一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30分)
If you are planning a tour to France, September is one of the best choices. Not only will you get to enjoy plenty of sunshine and warm weather, but the tourist season is beginning to wind down-which means cheaper airfares, lower prices at hotels, and fewer crowds. If this is your first trip to France , here is some handy information to help you!
Visiting Museums
Many museums in France have extended opening hours during the summer to adapt to the extra tourists from home and abroad, and some museums also have extended opening hours into September. Wandering around the Louvre(卢浮宫)will take you into a wonder world, where you can enjoy world- famous art. Going out of the Louvre, you can walk to the modern and fashionable Chumps Elysees to do some shopping.
Taking a Cruise(乘船游览)
The temperatures are slightly lower, but plenty of sunshine makes for perfect conditions to enjoy a barge cruise on the canals of France. Willi such comfortable weather and beautiful scenery at this time of year, nothing equals hanging out on the deck of a barge.
Wine Tasting
September is the beginning of the grape harvest season in France meaning there are plenty of wine- related events and festivals around the country. So September is a great time to visit the vineyards(葡萄园) around the country and go wine tasting. The Bordeaux, Loire and Burgundy regions are all lovely and great places to visit vineyards. Besides that, going to the castles of the Loire region between visiting vineyards on such warm and sunny days is also very enjoyable.
Besides the above, riding a bike through France's villages is also a welcome activity for young visitors in September. So, don't hesitate and start to plan your September trip to France now.

Maestro Martins, from Brazil, fell in love with the piano when he learned to play at the age of eight. He then went on to become a famous classical pianist. His life was devoted to the piano. However, in 1965, this musician suffered an injury that left him with damage in one arm. Martins could play with one hand but suffered from a neurological (神经系统的) problem. This resulted in a lack of good control of his hands.
Determined to recover and play the piano, he went through 24 operations. None of the procedures worked. Yet he pursued his love of music and he became a composer. Martins travelled the world as a composer with some of the best European and American orchestras (管弦乐队).
His life then took a beautiful turn. Industrial designer Ubiratan Bizarro Costa came up with a solution for him, presenting Martins with a pair of bionic (仿生的) gloves. The black gloves Save iron rods made with a 3D printer, so after a finger is lowered onto a piano key, the gloves assist it to spring back.
With tears streaming down his face, Martins felt true gratitude as he started to play his favorite piano. “To be able to use all ten fingers again more than 20 years later is a miracle for me at the age of 80,” Martins said. It gave Martins pause to simply appreciate one’s fingers for all the work, creativity, and skills they could offer. And now Martins’ dream has actually come true; he has been reunited with his beloved piano; his fingers are now flying across the keys merrily.
As for Bizarro, he plans to produce and export his bionic gloves. His discovery may renew hope for many people around the world. Some people will be able to use their fingers once again. His invention will show how emotional, creative, and inspiring one’s fingers can actually be.
4.What do we know about Martins from the first paragraph?
A.He showed a talent for piano at a young age.
B.He gave up playing the piano after falling ill.
C.He developed a passion for piano to kill time.
D.He had great difficulty playing the piano after an injury.
5.What did Martins do after his operations?
A.He continued devoting himself to the music career.
B.He travelled overseas to enjoy concerts with friends.
C.He looked for special piano keys to work on music creations.
D.He assisted Ubiratan Bizarro Costa to produce bionic gloves.
6.How did Martins feel while playing with the bionic gloves?
A.He was proud of his achievements.
B.He felt concerned about his future career.
C.He felt a sense of responsibility for music education.
D.He was excited to regain his pleasure in playing the piano.
7.What can we infer about the bionic gloves?
A.They will help more people pursue their dreams.
B.They will become popular for their simple design.
C.They need to be improved to offer better services.
D.They will inspire more people to study musical instruments.
In recent decades, it has become clear that consumers’ decision-making process is influenced by their emotions. Traditionally, people have been asked how they feel about products and services, but since individuals are often unaware of their own emotions, their responses may not accurately reflect reality.
Consumer neuroscience investigations have helped create a deeper understanding of the role of emotions in consumer-related choices. Emotions can be broadly categorized as positive or negative; examples of positive emotions include love, pride, and happiness, while negative emotions include anger, disgust, and fear. Both types of emotions cause physiological responses.
