Hidden in the walls of the digestive system, this “brain in your gut (肠道) ” is revolutionizing medicine’s understanding of the links between digestion, mood and health. Scientists call this little brain the enteric nervous system (ENS 肠神经系统). The ENS is two thin layers of more than 100 million nerve cells lining your gut. Unlike the big brain in your head, the ENS can’t calculate or compose a love note. “Its main role is controlling digestion,” explains Jay Pasricha, M.D., director of the Johns Hopkins Center. “The enteric nervous system doesn’t seem capable of thought as we know it, but it communicates back and forth with our big brain.” For decades, researchers and doctors thought that anxiety and depression contributed to gut problems. But Pasricha’s research shows that it can also be the other way around. Our two brains “talk” to each other, so treatments that help one may help the other. In a way, doctors who treat digestive conditions are like advisors looking for ways to comfort the second brain. Psychological approaches also help to improve communications between the big brain and the brain in our gut. Pasricha says the research suggests that digestive-system activity may affect thinking skills and memory, too. “This is an area that needs more research, something we hope to do here at Johns Hopkins,” he says. 24. Why does the author mention “butterflies in your stomach” in paragraph 1? A. To show the power of the ENS. B. To prove the origin of the idiom. C. To explain why you’re very nervous. D. To engage the readers with the topic. 25. What does Pasricha’s research tell us? A. The main role of the ENS has changed. B. Depression contributes to gut problems. C. The ENS affects what happens in the brain. D. Gut problems are different from what they were. 26. What is the benefit of Pasricha’s research? A. It helps to prevent stomach problems. B. It leads to further brain improvement. C. It creates new treatment opportunities. D. It gives a guide for better communication. 27. What do we learn from the last paragraph? A. The research proves quite fruitful. B. There is still more to learn about mind-gut link. C. Digestive-system activity has other bad influence. D. Pasricha is determined to improve people’s memory. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，该研究表明，隐藏在消化系统壁上的“肠道大脑”正在彻底改变医学对消化、情绪和健康之间联系的理解。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“If you’ve ever felt “butterflies in your stomach” when nervous, you’re likely getting signals from an unexpected source: your second brain. Hidden in the walls of the digestive system, this “brain in your gut (肠道) ” is revolutionizing medicine’s understanding of the links between digestion, mood and health.Scientists call this little brain the enteric nervous system(ENS 肠神经系统). (如果你在紧张的时候感到“肚子里七上八下”，你很可能从一个意想不到的来源得到了信号：你的第二大脑。这种隐藏在消化系统壁上的“肠道大脑”正在彻底改变医学对消化、情绪和健康之间联系的理解。科学家称这个小大脑为肠道神经系统。)”可知，作者提到“butterflies in your stomach”的目的是为了向读者引出本文的主题，也就是——隐藏在消化系统壁上的“肠道大脑”正在彻底改变医学对消化、情绪和健康之间联系的理解。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段““Its main role is controlling digestion,” explains Jay Pasricha, M.D., director of the Johns Hopkins Center. “The enteric nervous system doesn’t seem capable of thought as we know it, but it communicates back and forth with our big brain.” For decades, researchers and doctors thought that anxiety and depression contributed to gut problems. But Pasricha’s research shows that it can also be the other way around.( “它的主要作用是控制消化，”约翰霍普金斯中心主任Jay Pasricha医学博士解释说。“肠道神经系统似乎没有我们所知道的思考能力，但它与我们的大脑来回交流。”几十年来，研究人员和医生认为焦虑和抑郁会导致肠道问题。但Pasricha的研究表明，情况也可能相反。)”可知，肠神经系统会影响大脑。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Our two brains “talk” to each other, so treatments that help one may help the other. In a way, doctors who treat digestive conditions are like advisors looking for ways to comfort the second brain. Psychological approaches also help to improve communications between the big brain and the brain in our gut.(我们的两个大脑相互“交谈”，所以对一个大脑有帮助的治疗可能对另一个大脑也有帮助。在某种程度上，治疗消化疾病的医生就像顾问一样，寻找安慰第二大脑的方法。心理学方法也有助于改善大脑和肠道大脑之间的沟通。)”可知，Pasricha的研究为以后的治疗提供了更多的治疗思路。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Pasricha says the research suggests that digestive-system activity may affect thinking skills and memory, too. “This is an area that needs more research, something we hope to do here at Johns Hopkins,” he says.