To stay awake, he’s had two cups of coffee in the last three hours and is now downing a popular energy drink which also has caffeine. Caffeine is present in many of the foods and drinks we consume (消耗), but is it good for us? Charles Czeisler, a scientist and sleep expert at Harvard Medical School, believes that caffeine causes us to lose sleep. “Without enough sleep — the typical eight hours -the human body will not work at its best, physically, mentally, or emotionally.” Too often, Czeisler says, we consume caffeine to stay awake, which later makes it impossible for us to get the rest we need. A number of scientists believe that regular caffeine use causes physical dependence. Heavy caffeine users show similar behaviors. For example, they get mild to severe headaches, or they feel tired or sad when they can’t have a caffeinated drink. To reduce or stop these feelings, users must consume caffeine, which is characteristic of drug addiction. Despite these concerns, the general opinion in the scientific field is that caffeine is not dangerous when one or two small cups of coffee per day are consumed. Furthermore, a lot of current research goes against long-held negative beliefs about caffeine, and suggests that it may, in fact, have health benefits. For example, studies have shown that caffeine can help ease pain and help improve one’s mood. Research has also shown that some caffeinated drinks can help the body fight a number of illnesses, including certain types of cancer. Caffeine’s behavioral effects are real, but most often mild. Getting that burst of energy, of course, is why many of the world’s most popular drinks contain caffeine. Whether it’s a student drinking coffee before class or a businessperson enjoying tea with lunch, humankind’s favorite stimulant (兴奋剂) is at work every day, all over the world. 24. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “downing” in paragraph 1? A. Holding. B. Decreasing. C. Drinking. D. Waking. 25. Which statement would sleep expert Charles Czeisler probably agree with? A. The type of caffeine will affect people’s sleep. B. Heavy caffeine consumption will cause drug addiction. C. It’s a good idea to consume caffeine if people want to stay energetic. D. Regular caffeine use will make it difficult for people to get enough sleep. 26. What is the text mainly about? A. The risks of caffeine intake. B. The effects of consuming caffeine. C. Healthy and unhealthy caffeine products. D. Recent changes in caffeine consumption. 27. What is the author’s attitude towards caffeine consumption? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Unconcerned. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了咖啡因在世界各地受到欢迎，然而很多人对于咖啡因是否有副作用持有怀疑态度，但是适量饮用还是会带给人们一定的好处。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“To stay awake, he’s had two cups of coffee in the last three hours and is now”以及后文“a popular energy drink which also has caffeine”可知，托马斯·墨菲在过去的三个小时里喝了两杯咖啡，现在正在喝一种很受欢迎的能量饮料，其中也含有咖啡因。故划线词意思是“喝”。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Too often, Czeisler says, we consume caffeine to stay awake, which later makes it impossible for us to get the rest we need.(Czeisler说，我们经常摄入咖啡因来保持清醒，这使得我们无法得到所需的休息)”可知，睡眠专家Charles Czeisler可能会同意经常摄入咖啡因会使人们难以获得足够的睡眠。故选D。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段的“but is it good for us?(但这对我们有好处吗?)”和倒数第二段“ Furthermore, a lot of current research goes against long-held negative beliefs about caffeine, and suggests that it may, in fact, have health benefits.  (此外，目前的许多研究都反驳了长期以来人们对咖啡因的负面看法，并表明它实际上可能对健康有益。)”结合文章可知，本文主要讲述了咖啡因在世界各地受到欢迎，然而很多人对于咖啡因是否有副作用持有怀疑态度，但是适量饮用还会带给人们一定的好处。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是摄入咖啡因的影响。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“A number of scientists believe that regular caffeine use causes physical dependence.(许多科学家认为，经常摄入咖啡因会导致身体依赖)”；第四段“Despite these concerns, the general opinion in the scientific field is that caffeine is not dangerous when one or two small cups of coffee per day are consumed.(尽管存在这些担忧，但科学界的普遍观点是，每天喝一到两小杯咖啡，咖啡因是没有危险的)”以及最后一段“Caffeine’s behavioral effects are real, but most often mild.(咖啡因对行为的影响是真实的，但大多数情况下是温和的)”可推知，作者主要引用了科学家等专业人士对咖啡因摄入的看法和研究，且提到了咖啡因大多数情况下是温和的，故作者对咖啡因摄入的态度是客观的。故选C。 