Distinguishing between different types of emotions is more important than classifying them as positive or negative. When sad, consumers tend to be willing to pay more for goods and are drawn towards high-risk, high-reward options. For instance, an environmentalist shopping at a supermarket might focus on getting one item for free in a two-for-one offer rather than thinking they don’t need two identical products.
Anxiety can reduce the likelihood of making risky choices and make individuals careless about rewards, similar to the effect of some positive emotions. Negative moods like fear and anger also influence risk-related decision-making differently: anger leads to more optimistic assessments, while fear results in more pessimistic risk assessments. Stress is perhaps the most problematic emotion for consumers when it comes to risk-seeking. It’s common for consumers to rush into decisions between work or social activities, feeling pressured to make quick choices. This stress can increase risk-seeking behavior, leading to regrettable decisions.
Purchases often involve making predictions about how we may feel when we have bought something. For example, will buying a new hat make me feel good? Unfortunately, consumers are not good at predicting how they will feel in the future. This means that people often purchase something on the basis that they think it will make them happy. However, as it is common to overestimate the future emotions of happiness linked to products, consumers often feel disappointed with the item as it does not live up to their emotional expectations.
8.What probably causes consumers to make improper decisions?
A.Misjudgement of reality. B.Unaware of emotions.
C.Slow reflection to service. D.Preference for certain products.
9.Which emotion makes consumers more willing to pay a higher price despite the risks?
A.Love. B.Pride. C.Anxiety. D.Sadness.
10.Which is a reasonable suggestion to consumers according to the text?
A.Consider only immediate rewards.
B.Avoid making decisions under pressure.
C.Focus on product quality when shopping.
D.Predict future emotions before making a purchase.
11.Why do consumers sometimes feel disappointed with their purchases?
A.They accurately predict their future emotions.
B.They underestimate the happiness linked to products.
C.They have very high requirements for products.
D.They don’t get the pleasure they expected of the products.
The book Brand Sense: Sensory Secrets Behind the Stuff We Buy, written by Martin Lindstrom, reveals what the world’s most successful branding companies do differently—integrating touch, taste, smell, sight, and sound—with startling and measurable results.
Based on a large study conducted on how our five senses affect the creation of brands, Brand Sense explains Martin Lindstrom’s six-step programme for bringing brand building into the new era. The study, covering over a dozen countries worldwide, was conducted exclusively for this book by Millward Brown, one of the largest business research institutions in the world. Drawing on many examples of both product creation and retail experience, Lindstrom shows how to establish a marketing approach that appeals to all the senses, not simply the conventional reliance on sight and sound. Research shows that a full 75% of our emotions are in fact generated by what we smell, and the author explains how to capitalize on that insight. Included are innovative tools for evaluating a brand’s place on the sensory scale, analysing its future sensory potential, and enhancing its appeal to reach the broadest base of consumers. Lindstrom lists the top twenty brands for the future based on their sensory awareness.
Among the book’s many fascinating factual highlights are the following:
·That gratifying new-car smell that accompanies the purchase of a new car is actually a factory-installed aerosol can containing “new-car” aroma.
·Kellogg’s trademarked crunchy sound and feel of eating cornflakes was created in sound labs and patented in the same way that the company owns its recipe and logo.
·Singapore Airlines has patented a scent that is part of every female flight attendant’s perfume, as well as blended into the hot towels served before take-off, and which generally permeates their entire fleet of aeroplanes.
·Starbucks’ sensory uniqueness is far less strongly associated with the smell and taste of coffee than with the interior design of its cafes and its green and white logo.
Martin Lindstrom is an entrepreneurial visionary with twenty years of hands-on experience as an advertising CEO and adviser to Fortune 500 companies. Firmly steeped in scientific evidence and featuring sensory secrets of the most successful brand names, Brand Sense reveals how to transform marketing strategies into positive business results that no brand builder can afford to ignore.
12.Who might be most interested in the book Brand Sense?
A.a manager in the marketing sector.
B.a white-collar worker in the Public Relations Department.
C.a university student carrying out a survey on brand image.
D.a professor specializing in neuroscience.
13.Of all the following cases of sensory marketing, which one is NOT mentioned in the book?
