If you are looking for some peace on your vacation, we have some recommendations for you in the Caucasus (高加索). Lake Sevan Lake Sevan is located in the central part of Armenia, in the Gegharkunik province. It is the largest lake in Armenia, 6,200ft above sea level. Along the lake shore, there are various accommodations such as resorts and hotels with plenty of activities to take part in such as windsurfing, swimming and sunbathing. While there, do not forget to visit one of the famous cultural sites with remarkable history, the Sevanavank Monastery, and it offers a great view of the lake as well. Paravani Lake Paravani Lake, 6,801ft above sea level, is in the south of Georgia, near the Javakheti Plateau. At this level, altitude sickness can appear and it is a good idea to be prepared to adapt to it properly, or bring medicine for altitude sickness. Being a volcanic lake makes for a more interesting experience. The lake is best known for fishing. Do not come here during the winter months when the lake freezes. Lake Cildir Lake Cildir is in the Ardahan province, east Turkey, near the borders of Georgia and Armenia. It is a large freshwater lake of eastern Turkey, and many tourists don’t notice this beautiful attraction. Lake Cildir is surrounded by mountains of the Caucasus. The lake freezes during late November. If the winter is not extremely cold, you can try some lake activities like ice skating and ice fishing. Lake Van Lake Van is the must visit of all lakes in this list, the largest lake in Turkey. Lake Van is on the eastern shore of Turkey and is also the most accessible lake there. It’s 5,380ft above sea level, and unique to many lakes around the world: the water is high in salt content. 1. If you want to visit some historic sites during your travel by a lake, you can go to________. A. Lake Cildir B. Paravani Lake C. Lake Sevan D. Lake Van 2.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要向读者推荐了高加索地区几个旅游湖泊。 1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Lake Sevan部分中的“While there, do not forget to visit one of the famous cultural monuments, the Sevanavank Monastery, and it offers a great view of the lake as well.(在那里，不要忘了参观著名的文化古迹之一，塞瓦纳万克修道院，它还可以看到湖的美景)”可知，那里有一个著名的文化古迹the Sevanavank Monastery修道院，游客可以去参观。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Lake Paravani部分中的“Lake Paravani, located at 6,801ft above sea level, is in the south of Georgia, near the Javakheti plateau. At this level, altitude sickness can occur and it is a good idea to be prepared to adapt to it properly, or bring medication for altitude sickness.(帕拉瓦尼湖海拔6.801英尺，位于格鲁吉亚南部，靠近爪哇凯蒂高原。在这种情况下，可能会发生高原反应，最好做好准备适当地适应它，或者带上治疗高原病的药物)”可知，在Lake Paravani游玩的时候，要注意高原反应。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Lake Van部分中的“It's situated at 5, 380 ft above sea level, and unique to lakes around the world, the water is high in salt content.(它位于海拔5380英尺的地方，是世界上独一无二的湖泊，它的含盐量很高)”可知，Lake Van这个湖泊以含盐量特别高而出名。故选A。 B Fear started taking over. I was walking into my first school in Peru. I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been here for three years, hoping Peru would help my future. My father decided that I would be better off going to school here, so I enrolled(登记)in the local high school in my new town. I was afraid how I would do. On the first day, I went to my second period class after I had missed my first. With anxiety, I reached for the door, opening it slowly: Without paying attention to my classmates, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a sol voice he answered. “Yes.” His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India wo had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector. In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology we had. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke. It was noon. I was very confused about when I would have lunch. I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the regular process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. She said, “It’s still fourth period.” “But the bell just rang,” I said. Changing from a gentle tone to a harsher(刺耳的)one, she said, “That is the lunch bell, young man.” I apologized. Without another word 1 headed for the cafeteria. I felt lucky because we didn’t have this in India. Every confusion seemed like a barrier I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either. I spotted my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn`t so bad. 4.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者在秘鲁上高中第一天的情况。