B In spring 2015, after 39 years with Columbia Pictures, I retired and found myself with lots of free time to spare. I decided to use that time to volunteer. While tutoring with the adult literacy(识字)program at my local library, a flyer (传单)for a neighborhood group called Westchester Villages caught my eye. Its main job is about matching aging neighbors with local volunteers who help them in a number of different ways: Making short visits, being a walking partner, or driving to doctors’ appointments and the like. I am happy to offer myself as a responsible person and a comfort to someone who is nervous about their appointment and concerned about getting there safely on time. I’m usually available to stay with the person I’m driving during their visit and accompany them back to my car for the ride home. These drives also can be ideal times for relaxing conversation. I’ve had many discussions with them, discovered many common interests, and heard numerous extended stories of past travels and family histories. I often begin rides by reassuring(使放心)a nervous neighbor by calmly saying, “I know where we’re going, the most direct route, and the best place to park. You’re in good hands with me.” These driving experiences also have afforded me opportunities for reflection and insight. I’ve come to feel united with the neighbors I have come to know, and a keener awareness of the aging process we all share. In living through so much time with them, I realize I’m going through the same stages. A final irony(讽刺)for this movie lover is that I no longer need to go to a darkened theatre and gaze at a big screen in search of high drama. Whether it’s a World War II-era family story or anxiety about current events or good news from a doctor, I experience all from a decidedly front row seat. 24. What did the author decide to do during his free time? A. Work for the local library. B. Give rides for aging neighbors. C. Offer neighbors medical care. D. Teach adults in a neighborhood. 25. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Creative and capable. B. Devoted and considerate. C. Talented and hard-working. D. Ambitious and warm-hearted. 26. What might the author’s driving experiences remind him of? A. Passengers’ words of comfort. B. The value of conversations. C. A driver’s responsibility. D. His own aging process. 27. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. The author has been anxious about his health. B. The author has no interest in dramas anymore. C. The author has found a new way of experiencing life. D. The author prefers watching movies from a front row. C According to a study published by the American Psychological Association, playing an instrument as a child keeps the mind sharper as we age. The study, done at the University of Kansas Medical Center, elected 70 healthy adults between the ages 60 and 83, who were divided into groups based on their levels of musical experience. The musicians performed better in several cognitive(认知的) tests than individuals who had never studied an instrument or learned how to read music. The brain functions measured by the tests tend to go worse with age. “Musical activity throughout life may serve as a challenging cognitive exercise, making your brain fitter and more capable of meeting the challenges of aging,” said lead researcher Brenda Hanna-Pladdy. “Since studying an instrument requires years of practice and learning, it may create connections in the brain that could make up for cognitive drop as we get older.” “Music-making is connected to a number of health benefits for older adults,” said Suzanne Hanser, chair of the music treatment department at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. “Research shows that making music can lower blood pressure, slow heart rate, reduce stress, and ease anxiety. There is also increasing evidence that making music enhances the immunological(免疫)response, which enables us to fight disease,” Hanser said. Hanser said that anyone, without considering age or ability, can make music and benefit from it. “People are not only living longer these days; they want to remain healthy and active for as long as possible,” said Antoinette Follett, editor-in-chief of “Making Music” magazine. “Plus, there is an increasing focus in the medical community on the need to keep the brain as healthy as the body. This focus is as much about making the empty nest and retirement years fun and worthwhile as it is about preventing debilitating dementias(衰弱性痴呆) such as Alzheimer’s disease. Music making is able to do both.” 28. Among 4 healthy adults below, who might perform better in the cognitive tests? A. A senior who used to teach reading. B. An aged man who knew a musician. C. A grandpa who often listened to music. D. An old lady who enjoyed playing the guitar. 29. What does the underlined word “enhances” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Disables. B. Frees. C. Improves. D. Operates. 30. What can we conclude according to the passage? A. Brain functions go worse with age. B. Learning music is able to stop aging. C. Music is beneficial to brain and body. D. Playing an instrument can fight diseases. 31. In which part of a newspaper could this article probably be found? A. Culture. B. Art. C. Medicine. D. Health. 三、课本基础知识考查(5*2.5=12.5分)根据上下文语境，填入所给单词的正确形式。 32. Whether pollution is directly linked to the disease is under__________(discuss).(所给词的适当形式填空) 33.