C You know the feeling — your ears start to warm up, your tongue goes numb, you start sweating and taking deep breaths. You know eating something spicy would be painful, but you choose to do it anyway. Are humans just masochistic (受虐狂的), or is there something else going on? The answer lies in both science and history. Let’s start with the science. Spicy isn’t actually a taste like salty, sweet, sour and bitter — it’s a sensation(感觉). This sensation is caused by a chemical compound in chili peppers called capsaicin (辣椒素). When we eat foods containing capsaicin, our bodies are tricked into thinking the temperature is rising. In trying to temper the burning sensation, our bodies release endorphins, which control pain and, at the same time, give a feeling of pleasure. This is what is happening chemically, but there is also a conscious side to choosing spicy food. Dr. Tamara Rosenbaum, a cognitive neuroscientist, explains that this is because we are rational beings — we know that the burning sensation of chili does not physically harm us. Furthermore, we get pleasure from the other ingredients(成分) chili is generally cooked and eaten with — including fat, sugar and salt. This masochistic relationship with capsaicin has been long, starting in the Andes of South America, where chili peppers originate. Humans were among the few mammals on Earth that developed a taste for capsaicin. Archeological evidence suggests that humans started cultivating chili peppers about six thousand years ago. Human intervention(介入) changed the chili pepper to suit human tastes and needs — including the pepper’s color, size and capsaicin content — helping to explain the many different types of chili peppers now available. Fast-forward to today, and our love affair with the chili pepper is going strong. We eat around 57.3 million tons of peppers globally each year, and chili is a key ingredient in traditional dishes from Mexico to Korea. Maybe we are masochistic, after all. 28. What does science say about people eating spicy food? A. People can get necessary nutrients from it. B. People are unaware of the potential harm. C. People are addicted to capsaicin in chilies. D. People can take pleasure from the pain. 29. What do people think of spicy food, according to Rosenbaum? A. It cannot be digested easily. B. It is more delicious than others. C. It doesn’t really hurt the body. D. It isn’t fit for human consumption. 30. What can we know about people’s love for chili peppers from the last two paragraphs? A. It is common worldwide. B. It is long-standing and deep. C. It impacts food culture greatly. D. It distinguishes people from animals. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Why Do We Eat Spicy Food? B. What Makes Chili Peppers Hot? C. How Do Chili Peppers Conquer the World? D. Does Eating Spicy Food Have Health Benefits? 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要从科学和历史两方面分析了人们喜欢吃辣的原因。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“In trying to temper the burning sensation, our bodies release endorphins, which control pain and, at the same time, give a feeling of pleasure.(在试图缓和灼烧感的过程中，我们的身体会释放内啡肽，它可以控制疼痛，同时给人一种愉悦的感觉。)”可知，吃辣椒会让人体释放内啡肽，内啡肽能控制疼痛，同时带来愉悦感。因此，科学解释了人们从疼痛中获得愉悦感。故选D项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Dr. Tamara Rosenbaum, a cognitive neuroscientist, explains that this is because we are rational beings — we know that the burning sensation of chili does not physically harm us.(认知神经科学家塔玛拉·罗森鲍姆博士解释说，这是因为我们是理性的生物——我们知道辣椒的灼烧感不会对我们的身体造成伤害。)”可知，Rosenbaum认为人们知道辣椒的灼烧感不会对身体造成实际伤害。故选C项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Archeological evidence suggests that humans started cultivating chili peppers about six thousand years ago.(考古证据表明，人类大约在六千年前开始种植辣椒)”和根据最后一段“we eat around 57.3 million tons of peppers globally each year(我们每年吃掉大约5730万吨辣椒)”可知，人们对辣椒的喜爱是由来已久且在不断加深的。故选B项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“You know eating something spicy would be painful, but you choose to do it anyway. Are humans just masochistic (受虐狂的), or is there something else going on? The answer lies in both science and history.(你知道吃辣的东西会很痛，但你还是选择吃。人类是受虐狂，还是另有隐情?答案在科学和历史中。)”可知，本文主要从科学和历史两方面分析了人们喜欢吃辣的原因。故选A项。 