll make creative use of other art forms, thus seeing how sight can lead to insight.(然后我们将创造性地利用其他艺术形式，从而了解视觉如何产生洞察力。)”可知，第三步是创造性地利用其他艺术形式。故选D。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Schedule: Beginning February 14th, we will meet every Wednesday from 7 to 8 p.m. Eastern. The last time we meet will be on March 27th.(日程安排：从2月14日开始，我们将于每周三东部时间晚上7点至8点举行会议。我们最后一次见面将在3月27日。)”可知，该课程从2月14日持续到3月27日，总共为42天，即6周。故选D。 B People’s first memories are all autobiographical (自传式的), or memories of significant experiences in their lives, and these events typically didn’t happen before the age of 2 or 3. In fact, most people can’t remember things from the first few years of their lives—a phenomenon researchers have called infantile amnesia. However, research suggests that infants (婴儿) can form other kinds of memories. Within the first few days of life, infants can recall their own mother’s face and distinguish it from the face of a stranger. A few months later, infants can demonstrate that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at the ones they see most often. But if so, why do people experience infantile amnesia? Though it still isn’t clear whether it’s because we can’t form autobiographical memories, or whether we just have no way to retrieve (找回) them, scientists have a few guesses. One is that autobiographical memories require you to have some sense of self. Researchers have tested this ability using a mirror recognition task called the rouge test. It involves marking a baby’s nose with a spot of red lipstick. Researchers then place the infant in front of a mirror. Infants younger than 18 months just smile at the baby in the reflection, not showing any evidence of recognizing themselves or the red mark on their face. Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting that they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face—they start to form some sense of self. Another possible explanation is that because infants don’t have language until later in the second year of life, they can’t form narratives about their own lives that they can later recall. Finally, the hippocampus (海马体), which is the region of the brain that’s largely responsible for memory, isn’t fully developed in the infancy period. Scientists will continue to investigate how these factors may contribute to infantile amnesia. 24. What can infants do in their first few months? A. Memorize most of their family members. B. Distinguish between familiar and unfamiliar faces. C. Remember a string of events from the recent past. D. Identify their own reflections in the mirror. 25. What do infants tend to do after 18 months according to the rouge test? A. See their reflections as themselves. B. Ignore the marks on their faces. C. Enjoy playing with their reflections. D. Show a strong interest in the mirror. 26. What could be a cause of infantile amnesia, according to the text? A. Infants’ inability to recall memories. B. Infants’ immature hippocampus. C. Infants’ undeveloped communication skills. D. Infants’ unsteady autobiographical memories. 27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. When do babies start remembering things? B. Why is it hard to retrieve lost memories? C. How do kids form their first memories? D. Why can’t we remember being a baby? 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了婴儿期的遗忘现象，即婴儿时期的记忆称为“婴儿遗忘症”，并列举了几种可能的解释，包括自我意识的发展、语言的缺乏以及海马体的未完全发育等。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Within the first few days of life, infants can recall their own mother’s face and distinguish it from the face of a stranger. A few months later, infants can demonstrate that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at the ones they see most often.(在生命的最初几天里，婴儿可以回忆起自己母亲的脸，并将其与陌生人的脸区分开来。几个月后，婴儿可以通过对他们最常看到的面孔微笑来证明他们记得很多熟悉的面孔)”可知，在出生的前几个月里，婴儿可以辨别熟悉和不熟悉的面孔。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“Infants younger than 18 months just smile at the baby in the reflection, not showing any evidence of recognizing themselves or the red mark on their face.( 18个月以下的婴儿只是对着镜子中的婴儿微笑，没有任何迹象表明他们认识自己或脸上的红色标记。)”以及“ Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting that they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face—they start to form some sense of self.(在18到24个月之间，婴儿摸自己的鼻子，甚至看起来很尴尬，这表明他们把镜子里的红点和自己的脸联系在一起——他们开始形成某种自我意识。)”可知，在实验测试期间，18个月之后的婴儿会触摸自己的鼻子，甚至感到尴尬，表明他们将镜子中的红点与自己的脸联系起来，开始形成一定的自我意识，即认出了自己。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Finally, the hippocampus (海马体), which is the region of the brain that’s largely responsible for memory, isn’t fully developed in the infancy period. (最后，海马体，大脑中主要负责记忆的区域，在婴儿时期并没有完全发育。)”可知，“婴儿遗忘症”的一个可能原因是婴儿的海马体不成熟。故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“In fact, most people can’t remember things from the first few years of their lives—a phenomenon researchers have called infantile amnesia.