I personally think trains are exciting and romantic. I must admit that trains are not important means of transportation in the US, but I do have some experiences with them.
When I was a child, growing up in a small town with very little entertainment, we used to go to the station to watch the passenger trains coming in. There was something exciting about the steaming, roaring string of trains coming into view around the mountains, slowly growing larger and louder and finally after their stop crowds of strangers spilling (漏出)onto the platform.
I took my first train trip when I was ten years old. I went with my elder sister to visit our cousins six hundred miles away. The train — so loud and violent on the outside — was gentle and rocking inside. We were very excited, and as that was also our first time away from our parents, we felt somewhat frightened too. However, because I had expected so much, I was a little disappointed when I was finally one of the passengers I had watched for so long.
As a college student, I used to ride an overnight train to my roommate's hometown. We could never afford a sleeper, so we played cards, sang, ate, read and talked until we finally fell uncomfortably asleep in the straight-backed seats.
My idea that trains are romantic may come from the fact that my husband and I took the train on our honeymoon, spending extra money to eat in the dining car, and looking out of the window as the desert scenery slid past.
Now, when I make a trip, I always fly or drive, and trains are not a very important part of my life. Still, every time I hear the train whistle far away on a quiet night, I can always feel the impulse in my heart to pack my bags and jump on board, entering a unique world of motions, sounds, sights and experiences which just aren't matched in the dull environment of an airplane.
4. Why did the author feel a little disappointed during the first train trip?
A. Because the train was loud and violent. B. Because she finally became a passenger.
C. Because she had a high expectation. D. Because she missed his parents.
5. It can be inferred from the passage that.
A. the author's childhood memory of trains was frightening and disappointing
B. the author no longer makes a trip by train now as a result of its dull environment
C. the author didn't fall asleep until she found straight-backed seats with her roommate
D. the author thought trains romantic mainly because of the pleasant moment with her husband
6. Which word best describes the author's feelings when she hears the train whistle now?
A. Eager. B. Embarrassed. C. Romantic. D. Disappointed.
7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. My Love of Trains B. Watching Trains Coming
C. My Memory of Trips D. Trains: My Best Choice
C
Recordings of angry bees are enough to send big, tough African elephants running away, a new study says. Beehives (蜂窝)—either recorded or real—may even prevent elephants from damaging farmer’s crops.
In 2002, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them. Today, Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops. But before she asked farmer to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms, she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away.
Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life. Lucy and her assistant hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down. Next,Lucy searched out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a tree close to each family.
From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera. Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups, only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy played the sound of a waterfall (瀑布) instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one place.
Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several times. She hasn’t tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial (最初的) results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.
8. We know from the passage that elephants may be frightened of .
A. loud noises B. some crops
C. video cameras D. angry bees
9. As mentioned in the passage, Lucy .
A. works by herself in Africa
B. needs to test more elephant groups
C. has stopped elephants eating crops
D. has got farmers to set up beehives on their farms
10. Why did Lucy throw a stone into a wild beehive?
A. To record the sound of bees.
B. To make a video of elephants.
C. To see if elephants would run away.
D. To find out more about the behavior of bees.
11. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Young elephants ignore African honeybees.
B. Waterfalls can make elephants stay in one place.
C. Elephants do not go near trees with bees living in them.
D. Farmers do not allow Lucy to conduct tests in their fields.
D
Having hundreds of friends online is no substitute for a handful of close friends in real life. Researchers discovered that people with only a few friends were at least as happy as those with far more if many of theirs were online. The number of ''peripheral others'', someone connected with online — former classmates and coworkers, for example — had no connection with how satisfied they felt.
Scientists did their study using data from two online surveys conducted on 1,496 people by a non-profit research organization. People taking part in the study revealed their ages, the make-up of their social networks, how often they had different types of social interactions, and their own feelings of well-being. They included details of how often and how they interacted with family or neighbours, and whether they included people who provided services for them in their networks. The number of close friends someone had was the only thing that influenced how satisfied they were with their social life.
''Loneliness has less to do with the number of friends you have, and more to do with how you feel about your friends,'' said Dr Bruine, an expert of the study. ''If you feel lonely, it may be more helpful to make a positive connection with a friend than to try and seek out new people to meet.''
