For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Why would someone decide to stop eating? We know that the body needs food in order to function well. However, many people fast at some time during their lives. Why is this? Some people fast for political reasons. In the early 20th century, women in England and the United States 1 (not allow) to vote. In protest, many women went on fasts. They hoped that fasting 2 (bring) attention to this injustice. Mohandas Gandhi, the famous Indian leader, fasted 17 times during his life. For Gandhi, fasting was a powerful political tool. In 1943, he fasted to bring attention to his country’s need for independence. For 21 days, he went without food. Another famous faster was Cesar Chavez. In the 1960s, he fasted for three weeks. Why? His goal was 3 (arouse) people’s awareness of the terrible working conditions of farm workers in the United States. Fasting is also a spiritual practice in many religions. Every year during the month of Ramadan, 4 is a religious holiday, Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. Many Hindus fast on special occasions, as do some Christians and Buddhists. Of course, not everyone fasts for political or religious reasons. Some people occasionally fast just 5 it makes them feel better. The American writer Mark Twain thought fasting was the best medicine for common illnesses. 6 he had a cold or a fever, he stopped eating completely. He said that this always made his cold or fever go away. Another American writer, Upton Sinclair, discovered 7 fasting brought about after years of overeating, indigestion, and headaches. His first fast last for 12 days. During this time, his headaches and stomachaches went away. Sinclair said that fasting also made him 8 (alert) and energetic. Despite the advantages, choosing to go 9 food can be very dangerous. However, that doesn’t stop people from 10 (fast) for political, religious, or health reasons.

A．affect     B．wonders     C． differences     D．count      E. basis F. effort     G. means    H. determine     I. positive       J. limitation K. accomplished You Don’t Need More Than Two Years Two years is nothing, but at the same time a lot can be 11 in two years. You can try a sport you’ve always wanted to start, and become great at it. You can start a morning routine and 12 your mood and stress at a deep level. You can meditate for a few minutes per day, become more self-aware and change the way you react to problems. Two years is nothing and extremely easy to waste, but with small actions, substantial commitment and consistency, you can make it 13 . Two years being passive is a blink of an eye. Two years moving towards goals every single day is plenty of time. It’s just a matter of perspective. There is nothing that cannot be accomplished in two years with enough 14 . You’re not too old for the things you were dreaming of doing when you were a kid. You can still do extreme sports if you wish to. You can start playing a musical instrument. In two years from now, you’ll be great at it if you really want to. Don’t let your past 15 who you are. You don’t have to be the same person you have always been. Don’t let fear control you. Don’t let the social standards confine you. Age is just a number, we should all empower our uniqueness and fight against our own 16 . By doing things you love on a daily basis, even for a few minutes, you’ll learn to enjoy the journey. The days will become more than just a 17 to an end. You’ll see yourself evolving. If you had the choice between feeling great, energetic and in a 18 mood, versus feeling sleepy and moody, what would you choose? It’s just a choice, which combined with small, even tiny actions like reducing meat or alcohol consumption, or simply drinking more water, walking the stairs or biking to the office, can do 19 . It’s not about the end goal. It’s about daily actions towards it. It has a lot to do with setting goals, but goals without actions are just wishes. The easiest way to reach goals is through daily and consistent small (even tiny) actions. It’s all about consistency, commitment, and regularity. Success is not an event, it’s a process and a mindset. Small actions are putting you in the position of succeeding. Small actions make huge 20 . Look at yourself in the mirror in two years and you’ll think “that was quick!” III. Reading Comprehension (45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context Being less than perfectly well-dressed in a business setting can result in a feeling of great discomfort and you have to be very careful as to what to wear. The truth is that “clothing mismatches” on