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been here for three years, hoping Peru would help my future. My father decided that I would be better off going to school here, so I enrolled(登记)in the local high school in my new town.(我从印度远道而来就是为了和我的父母团聚，他们已经在这里生活了三年，希望秘鲁能帮助我的未来。我父亲认为我在这里上学更好，所以我在我的新城镇上了当地的高中)”可知，作者就读于秘鲁的一所高中，原因是他的家人希望他有一个光明的未来。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India wo had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector. In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology we had. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke. (他给了我一张叫做课程要求的表格，我在印度永远都拿不到，因为我们没有那样的东西。然后他让我选择我要坐的地方。其实我并不想选座位。在印度，我们的座位是固定的，所以我从来不用担心。剩下的时间我都在用投影仪拍摄的图像做笔记。在印度的学校里，我们不用现有的技术。老师讲课时，我们不得不做笔记)”和最后一段“Without another word 1 headed for the cafeteria. I felt lucky because we didn’t have this in India. Every confusion seemed like a barrier I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either.(一句话也没说，我就朝自助餐厅走去。我觉得自己很幸运，因为我们在印度没有这种东西。每一个困惑似乎都是我为了达到目标而必须克服的障碍。在一天结束的时候，我在去坐公共汽车的路上，这在印度也是没有的)”可知，在作者上学的第一天，他经历了在印度学校许多方面的差异。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“spotted my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn`t so bad. (我发现了我的公共汽车，高兴地坐在里面。我在想，今天还不错)”可推断，在一天结束的时候，作者感觉到很欣慰。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“On the first day, I went to my second period class after I had missed my first. (第一天，在我错过了第一节课之后，我去上了第二节课)”和最后一段“At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either.(在一天结束的时候，我在去坐公共汽车的路上，这在印度也是没有的)”及全文可知，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者在秘鲁上高中第一天的情况。所以“My First Day of School(我上学的第一天)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。 C Competitive video gaming, known as e-sports, should be included in the Olympic Games, the creator of World of Warcraft has told the BBC. Rob Pardo, who until July, 2014 was chief creative officer at Blizzard Entertainment, a famous game company, said that “sport” now had a broad definition. “Video games are well positioned to be a spectator sport (观赏性体育运动).“ he told Afternoon Edition on BBC S Live. Professional e-sports events currently attract audiences of millions. A recent major final held in Seoul, South Korea, filled a stadium of 40,000 people, with many more watching online around the world. ”There’s a very good argument for e-sports being in the Olympics,“ said Mr. Pardo, who was also lead designer on Starcraft: Brood War, a game often credited with promoting the e-sports phenomenon. ”I think the way that you look at e-sports is that it is a very competitive skill and you look at these professional gamers and the reflexes are lightning quick and they’re having to make very quick decisions on the fly. “When you look at their ‘actions per minute’, they’re clearing over 300.” However, he admitted that video gaming faced a cultural battle to win over those who followed more physical sports. “That starts getting into how you define sport,” he said. “If you want to define sport as something that takes a lot of physical exertion (用力气), then it’s hard to argue that video games should be a sport, but at the same time, when I’m looking at things that are already in the Olympics, I start questioning the definition.” Having new sports admitted into the Olympic is a long-winded process and, since the International Olympic Committee (IOC) limited the number of sports allowed in the Games, has become increasingly difficult. Even if e-sports were to be recognized as an Olympic sport, that doesn’t mean they would be included in the Games — it merely means a case can be presented to the IOC. 8. Which of the following is TRUE about Rob Pardo? A. He works for BBC now. B. He held the e-sports final in Seoul. C. He was in charge of the game Starcraft: Brood War. D. He is the chief creative officer at Blizzard Entertainment now. 9. What does the underlined word “reflexes” mean in paragraph 5? A. reaction B. challenge C. creation D. ability 10. The professional e-sports gamers’ ability to respond is thought to be ________. A. very slow B. very quick C. as quick as ordinary people D. as quick as other sports players 11. Where does this text probably come from? A. A travel brochure. B. An advertisement. C. A textbook. D. A news report. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了《魔兽世界》游戏的发明者认为电竞游戏应该被纳入奥运会比赛项目中并就此说明了原因。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“There’s a very good argument for e-sports being in the Olympics,“ said Mr Pardo, who was also lead designer on Starcraft: Brood War, a game often credited with promoting the e-sports phenomenon.( Pardo先生说: “电子竞技参加奥运会是有充分理由的。”Pardo 先生同时也是《星际争霸：孵化战争》（Starcraft: Brood War）的首席设计师，这款游戏经常被认为促进了电子竞技现象的发展。 )”可知，Rob Pardo曾经负责游戏《星际争霸: 孵化战争》，故选C。