( Pasricha说，研究表明，消化系统的活动也可能影响思维能力和记忆力。“这是一个需要更多研究的领域，我们希望在约翰霍普金斯大学做一些事情，”他说。)”可知，关于消化系统和大脑之间的联系，还有更多需要研究的方面。故选B。 C Cecilia Chiang, named the “mother of Chinese food in American”, a famed restauranteur who helped introduce real Chinese food to America in the 1960s, died on October 28, 2020 at the age of 100. Opened in 1961, Cecilia’ legendary San Francisco restaurant, the Mandarin, was arguably the best Chinese restaurant in the US for over 30 years. She challenged the American idea of Chinese food and transformed their appreciation for authentic Chinese cuisine. Ms Chiang was born in Wuxi in 1920 as the seventh daughter in a wealthy family. After her parents died, Cecilia managed the businesses’ finances while still in her teens. Ms Chiang came to San Francisco in 1959. Once in San Francisco, she met two acquaintances who wanted to open a restaurant. Ms Chiang agreed to put up a huge deposit. But when the two women quit, Ms Chiang found to her horror that the deposit was not refundable. She decided to open the restaurant herself. “I began to think that if I could create a restaurant with Western-style service and the dishes that I was most familiar with-the delicious food of northern China — maybe my little restaurant would succeed,” she wrote in her book. The Mandarin, which was opened in 1961 as a small restaurant, introduced customers to mainly Sichuan, Shanghai and Canton dishes. The early days were especially tough. But little by little, Chinese diners, and a few Americans came regularly. Overnight, the tables filled and became a huge success. Ms Chiang enjoyed many extraordinary honors. In 2013, when she was 93, she received the long overdue Lifetime Achievement Award from the James Beard Awards, known as the ”Culinary Oscars“ at New York’s Lincoln Center. Cecilia considered it her legacy to have redefined what Americans know about Chinese food and culture. In her acceptance speech, Cecilia said, ”This is an incredible honor. James Beard was one of my close personal friends, so this award holds a special place in my heart.“ 28. When did Ms Chiang start to manage the businesses’ finances? A. In the 1920s. B. In the 1930s. C. In the 1950s. D. In the 1960s. 29. Why did Ms Chiang open a restaurant alone? A. She wanted to live a better life. B. She needed to get her deposit back. C. She decided to help her acquaintances. D. She wished to spread Chinese food across America. 30. What can be Ms Chiang’s chief achievement? A. She changed American’s eating habits. B. She won an Oscar award for her restaurant. C. She showed Americans the charm of Chinese food. D. She recorded many recipes for Chinese dishes in her book. 31. Which of the following best describes Ms Chiang? A. Smart but stubborn. B. Adventurous but careless. C. Devoted and brave. D. Enthusiastic and ambitious. 【答案】28. B 29. B 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了“美国中餐之母”——蒋孙芸的一生，以及蒋孙芸为中餐引入美国所做的贡献。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Ms Chiang was born in Wuxi in 1920 as the seventh daughter in a wealthy family. After her parents died, Cecilia managed the businesses’ finances while still in her teens.(蒋女士1920年出生于无锡一个富裕家庭，是家中的第七个女儿。父母去世后，Cecilia在十几岁的时候就开始管理公司的财务。)”可知，蒋女士出生于1920年，十几岁开始管理公司的财务，所以她是在二十世纪三十年代开始管理公司的财务。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Ms Chiang came to San Francisco in 1959. Once in San Francisco, she met two acquaintances who wanted to open a restaurant. Ms Chiang agreed to put up a huge deposit. But when the two women quit, Ms Chiang found to her horror that the deposit was not refundable. She decided to open the restaurant herself. (蒋女士1959年来到旧金山。有一次在旧金山，她遇到了两个想开餐馆的熟人。蒋女士同意支付一大笔定金。但当这两名女子放弃后，蒋女士惊恐地发现，押金是无法退还的。她决定自己开餐馆。)”可知，蒋孙芸为他人支付了定金，但是那两个人放弃后，她发现押金无法退还，所以，她决定自己开餐厅是因为想要拿回押金。故选B。 30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“She challenged the American idea of Chinese food and transformed their appreciation for authentic Chinese cuisine.(她挑战了美国人对中餐的看法，改变了他们对正宗中国菜的欣赏。)”以及最后一段“Cecilia considered it her legacy to have redefined what Americans know about Chinese food and culture.( Cecilia认为，她的遗产是重新定义了美国人对中国食物和文化的认识。)”可推断，她最大的贡献就是向美国人展示了中国食物的魅力。