(事实上，大多数人都不记得生命最初几年的事情——研究人员将这种现象称为婴儿健忘症。)”以及通读全文，文章介绍了婴儿期的遗忘现象，并列举了几种可能的解释，包括自我意识的发展、语言的缺乏以及海马体的未完全发育等。D选项“Why can’t we remember being a baby?( 为什么我们不记得自己是婴儿？)”概括文章主要内容，符合文章的标题，故选D。 C I’d finally got some alone time as a new mom. I put on my running shoes and I found my rhythm as my feet hit the ground. My adrenaline (肾上腺素) kicked in as I told myself, “This is my comeback.” Prior to giving birth to a baby, I had been a runner since my 20s. Running made me feel free and it brought me a sense of peace I couldn’t find anywhere else. The harder my feet worked, the more I relaxed. Now, as a new mom in my late 30s, I was picking running back up to prove to myself I was still the old me. However, it was not easy. My legs were weak as I shuffled (拖着脚走) down the track. I felt defeated. The old me had never felt so far away. Running felt like a burden, and the joy was far away from me. Even worse, I felt like a living dead at home. My son wasn’t sleeping through the night, which was exhausting all my extra energy. However, I kept going. I went out for a run again and again. A few times a week, I pulled on my shoes and slowly, my one mile route turned into a 5kilometer. Gone were the debates in my head over whether I was a good mom and whether my house would ever be clean again. Running just let me be. I had signed up for the half marathon I ran annually before my son was born as a motivation. When I began running, the marathon route felt so long, but then suddenly, it was over. When I crossed the finish line, I felt like a champion wearing my participant’s medal. My finish time was just a number; what mattered more to me was the journey. Through my running experience, I have realized that nothing is impossible to a willing heart, not only running, but also anything else. 28. Why did the author run in her twenties? A. To enjoy some alone time. B. To maintain a good figure. C. To keep physical health. D. To pursue inner peace. 29. Which of the following words can best describe the author? A. Proud. B. Determined. C. Outgoing. D. Modest. 30. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph? A. The author occasionally joined in the marathon before. B. Half marathon seemed longer than expected all the way. C. What is worth doing well is to achieve high scores. D. What the author can gain during the process matters most. 31. What message does the article convey to readers? A. Where there is a will, there is a way. B. A good beginning is half success. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Time lost cannot be regained. 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. D 31. A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了刚刚生产完的妈妈意志坚定地参加马拉松的故事。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Running made me feel free and it brought me a sense of peace I couldn’t find anywhere else. The harder my feet worked, the more I relaxed.(跑步让我感到自由，带给我一种在其他地方找不到的平静感。我的脚越用力，我就越放松)”可知，作者跑步的原因是追求内心的平静，故选D项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“However, I kept going. I went out for a run again and again. A few times a week, I pulled on my shoes and slowly, my one mile route turned into a 5kilometer.(然而，我继续前进。我一次又一次地出去跑步。一周几次，我穿上鞋子，慢慢地，我的一英里路线变成了五公里)”可知，作者是意志坚定的。故选B项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“My finish time was just a number; what mattered more to me was the journey.( 我的完成时间只是一个数字；对我来说更重要的是旅程)”可知，对作者而言在跑步过程中所获得的是最重要的。故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Through my running experience, I have realized that nothing is impossible to a willing heart, not only running, but also anything else.(通过我的跑步经历，我意识到，对于一颗愿意的心，没有什么是不可能的，不仅是跑步，还有其他任何事情)”可知，本文给我们的人生启发是“有志者，事竟成”。故选A项。 D Diet containing lots of salt can contribute to increased levels of stress, a new study shows. Scientists found in studies of mice that a high-salt diet increased the levels of a stress hormone by 75 per cent. Experts hope the findings will encourage a review of public health policy around salt consumption, aiming at manufacturers reducing the amount of salt in processed food. The recommended salt intake for adults is less than six grams a day but most people regularly eat about nine grams. This can contribute to higher blood pressure, which increases the risks of heart attacks, strokes and dementia. While effects on the heart and circulatory(循环) system have been ascertained, little was known about the impact of a high-salt diet on a person’s behaviour. To study this, experts from the University of Edinburgh used mice, who ordinarily have a low-salt diet, and gave them high-salt food to reflect the typical intake of humans. They found that not only did resting stress hormone levels