the job can ruin the day of the person who is wearing the 21 attire (着装) — and the people with whom he or she comes in contact. Offices vary when it comes to dress codes. Some businesses have very high standards for their employees and set strict guidelines for office attire, while others maintain a more 22 attitude. However, it is always important to remember that no matter what your company’s 23 is regarding what you wear, you are working in a business environment and you should dress 24 . Certain items may be more appropriate for evening wear than for a business meeting, just as shorts and a T-shirt are better suited for the beach than for an office environment. Your attire should reflect both your environment and your 25 . A senior vice president has a different 26 to maintain than that of a secretary or sales assistant. Like it or not, you will be judged by your personal 27 . This is never more apparent than on “dress-down days”, when what you 28 can say more about you than any business suit ever could. 29 , people will pay more attention to what you wear on dress-down days than on “business professional” days. Thus, when dressing in “business casual” clothes, try to put some good 30 into your choices. Avoid jeans. For men, try wearing a neat pair of pants and buttoned shirt. For women, wear skirts or tailored pants with blouses. Remember, there are borders between your career and your 31 life. You should dress one way for play and another way when you mean 32 . Always ask yourself where you are going and how other people will be 33 when you get there. Is the final destination the opera, the beach, or the office? Dress properly and you will discover the truth in the principle that 34 make the man — and the women. When in doubt, it’s always safe on the side of dressing slightly more 35 than the situation demands. 21．A．fashionable B．magnificent C．moderate D．inappropriate 22．A．humble B．relaxed C．subtle D．unexpected 23．A．fame B．scale C．attitude D．determination 24．A．properly B．casually C．enormously D．extremely 25．A．education B．culture C．position D．experience 26．A．emotion B．knowledge C．interest D．image 27．A．background B．information C．charm D．appearance 28．A．think B．wear C．do D．believe 29．A．In fact B．On the contrary C．In addition D．For example 30．A．material B．pattern C．taste D．personality 31．A．normal B．mental C．academic D．social 32．A．leisure B．vacation C．business D．break 33．A．invited B．dressed C．paid D．treated 34．A．clothes B．abilities C．achievements D．choices 35．A．informally B．traditionally C．personally D．adequately Section B Directions: Read the following three passages.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A He was already asleep. His bag stood ready by the backdoor. His pencil box was filled with freshly sharpened pencils. A big day lay ahead. My eyes filled with tears as I thought about his new journey in the morning. My baby was off to high school. I thought back to his first day of kindergarten . How he ran in excitement to the bus as my heart broke, how his smiling face in the window caused my tears to flow. I thought about how hard it was to let go of his hand and let him fly on his own for the first time. But this time, I found it was even harder. Kindergarten is paper and glue sticks. High school is computer projects and technology you don’t understand. Kindergarten is Mother’s Day gifts made with hand-prints. High school is a funny card and a “Love you, Ma.” Kindergarten is emails to the teacher about his difficulty with math. High school is depending on him to ask for help in class. Kindergarten is afternoons at the park. High school is keys to the car. Kindergarten is excited talk about his day. High school is just “My day was fine, Ma.” Kindergarten is the beginning. High school is the beginning of the end. You know that your time with him at home will become less and less. The moments where your family will always feel complete at the end of the day are coming to an end. I’ve raised him to leave us. I’ve raised him to be independent , and I’m watching him pull away, one day at a time. As I watched him board the bus to high school, my eyes filled with tears again and my heart ached more deeply than it did on his first day of kindergarten. The bus pulled away, and my eyes met his. He gave a quick wave and mouthed, “Love you.” And then he made a silly face, and he wanted his mom to go back into the house now and set her mind at rest. I waved back and laughed. High school, here we come. 36．How did the author find sending her son to high school? A．It would steal his love for her. B．It was much easier than she had expected.