D “We have Dante, Shakespeare and Du Fu. These poets create the very values by which poetry is judged,” remarked Harvard professor Stephen Owen. Even though scholars studying Chinese history and culture often compare Du Fu to Dante and Shakespeare, this famous Chinese poet and thinker, who is also greatly respected in East Asian cultures, is still not very well-known in the West. However, with the screening of Du Fu, China’s Greatest Poet, the first English-language documentary feature about the poet, the days of Du Fu as China’s best-kept literary secret seem to come to an end. From the Yellow River to the Yangtze Gorges and down to the forested hills of Hunan Province, Michael Wood, the documentary presenter, traveled to various places, including the poet’s birthplace in Gongyi, Henan Province, the Tang Dynasty capital Chang’an (now Xi’an), and the Du Fu Thatched Cottage in Chengdu, Southwest China. Along the way, he met and talked to ordinary people, dancers and musicians. They helped to tell the interesting story of the poet whose writings have been heard for many centuries, speaking for the pain of ordinary people caught in war, starvation (饥饿), and natural disasters. “Chinese people really value the recording of history, and Du Fu is better than anyone at reflecting history in his poetry. That’s because historical events are reflected in his own life and spiritual journey,” noted Zeng Xiangbo, a professor of ancient Chinese literature at Renmin University of China. “Du’s poetry reflects the experience and transforms it, so it becomes a part of the emotional vocabulary of the Chinese culture,” said Stephen Owen, who in 2016 completed an eight-year-long project to translate Du Fu’s 1,400 poems into English. 32. What can we know about Du Fu’s poetry from the passage? A. It is only popular in China. B. It focuses on the joy of life. C. It is not well-known in the West. D. It is simple and easy to understand. 33. What did Michael Wood do to explore for the documentary? A. Discussed with modern poets and scholars. B. Visited historical sites significant to Du Fu’s life. C. Analyzed Du Fu’s influence in Western literature. D. Compared Western poetic styles with Eastern ones. 34. What does Stephen Owen’s eight-year-long project involve? A. Publishing a book about Du Fu. B. Translating Du Fu’s poems into English. C. Studying the development of Chinese poetry. D. Evaluating the effects of history on Du Fu’s creation. 35. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To highlight the importance of Du Fu’s poetry. B. To show some little-known facts about Du Fu. C. To discuss the link between culture and literature. D. To introduce the English documentary about poetry. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国唐代著名诗人杜甫。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Even though scholars studying Chinese history and culture often compare Du Fu to Dante and Shakespeare, this famous Chinese poet and thinker, who is also greatly respected in East Asian cultures, is still not very well-known in the West.(尽管研究中国历史和文化的学者经常将杜甫与但丁和莎士比亚相提并论，但这位在东亚文化中也备受推崇的著名中国诗人兼思想家在西方仍然鲜为人知)”可知，杜甫的诗歌在西方并不太知名。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“From the Yellow River to the Yangtze Gorges and down to the forested hills of Hunan Province, Michael Wood, the documentary presenter, traveled to various places, including the poet’s birthplace in Gongyi, Henan Province, the Tang Dynasty capital Chang’an (now Xi’an), and the Du Fu Thatched Cottage in Chengdu, Southwest China.(从黄河到长江三峡，再到湖南省的森林丘陵，纪录片主持人Michael Wood游历了许多地方，包括河南省巩义的诗人出生地、唐朝都城长安（今西安）和中国西南部成都的杜甫草堂)”可知，Michael Wood参观了杜甫出生地等多个与杜甫生活和文学活动相关的地方，包括杜甫草堂。故选B项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““Du’s poetry reflects the experience and transforms it, so it becomes a part of the emotional vocabulary of the Chinese culture,” said Stephen Owen, who in 2016 completed an eight-year-long project to translate Du Fu’s 1,400 poems into English.(“杜甫的诗歌反映并转化了这种体验，因此它成为了中国文化情感词汇的一部分，”Stephen Owen说道，Stephen Owen于 2016 年完成了一项为期八年的项目，将杜甫的 1400 首诗歌翻译成英文)”可知，Stephen Owen的八年项目是将杜甫的1400首诗翻译成英文。故选B项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据根据第一段“Even though scholars studying Chinese history and culture often compare Du Fu to Dante and Shakespeare, this famous Chinese poet and thinker, who is also greatly respected in East Asian cultures, is still not very well-known in the West.(尽管研究中国历史和文化的学者经常将杜甫与但丁和莎士比亚相提并论，但这位在东亚文化中也备受推崇的著名中国诗人兼思想家在西方仍然鲜为人知)”以及第二段“However, with the screening of Du Fu, China’s Greatest Poet, the first English-language documentary feature about the poet, the days of Du Fu as China’s best-kept literary secret seem to come to an end.(然而，随着首部关于杜甫的英文纪录片《杜甫：中国最伟大的诗人》的上映，杜甫作为中国保存最完好的文学秘密的日子似乎走到了尽头)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了中国唐代诗人杜甫的诗歌和他在中国及西方的影响力，强调了杜甫诗歌的重要性。故选A项。 第二节：（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 What’s the secret to happiness?