I’m usually available to stay with the person I’m driving during their visit and accompany them back to my car for the ride home.

The study, done at the University of Kansas Medical Center, elected 70 healthy adults between the ages 60 and 83, who were divided into groups based on their levels of musical experience. The musicians performed better in several cognitive(认知的) tests than individuals who had never studied an instrument or learned how to read music. The brain functions measured by the tests tend to go worse with age. “Musical activity throughout life may serve as a challenging cognitive exercise making your brain fitter and more capable of meeting the challenges of aging,” said lead researcher Brenda Hanna-Pladdy. “Since studying an instrument requires years of practice and learning, it may create connections in the brain that could make up for cognitive drop as we get older.” “Music-making is connected to a number of health benefits for older adults,” said Suzanne Hanser, chair of the music treatment department at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. “Research shows that making music can lower blood pressure, slow heart rate, reduce stress, and ease anxiety. There is also increasing evidence that making music enhances the immunological(免疫)response, which enables us to fight disease,” Hanser said. Hanser said that anyone, without considering age or ability, can make music and benefit from it. “People are not only living longer these days; they want to remain healthy and active for as long as possible,” said Antoinette Follett, editor-in-chief of “Making Music” magazine. “Plus, there is an increasing focus in the medical community on the need to keep the brain as healthy as the body. This focus is as much about making the empty nest and retirement years fun and worthwhile as it is about preventing debilitating dementias(衰弱性痴呆) such as Alzheimer’s disease. Music making is able to do both.” 28. Among 4 healthy adults below, who might perform better in the cognitive tests? A. A senior who used to teach reading. B. An aged man who knew a musician. C. A grandpa who often listened to music. D. An old lady who enjoyed playing the guitar. 29. What does the underlined word “enhances” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A Disables. B. Frees. C. Improves. D. Operates. 30. What can we conclude according to the passage? A. Brain functions go worse with age. B. Learning music is able to stop aging. C. Music is beneficial to brain and body. D. Playing an instrument can fight diseases. 31. In which part of a newspaper could this article probably be found? A. Culture. B. Art. C. Medicine. D. Health. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项研究：孩童时期学习乐器可以使人晚年时的大脑更加敏锐。此外，制作音乐还能增强免疫反应，帮助人们抵抗疾病。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“According to a study published by the American Psychological Association, playing an instrument as a child keeps the mind sharper as we age.(根据美国心理协会发表的一项研究，小时候演奏一种乐器可以让我们长大后思维更敏捷。)”可知，小时候演奏一种乐器可以让我们长大后思维更敏捷。因此弹吉他的老太太会在认知测试中表现得更好。因此D选项“An old lady who enjoyed playing the guitar.(一位喜欢弹吉他的老太太。)”符合文章内容。故选D。 【29题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词后面的内容“which enables us to fight disease(这能让我们能够对抗疾病)”可知，创作音乐能够增强免疫力，由此对抗我们的身体疾病。故划线词与C选项为同义词，意为“提升，促进”。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Since studying an instrument requires years of practice and learning, it may create connections in the brain that could make up for cognitive drop as we get older.( 由于学习一种乐器需要多年的练习和学习，它可能会在大脑中建立联系，弥补随着年龄增长而出现的认知能力下降)”可知，随着年龄的增长，大脑功能越来越差。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“According to a study published by the American Psychological Association, playing an instrument as a child keeps the mind sharper as we age.(根据美国心理协会发表的一项研究，小时候演奏一种乐器可以让我们长大后思维更敏捷。)”以及通读全文可知，文章介绍了一项研究：孩童时期学习乐器可以使人晚年时的大脑更加敏锐。此外，制作音乐还能增强免疫反应，帮助人们抵抗疾病，故推断文章出自于报纸中关于健康的部分。故选D。 三、课本基础知识考查(5*2.5=12.5分)根据上下文语境，填入所给单词的正确形式。 32.