A.The crunchy sound that Kellogg’s made is a typical utilization of “sound” in scenery marketing.
B.The interior design of Starbucks is a good example of integrating “sight” with amazing results.
C.The “new-car” aroma is artificially created by the car factory.
D.The toilet paper on the plane is permeated with perfume to make a pleasant journey.
14.According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.This book is based on an exclusive study carried out worldwide.
B.Marketers traditionally put emphasis on sight and smell when reaching customers.
C.To a great extent, what we smell is closely related to how we feel.
D.Kellogg’s is probably a corporation that produces foods and snacks.
15.What kind of rhetorical device (修辞手法) does the word “sense” in the title of the book Brand Sense employ?
A.Personification. B.Analogy. C.Pun. D.Metaphor.
二、七选五(本大题共5小题,共10分)
How to Boost Happiness
Spend time with your closest friends
According to Oxford psychologist Robert Dunbar, more than 60 percent of our social time is devoted to our 5 closest friends. 16 From a happiness point of view, it pays to invest in those closest to you. Laughing with friends has been shown to be beneficial for your heart, lungs and stress control.
Hold open a door
Undertaking an act of kindness, such as holding open a door for a stranger triggers the brain pleasure centre. One of the largest studies into kindness, The Kindness Test, looked at 60,000 people and showed that those who regularly volunteer see a positive change in brain chemistry. 17
Strike up conversations with strangers
If you live in a large city, chances are that you don’t regularly strike up conversations with strangers. 18 Research shows that talking to strangers can stimulate our brain in ways that familiar interactions don’t, sharpening our thinking, boosting self-confidence and providing a sense of accomplishment.
Hug for a while
It might not come naturally to everyone but hugs are great for the body. 19 The reason is that it takes a while for your brain to release a hormone linked to increased trust and creativity. Hugs also trigger the release of hormones that are linked to your immune system. They have also been linked to reducing anxiety in people with low self-esteem.
20
A study in Poland found a decrease in stress in young adults who spent 15 minutes in natural surroundings. A further study by the University of Exeter found that just five minutes of nature exposure reduced stress. The best possible benefits are achieved by spending 120 minutes a week in nature — or 17 minutes a day.
A.Work out regularly.
B.Step outside to be under the sky.
C.Remember to keep doing it for seven seconds, though.
D.Actually, gratitude is strongly associated with a greater level of happiness.
E.That’s followed by 15 good friends, 50 friends and 150 meaningful contacts.
F.But doing so has been proven to boost a sense of belonging and improve mood
G.Those who carry out nice acts for strangers also report feeling more competent.

47.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Hank, let’s keep going,” old Douglas encouraged his dog as they walked through the woods behind his farm. Douglas lived alone there with his pet; he felt lonely. Sometimes, animals approached his house, and Hank would scare them away.
One day, Douglas heard the human’s cries from the forest and decided to check. Who would it be? There were no other farms nearby. And it was snowing heavily. Douglas was no longer sure where to go. His dog guided him. Finally, Douglas saw a boy.
“Boy, what are you doing here?” Douglas said. The boy was cold and tired. He couldn’t get any words out. Fortunately, Douglas wasn’t too old to carry him back to his farm. After getting home, he settled him next to the warm fire. Soon, the kid fell asleep. Douglas had no phone. And now it was dark. It was dangerous to go to the police station. He decided to find the boy’s parents the next day.
The following morning, when the boy ate breakfast, Douglas asked him some questions. The boy said his name was Jason and told Douglas his parents’ names. And he said his dog had run away yesterday afternoon chasing a rabbit. He went after her and walked for hours. He failed to find the dog and got lost into the woods.
When knowing Jason lived in the town five miles away, Douglas stood up and looked outside. It was snowing more heavily. Jason’s parents must be worried. But the road was covered with snow; his truck couldn’t move forward. And he couldn’t allow the little boy to walk with him. It was dangerous. Douglas decided to walk alone to the town and find his parents, letting them get a snowplow (扫雪机) to pick up the boy. So, Douglas told Jason to stay in his home with Hank, and he’d go to the town and find his parents.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
It would be a hard journey to the town, but Douglas still put on his snow boots and set off.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Then, Jason’s parents called their friend, who owned a snowplow.