The mathematician Ada Lovelace and the physicist James Clerk Maxwell were both accomplished poets. The poet John Keats was a licensed surgeon. Combining the two practices fell out of favor in the 1800s. But translating research into lyrics, haiku, and other poetic forms is resurging among scientists as they look for alternative ways to inspire others with their findings. “Poetry is a great tool for questioning the world,” says Sam Illingworth, a poet and a geoscientist who works at the University of Western Australia. Through workshops and a new science-poetry journal, called Consilience, Illingworth is helping scientists to translate their latest results into poems that can attract appreciation from those outside of their immediate scientific field. Stephany Mazon, a scientist from the University of Helsinki in Finland, joined one of Illingworth’s workshops. In the workshop, she was grouped with other scientists and tasked with writing a haiku, a 17-syllable-long poem, which spotlighted water, a fluid that featured in all of the group members’ research projects. “It was a lot of fun, and surprisingly easy to write the poem,” Mazon says. She plans to continue writing. “We do a disservice (伤害) to ourselves to think that scientists can’t be artistic and that art can’t be used to communicate scientific ideas,” Mazon says. That viewpoint is echoed by Illingworth, who thinks science communication initiatives are too often dominated by public lectures with their hands-off PowerPoint slides. “Actually, when science communication involves writing and sharing poems, it invites a two-way dialogue between experts and nonexperts,” he says. Scientist-poet Manjula Silva, an educator at Imperial College London, agrees. Poetry provides a useful way to translate complex scientific concepts into a language that everyone can understand, Silva says. Scientists and poets are both trying to understand the world and communicate that understanding with others. The distinction between scientists and poets is less than people might think. We’re all just people with hopefully really interesting things to say and to share. 43．Why are these celebrities mentioned in paragraph 1? A．To inspire others with their brilliant findings. B．To confirm poetry and science were different. C．To demonstrate that all of them were talented. D．To show poetry and science can be combined. 44．What are Illingworth’s workshops aimed to do? A．Translate the latest results into different languages. B．Inspire outsiders to pursue their careers in science. C．Encourage science communication through poems. D．Help scientists exchange ideas about their research. 45．What does Manjula Silva think of the function of poetry? A．Effective. B．Conventional. C．Innovative. D．Complex. 46．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Scientists Take on Poetry to Communicate B．Poetry: A Great Tool to Question the World C．Remarkable Scientists and Poets Think Alike D．Science Communication: A Two-way Dialogue Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.What happens when we experience emotions? In brief, emotional responses have four parts. There is a bodily (physiological) response, an interpretation in the mind, feelings, and an effect on behaviour. These do not happen in any special order - they happen at the same time and affect each other. 47 To understand the physiological response, imagine you are frightened by an aggressive, noisy dog. Your brain sends messages throughout your body. It does this by releasing a chemical called adrenaline, which the blood carries to other parts of the body. Then, the bodily sensations of being frightened begin. Blood drains from your stomach (giving a feeling we describe as a "knot in the stomach"). The blood vessels（血管）in the face become narrower (which makes you become white). Similar processes exist for other emotions. 48 This helps the person get ready for a fight. The second aspect of emotion is interpretation in the ind of events and feelings. This is both conscious and unconscious. In fact, the more you think about the dog, the more frightened you become. Thinking like this sends both your feelings and your physical arousal to new heights. 49 In one, the brain senses the body's state of arousal. The other comes from memories of your body's reactions in similar situations in the past. So, when you see the angry dog, your brain may remember your feelings from past experiences with angry dogs. Finally, emotions can also affect behavior. 50 In this, the person either becomes aggressive or runs away. Responses may also include facial expressions and sounds, such as crying, screaming or shouting. There may also be gestures, such as waving arms. A．The “feeling” aspect of emotions comes from two sources. B．We will illustrate this process with the most carefully studied of all emotions: fear. C．In response to the aggressive dog, this could be the so-called "fight-or-flight" response which appears to be part of our biology. D．We should make clear, however, that emotions are not completely fixed by our biology. E．With anger, for example, more blood flows to the hands, and more energy is released. F．Fear, for example, undoubtedly helped people thousands of years ago to respond to dangerous situations. IV. Summary Writing （10分） 51．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in NO MORE THAN 60 WORDS. Use your own words as far as possible. Building up your muscles is an easy part—the hard part is burning those layers of fat that cover your muscles. Here are some tips. In order to work out harder, make a favorite fitness playlist with music that gets you excited, as it can help you go up to 20% longer and burn more calories, according to a study of Brunel University London. The study’s researcher says that music tends to prevent tiredness, and produces feelings of excitement. Not only does eating good breakfast speed up your metabolism(新陈代谢), but it also nourishes (为……提供营养) your muscles. After eating breakfast, your best way of keeping fat burning going is to “graze”. Set up an eating schedule where you eat five to eight small meals every few hours throughout the day. It provides your body with a constant flow of nourishment to feed your muscles. Men’s Health suggests choosing hard exercise that involves total body movements in order to help raise your heart rate and leave you out of breath. By including total body movements into your exercise, you’re going to end up burning a lot more calories while challenging yourself at the same time. As the saying goes: No pain, no gain. So, get moving. Sounds easy enough, right? It’s as simple as drinking a cup of green tea every day. Adding in green tea will push fat burning to another level. And studies have shown that it can increase fat burning and help you lose weight. While doing your weight training, try something including short, big bursts of cardio(心脏强化锻炼) throughout your exercise. For example, if you’re doing an hour-long exercise, place cardio into it every 15 minutes to help speed up your metabolism. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.

