For Alison Jensen, 15, this used to happen several times a week. Alison was a shopaholic (购物狂). She just couldn’t stop shopping and she loved special offers. Alison’s bedroom is full of stuff. “I’ve been to every shop in Birmingham, I think,” says Alison. She picks up some earrings. The labels are still on them. “These were half price,” she says. “I’ve never worn them.” Alison’s problem wasn’t just jewellery. She also bought a lot of clothes, though not many shoes, because they were usually too expensive. She has also bought lots of other small things—like 20 new covers for her phone. She hasn’t used any of them. According to experts, we all feel excited after we buy something new. For shopaholics, it’s a little different. Soon after they buy something, they think they’ve made a mistake and start to feel unhappy. So they buy themselves something else to feel happier. Psychologists (心理学家) first described the problems of shopaholics in 1915. However, there was very little research on the subject until recently. Now, doctors think thousands of people suffer from the problem, and the situation is getting worse. There are also more teenage shopaholics now, although most young people don’t have enough money to go shopping very regularly. Alison knew she had a problem. “I often bought something every day. Usually it was something small, but I just needed to buy it,” she says. “I spent money that I got for my birthday, and when I was short of cash, I borrowed money from friends or my parents. When I couldn’t go shopping, I felt anxious. Then one day, my parents just looked at all the stuff in my room and said, ‘This is crazy!’ I knew they were right. I needed some big changes in my life.” Alison now gets help with her problem and feels she has changed. She no longer thinks she’s a shopaholic. “When I want to buy something in a shop, I ask myself two questions,” she says, “Do I need it? Can I afford it? The answer to both questions is usually ‘no’, so I walk away. It’s great!” 31. What do experts say about shopaholics? A. Shopaholics feel sad when they are shopping. B. Shopaholics soon feel unhappy after they have bought something. C. Shopaholics feel more excited than other people when they shop. D. Shopping is the only way shopaholics can feel happy. 32. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refers to ________. A. psychologists B. doctors C. Alison’s parents D. Alison’s friends 33. Which word can best describe Alison’s feeling at the end of the passage? A. Glad. B. Worried. C. Embarrassed. D. Moved. 34. The best title for the passage above might be ________. A. Shop Till You Drop! B. Shopping Makes Me Happy! C. You’d Better Shop Less! D. I Can Stop Shopping Now! 35. What is the author’s attitude towards shopaholics? A. Supportive. B. Disapproving. C. Indifferent. D. Respectful. 【答案】31. B 32. C 33. A 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以Alison为例向我们介绍了“购物狂”的问题，现在她的情况已经好转很多。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For shopaholics, it’s a little different. Soon after they buy something, they think they’ve made a mistake and start to feel unhappy.”可知，购物狂买了东西后很快会感到不高兴。故选B。 【32题详解】 代词指代题。根据“Then one day, my parents just looked at all the stuff in my room and said, ‘This is crazy!’ I knew they were right.”可知，有一天，我父母看着我房间里的东西说，这太疯狂了，我知道他们是对的。所以此处they指的是“父母”，故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It’s great!”可知，Alison现在感觉很好，故选A。 34题详解】 最佳标题题。本文以Alison为例向我们介绍了“购物狂”的问题，现在她的情况已经好转很多。选项D“我现在可以停止购物了”符合主题，故选D。 【35题详解】 观点态度题。文中通过描述购物狂的负面影响（如焦虑、浪费金钱）和专家观点，暗示作者对这一行为的不赞同，故选B。 （C） Many kids say they don’t like the taste of brassicas (芥属植物) — a group of vegetables that includes broccoli and cabbage. Now scientists think that there could be a good reason for those so-called “picky” eating habits of kids that drive mothers crazy. When chemicals in brassicas mix with some people’s saliva (唾液), they give out bad-smelling smells in the mouth. The study found that the more bad-smelling smells a child’s mouth produces, the more they dislike the food. But why do some people’s mouths make more of these smells than other people’s mouths? To find out, the team collected saliva samples from 98 pairs of parents and children. Every person’s saliva has a microbiome (菌群) in it. The researchers believe this determines how much of the gases are given out when a person eats the vegetables. Maybe our picky eaters are simply those who have the microbiome that increases smell of chemicals. The team mixed samples of the adults’ and children’s saliva with powdered (研成粉的) broccoli. They found that people who were related to each other produced almost the same amounts of the smelly chemicals. Though parents and their children tended to produce similar levels, the parents didn’t mind the taste of brassicas as much as their kids did. The adults may have gotten used to it over time. Experts suggest many food dislikes can be overcome with repeated exposure. This means a picky eater may come to enjoy food they avoid if they try it enough times. Say your child hates cabbage — if you offer them cabbage enough times, in different forms, they may come to enjoy it in the end. What’s more, children learn by observation. If they see you eating a balanced mix of healthy foods, they’ll be more likely to follow. However, watching you eating lots of soda, snack foods, and dessert will make them wonder why they can’t do the same. 36. What leads to kids’ dislike for broccoli according to the text? A. The unhealthy eating habits. B. Mother’s bad cooking. C. Unpleasant smells in mouths. D. Broccoli’s bad smell. 