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子“the reflexes are lightning quick and they’re having to make very quick decisions on the fly.(the reflexes速度快如闪电，他们不得不以飞行的速度做出非常快的决定)”可知，职业玩家做出非常快的决定，这说明他们的反应很快，快如闪电，下文“‘actions per minute’”也是提示，由此可知，划线单词意为“reaction(反应)”，故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“you look at these professional gamers and the reflexes are lightning quick and they’re having to make very quick decisions on the fly.(你看看这些职业玩家，他们的反应速度快如闪电，他们不得不在飞行中做出非常快的决定。)”可知，专业电子竞技玩家的反应能力是被认为很快的，故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Competitive video gaming, known as e-sports, should be included in the Olympic Games, the creator of World of Warcraft has told the BBC.(魔兽世界的发明者告诉英国广播公司，被称为电子竞技的竞技视频游戏应该被纳入奥运会比赛项目。)”可知，文章主要报道了《魔兽世界》游戏的发明者认为电竞游戏应该被纳入奥运会比赛项目中并就此说明了原因。由此可推知，文章可能选自一篇新闻报道，故选D。 D Some students get so nervous before a test. They do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock, a professor at the University of Chicago in Illinois, has studied these highly anxious test-takers. The students start worrying about the results. And when we worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources (资源). Professor Beilock and another researcher Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test. The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students. They gave them two short maths tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test. Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored (得分) an average of 12% worse on the second test. But the students who had written about their fears improved (提高) their performance by an average of 5%. Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated (不相关的) to the test. Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B-for those who did not. “What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, and who’d done our writing intervention (干预), all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and grades. They were performing just as well as their classmates who don’t normally get nervous in these tests.” But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam? Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and still improve their performance. 12. What do the students start worrying about before an exam? A. Whether they can pass the exams. B. What other students do during the test. C. Whether they have remembered the materials. D. What kind of problems they will meet on the test paper. 13. What is the solution developed by researchers? A. Making the students focused on the test. B. Asking the students to sit quietly before the test. C. Having the students write about their worries about the test. D. Asking the students to direct the attention away from the test. 14. According to Professor Beilock, those who thought about things unrelated to the test ____________. A. became less nervous before the test B were better at controlling their feelings C. did worse than those who wrote about their feelings D. did better than those who wrote about their feelings 15. We can infer from the last paragraph that ____________. A. writing about our worries before an exam can work a bit B. we can only write about our worries right before an exam C. the best place to write about our worries is in the test room D. it doesn’t matter where we write about our worries before an exam 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了Beilock教授和另一位研究员Gerardo Ramirez发明了一种能帮助学生在考前缓解焦虑的方法——在考试前学生写下自己的担心。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The students start worrying about the results. (学生们开始担心考试结果)”可知，考试前学生们开始担心他们的考试结果，即他们能否通过考试。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Professor Beilock and another researcher Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test. (Beilock教授和另一位研究员Gerardo Ramirez已经开发出一种可能的解决方案。就在考试前，高度焦虑的考生会花10分钟写下他们对考试的担忧)”可知，研究人员发明的解决方案是让学生写下他们对考试的担忧。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated (不相关的) to the test. Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B-for those who did not. (接下来，研究人员在生物课上选用了年龄较小的学生。他们在期末考试之前告诉他们要么写下自己的感受，要么想一些与考试无关的事情。Beilock教授说写出自己焦虑的学生得到了B+的平均分，而没写的学生得到了B-的平均分)”可知，根据Beilock教授的研究，相比于写下自己感受的学生，那些思考与考试无关事情的学生表现更差。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam? Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and still improve their performance. (但如果学生没有机会在考试前立即写下他们的担忧呢？Beilock教授说，学生可以在家里或图书馆自己尝试这样做，仍然可以提高他们的成绩。)”可推知，Beilock教授认为，学生可以在考试前任何地点写下他们的担忧，以此来提高成绩。即考试前写下担忧的地点并不重要。故选D。 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。 Everyone, from homeless people to billionaires, is likely to be influenced by stress.