increase, but the mice’s hormone response to environmental stress was double that of mice that had a normal diet. Salt intake increased the activity of genes that produce the proteins in the brain which control how the body responds to stress. Experts say further studies are already underway to understand if a high-salt intake leads to other behavioural changes such as anxiety and aggression. Matthew Bailey, professor of Renal Physiology at the University of Edinburgh’s Centre for Cardiovascular Science, said: “We are what we eat and understanding how high-salt food changes our mental health is an important step to improving wellbeing. We know that eating too much salt damages our heart, blood vessels(血管) and kidneys. This study now tells us that high salt in our food also changes the way our brain handles stress.” 32. What are the findings expected to bring about eventually? A. Manufacturers adding less salt to processed food. B. People debating the policy on public health. C. Decreased levels of stress hormones. D. Reduced amount of processed food. 33. What does the underlined word “ascertained” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Ignored. B. Restored. C. Reduced. D. Confirmed. 34. Which of the following may be a subject of further research? A. What policy on salt should be. B. How a high-salt intake affects blood pressure. C. How much salt intake is appropriate. D. Whether a high-salt intake causes anxiety. 35. What may be a suitable little for the text? A. Most people regularly take in too much salt. B. Mental health is important to improving well being. C. Diet containing much salt increases levels of stress. D. Less than six grams of salt a day is recommended. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍一项新的研究表明，含有大量盐的饮食会增加压力水平。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Experts hope the findings will encourage a review of public health policy around salt consumption, aiming at manufacturers reducing the amount of salt in processed food. (专家们希望这一发现将鼓励对食盐消费的公共卫生政策进行审查，目的是让制造商减少加工食品中的盐含量。)”可知，该研究结果最终目的是想让食品加工制造商减少食品里面盐的含量。故选A。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“While effects on the heart and circulatory(循环) system have been ascertained, little was known about the impact of a high-salt diet on a person’s behaviour. (虽然高盐饮食对心脏和循环系统的影响已经ascertained，但人们对高盐饮食会对人的行为产生什么影响知之甚少。)”可知， while前后是对比关系，尽管高盐饮食对心脏和循环系统的影响已经被证实，但是人们对高盐饮食会的不良后果却知道很少。所以ascertained的意思应该是“被证实”，和选项D意思一致。故选D。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Experts say further studies are already underway to understand if a high-salt intake leads to other behavioural changes such as anxiety and aggression. (专家表示，进一步研究已经在进行中，以了解高盐摄入是否会导致焦虑和攻击等其他行为变化。)”可知，高盐摄入是否会引起焦虑将是未来研究的课题之一。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Diet containing lots of salt can contribute to increased levels of stress, a new study shows. (一项新的研究表明，含有大量盐的饮食会增加压力。)”可知，这篇文章主要介绍含有大量盐的饮食会增加压力水平。故选C。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 What’s in a Game?

Rules set limits and define what the game is — and what it isn’t. Players need to know what they can and can’t do, and what will happen when they do different things.”（接下来，你需要制定规则，让玩家知道他们能做什么，不能做什么。似乎没有规则的游戏会更有趣。你可以做任何你想做的事！不幸的是，这通常会导致困惑的玩家争论游戏应该如何玩。规则设定了限制，定义了什么是游戏，什么不是游戏。玩家需要知道他们能做什么和不能做什么，以及当他们做不同的事情时会发生什么。）说明了设定游戏规则的重要性。B项“The Rules”（规则）可作为小标题概括本段内容。故选B项。 【39题详解】 上文“While you are creating your rules, think about the choices players will make and what effects those choices will have.”（当你在创造规则时，考虑玩家将做出的选择以及这些选择将产生的影响。）说明制定规则时，需要考虑到玩家的选择。E项“Every choice a player makes needs to have an effect on the gameplay”（玩家做出的每一个选择都必须对游戏玩法产生影响。）衔接上文，进一步解释玩家选择的影响，衔接恰当。故选E项。 【40题详解】 上文“Any game you see in stores has gone through many rounds of testing and revision.

It seems that I can be a donor for you.” Dana was wild with joy.

They were canceling the second day of her tests. A CT scan revealed the presence of a tumor (肿瘤) on Kelly’s right kidney. Kelly was shocked about the discovery and concerned she might no longer be a donor available for Dana. That meant that Kelly had to have an operation to remove the tumor, unable to donate her kidney. Meanwhile Dana had to wait for some other donors for a matchable kidney, which was really hard to find. Dana was thrown back to desperation. The cousins were at a loss. But their doctors wouldn’t give up. They tried every possible means to find a solution that could satisfy both sides, treating Kelly’s illness and offering Dana transplanting. But the bad news was that there had been few such reported cases. Determined to solve this difficult problem, Dr. Wee, director of the Kidney Transplant Program, held meetings with a team of specialists to discuss over details of the case and best steps to move forward.