37. What can we learn about “microbiomes” according to Paragraph 3? A. They are everywhere. B. They mostly smell bad. C. Saliva produces them. D. They cause smells. 38. What did the team find in Paragraph 4? A. Kids will accept brassicas sooner or later. B. Powdered food is healthier for children. C. Parents have similar smells in mouths as kids. D. Adults don’t feel the bad tastes of brassicas. 39. How can a mother help kids enjoy brassicas according to the experts? A. By keeping a good diet herself. B. By hiding all unhealthy food. C. By pushing kids to eat more. D. By feeding kids with cabbage. 40. Where is the passage probably taken from? A. A story book. B. A science magazine. C. A documentary. D. An advertisement. 【答案】36. C 37. D 38. C 39. A 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了孩子们会挑食的原因。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The study found that the more bad smelling smells a child’s mouth produces, the more they dislike the food.”可知孩子嘴里产生的臭味越多，他们就越不喜欢这种食物。故选C。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Every person’s saliva has a microbiome (菌群) in it. The researchers believe this determines how much of the gases are given out when a person eats the vegetables.”可知每个人的唾液中都有一个菌群，它决定了一个人吃蔬菜时释放出多少气体。故选D。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They found that people who were related to each other produced almost the same amounts of the smelly chemicals. Though parents and their children tended to produce similar levels”可知彼此有亲缘关系的人产生的气味化学物质数量几乎相同，父母嘴里的气味和孩子相似。故选C。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据“If they see you eating a balanced mix of healthy foods, they’ll be more likely to follow”可知如果他们看到你吃的是均衡的健康食物，他们会更有可能遵循，所以一个妈妈可以通过自己保持良好的饮食来帮助孩子们享受芥属植物。故选A。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。本文主要介绍了孩子们会挑食的原因，故文章来自一本科学杂志。故选B。 （D） People today are familiar with words, such as “going eco-friendly” and “sustainable (可持续) lifestyle”. Many people join “The Green Movement” and take nature-friendly lifestyles. However, there’s still a group of people who believe that going eco-friendly is only a short-term fashion and it isn’t going to last long. Many environmental organizations can prove that going eco-friendly is not only a fashion that lasts for a few months but a trend. These organizations pay close attention to different green causes and hold activities to increase people’s awareness on environmental problems. The use of sustainable products like bamboo straws and electric cars is another evidence to show going eco-friendly isn’t a show. The customers are willing to buy such products, and more and more companies invest money in the production. Starbucks gives their customers discounts if they bring their own bottles for drinks. The efforts that are made by companies and customers show a change in the attitudes of people towards taking a sustainable lifestyle. Meanwhile, some other people hold the view that people who take eco-friendly methods just want to improve their own image. They won’t keep the lifestyle for a long time. For example, some people post videos on the Internet and pretend they live in a zero-waste life. However, going eco-friendly isn’t a kind of fashion or a way to get others’ attention. For those who follow their zero-waste lifestyles over years, it’s about a promise that can only come with a true change in attitudes towards caring for the earth. What’s worse, some customers go eco-friendly only because they think popular. Today buying recycled clothes is highly encouraged. It’s common to walk past the shops that claim to sell clothing made from recycled materials. However, many companies use only a small number of recycled materials, as low as 1%, to make their “eco-friendly” clothes. A lot of customers are cheated by the advertisements of such big companies. All of these suggest that going eco-friendly is all about looking the part, and nothing more. The call to save the earth seems to remain for a while. It’s hoped that all the efforts for environmental protection will go a long way so that our future generations can have a better living environment. 41. What can people do to have a sustainable lifestyle? A. Change the attitude towards the fast food. B. Collect evidence about going eco-friendly. C. Take their own bottles when they buy drinks. D. Record daily lives and post videos on the Internet. 42. What does the underlined word invest mean in Paragraph3? A. 筹集 B. 投资 C. 赋予 D. 获取 43. What does the writer mean by the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5? A. Customers need to learn more ways of going eco-friendly. B. People have to change the attitudes towards recycled clothes. C. Some people don’t take going eco-friendly as a long-term lifestyle. D. More activities should be held by big companies to save the world. 44.