Yet, within a few years, they may find themselves back to the past or suffering.(坏的想法，坏的习惯，坏的关系可能会阻碍你发现真正的快乐。有些人认为，当他们升职、买到梦想中的房子或找到那个特别的人时，他们就找到了真正的幸福。然而，在几年之内，他们可能会发现自己回到过去或痛苦)”可知，此处是指面临即将失去或已经失去的东西时要学会放手，这样才会发现真正的快乐，所以选项G“形成幸福始于放弃不再为你服务的东西。”切合文意。故选G。 【37题详解】 根据前文“Waking up a bit earlier and practicing your morning life can guide you towards happiness and success.(早一点起床，练习你的早晨生活可以引导你走向幸福和成功)”可知，此处是指一个好的早晨会带来好的一天，所以选项B“美好的早晨成就美好的一天。”切合文意。故选B。 【38题详解】 根据前文“There is no doubt that your food choices affect your overall physical health.(毫无疑问，你的食物选择会影响你的整体身体健康)”可知，此处是指一些食物也会影响你的情绪，所以选项E“然而，有些食物也会影响你的感觉。”切合文意。故选E。 【39题详解】 根据前文“What’s more, being mindful when eating can also bring happiness as you become present in the moment and focus on joy.(更重要的是，当你专注于当下，专注于快乐时，吃饭的时候用心也能带来快乐)”可知，此处是指下次吃东西的时候可以试试这样做，所以选项C“你下次吃饭的时候最好试试。”切合文意。故选C。 【40题详解】 根据后文“And they often let fears and desires hold them back.(他们经常让恐惧和欲望阻碍他们)”和前文“The secret to happiness is to live fully in the here and now.(幸福的秘诀是活在当下)”可知，此处是指大部分人都无法专注当下，所以选项D“大多数人不能专注于活在当下。”切合文意。故选D。 第三部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节：（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 For the past four years I had been having up to 30 seizures (癫痫发作) a day.

The seller saw me standing before the counter and asked, “Hey little girl, you want to eat a bowl?” “But … but I do not carry money …” I shyly replied. “Okay, I’ll treat you.” the seller said, “come in, I will cook you a bowl.” A few minutes later the owner brought me a steaming bowl of noodles. After eating some pieces, I cried. “What is it?” He asked. “Nothing. I am just touched by your kindness!” I said as I wiped my tears. “Even a stranger on the street gives me a bowl of noodles, and my mother, after a quarrel, chased me out of the house. She is cruel (残忍的)!!” The seller sighed, “Girl, why did you think so? Think again. I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you felt that way. Your mother has been taking care of you since you were little, why were you not grateful and why did you hurt your mom?” I was really surprised after hearing that. Why did I not think of that?

To stay awake, he’s had two cups of coffee in the last three hours and is now downing a popular energy drink which also has caffeine. Caffeine is present in many of the foods and drinks we consume (消耗), but is it good for us? Charles Czeisler, a scientist and sleep expert at Harvard Medical School, believes that caffeine causes us to lose sleep. “Without enough sleep — the typical eight hours -the human body will not work at its best, physically, mentally, or emotionally.” Too often, Czeisler says, we consume caffeine to stay awake, which later makes it impossible for us to get the rest we need. A number of scientists believe that regular caffeine use causes physical dependence. Heavy caffeine users show similar behaviors. For example, they get mild to severe headaches, or they feel tired or sad when they can’t have a caffeinated drink. To reduce or stop these feelings, users must consume caffeine, which is characteristic of drug addiction. Despite these concerns, the general opinion in the scientific field is that caffeine is not dangerous when one or two small cups of coffee per day are consumed. Furthermore, a lot of current research goes against long-held negative beliefs about caffeine, and suggests that it may, in fact, have health benefits. For example, studies have shown that caffeine can help ease pain and help improve one’s mood. Research has also shown that some caffeinated drinks can help the body fight a number of illnesses, including certain types of cancer. Caffeine’s behavioral effects are real, but most often mild. Getting that burst of energy, of course, is why many of the world’s most popular drinks contain caffeine. Whether it’s a student drinking coffee before class or a businessperson enjoying tea with lunch, humankind’s favorite stimulant (兴奋剂) is at work every day, all over the world. 24. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “downing” in paragraph 1? A. Holding. B. Decreasing. C. Drinking. D. Waking. 25. Which statement would sleep expert Charles Czeisler probably agree with? A. The type of caffeine will affect people’s sleep. B. Heavy caffeine consumption will cause drug addiction. C.