In the study, they found older people tended to have smaller social networks. Younger people's were larger but this was mostly made up of ''peripheral others'' — not true friends, just people they knew — and did not contribute to their happiness.
Even variations in the number of family members or neighbours somebody spent time with did not affect how happy they were with their social life. Dr Bruine said her research echoed other findings showing people would be happier if a larger proportion of their online friends were actually their friends in reality.
She added, ''Stereotypes of aging tend to paint older adults in many cultures as sad and lonely. But the research shows that older adults' smaller networks didn't weaken social satisfaction and well-being. In fact, older adults tend to report better well-being than younger adults.''
12. What has a good influence on one's happiness according to the study?
A. Having impersonal networks of friends.
B. Meeting with close friends face to face.
C. Helping familiar coworkers.
D. Keeping in touch with family members online.
13. What did the 1,496 people taking part in the study have to do?
A. Keep off using the Internet.
B. Show their attitudes to happiness.
C. Reveal their social life thoroughly.
D. Find ''peripheral others'' from their friends.
14. Who is more likely to be attacked by loneliness from the study?
A. Parents living with their children.
B. Older adults with fewer friends online.
C. Those having fewer relatives or neighbours.
D. Young people without friends in reality.
15. What does the underlined word ''paint'' mean in the last paragraph?
A. treat B. draw
C. describe D. criticize

I personally think trains are exciting and romantic. I must admit that trains are not important means of transportation in the US, but I do have some experiences with them.
When I was a child, growing up in a small town with very little entertainment, we used to go to the station to watch the passenger trains coming in. There was something exciting about the steaming, roaring string of trains coming into view around the mountains, slowly growing larger and louder and finally after their stop crowds of strangers spilling (漏出)onto the platform.
I took my first train trip when I was ten years old. I went with my elder sister to visit our cousins six hundred miles away. The train — so loud and violent on the outside — was gentle and rocking inside. We were very excited, and as that was also our first time away from our parents, we felt somewhat frightened too. However, because I had expected so much, I was a little disappointed when I was finally one of the passengers I had watched for so long.
As a college student, I used to ride an overnight train to my roommate's hometown. We could never afford a sleeper, so we played cards, sang, ate, read and talked until we finally fell uncomfortably asleep in the straight-backed seats.
My idea that trains are romantic may come from the fact that my husband and I took the train on our honeymoon, spending extra money to eat in the dining car, and looking out of the window as the desert scenery slid past.
Now, when I make a trip, I always fly or drive, and trains are not a very important part of my life. Still, every time I hear the train whistle far away on a quiet night, I can always feel the impulse in my heart to pack my bags and jump on board, entering a unique world of motions, sounds, sights and experiences which just aren't matched in the dull environment of an airplane.
4. Why did the author feel a little disappointed during the first train trip?
A. Because the train was loud and violent. B. Because she finally became a passenger.
C. Because she had a high expectation. D. Because she missed his parents.
5. It can be inferred from the passage that.
A. the author's childhood memory of trains was frightening and disappointing
B. the author no longer makes a trip by train now as a result of its dull environment
C. the author didn't fall asleep until she found straight-backed seats with her roommate
D. the author thought trains romantic mainly because of the pleasant moment with her husband
6. Which word best describes the author's feelings when she hears the train whistle now?
A. Eager. B. Embarrassed. C. Romantic. D. Disappointed.
7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. My Love of Trains B. Watching Trains Coming
C. My Memory of Trips D. Trains: My Best Choice
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。短文回忆了作者从小喜欢火车,喜欢乘火车之旅。每当作者在安静的夜晚听到火车远处的汽笛声,总是很激动。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“However, because I had expected so much, I was a little disappointed when I was finally one of the passengers I had watched for so long.”可知,然而,因为我期待的太多,当我终于成为我注视了这么久的乘客之一时,我有点失望。由此可知,为什么作者在第一次乘火车旅行时感到有点失望是因为她有很高的期望。故选C项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“My idea that trains are romantic may come from the fact that my husband and I took the train on our honeymoon, spending extra money to eat in the dining car, and looking out of the window as the desert scenery slid past.”可知,我之所以认为火车很浪漫,可能是因为我丈夫和我在度蜜月时坐火车,花额外的钱在餐车里吃东西,看着窗外沙漠景色徐徐而过。由此判断出,作者认为火车浪漫主要是因为与丈夫的愉快时刻。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Still, every time I hear the train whistle far away on a quiet night, I can always feel the impulse in my heart to pack my bags”可知,每当我在安静的夜晚听到火车远处的汽笛声,我总能感受到心中的冲动。由此判断出,“渴望的”最能描述作者听到火车汽笛声时的感受。故选A项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。短文回忆了作者从小喜欢火车,喜欢乘火车之旅。每当作者在安静的夜晚听到火车远处的汽笛声,总是很激动。所以短文的最佳标题为“我对火车的热爱”。故选A项。
C
Recordings of angry bees are enough to send big, tough African elephants running away, a new study says. Beehives (蜂窝)—either recorded or real—may even prevent elephants from damaging farmer’s crops.