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Ms Chiang came to San Francisco in 1959. Once in San Francisco, she met two acquaintances who wanted to open a restaurant. Ms Chiang agreed to put up a huge deposit. But when the two women quit, Ms Chiang found to her horror that the deposit was not refundable. She decided to open the restaurant herself. “I began to think that if I could create a restaurant with Western-style service and the dishes that I was most familiar with-the delicious food of northern China— maybe my little restaurant would succeed,” she wrote in her book.(蒋女士1959年来到旧金山。有一次在旧金山，她遇到了两个想开餐馆的熟人。蒋女士同意支付一大笔定金。但当这两名女子放弃后，蒋女士惊恐地发现，押金是无法退还的。她决定自己开餐馆。“我开始想，如果我能开一家西式服务的餐厅，用我最熟悉的菜式——中国北方的美味——也许我的小餐馆会成功。”她在书中写道。)”可推断，蒋孙芸为人真诚热情，而且非常有志向。故选D。 D Do you like Chinese traditional painting and dance?

According to CCTV, this poetic dance program was inspired by the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》).

As for the reason, it is due to people’s great love for traditional culture. “The younger generations have grown up with a more open mind.

Hidden in the walls of the digestive system, this “brain in your gut (肠道) ” is revolutionizing medicine’s understanding of the links between digestion, mood and health. Scientists call this little brain the enteric nervous system (ENS 肠神经系统). The ENS is two thin layers of more than 100 million nerve cells lining your gut. Unlike the big brain in your head, the ENS can’t calculate or compose a love note. “Its main role is controlling digestion,” explains Jay Pasricha, M.D., director of the Johns Hopkins Center. “The enteric nervous system doesn’t seem capable of thought as we know it, but it communicates back and forth with our big brain.” For decades, researchers and doctors thought that anxiety and depression contributed to gut problems. But Pasricha’s research shows that it can also be the other way around. Our two brains “talk” to each other, so treatments that help one may help the other. In a way, doctors who treat digestive conditions are like advisors looking for ways to comfort the second brain. Psychological approaches also help to improve communications between the big brain and the brain in our gut. Pasricha says the research suggests that digestive-system activity may affect thinking skills and memory, too. “This is an area that needs more research, something we hope to do here at Johns Hopkins,” he says. 24. Why does the author mention “butterflies in your stomach” in paragraph 1? A. To show the power of the ENS. B. To prove the origin of the idiom. C. To explain why you’re very nervous. D. To engage the readers with the topic. 25. What does Pasricha’s research tell us? A. The main role of the ENS has changed. B Depression contributes to gut problems. C. The ENS affects what happens in the brain. D. Gut problems are different from what they were. 26. What is the benefit of Pasricha’s research? A. It helps to prevent stomach problems. B. It leads to further brain improvement. C It creates new treatment opportunities. D. It gives a guide for better communication. 27. What do we learn from the last paragraph? A. The research proves quite fruitful. B. There is still more to learn about mind-gut link. C. Digestive-system activity has other bad influence. D. Pasricha is determined to improve people’s memory. C Cecilia Chiang, named the “mother of Chinese food in American”, a famed restauranteur who helped introduce real Chinese food to America in the 1960s, died on October 28, 2020 at the age of 100. Opened in 1961, Cecilia’ legendary San Francisco restaurant, the Mandarin, was arguably the best Chinese restaurant in the US for over 30 years. She challenged the American idea of Chinese food and transformed their appreciation for authentic Chinese cuisine. Ms Chiang was born in Wuxi in 1920 as the seventh daughter in a wealthy family. After her parents died, Cecilia managed the businesses’ finances while still in her teens. Ms Chiang came to San Francisco in 1959. Once in San Francisco, she met two acquaintances who wanted to open a restaurant. Ms Chiang agreed to put up a huge deposit. But when the two women quit, Ms Chiang found to her horror that the deposit was not refundable. She decided to open the restaurant herself. “I began to think that if I could create a restaurant