The truth is that “clothing mismatches” on the job can ruin the day of the person who is wearing the 21 attire (着装) — and the people with whom he or she comes in contact. Offices vary when it comes to dress codes. Some businesses have very high standards for their employees and set strict guidelines for office attire, while others maintain a more 22 attitude. However, it is always important to remember that no matter what your company’s 23 is regarding what you wear, you are working in a business environment and you should dress 24 . Certain items may be more appropriate for evening wear than for a business meeting, just as shorts and a T-shirt are better suited for the beach than for an office environment. Your attire should reflect both your environment and your 25 . A senior vice president has a different 26 to maintain than that of a secretary or sales assistant. Like it or not, you will be judged by your personal 27 . This is never more apparent than on “dress-down days”, when what you 28 can say more about you than any business suit ever could. 29 , people will pay more attention to what you wear on dress-down days than on “business professional” days. Thus, when dressing in “business casual” clothes, try to put some good 30 into your choices. Avoid jeans. For men, try wearing a neat pair of pants and buttoned shirt. For women, wear skirts or tailored pants with blouses. Remember, there are borders between your career and your 31 life. You should dress one way for play and another way when you mean 32 . Always ask yourself where you are going and how other people will be 33 when you get there. Is the final destination the opera, the beach, or the office? Dress properly and you will discover the truth in the principle that 34 make the man — and the women. When in doubt, it’s always safe on the side of dressing slightly more 35 than the situation demands. 21．A．fashionable B．magnificent C．moderate D．inappropriate 22．A．humble B．relaxed C．subtle D．unexpected 23．A．fame B．scale C．attitude D．determination 24．A．properly B．casually C．enormously D．extremely 25．A．education B．culture C．position D．experience 26．A．emotion B．knowledge C．interest D．image 27．A．background B．information C．charm D．appearance 28．A．think B．wear C．do D．believe 29．A．In fact B．On the contrary C．In addition D．For example 30．A．material B．pattern C．taste D．personality 31．A．normal B．mental C．academic D．social 32．A．leisure B．vacation C．business D．break 33．A．invited B．dressed C．paid D．treated 34．A．clothes B．abilities C．achievements D．choices 35．A．informally B．traditionally C．personally D．adequately 【答案】 21．D 22．B 23．C 24．A 25．C 26．D 27．D 28．B 29．A 30．C 31．D 32．C 33．B 34．A 35．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在职场环境中着装的重要性，不同公司对着装要求的不同态度，以及个人着装如何反映其环境和职位，同时给出了一些着装建议。 21．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：事实是，工作中的“服装不匹配”可能会让穿着不当的人以及与他或她接触的人的一天都毁掉。A. fashionable时尚的；B. magnificent壮丽的；C. moderate适度的；D. inappropriate不适当的。根据上文“Being less than perfectly well-dressed in a business setting can result in a feeling of great discomfort”和“clothing mismatches”可知，文中谈论的是穿不恰当的服装带来的影响。故选D。 22．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：一些企业对员工有着很高的要求，并为办公着装制定了严格的指导方针，而其他企业则持更为宽松的态度。A. humble谦卑的；B. relaxed放松的，宽松的；C. subtle微妙的；D. unexpected出乎意料的。