C You know the feeling — your ears start to warm up, your tongue goes numb, you start sweating and taking deep breaths. You know eating something spicy would be painful, but you choose to do it anyway. Are humans just masochistic (受虐狂的), or is there something else going on? The answer lies in both science and history. Let’s start with the science. Spicy isn’t actually a taste like salty, sweet, sour and bitter — it’s a sensation(感觉). This sensation is caused by a chemical compound in chili peppers called capsaicin (辣椒素). When we eat foods containing capsaicin, our bodies are tricked into thinking the temperature is rising. In trying to temper the burning sensation, our bodies release endorphins, which control pain and, at the same time, give a feeling of pleasure. This is what is happening chemically, but there is also a conscious side to choosing spicy food. Dr. Tamara Rosenbaum, a cognitive neuroscientist, explains that this is because we are rational beings — we know that the burning sensation of chili does not physically harm us. Furthermore, we get pleasure from the other ingredients(成分) chili is generally cooked and eaten with — including fat, sugar and salt. This masochistic relationship with capsaicin has been long, starting in the Andes of South America, where chili peppers originate. Humans were among the few mammals on Earth that developed a taste for capsaicin. Archeological evidence suggests that humans started cultivating chili peppers about six thousand years ago. Human intervention(介入) changed the chili pepper to suit human tastes and needs — including the pepper’s color, size and capsaicin content — helping to explain the many different types of chili peppers now available. Fast-forward to today, and our love affair with the chili pepper is going strong. We eat around 57.3 million tons of peppers globally each year, and chili is a key ingredient in traditional dishes from Mexico to Korea. Maybe we are masochistic, after all. 28. What does science say about people eating spicy food? A. People can get necessary nutrients from it. B. People are unaware of the potential harm. C. People are addicted to capsaicin in chilies. D. People can take pleasure from the pain. 29. What do people think of spicy food, according to Rosenbaum? A. It cannot be digested easily. B. It is more delicious than others. C. It doesn’t really hurt the body. D. It isn’t fit for human consumption. 30 What can we know about people’s love for chili peppers from the last two paragraphs? A. It is common worldwide. B. It is long-standing and deep. C. It impacts food culture greatly. D. It distinguishes people from animals. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Why Do We Eat Spicy Food? B. What Makes Chili Peppers Hot? C. How Do Chili Peppers Conquer the World? D. Does Eating Spicy Food Have Health Benefits? D “We have Dante, Shakespeare and Du Fu. These poets create the very values by which poetry is judged,” remarked Harvard professor Stephen Owen. Even though scholars studying Chinese history and culture often compare Du Fu to Dante and Shakespeare, this famous Chinese poet and thinker, who is also greatly respected in East Asian cultures, is still not very well-known in the West. However, with the screening of Du Fu, China’s Greatest Poet, the first English-language documentary feature about the poet, the days of Du Fu as China’s best-kept literary secret seem to come to an end. From the Yellow River to the Yangtze Gorges and down to the forested hills of Hunan Province, Michael Wood, the documentary presenter, traveled to various places, including the poet’s birthplace in Gongyi, Henan Province, the Tang Dynasty capital Chang’an (now Xi’an), and the Du Fu Thatched Cottage in Chengdu, Southwest China. Along the way, he met and talked to ordinary people, dancers and musicians. They helped to tell the interesting story of the poet whose writings have been heard for many centuries, speaking for the pain of ordinary people caught in war, starvation (饥饿), and natural disasters. “Chinese people really value the recording of history, and Du Fu is better than anyone at reflecting history in his poetry. That’s because historical events are reflected in his own life and spiritual journey,” noted Zeng Xiangbo, a professor of ancient Chinese literature at Renmin University of China. “Du’s poetry reflects the experience and transforms it, so it becomes a part of the emotional vocabulary of the Chinese culture,” said Stephen Owen, who in 2016 completed an eight-year-long project to translate Du Fu’s 1,400 poems into English. 32. What can we know about Du Fu’s poetry from the passage? A. It is only popular in China. B. It focuses on the joy of life. C. It is not well-known in the West. D. It is simple and easy to understand. 33. What did Michael Wood do to explore for the documentary? A. Discussed with modern poets and scholars. B. Visited historical sites significant to Du Fu’s life. C. Analyzed Du Fu’s influence in Western literature. D. Compared Western poetic styles with Eastern ones. 34. What does Stephen Owen’s eight-year-long project involve? A. Publishing a book about Du Fu. B. Translating Du Fu’s poems into English. C. Studying the development of Chinese poetry. D. Evaluating the effects of history on Du Fu’s creation. 35. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To highlight the importance of Du Fu’s poetry. B. To show some little-known facts about Du Fu. C. To discuss the link between culture and literature. D. To introduce the English documentary about poetry. 第二节：（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 What’s the secret to happiness?