17.空前“One of the largest studies into kindness, The Kindness Test, looked at 60,000 people and showed that those who regularly volunteer see a positive change in brain chemistry.(“善良测试”(the kindness Test)是关于善良的最大研究之一,该研究对6万人进行了调查,结果显示,那些经常做志愿者的人的大脑化学物质发生了积极的变化。)”说明了经常做志愿者的人的大脑化学物质发生了积极的变化,空格处也应该说做志愿者工作的人还能得到什么好处,G选项“Those who carry out nice acts for strangers also report feeling more competent.(那些为陌生人做好事的人也报告说自己更有能力。)”说明了做好事的人得到的另外的好处,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选G。
18.空前“If you live in a large city, chances are that you don’t regularly strike up conversations with strangers.(如果你住在大城市,你很可能不会经常和陌生人搭讪。)”说明在大城市里你可能不会经常和陌生人搭讪,空后“Research shows that talking to strangers can stimulate our brain in ways that familiar interactions don’t, sharpening our thinking, boosting self-confidence and providing a sense of accomplishment.(研究表明,与陌生人交谈可以刺激我们的大脑,以熟悉的互动所不能达到的方式,使我们的思维敏捷,增强自信,并提供成就感。)”说明了与陌生人交谈的好处,因此空格处应该引出空后的好处,F选项“But doing so has been proven to boost a sense of belonging and improve mood(但事实证明,这样做可以增强归属感,改善情绪)”说明了和陌生人搭讪的好处,空后内容是对好处的补充说明,因此F选项承上启下,符合语境,故选F。
19.空前“It might not come naturally to everyone but hugs are great for the body.(也许不是每个人都能自然而然地拥抱,但拥抱对身体有好处。)”说明了拥抱对身体好,空后“The reason is that it takes a while for your brain to release a hormone linked to increased trust and creativity.(原因是你的大脑需要一段时间才能释放出一种与增强信任和创造力有关的激素。)”说明了大脑需要一段时间才能释放出一种与增强信任和创造力有关的激素,由此可见,拥抱需要持续一点时间,C选项“Remember to keep doing it for seven seconds, though.(不过,记住要持续做7秒钟。)”说明了要持续拥抱7秒,因此承上启下,符合语境,故选C。
20.空格处是本段小标题,由空格下方“A study in Poland found a decrease in stress in young adults who spent 15 minutes in natural surroundings. A further study by the University of Exeter found that just five minutes of nature exposure reduced stress. The best possible benefits are achieved by spending 120 minutes a week in nature - or 17 minutes a day.(波兰的一项研究发现,在自然环境中待15分钟的年轻人压力有所减轻。Exeter大学的一项进一步研究发现,仅仅五分钟的自然暴露就能减轻压力。每周花120分钟到大自然中,或者每天花17分钟,就能获得最大的好处。)”可知,本段主要讲的是身处大自然的好处,B选项“Step outside to be under the sky.(走出去,站在天空下。)”说明要走到大自然中去,因此概括本段主要内容,可作为本段小标题,故选B。

47.One possible version:
It would be a hard journey to the town, but Douglas still put on his snow boots and set off. After hiking for hours, finally, he reached the town. When he was asking about Jason’s family, fortunately a store owner knew them and gave him their address. He went up and knocked, and Jason’s parents quickly answered the door. Douglas asked, “Are you Jason’s parents?” The couple nodded. Douglas then explained why he was here. Hearing this, Jason’s parents hugged Douglas thankfully and excitedly.
Then, Jason’s parents called their friend, who owned a snowplow. Together they reached Douglas’ home. The boy rushed to his parents, crying. “Thank you, sir,” the boy said when they were about to leave. “Can I come over some time and play with Hank?” “Sure, kid,” Douglas said happily. After that day, Jason visited Douglas several times a month, and the old man taught him everything he knew about nature, including fishing and surviving in the woods.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述一位和他的宠物狗汉克一起住在农场里的孤独老人道格拉斯在下大雪的一天,救助了一位小男孩杰森。知道他是迷路的情况之后,考虑到他父母会着急,但是雪又下很大,所以道格拉斯决定一人去找杰森的父母。
