三、阅读理解
A
In Fujian Province during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127) there lived a man called Yang Shi. He devoted his whole life to study, and to spreading his ideas and theories. At that time, the brothers Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi, famous scholars in the capital, Luoyang, were teachers of the Way of Confucius and Mencius.
When Yang Shi heard of them, instead of going to where an official post had been assigned to him, he made his way to Luoyang and became Cheng Hao’s student. When Yang Shi finished his studies and left for home, Cheng Hao said with satisfaction, “My ideas are finally being spread in the south.” Four years later, Cheng Hao died and Yang Shi was extremely sad.
Later, Yang Shi made his way once more to Luoyang, where he asked Cheng Yi, Cheng Hao’s younger brother, to be his teacher. He wanted to make further progress in his studies. At that time Yang Shi was over forty years old, and a pretty well-known scholar, but he was very modest and respectful of teachers.
One day, Yang Shi and a fellow student, You Zuo, got into a dispute over a certain matter. Finding that they could not reconcile their differences, they decided to consult their teacher.
It happened to be the deep winter. When they reached Cheng Yi’s house they found him sitting by a stove meditating (冥想). Yang Shi and his classmate did not dare to disturb their teacher, but stood respectfully outside the door waiting for him to wake up.
The snow fell relentlessly, thicker and thicker. After a long time, Cheng Yi came out of his reverie. He looked out of the window, to see the two men standing in a blizzard, covered in snow. The teacher hastily arose and ushered them inside.
Later, when Yang Shi had completed his study with Master Cheng Yi, he returned to the south and spread his teacher’s ideas. The story “Standing in the Snow at Cheng’s Door” became a fine tale transmitted from generation to generation advocating respect for teachers and for study.
1.What did Yang Shi do before he became Cheng Hao’s student?
A.He learned from Cheng Yi.
B.He gave up an official post.
C.He paid a visit to Cheng Yi.
D.He spread Cheng Yi’s ideas.
2.What does the underlined word “reconcile” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Settle. B.Notice.
C.Identify. D.Explain.
3.How did Cheng Yi probably feel when he saw his two students?
A.Surprised and moved.
B.Satisfied and delighted.
C.Confused and doubtful.
D.Disappointed and curious.
4.What message does this story intend to convey?
A.Always have a thirst for knowledge.
B.Keep learning from different teachers.
C.Acquire as much knowledge as possible.
D.Show respect for teachers and knowledge.
B
A good friend was complaining about her son who spent money way too freely and without concern, putting himself into debt on multiple credit cards. At the suggestion that perhaps it would help him to make it harder to use credit (by canceling some cards or locking them away) she angrily said, “But he should be able to control himself without these tricks. He should have the willpower to just not spend money.”
This reaction demonstrates a popular belief that self-control is synonymous (同义的) with willpower — controlling desires with pure force of will. By contrast, current psychological thinking suggests that there are many actions and thoughts people can take to direct their choices without having to resort to the strength of will. These self-control strategies can make goal-oriented choices easier and temptation-oriented choices less likely.
For example, one might avoid tempting situations altogether, make some choices more accessible (for example, by leaving credit cards at home and bringing only limited amounts of cash), focus attention strategically (for example, looking at the price tag rather than the specs of a product), or remind oneself of one’s goals when faced with temptations (for example, by writing them down and bringing the piece of paper along). Self-control strategies help people to stay on track with their goals and resist temptations.
However, do people feel — like my friend — that using strategies is a “trick”, whereas willpower is the “real deal”? What do people think of a person who is using self-control strategies?
According to our studies, participants consistently rated people who were described as using strategies as lower in self-control than people who were described as using willpower. Diminishing strategies as “tricks” was linked to less willingness to use self-control strategies in our studies.
My friend might be more open to “tricks” that help her son limit his spending as the understanding of what self-control means changes. Self-control strategies are an important part of realising goals and resisting temptations. Self-control does not have to be hard. It can also mean arranging the world and one’s mind to make good choices more likely.
5.What was the problem with the author’s friend?
A.She fell into financial trouble.
B.She needed more credit cards.
C.Her son was heavily in debt.
D.Her son lacked discipline at school.
6.What do many people focus on when speaking of self-control?
A.A strong will. B.A great ambition.
C.Some specific goals. D.Some practical tricks.
7.Why does the author give some examples in Paragraph 3?
A.To show there are many tempting situations.
B.To show self-control strategies are effective.
C.To prove it isn’t difficult to resist temptations.
D.To prove we are faced with many temptations.
8.What does the underlined word “Diminishing” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A.Reducing in value.
B.Changing in position.
C.Improving in popularity.
D.Increasing in importance.