In 2002, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them. Today, Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops. But before she asked farmer to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms, she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away.
Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life. Lucy and her assistant hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down. Next,Lucy searched out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a tree close to each family.
From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera. Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups, only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy played the sound of a waterfall (瀑布) instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one place.
Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several times. She hasn’t tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial (最初的) results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.
8. We know from the passage that elephants may be frightened of .
A. loud noises B. some crops
C. video cameras D. angry bees
9. As mentioned in the passage, Lucy .
A. works by herself in Africa
B. needs to test more elephant groups
C. has stopped elephants eating crops
D. has got farmers to set up beehives on their farms
10. Why did Lucy throw a stone into a wild beehive?
A. To record the sound of bees.
B. To make a video of elephants.
C. To see if elephants would run away.
D. To find out more about the behavior of bees.
11 Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Young elephants ignore African honeybees.
B. Waterfalls can make elephants stay in one place.
C. Elephants do not go near trees with bees living in them.
D. Farmers do not allow Lucy to conduct tests in their fields.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“Recordings of angry bees are enough to send big, tough African elephants running away, a new study says.( 一项新的研究表明,蜜蜂发出的愤怒声音的录音足以让强壮的非洲大象逃跑)”可知,大象会害怕愤怒的蜜蜂。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句“She hasn't tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial (最初的) results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers.( 她还没有对足够多的象群进行测试,但她的初步结果令人鼓舞,足以开始用于农民试验)”可知,Lucy需要检测更多的大象群。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段前两句“Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life.( Lucy在肯尼亚北部的一棵树上发现了一个野生蜂巢,并安装了一台录音机。然后她往蜂箱里扔了一块石头,蜜蜂们一下子就炸开了)”可知,Lucy向野生蜂窝扔石头,是让蜜蜂生气从而记录下蜜蜂的声音。故选A。

Having hundreds of friends online is no substitute for a handful of close friends in real life. Researchers discovered that people with only a few friends were at least as happy as those with far more if many of theirs were online. The number of ''peripheral others'', someone connected with online — former classmates and coworkers, for example — had no connection with how satisfied they felt.
Scientists did their study using data from two online surveys conducted on 1,496 people by a non-profit research organization. People taking part in the study revealed their ages, the make-up of their social networks, how often they had different types of social interactions, and their own feelings of well-being. They included details of how often and how they interacted with family or neighbours, and whether they included people who provided services for them in their networks. The number of close friends someone had was the only thing that influenced how satisfied they were with their social life.
''Loneliness has less to do with the number of friends you have, and more to do with how you feel about your friends,'' said Dr Bruine, an expert of the study. ''If you feel lonely, it may be more helpful to make a positive connection with a friend than to try and seek out new people to meet.''
In the study, they found older people tended to have smaller social networks. Younger people's were larger but this was mostly made up of ''peripheral others'' — not true friends, just people they knew — and did not contribute to their happiness.
Even variations in the number of family members or neighbours somebody spent time with did not affect how happy they were with their social life. Dr Bruine said her research echoed other findings showing people would be happier if a larger proportion of their online friends were actually their friends in reality.
She added, ''Stereotypes of aging tend to paint older adults in many cultures as sad and lonely. But the research shows that older adults' smaller networks didn't weaken social satisfaction and well-being. In fact, older adults tend to report better well-being than younger adults.''