根据上文“Some businesses have very high standards for their employees and set strict guidelines office for attire”和“while others”可知，前后形成对比，一些公司对员工着装有着很高的要求，而其他公司对此持更宽松的态度。故选B。 23．考查名词词义辨析。句意：然而，重要的是要记住，无论你的公司对你穿什么持什么态度，你都是在一个商业环境中工作，你应该穿着得体。A. fame名声；B. scale规模；C. attitude态度；D. determination决心。根据上文“Some businesses have very high standards for their employees and set strict guidelines for office attire, while others maintain a more 2 attitude.”和“company’s ”可知，文中说的公司对员工穿着的态度。故选C。 24．考查副词词义辨析。句意同上。A. properly适当地；B. casually随意地；C. enormously巨大地；D. extremely极其。根据上文“you are working in a business environment”和下文“Certain items may be more appropriate for evening wear than for a business meeting, just as shorts and a T-shirt are better suited for the beach than for an office environment. ”可知，商业环境与其它非正式环境不同，应该穿着得体。故选A。 25．考查名词词义辨析。句意：你的着装应该反映出你的环境和你的职位。A. education教育；B. culture文化；C. position职位；D. experience经验。根据下文“A senior vice president has a different 6 to maintain than that of a secretary or sales assistant.”可知，着装应该反映出个人的职位。故选C。 26．考查名词词义辨析。句意：高级副总裁需要保持的形象与秘书或销售代表不同。A. emotion情感；B. knowledge知识；C. interest兴趣；D. image形象。根据上文“A senior vice president”和下文“than that of a secretary or sales assistant”可推知，高级副总裁与秘书或销售代表身份不同，需要保持的形象不一样。故选D。 27．考查名词词义辨析。句意：不管你喜不喜欢，人们都会根据你的外表来评判你。A. background背景；B. information信息；C. charm魅力；D. appearance外表。根据上文“A senior vice president has a different 6 to maintain than that of a secretary or sales assistant.”和“you will be judged by”可r推知，不同身份有不同的形象，人们会根据你的外表来对你进行评判。故选D。 28．考查动词词义辨析。句意：这一点在“便装日”表现得最为明显，此时你的穿着比任何商务套装都更能体现你的个性。A. think思考；B. wear穿；C. do做；D. believe相信。根据上文“on ‘dress-down days’”和下文“than any business suit”可知，便装日穿什么比任何商务套装都能说明你的个性。故选B。 29．考查介词短语辨析。句意：事实上，在便装日，人们会比在“商务专业”日更关注你的穿着。A.

The moments where your family will always feel complete at the end of the day are coming to an end. I’ve raised him to leave us. I’ve raised him to be independent , and I’m watching him pull away, one day at a time. As I watched him board the bus to high school, my eyes filled with tears again and my heart ached more deeply than it did on his first day of kindergarten. The bus pulled away, and my eyes met his. He gave a quick wave and mouthed, “Love you.” And then he made a silly face, and he wanted his mom to go back into the house now and set her mind at rest. I waved back and laughed. High school, here we come. 36．How did the author find sending her son to high school? A．It would steal his love for her. B．It was much easier than she had expected.

How he ran in excitement to the bus as my heart broke, how his smiling face in the window caused my tears to flow. I thought about how hard it was to let go of his hand and let him fly on his own for the first time. But this time, I found it was even harder. (我回想起他上幼儿园的第一天。他是如何在我心碎的时候兴奋地跑向公共汽车，他在车窗里的笑脸是如何让我热泪盈眶。我想，这是我第一次放开他的手，让他自己飞起来，这是多么困难啊。但这一次，我发现更难了。)”和最后一段中的“As I watched him board the bus to high school, my eyes filled with tears again and my heart ached more deeply than it did on his first day of kindergarten. (当我看着他登上去高中的公共汽车时，我的眼里又充满了泪水，我的心比他第一天上幼儿园时更加心痛。)”可知，作者当初第一天送儿子上幼儿园时感到难以放手，到了送儿子上高中时，作者感到更加难过，因而更难以放手。故选D。 37．推理判断题。根据第三段“Kindergarten is paper and glue sticks. High school is computer projects and technology you don’t understand. Kindergarten is Mother’s Day gifts made with hand-prints.