For Alison Jensen, 15, this used to happen several times a week. Alison was a shopaholic (购物狂). She just couldn’t stop shopping and she loved special offers. Alison’s bedroom is full of stuff. “I’ve been to every shop in Birmingham, I think,” says Alison. She picks up some earrings. The labels are still on them. “These were half price,” she says. “I’ve never worn them.” Alison’s problem wasn’t just jewellery. She also bought a lot of clothes, though not many shoes, because they were usually too expensive. She has also bought lots of other small things—like 20 new covers for her phone. She hasn’t used any of them. According to experts, we all feel excited after we buy something new. For shopaholics, it’s a little different. Soon after they buy something, they think they’ve made a mistake and start to feel unhappy. So they buy themselves something else to feel happier. Psychologists (心理学家) first described the problems of shopaholics in 1915. However, there was very little research on the subject until recently. Now, doctors think thousands of people suffer from the problem, and the situation is getting worse. There are also more teenage shopaholics now, although most young people don’t have enough money to go shopping very regularly. Alison knew she had a problem. “I often bought something every day. Usually it was something small, but I just needed to buy it,” she says. “I spent money that I got for my birthday, and when I was short of cash, I borrowed money from friends or my parents. When I couldn’t go shopping, I felt anxious. Then one day, my parents just looked at all the stuff in my room and said, ‘This is crazy!’ I knew they were right. I needed some big changes in my life.” Alison now gets help with her problem and feels she has changed. She no longer thinks she’s a shopaholic. “When I want to buy something in a shop, I ask myself two questions,” she says, “Do I need it? Can I afford it? The answer to both questions is usually ‘no’, so I walk away. It’s great!” 31. What do experts say about shopaholics? A Shopaholics feel sad when they are shopping. B. Shopaholics soon feel unhappy after they have bought something. C. Shopaholics feel more excited than other people when they shop. D. Shopping is the only way shopaholics can feel happy. 32. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refers to ________. A. psychologists B. doctors C. Alison’s parents D. Alison’s friends 33. Which word can best describe Alison’s feeling at the end of the passage? A. Glad. B. Worried. C. Embarrassed. D. Moved. 34. The best title for the passage above might be ________. A. Shop Till You Drop! B. Shopping Makes Me Happy! C. You’d Better Shop Less! D. I Can Stop Shopping Now! 35. What is the author’s attitude towards shopaholics? A. Supportive. B. Disapproving. C. Indifferent. D. Respectful. （C） Many kids say they don’t like the taste of brassicas (芥属植物) — a group of vegetables that includes broccoli and cabbage. Now scientists think that there could be a good reason for those so-called “picky” eating habits of kids that drive mothers crazy. When chemicals in brassicas mix with some people’s saliva (唾液), they give out bad-smelling smells in the mouth. The study found that the more bad-smelling smells a child’s mouth produces, the more they dislike the food. But why do some people’s mouths make more of these smells than other people’s mouths? To find out, the team collected saliva samples from 98 pairs of parents and children. Every person’s saliva has a microbiome (菌群) in it. The researchers believe this determines how much of the gases are given out when a person eats the vegetables. Maybe our picky eaters are simply those who have the microbiome that increases smell of chemicals. The team mixed samples of the adults’ and children’s saliva with powdered (研成粉的) broccoli. They found that people who were related to each other produced almost the same amounts of the smelly chemicals. Though parents and their children tended to produce similar levels, the parents didn’t mind the taste of brassicas as much as their kids did. The adults may have gotten used to it over time. Experts suggest many food dislikes can be overcome with repeated exposure. This means a picky eater may come to enjoy food they avoid if they try it enough times. Say your child hates cabbage — if you offer them cabbage enough times, in different forms, they may come to enjoy it in the end. What’s more, children learn by observation. If they see you eating a balanced mix of healthy foods, they’ll be more likely to follow. However, watching you eating lots of soda, snack foods, and dessert will make them wonder why they can’t do the same. 36. What leads to kids’ dislike for broccoli according to the text? A. The unhealthy eating habits. B. Mother’s bad cooking. C. Unpleasant smells in mouths. D. Broccoli’s bad smell. 37. What can we learn about “microbiomes” according to Paragraph 3? A.

However, there’s still a group of people who believe that going eco-friendly is only a short-term fashion and it isn’t going to last long. Many environmental organizations can prove that going eco-friendly is not only a fashion that lasts for a few months but a trend. These organizations pay close attention to different green causes and hold activities to increase people’s awareness on environmental problems. The use of sustainable products like bamboo straws and electric cars is another evidence to show going eco-friendly isn’t a show. The customers are willing to buy such products, and more and more companies invest money in the production. Starbucks gives their customers discounts if they bring their own bottles for drinks. The efforts that are made by companies and customers show a change in the attitudes of people towards taking a sustainable lifestyle. Meanwhile, some other people hold the view that people who take eco-friendly methods just want to improve their own image. They won’t keep the lifestyle for a long time. For example, some people post videos on the Internet and pretend they live in a zero-waste life. However, going eco-friendly isn’t a kind of fashion or a way to get others’ attention. For those who follow their zero-waste lifestyles over years, it’s about a promise that can only come with a true change in attitudes towards caring for the earth. What’s worse, some customers go eco-friendly only because they think popular. Today buying recycled clothes is highly encouraged. It’s common to walk past the shops that claim to sell clothing made from recycled materials. However, many companies use only a small number of recycled materials, as low as 1%, to make their “eco-friendly” clothes. A lot of customers are cheated by the advertisements of such big companies. All of these suggest that going eco-friendly is all about looking the part, and nothing more. The call to save the earth seems to remain for a while. It’s hoped that all the efforts for environmental protection will go a long way so that our future generations can have a better living environment. 41.