12. What has a good influence on one's happiness according to the study?
A. Having impersonal networks of friends.
B. Meeting with close friends face to face.
C. Helping familiar coworkers.
D. Keeping in touch with family members online.
13. What did the 1,496 people taking part in the study have to do?
A. Keep off using the Internet.
B. Show their attitudes to happiness.
C. Reveal their social life thoroughly.
D. Find ''peripheral others'' from their friends.
14. Who is more likely to be attacked by loneliness from the study?
A. Parents living with their children.
B. Older adults with fewer friends online.
C. Those having fewer relatives or neighbours.
D. Young people without friends in reality.
15. What does the underlined word ''paint'' mean in the last paragraph?
A. treat B. draw
C. describe D. criticize
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。一项研究表明一个人的幸福和孤独感与朋友的多少没有关系,而与对朋友的感觉关系较大。同时,该研究还证明乐,比起社交圈广泛的年轻人,只有几个好朋友的老年人对社会生活更满意也更健康。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的Researchers discovered that people with only a few friends were at least as happy as those with far more if many of theirs were online. The number of “peripheral others”, someone connected with online — former classmates and coworkers, for example — had no connection with how satisfied they felt.(研究人员发现,只有几个朋友的人和网上有很多朋友的人一样快乐。“边缘人”的数量和他们的满意度没有关系,比如网上的前同学和前同事)可推测,与亲密的朋友面对面的交流能增加一个人的幸福感。B. Meeting with close friends face to face. (与亲密的朋友面对面交流)符合以上推测,故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的People taking part in the study revealed their ages, the make-up of their social networks, how often they had different types of social interactions, and their own feelings of well-being. They included details of how often and how they interacted with family or neighbours, and whether they included people who provided services for them in their networks. (参与人员要透露自己的年龄、社交网络构成、他们有多少不同类型的社交,以及他们自己的幸福感。其中包括他们与家人或邻居交往的频率和方式,以及他们石头将为他们提供服务的人包括在他们的社交网络中)可知,参与研究的1496个人要彻底透露他们的社交生活。C. Reveal their social life thoroughly. (完全彻底地透露他们的社交生活)符合以上说法,故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“Loneliness has less to do with the number of friends you have, and more to do with how you feel about your friends,” (孤独与你身边朋友的数量没有关系,而和你对朋友的感觉关系更大)和第四段的Younger people’s were larger but this was mostly made up of “peripheral others” — not true friends, just people they knew — and did not contribute to their happiness. (年轻人的社交网络更大,但大都是“边缘人”组成,不是真正的朋友,只是他们认识的人,这不会提升他们的幸福感)可知,年轻人身边的朋友多,但不是真正的朋友,大多是边缘人。由此推测,现实生活中朋友很少的年轻人更容易觉得孤独。D. Young people without friends in reality. (现实生活中没有朋友的年亲人)符合以上推测,故选D项。
【15题详解】
词意猜测题。根据最后一段的She added, “Stereotypes of aging tend to paint older adults in many cultures as sad and lonely.可知,在许多文化中老年人趋向于被paint成悲伤和孤独的。结合句意,可猜测划线部分的意思是“描述”。C. describe (描述)符合以上给说法,故选C项。

【18题详解】
由上文“It’s true that switching off the lights for just one hour saves only a little power. (的确,关灯一小时只能省一点电。)”和后文“Joining in Earth Hour makes people think about the problem of climate change and how to protect nature so that people can enjoy healthy and sustainable lives.

【19题详解】
由下文“The number 60 is for the 60 minutes of Earth Hour, and the plus invites people to keep on taking action even after Earth Hour is finished. (数字60代表“地球一小时”的60分钟,加号邀请人们在“地球一小时”结束后继续采取行动。)”可知,本空要说跟“60和加号”有关的话题,故B选项“The logo of Earth Hour is “60+” (“地球一小时”的标志是“60+”)”能引起下文,符合题意。故选B。

【答案】Dear Jim,
I am sorry to know you are troubled by cellphone overuse. As a heavy cellphone user myself, I totally understand the stress and frustration you are feeling.
Fortunately, we can do a few things about it. For instance, we can set certain hours of the day as “cellphone time” and only pick up the phone during those hours. By doing so, we can reduce our screen time. We may also participate in group activities where we meet people face to face and thus don’t need to rely on the phone all the time to contact others.