But that wasn’t always the case. The mathematician Ada Lovelace and the physicist James Clerk Maxwell were both accomplished poets. The poet John Keats was a licensed surgeon. Combining the two practices fell out of favor in the 1800s. But translating research into lyrics, haiku, and other poetic forms is resurging among scientists as they look for alternative ways to inspire others with their findings. “Poetry is a great tool for questioning the world,” says Sam Illingworth, a poet and a geoscientist who works at the University of Western Australia. Through workshops and a new science-poetry journal, called Consilience, Illingworth is helping scientists to translate their latest results into poems that can attract appreciation from those outside of their immediate scientific field. Stephany Mazon, a scientist from the University of Helsinki in Finland, joined one of Illingworth’s workshops. In the workshop, she was grouped with other scientists and tasked with writing a haiku, a 17-syllable-long poem, which spotlighted water, a fluid that featured in all of the group members’ research projects. “It was a lot of fun, and surprisingly easy to write the poem,” Mazon says. She plans to continue writing. “We do a disservice (伤害) to ourselves to think that scientists can’t be artistic and that art can’t be used to communicate scientific ideas,” Mazon says. That viewpoint is echoed by Illingworth, who thinks science communication initiatives are too often dominated by public lectures with their hands-off PowerPoint slides. “Actually, when science communication involves writing and sharing poems, it invites a two-way dialogue between experts and nonexperts,” he says. Scientist-poet Manjula Silva, an educator at Imperial College London, agrees. Poetry provides a useful way to translate complex scientific concepts into a language that everyone can understand, Silva says. Scientists and poets are both trying to understand the world and communicate that understanding with others. The distinction between scientists and poets is less than people might think. We’re all just people with hopefully really interesting things to say and to share. 43．Why are these celebrities mentioned in paragraph 1? A．To inspire others with their brilliant findings. B．To confirm poetry and science were different. C．To demonstrate that all of them were talented. D．To show poetry and science can be combined. 44．What are Illingworth’s workshops aimed to do? A．Translate the latest results into different languages. B．Inspire outsiders to pursue their careers in science. C．Encourage science communication through poems. D．Help scientists exchange ideas about their research. 45．What does Manjula Silva think of the function of poetry? A．Effective. B．Conventional. C．Innovative. D．Complex. 46．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Scientists Take on Poetry to Communicate B．Poetry: A Great Tool to Question the World C．Remarkable Scientists and Poets Think Alike D．Science Communication: A Two-way Dialogue 【答案】43．D 44．C 45．A 46．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家和诗人之间的联系。文章提到了一些名人，以显示诗歌和科学并不总是被认为是互相排斥的职业道路。 43．推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“The mathematician Ada Lovelace and the physicist James Clerk Maxwell were both accomplished poets. The poet John Keats was a licensed surgeon. Combining the two practices fell out of favor in the 1800s. But translating research into lyrics, haiku, and other poetic forms is resurging (再现) among scientists as they look for alternative ways to inspire others with their findings. (数学家Ada Lovelace和物理学家James Clerk Maxwell都是有成就的诗人。诗人约翰济慈是一名有执照的外科医生。将这两种做法结合起来在19世纪失宠。