Here is some advice that can help you keep your goals. ● Make a detailed (详细的) plan If your New Year’s plan is to exercise five days each week, a plan like “I’ll exercise on weekdays” would be too vague (模糊的).

But if you get fun from your exercise or study, you’ll keep longer. If you can only drink your favourite juice during study hours, you’ll look forward to studying. ● Give yourself more chances You planned to get to bed early every night, but one Friday you stayed up late.

But then suddenly, you fall and hurt yourself. “Ow!” you cry. This sound is very familiar (熟悉的) to us all. Crying out when we get hurt is a natural instinct. But what is it about this sound that makes us shout it out? Scientists from the National University of Singapore now believe they’ve found the answer. The effort of shouting the word “ow” actually prevents pain messages traveling to the brain. So by shouting it out, it takes our attention from the feeling of pain. The scientists tested how long volunteers could hold their hands in very cold water. There were five rounds of the experiment. In the first round, they were allowed to shout “ow” when they felt pain. In another round they had to stay silent. The results showed that volunteers were able to keep their hands in the cold water for longer when they were allowed to shout out. They managed around 30 seconds on average, five seconds more than when they had to remain silent. “We found that a simple vocal act such as saying ‘ow’ helps individuals deal with pain, ” the report from the scientists stated. What’s more, expressions of pain are shared among languages. While cries of “ow” or “ouch” are heard in English, South Africans yell “eina”, Italians shout “ahia” and Chinese “aiyo”. Scientists said in the report: “Shared among these languages is a sound during which the mouth simply opens, the tongue lies flat and the lips unrounded (非圆形的). It is a simple sound that requires little control, while making the best use of the amount of sound. ” So these sounds are useful to shout if we feel pain. 41. What does “a natural instinct” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. An impossible thing. B. A natural reaction. C. A strange behavior. D. An uncomfortable situation. 42. The scientists found that __________. A. shouting makes people happy B. pain messages don’t travel to the brain C. shouting out “ow” reduces the feeling of pain D. people relax themselves by shouting “ow” out loud 43. What do we know about the experiment? A. Volunteers were allowed to shout out in every round. B. Volunteers all shouted the “ow” sound out in the experiment. C. Volunteers felt less pain when they weren't allowed to shout out. D. Volunteers stayed longer in cold water in the first round than in the second. 44. “Ahia” is shouted by __________. A. Italians B. Chinese C. Englishmen D. South Africans 45. What is the text mainly about? A. We should shout every day to stay healthy. B. People shout to better express their feelings. C. Any language is more exciting when we feel pain. D. Shouting out is useful and helpful to set free pain. 【答案】41. B 42. C 43. D 44. A 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一些有助于减缓疼痛的简单声音及它们减缓疼痛的原因。 【41题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Crying out when we get hurt is a natural instinct.”可知，受伤时喊叫是一种自然本能。“a natural instinct”指的是人类对疼痛的自然反应。故选B。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The effort of shouting the word “ow” actually prevents pain messages traveling to the brain. So by shouting it out, it takes our attention from the feeling of pain.”可推知，喊出“ow”能减轻疼痛感。故选C。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据“In the first round, they were allowed to shout “ow” when they felt pain. In another round they had to stay silent.”和第4段“The results showed that volunteers were able to keep their hands in the cold water for longer when they were allowed to shout out.”可知，当被允许喊叫时，志愿者能在冷水中坚持更长时间。由此可推知，第一轮允许喊叫比第二轮坚持时间更长。故选D。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Italians shout ‘ahia’”可知，“Ahia”是意大利人的疼痛表达。故选A。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕“喊叫减轻疼痛”展开，介绍了一些有助于减缓疼痛的简单声音及它们减缓疼痛的原因。故选D。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Every one of us has a chance to try new things. ____46____ The risk is that we will not be satisfied with our choice.

It can be sweet or tastes very good. We may try a new sport and fall down but we get back up and finally experience pleasure, even for a minute. We may see why people love that sport so much.

And we fall in love with it finally.”可知，该句起到转折的作用，引出下文尝试新事物可能带来好的结果。选项A“But it is not so bad to take risks.”符合语境。故选A。 【49题详解】 根据“If we try a new kind of music, we may regret we didn’t find it sooner.”可知，前文提到的音乐与艺术相关。选项E“我们可以看到一种新的艺术，也许会惊讶于它的美。”符合语境。故选E。 【50题详解】 根据“Then you will have chances to get rewards (回报).”可知，该句在文章结尾，应起到总结全文的作用，鼓励人们勇于尝试。选项C“总之，要不断尝试新事物。”符合语境。故选C。 第二卷 (非选择题，共50 分) 注意事项： 1. 必须使用0. 5毫米黑色字迹签字笔在答题卡上题目所指示的答题区域内作答，答在试卷上无效。 2. 第二卷共50分。 第四部分 写作 (共三节，满分50分) 第一节 单词填空 (共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 根据下列句子中所给的汉语或首字母提示，在空白处填入一个单词，使句子通顺，意思正确。 51.