Watch a Funny Video Here is a simple and practical tip: watch a funny video on You Tube, Research shows that seeing something amusing activates the part of the brain that produces calm physiological (生理的) responses.

And that is much like sleep. For fish brains to relax, eyelids may not ____39____(need). Some fish lie near the bottom or top of the sea or lake at night.

Reaching this goal is not as difficult as it seems. The following suggestions can be helpful to you. Firstly, taking care of our health is of great importance. As far as I am concerned, without a strong and healthy body, we can accomplish nothing. Therefore, usually sparing some time to do sports is necessary. Besides, it’s also important to hold a positive attitude when we are facing problems or disappointment. If we can look on the bright side of everything, we will feel more relaxed. Last but not least, in order to ensure a high-quality life, we should work as hard as we can to gain enough knowledge and skills.

I lived on that phone all summer. I always texted my friends, even at night. And I paid no attention to the people and things around myself. Being connected to the Internet was more important than being present. So you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for our family vacation that year. It was not the Disneyland trip or beach vacation that I had been hoping for.“This year,” my dad said, “we’ll be doing something special, something I used to do with my dad when I was a kid. We’re going camping in the forest!” His excitement was met with a disappointed sigh (失望的叹息),which was my communication style at that age. But he had made the decision and would not change his mind. I comforted myself by telling myself that it was still a vacation. I remained uninfluenced when they were busy preparing for the vacation. My mind was on my phone, the texts flying back and forth. I focused on the screen in my hands so much that the first time I looked up was when we drove across a bridge on the trip to our campsite. I looked out of the window and saw a fast-moving river. The air blowing into the car from the open windows was hot and smelt of trees. But that didn't matter to me. The reason why I had looked up was for something far more serious and annoying. My phone no longer had service. The signal was weak. During the last hour of the drive, there was no signal at all. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 My dad explained he had chosen a campsite that had no phone service. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, without checking my phone as usual, I fixed my mind on nature around myself. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】My dad explained he had chosen a campsite that had no phone service. I realized my phone would be useless until we returned home. I would be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to connect myself with the outside world. I went from an unhappy state to anger. However, that couldn’t make my phone receive the signal. I went to bed angrily that first night. But when I awoke in the morning, something had changed. The next morning, without checking my phone as usual, I fixed my mind on nature around myself. My dad and I hiked through the forest, enjoying nature. We went fishing and swimming. I listened to stories of Dad's life. When the vacation came to an end, I realized I hadn't thought of my phone once. It dawned on me that I needed to value the moments with nature and the important persons in life. With this lesson carried to this day, I regularly pack up the tent and drive until my phone shows words: “No service.” 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在上高中之前收到了父母送的礼物——一部手机，从此便沉溺于网络世界。这一年的假期父亲决定去森林里野营，这让作者有点失望。最让作者难以接受的是，随着车子逐渐接近目的地，他爱不释手的手机没有了信号。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我的父亲解释说他专门选了一个没有信号的野营地”可知，第一段可描写作者对于如此安排的反应，联系下文，还可以描写野营第一天的情况。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，没有再像以往一样查看手机，身边的大自然洗涤了我的思想”可知，第二段可描写作者逐渐适应了没有手机的感觉，与大自然亲密接触，以及这次野营带给作者的变化。 2.续写线索：不适应——郁闷——第一天结束——逐渐适应——感受大自然——变化和感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/find out/it dawns on sb. that ②.联系/交流：connect with/communicate with ③.考虑/想到：think of/think about/alight on 情绪类 ①.生气：be angry with/be mad at ②.惬意：feel comfortable/do everything comfortably 【点睛】[高分句型1]. With this lesson carried to this day, I regularly pack up the tent and drive until my phone shows words: “No service.”（运用了with的复合结构） [高分句型2]. When the vacation came to an end, I realized I hadn't thought of my phone once.