但是，将研究翻译成歌词、俳句和其他诗歌形式正在科学家中重新兴起，因为他们正在寻找替代方法来用他们的发现激励他人。)”可知，原文中提到了传统观念中的诗人和科学家不同，但也提到了历史上有一些科学家也具有诗人才华。提到这些历史人物的目的是表明诗歌和科学是可以相结合的，故选D。 44．细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Through workshops and a new science-poetry journal, called Consilience, Illingworth is helping scientists to translate their latest results into poems that can attract appreciation from those outside of their immediate scientific field. (通过研讨会和一本名为Consilience的新科学诗歌期刊，伊林沃思正在帮助科学家将他们的最新成果转化为诗歌，以吸引他们所在科学领域以外的人的欣赏。)”可知，伊林沃思的研讨会旨在鼓励通过诗歌进行科学交流。故选C。 45．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“That viewpoint is echoed by Illingworth, who thinks science communication initiatives are too often dominated by public lectures with their hands-off PowerPoint slides. “Actually, when science communication involves writing and sharing poems, it invites a two-way dialogue between experts and nonexperts,” he says. Scientist-poet Manjula Silva, an educator at Imperial College London, agrees. Poetry provides a useful way to translate complex scientific concepts into a language that everyone can understand, Silva says.(这一观点得到了伊利沃斯的赞同，他认为科学传播计划常常被公开讲座和不干涉的PowerPoint幻灯片所主导。他说：“实际上，当科学传播涉及到写作和分享诗歌时，它会邀请专家和非专家之间进行双向对话。”伦敦帝国理工学院的教育家、科学家诗人曼朱拉·席尔瓦对此表示赞同。西尔瓦说，诗歌提供了一种将复杂的科学概念翻译成人人都能理解的语言的有用方法。)”可知，曼朱拉·西尔瓦认为诗歌的功能是有效。故选A。 46．主旨大意题。根据全文可知，文中提到了一些历史人物，如数学家 Ada Lovelace 和物理学家James Clerk Maxwell 都是杰出的诗人，说明诗歌和科学在过去并不是相互排斥的领域。但是在19世纪，将两种领域结合起来的做法逐渐没落。现在，随着科学家们在寻找更多向外部人员灌输科研成果的方法，将研究成果转化为诗歌、俳句等文学形式的做法再次流行起来。文章介绍了Sam Illingworth学者和诗人的身份交替和新的科学诗歌杂志 Consilience，以及他如何鼓励科学家们将自己的成果转化为韵文和诗歌，从而向更广泛的受众灌输他们的最新研究成果。此外，文章也引用了科学家Manjula Silva的观点，认为诗歌为将复杂的科学概念转化为大家都可以理解的语言提供了方便，综上，文章主要强调科学家开始研究诗歌(通过诗歌的形式传播交流科学)。故选A。 Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. What happens when we experience emotions? In brief, emotional responses have four parts. There is a bodily (physiological) response, an interpretation in the mind, feelings, and an effect on behaviour. These do not happen in any special order - they happen at the same time and affect each other. 47 To understand the physiological response, imagine you are frightened by an aggressive, noisy dog. Your brain sends messages throughout your body. It does this by releasing a chemical called adrenaline, which the blood carries to other parts of the body. Then, the bodily sensations of being frightened begin. Blood drains from your stomach (giving a feeling we describe as a "knot in the stomach"). The blood vessels（血管）in the face become narrower (which makes you become white). Similar processes exist for other emotions. 48 This helps the person get ready for a fight. The second aspect of emotion is interpretation in the ind of events and feelings. This is both conscious and unconscious. In fact, the more you think about the dog, the more frightened you become. Thinking like this sends both your feelings and your physical arousal to new heights. 49 In one, the brain senses the body's state of arousal. The other comes from memories of your body's reactions in similar situations in the past. So, when you see the angry dog, your brain may remember your feelings from past experiences with angry dogs. Finally, emotions can also affect behavior. 50 In this, the person either becomes aggressive or runs away. Responses may also include facial expressions and sounds, such as crying, screaming or shouting. There may also be gestures, such as waving arms. A．The “feeling” aspect of emotions comes from two sources. B．We will illustrate this process with the most carefully studied of all emotions: fear. C．In response to the aggressive dog, this could be the so-called "fight-or-flight" response which appears to be part of our biology. D．