Sometimes she shortchanged (少找零钱) me. Other times she overcharged. Going to the store was like going into battle (战斗) . But by the end of summer, I could ___19___ the one-hour shopping trip in around 15 minutes. On the morning I was to return home, I stopped in to get some gum (口香糖) . “All right, ” she said. “What did you learn this summer? ” “That you’re mean! ” I replied. Miss Bee just laughed. “I know what you think of me, ” she said. “Well, I don’t care! My job is to teach every child I meet life lessons. When you get older you’ll be ___20___ ! ” Glad I met Miss Bee? Ha! The idea was unreasonable.

Here is some advice that can help you keep your goals. ● Make a detailed (详细的) plan If your New Year’s plan is to exercise five days each week, a plan like “I’ll exercise on weekdays” would be too vague (模糊的). A detailed plan like “I’ll exercise at school on weekdays during my lunch break” would be better. ● Get a little help from your friends Tell a few friends about your goals so you’ll feel ashamed if they check back later and find out you haven’t followed through. ● ____________________________ If it’s not fun to exercise or study, you won’t keep it easily. But if you get fun from your exercise or study, you’ll keep longer.

How to Make New Year’s Goals B Keep the “Lanterns” On The Lantern Festival is on Feb. 24 this year. How did you celebrate it? Some of you might go to the Yuyuan Garden Lantern Fair. This year, the Nine-Turn Bridge is lined with lanterns of the dragon and its animal friends. It is crowded with people. Everyone wants to take pictures. Do you know how these colorful lanterns are made? He Weifu has the answer. He is a skilled lantern maker in Shanghai. To make a lantern, He first straightens some iron wires (铁丝) and covers them with colored paper. Then, he uses them to make the skeleton (骨架) for an animal lantern. This, according to He, is the most difficult step. He often spends a long time studying the animal. After making the skeleton, He puts paste (浆糊) on silk cloth to stiffen (使变得硬挺) it. The last step is to glue the cloth on the skeleton and draw patterns (图案) . He’s family has been making lanterns for 100 years. His grandfather, He Keming, was the “King of Lanterns” in the Jiangnan area. He started making lanterns at the age of 13. One day, he went to see a Lantern Festival show. A dragon lantern caught the boy’s eyes. He looked at it carefully and tried to make one for himself. He practiced this craft all his life. His lanterns were very popular. Some of them were given as national gifts to visitors from other countries. Which lantern at this year’s Yuyuan Garden Lantern Fair do you like the best? While you look at it, try to learn more about the craft of lantern making. Think about how you can help to keep this cultural heritage (文化遗产) alive. 36. What is He Weifu good at according to the text? A Making lanterns. B. Taking pictures. C. Drawing animals. 37. According to He, what is the most difficult step in making a lantern? A. Drawing patterns. B. Making the skeleton. C. Straightening the iron wires. 38. How does He Weifu stiffen the silk cloth for his lanterns? A. By painting it. B. By putting paste on it. C. By covering it with paper. 39. According to the article, what was the relationship between He Keming and He Weifu? A. Workmates. B. Father and son. C. Grandfather and grandson. 40. When did He Keming start making lanterns? A. After seeing a dragon lantern. B. After taking a lantern making class. C. After meeting a famous lantern maker. C You are running around in the park. But then suddenly, you fall and hurt yourself. “Ow!” you cry. This sound is very familiar (熟悉的) to us all. Crying out when we get hurt is a natural instinct. But what is it about this sound that makes us shout it out? Scientists from the National University of Singapore now believe they’ve found the answer. The effort of shouting the word “ow” actually prevents pain messages traveling to the brain. So by shouting it out, it takes our attention from the feeling of pain. The scientists tested how long volunteers could hold their hands in very cold water. There were five rounds of the experiment. In the first round, they were allowed to shout “ow” when they felt pain. In another round they had to stay silent. The results showed that volunteers were able to keep their hands in the cold water for longer when they were allowed to shout out. They managed around 30 seconds on average, five seconds more than when they had to remain silent. “We found that a simple vocal act such as saying ‘ow’ helps individuals deal with pain, ” the report from the scientists stated.