with Western-style service and the dishes that I was most familiar with-the delicious food of northern China — maybe my little restaurant would succeed,” she wrote in her book. The Mandarin, which was opened in 1961 as a small restaurant, introduced customers to mainly Sichuan, Shanghai and Canton dishes. The early days were especially tough. But little by little, Chinese diners, and a few Americans came regularly. Overnight, the tables filled and became a huge success. Ms Chiang enjoyed many extraordinary honors. In 2013, when she was 93, she received the long overdue Lifetime Achievement Award from the James Beard Awards, known as the ”Culinary Oscars“ at New York’s Lincoln Center. Cecilia considered it her legacy to have redefined what Americans know about Chinese food and culture. In her acceptance speech, Cecilia said, ”This is an incredible honor. James Beard was one of my close personal friends, so this award holds a special place in my heart.“ 28. When did Ms Chiang start to manage the businesses’ finances? A. In the 1920s. B. In the 1930s. C. In the 1950s. D. In the 1960s. 29. Why did Ms Chiang open a restaurant alone? A. She wanted to live a better life. B. She needed to get her deposit back. C. She decided to help her acquaintances. D. She wished to spread Chinese food across America. 30. What can be Ms Chiang’s chief achievement? A. She changed American’s eating habits. B. She won an Oscar award for her restaurant. C. She showed Americans the charm of Chinese food. D. She recorded many recipes for Chinese dishes in her book. 31. Which of the following best describes Ms Chiang? A. Smart but stubborn. B. Adventurous but careless. C. Devoted and brave. D. Enthusiastic and ambitious. D Do you like Chinese traditional painting and dance? They are two important parts of the traditional Chinese art. But what about when they meet each other? This year a dance drama titled Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was staged on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala and became popular. According to CCTV, this poetic dance program was inspired by the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). Created by Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng at about 18, the painting is amazing in its sweeping size, rich coloration and the expressive details, reported CCTV. It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape: “mountains and groupings of infinite (无限的) rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling (涟漪的) water”. When the dancers moved elegantly, audiences seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers. “It brings me a pure experience of beauty. It is not only a drama but also an exhibition. Vast mountains and rivers are coming to life!” Internet user Mo Weisha wrote in a review. “More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still impress people as they did long ago.” Some people even decided to watch the dance again when it was staged in the theaters later. In fact, in recent years, more and more modern shows feature Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome. As for the reason, it is due to people’s great love for traditional culture. “The younger generations have grown up with a more open mind. They accept Chinese culture and are proud of it.” Yao Wei, director of Henan TV Station’s Innovation Center, told China Daily. 32. What’s the writing purpose of Paragraph 1? A. To show a doubtful attitude. B. To introduce the topic. C. To describe the art world. D. To raise a question. 33. What inspired the poetic dance? A. CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala. B.

Traditional culture is accepted and loved by people. B. Green mountains and rivers greatly impress people. C. The poetic dance can be staged in the theaters later. D. Increasing modern shows feature Chinese traditional culture. 35. What’s the main idea of the whole passage? A. It explains why Chinese art enjoys popularity. B. It shows us art can come to life through dance. C. It highlights the beauty of Chinese traditional art. D. It tells us the passion for Chinese traditional painting. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10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。 Do books unite us?