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句和省略that的宾语从句） 听力1-5 BBCAB 6-10 CBACC 11-15 BACAA 16-20 CACBC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 北外东坡高2022级2022-2023学年度下期入学考试 英语试题 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。第Ⅰ卷（选择题）1 至 3 页，第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 4 页，共 4页；满分 150 分，考试时间 120 分钟。 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必在答题卡上相应的位置准确填写自己的姓名、准考证号，并将条形码粘贴在指定的位置。 2. 选择题选出答案后，用2B铅笔将答题卡上对应的题目答案标号按要求涂黑，如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选择其它答案标号。非选择题直接用签字笔答在答题卡中对应答题区域内。 第I卷（选择题 共95分） 第一部分： 听力（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分 30 分） 第一节 (共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

If you are looking for some peace on your vacation, we have some recommendations for you in the Caucasus (高加索). Lake Sevan Lake Sevan is located in the central part of Armenia, in the Gegharkunik province. It is the largest lake in Armenia, 6,200ft above sea level. Along the lake shore, there are various accommodations such as resorts and hotels with plenty of activities to take part in such as windsurfing, swimming and sunbathing. While there, do not forget to visit one of the famous cultural sites with remarkable history, the Sevanavank Monastery, and it offers a great view of the lake as well. Paravani Lake Paravani Lake, 6,801ft above sea level, is in the south of Georgia, near the Javakheti Plateau. At this level, altitude sickness can appear and it is a good idea to be prepared to adapt to it properly, or bring medicine for altitude sickness. Being a volcanic lake makes for a more interesting experience. The lake is best known for fishing. Do not come here during the winter months when the lake freezes. Lake Cildir Lake Cildir is in the Ardahan province, east Turkey, near the borders of Georgia and Armenia. It is a large freshwater lake of eastern Turkey, and many tourists don’t notice this beautiful attraction. Lake Cildir is surrounded by mountains of the Caucasus. The lake freezes during late November. If the winter is not extremely cold, you can try some lake activities like ice skating and ice fishing. Lake Van Lake Van is the must visit of all lakes in this list, the largest lake in Turkey. Lake Van is on the eastern shore of Turkey and is also the most accessible lake there. It’s 5,380ft above sea level, and unique to many lakes around the world: the water is high in salt content. 1. If you want to visit some historic sites during your travel by a lake, you can go to________. A. Lake Cildir B. Paravani Lake C. Lake Sevan D. Lake Van 2. What challenge are travelers most likely to face while visiting Paravani Lake? A. Lack of medicine. B. Altitude sickness. C. Volcano eruptions. D. Low temperature all the year. 3. What is special about Lake Van? A. Its water is high in salt. B. It is a volcanic lake. C. It is globally the largest lake. D. It is surrounded by mountains. B Fear started taking over. I was walking into my first school in Peru. I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been here for three years, hoping Peru would help my future. My father decided that I would be better off going to school here, so I enrolled(登记)in the local high school in my new town. I was afraid how I would do. On the first day, I went to my second period class after I had missed my first. With anxiety, I reached for the door, opening it slowly: Without paying attention to my classmates, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a sol voice he answered. “Yes.” His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India wo had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector. In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology we had. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke. It was noon. I was very confused about when I would have lunch. I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the regular process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. She said, “It’s still fourth period.” “But the bell just rang,” I said. Changing from a gentle tone to a harsher(刺耳的)one, she said, “That is the lunch bell, young man.” I apologized. Without another word 1 headed for the cafeteria. I felt lucky because we didn’t have this in India. Every confusion seemed like a barrier I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either. I spotted my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn`t so bad. 4. The author attended a Peru’s high school because________.