We should make clear, however, that emotions are not completely fixed by our biology. E．With anger, for example, more blood flows to the hands, and more energy is released. F．Fear, for example, undoubtedly helped people thousands of years ago to respond to dangerous situations. 【答案】47．B 48．E 49．A 50．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了情绪反应的四部分：身体上(生理上)的反应，心理上的解释，感觉，以及情绪对行为的影响。 47．根据上文中的“In brief, emotional responses have four parts. There is a bodily (physiological) response, an interpretation in the mind, feelings, and an effect on behaviour. These do not happen in any special order - they happen at the same time and affect each other(简而言之，情绪反应有四个部分。有一种身体（生理）反应，一种心理解释，以及对行为的影响。这些都不会以任何特殊的顺序发生——它们同时发生并相互影响)”可知，情绪反应有四部分：身体上(生理上)的反应，心理上的解释，感觉，以及情绪对行为的影响。这些事情并不以任何特殊的顺序发生——它们同时发生并且相互影响。下文四段分别对这四部分进行了解释。那么，该句应该是一个概括下文，引出下文的句子。结合第二段中的“imagine you are frightened”可知，从第二段开始，文章以恐惧为例介绍了情绪反应的过程。结合选项，B选项(我们将用所有情绪中研究得最仔细的一种(恐惧)来说明这一过程)符合语境。故选B。 48．第二段前半部分介绍的是当恐惧发生时的生理反应。根据空前“Similar processes exist for other emotions(其他情感也存在类似的过程)”可知，该空应该介绍另一种情感，以及这种情感发生时的生理反应过程。结合选项，E选项(例如，在愤怒时，更多的血液流向手部，释放出更多的能量)符合语境。同时和空后的“This helps the person get ready for a fight(这有助于人们为战斗做好准备)”呼应。故选E。 49．第三段介绍的生理反应，第四段介绍的是心理上的解释，最后一段介绍的是情绪对行为的影响。那么，该段应该介绍情绪反应过程中的“感觉”这一部分。该空位于段首，要提到“feeling”这一话题。根据空后的“In one, the brain senses the body's state of arousal. The other comes from memories of your body's reactions in similar situations in the past(一种是大脑感知身体的觉醒状态。另一种来自你对过去类似情况下身体反应的记忆)”可知，该空还应该引出下文，提到感觉来自两个方面。结合选项，A选项(情感的“感觉”方面有两个来源)符合语境。故选A。 50．根据前文“Finally, emotions can also affect behavior”可知，情绪也会影响行为。该空承接上文，应该对此进行进一步说明。剩余选项C、D和F中，只有D选项(然而，我们应该清楚的是，情绪并不完全由我们的生理决定)与之相关。下文“In this, the person either becomes aggressive or runs away(在这种情况下，这个人要么变得好斗，要么逃跑)”，也说明了这一点：生理不能完全决定情绪。故选D。 IV. Summary Writing （10分） 51．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in NO MORE THAN 60 WORDS. Use your own words as far as possible. Building up your muscles is an easy part—the hard part is burning those layers of fat that cover your muscles. Here are some tips. In order to work out harder, make a favorite fitness playlist with music that gets you excited, as it can help you go up to 20% longer and burn more calories, according to a study of Brunel University London. The study’s researcher says that music tends to prevent tiredness, and produces feelings of excitement. Not only does eating good breakfast speed up your metabolism(新陈代谢), but it also nourishes (为……提供营养) your muscles. After eating breakfast, your best way of keeping fat burning going is to “graze”. Set up an eating schedule where you eat five to eight small meals every few hours throughout the day. It provides your body with a constant flow of nourishment to feed your muscles. Men’s Health suggests choosing hard exercise that involves total body movements in order to help raise your heart rate and leave you out of breath. By including total body movements into your exercise, you’re going to end up burning a lot more calories while challenging yourself at the same time. As the saying goes: No pain, no gain. So, get moving. Sounds easy enough, right? It’s as simple as drinking a cup of green tea every day. Adding in green tea will push fat burning to another level. And studies have shown that it can increase fat burning and help you lose weight. While doing your weight training, try something including short, big bursts of cardio(心脏强化锻炼) throughout your exercise. For example, if you’re doing an hour-long exercise, place cardio into it every 15 minutes to help speed up your metabolism. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Here are some tips to burn layers of fat that cover muscles.