Having a good sense of humor makes you more enjoyable to be around. 9 . Here’s how you can develop your sense of humor.

·Learn what amuses you.
11 . We amuse our friends by praising a change they made. However, when it comes to being funny, don’t change your sense of humor to amuse other people. Instead, start with what amuses you. Then, if you think the other person will also be amused with it, share it with them.
·Think about timing and audience.
You don’t have to be funny all the time, so don’t expect that of yourself. When you catch yourself trying to be funny, slow down. Simply speak slower so you’re not as likely to stop and repeat yourself. Try speaking at 60%-70% of your usual rate. 12 .
· 13 .
You don’t need to seize every single opportunity to be funny. If you’re in the middle of a bad joke, just end it. “You know what, now that I’m telling it, it’s not as funny as it sounded in my head,” can be a bit of an awkward end and hurt your pride a little bit, but it saves everyone time and patience. In the long run, they’ll respect your taste.

三、阅读理解
A
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。程颢、程颐兄弟俩都是宋代极有学问的人。进士杨时先拜程颢为师,后来又拜程颐为师。一次杨时和同学去请教程颐问题,适逢老师休息,于是他们在门外等候,直至地面积雪一尺多厚。
1.B 推理判断题。根据第二段可知,杨时先放弃了自己的高官厚禄,然后去洛阳拜程颢为师。
2.A 词义猜测题。根据第四段可知,一天,杨时和他的同学游酢为一件事发生了争执。由于他们无法解决分歧,所以才决定去找老师。因此画线词与settle意思相近。
3.A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知,当程颐向窗外望去,看到那两个人站在暴风雪中,浑身是雪。程颐急忙站起来,把他们领进房间。根据当时的情景可以推出,老师会非常吃惊和感动。
4.D 主旨大意题。综合全文可知,“程门立雪”这一故事,主要揭示了尊师重道这一中华民族的传统美德。最后一段对本文的主旨作了概括。
B
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。提到自控,人们通常会强调意志力的重要性;可是,心理学家认为,采取一些有助于我们抵制诱惑的技巧也非常重要。
5.C 细节理解题。根据第一段可知,作者的这位朋友遇到的问题是:她的儿子由于缺乏自控、花钱无度,因此陷入了信用卡债务中。
6.A 细节理解题。根据第二段可知,提到自控,人们普遍认为自控与意志力是同义词——即用纯粹的意志力控制个人欲望。
7.B 推理判断题。根据第三段可知,作者通过举例说明,自控策略可以帮助人们坚持自己的目标,抵制诱惑。最后一句是对本段大意的总结。
8.A 词义猜测题。根据上下文可知,作者所从事的研究表明,研究对象普遍认为,比起那些单纯利用意志力的人来,那些借助策略的人自控能力更低;另外,很多研究对象也不愿采用这些策略。这说明他们“看不起”这些自控策略,也就是“贬低”它们。
四、七选五
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何培养幽默感。
9.D 根据上文Having a good sense of humor makes you more enjoyable to be around.可知,上文介绍有幽默感的好处。根据下文Here’s how you can develop your sense of humor.可知,下文引出如何培养幽默感。因此空格处应承接上文,继续说明幽默感的好处,D项(你也可能在工作上做得更好)符合语境。
10.C 根据上文Watch stand-up comedians. Listen to programs that amuse you. Read humorous books.可知,上文提到的这些做法都可以帮助培养幽默感。C项说明这些做法可以获得乐趣,符合语境。
11.G 下文提到我们通过赞扬朋友所做的改变来取悦他们,但紧接着又说我们不要为了取悦他人而改变自己的幽默感。由此推知,空格处应谈到“取悦他人”,G项(很多时候,我们说的话纯粹是为了取悦别人)符合语境。
12.B 根据本段小标题可知,本段主要围绕时机、受众及讲话的语速提出建议。B项(在句子之间停顿)符合本段主旨。
13.E 设空处为本段小标题。从上文几个小标题的句式结构可知,此处应填入祈使句。根据下文可知,本段主要建议人们要学会适可而止。E项最能概括本段主旨。