My Work at School C Competitive video gaming, known as e-sports, should be included in the Olympic Games, the creator of World of Warcraft has told the BBC. Rob Pardo, who until July, 2014 was chief creative officer at Blizzard Entertainment, a famous game company, said that “sport” now had a broad definition. “Video games are well positioned to be a spectator sport (观赏性体育运动).“ he told Afternoon Edition on BBC S Live. Professional e-sports events currently attract audiences of millions. A recent major final held in Seoul, South Korea, filled a stadium of 40,000 people, with many more watching online around the world. ”There’s a very good argument for e-sports being in the Olympics,“ said Mr. Pardo, who was also lead designer on Starcraft: Brood War, a game often credited with promoting the e-sports phenomenon. ”I think the way that you look at e-sports is that it is a very competitive skill and you look at these professional gamers and the reflexes are lightning quick and they’re having to make very quick decisions on the fly. “When you look at their ‘actions per minute’, they’re clearing over 300.” However, he admitted that video gaming faced a cultural battle to win over those who followed more physical sports. “That starts getting into how you define sport,” he said. “If you want to define sport as something that takes a lot of physical exertion (用力气), then it’s hard to argue that video games should be a sport, but at the same time, when I’m looking at things that are already in the Olympics, I start questioning the definition.” Having new sports admitted into the Olympic is a long-winded process and, since the International Olympic Committee (IOC) limited the number of sports allowed in the Games, has become increasingly difficult. Even if e-sports were to be recognized as an Olympic sport, that doesn’t mean they would be included in the Games — it merely means a case can be presented to the IOC. 8. Which of the following is TRUE about Rob Pardo? A. He works for BBC now. B. He held the e-sports final in Seoul. C. He was in charge of the game Starcraft: Brood War. D. He is the chief creative officer at Blizzard Entertainment now. 9. What does the underlined word “reflexes” mean in paragraph 5? A. reaction B. challenge C. creation D. ability 10. The professional e-sports gamers’ ability to respond is thought to be ________. A. very slow B. very quick C. as quick as ordinary people D. as quick as other sports players 11. Where does this text probably come from? A. A travel brochure. B. An advertisement. C. A textbook. D. A news report. D Some students get so nervous before a test. They do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock, a professor at the University of Chicago in Illinois, has studied these highly anxious test-takers. The students start worrying about the results. And when we worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources (资源). Professor Beilock and another researcher Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test. The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students. They gave them two short maths tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test. Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored (得分) an average of 12% worse on the second test. But the students who had written about their fears improved (提高) their performance by an average of 5%. Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated (不相关的) to the test. Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B-for those who did not. “What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, and who’d done our writing intervention (干预), all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and grades. They were performing just as well as their classmates who don’t normally get nervous in these tests.” But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam? Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and still improve their performance. 12. What do the students start worrying about before an exam? A. Whether they can pass the exams. B. What other students do during the test. C. Whether they have remembered the materials. D. What kind of problems they will meet on the test paper. 13. What is the solution developed by researchers? A. Making the students focused on the test. B. Asking the students to sit quietly before the test. C. Having the students write about their worries about the test. D. Asking the students to direct the attention away from the test. 14. According to Professor Beilock, those who thought about things unrelated to the test ____________.

I lived on that phone all summer. I always texted my friends, even at night. And I paid no attention to the people and things around myself. Being connected to the Internet was more important than being present. So, you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for our family vacation that year. It was not the Disneyland trip or beach vacation that I had been hoping for.“This year,” my dad said, “we’ll be doing something special, something I used to do with my dad when I was a kid. We’re going camping in the forest!” His excitement was met with a disappointed sigh (失望的叹息),which was my communication style at that age. But he had made the decision and would not change his mind. I comforted myself by telling myself that it was still a vacation. I remained uninfluenced when they were busy preparing for the vacation. My mind was on my phone the texts flying back and forth. I focused on the screen in my hands so much that the first time I looked up was when we drove across a bridge on the trip to our campsite. I looked out of the window and saw a fast-moving river. The air blowing into the car from the open windows was hot and smelt of trees. But that didn't matter to me. The reason why I had looked up was for something far more serious and annoying. My phone no longer had service. The signal was weak. During the last hour of the drive, there was no signal at all. 注意： 1. 续写词数应150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 My dad explained he had chosen a campsite that had no phone service. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, without checking my phone as usual, I fixed my mind on nature around myself. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 BBCAB 6-10 CBACC 11-15 BACAA 16-20 CACBC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
